An annual part of VC's fresh-
man reception is the selection
of a Mr. Freshman and Miss
Freshie. Here is this year's frosh
royally, Gwen-Anne Miller, last
year's Miss Toronto cheerlead-
er, and Stephen Dalnoki, a re-
cent arrlTal to Canada from
Europe.
Last week-end saw another group
of high sc4iool students enter uni-
versity and become Varsity types.
Victoria College and Trinity College
had their freshmen week-ends on
Saturday and Sunday, while Uni-
versity College waited until Monday
and Tuesday to introduce the neo-
phytes to the campus.
The freshies started out the school
year by invading such male slrong-
(lolds as Hart House and Strachan
Hall at Trinity. Co-eds from Victor-
ia and Trinity were led on a torn- of
Hart House by the warden and his
staff. In past yeai-s the Vic freshies
have been taken on a tour of the
House but this was the first year
for the Trinity co-eds.
The City of 1-oronlo Police ar
rived at Vic this year about twenty
minutes aiter a very quiet snake
dance that stopped two street cars
for a matter of seconds and wan-
dered decently along the sidewalks
of Bloor street so as not to hinder
traffic. Two motorcycles buzzed
back and fortli on Charles Street (a
one-way street) while tired fresh-
men stood and wondeied what they
had done to wairant such an honor
guard.
Bloops and hats were the fashion
this year. Vic gave the freshmen
scarlet and gold caps called beanies,
similar to last year's blue and white
bloops. U.C. had their red and
white bloops, and the engineers
have their engineering hats which
were introduced to the campus last
year. St. Mike's claim that they
were the original hat men on the
campus with their good quality dou-
ble blue caps.
The seniors at U.C. went to the
stables of one of Toronto's larger
dairies to scrounge pieces of har-
ness, lamps, and other non-inflam-
mable articles for the big barn
dance in the J.CJl. last night. For
once the students can call the com-
mon room a bam without being bit-
ter.
St. Mike's did not have a fresh-
men week-end and will have the
usual ■■hell week" in the first part
of October.
The engineers' reception for the
new class will get under way on
Monday with a tour of the Skule
buildings. The Lady Godiva Memor-
ial band will serenade the freshmen
on the front campus at 1:45 pjn,
with several of their usual touctilng
renditions. Later the Freshmen will
attend a dance at the Drill Hall on
St. George Street <on showhig their
A.T.L. cards) where they will meet
freshies from other parts of the
university.

dian University Students. The conference was held from
September 11 to 14 at the University of Western Ontario
at London.

During Meet
' Beventy-five students l^rom slx-
<een different countries cajne to-
gether near Ottawa this summer for
lour weeks, at the fourth Inter-
national Student Service summer
seminar.
Subject of the seminar, held dur
Ing the month of August, was "The
Needs and Contributions of East
and West." Tlirough an intensive
series of lectures and discussions
lasting from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
most days, the students received an
introduction into the history, poll
tical structures, economics and cul
tures of Asia and Canada.
Some of the countries represent
at the seminar were Canada and
(Hie United States. Pakistan. India
and Ceylon, Germany. Finland,
Denmark, Holland, Belgium, Prance
ftnd Israel.
Jean de Margerie, fifth year
medical student at Laval Uni-
versity, was elected the new Presi-
dent of NFCUS.
The University of Toronto was
represented at the conference by
Syd Wax, President of the local stu-
dent council; Graeme Ferguson,
Chairman of the SAC External Af-
fairs Commission; George Morrison,
vice-president of Ail Varsity Aid
last year, Joan Presant, chairman
of the local NFOUS committee,
and Peter Alley, chaii-man of the
local International Student Service.
By a unanimous vote the Uni-
versity of Toronto elected to take
over the NFCUS International Acti-
vities Commission <IAC). The pur-
pose of lAC is to vote Canadian
student opinion on international
student levels and to be the souixe
of contact between Canada's Na-
tional Student Organization with
other national student unions.
A continual source of controversy
at the conference was the report of
Dennis Lazure on the lAC's work
during the past year. Of primary
interest was the Communist-domin-
ated International Union of Stu-
dents executive council meeting held
in Warsaw this past summer, which
Lazure attended as an observer.
Lazure told the NFCUS delegates
that the lUS council had adopted a
more conciliatory attitude to the
western unions and their gi-ievances
with the lUS. He said that a door
sliould be left open for possible af-
filiation with rus and he reported
that the lUS had agreed to meet
the western unions not already af-
filiated in a conference this fall to
discuss possible western affiliation
with I US.
On the question of Federal Aid
to education, the NPCUSr dele-
gates voted to extend their appreci-
ation to the federal government for
their recent grants. They also man-
dated the national executive to take
what steps were necessary to press
the federal and provincial govern-
ments for complete Implementation
of the Massey Report particularly
in regard to the increased number
of scholarships.

In tomorrow's Varsity, there will
be a special section giving full cov-
erage of the NFCUS conference.

VOL. 1J<XI No. 1 THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO Thursday, September 27, 1951
President Smith, Students
Feel Fee Raise Warranted
Pee increases of 29 to 70. dollars
for University of Toronto students
were announced this summer by
President Sidney Smith.
The decision to increase fees, as
other Canadian ' universities have
done, was forced on the Board of
Governors by new salary scales and
higher operating costs, said Dr.
Smith. "Yet even the higher fees
that you pay cover less than one-
third of the cost of your Univer-
sity courses." he added.
Fourth year Med's fees are high-
est ($529) with Dentistry, Engin-
eering and Architecture not far
behind.
In the President's Opening Ad-
dress yesterday he explained that
the university has received excel-
lent support from private individu-
als and public corporations, but
with Increasing cost of yearly
operatioirs. finances have been
stretched to the limit.
Mary Prior, III OT, comments,
"In view of the fact that the Fed-
eral government has granted the
university a sum of approximately
$110 per student, I do not feel that
an increase in tlie fees was neces-
sary." Bike Benazon. II University
College, replied, "I certainly feel
it was justified, sad as the news
was, when one considers the spii'al-
ling cost of living."
Several Meds students voiced the
opinion that studies were going to
suffer even more in the future be-
cause students will have to spend
more time in part-time jobs dur-
ing the year to earn enough to
stay at college. This, they went on
to say, would lower the graduate
standard.
Many students felt that the fee
rise was "inevitable" and that the
only course will be to "pay up".
In his opening address yesterday afternoon, President
Sidney Sniitii credited the fee rise and the Dominion grant
to universities with ending a "veritable nightmare of trying:
to stretch inadequate funds to meet soaring university ex-
penses."
"In common with every other Canadian university, we
were obliged to increase tuition costs this year," Dr. Smith
said, and added that the step was taken with "great regret
and misgiving".
If...
. . . we had a Student Union build-
ing, I would not have gone into
Hart House today to eat my lunch.

MASTHEAD
MEETING
A masthead meeting will be held
at 5 p.m. today in the editorial of-
fice.
'"However," he continued, "even'
the higher fees the students pay
covers less than one-third of the
cost of university courses."
Dr. Smith sketched the dilemma
which faced the university this
spring. Contributions from cam
paiffus fsuch as the Varsity Build-
ing campaign) cannot be maintain-
ed year in and year out. The On-
tario government has increased its
annual grant during the recent
years, but there are limits to prO'
vinclal revenues.
Then the ZX>minion Government
announced its decision to provide
financial assistance to all Canadian
universities.
"I cannot spcaJc too warmly of the
relief and encouragement that we
feel by reason of this decision," the
President said. "It recognizes and

opening address can be found on

emphasizes a salient fact — that not
only the community and the prov-
ince, but the nation as a whole,
has a stake in the welfare of our
institutions of higher learning."
He hoped to see Implemented
within one year the establishment
of fellowships, scholarships, and
bursaries on a national scale. The
Federal Government announced at
the same time as the grant that
it was ready to consider such a
scheme, in order to extend to good
students the opportunity for higher
education.
Dr. Smith also expressed the "ut-
jnost concern" for the effect of the
rising cost of Uving on the mem-
bers of the academic and adminis-
trative staff. "It is an understate-
ment that university employees have
never been, and are not now. In the
lap of luxury." he said, and added
that the salary increases that were
established last January are well on
the way to behig swallowed up by
rising costs.
No Sex
In Varsity
Have you noticed a student
about the campus, maybe he was
tall, or mayl>e short; maybe he was
well dressed, more likely not; may-
be he was a "she", maybe not. At
any rate if you have seen this stu-
dent you will remember the alert-
ness, the inquisitiveness in his eya
even if you did not see the pencil
or camera which is ever in hand.
If you have, this was probably
one of The Varsity staff on the
pleasant task of interviewing a
blonde freshie or hot on the traU
of a scoop which will make down-
town papers lower their heads hi
shame.
Anyway, the point is that if
you're Interested in being pleasant-
ly harassed, disturbed, and in other
ways emotionally and physically
upset, The Varsity is the place for
you.
Each year the graduates leava
vacancies to be filled on The Varsity
staff. That doesn't mean you havs
to have experience to join the
staff; just an interest in journal-
ism. There are many departments
on the paper: for the terse-spoken
student there is news reporting: or
If you are the adjective type, may-
be feature writing is your Una.

Viewing, photography and sports
supply a variety of fields. We even
have a morgue if you're so inclined.
The Varsity news office is in
room 78, University College base-
ment and Is open dully from 10 a.m.
'til late evening.
We can't promise blonde-chasing
to all, and scoops are of your own-
making, but we can guarantee a
harassed air. fun, a tremendous
improvement in your English, and,
if you try hard enough, ulcers.

For Candy, Cigarets
Book Bargains?
Seek SAC Exchange
For the student whose budget
won't cover new texts and for all
those with books gathering un-
profitable dust in the attic, the
Students' Administrative Council
Book Exchange provides an eco-
nomical solution. With a little pa-
tience, bargains can be found at as
much as half the original price of
many books, and the most special-
ized texts can be sold.
The Book Exchange, located at
119 St. George, is a non-profit pay-
ing organ of the SAC, and is run
by the students under a manager
appointed by and responsible to the
jSAC. The Exchange collects ten
per cent of the price of each book
sold, but this fee Is used only to
meet such expenses as rent and sal-
aries.
Open from 9 a.m. until 5:30 p,m,
on weekdays, and until 12:30 p.m.
on Saturdays, the Exchange, which
resumed business operations this
Monday, will be operating for five
or six weeks.
At present, It is estimated that
the Exchange has over 2,000 books
in stock, but most of these are in
the transient class, and students
with books to sell are urged to
bring them In immediately, as the
demand is very heavy in the first
two weeks of term.
When a book is sold, the amount
of the sale is credited to the ac-
count of its original owner, and
this money can be collected on
dates which will be well advertised
in The Varsity. Any booics that are
not sold may be left at the Ex-
change for possible sale next year,
or the owner can retrieve his un-
popular merchandise.
Book Exchange officials suggest
that students buy their second
ter mbooks now, as many have been
brought in, and if the matter is
neglected until January, the Ex-
change will be closed and only the
extravagance of new books will be
possible.
Books are usually sold for about
75% of the original price depend-
ing on the condition. The Exchange
officials can help doubtful sellers
settle on a reasonable price.
The Exchange specializes in per-
sonal attentions, such as helping
students choose the right books for
their courses. There are directories
available for all faculties and the
books are grouped on the shelves
according to subjects.
There are a large number of
books on every subject from Hebrew
to cookery, and such gems as
President Sidney Smith's personal
encyclopaedia can be picked up for
a reasonable sum.
Students in the Old Pass Course
and the New General Course are
advised not to give up hope about
disposing of old books or buying
eecond hand ones. Thoughtful pro-
fessors have in many cases assign-
ed texts that have been in circula-
tion for years in various courses, or
stagnating on the shelves of the
Exchange. This revival may cause
the settling of some very old ac-
counts on the Homecoming Week-
end.
Students will not receive any dis-
counts on texts purchased at the
University Bookstore this year.
The withdrawal of the 5% discount
on cash sales was announced about
two weeks ago by Mr, Alex Ran-
kin, General Manager of the Uni-
versity of Toronto Press.
Miss MacMnrray, Manager of the
Bookstore, was not aware of the
reasons for this change of policy.
Mr. Rankin is out of town and not
available for comment,
Two years ago the University
Bookstore made it possible for stu-
dents to make cash purchases of
texts at a 10% discount. Three
publishers, notable among them the
Macmillan Company of Canada,
objected strenuously to this policy
and refused to supply books while
the discount was continued. The
10%, discount continued till the
end of the year.
Last year, however, the discount
was decreased to 5% on all cash
sales. This policy was continued
till Sept. 10 of this year when Mr.
Rankin ordered all discounts to be
stopped.
Meanwhile, Coles' continues to
give a 20% discount on all new stu-
dent texts.
In addition to the usual iexts,
microscopes, and stationery, the
University Bookstore is sporting
brand-new cigarette, soft drinks
and candy machines. "There have
been so many requests by the ^Is,"
Miss MacMurray explained, tot
"there is no women's Hart House
where they can buy these things."
So far there had been no candy-
smudges on the books, she said.
The system of ordering books was
changed very slightly from last
year. There are no orders to be
filled out except for stationery and
the books are to be taken direcUy
to the cashier. In this way the
Bookstore hopes to speed up its
service, said Miss MacMurray.

After several hurried meetings
the Blue and White skeleton execu-
tive has drafted a full and varied
season of events, aimed at forward-
ing the new three-fold policy of the
Society.
These aims aae primarily to pro-
mote a university consciousness; to
iifurther intra -university relations
on an individual student level; and
to stimulate interest in the cultural
facilities available outside the Uni-
versity campus.
The events this year will closely
follow those of preceding years with
the possible omission of a pep rally.
There will be football weekends,
football dances, an Art Gallery
Night and a Christmas Tree. The
Society also promises a bigger and
better Homecoming Weekend, A
new feature of the program will be
a Museum Night, to be arranged
early in the spring.
Bloops will be back this year,
along with a new and entirely dif-
ferent item, which Blue and White
Society officials refuse to disclose
at present.
The Society has put out a call for
help, asking interested persons to
attend their first meeting in Room
1 in Trinity College at 1 p.m. to-
day. "We need anyone with a touch
of the abnormal and a flair for
promoting AU-Varsity spirit," says
its officials.

By FRANK MOBITSUGU
Tlie initial column of a new series is always a foitnidable task for
the coiiunnist, no matter how eager he may be. He wants to find the
striking opening, the memorable phrase, the tinghng hyperbole, to catch
the reader's mind and have him banging his fists at the door for more.
But originality takes time and sweat and imagination, and the dread
deadline draws near.
So to a simpler approach. I will start off this regular column on
movies with a What and Why. And then, instead of trying to sound
arty, start talking about movies instead.
Like all new editors, the new Editor ot The Varsity has some tricks
In his bag. One is to be a consistent and definitive critical reporting of
movies. To get an attitude that readers will come to recognize and be
able to use as a gauge, a one-man column on movies will appear in
these pages at least twice weekly, i will be the one man. The other
occupant of this space will be the Drahma Critic,
The first purpose of this column Is to give some idea of what
pictures are around that might be worth spending an evening or a
lecture-free afternoon at. And I, following more senior and proven
movie critics, like the movies and get mad or nasty about some movies
only because I want them to be as good as they can be, within their
scope and intention.
I don't expect every movie to be a HAMLET or a BICYCLE THIEP
as some practising critics seem to. I feel, for instance, that MA AND PA
KETTLE pictures have a place. Perhaps more satisfying pictures might
be made from the KETTLE- got*.en gains.
♦ * *
To be specific, full-scale reviews, as well as some capsule ones, of
"important" pictures will start in the next column. TAKE CARE OB!
MY LITTI^ GIRL and BITTER RICE are ons-the priority list.
But I can't resist passing comment on the expeiisive MGM version
of SHOWBOAT. This long-playing extravaganza wheezes along at 33
and one-third RPM too often. 'It is not news now that William
Warfield's basso rendition of Ol' Man River, is an exciting film event,
(Although my companion complained about not being able to see him
because of the fog-laden Mississippi set.) There is competence shown
by Ava Gardner as Julie who sings, the dancing Champions, Joe E,
Brown and Agnes Moorhead. But the film carries itself only because
the Kern -Hammers tein tunes are imperishable despite inept work by,
the principals, Kathryn Grayson and Howard Keel. As Magnolia and
Ravenal. their singing is pretty poor, but at the interviils when they
are forced to "act," It is even harder to resist the impulse to hiss and
hoot and giggle. They take themselves so seriously.
Jose Ferrer's CYRANO DE BERGERAC is something absolutely
different. This tremendous one-man show is wending its way through
the neighborhood houses now, and even the pop-corn munchers and
the old ladies who hoarsely ask "What did he say?" are subdued by the
sweep of Ferrer having a ball with the delightful Rostand verse.
It is true that the supporting players are run-of-the mill, but
perhaps their lack of distinction enhances rather than hinders Ferrer's
swashbuckling and yet often subtle Cyrano. Only when Olivier has
played Shakespeare, has the screen provided a performance so full of
command and excitement.
Double bills can be like ptomaine poisoning. You take a beating
without much warning. A case in point was having a cheaply-made
British import, THE PAPER GALLOWS, inflicted upon the CYRANO
audience. I have forgotten the director's name as well as that of the
three principals. Purportedly a suspense-filled mystery drama, the
director resorts to a bag of shoddy and obvious tactics to keep up the
suspense. He shocks you with sudden crescendos of Wagnerian music
and sudden closeups which lead to nothing. This is cheating and
dishonesty camouflagmg a lack of imagination and idea.
The acting was so deplorable, it was worse than the Grayson-Keel
scenes in SHOWBOAT. The audience laughed and laughed as the
heroine stood in danger of murder while the hero busied himself with
self- torment and wild-goose chases.
You can easily feel that the theatre manager should be strung up
for exposing you to a lemon like THE PAPER GALLOWS. But at the
same theatres this week, the double bill is of different aspect. Gabriel
Pascal's ornate production of Bernard Shaw's CAESAR AND
CLEOPATRA is coupled with Carol (Fallen Idol, Third Man) Reed's
THE WAY AHEAD. There can be no boredom there.

The New Principal
Stick Around
"My generation of students were
ghy. We never spoke to women
students unless our official chap-
eron was present. The present
g^exatipn has none of the inhibi-
tiqls we had." Thus does the new
principal of University College,
Professor F. A. C. Jeanneret, un-
derline his enthusiasm for the
present generation.
A kindly dignified man with grey-
ing hair and warm, intelligent
eyes. Principal Jeanneret takes
over the leadership of University
College following Dr. W. R. Tay-
lor who died suddenly last Febru-
ary.
The new principal's association
■with the college he now heads
dates back to 1908 when he enter-
ed the college as a Freshman.
Since that time he has never sever-
ed his connection with U.C., join-
ing the staff a year after gradua-
tion, and filling the positions of
college registrar, lecturer in
French, and finally becoming
head of the French Department in
1926, a position he will continue
to fill.
Doring this time he has been
able to teach for a year at Upper
Canada College, study at the Sor-
bonne in Paris, and both study and
lecture at the University of Chi-
cago. His recipe for becoming a
principal is to "just stick around
long enough and anything may
happen." Particularly if your list
of achievements is as long as his.
■ Aside from the shyness, Dr.
Jeanneret sees very little differ-
ence in students of his own year
and those he now teaches. Com-
menting on the apparent youthful-
^ss of the new crop of freshmen,
he denies any change in age levels.
"First year students have always
looked very young."
One of the things he most ad-
mires in the present generation is
their directness. "There seems
to be more real honesty now,
though we used to have long dis-
cussions in my day when we
would attack controversial ques-
tions, particularly on religion, in
a hammer and tong fashion." As
far as polities were concerned,
"socialism was only whispered,
and a liberal was as red as you
could get."
Charges made today against the
universities as "hot-beds" of com-
munism are ridiculous. Principal
Jeanneret feels. "Young students
By PEARL PARNES
are naturally interested in ad-
vanced ideas, politically and oth-
erwise." He pointed out that
most criticism of universities is
contradictory and thus self-de-
stroying, making accusations al-
ternately of radicalism and re-
action.
A serious collector of fine old
editions, Principal Jeanneret is
the proud possessor of 70 volumes
of 1785 edition of Voltaire, pur-
chased from a collection of Pa-
pineau, the French-Canadian re-
bel. One of his treasures is a rare
first edition, one of three existing
copies, of Corneille's works, pub-
lished in 1644, which he discovered
hi an old book shop in Toronto. A
very valuable find, the bookseller
told Dr. Jeanneret, "If it's worth
40 cents to you. take it."
Alternate president and vice-
president of the "Visites Inter-
provinciales," Prhicipal Jeanner-
et has a deep love for the French-
Canadians. For many years he di-
rected the Ontario Department of
Education school for teachers at
Quebec City, one of the first real
contacts of Ontario teachers with
the French-Canadian culture. A
reproduction of Morrice's "Ferry
at Quebec" which hangs above his
desk recalls for the principal his
first glimpse of Quebec when he
was just 17 years old.
*'The scene has something sym-
bolic about it for me," he remem-
bers. "I first saw Quebec when
the sun was setting behind the
beautiful old buildings of the town,
in one of the loveliest sights I have
seen. Quebec has been in my sys-
tem ever since." The scene made
an indelible imprint on his life,
for he became thrilled with the
romance of Quebec and has main-
tained close contact with his
friends of French Canada. His
work has been recognized by La-
val University with the honorary
degree of Litt. D. He has also
been made an officer of the
Academy of the Repubhc of
Prance.
Centre-half of the old Berlin
Rangers when that team won the
Canadian soccer championship.
Principal Jeanneret is a strong
supporter of athletics. "I believe
every student should take part in
some game if he is physically
able." He also supports student
participation in extra-curricular
activities, so long as the student
remembers that his primary busi-
ness is study,
"In my years as professor, many
students have told me that they
regretted not taking their studies
seriously enough. Only one ever
regretted having been too ser-
ious."
His many years in the Univer-
sity, during which time he saw
classmates and students rise to
important positions in their own
fields, and experienced the heart-
break of seeing them go to their
deaths in two world wars, along
with his own son, have given Prin-
cipal Jeanneret a deep under-
standing of and sympathy with
the dreams, and ambitions of his
students.
A close friendship, both social-
ly and professionally with the pro-
fessors of the other arts colleges,
to ensure a healthy rivalry and
good sportsmanship, and a firm,
enthusiastic backing of his own
staff have given Professor Jeanner
et the courage to accept this new
job. His aim is to keep University
College "liberal, broad, independ-
ent, free from bias and prejudice,
loyal, international in outlook and
yet proudly and staunchly Cana-
dian."
Emphasize Classics
For Arts Philistines
Jeanneret's Formula
A former Modern Language professor came out with a
strong- plea for greater emphasis on the Classics when Prin-
cipal Jeanneret of University College gave his first Convoca-
tion Address Tuesday night.
Principal Jeanneret gave the address in Convocation Hall
shortly after he had been invested in the office by University
President Sidney Smith. He succeeds Dr. W. R. 'Taylor, who
died last spring.
College of Art
Moves Seniors
To Old Estate
The senior students of the On-
tario College of Art will be mov-
ed to Glendon Hall on Bayview
Avenue by the end of the year,
said Art College Principal L. A. C.
Panton recently. The junior stu-
dents will still be accommodated
in the present school, but they will
fill it to capacity.
The Art College will move into
the main buildUig only at Glendon
Hall. The rest of the estate will
still be left to the professional de-
partments which were using it
last year.
The speaker expressed particular
concern for "Philistines" in honor
courses other than Classics, and in
the new General Course. "They may
have missed the thorough discipline
of early language training in Greek
and Latin," he said, "but why
should they be deprived of an ac-
quaintance with the highest forms
of intellectual and aesthetic
achievement. If only through the
medium of translation?"
The new principal then suggest-
ed that courses in Greek and Latin
literature (such as are now offered
by the Classics department to stu-
dents in English _ Language and
Literature) should'be made avail-
able to students in most of the
other departments.
"Students In every field might be
provided with that invaluable men-
tal di.^cipline that comes from the
careful reading of the gi-eat Greek
philosophers and historians," he
said.
Principal Jeanneret also com-
mented on the place of the Arts
College in the face of ever-increas-
ing mechanization, and concluded
that "it is more than ever incum-
bent on the Arts College to provide
its students with a liberalizhig edu-
cation."
He added that there can be no
question as to the object of the Arts
College; whether it is intellectual
culture or technical training. Tliere
is a place for technical and voca-
tional trainmg, but that place is
not the Arts Colege. he said.
"The interest of the individual
student must never be lost sight of
in this age of mass production."
the UC head warned, and added.
"Democracy is in the midst of a
great moral, intellectual and spii it-
ual crisis and requires — as never
before — the intelectual honesty,
the love of truth, the ability to
think clearly and the sense of
moral values of highly disciplined
leaders."

LUES WIN FIRST TWO
Rain Falls
As Varsity
Wins 26 0
Playing at Guelfdi In the rain
for the fourth year in succession,
the Senior football Blues literally
ran over the OAC Aggies and piled
up a 2o-0 count in their annual
exhibition game last Saturday af-
ternoon. Insistent rain squalls kept
the Blue attack, on the ground, and
the A'lf^ie defence proved incapable
of coping with the situation.
Tlie Guelph squad could hardly
be Qescribed as a real test for the
Blues this season, and ball carriers
like Bill Bewley, Bob Dale and
Steve Oneschuck ran for substan-
tial gains at nearly every try. It
took the Aggies till late in the
third quarter to penetrate into Blue
territory, and there, too proud to
kick for a single, they were stopped
on the .Varsity ten yard line. ■
Tbh sortie into enemy territory
was the only defensive lap on the
part of the Blues during the whole
game. Even pass defence, usually a
weak point on the part of any team
this early in the season, was not
too weak on the part of the Blues.
Two interceptions by Bill McFar-
lane and an interception coupled
with a pleasing 65 yard run that
was ca'led back because of inter-
ference by Bob Riimball served to
halt any Aggie hopes of hitting pay
lift.
Probably the most pleasant sur-
prises of the game were the runnin g
tt young Bob Dale, a product oi
Lawrence Park Collegiate, who ap-
Kears more than capable of filling
le shoes of last year's Gerry
Washington, and the showing of

The concensus among the working members of the

lawyers will be down to the Balmy Beach clubhouse tonight

by Bill Bewley, After driving right
down the field in the second quar-
ter, the Blues sent Bill McPavlane
over on an end sweep from 5 yards
out. Steve Oneschuck kicked the
extra point,
Al Haig got into the scoring col-
umn with a single in the third
quarter and a long touchdown run
by Steve Oneschuck in the final
stanza completed the scoring. The
game ended in a terrific downpour
that all but drowned the faithful
few spectators remaining.

Speahing of Sp»ri
Bf BRUCE MACDONALD
The 1951 edition of the Varsity Blues thrilled a crowd
of shivering spectators yesterday and surprised a group of
so-called experts who were firmly entrenched in the most
comfortable press box in Canada by bumping off the
Beaches.
Highlighted by the Bewley to Haig touchdown play
which put the Blues on the road to victory (and by the way
Mr, Lawson, that was about as sweet a bit of quarterbacking
as we have seen) that caught the Beaches completely off
the track, the game was a sight for sore Varsity eyes,
We thought the Blue line compared favourably to what
the opposition had to offer. In fact, Varsity blocking assign
ments were carried out with a thoroughness at times that
made the Beaches look like something less than a profes
sional club,
However, that game did not win the Yates Cup. and if
reports emanating from London. Ontario and vicinity are
to be believed, it may be that Western is again the team to
beat. From all reports on pre-season performances, th
Mustangs have the strongest line in the league. For our
money, the team with the strongest line in the league is the
team to beat
If the Varsity front wall can match that of the Mus,
tangs, the Blues are going to cause a lot of headaches in
the Intercollegiate loop this fall. With running backs like
Bobby Dale, Bill Bewley (he also throws a pass), and Steve
Oneschuck to tote that pigskin, the Blues have developed
their most potent ground attack in several seasons. What
they have to offer in the way of an aerial offensive is yet
to be discovered

leges and faculties have entries
in all fields of sport, whereas the
smaller ones only have entries in
the tournaments, and the team

Each sport m Interfaculty com-
petition has its own trophy and
there is a trophy for the college
or faculty winning the most events
in all competitions. This is called
the Reed High Point Trophy, and
points for it are awarded so that
smaller colleges and faculties re-
ceive more points than the larg-
er for doing the same thing. In
this way, the smaller schools have
an equal chance at the trophy.
Last year, the Reed trophy race
was very close. The Faculty of
Forestry, largely on the strength
of their championship football
team took the trophy with 11,857
points. University College was a
close second with 11.745 and SPS
was tliird with 10,514. Points are
accumulated, by winning cham-
pionships in sports, by winning
group titles in the various leagues,,
and by the number of entries in
different sports in proportion to the
enrolment.
The Tennis and Golf tournaments
will be held next week. In the
Senior tournaments, each college
faculty is limited to eight en-
tries, to be chosen by the Athlet-
ic rep. The junior events are op-

this year, loses to a green college
team that last year scored about
as many points as you could count
on your fingers, even the riiost in-
nocent of sportswriters suspect
something sinister.
Showing a modicum of offensive
strength, greatly improved defen*
sive football, and marvelous dis-
play of opportunism, the Blues edg-
ed the ORPU squad by one touch-
down.
The first Varsity major was scor-i
ed after Bill Bewly intercepted ona< '
of Gerry Tuttle's passes on the
Beach 47. Bewley for 8 yards. Bob
Dale for 17, and Oneschuk for 9
took play to Beach's 13. On the
next play — the fourth after the in-
terception— Oneschuk crashed over
Beaches left tackle to 50 the rest
of the way for the major. Bewly
missed the convert.
Beaches defensive liackfield look-
ed lazy on this occasion a^ on sev-
eral others. This does not detract
from the game played by Oneschulc
or the rest of the team, but it was
still obvious that Beaches knew It
was only an exhibition game.
The second TD was a recovery
of a fumble behind Beaches goal-
line. When he went back he fumbl-
ed it trying to pick it up and
Brown pounced on it for a score.
The last score, with about five
minutes to go. oc-urred when Howie
French fumbled the snap as he
stood back to kick on hLs own 40.
Ray Yakasovitch ploughed through
to recover it. Bewly ran twenty
yards on the next play. Then Var-
sity, behind 11-10 at the time, exe-
cuted the best, or at least the most
pleasing play of the game. Quarter-
back Lawson handed off to Bewly
as if for another end run. Once
around the end. Bill dropped backi
and fired a pass to Al Haig, whd,
was well beyond the deepest de-
fender. The end run pass Is a piay
that lias not been used enough by
Canadian clubs. We have occasion-
ally seen it done off a pitch-out,
but never before off a hand-off.
Varsity blocked poorly at first,
but after Bewley'b pass interception
they picked right up where they
left off at OAC. If their stellar
halfbacks hke Dale, Bewley, Gum-
ball, McFarlane, and McPadden can
run around the big Beach line, the
might maul the intercollegiate op-
position. They have yet to show
that they have a pass attack. Quar-
erback OUie Mandryk completed
only one pass, good for 21 yards
including a nice run by Jim Bell.
Beaches outshone the Blues sta-
tistically, but lacking the scoring
punch. Tuttle completed eight
passes for 117 yards, and led the
team to a 327 yard total offense.
Of their 185 yards on the ground,
ht halfback Ralph Pulley gained
S3. For Varsity Bobby Dale, fresh-
man star from Lawrence Park raa
the most, 48 yards. Blues' total rush-
ing was 146, total offence, 187. X
Haig'a kicking, as usual, was tht^

the one. They scored again right

only time in the game, 10-5. Ed

Building
"Three years ago the University

pSd^ for funds to underwrite a
building program. The reason for
doing so was very simple — we
could not keep first-rate people on
the staff without giving them the
tools for their jobs.
"The professors were the first
persons to plead for adequate fa-
cilities, space and equipment.
"I mention this because I once
saw in print the extraordinary
statement that the building pro-
gram was the outcome of the
vainglory of the administration. I
assure you that was not the case.
Tlie additional facilities were need-
ed for, and requested by, the pro-
fessors."

"I am not unaware of the obser-

that, it is a \\.»ove »iiu..^y, imie
and etfort to teach women in the
universities. One hears the ques-
tion: 'What is the use of educating
a woman, when as soon as she mar-
ries she will likely get married?'
■'To me this question is as stupid
as it is ridiculous. What if a woman
does marry as soon as she gradu-
ates? Is that a loss to the home, the
community or the nation? Better
educated husbands and wives,
fathers and mothers, will make for
a better society.
"There are few professions in
which women may not play roles
comparable to those of men. It is
the task of universities to help
women to develop themselves and
to take their places in our complex
society.
"By virtue of special knowledge
and interest, and in many ways not
open to men graduates, university
women can influence and improve
our society, whether it be at the
community, the provincial or the
national level.
"In all honesty, however, I am
compelled to question whether the
masculine element, while paying
lip-service to the place of women
in professions, commerce, industry
and poUtics, is always prepared to
welcome women and to work with
them. To my mind that is a very
serious problem, the solution of
which will have a direct bearing on

The Varsity staff is truly "post-war." In
itself this is unimportant, Yet it is merely
a reflection of what has become a fact

It would be unfair (and probably un-
wise) to compare this new crop of young
people with the veterans. Their immediate
problems are not the problems that have

is their outlook in any way the same.

designed to indoctrinate rather than teach,

to their thinking. It is almost as if they
were looking for confirmation for pre-
conceived answers, rather than for new
ways to criticise old ideas, and for new
and stimulating ideas to develop.
We mention these things not to indict,
but rather as an observation, an observa-

which the policies of this paper will be
built in the coming year. There can be
no hard and fast rule, and such general-

Somewhere among the ten thousand
undergraduates in this University there

By MAX PARSONS
I came into town last night to find
things in a great uproar in The Varsity
office. The first night is always a little
hectic.
There are a few new ifaces, and several
old ones. There are also some that are
gone — out into the cruel world. The
Managing Editor (I'm not quite sure that
I will be able to get' used to the idea of
a female in that post — it's unnatural)
and I were chatting about problems. At
the beginning of a Varsity year there are
always about four times as many prob-
lems as anyone thought of anticipating.
While we were there a young freshman
came in and started asking questions
about The Varsity. He was, as the man
says, looking for work.
He'll get it. More than he ever imagin-
ed was possible. When I left that small
dungeon in the basement of University
College sometime later I wondered what
It is that draws them in.
The magic of print, according to the
romantics. There are also a few idealists
floating about who are interested in
changing the course of the world's events.
Even a couple of journalists, if you look
under the piles of copy paper strewn
about the tables.
But there is something more than that
according to the real addict. Most people
come to the University to study. Some of
them get their major education from the
paper. It's screwy, but it works.
Somewhere behind it all there is an
idea, which if developed, is one of the
strong things that keeps people working
into the night bo turn out news and
opinion for other people to glance at and
then use for wrapping fish (or garbarge).
It's a thought that the best way to get
ideas out where they can be some use to
people is to provide them with informa-
tioiT, and with a medium through which
they can blast away at others.
It's not always very tolerant, nor suc-
cessful. There are writing bores, just as
there are talking bores. More axes are
ground every year in print than on all the
carborundum stones in the world. Propa-
ganda and lies and salesmanship flourish
in a mountain of paper and an ocean of
Yet every once and a while in J ib
university press someone comes along with
an idea that may not set the world on
fire, but at least has the merit of being
worth fifteen minutes of someone else's
time. He may even do it well enough to
put his name on it (I've been getting
away with murder for a long time) and
that is a kick.
On this paper, and on hundreds like
it thi'oughout the western world, young
men and women are writing trash and
near trash, which is as much a part of
their education as their Philosophy 4x's
and their Economics 7g's. Tliey are learn-
ing to think in prinu. Some of them are
getting to be dangerous citizens. Most of
them are not and will not be professional
writers. Some are Just along for the ride.
Most come out with at least some of the
effects of their brush with university jour-
nalism marking them.
Last year it took a carload of news-
print to turn out the 100-odd issues of
the paper. That is a lot of trees, no mat-
ter how you arrange them. And all over
that carload of newsprint undergraduates
of this university were venting their
spleen, and hatching their schemes, and
reporting their community.
I was wondering as I came away last
night just what the young man I met
will turn out in the pages of this paper.
The inside dope on Bloops? Or a fast
story on the gal who's editing the NEW
Toike Oike (a nice job too)? Oi- a pungent
account of a VCU meeting? m knows.
About fifty per cent of the people
who come down to The Varsity office to
enquire about working on the paper dis-
appear in a week. Only about twenty-fivp
per cent come back for a second year.
Yet one and all they get something o'ut'"
of it. More people list The Varsity as an
extra-curricular activity in Torontonensis
every year than could possibly get into
that small hole in the Uc basement.
Some smart young thing that comes
into that office in the next few days is
going to turn out to be Editor-in-Chief
in 1954. And if I didn't have so much faith
m human nature, that would be a shock.
On This Page...
This page, which the editors have moved to
the back for easier reading in lectures, on buses
and in similarly confined places, is designed to
present opinion, both from the editors of The
Varsity, and more importantly, from the student
body at large.
Each day we will carry here an article, pref-
erably controversial, contributed by persons who
ordinarily do not write for the paper. If you
have something you've always wanted to get off
your chest, write it down and brmg it in. Or
come in and discuss yom- idea with the editor
first. In any case, the sjiace is yours (try and
keep it under 400 words) and we want those
who have something to say to make full use
of it.
For those who don't run to an article, but
having in equally burning desire to say some-
thing to more than theh: immediate circle of
friends, the page will carry letters. Letters should
be short, and to the point. They must be signed
with the name, course and telephone number of
the writer. In rare instances letters are carried
without a signature, or with a pseudonym, but
even then we must have the name of the writer
on file. No letters will be carried unless we have
the name of the writer.
In a lighter vein is the space to the right.
Traditionally one of the outstanding examples
of undergraduate humour in Canada, The
Champus Cat will lap up contributions that
meet its standard. There have been lean years
recently for the Cat. We refuse to believe this
is the true state of humom- on the campus.
Articles and Cats should be typed, if possible.
Letters should be legible.
Help
Wanted
Several staff positions have not yet been filled.
Reorganization of the former Art, Music and
Drama department has left us without a Drama
Editor and a Music Editor. Also waiting to be
filled is the position of Assistant News Editor.
Although it is Varsity policy to fill such
positions whenever possible fi om the staff, appli-
cations are being considered for the Drama and
Music Editor. A letter, or a jjersonal call on the
Editor will bring more information.
All departments, of course, are taking on new
personnel. Undergraduates from all years, and
particularly from the freshman year, are wel-
come. Experience is not necessary. We train you.
I was in my den Wednesday
night, leafing through Lady Chat-
terton's Lover, when Mrs. Patrick
Fitzpatrick Mavourneen O'Shannon
Mulrooney, my proprietaire, knock-
ed on the door.
"Faith and yez are wanted on the
telephone, Mr. Guignol," she said.
*'Sure 'tis a scandleous and undai-
cent hour of the night for a girl to
be after callin' a respectable yoiin*
man."
When I answered the telephone,
a saccharine-coated voice said, "Do
you know who this is honey?"
"Lonesome Gal?"
"It's Cynthia," said Cynthia. "I'm
trying to talk to you about a lec-
ture I heard this afternoon. Come
right over."
**!" I exclaimed, hanging up.
Dressing carefully, I chose one of
my Bond Street suitings, inserted
my rhinestone discharge button iu
the lapel, put on a pair of hand-
lasted shoes that I had picked up
in a little shop on the Plaza ■ de
Colon in Cordoba, pulled my toque
down over my ears, and got my
custom-built Delahaye out of tho
garage. In a moment I found my-
self knocking on Cynthia's door.
"Come in, the door's open," sang
out Cynthia, employing a range of
an octave arid a half.
To call Cynthia's apartment or-
nate would be like describing Maple
Leaf Gardens as roomy. There were
Bokhara rugs, red velvet hangings,
miniature reproductions in plaster
of Rodin and Maillot, ikons, samo- .
vara, scimitars.
The air was redolent of patchotiy^
surging up in waves from the chalSn
longue where Cynthia reclined
sinuously. One red rose was clutch-
ed in her teeth, and a ten-inch
cigarette holder dangled carelessly^
from her finger-tips. In her other'
hand she fondled a champagne cup,
while a magnum of Lanson was
chilling in a silver bucket beside
her. Theda Bara, at the zenith of
her tragic career, could not have
been more beautifully devastating
than was Cynthia at that moment.

New Parking Oath
To Free Sidewalk
Parking facilities are still at a premium around tha
University of Toronto. The situation is similar to that of
last year, with the University giving out parking tickets

allotting about 85 stickers for student parking in the area
north of Hart House Tower.
Peace At ILast
In Peace Council
The University of Toronto Peace
Council has a completely new ex-
ecutive this fall. This is the result
of an unusual coup carried out
last spring by a number of engin-
eers and other interested students
during the council's annual nom-
inations meeting.
About sixty students, mainly

More Studying
For McGill U
' McolU freshmen this tall were
given a chance to meet their pro-
fessors on an academic footing
without the distraction of hazing,
parties and the usual college rah-
rah, as they returned to the com-
pus a week ahead of other stu-
dents.
The purpose of the new policy Is
to impress upon the fresimien that
the prime occupation of the stu-
dent is studying. McGlll Univer-
sity authorities, alarmed by the
large number of examination fail-
ures last spring, have decided on
the new tack to free freshies from
.the adverse influence of their sen-
iors, who in the past, have been
notable for illustrating that play
need not necessarily come second
to work.
3hi addition, the authorities have
decided to make incompleteed as-
signments a possible reason for
expulsion.
The McGUI authorities hope that
the restrained and gentle intro-
duction to campus life which this
year's freshmen will receive wili
make a lasting' impression.
held in the basement of University
College.
Council President Don Anderson
was engaged in a battle of wits
and constitutional questions and it
was soon apparent that he had
never read the Council's constitu-
tion and couldn't even find one.
When an Engineer produced one
it turned out that anyone could
join for fifty cents without accept-
ing the Stockholm Peace Petition
The reformers then passed the
hat, listed the members as they
joined, and moved a vote of non-
confidence in the executive. Claim-
ing that the meeting had to be
over by two o'clock, Anderson
called for adjournments and, af-
ter recognizing the votes of the
older members, he left the meet-
ing.
The engineers then carried on
with the nomination meeting, and
planned for the elections the fol-
lowing week. A few days later
the old Peace Council had an elec-
tion of Its own and replaced Meds-
man Anderson as chaiiman.
About two hundred students
showed up at the elections with
64 members of the reformed peace
Council voting. Dennis Bishop,
in SPS, was elected to head the
new executive, wliich consisted of
students from many different de-
partments of the University.
When the two executives were
turned In to the Students' Admin-
Isti'ative Council for recognition,
no decision could be reached. The
matter went behind the closed
doors of the University Caput for
settlement. Alter two weeks of
considerable debate the executive
as headed by Dennis Bishop and
his Reformers was found to be
the only one that could be consti-
tutionally recognized, and it rests
at that.
Bishop says he intends to carry
on the Peace Council with a good
publicity drive and meetings that
will be addressed by many non-
political speakers genuinely Inter-
ested in worklDff for peace.
Newly-installed President of

F. A. C. Jeanneret gets togeth-

The Saperiniendent's Offico in<
Simcoe Hall has aheady issued ap-
proximately 1300 stickers, a figau-e
identical with the number of stick-
ers Issued by Sept. 21 last year. A
survey made last year by The Var-
sity revealed that the reserved park-
ing areas can accommodate about
450 cars, or roughly one-third of the
number of stickers issued. The ad-
ministration has done nothing to
improve this condition.
The SAC is issuing stickers simi-
lar to those provided la,st year, but
printed in blue Instead of black.
Although many holders of last
year's stickers are attempting to
use them again this year, applica-
tion for parking space must be made
annually.
Last year, cars in the SAC park-
ing space were a severe impediment
to pedestrians on the walk west of
Hart House, as bumpers projected
more than one foot over the nar-
row sidewalk. This year with each
stidcer issued, the SAC requires the
receiver to swear that he will park
at least one foot ffom the curb.

Meet Students
In New Home
After 20 years of planning, Ui«
Student Christian Movement of
Canada and the local SCM have re-
cently acquired offices near th»
University that also provide a stu-
dent service centre. The SCM haa
rented 143 Bloor St. (the former
Phi Delta Theta Fraternity House>
from Victoria University for fiva
years.
The building has been completely
renovated and will provide space
for luncheons, receptions and for
student discussion groups. There
are two large reception rooms and
kitchen on the first floor, while tti«
basement will contain a tuck shop
and other rooms for the students.
The national SCM office has been
moved from Bedford St. to the third
floor of the new Toronto SCM build-
ing.
There Is a reception in the build-

Warden's Aide
Overdue Changes?
"Hart House, as a totality, is to
me a synthesis of beauty and func-
tion and I consider it a great hon-
or to have been asked to become
Assistant Warden this year." said
David Gardner in a recent Inter-
view.
"Bom, bred and stuck-in,** is
the way David described bis early
life ha Toronto. He attended Law-
rence Park Collegiate where, be-
sides being president of the Dra-
matic Society, cheer leader, vale-
dictorian, Lawson Cup winner for
proficiency, he also broke the track
and field record In the shot-put.
In 1946 he enrolled at Victoria
College in Art and Archaeology
from whence he graduated in 1950.
In his final year he was president
of the Victoria Dramatic Society
and chairman of the D. of T.
Drama committee and was also a
Vic Moss scholarship candidate
for the class of 50. David Gard-
ner, during his extra-curricular
activities gave an outstanding per-
formance in the field of dramatics.
At high school he won the Ontar-
io Dramatic Verse Speaking con-
test in 1946. He played in 7 of the
14 Robert Gill productions at Hart
House from '46 to '50. His most
Important roles Included Marc
Antony In Shakespeare's "Julius
Caesar," Nicholas the young pro-
fessor in Davles' "Fortune My
Foe." and Othello hi Shakespeare's
"Othello." He also took an active
part in Vic Drama productlono.
Commenting on his position
Assistant Warden at Hart House,
Gardner said "My purpose here
is to act as a liaison between War.
den Ignatieff and the male under-
graduates; to help them under-
stand more fully the varied activi-
ties under this roof." He added
that "It is unfortunate the average
student fails to make full use of
these opportunities for sounding
out their interests in life. Even
by taking part in only one sport,
or one club, or by the attending of
one debate or play or takmg part
in one art discussion, I feel the
standard of the graduate would
go up."
Od the proposal of admitting co-
eds to Hart House, David Gardner
remarked that several concessions
had been made to them already
whereby they can enjoy such activ
ities as the art shows, the Lee
Collection, the Sunday Evening
Concerts, dances. Athletic Nights
and even the odd debate. "But re-
garding the wholesale invasion of
Hart House by the fairer sex, not
only would the male sanctuary be
disrupted but a building designed
for male activities would have to
be drastically enlarged.**
With regard to university drama,
Gardner stated it seemed a shame
If...
. there was s Stadent Union
building, I would not have had to
hire someone to take care of my
little ftai^-DeitK»dea4 Mothea.
the U. of T. lacked a course In dra^
matics. "One need only look." ha
said, "at the ranks of the nouveau-
professionals in the Canadian the-
atre world to realize the majority
are graduates of Mr. Robert GiU
and Hart House theatre. For thia
reason a course in dramatics
could be justly recognized and ad-
ded to the courses in art. music,
armhitecture and literature and
thereby complete the Faculty oC
Alts."
Varsity
Meeting
students Interested hi working
on The Varsity should attend a
general meeting being held by the
staff in Rm. 13, University College^
at 1 pm. today. At this meeting
the editors of the paper will ex-
plain the functions of the varloua
departments and what work is io-
volved. .,|
The amount of work required to
publish a dally paper assures any-
one coming to The Varsity that ha
will have ample opportunity to
write, copy read, or help with the
other work connected with publislj-
ing a daily newspaper.
Students Interested in working
on The Varsity who cannot come to
the meeting today should drop into
The Varsity office in Rm. 78 in tbo
basement of U.C. within the nest
few weeks and have a talk witli
one of the editors about what they
would like to do on the paper.

first time, the Engineering Society
last Wednesday published their
quarterly The Toike Oike under the
editorship of woman.
Toike Oike's new editor Is Har-

tends to include technical papers
written by Skulemen in future is-
sues.
The new magazine is a combina-
tion of the old * "Oike former
Skule scandal sheet, and the
Transactions and Year Book .
This occurred when the Engineer-
ing Society was unable to bear the
financial strain as a regular year
boob and a newspaper appearing
"every now and then."
Regretfully, however, the En-
gineertng Society announced
Skulemen may have to purchase
future copies of the Toike Oike.

USA Draft
Gets Harvard
Cambridge, Massachusetts — (ex-
change) — Enrolment in the Har-
vard Law School is expected to be
around the normal 525-man mark,
despite the fact that 200 of the
originally accepted men have been
di'afted. The sii-e of the jlass was
kept normal by admitting another
applicant, everytime it was learned
that a man had been called to ser-
vice.
I A young man named Dennis ar-
Irived from Switzerland with $300
[in his pocket and a desire to study
electrical engineering at the Uni-
versity of Toronto. Within two
: hours after his contact with the
Students' Administrative Council's
Housing Service, he had found
room and board free in exchange
for light duties and a job at the
university to enable him to earn
enough money to pursue his stud-
ies.
This is merely one example of
the work done by this student-con-
trolled service. Run by and for
students. Its primary function is
to find adequate and inexpen-
sive accommodation for the , stu-
dents of the university.
"We often have to explain this
to homeowners • who protest that,
by charging our standard prices,
they can make no money." ex-
plains Charles Biffe-Dean, Secre-
tary of the Service. An hour in
the httle office on the second floor
of Hart House, complete with two
gas lamps, old typewriters, a
Frank Carmichael reproduction of
two telephones constantly ringing,
would convince anyone of the con-
scientious task done by the staff
in weeding out Uie best accommo-
dation available and forcing own-
ers down to the cheapest prices
possible.
"Attitudes of homeowners vary,"
commented Christa Erdie. a mem-
ber of the staff. "Sometimes we
have to battle with landlords to
keep down prices, and then along
will come a homeowner who offers
the use of her home for $18 a
month to help students. We even
received a call from a woman who
had seen an apartment for rent,
remembered her own student days
and problems, and called to let
us in on it."
Requirements of homeowners
also vary. One woman insisted
By PEARL PARNES
she be listed for "a first year stu-
dent, quiet, poor, from the west,
and a good cook." Many specify
abstainers or insist on either a
man or a woman. One elderly
schoolteacher admitted she would
prefer a man but felt she had bet-
ter take a woman. Another ask-
ed for a couple with a child so
that her son could earn money
baby-sitting. On the whole, how-
ever, there has been a great deal
of difficulty in getting accommoda-
tion for married couples, particu-
larly with children.
"Everyone seems to want to rent
spare rooms to single students."
said Mr. Iliffe-Dean, "and we
are no longer forced to accept any-
thing and everything, as we were
immediately after the war."
Students with families are still
forced into inconvenient shelters,
and there was one point when a
young couple entered the Hous-
ing Office with a three-months-oltj
baby, threatening in a tearful man-
ner to sleep in the office unless
some better accommodation could
be found for them.
Discrimination is one of the
problems the staff has been faced
with. They refuse to list religious
or race requirements under any
conditions and often have refused
to list rooms where the owner has
specified a religious group or
boasted that her homg was in "a
nice neighbourhood, not where all
the foreigners and Jews live."

Seeking More Books
For SAC Exchange
A record was broken yesterday
when close to 1500 books were sold
in the SAC Book Exchange. Never-
theless the shelves are filled with
books on all subjects.
The demand is so great that the
main difficulty is to get enough
books. Exchange officials urge stu-
dents to bring in their used books
now while the demand is still
strong.
During the first week of sales
last year, between seven and ten
thousand books were sold. Book
Exchange officials expect these
figures to be topped this year.
Although the Exchange Is short
of French. History and Political
Science texts, officials report they
are well stocked with books on
every other subject. The turnover
of books is rapid and officials ask
students to buy their books as early
as possible to avoid being disap-
pointed.
Mel Moyer. HI C & F., of the
Exchange advised students not to
become discouraged if they are un-
able to find what they want. 'At
least two men are in *the store at
all times to help students. Only
yesterday two studens searched
fruitlessly for the same book and
had given up the search when an i
Exchange employee was able to find
books for both of them," he pointed
-it.
A net operating deficit of almost
$6,000 last year has forced the Uni-
versity Bookstore to withdraw its
discount on sales of text books to
students. This was revealed by Dr.
Sidney Smith. President of the Uni-
versity of Toronto, in a letter re-
leased yesterday to E. A. Macdon-
ald. General Secretary of the Stu-
dents Administrative Council.
A deficit during the year 1949-50
forced the Bookstore to reduce it3
discount from 10% to 5% on cash
sales of texts to students, the Presi-
dent said.
Despite the reduction in. discount, ■
the deficit of the Bookstore last
year was greater than when the
discount was 10%, said Dr. Smith.
The decrease in student enrolment
accounted for the smaller volume
of sales, according to the President-
AlthougJi the University did not
wish to make a profit on the sale
of texts in the Bookstore, Dr. Smith
explained that any service depart-
ment of the University should not
be operated at a loss.
For this reason, said Dr. Smith,
the University Press was forced to
eliminate the discount.

Cleaner Meds Show, Reformed 'Bob'
In This Year's College Productions
^ some oC this year's College shows
T^e still only twinkles in the eyes
of their directors; others are al-
most ready for the traumatic ex-
perience of birth. But, whether the
scripts are in the embryonic stage,
or the casting about to start, the of-
ficials in charge of the five col-
lege and faculty shows are confi-
dent that each will be outstanding
ill its own way.
The Shows planned for this year
are "The U.C. Follies" (University
College), "The Bob Revue" (Vic-
" toria College). "Dentantics" (The
Faculty of Dentistry) , "Da f Eydil
Jlifce" (The Faculty of Medicine),
and "Skule Nite" (The Faculty of
Applied Science and Engineering*.
Plans for the All Varsity Revue re-
cently received a setback when the
director found it necessary to re-
Blgn. There will be no definite '■
news about the A.VJl. until the
Students' Administrative Council
has met.
The oldest College Show on the
campus is the U.C. Follies which
started life as a U.C. Literary and
Athletic Society show — (possible
origin of "Leaping Lit."?) — and
developed into a College show. The
directors of the FolUes. Victor
Beube (in) and Barbara Cornes
Br DENISE RICHARDS
(irn . promise that there will be
entirely original scripts, score, and
music this year.
There will be the usual amount of
girls with choreography by Cynthia
Barrett, and a college orchesti-a.
For dates of casting, which will be
itarting soon, see future ads in
The Varsity.
The "Bob Revue" is a perfect ex-
ample of emergent evolution (Phil.
Id.) this year. The "Scarlet and
Gold" and "the "Vic. Bob" have been
combined for the first time which
will result in the fii'st association of
Women with the 'Bob".
The "Bob" started 79 years ago,
when Bob Eeare. the janitor of tlie
Victoria College Men's residence
gathered Freshmen and Sopho-
mores in his quarters for an even-
ing of entertainment, leading the
singing with his violin, Tlijs grew
into a strictly stag show put on
for the Vic Freshmen and did not
compete with the Scarlet and Gold,
the co-ed College show which
started two years ago. George Mc
Cowan (rV) and Phelps Bell (III),
the directors of the Bob Revue in-
tend to combine the best features
oE these two shows.
"Skule Nite". the explosive show
of the Engineers, will certainly be
marked by some "unusual" hap-
pening. Two years ago. a prop in
the show, a large idol of the Buddha
type, was left on the steps of the
city hall after a cast party, clutch-
ng, in one of its six hands, a note
from Connie Smythe to Controller
Balfour, who were having a slight
tiff over hockey tickets at the time.
Balfour's claims that the whole
business was a Communist plot hit
all the downtown front pages until
the donors were identified.
tncidentally, the "idol" was one
of the fabulous machines that are
the signature of Skule Nite. Their
species is the best kept secret on
the campus until opening night.
Dentantics" will feature the
dental nurses, who will be doing
lome eyefilling. The orchestra will
be composed of dental students,
who "may not be dentists, but are
definitely musicians".
The theme, of course, will be
greatly concerned with matters of
the mouth, and professors who ex-
pect to attend are warned that they
may recognize themselves onstage.
A "clean show with a medical
savour" is the paradox promised by
the directors of "Daffydil". The sets
will be supplied by the department
of Arts as applied to Medicine,
which may mean some very reahs-
tic interior scenes.
The main difficulty about Daffy-
dil is that there is only one per-
formance, and the tickets usually
give out before the Medsmen can
provide enough for their dates.
However, they will be having a
profe.=isional orchestra, so a few
musicians may be able to see the
show from the "pit". (Conservatory
registrar, please note.)

To be quite frank, movies shouldn't be here in this space at ail thia
morning. But the Drahraa Critic hasn't got his fangs properly honed
up yet. so movies it is. ,(
A comment on things to come In films Is in order. It is encouraging
to note that two widely -acclaimed films, both HoUywood-made. ara
soon to be seen. One is A PtiA(3E IN THE SUN, the newest version of
Dreiser's An American Tragedy. Tlie critical whooping suggests that
despite a young, inexperienced cast, the film is several steps above
average. Even more proniLsiag is Elta Kazan's A STREIETCAR NAMED
DESIRE. The Tennessee Williams play stars Vivien Leigh, along witU
Marlon (The Men) Brando, Kim Hunter and Karl Maiden. The latter
three are from the original New York cait. Kim Hunter wiU probablr
be best remembered from her innocuous bit as heroine in the Powell-
Pressburger opus, STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN, while Maiden did a fine
bit as the medic in HALLS OP MONTEZUMA.
Other pictures on the horizon are THE BRAVE BULLS. PEOPLE
WILL TALK. AN AMERICAN IN PARIS, and the TALES OP
HOFFMAN. The bullfighting film is Robert (All the King's Men)
Rossen's production based on the Tom Lea novel and stars Mel Ferrer.
PEX>PLE WELL TALK is tlie latest Joe Mankiewicz film, the successor
to his ALL ABOUT EVE. AN AMEPvICAN IN PARIS is the newest
Gene Kelly musical with lavish MGM technicolor production and
George Gershwin music backing the dynamic Kelly dancing. And
TALES OF HOFFMAN is the newest Powell-Pressburger effort, the last
ones being THE RED SHOES and THE SMALL BACK R<X>M.
Last night was spent on the double bill of CAESAR AND
CLEOPATRA and THE WAY AHEAD. Some will say that a double bill
of this weight is a lot to take, and they have a point. It is a lot of
movie. But it is a lot of fine movie,
Tlie four Odeon neighborhood theatres are featuring this bill right
now. and it deserves recommendation. The GBS play gets an expensive
production which sometimes seems to drag. But Claude Rains, who is
evei-y inch Julius Caesar (Shaw variety), and Vivien Lei^h as the
kittenish and adolescent Cleopatra, make the picture fun. CAESAR
AND CLEOPATRA does not come up to the other Gabriel Pascal
-versions of Shaw plays, PYGMALION and MAJOR BARBARA — they
were very tidy pictures. But both for sound acting from the stai-s and
an excellent British cast which does justice by Shaw, and an eye-filling
production, the film is worth catching.
THE WAY AHEAD was made during the war by Carol Reed, just
then coming up as a top British director. David Niven is the only name
that is well-known although Leo Genn, Stanley HoUoway. John Laurie
and many other familiar faces are present as members of a conscripted
platoon whose conversion from civilians into fighting men makes up
the story.
There is honesty and sincerity in THE WAY AHEAD that makes
you realize what the successful American-made BATTLEGROUND
lacked. In fact, among American war pictures only the Lewis Milestone-
made films. ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT and the
recenUy re-released and re-titled SALERNO BEACHHEAD (A Walk
in the Sun), have that same feeling of genuine-ness.
Lining up is still pari of the Uni-
versity cuiriculum, as those who
left paying of fees until the last
minute will well know. However,
line-ups for fees are considerably
shorter this year as Simcoe Hall

NFCUS AND YOU
YOU AKE A MEMBER OF NPCUS! DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT
IS? WHAT IT DOES FOB YOU FOR THE TWENTY CENTS YOU
PAY TO IT?
NIKJUS is primarily an organization devoted to serving university
students across the country, to the idea of improved student conditions
on a national level. -Our entire programme must be evaluated." says
Arthur Mauro, immediate past president of NFCUS, "on a basis of
what will be most beneficial to Canadian University students."
Two projects serving the students of this country are the regional
exchange plan and the annual compUation of comparative text-book
prices at universities across the countir. The latter project (begun
and carried out by the University of Toronto NFCUS Committee) aims
to bring prices into line and to reduce text costs if possible at all the
universities which are members of NF<7nS.
In the past the report of current prices showed great variations
hi the costs of texts in various parts of Canada and even between
Hamilton and Toronto. The latter city proved to have the highest
price for texts. , , , i..
Through the report several universities succeeded in getting
reductions m costs while recommendation was made to several
university NFCUS committees to look into the possibility of slartmg
a campui or cooperative bookstore for students it one was not aheady
Jn existeiKe. ^^^^^^ text-book costs to the NPCUS conference in
London recommended that the government be approached by the
national executive about revising lis discriminatory and inconsistent
duty regulations on texts. "It is recommended," the report went on,
■that the government be asked to admit all educational books,
including dictionaries, duty free. The federal sales tax on books does
not seem justifiable. In some cases non-educational books are exempted
while law books and dictionaries are taxed."
However the most important and practicable recommendation
was that tuUer use be made of the exemption of "adopted texts
from duty and sales taxes through the preparation of comprehensive
lists by university faculties. Adopted texts refer to those books that
are on the curriculum of any school in Canada for use as texts or
works of reference. o j *w *
All such books are free from duty. It was recommended that the
NPCUS committees seek to have such a list prepared by each professor
or department and included in the calendar.
NFCUS regional scholarships enable students to spend their
penultimate year at universities in one of three secUons of the
country. Last year nine students took advantage otthc plan.
A recommendation was made that the local NPCUS committees
be asked to approach their respective registrars with the »un o"
having the inter -regional scholarship plan included in their calendar.
Mandates
Three specific mandates were ac-
cepted by the University of Toron-
to NFCUS committee at the con-
ference. Most important of these is
the International Activities Com-
mission, whose chairman is to be
Syd Wax, president of the U. of
T. Student Council. He takes over
the position held by Denis Lazure
ol tlie University of Montreal last
year.
Toronto's second task is to inves-
tigate the possibility of securing a
national radio program for NFCUS,
preferably celebrating national stu-
dent day, November 17th,
Finally, on its own recommendar-
tion, Toronto offered to compile a
brief on living conditions, general
tuition and text costs, the oppor-
tunity for scholarships and bur-
saries for all institutions of higher
learning in Ontario. This brief is
to be distributed to all secondary
schools in Ontario to further the
equality of opportunity in Ontario
for education.
"We want to prepare a pamph-
let that will give prospective uni-
versity students some means where-
by he can compare the costs of
courses and living at various On-
tario universities," Joan Presant,
chairman of the Toronto NFCUS
told the commission at the confer-
ence. "In this way the student can
better choose which university he
wishes to attend. If we can work
it out for Ontario we hope to ex
pand the service to a national
scale."
Last year the Toronto NFCUS
committee had three specific tasks
assigned. It organized a national
student travel service for the sec

Don't apologiae for your interna-

Denzer stressed that America*

great deal together to accompliBli
peace.
Regarding the USNSA attitude
\ the communist-dominated In-
ternational Union of Studenta^
Denzer said that there are indica-
tions of a change of attitude In
lUS, "But how permanent a chango
is it?" he added. "We in the USNS«
do not feel that the lUS can change
However we should continue to
send representatives to the lUS
council and executive 'meetings, and
prs.s for changes if only to prove
that they cannot change." (
It has been the policy of th«
American student association to sit
back and wait to see what happen^
Denzer continued. But we carra
wait any longer. /
Because the USNSA believes that
the lUS is neither democratic nor

become so, Denver said that hit

Travel Serriee
■ A national student travel service
iK to be establislied at the national
office ol tlie NPC0S tor students
travelling abroad.
For the past two years the Uni-
versity of Toronto NPCUS commit-
tee has been in charge of arrang-
ing bookings on ships travelling to
Europe lor Canadian University
students. However only 24 stu-
dents took advantage of this ser-
vice during the past summer while
240 passages were obtained. Pan
of the reason tor the lack of ,re-
iponse was due. it was felt, to the
Jack of pubUcity on the various
campi and the late announce-
ment of the bookings. However,
Robert Johnson, past NPCUS sec-
retary, said In his report on the
travel service that fewer students
were going to Europe last sum-
mer.
The national secretary-treasurer
lias been empowered to arrange a
booking service for the coming
rammer. Representatives from
tbe United States and British stu-
dent union travel service both
told the conference that they would
give every assistance possible in
helping the NPCUS to establish a
permanent travel service.
John Harrison, United States
representative of the British Na-
Seminar
tional Union of Students in New
York, told the delegates in an ad-
dress that the adequate formation
of a travel service depended on
a good idea of the number of stu-
dents who will want passage. It
is only the volume of bookings
that will make the service success-
ful and profitable, he said.
Last year the BNUS operated a
charter plane service between
North America lor students at re-
duced rates.
Duties of Mr. Pilon regarding
the establishment of a permanent
travel service include bringing up
to date the booklet published by
the university ol Manitoba
NPCUS committee entitled "So
You're Going to Europe." It con-
tained information on money,
clothes to wear, and other informa-
tion lor E prospective student
traveller abroad, |
Pilon embodied his suggestion
In a report to the conference
which was later adopted. They
include acquiring scenic and de-
scriptive publications of tbe coun-
tries, cities and sites of the stu-
dent's proposed intinerary. and
HFCUS BRIEFS
helping him acquire passage, pass-
ports and visas.
Pilon stressed, however, that Uie
success of a travel service de-
pends entirely on the cooperation j
of the local NPCUS committees.
A recommendation that infor-
mation about available bookings
be in the hands of the local
NPCUS committees before Janu-
ary 1 was adopted by the confer-
ence to ensure that adequate pub-
licity is given.
Pilon was also requested to
work closely with the American
and British student travel services
to acquire the lowest rates pos-
sible.
If the travel bureau can be put
on a permanent footing with ade-
quate volume, it will prove a ma-
ijor source of additional income
tor the NPCUS, Harrison said.
At the annual NiPCUS conference
the following recommendations were
approved by the delegates:
McGill University will continue
Its attempt to obtain funds for a
NFCUS-sponsored summer seminar.
Por three weeks 100 students from
NPCUS universities across the
country will gather for a series of
lectures and discussions designed
to promote greater understanding
among Canadian students and to
make them more familiar with the
mechanics of their country.
For the past two years the sem
)nar had to be cancelled because
lunds were not forthcoming from
provincial sources. "But it is not
an impossibility by a long shot,
a former McGill NPCUS committee
chairman reported.
By last February the McGill
NFCns committee had arranged
lor all the details of the seminar
Including a program of lectures,
topics and costs. However, it bad
to cancel plans for this past sum-
mer because of insufficient time m
which to approach the provincial
governments for funds, on the pro-
posed basis of $100 for each student
attending.
There was some discussion among
the delegates at London about the
advisability of cancelling plans for
the seminar entirely because ol
impracticability, and its doubtful
value because of the limited num-
ber of students who could attend
i- 'However it was generally agreed
that It would prove its worth by

er to live, work and study as well

eovernment.
^ A new aspect of the semin^ ques-
tion is a brief containing a full ex-
noStion of the purposes, aims and
^gram of a national seminar,
cwnered from the universities
aSosT the country. The brief w.l
?Sn be sent to the authorities at
»?1 NPCUS universities for their
critic^ and later published In
Ss wS, It is hoped to be able to
sKurrmore support for the sem-
inar.
Yves Pilon. new permanent sec-
retary treasurer of the NFCUS
came out of the conference with
a large pile of work to carry on
his shoulders. It was work that
has been piling up or left undone
in the past by the NFCUS because
the organization has had neither
a permanebt headquarters noi: a
permanent secretary.
Now however, Pilon will repre-
sent the co-ordinating link for all
the plans and activities of the or-
ganization and will help them to
be carried out more efficiently.
An outgrowth of the NFCUS fee
raise adopted by all the universi-
ties except one. the national of-
fice and the employment of a full
time paid secretary should give
the federation a more solid founda-
tion.
One result of the conference is
to make the national office a vir-
tual clearing house and filing cab-
inet for an untold amount of paper
material. It will serve as a centre
for the exchange of information
between universities both in Can-
ada and abroad, as well as provid-
ing literature about the history of
the organization, committee re-
ports and travel folders.
Among the duties assigned to
Pilon are the responsibility for
establishing a travel service for
Canadian university students, for
being the permanent general sec-
retary of the Canadian University
Debating Association, and for sup-
plying all the Canadian university
newspapers with regular news re-
leases on the activities of the
NFCUS.
— that the second Austrian good-
will tour of North America be pjO'-

dents and teachers.
— McMaster University accepted
the task of investigating the pos-
sibility of obtaining reductions m

—The national office is to act as a ,

— Ottawa University accepted a

— ^The organization of a national
system of purchase cards was deem-
ed impossible on a national scale
because of fair trade laws prevail-
ing in many provinces. The imple-
mentation of such a scheme was left
to local committees. Such a scheme
would allow a student to buy goods
at a reduced rate on presentation
of a card.

Queen's
Queen's Univei'sity will contiiiue
to take no part in NFCUS aetivities
for the second year. Failure to get
approval of a hike in student coun-
cil fees before students registered
prevents Queen's from paying the
twenty cents per student which is
the requisite lor being a lull mem-
ber.
However the delegates at the
NPCTUS conference agreed that if
the Queen's student council could
pay the six cents per student as it
did two years ago, they could re-
main an affiliate member until next
year. The Queen's observer said that
if the council raise is approved, they
will be able to become a full mem-
ber at that time.
The question of the raise in fees
will be discu'^sed by the university
authorities today.
— It was recommehdtkl thuc tJie
indiivdual NPCUS committees pro-
vide service to students visiting
their centre in the summer. This ser-
vice would include accommodittion,
entertainment and generally look
after the students. If possii:ile th«
local committees were asked to help
these students secure summer em-
sloyment in that centre. iMitny
.Students, particularly in Ontario
and Quebec, spend the summer
working in a city where they can
improve their French or EnglisH
as the case may be.)
— British Columbia accepted m
mandate to investigate the need*
of students. The report would iiv-
clude fees, cost of livmg, and sum-
mer em.ployment as a means to-
ward implementation of the Massey,
Report so that "no Canadian stu-
dent be prevented by financial need
from attending or completing hia
university course because ol finan-
cial need."
— It was recommended that the
executive of NPCUS look into the
exemption of university fees from
income tax for both parents and
students, a power th:\t lies with the
discretion ot the f ' minister
personally, and ftl ^'ion for

As Blues Beat Beaches
Bin ^icFarlane, star ruzuicr ot lasl year's Intermediates, is up with tiic
Senior Blues this season and front present indications will be one of
Varsity's big threats in their drive for the Yates Cup. In the above picture
McFarlane is bein^ brought down by Balmy Beacli tacklers after a fine
run-back of a kick-off. That's Bruce Gillan finally dragging down tlic
elusive Blue ranner, with Steve Pruski assisting. Matti Ferrentino, fornicr
Univcrshy of Buffalo star, is closing in. The Blues won the exhibitiop
iilt, their home opener, by » 16-11 score.
uce McOerr
McMaster Here Tomorrow
For Exhibition Football Tilt
With their hearts set on winning: a berth in Senior Inter-
collegiate sport circles, the McMaster University football
squad will pay the Blues a social visit tomorrow afternoon
at Varsity Stadium. A win or even a good showing against
the Blues would give the Macmen a good argument in their
fight for admission to the league.
McMaster dropped a 7-3 decision
to the Golden Gaels from Queen's
last Saturday in their only exhibi-
tion game of the season, but ac-
cording to Varsity spotters who at-
tended the contest, the Hamilton
squad had the edge of the play for
the major part of the afternoon.
Al Smith, formerly on the staff
of Weston Collegiate and Ottawa
Tech is the Marauder mentor and
the first full-time football coach
that McMaster has employed. Al
started his football with tlie Guelph
Spee&hing af Spart
By MAL CBAWFOKD
Applicants for Varsity track, the Intercollegiate sport
wliicli ranks second only to football in the fall, have already
begun working out at the stadium under the watchful eye
of Hal Brown. This is no time to start predicting intercol-
legiate championships (we did that last year just the day
before the meet and tui-ned out very, very wrong), but the
team looks right now like it will be pretty solid, when last
year's team, which returns nearly intact, is strengthened by
the freshman stars who are, or we hope, will be turning
out this- week and next.
Tlie middle distances will be especially strong. Murray
Gaziuk, the best in his class to come to Varsity for some
time, has done the 880 under 1:57 and should equal or
better that mark this fall. He can run a good mile too (broke
the interfaculty indoor record last year with 4:19.6) but
will likely leave that race to Chuck Wortman, Herb Tilson,
and one or two others who may come up with good efforts.
Wortman and Tilson, with the possible additions of George
MciVtullin if he can get away from his post-grad studies, will
aUo be good bets for the three mile.
In the quarter mile. Eric Kofmel, who did 52 flat at
Michigan State last year, will be good if he gets in shape.
John Dashwood played rugger instead last year, but ran
the (luarter well indoors, and Jim Bassingthwaighte might
be a man to note if you can spell his name. Both these men
will also double in the half mile.
The situation regarding sprinters is not so rosy. Monty
Harris did the hundred in 10.4 last year in the TSSAA.
Old stand-bys like Mike Zuberec, and sophs hke Clint Hus-
band and Hugh Sutherland may turn out. If Bob Dale and
Greg McFadden can leave football long enough to run, they
may turn the trick.
Eon Carr and Leon Smith will do at least 5'9" in the
high jump, but broad jumping looks uncertain just now.
Ed Bednarz of York Memorial is out and putting the shot
just under 40 feet, has done about 42. Endel Tulving throws
a pretty fair discus, and Phil Henderson, who won the
javelm last year at McGill after just learning how to throw
It a couple of weeks before, should be out soon. No very good
pole vaulters are at hand.
So the picture in field events shows one or two ade-
quate performers in nearly every event, but little depth.
No hurdlers are around who can fill Bill Farlinger's shoes,
but Bob Bazos might come out if his back-bone behaves, and
Tauno Ojala is a long-legged Finlander who may turn out
very well.
Hal Brown is sure there are many students here, new
or old, who could do just as well as the ethletes if they were
to tram durmg the month between now and the meet. The
records we have mentioned are the performers' best times,
made at the peak of condition. None of them could go out
and do them today.

Football Practices
Well Under Way
Trinity's Red and Black foot-
ball squad have been out practic-
ing all this week in preparation
for the Intramural opener October
15. The Buttery boys will be un-
der tbe direction of Chad Bark
again this year and the team al-
ready is taking shape. Jim Link-
later, who led the Trinity line last
season, is unable to play this year,
and is now coaching the line.
Coach Bark plans to use the
same formation as last year in the
backfield but is experimenting
with a split line, on the strong
side. Last year's quarter. Rick
Gaunt, is up with the Intermedi-
ate Blues, but his shoes are being
adequately filled by Doug Andi-
son. Red was out for some of last
season with a broken arm and
appeared briefly in the Mulock
Cup final on defence and in a place
kicking role. He is pitching some
beautiful passes in the practices,
and if he can carry on in league
competition the Trinity boys should
be a strong contender to repeat as
Group III champions.
The team returns pretty well in-
tact, but several high school stars
are expecting to displace some of
the returnees from their positions.
Bill Corcoran, 6' 4" end on the
pass-minded UTS team of last
year, is a sharp prospect.
Chad hopes to use the two-pla-
toon system as he did last year,
but will abandon the idea if he
feels he lacks the necessary re-
serves.
Aggies where he starred in the
backfield as a kicker and passer.
He also put in some time on the
Ai'go lineup before joining the air
force.
Some of the bright lights in the
Mac attack are Brian Timmis Jr.
and Alex Ponton whose famous
fathers teed off against each other
on football fields in Eastern On-
tario more than twenty years ago,
Timmis Sr. was a famous plunging
back for Hamilton, and Ponton a
renowned quarter of the Balmy
Beach club.
Danny Masulka, a 220 pound
freshman who hails from St. Cath-
arines and was a schoolmate' of
Varsity's Steve- Oneschuck is one
of the stalwarts of the McMaster
line. Lome Wriggles worth, who
starred for the Marauders at quar-
ter last season will be performing
those duties again tomorrow.
Varsity fans wiU be in for an in-
teresting afternoon tomorrow a;*
the McMaster backfield formation
is something entirely new. Using a
system that could loosely be de-
scribed as a-^weird variation of the
T, the Marauders often have two
and three men in motion on spin-
ners and fakes. The result is novel
to say the least.
Dissatisfied with both the pass
attack and the pass defence ex-
hibited by the Blues agahist the
Beaches Wednesday, coach Mas-
terson will probably take the oppor-
tunity to test his team's pass know-
how should the weatherman grant
him a suitable day tomorrow. There
was a gaping hole down the Blue
middle on a couple of occetsions last
Wednesday afternoon that will
have to be remedied before the In-
tercollegiate schedule opens a week
from tomorrow in Montreal.
The only thing we know for a
fact is that there had better be
some cheerleaders in attendance
this game or the Blue and Wliite
Society will be looking for a new
place to hang its hat.
The Blues have been exception-
ally lucky, at least by last year's
standards, as far as injuries are
concerned. Aside from a couple of
troublesome leg muscles owned by
Bill McParlane and Bill Bewley, the
Blue trainer seems to have few
things on his mind. There seems no
explanation for this other than the
fact that the coach sleeps with his
fingers crossed. i
Ciet 'Em Here
Uoiversity CoUege has signed
two of the nation's best football
players to coach the UC entry in
the Interfaculty loop. Ulysses
Curtis will coach the backfield and
Marvin (Stretch) Whaley will
coach the line. They will begin
practices Monday.
Curtis and Whaley are both
members of last year's Dominion
Championship Ai'go team. Curtis
graduated in PHE at Florida .A
and M. and Whaley took physical
Education at Morgan State Col-
lege.
About 25 prospects were out yes-
terday on the back campus, even
though regular practices will not
begin till Monday. There will be'
another such informal work-out to-
day. Trying out for quarter and
throwing well were Pete Nichols
and Ken Wass of last year's squad,
and Gerry Henderson of the hock-
ey Blues, in addition to a couple of
freshmen passers.
Art Cringan. star guard last year
with the intermediates, will play
for UC due to unforeseen acftdem-
io difficulties.

Ho Visitors!
At its recent conference in London, The
National Federation of Canadian Univer-
sity Students decided to turn down a
proposal made by retiring "International
Affairs Commission chairman Denis
Lazure (University of Montreal) that an,
invitation extended by Lazure to a group
of Soviet students to visit Canada be
ratified by the National Federation.
The proposal would have seen a group
of Russian students come to Canada this
year lor a tour, and a group of Canadian
students go to Russia to return the visit.
The NPCUS Conference turned thumbs
down on the proposal.
Ordinarily such decisions are ma<3e, and
ttien forgotten. Tliis is one instance of the
traditional NFCUS reaction to controver-
sial issues that should come under some
elose scrutiny.
It would be difficult to say that the
proposal was vetoed for one definite
leason or another. But the impression
gtands out that the reasons were hardly
(Klequate: "They wouldn't be allowed on,
our campus." "They will give NPCTJS bad
publicity," "If NPCUS does this it may
get a Red reputation and that will finish
It for twenty-five years!"
To say that the representatives of the
▼arious universities who make up NFCUS
exhibited an attitude which in a sense
merely provides the commimist-dominated
International Union of Students with
ready-made propaganda would not be far

It's always a pleasant task to welcome
♦o thfe ranks of undergraduate publishing
» new work. Although today we are wel-
■ coming not a new, but a reorganized
publication, It is still one of our happier
editorial tasks.
Toike Oike, published by the Engineer-
ing Society, which "every now and then"
' has graced the campus, comes to us in a
new dress. To be produced quarterly, it is
off the mark. But that is only one aspect
of the situation.
If the university students of this coun-
try are afraid, for one reason or another,
to bring into this country for visits young
men and women whose ideas are diametri-
cally opposed to oujs, then surely we have
lost a large degree of faith in ourselves
and in our democratic institutions. If we
are aware of some of the large political
issues that face us, and of the vast num-
bers of carefully trained people who are
the opposition, then we should from time
to time welcome the opportunity to bring
them to Canada, and meet them on our
home ground.
A little honest controversy over the
visit of some dyed-in-the-wool Russian
communists might be very good for the
too often smug, isolationist tendencies
that the Canadian student has shown so
willingly and so frequently during these
past five years.
In spite of the fact that this editorial
might seem to follow rather closely the
current communist line on this issue, we
would rather enjoy the prospect of a
Russian communist student entering the
lists in a Hart House debate.
Canadian student leaders might well
take another look at the principles and
ideas which are currently directing their
actions. The ostrich who sticks his neck
out only to the point where his head Is
well buried in the sand, should realize he
is in danger of losing his plumage.
In a shiny magazine format, pleasing to
the eye and, we understand, easy on the
purse. The new Toike Oike has gathered
in some of the advertisers from the now
defunct Transactions and Yearbook, and
hopes to make the Oike a free publication.
To the Toike Olte staff, and its charm-
ing editor, The Varsity extends its con-
gratulations. We are looking forward to
the November Issue,
A strong preference for GUbert and
Sullivan, and an operetta-director who
played the piano with one hand and con-
ducted with the other, came up m a
recent survey of music on Canadian
campuses conducted by The Varsity. Uni-
versity of Toronto.
Gilbert and SuUivan productions were
performed in the 1950-51 year at four
Canadian universities, Dalhousie, Mc-
Master Toronto and Acadia. Dalhousie's
production of the "IVDltado" ran for four
days to capacity audiences. It had a cast
of nearly one hundred students and was
accofliipanied by the University's own 25-
piece orchestra. The Dalhousie Club has
the advantage of working under an un-
limited budget, because the operetta is
weW received on the campus and makes
money.
■ITwo years ago. 70 members of the uni-
versity of Alberta Mixed Chorus took a
ten-day, 1,300-mile tour of eight Alberta
communities, and appeared before 4.500
patrons. The tour came right on the taU
of spring exams and aroused enthusiasm
throughout the province, and preparations
ore in hand to make it an annual event.
Students at Mount Allison University
join with people from neighbouring towns
in the Junior and Senior Symphony Or-
chestras, which put on concerts before the
student body. Attendance at such concerts
all over Canada is poor to fan-, as univer-
sity students seem to prefer hght music
and operettas to the longhair stuff. At-
tendance at serious music performances
and cultural affairs in general appears to
be best at universities where concert and
extra lecture costs are covered in the
student fees.
This is the case at Western and Mount
Allison. At Western the Nme O'clock
Committee which arranges Sunday eve-
ning concerts) receives one dollar a head
from student fees. Attendance at the five
concerts held last year was good, At
Mount Allison, a Concert and Lect\ire
card is paid for out of the general fee.

The Acadia Athenaeum told about
pi-ofcssional production of "La Ti-aviata,"
which also visited the Dalhousie campus,
of which the "most amazing aspect was
the accompanist, who played the intricate
accompaniment with one hand and direct/,
ed the performance with the other/' Tha
report said that such a display of virtu-
osity and energy almost made one forget
the absence of an orchestra. Another
Acadia music feature last year was the
Quantz Trio, a combination of piano, flute
and cello, whose effect is described in the
Athenaeum as "unusual but remarkable."
Music has been used as a way of raismg
money on several campi. At Dalhousie, the
"Black and Gold Revue" was presented
this year to help raise the students*
$10000 quota for a new rink. University
of Toronto raised close to $500 last year
in a band contest where votes were cast
in hard cash. The money raised in this
new scheme was dedicated to aid for
Asian universities. Winner of the contest
was the notorious Lady Godlva Memorial
Band, which prefers discords to legitimate
chords, and offers a fair indication of
U. of T. musical taste.
All across Canada originality seems to
be the key-note in student productions.
Western's "Purple Patches," Dalhousie's
"Black and Gold," Montreal's "Bleu et
Or," and Acadia's "Folhes" (now extinct)
are student-produced and student-written
to a very large extent, as are many of the
minor campus shows.
In the 1948-49 school year, the Univer-
sity of Toronto's Trinity College's Keith
McMillan and Ron Bryden wrote a com-,
plete show, "Saints Alive," and in 1949-50
Saskatchewan's Neil Harris wrote and
produced a six-act musical revue called /

CIINTHIA CONCLUDED
I became aware of a Chinese
screen blocking off one comer of
the apartment. From behind it came
sounds of garters playfully snapped,
of soprano giggles and of baritone
promises of undying love.
"Who's there?" I asked Cynthia.
Just my room-mate, Laura Lame,
and a business acquaintance."
I Instantly recognized the name
of the diseuse at the Libido Lounge,
the most notorious spot on Yonge
Street.
"But I want to talk about us,"
murmured Cynthia. "Come closer."
Nervously twisting my toque, I ad-
vanced toward Cynthia.
"I called to give you back your
Kinsey, and to tell you about the
first of a series of lectures on Wolf
Wisdom given by the chief physi-
cian of a leading Toronto hospital
to more than 60 girls in Wymilwood
at 5 o'clock today," said Cynthia,
pausing for breath.
"Yes." I countered brilliantly, "I
read about it in The Varsity."
"Have you ever had a course oa
sex?" asked Cynthia.
I stammered something about
reading The Varsity regularly. Ob-
viously something deep inside Cyn-
thia was awakening; she seemed
bent on exploring her potentialities.
"What you need is a course," she
said. "I'll take notes at the lectures,
and pass them on to you. I'll be
your tutor."
"But I already have 16 hours ot
lectures a week," I protested.
"It won't take you long. You can
probably try your final exams this
week."
"No," I said firmly.
"Just think," said Cynthia, seiz-
ing my hand. "At this time next
week you may be doing post-gradu-
ate studies."
"No," I said.
Before I could utter a protest,
Cynthia kissed me roughly, impetu-
ously, on my ruby lips. I realized
something horrible might happen,
and that I must never again allow
myself to be kissed in such aban-
doned fashion. I'm a nice boy.
I struggled out of Cynthia's em-
brace, repelled by her cravei^ be-
haviour, and ran out of the apart-
ment, stifling a sob, I was almost
sick with disillusion.
When I reached the street, I toot
a deep breath of pure, fresh air,
as I reflected on my narrow es-
cape. Cynthia and I were through,
and I was glad. After all, it could
never have been. We have nothing
in common; she's a girl and I'm a
boy. i

Hard Times
Cambridge, Massachusetts, atchange: Yale
students will not only have to keep their owu
rooms clean this year, but will also have a bi-
weekly hispection to see that they do it. "If the
rooms look like pig pens," said Business Man-
ager O. Hamilton Sanford. "it will be because
we have pigs living in them."
It was learned that the university has further _
decreed that no student may engage private aid
to clean his room. Disciplinary action will be
taken in cases where there are flagrant and
repeated breaches of sanitaiy requirements. ,
The discontinuance of maid service was flrafc
announced last May. In the pre-war days, even
'beds were made, but since the war maid service
had considerably decreased*
A considerable reduction in the niamher of
college guards has also been effected. Beginning
this year, there will be no college guards at anj
of the residential colleges between the hours ot
1 ajn. and 9 a.m. Instead a foot patrol oC
campus will circulate among the colleges during
these hours, according to John H. Bower«^
assistant superintendent of the police.
Because colleges will not be as thoroug^ij^R '
patrolled as in the past, students will be com-
pletely on their honor not to bring girls into
rooms, said Bowers.
Janitors for undergraduate buildings remaim"
however, their only two duties in students
rooms are to empty waste baskets every two
days and. to vacuum rugs once each month. Last
year rugs were vacuumed once a "week while
waste baskets were emptied each day.
These economies go into effect exactly oae
year after newly-elected President A. Whitney;
Griswold declared that Yale, in the non-
academic field, must economize in every possible
way.
Some positions formerly filled by hired hela
will now be open to students, with under-
graduates replacing hired girls in several
stances as elevator operators in university
buildings.
Finding that Yale students "seem to have
adopted the easy moral standards of society)
around them," Dean WilUam C. DeVane of Yale
- College issued a letter of warning against cheat-
ing to his vacationing undergraduates in earl;^
August:
'*i am sure that fierce ptmishments are noS
good correctives for this malady," the dean
wrote, '^but I hold it my duty to warn th©
student that punishment up to and includhig
dismissal will be meted out in those oases where
the cheater is caught,"
The dean's letter was "sent just before the
Army football scandal broke, but the disctissioa
leading up to the strong note occurred at a
June facuJty meeting.
Yale was preparing to clamp down shazpiyi
on class cutting next year, said the dean.
Juniors and seniors can no longer "manage their
own attendance" but will 'be limited to 20 cuJe
each tenn.

Tlsltlne McMaster defensive backs In Salnrda;'s game.
By BBUCE MacDONALD
It was a disappointed crowd of Varsity fans that filed out of the Bloor Bowl about
4.30 last Saturday afternoon. They had seen the Blues take a 14-6 decision from the visit-
ing McMaster squad, seen a thrilling 75-yard touchdown run by Steve Oneschuck after
he picked up a Mac fumble, and witnessed a Varsity line that looked like a stone wall for
most of the game, but the team they had come to see, the team that looked like a Yates
Cup winner a few days before against the Beaches simply was not playing that afternoon.
Offensively sjieaking, the Blues ^
failed to go . anywhere in the first '
half, and it was only McMaster
fumbles and some adept recoveries
by Varsity that put the Blues out
in front and kept them there, Mc-
to carry over from the Blue ten
yard line for McMaster's only major
of the game.
The first quarter ended without
a score, but as play rolled into the
end sweeps after finding the Blue
line a tough nut to crack and along
with a polished pass attack that
made the Varsity paes defence look
woefully inadequate at times kept
the Blues on the defensive for
more than the first half.
The Blues came out of the
dressing room looking more like
the team that had upset the Balmy
Beach club three short days before
and began to take matters into
their own hands. A sustained drive
in the third quarter ended in a
touchdown by Bob Rumball. and
had it not been for a couple of
tough breaks on pass Interceptions,
one by Bill Macfarlane and the
other by Alex Lawson in the fourth
quarter, the scoring in that final
stanza might have been an en-
tirely different story.
Lawson's near interception, which
was ruled incomplete by the of-
ficials, gave Lome Wriggles worth,
a standout for the losers, a chance
had been matching kick for kick
with Varsity's At Haig was in-
jured, and Blue superiority in that
department began to make itself
felt. Haig stood back on the Mac
40 and kicked the first point of the
game. McMaster then started their
best drive of the game which end-
ed on the Blue 29 yard line when
Oneschuck picked up Wriggles-
worth's fumble and went all the
way down the field for the touch-
down. Bewley kicked the extra
point.
With oDly three mlnate^ of play
gone in the third quarter, Tom
Bird pounced on a McMaster
funble near the visitors' 50 yard
line and the Blue machine began
to roll. The Blues picked up a first
down when McMaster, the defen-
sive team, was penalized for hold-
ing. Mandryk pitched a strike to
Bird on the Mac 23 for another
first. Rumball juggled the ball up
to the 12, and then carried again ,
to the 7 yard line for another first
down. Oneschuck cut through a
mce hole to the 2; MacParline car-
ried to the one, and on the third
down. Bob RumbaU went over
standing up after taking a pitchout
from Mandryk. Bewley again con-
verted.
In the dying minutes of the third
quarter Bill MacParlane made a
beautiful pass interception and
ran the baU to the McMaster 15
only to have the play called back
due to a Varsity offside in the line.
Haig collected his second single on
a mighty 70 yard punt as the fourth
quarter got under way.
Three minutes before the final
, whistle. McMaster's luck took a
change for the better. Wriggies-
worth pitched a long one to Jack
Gray from the centre field strip©
that was run to the Varsity 18
yard line. Lawson almost ended the
threat for the Blues, but faUed to
hang onto the pass and it was ruled
incomplete. On the next play
Wngglesworth carried around the
left end and bulled his way over
for the major. Bashak converted
for the Macmen to make the score

which had been turned in. During
the questioning the policemen
caught sight of the beer, which the
students were hiding beneath their
gowns.
No official charge has been laid
against them yet, but police say a
summons will probably be issued.
One police official added, "The fact

The police seemed to feel that if
any charge was laid It would be a
relatively minor one of having
liquor in an Illegal place. However,
the freshmen are also liable to the
more serious charge of illegal pos-
session.

Vic Frosh Elect
Representatives
The Vic Freshmen went to the
polls for the first time on Friday
to elect their year representatives.
John Lewis was elected president
and Nancy Pockler, a former Miss
Toronto Cheerleader, was elected
associate president. Other offices

Friday night ?re: Barby Beath,
secretary: Sheila Catto, social direc-
toress; Drew Buchland, treasurer.
Blue & White
Cheerleaders
Being Picked
On Saturday morning 32 co-eds
showed up at the cheerleaders'
trials on the Trinity field, but by
noon there were only 22 left to
shout "kick -em high, tackle low
. . .". A group of merciless Judges
from the Blue and White Society
and The Varsity analyzed each con-
testant's good points . . . such as
personality, appearance and cart
wheel ability. The judges also con-
sidered enthusiasm, but aU the co-
eds there seemed to be full of en-
thusiasm (or something else that
counteracted the cold).
Most students think that a cheer-
leader's life is just one gay round
of cheers and cart wheels. Little
do they realize the problems fac-
ing these representatives of old To-
ronto.
Take, for instance, the problem
of uniforms. The Blue and Whlto
Society can supply the cheerleaders
with bloomers and skirts only. Any
girl knows that this Is not quite
enough clothing when you have t*
face 27,600 pairs of critical eyes.
Another big problem is the ques-
tion of whether Sally of Jane wlfl
go on the McOill rugby weekend.
This question is solved by a form
of lottery. The old veterans amongst
the cheerleaders get the extra
games. But this still leaves the pic-
ture of a poor little cheerleader
sitting by the radio listening to tho
big game ... all dressed up and
nowhere to go.
These pitfalls (or should it bo
pratfalls?) are carefully explained
to the prospective cheerleaders by
the chairman of the Blue and
White Society. However, he also
pointed out the brighter side of
the picture . . . such as the kicks
they would get o>jt of the Job and
the chances for advancement.
Three men also showed up to b*
eheerieaders.

Wrong Tally—
No Doughnuts
At Tuck Shop
"The Hart House Tuck Shop ran
out of doughnuts and milk Thurs-
day because of a miscalculation in
the amount of food ordered," said
George Marshall, in charge of the
tuck shop.
Marshall declined to give the ex-
act quota usually sold, but did
state that there had been an in-
crease In the sale of sandwiches
over last year.
The supply of sandwiches was
depleted for about ten minutes yes-
terday morning, but milk and
doughnuts were not available all
day.
No satisfactory estimate of quan-
tities can be made for a week to
ten days until the demand Is ascer-
tained, Marshall explained.

The first step has been taken to-
wards the construction of a new
University College Men's residence,
but so far the only result has been
d£creased accommodation lor out-
of-town students,
Holwood House, the former men's
residence, is being turned into a
General Arts Building. It will
replace the small houses south of
Knox College on St. George, which
house the Department of Slavic
Studies and Faculty of Law, and
which will have to be demoUslied
to make room for the new resi-
dence.
For the present. Holwood Is be-
ing replaced as a residence by 5
WUcocks St., a former UC girls'
residence. However, it will bold
only about half the number of stu-
dents Holwood did. Holwood House,
at the corner of Queen's Park
Crescent and Hoskin Ave. held
from 48 to 55 students. 5 Wilcocks
holds 24 students. The accom-
modation of Wilcocks i£ better,
since all the rooms are either
single or double. The rooms in
Holwood held four men, and at
peak years six.
SImcoe Hall officials will not say
when construction will begin on
the new UC men's residence. It
was first announced by the late
Dr. Taylor at the 1949 UC FaU
Convocation. Since then spiralling
construction costs have prevented
any work on it. At present, the
university is waiting for costs to
decrease before they start build-
ing the new residence.
Despite the decreased quarters.
Dean Bissell, in charge of UC
residences, says that nearly every-
one who was eligible for space in
the residence was taken care of.
However, he adds, he was obliged
to strictly enforce the ruling that
DO resident obtain less than third
class honors. "I think we found
a place for everybody," he said
Saturday, "but there may be one
or two we couldn't accommodate."
University officials cannot say
the exact cost of renovating Hol-
wood from a residence to an of-
fice buUding. but guess it will cost
close to $50,000. As soon as it is
finished, the Departments of His-
tory and Slavic Studies wiU move
in. The Department of Law will
take over the present history build-
ing.
The History Department is also
planning to transfer the name of
its old building to its new one. The
new Arts Building will be called
Baldwin House, although the pro-
perty will retain the name Hol-
wood.
Pictured above Is French House, until recently a residence for University
College women. Now known mundanely as 5 Wilcox Street, French
House is housing the displaced men from Holwood Halt However,
women assigned to French House need not worry(?): 146 St. George
Street has been eqoipped as the Gallic residence.
Co-eds Short Phooes
In Whitney Hall Rush
The telephone situation at Whit-
ney Hall, and at French House
(the new U.C. men's residence at
5 Wilcocks Street) is in the words
of James Durante : "Catratstro-
phic." The 210 co-eds at Whitney
have only six phones this year in-
stead of the normal nine. The
three phones on the second floor
of Mulock, Cody and Falconer
Houses were removed over the
summer to save costs and have not
yet been replaced. At the height
of the dating season, one co-ed at
Whitney said that nine phones
were hardly enough. She thought
that six phones during rubgy sea-
son was "awful."
Another co-ed said that while
more girls lived on .the second
floors of the houses than on the
first and third floors, the sight of
the holes in the walls where the
phones used to be was worse than
the inconvenience of running up
and down stairs.
Any co-ed who thinks that the
situation is bad at Whitney, should -
be thankful that she is not livlag
at 5 Wilcocks Street. The new
U.C. men's residence (replacing
Holwood House) has lost its plione.
Anyone phoning the number listed
io the phone book under French
House will get Middle House M
Vic.
French House has a phone. But
it is the old graduate house num-
ber that was in 146 St. George St.
when French House was moved
there. Incidentally, anyone phon-
ing French House will get an Eng-
lish answer.
Miss Gillespie explained to Tto
Varsity that French is not spoken
throughout the house. Co-eds an-
swering the telephone or talking
to one another in the upper halls or
in their rooms, may speak English.
The Bell Telephone company
was unable to say when the tele-
phone service would be restored to
Whitney House or to 5 Wilcoctc*
Bt. And at present no one knows
what the phone numbers will bc^
if there are any phones.

The main hoose at Caledon Hills Farm where twenty-five stall and
students gathered over the weekend to discuss the general topic of
*^he function of the university." Highly vocal, the sessions produced
Btlle agreement, saw participants searching through the haze not only
lor ideas but also for Toronto. Caledon Hills Farm is the rural appendix
to Hart House, purchased two years ago to provide a coimtry place in
which the men of the university could get away from the city for the
purpose of working Toronto out of their systems, engaging in talk, or
pursuits that pleased their fancy. Its popularity has increased greatly
since it was opened. The Farm features two good swimming ponds,
odd caves, fresh air, some work.
Universities in general and the
University of Toronto in particular,
came under heavy fire over the
R-eekend when a group of students
and staff members gathered at
Caledon Hills Farm to try and find
out what they were thinking on
the general topic of "the purpose
of the university".
The meeting, ' organized by
small group of staff members who
have been interested in the grow- i
ing problems facing the universi-
ties, brought together highly vocal
members of both the staff and un-
deruaduate body who from Friday
night to Sunday afternoon threshed
out the many difficulties they found
in .so large a topic
The group found many opinions
prevalent, both on the student and
on the staff level, and little gen-
eral agreement. In discussions that
tended to be highly theoretical (a
point of objection on the part of
some students) they tried to find
some common basis for discussion,
and rarely succeeded.
The discussions will be continued
throughout the faU. Most partici-

ErfTd inspiration for poets. Today
Taddle Creek is a sedate little road
runiung along the east side of the
Engineering Buildings. Yet at one
time it was "a mfehty stream,"
flowing through the University
grounds. It entered the campus at
Bloor Street, at the east side of
what is now the Economics build-
ing, pursued its way south where
Hart House now stands, and fol-
lowed the present route of Taddle
Creek Road to College Street.
On December 4, 1880 the Taddle
Was mentioned in The Varsity for
the first time (in fact it was one of
the first issuer of The Varsity) :
rustic bridge has been erected over
the River Taddle. Handrails of
some sort should be added to com-
plete the structure, lor without
such support the snow-covered and
rather cylindrical surface Is a peri-
lous path."
But the authorities chose to dis-
regard the advice of The Varsity.
And so a few months later there
was another article In The Varsity:
••the "dear boy' who the other night
fell into the Taddle off that mean-
dering mantrap which spans the
ravine has promised us an article
,9a Middle Age Architecture."
The "rustic bridge" mentioned
erossed the -'addle at College
Street. Unfortunately (or fortun-
ately) that rustic bridge had only a

short life, for in June, 1S81 it col-
lapsed and floated some distance
downstream.
It is evident from the 1881 Issues
of The Varsity that Taddle Creek
played an important part in the
life of the student, particularly the
freshman student.
''At twelve o'clock a trlai took
place and sentence was passed to
duck the three remaining culprits
in the Taddle, but this order was
rescinded,"
The Taddle was the coup de
grace in hazing freshmen. This
treatment, however, was not to be
sneezed at, for;
"The stench arising from the
Taddle Is very pronounced. The pre-
valence of so much fever in the city
is surely a good reason for the
prompt abatement of this long
standing nuisance."
By 1883 the Taddle had degener
ated into a cesspool. But this prov-
ed to l>e no deterrent to students
with a poetic turn of mind. Such
goms as the following, written in
October, 1883. are found frequently

cleaning job will be done Is the $6*
question-
There is also the question of any
special preparations for the royal
visit, which have to be made Fri-
day, and which might conflict
with the dance.
If the dance is held, warns Hart
House Publicity Director Gerry
Hart, IV Meds, lighting will have
to be restricted, since the only
people who can remove lighting
fixtures are university electricians.

Hart House officials are in a
quandary.
They don't know what to do
with the All-Varsity Pall Dance,
scheduled for October 12. The date
was fine, until the King's illness
postponed the visit of the Princess
and Prince by one week. Now the
Royal couple are going to be visit-
ing Hart House the morning after
the dance.
The problem is how to get the
House cleaned up before the Royal
Visit at noon. This is complicated
by security regulations, which pro-
hibit anyone from entering Hart
House Saturday morning witliout
a special pass.
The only parts of the House which
the royal couple will see are the

a group of staff and students under
such conditions was valuable.

The Ust verse of this poem tells
us what became of the Taddle. Due
to the odour, and the danger of
spreading fever, it was decided to
make the Taddle into a sewer, where
it runs today, below Philosopher's

Taddle is occasionally said to ap-

i
wiicii »v "<« '^'v that the order
was too indefinite to be effective.
As yet, DO form of enforcement
has been provided for, but Igna.-
tieff said that, if necessary, this
problem will come under discussion
by the Board of Stewards. So far.
no action has been taken other than
an occasional reminder to students
wearing hats and overcoats in the
Great Hall.
Ignatief said that students have
complained to mm about the stan-
dards ol dress in the House, and
that they insisted on behaviour anii
clothing suitable to the atmosphere
and dignity of Parliament in the
House debates. However, he said
that he had hesitated to impose
rules and regulations about the
matter because he felt that the loss
of decorum and propriety indicat-
ed by the problem is a fundamental
one in modern society, and that a
ruling might not be effective.
His trip to Finland this sujnmer
made him realize how much our
standards have slipped in compari-
son to Europe, the Warden said.
There, he explained, even in the
Co-operative restaurants of the
workers, men without ties, or other-
wise improperly dressed, and women
without stockings, would not be ad-
mitted. This indicated, he said, not
snobishness, for Finland is a very
poor country, but a sense of a pro-
priety, which, he feels, should be de-
veloped by a university education.
Students feel that a certain stan-
dard of dress and manners should
be enforced in Hart House, the
Warden said, but he feels that many
other students will resent it as an
infringement of personal rights. Ig-
natieff wants it made clear that his
first concern is to make all male
students feel welcome in the House,
but that he also wants them to be
very conscious of their appearance
and behaviour.
The Warden is sutei that if the
matter of enforcement bf the ruling
a1»out the Great Hall cEimes to an
issue, the majority of the students
will be behind him. He pointed out
that at Guelph, in spite of the in-
convenience of changing from farm
and laboratory clothes, students who
enter the dining room improperly
dressed are fined by their own Ad-
ministrative Council. A certain
amount 'of conformity to the dic-
tates of good taste is an indication
of maturity, which, said the War-
den, seems to have deteriorated at
the University of Toronto in the
past two or three years.

By BUD GODFREY
A Salesman died in the packed Royal Alex last night and I, sitting
with the Gods, felt his death was right.
I had met Willie Loman, a Salesman played by Duncan Baldwin, at
8:20 p.m. By 11:40 p.m. I realized his death was right and good. It was
also a little sad. For the first time in his life Willie was even — the
mortgage was paid, the refrigerator was his — but Willie felt he Had -fli'
be more than even. Because Willie was a part of the Great American
Dream — but the dream became his nightmare. It was a little sad.
I don't know whether author Arthur Miller intended that his play
should have that effect on me. I don't think he tried at any time to
preach or sell any idea, although to a less-gifted author the temptation
might have been too great. Miller has written a beautiful, penetrating
cccnmentary on one part of our society- He has peopled his commentary
with highly credible, intelligent characterizations. He has lighted it with
glistening humour. And he has finished it with a logical ending. It is an
honest commentarj'.
The director of the play kept faith with the writing. It would have
been very easy to have murked up the clarity of the American Dream
by playing Hap (Ted Jordan), Willie's second sop. as a comic relief,
instead he rightly crvstallized into a strong character with his last
declaration to follow in his father's tracks. Biff (Steven Rich). Willie's
first son, could have been more starry-eyed. It is always easy to cast a
player who will declaim at great lengths on the beauty of nature and
his love of manured boots. But Biff didnt overdo it.' That was because
Del Hughes, the director, understood that the play was a commentary.
When the curtain went up on Jo Meilzinger's set I must confess I
was a little suspicious of the 3-level, scantling-outlined house. But when
Sylvia Davis came running in with a clothes- basket, I could smell the
fresh sun-dried laundry. When Willie spoke of the cement he had used
to repair the house, I could see the trowel marks. And when Meilzmger
chose to put a leafv arbor over the house, by merely projecting a floral
pattern over the whole set, I could feel the soft air of that suburban home.
When Willie died, many in the audience died. All through the play
there was an undertone of audience thought— "There but for the Grace
of God". . . ." That was a tribute to a perfectly acted, highly-tensed
commentary on our society.
When Willie died, I thought his death was right — and from -fl»
dazed looks of the home-going audience, I knew it.

The University of Toronto song-
book is at about the half-way mark,
according to E. A. MacDonald, sec-
retary-treasurer of the SAC, after
two years of collecting songs, check-

cial details. Mr. MacDonald said
that the book will probably contain
about 150 pages with 150 songs, and
will be of pocket size with a soft
cloth cover. The songs wiU have
melody lines and illustrations.
The finance committee of the

When the choir of the Technical

tober they expressed a desire to
have Canadian students visit their
project. The trip was arranged
through the erfort.s of Urho Toi-
vola, Finn minister at Ottawa, and
Kingsley Graham. Finn consul in
Toronto.
The land for the project was
bought by the Finnish students
themselves and they are now busy
raising funds and hiring contrac-
tors to do the labor. The actual
project will take ten years to com-
plete and includes three residences
which will house 750 students. Ma-
terials from war wrecked buildings
are being used, including the bricks
from the Soviet Embassy which
was the only building destroyed by
Russian planes. The Varsity stu-
dents were working the Sauna — a
Finnish steam bath which regu-
lates temperatures up to 120''C.
The Canadians were impressed
with the Finnish enthusiasm and
initiative. The country has suc-
ceeded in paying off 93% of their
war reparations and In doing so
have built up their country's trade
and strengthened their economic
position.

B; MAL CRAWFORD
McMaster's novel backfield formation with four backs
In motion before the snap of the ball was a lot more confus
ing to us sportswriters than it was to the Blues last Satur
day. With everybody running every which way and the ball
carrier coming from some place where he wasn't a second or
two before, no two people in the press box ever shared
the same opinion as to who had carried the ball.
But as the figures show, the Blues didn't have too much
trouble with it, limiting the Mac ball carriers to less than
three yards per try. When the ball was snapped there were
generally two backs on either side of the play, all in flank-
ing positions outside the end. leaving Wrigglesworth all
alone behind the centre. Without anyone right back of the
quarter to charge fast into the line and make the defending
linesmen search him before they rush the quarter, the pivot
man has a rough time of it. Wrigglesworth was passing
pretty well in the first half until the Varsity linemen found
they didn't have to look for a ball carrier before they rushed
the quarter. As a result Wrig's passing was rushed badJy
in the second half.
Buster Brown, former McMaster tackle now playing for
Hamilton Tiger-Cats, was sitting beside us ti-ying to spot
the Blues' weaknesses for Mac coach Al Smith. Though he
felt that the Marauders had a territorial edge over the
Blues and that the score did not do them justice, he could
not see that the showing would help much in getting them
into the Intercollegiate league until a sixth entry appeared
to balance the circuit.
On the subject of McMaster's helter-skelter backfield
system, he mentioned that in the Queens' game, which was
played on a wet field, the backs were slipping around in
the mud quite a bit which frequently slowed up the plays.
Per.sonally we think that backfield-all-in-motion is a good
idea for giving the backs a head start in getting up speed,
but not much good for deception, the way Smith uses it.
It's what you do after the ball is snapped, not before, that
gives deception.
Varsity perhaps didn't look quite as good against Mc-
Master as they did against Beaches, if you can go by the
opponents' reputations. One very cheering note though was
the way the Blue line pushed the bigger Maroon front wall
around, stopping running plays dead and rushing the passer.
When they did just that to the Beach line, everyone said
Beaches weren't trying, but this was twice in a row. The
Mac line outweighted the Blues, nearly ten pounds per man
And that backfield wasn't exactly small either.
Considering Bewley, Dale, and MacFarlane were still
hampered by injuries, the Blues' ground offensive was
superb. Bobby Rumball filling in for Bewley was a star,
and MacFarlane looks better every time out. Passing is
another story.
Haig's kicking, aided by sloppy play by Mac's safety
men, was where Varsity showed the biggest edge. He got
away two seventy yarders, and his average was his best yet,
43.3 from scrimmage. Alex Ponton averaged 42.8 for Mac
before being helped off, but Timmis couldn't keep it up.
In case nobody noticed, this makes four straight wins.

However, the Mustangs and Jobn<
ny Metras are not going to let the
trophy, emblematic of supremacy
in the Intercollegiate loop, leave
their University without putting up
a stiff fight. Many a fan thought
that the Mustangs were going to
lose it to McGill last season, but
the team would not be sold short.
They trooped down to Montreal
and walloped the McGill Redmen
24-2 in the play-off game of the
season.
Finding men to fill the shoes of
last year's starters who have grad-
uated will not be an easy task for
Metras. Graduation wiped out the
complete first string backfield of
the Mustangs last year. Without a
doubt, the strongest department of
the team this year will be the line
— basically the same as last year,
with the exception of all-star Bill
Ford, now playing with the Toronto
Argos, Elmer Quintyn and Ross
Grant.

team and constantly broke through

Fans Caah W^eather W^artn
It must take more than a week
to get fans in the mood for a foot-
ball game if the ardour of the Var-
sity students last Saturday after-
noon is any indication. The crowd
watching the Blues take the Mc-
Master Marauders into camp was
one of the quietest that has grac-
ed Varsity Stadium In many a
moon.
Over in the press box we could
almost hear the voices of the cheer-
leaders, a skeleton crew of last
year's squad, above the murmuring
of the 6,000 stalwarts in the stu-

Gray, and Nick Volpe. Toogood
has established himself in the Big
pour as a smart and tricky runner,
always able to break away for (
long gain. He is also a fine defen-
sive player despite his 160 pounds.
John Shore plays offensive centre
lor Argos and his desire lor hard
body contact has made him a hard
man to beat. Pete Bennett, who
has grown to a mere 235 pounds,
(klays offensive right tackle. His
dent's section. When the Mac sup- .
porters cut loose, a whole 1500 of
them, Blue supporters were all but
drowned out.
If there has ever been a football
game played in more ideal weather,
from tiie standpoint of both the
players and the watches, then we
would like to know just when that
was. Sunshine and a cool breeze
felt more like the holidays were still
progress tlian reminding us of
football.
This handkerchief dropping rou-
tine on the part of the refs at least
has added something, confusing or
otherwise, to the task of watch-
ing a football game. We were par-
ticularly taken by the red and white
effort Uiat the umpire and the ref-
eree were sporting. They looked
more like like distress signals on
ship at sea than anything alse we
can think of at the moment.
The grim look on Coach Master-
son's face got a little grimmer In
the fourth quarter when the trainer
made about liis third trip onto the
field to help off an injured Varsity
player. After the nighmares that
coach rates him one of the most
improved Canadian linemen on the
team. Jack Gray is a newcomer,

were of the minov variety.
Those weird and wonderful gypra
tions in the McMaster backfield
were certainly something to behold,
They really iake this man-in-mo-
tion stuff for all it is worth. Look-
ed like public school let loose for
recess when the Mac quarterback
started to call signals.
We are beginning to wonder when
those characters who run around
at football games all dressed up in
monkey suits are going to gradu-
ate or at least get tired of the
pastime. All that energy going to
waste almost makes us weep. What
some guya will do to get into a
football game free of charge [
It is difficult to say just what
McMaster's exhibition games this
season have accomplished as far as
gaining them admission to sem
Intercollegiate football circles is
concerned. The difficulties of a five
team loop are the main argument
for the league's refusal to admit
them, and that argument will not
be changed by any number of ex-
hibition games.
substantial losses, is the one bright
consolation for John Metras.
From top to bottom the Mus-
tangs for 1951 wUl have the em-
phasis on weight and speed. Six
of the candidates for Mustang
berths tip the scale at 200 pounds
or over, headed by hefty Ken
Burgess who weighs in at a rouslne
210.
Althoneh the picture does not
look so bright when the backfield
is considered, John Metras is not
losing any sleep over the different
positions there. In fact, he Is feel-
ing quite happy with so many of
the fine prospects. They arc all
fighting for a starting berth with
the "glory-glory" boys.
At quarterback, Metras has two
men who have played with tho
Mustangs in previous seasons.
Ray Truant, from Windsor, Is higU
up on the list for the starting quar-
ter of this season, as he was sub-
bing for George Arnott in most ot
last year's games. Either Bert
Vincent, star of the 1948 playoff
game in Toronto, or Bob McMurdo,
the quarterback up from the Colt? ,
of last year, may also have the po-
tentialities for the first-string quar-
ter position on the Mustangs of
1951 . McMurdo , who was voted
the "Most Valuable Player on the
Intermediate Team" of last year,
is going into his third year at
Western. He hails from Toronto.
The outlook does not look so grim
on the half-line as many of the
coaches thought it would, 'after
the loss of the McFarlanes, and
Doug. Gray. Gray, the Sarnia boy,
who is doing so well with the Ham-
ilton Tiger Cats this yeai'. Jolm-
iy Metras still has some good-
looking football material in Mur-
ray Henderson, Jimmy Carroll,
Cam. Church and Stu. Jerome.
Murray Henderson, who is also a
track and field star, was playing
second to Bob McParlane last
year, and didn't get on the field
very much. Munay should be one
of the top backfielders this year
for the Mustangs if he can get his
hands away from the fumbleltis
that plagued him last year.
Jimmy Carroll, who did quite a
lot of kicking last year, is expect>-
ed to handle that chore this year,
and also take over some of the
ruimlng in the left-half's position,
Bobby Peirce, another Londoner/
Is slated for quite a lot of work
this season. Bobby, who, like
Murray Henderson, is also a top
notch track man, has been playing
Mustang football for several sea-
sons. Now that most of the stars
have graduated, he hopes to see
a lot of action in the halfback slot
this year. One of last year's out-

spot. Ron. Tracey and Jack Jao-
ques (the "Georgia Peach" — he
played with the U. of Georgia last
year on the Freshman team) will
• also be working hard for a per-
'^fgf^ient berth at right half.
In the fullback spot this year,
Gerry Fitzgerald, who is a star in
lacrosse and basketball, has the
upper hand as far as experience is
concerned, although Belec did play
some nice games for the Mustangs
last year.
Jimmy Black, one of last year's
Mustangs, is also back In his fly-
ing wing position, and is battling
off several promising freshmen re-
cruits for that spot.
This year at Western saw one ol
the most promising freslmen turn-
out for many a decade. There is
no weeping in towels at the Mus-
tang camp this year, for many of
last year's high school stars are
driving hard to wear the Purple
and White in the J. W. Little Me-
morial Stadium this fall.
That Is the 1951 Mustangs from
top to bottom. Although John Met-
ras realizes that he has lost the
backfield of "the best team that he
had ever coached at Western." he
is not wasting too much time cry-
ing over spilt milk. Only time will
tell if the freshmen crop of this
year, along with the returning
Mustangs, will hold the Yates tro-
phy in Western for tfle seventh
time in eight years. Johnny Mer-
ras thinks they can.
The Mustangs open with an ex-
hibition game against the Wind-
sor Royals on the 22nd of Septem-
ber. And then follow that up with
the Sarnia Imperials on the 29th.
Both exhibition games will be play-

As McGill Frosh
Take on Sports
Montreal (COP)— You have to be
athletic at McGill from now on. As
part of the new athletic scheme,
all first year students will have to
take a" compulsory course in phys-
ical education.
This is nothing new for Toronto
where compulsory physical educa-
tion classes have been in effect lor
several years. The new plan sched
uled for McGill wiU be similar to
the one here, except credit toward
graduation may be given.
Aim of the course is to allow stU'
dents to maintahi or improve their
level of physical fitness and to use
the excellent facilities available to
them, it was reported to the Iresh-
ies and frosh. It is designed to
measure strength, co-ordination,
agility and physical education on
the basis of this test. Students will
be assigned, if they require it. to a
remedial exercise or a leam-to-
swlm class.
Otherwise the course will include
a wide variety of sports.
At least that was the impression
of The Toronto Telegram. A few
weeks later Paul Martin stressed
the pressing need for a revision of
the Constitution. The date — 1925;
the place — Hart House; the speak-
er — the Rt. Hon. Paul Martin,
Minister of National Health and
Welfare, who was to return to his
Alma Mater in 1948 to see his so-
cial security program approved by
a vote of 68 to 81. He and others
like him can be given credit for the
overwhelming number of political
debates in Hart House, starting
with the very first one In January
1924, when the House approved the
recent formation of the Labour
Party in Great Britain.
As early as 1926 the House turned
its attention south of the border,
and over the opposition of a visit-
ing team from Minnesota, decided
that the Increasing influence of the
United States in Canada should be
diminished. T^o years later the
U.S. naval program was viewed
with alarm, to be followed by a
condemnation of the States for
dominating the Western Hemis-
phere, and in 1936 the Stars and
Stripes was hurled through the
window of the chamber, much to
the concern of at least one mem-

Dover, England — Nobody tried

Ottawa, Caanda — The Depart-

highest paid Canadians for 1950.
None of The Varsity staff was on
this list.

her, who retrieved the banner in
the hope of averting an intenia-
tional incident.
In 1927 the Prime Minister, Mr.
King, was the first holder of that
office to participate in a Hart
House debate, and the attendance
reached a phenomenal 553. There
were numerous debates on govern-
ment policy, usually in the no con-
fidence form, and on several occa-
sions it was resolved that cnere was
no effective alternative to the gov-
ernment in office, notably In March
1950, when such a motion was de-
feated in the presence of the Rt.
Hon. Louis St Laurent. The sym-
pathies of the House did not re-
main long with any one party, and
a visit by the Rt. Hon. R. B. Ben-
nett was the occasion for The Var-
sity to comment that "Last night's
tongue-fest at Hart House afforded
one more demonstration of the ab-
surdity of debates, and another
revelation of the political vacilla-
tion of the loquacious patrons of
these vocal circuses.''
Yet on two subjects the Issue was
never in doubt — Hog-town, and
women. In 1929 it was resolved that
Toronto was Intolerant. Samuel
McBrlde. the mayor, was present
at the debate. He U)ok the decision
as a personal Imult, and demandea
the reorganlzaiion of the Univer-
sity. Ten years later, the House de-
cided that it had no confidence
in the administration of the city.

As early as 1926. the House
opined that "Woman has more
than come into her own", thereby
exhibiting psychic powers, for in
the hallowed debates room, devoted
exclusively to the use of men. thera
sat a co-ed with a boyish bob,
completely unnoticed by Uie as-
sailants of her sex. In 1936. women
were admitted to a debate, and one
of the gallants, believed to be an
engineer, toasted the fair ones in
a pewter of ale. The honour of Hart
House was at stake, but It was
saved when the aghast officials
were informed that the brew con-
sisted of nothing more potent
tban vinegar and soda. The story
of women and Hart House debates
has an even sadder ending — in
1948 the House upheld the conven-
tional attitude on sex.
Now and then the debaters have
turned their attention to their own
affairs. In 1938 It was decided that
science does not narrow the mind.
Some years later, the Hou.se de-
feated a motion that the wl£«

For An Ideal
Fraternities
The first fraternity was established in
the United States in the early I840's. In
the 100-odd years since the fraternity
Idea has grown into a powerful, wealthy,
and highly controversial system.
Nearly everyone has an attitude towards
fraternities. A majority of students who
have not, do not. and will not belong to
them and are more or less against the
system. Some of these are highly vocal.
Many don't care too much one way or
another. There are even those who leel
the fraternities are relatively harmless.
Members, of course, are in most cases en-
thusiastic supporters of the Greelc letter
societies.
Here at Toronto fraternities play a
lesser role in undergraduate life than they
do in most American, and some Canadian
universities. There are forty-one fratern-
ities here, eleven of them for women,
thirty-one for men. Their membership
probably doesn't exceed 1500 persons;
about 12 percent of the student body. They
are not officially recognized by the Uni-
versity, but are tolerated. Between them
they own a modest fortune in St. George
St. real estate. By and large they lead
tJieir own life, and are seldom in the news.
For the men's fraternities this is a
liectic period. New members are being
"rushed," with a continual round of
parties, dinners, and all the various In-
genious come-ons that undergraduate
minds can devise. New membership is
important to the fraternity: on the suc-
cess of a rushing program depends the
financial stability for the year, the type
of chapter that wUl result, the fraternity's
prestige among other fraternities. The
competition for good material is cut-
throat.
Those who are considering joining a
ftaternity might do well to take a little
time before they take the plung? to look
behind the highly artificial picture pre-
sented during the rushing season. For the
fraternities,- "in spite of all their high-
sounding principles and strong protesta-
tions df being nothing more than a system
devptcd to providing "social contacts for
a group of congenial students in different
faculties and different years" <The Stu-
dents' Handbook) have built up some tra-
ditions peculiarly their own in these
hundred years of growth.
They are not traditions that sit well in
a mature mind operating in a democratic
•ociety.
The fraternity system is built on one
main idea: exclusiveness. Out of this has
grown a multitude of unhappy conse-
quences.
High on the list Is discrimination. And
we are not concerned here only with
racial or religious discrimination, which
Is not universal In fraternities although
tt remains prevalent. It is more subtle
than that, primarily economic, the fra-
ternity discrimination perpetuates the
Idea of exclusiveness within the relatively
narrow confines of a definite social strata.
You have to be able to afford ii. To this
it has added other, more obvious, kinds
of discrimination, such as religious and
racial.
Also growing out of the idea of ex-
clusiveness is the idea of pre-eminence.
It is this feeling, carefully nurtured by the
fraternity system, which inevitably puts
the major part of a University like
Toronto on the defensive. After all, some
say. they go after the cream of the crop,
so naturally they get good people.
Cream can go very sour.
Beyond this lies the wider, still le.ss
obvious field of the standardized mind.
The fraternity, whether it would admit it
or not, seeks and often demands a set of
ideas and values which ordinarily leave
small scope for the individual. Such an
Influence is of the creeping, crawly kind;
people banded together in tight little
groups such as a fraternity tend to try
to be one of the boys.
And what about this business of "social
contacts"? Certainly companionship and
friendship are important parts of univer-
sity life. But those who claim that fra-
ternity friendships, growing as they do
out of a narrow and limited group, with
roughly the same background and same
Ideas, are either more firm or more val-
uable, are not telling the whole truth.
Physically, it is easier to make friends
In a fraternity. But the limitation Is a
little too large to make the fraternity a
profitable field for strong, lasting and vital
friendships.
Those who are afraid that they wlU be
left out In the cold, that they will not
"belong," need have little fear. A good
eighty-percent of this university is some-
how managing to struggle along and make
tlieir friends without the artificial stkn-
ulus of the fraternity system.
Against such a background there is
another consideration that becomes im-
portant when talking about the University
of Toronto. This is a provincial institution.
It is designed to serve its community, as
a community. It has gone beyond that, to
the point where President Sidney Smith
has claimed for it the status of a "national
university."
Is it proper that such an institution
should harbour within itself, by the subtle
artifice of turning its head, the kind of
group whose whole basis is a motivating
force directed not at the community but
at the small, so-called privileged group
who "belong"? We do not think so.
The high ideals that are written in
some fraternity charters are not borne out
by the fraternity record, nor by their pres-
ent activities, They have no place in a
democratic universily, because they are
essentially a negation of the very prin-
ciples of freedom, of tolerance, and devo-
tion to service to which the university is
committed.
Undergraduates who avoid such a sys-
tem as that established by the fraternities
may have to work harder to make their
"social contacts." Those who have done
it both ways find they like hard work.

By RALPH
A person with all the qualifications
want-i to run for the presidency of the
National Federation of Canadian Univer-
sity Students. He is prevented from even
being nominated. Do you want to know
why? Ask Denis Lazure. former chairman
of the NFCUS 'International Affairs
Commission.
But the formula, for those not within
walking distance, is simple. Be an idealist,
work hard at personal expense to give
Canada a recognized voice In international
student affairs. Wander off the beaten
track. Work out a few liberal ideas and
take them to a meeting of representatives
of Canadian university students.
Lazure discovered that the delegates at
the London conference wanted no part of
his ideas or of him either for that matter.
In short, they were not only afraid of hia
ideas— they did not trust him. When the
conference was over, Lazure had been
effectively prevented from having any-
thing more to do with the activities ot
the organization he had worked so hard
for.
There is no doubt that Lazure's ideas
have not found a wide sympathy among
Canadian students. His view was that it
seemed worth taking another crack at
co-operation with the lUS. To this end he
proposed that NPCUS co-sponsor a meet-
ing between the lUS and western unions
to talk the matter over. Our ideas at such
a meeting needed to be clear, precise and
■well formulated, he stressed.
He added quite forcefully: "This mtist
be our last try with the lUS. If we feel
that it is impossible to deal with them,
we should go on and form a new Western
Union,"
The conference agreed with him, in
everything except the idea of acting as a
co-sponsor. And they agreed reluctantly.
Delegates were split on the issue. Some
of them felt that lUS was raising false
hopes in the western unions for a truly
reformed and democratic lUS. They ex-
pressed weariness with the cat and mouse
game that the lUS and the western
unions, including NPCUS, have been play-
ing since the end of the war. They felt
that all this new conciliatory, attitude
meant was another attempt by the lUS
to prevent the western unions from or-
ganizing a strong, counteracting union of
their own.
But in the interests of world student
co-operation, they agreed with Lazure
to try again with lUS.
* Lazure and his report were the two most
controversial factors at the conference.
He wanted to be president but he didn't
have a chance. Even his own university
(Montreal) didn't support him.
There were two reasons for this. First,
the conference was afraid of Denis Letzure,
of his ideas — and his motives. They
wanted to know what his game was, what
lay behind his thinking. They questioned
him minutely at every turn.
It was so bad that he prefaced his
report on the Berhn Peace Festival and
the Warsaw lUS Executive meeting with
these words: "I am not a communist, and
I am not leaving my studies to go into
politics."
Lazure had attended these events alone,
WINTROB
and because of this he asked the con-
ference to accept his report in the sincere
spirit in which it was offered. "I feel I
must state the facts as best I can," he
said.
Reason number two is an important
one. though outwardly simple. He did too
good a job. His contacts throughout the
world were wide. He had gone to too .
many conferences. His ideas were, to the ■
delegates, more liis ideas than NFCUS'
ideas. He had managed, through personal
effort, to make the International Affairs-
Commission Important, And many dele- ■
gates didn't like it. They wanted national
activities stressed, to show the Canadian
student he was getting something for his
money. They didn't manage to do much
about national program at the conference.
But they still distrusted international
work.
At best it was an uncompromising
attitude.
Though the conference accepted marv7
of his proposals, the delegates never onca
relaxed their distrust of Lazure himself. '
This flared up when it came to electing
officers. He was kept out by a shabby -
display of tactical political manoeuvers.
The issue was whether or not the chair-
men of commissions such as the Inter-
national Affairs Commission were eligible
for office if they were not accredited dele-
gates from a university. The conference
took two stands: they said "no" before
the election (therey . eliminating Lazure
from the race). They said "yes" after the
election, when it didn't matter.
Both Toronto and McGill protested.
McGill made the strongest statement, so
strong that they withdrew it when the
conference threatened to throw it out of
the minutes.
It was the vote of the smaller universi-
ties that caused this turn-about-face.
What were their motives? It was sug- -
gested by one person present that the.'ie ■ "
delegates, distrusting the ideas that .X*
-■Lazure presented, felt they would rather"'
not let him be able to run for the presi-
dency than to have to vote against him.
Wifn Lazure out of the pictm-e, they were
free to change their policy.
A final upshot of the whole messy busi-
ness was the passing of a constitutional
amendment proposed by Toronto to raise
the status of the lAC chairman to that of
a full vice-president with voting privileges, '
The effect of this move would be to put
international student activities of the
NPCUS almost on a par with national
affairs.
Both of these amendments, of course,
must be passed by two-thirds of the
student councils of the universities who
are members of the NFC7US.
Lazure got a raw deal at the confer-
ence for presenting the ideas he did. He
felt that the best interests of peace, and
welfare among students, throughout the
world could best be advanced by not try-
ing to split the student world into two
camps, unless the lUS refused absolutely
to operate as a democratic, representative
and non-political unit.
For his ideas he was maligned and boot-
ed. He did not deserve the treatment he
got.
OUR READERS WRITE
Noblesse Oblige
Editor, The Varsity:
I would like to applaud the stand of the
Hart House authorities as demonstrated
in the poster asking students not to wear
windbreakers and sweaters in the Great
Hall. I would also like to make a few
remarks directed at those who will be
affected by It.
The sartorial question in ■ regard to
recent undergraduates has been giving me
heartburn ever since I graduated (U.C.
'48) and began returning to the campus
periodically for special events. Now that I
am studying here again my gastric condi-
tion has deteriorated.
The other day I saw a freshman whom
I at first took for a "beanery boy" or
perhaps a messenger delivering to the
premises. I was not irritated by this
apparition because of what he was doing
to the University but because of what he
was doing to himself. Apparently students
in the last few years have lost the ability
to divine things for themselves, to get the
feel of new situations. They have to be
told everything. All right then, here it is:
You didn't come to University just to
read books or. learn some skills under the
guidance of a man who had already read
them and learned them. You came here
to become an educated person, a citizen
who would be a credit to hLs community.
If that isn't your purpose, you're wasting
your time here and very probably belong
at a trade school such as the Ryerson
Institute of Technology. You could also
take . a correspondence course and study
in bed — in pyjamas! . . .
. . . There was a time, less than ten
years ago, when a would-be freshman
looked forward to wearing a suit every
day when he got to University; and once
there it made him feel that he had
reached a milestone in his life and was
entering on a new phase of his existence.
I suppose some of the young men on the
campus today didn't even feel a thrill the
first time they put on long trousers.
CKHiies do not make the man, but chang-
ing a man in some external particular
most certainly effects a change in h^ *
mental make-up. The hundreds of us-^*
to which we in western society put uni-
forms testifies to this psychological fact.
To anticipate the inevitable excuse
about finances which is always advanced
now when such matters are mentioned, I
will point out that gaudy shirts, pastel
sweaters, gorgeous leather jackets and'
peculiarly-shaped trousers (which have to
be made to measure) cost much more
than a ready-made suit — with a few ties
thrown in. . . .
... As has been pointed out so many
times, those who attend university are
the privileged ones in society. They mus6
realize that they have assumed the burden
of noblesse oblige: Prom those to whom
much is given, much is expected. A stu-
dent who comes to university merger
hiqiself into a stream of people going
back through history into the Middle
Ages. It is the mark of a creative society
that its people recognize such signifi-
cances, that they see that Ufe Is pre-
eminently not what you make it, but
what you think it.
The Hart House officials will find, t
venture to prophesy, that their restrained
notice will have only slight effect. It is
characteristic of protracted adolescence
to remain insensitive to suggestion. I
think the practice of the fornier Warden
of Hart House, Mr. J. B. Blckersteth,
would bring the quickest results. He would '
go up to a student who was inappropri-
ately dressed and quietly ask him if ha
could not wear a jacket and tie. As 1
observed several times this had just th»
right effect on the student, indiiclng a
certain embarrassment without compen-
sating resentment.
I am certain that the esteem in whiclL
the present Warden is held would guar-
antee similar success if he were to tcr
this "gentle stratagem."

All Varsity For Sure In '52
Casting Will Start This Week
"There wUl definitely be an All
Varsity Revue this year,'* promised
E. A. MacDonald, secretary of the
Stuceats' Administrative Council
yesterday after a meeting of the
AVR Committee, a sub-committee
of the SAC.
Subject to ratification by the SAC
whea they meet on Wednesday,
Jim Guthro, director of the Blue
and White Band will be the pro-
riucer-director of the AVR this
.ar. Ben Wise (IV U.C.). who
was last year appointed to this
I post, found it necessary to resign,
■ and his resignation was accepted
by the committee yesterday. Both
Wise and George McCowan (IV
U C.) promised to give Guthro any
assistance they could.
Another proposal to be set be-
fore the SAC will suggest that an
Assistant Producer-Director, and
directors in charge of Scripts.
Dancing, Scenery and Props, and
Choral Work be appointed ac-
cording to the recommendation of
Guthro. If this is passed, the posi-
tions will be advertised in The Var-
sity. To provide for some continuity
in the shows, this year's Assistant
Producer-Director would presum-
ably be in charge of next year's
AVR.
The dates of the show have been
set for the week of February 11th,
with a matinee on Saturday the
16th. Casting will start this week
as soon as rehearsal space has been
found. Anyone who is interested
in taking any part in the produc-
tion is advised to watch for future
ads in The Varsity.
Quite a bit of work has been dona
on the show during the summer,
and Guthro has some musical ar-
rangements ready, as well as some
scripts. Sets from the last twa
AVR's are in storage, and can ba
made over, so it will not be neces-
sary to start from scratch with the
scenery.
Because of a faUure to get
plans under way early in the term,
there was no AVR last year. Mac-
Donald promises that this will not
I be the case this year.

New System
For Desserts
In Great Hall
The new system of pricing meals
ftt Hart House has confused many
students. Miss M. A. Eames, super-
Visor of food services at Hart
Bouse says the basic part of the
meal is 45 cents again this year,
liut that desserts are now an added
Item. In other words, the increase
In price of the meals varies with
the type of dessert selected.
' Last year the basic menu included
bread and butter, beverage and
One dessert or ice cream. This year
flesserts as well as soup and fruit
juices are extra. However there Is
h greater choice of desserts, usually
lihree or four, instead of the one
test year. And of course second
ftielpings can now be bought.
Mart Mtause^ JCM
Face Price fVar
The campus Is about to experience a price war between the Junior
Common Room and Hart House.
"Hart House prices for coffee, ham sandwiches and other necessities
of undergraduate life, wiU have to compete with the drasticaUy low
prices of the U.C. lAt' Snaclc Bar." announced A. A. Strauss, Literary
Director of the U.C Ut, yesterday. "We are out for students," he went
on, and added that the Snack Bar is "replete with luxurious-living lounge
facilities." „ . ^ J
Strauss stressed the difference in prices between Hart House and
that of the Snack Bar. „ , j. j „
"WhUe Hart House coffee sells at ten cents a cup (includmg wooden
swizzei-stick) Snack Bar coffee in the JCR will remain at the usual
rock-bottom price of eight cents," Strauss said. "SimUarly ham sand-
wiches WiU retain their familiar price of ten cents, although Hart House
Tuck Shop charges twenty-five cents a couple."
It is understood, however, that the tow prices will prevaU only as long
as the Junior Common Room is kept clean and tidy by patrons of the
Snack^Bar^ event that It reverts to its usual dirty-llttle-old-self, the
prices will be raised and the resulting profits wiU go towards paymg for
cleaning help," Strauss said.

It could be termites but there is
too much noise. Perhaps a secret
passage is being dug from China
to North America. But no. It is the '
new channel which is to join the
new heating plant to the old tun-
nel in front of the Physics Build-
ing.
This concrete-lined tunnel, which
will be six feet high and seven feet
wide, is being constructed under
St. George Street for a length of
900 feet. Nothing can halt pro-
gress and so the tunnel runs right
through the basement of 42 St.
George Street, home of the U. of
T. Alumni Federation and the
Men's Infirmary. "Alumni House
doesn't seem the same without its
lawn and front steps." comment
some of the grads.
The new tunnel which will be
used to carry steam pipes and
electric power cables is but one of
a network of some 6,000 feet of
such tunnels under the campus
conducting steam mains, electric
cables, and steam for industrial
processing. When it was being
built last summer, it looked hke a
miniature version of the Yonge
Street subway.
The old heating plant, located
next to the Anatomy Building, is
forty years old and is now consid-
ered outdated and inadaquate lot
the heating needs of the Univer-
sity. With the old plant In opera-
tion there are auxiliary boilers
used to heM the W»Uberg Memor-
ial Building and the Museum, but
the new system will be capable of
heating all of the large buildings
on the campus. A 20 per cent in-
crease in efficiency is expected
with the installation of the new
heating plant.
If you haonen to walk along Rus-
sell Street, west of St. George
Street, the noise of hammering and
rivetting will draw your attention
to a massive framework of steel
girders. The "boiler house." as
the construction foreman calls it.
will contain only two huge steel
boilers, each of which is 16 feet
wide. 36 feet high and 40 feet long,
and auxiliary equipment. Each
boiler will produce 75,000 lbs. of
steam per hour using pulverized
fuel, which will start through the
network of underground pipes at
a temperature of 387 degrees Pati-
renheit. Rather hot.
Six men will manage the equi|>«
ment which has automatic con-
trols and should be ready for oih
eration next March.
Next year the boilers will be
cut down and no steam will he
produced at the old heating plant.
However, it will be used for gen-
erating direct current for some
years to come.
Eventually electric power for
the whole University will be de-
livered to the new plant from
which it will be distributed at 4,-
160 volts per 60 cycles. i

Tells Meds FrasH
Classics JVeedetl
The message from the Dean of
the Faculty of Medicine to the
Meds freshmen class this year
was based on a passage from a
moderns scholar on the value of
the classics. Dean J. A. MacFar-
lane quoted from UC Principal
Jeanneret's Inaugural address.
Principal Jeanneret had quoted
from Kenyon Cox on the value and
principles of the classicists. Dean
MacFarlane pointed out to the
meds freshmen how the passage
applied to them.
Doctor MacFarlane said that
the freshmen would be bombard-
ed by challenging principles from
science, philosophy and political
thought. He stressed that while
realizing the potentialities of the
new ideas, the student should look
for the connecting link with the
past.
Syd Wax, president of the Med-
ical Society and the Students' Ad-
ministrative Council, told the
freshmen that there is an awful
lot more in life than medicine and
that they should try to lead a bal-
anced life.
The guest speaker at tfae fresh-
man reception in the Women's Un-
ion last night, was Doctor P. F.
McGoey, an orthopedic surgeon at
St. Michael 's Hospital . Dr. Mc-
Goey told the freshmen that they
would not have to worry about the
medical profession becoming ov-
er-crowded as long as the engin-
eers continued to turn out cars.
Dr. McCoey said that a new school
of embalming might be needed to
take care of those injured by the
engineers' inventions.
This year's freshmen class in
medicine numbers 125. a drop of
approximately 25 from last year.
Co-eds are getting scarcer in tba
faculty. Only 12 entered first yeax
while 25 graduated. Wax told the
freshmen that when they reached
their final year— in 1957— they
would wonder at how fast the timo
had flown.
VCF Leaders
Urge Prayer
The Varsity Christian Pellowshfti
executive told the membership that
prayer was the foundation of th*
group and the key to' a successful
year when the VCP met for th6
first time this year at an outdoor
meeting in Hogs HoHow Saturd«7
night.
President Ian Sowton, HI tJ.O,
said that the chief purposes of tm
V.C.P. were that tiie memberstiip
as Individuals would grow spirftu-
ally and that the organization
would help the members to effec-
tively witness to their fellow sto*
dents the reality of th« power «C
Jesus Christ in their daily lives.
VARSITY RUDIMENTS
Coffee With Spirit
^Whether you need a kitchen kettl<
or a complete trouiseou, a Simpsoff
^Shopper !s the best person to help
yyou shop quickly, easily and ploos-
■onHy , in person, by telephone or
mail. You may order through'
yVour local Simpson's Order Office
yOr write directly to Simpson's Shop-'
yping Service in core of the Simpson's
clore nearest you., *
Financial Security, like academic
training, is planned step by step,
and can best be accompiished
through life insurance.
The campus may hold a lot of
new experiences for the freshman,
but above all it will hold a lot of
new people. No statistics have yet
been given out as to the number
of university students there are
per square mile on university
grounds, but someone may write a
thesis on this soon. Or a feature
for The Varsity.
As the freshman has, and will
discover at classes, at football
games, and at dances Varsity stu-
dents come in all shapes, sizes,- and
personality ratings. Round, square,
angular; willowy, stocky,' skinny.
All kinds of psychoses, neuroses,
and phobias are here waiting only
for a first year psychology student
to probe them. There are sad,
happy, ecstatic and intelUgent
types. Most overbearing are those
who smack of savoir faire a hun-
dred feet away. Then some stu-
dents are too shy, while others are
too bold.
What has the freshman in com-
mon with this conglomeration of
people besides an ATL card? He
may lind out the Common De-
nominator on the campus in
week's time. Or he may graduate
— still clueless. But if he's a good
type, an All-Varsity spirit will seep
into him at any football, hockey,
baseball, or soccer game. This is a
zippy Blue and White spirit which
yells 'Toronto, Toronto Varsity'
along with expressions like 'Kill
the referee' or 'Throw the sfamoe
off the field'.
A handshake Is usually a cordial
way of saying "Hello", but on the
campus there are few handshakes
between students. It's usually "Hi,
how about coffee". Statistics are
again vague here on the number of
gallons of coffee consumed In a year
by an average student, but anycaw
can get the facts by experimenting
on himself. ,
Lectures, books, essays, are a8
held in common, and of course pro*
vide immediate food for taK
whenever two types get together
The freshman will also become
either pro or con Skule, depending
upon what faculty he is registered
in. But most of all he'll find him-
self singing "Old Toronto Mothar
Ever Dear" every time the band
strikes up the music.

nged with water for four hours.
Immediately afterwards, they were
cooled down to minus twenty-five
degrees. T^e mechanisms froze in
every ease. Surprisingly enough,
this was not due to water entering
the meters directly, but rather, to
moisture suspended in tbe air. En-
tering the meters, the water was
deposited as hoar frost, and as the
temperature dropped, it hardened.
Later, the meters were tested for
corrosion. Subjecting them to an
air-bome salt solution, Professipr
Wallace duplicated conditions
brought about by cars klclung up
the spray on winter roads, when
salt has been deposited to melt the
ice. Most of the meters were ad-
versely affected, and showed obvi-
ous signs of corrosion.
In sleet and treezlng rain, if the
coin could not be inserted in sixty
secOTids, the machine was con-
sidered as adversely affected. Since
the maximum time an average
person waits before crossing the
street against the light is little
more than thirty-nine seconds, a
full minute is considered the ulti-
mate of patience for Torwito mo-
torists.
Four hundred pounds of street
sweepings, gathered in the vicin-
ity of the University of Toronto,
were carefully screened and refined
for the dust test, TTiis was one of
the most difficult tests to perform
due to the difficulty of creating
and controlling standard dust
clouds. The result, was the fact
that the meters were covered with
dust, not only on the outer sur-
face, but on Uie inside of the
meter, too, so th&t the reading was
completely obscured.
For the impact test, to determint
how much battering the meter
leases can take, a lead ball was
suspended like a pendulum, an4
swung through arcs of one foot M
five. As the arc increased abova
two feet, serious damage occurred.
And then, as it taiese poor park-
ing meters had not suttered enough,
Professor Wallace did some -unol*
ficial testing— passing bent coine?
and slugs into ine com slots and
applying various burgling tech-
niques to break into the coin boxes.
He found that bent coins will be
returned if they cannot pas«
through the mechanism, but on the
subject of slugs and burgling, he
remained completely silent. In any
casie, the professor had the aA*
vantages of machine-shop tooi^
and uninterrupted privacy to carry
out this mission. It would be mon
difficult under standard condition*
LEPROSY
l^cience Notes
There arc five thoocand eases of leprosy In tbe
iforld today. Over two tbousand of these live in
North Amerioa.
X>eprosy, one of the last remsiiui^ outposts to
be conquered by medical science, is one of the
earliest diseases to be described in history. Pro-
bably originating in the Far East or North Africa,
it reat^ed Mediterranean Europe about 500 B.C.
The Roman Legions spread the disease through-
out the remaining parts of the empire. Prom
Europe it was brought to the New World by early
Spanish and Portuguese colonists.
Its persistence and relentless course caused it to^
be generally considered a hereditary disease. How-
ever, in the nineteenth century, Hansen discovered
the causative organism, Bacillus leprae, a long
rod-shaped bacteria closely resembling the tuber-
culosis bacillus.
The method of spread of Lepiro^ is still rather
uncertain. It reaches dangerous proportions in
moist climates where overcrowding, dirt, and
promiscuousness become widespread. The germs
shed in large numbers from leprous lesions pro-
bably penetrate the skin through scratches, insect
bites, and abrasions. One theory suggests that le[>-
rosy is spread by insects, because the living bacil-
lus has been found inside flies, lice, mosquitoes,
and cockroaches. There is some evidence that the
disease may be droplets spread from the respir-
atory tract of certain patients.
Once established in the subject, the organisms
begin their rapid multiplication and the disease
becomes evidenced in one of two forms: the severe
lepromatous type which is characterized by low
resistance, and the milder tuberculoid type which
the resistance of the patient is often able to con-
trol. Early diagnosis is naturally important in the
fight against Leprosy, Clinical examination of
suspicious lesions is made to detect cbanges in ner-
vous sensation and tissue structure. Small areas
from the site are examined microscopically to de-
tect the bacillus.
When the diagnosis has been thus made, the
sentence of Leprosy which is passed strikes ttMf ,
victim with the dread, hopelessness and disgrace of -
centuries. To his mind comes the picture erf the
typical mask face, mutilated extremities, painful
blind eyes, and ulcerated skin of a leper. A life of
death stretches before him. It is as though the
words of the Old Testament are restated for him:
"And the leper in whom the plague is, his clothea
^all be rent, and his head bare, and he shall
put a covering upon his upper lip, and shall cry
•Unclean, unclean.*
"And ttie days wherein the plague shall be in
him he shall be defiled; he is unclean: he shall
dwell alone: without the camp shall his habitation
be."
However, the fntnre is no longer without hope,
for modem drugs such as the sulphones and
streptomycin are showing encouraging results
against this scourge. It is hoped that within our
time the final battle will be fought against Lep-
rosy, a social as well as a physical disease.

Rural Ontario at the turn of the

"High Bright Buggy Wheels."
At a fall camp-meeting of Men-
nonites in the opening pages of the
book we are introduced to Levi and
Betsey SbEintz and their children
Idimbert. Ben and TllHe. For the
most part ttie novel is centered
around seventeen-year-old Tillie
and her realization that her own
happiness lies in a way of life
outside the narrow confines of the
Mennonite faith.
Time's family expect her to
marry Simon Goudie. a farm boy
she has known all her life and go
•with him to the mission field. Al-
though Simon goes to Bible Col-
lege in a large city at the same
time that Tilhe leaves home to go
to a nearby town to take sewing
and music lessons, he experiences

values. Simon only becomes more ) and

The high, bright buggy wheels on
James Thomson by Douglas Grant
Crescent Press, London, 1951.
Professor Grant has written an
accurate and readable account of
the life of the early Romantic poet
James Thomson. A Scotsman by
birth of humble origin. Thomson
attended the College of Edinburgh
and planned to enter the Church.
However, he received some slight
encouragement from his friends
and a notice in London concern-
ing his efforts at writing poetry,
and decided to try his fortune in
London as a writer.
He Arrived In London in 1725 and
in April. 1726 the first section of
his long poem "The Seasons" en-
titled "Winter" was published.
Thomson's ability to describe
landscape and nature coupled with
his gift for expressing simple
sentiments achieved for hiir an im-
mediate popularity which lasted
for over fifty years. After com-
pleting a Grand Tour of Prance
and Italy. Thomson settled down in
London and later in Richmond and
produced during his lifetime five
plays as well as a long poem on
Liberty and a poem to the mem-
ory of Sir Isaac Newton.
Prolessor Grant has been able
to make use of some love letters
poems hitherto unpublished

entertaining part of the book and

Hamilton Buckley, Harvard Vni
Tersity Pres?, 1951. I
Mr. Buckley has added his con-
tribution to the recent spate of
books on the subject of the Vic-
torian Period. In the first chap-
ter we are given a stimulating ac-
count of the paradoxes that beset
critic of this particular period.
'T'he 'Victorians," Mr. Buckley tells
were 'a poor, blind, complacent
people': yet they were torn by
doubt, spiritually bewildered, lost
in a troubled universe. They were
crass materialists, wholly ab-
sorbed in the present, quite uncon-
cerned with abstract verities and
eternal values; but they were also
excessively religious, lamentably
idealistic, nostalgic for the past,
and ready to forego present de-
lights for the vision of a world
beyond. Despite theu- slavish 'con-
formity', their purblind respect for
convention, they were, we learn,
'rugged individualists', given to 'do-
ing as one likes'."

The Victorian poets all felt this
mpulse to preach a message under
the impact of the growing social
consciousness of the times. We can
better understand the didacticism
of these poets if we see them as
primarily trying to shake the ex-
alted personal perspective of the
Romantics and assume some re-

way it is run. "The Victorian Tem-

return to an extremely personal

been well covered by other writers,

The Varsity plans to devote one

Students from all faculties are
welcome to submit reviews.
Books sent from the publishers

become the property of the stu-
dent who reviews them.
Reviewing merely brings to the notice of the public books which
have recently come off the press, and the job of reviewing tends to
become very stereotyped. Anyone can do it (pause for reflection on my
partK But it takes a big mind with a background of reading and experienca
that has been accumulating through the year to be able to dive into th«
realm of lierary criticism and relate what it is reading to what has gona
before. If we can uncover every now and then the casual efforts of such
a mind then this page wiU be justified.
The First
In a
Weekly Series
Dueks and Bull
The Catcher in the Rye by J. D.
Salinger; published by Little Brown
and C, 1951.
If you really want to hear about
it. the first thing you'll probably
want to know is who is Holden
Caulfield and what kind of a guy
is he anyway. You can obtain tJiis
information easily enough by
reading J. D. Salinger's book "The
Catcher in the Rye" but let me put
you straight right from the start.
Where he was born and what his
childhood was like and all that
David Copperfield kind of stuff is
strictly out. I really mean it.
However he says he's six feet
two and a half inches and has a
smattering of grey hair on the
side of his head. He's only seven-
teen but confidentially, he's been
bounced from four private schools
and is at present spending his
time in a sanatorium out west tak-
ing It easy. I don't know how much
you can tell about him from this
and maybe you think he's a kind
of a creep already but I'd sort of
hate to stop now.
Anyway when Holden's teacher
discusses his academic failures with
him and tries to discover why he
can't make a go of things, Hclden
assures him he's a moron. "And
the funny thing is." he tells us, "I
was sort of thinking of something
else while I shot the bull. I live in
New York, and I was thinking
about tbe lagoon in Central Park,
down near Central Park South. I
was wondering if it would be fro-
zen over when I got home, and if ,
it was, where did the ducks go. I'
way wondering where the ducks
went when the lagoon got all
and frozen over. I wondered if
some guy came in a truck and
took them away to a zoo or some'
thing. Or If they just flew away."
Believe me, if you can see past
the countless "goddams", "fer
Chrissakes", and "where the hell-
jas" of Holden's narrative and you
can understand his concern over
the large number of phonies he
discovers in this world, then it's
quite possible that you won't find
him in thf long run half as screw-
loose or half-baked as he appears
at first. Get this — "The best
thing, though, in the museum was
that everything always stayed right
where it was. Nobody'd move. You
could go there a hundred thousand
times, and Eskimo would still be
just finished catching those two
fish, the birds would still be on
their way south, the deers would
still be drinking out of that water
hole, with their pretty antlers and
their pretty skinny legs, and that
squaw with the naked bosom would
still be weaving that same blan-
ket. Nobody'd be diferent. The only
thing that would be different would
he you . . ."
When Holden watches three of-
fice girls from Seattle who have
come to New York for their holi-
days, leave a cheap hotel bar, he
muses, "They were so Ignorant, and
they had those sad, fancy hats on
and all. And that business about
gettmg up early to see the first
show at Radio City Music Hall . . .
if somebody, some girl in an awful- ,
looking hat, for instance, comes all
the way to New York from Seattle.
Washington, for God's sake — and
ends up getting up early in the
morning to see the goddam first
show at Radio City Music Hall, It
makes me so depressed I can't
stand it." Yeah. Holden, we know,
but that's Che way things are.
Sex is something Holden says ha
doesn't 'understand too hot' but hia
reaction to the atomic bomb is
clear and definite. He's glad it's
been invented and if there's ever
anotlier war he plans to go and
"sit right the hell on top of it."
Enough of Holden for the pres-
ent, but a word about hi3 kid sis-
ter Phoebe, a bright roller-skating
skinny ten-year-old who never
misses a trick. She writes books
about a girl detective. loves to ride
the carrousel and takes bel?hing
lessons from her friend Phyllis
Margullies.
In the end Fhoebe stands for one
of the few things that Holden
cherishes — kids. "I keep pictur-
ing all these little kids piaying some
game in this big field of rye and
all. Thousands of little kids, and
nobody's around — nobody big. I
mean — except me. And I'm stand-
ing on the edge of some crazy cliff
— I mean if they're running and
they don't look where the're going
I have to come out from some-
where and catch them. That's all
I'd do all day. I'd just ^ be the
catcher in the rye and all. I know
it's crazy, but that's the only thing
I'd really like to be." Sure, Holden,
the only thing that nobody can be.

WHAT THE BLUES WILL FACE IN 1951
Western
At first glance, the picture presented by this year'g
Mustangs is one of a team shot to pieces by graduation. The
whole first-string backfield of Bob and Don MacFarlane,
Doug Gray, Blake Taylor, and George Arnott has graduated,
along with the right side of the line — ^Elraer Quintyn, Bill
Ford, and Charlie Allan.
Plctnred above is the play that cansed a lot of oonunent and contro-
versy when the Bides paid a visit to the University of Western Ontario
Mustangs last season and suliered a 21-1 defeat.
Bill Bewley reaches (or a pass in the end zone of the Mnstanss, but
doesn't set near it. Bob McFarlane. the guy the City of London
honored with a tea set before the game, makes a taclile before Bewley
can get his hands on the ball. This Is strictly illegal, but the referee
did not sec it that way even though he appears to be looliing straight
at IhB play. This was the Blues' third down, so the Mustangs took over
on their own 25-yard Une and went on to win decisively.
McGill Redmen
McGiU has been hit faii-ly hard by graduation, but unlike
WesLern, they do not appear to have the reserves and inter-
mediates to take their places. Obeck was banking everything
on '49 and '50, and is prepared for the worst this year. We
cetainly do not expect the team that beat Toronto 25-0 in
the home opener here to repeat the performance.
* * *
However, Metras isn't crying, In
fact he is fairly optimistic, and a
closer look will show why. What
Metras* job this year amounts to
is fitting the backfield of last year's
Colts (which were very strong in
the backfield but weak on the
line) to a line composed of return-
Tug Mustangs.
Truant and Vincent return from
the big team last year to the quar-
terback position, but the boy
watch in this position is Bob
McMurdo. McMurdo passed the
Intermediates silly in the Colts'
game in Toronto last year. There
hasn't been a top-notch passer in
the Intercollegiate League since Al
Lenard graduated from Queen's
two years ago. McMurdo might fill
the bill.
Gerry Fitzgerald (185) and
Jacques Belec (180) are pretty well
set at the fullback positions ac-
cording to reports early in the
practice season. Fitzgerald played
Mustang last year, and Belec was
a freshman with the Colts. He went
30 yards through the centre of the
Intermediate line la.st year for a
major, deking Bill MacFarlane
(one of the best defensive backs in
either league) on his pants befor»
going over.
The team is loaded with half*
backs: returning from bench, duty
with the Mustangs last year ara
Murray Henderson and Bob Pierca
(who are also star trackmen) and
Jim Carrol and Jim Black. Carrol
will probably do the kicking. An-
other good kicker and a good b^
for left half spot is Stu Jeromat
Syl O'Hara, another 10-second man,
may make it at right half.
Reg Ort and Miller Gallow, both
200 pounds, return at centre. Milt
Cork, Jack, Wyatt, and Jack
Thompson make up a tough if
some'what light set of guards. Bob
McMonagle returns at left tackle
and Gerry Fewster will probably be
the otlier. Both weigh 200. Bui^«s«
etc., etc. Definitely the team t»
(210) a freshman last year, and
Burns (190) will back them up.
Stronger still will be the enda;
with huge (6'4". 205) Doug Me-
Nichol at one end and Bob Tm>
ner (6'2". .190) at the other. Re-
serves are Don Beatty. Ross Beck,
beat.
Harry Irving has graduated and
left the quarterback slot open.
Geoff Grain is being groomed for
the quarterback position, and will
likely do the kicking. Gene
Robillard, who was originally sup-
posed to sit the season out be-
cause he missed a sup for the sec-
ond time, may be moved from half
to quarter.
The backfield situation, originally
.*te grimmest in the league, has
beeh brightened more than some-
what by the reinstatement of 6'2",
fiOO-pound left halfback Ken Wag-
ner, who was in the same boat as
Robillard. A sup cannot ordinarily
be carried two years at Varsity, but
there is no league rule about it, so
McGiU will get away with it. With
right halfback Pete Robinson and
left half George Valois graduated,
fullback Roy Deshields in the army,
and wingback and place kicker
Fred Wilmot flunked out. the ball
carrying brigade would be pretty
well reduced to zero without Wag-
ner.
As it Is. Dawson Tilley will run,
from fullback and Haskell Blauer
wUl play right half. Jim Mitchener
wil be moved from end to wingback
to take Wilmot's place.
This move will weaken the ends
quite a lot. Dave Caldwell (185) and
George Bossy (180) are the prob-
able starters at end. From tackle
to tackle is where the Redmen are
really powerful. Dave Tomlinson
and Clyde Whitman both scale 215
and can use their weight well, Bill
Pullar. another ex-Ca]^ary Stamp
(along with Tomlinson and Mit-
chener) has been moved over from
guai-d.
WaUy Kowal (215) and Vince
Capogreco (205) return at guard
Bob McLeUan plays his third sea-
son at centre. Intermediates wiU
make up the reserves in these
spots.
^ afternoon the Redmen romped to a 25-0 win over
H.« f**^ ""./""^^ '"'^ y^*" defeats at the hands
of tue Blues from 1939 to 1948.
Gerry Washington (88) is shown dragging down one of the
Redmen, with Al Brown (54) bringing up the rear. The game was

game J.t"°S- They did not really get untrached imtU the return

We hate to consign a great coupe of ex-griders like
Frank Tyndall and Al Lenard to the cellar for a second
straight year, but we can't see that their changes can go any
higher. With every regular tackle, guard, and centre gone,
and a liberal assortment of graduations elsewhere, Queen's
is in about the same position Varsity was in this time last
year. But Varsity surprised everyone and came third last
year, so maybe Tyndall had *

better let the arsenic alone
after all.
Moe Richardson's graduation has
left the quarterback post open, and
Don Griffin, who was put in his
place, broke his arm in the game
with McMaster. That just leaves
a couple of ex-intermediates, but
veteran Don Bahner will liltely be
mo-ved up from the half line to
solve this worry.
Ross McKelvey returns at left
half along with iiis voung brother
Greg from Weston CI. Jack Rob-
erts will he the big man of the
half hue at 164 pounds. Eric Mc-

the best fullbacks in the league.
A bulldozer type of runner, he was
the one Gael that Varsity couldn't
stop here last year.
Two good ends will be back to
fill the spots vacated by Tip Log-
an and Doug Woolley. Harry

-It's the first ^"^^ 5^^" gum-chewing look sexy."
-Not much of a picture, but II you want it (sic), there's gobs and
tubs of the stuff."
*^ These comments, plus more detailed if rather unoriginal descrip-
tions of the anatomical facade of Miss SUvano Mangano. were my
preface to BITTER RICE. The buildup was not off-base, BITTER
RICE is not a well-made film. It Is corny melodrama, but it is a great
deal of fun. And Sex abounds in lusty profusion, always evident and
oJten vulgar.
Apparently BITTER RICE was made by director Guiseppe De Santis
with serious intention. Thats what it says in the handout from the
Intei'national Cinema where the film has had a healthy stay. But I
would suggest the purpose was not so much to cast a discerning eye on
the bitter hardships of the rice workers in Northern Italy. Rather, like
many Hollywood entrepreneurs, De Santis has successfulJ" fulfilled
bis pui'pose to make money.
The parallel to draw with BITTER RICE is not with other Italian
Imports like THE BUCTYCLE THIEF. SHOESHINE, or OPEN CITY.
They were concerned with serious themes and said them effectively.
The parallel is with the products of Hollywood's Howard Hughes, who
made Jane Russell what she is, picture-wise, and is concentrating on
Faith Domergue, another anatomical specimen of smouldering dead-pan
Intensity.
But the frank outright sensationalism of BITTER RICE makes the
haystack heavings ol Miss Russell seem pretty tame indeed. Silvana
Mangano does not act. Although we suspect she might be more able
than the Misses Russell or Domergue. But Silvana reeks sex. In a
pictiu-e in which the mud, the rain and tlie bedbugs are overwhelmed
by extravagant display of bosoms and thlglis. Miss Mangano cavorts
«nd lingers to titillate a sometime.'s pulsating and sometimes embar-
rassed audience.
Her two Jitterbug sequences (not very good dancing Is an expert's
comment) are t*ie earthiest exhibitions seen on recent screen. Miss
Mangano i£ not in the Puritan tradition.

^ But one thing lifted BrTPER RIOE from the criticism that It was
Just an Italian film gone Hollywood in the worst Tvay. This was Doris
Dowling's performance. Miss Dowling. who is the second feminine lead
in BIl'i'KR RICE, had some Hollywood moments of which TIP IN ARMS
comes to mind. In that exuberant musicomedy which introduced Danny
Kaye to movies. Miss Dowhng was an American assembly-line blonde
Jor whom Kaye aspired but didn't get. In a pallid role, Mies Dowling
was a typical vacuous Goldwyn blonde.
In BITTER RICE, however. Miss Dowling has dark hair, speaiK
fluent Italian, and shows some semblance of personality and character.

Detroit (Exchange) — Purchase cards, on sale to Wayne University
students for oue dollar, will mean a suhgtantial reduction on many
articles and services. This plan is organized fcfy the United States
National Student Assosiavion iUSNSA>, the American counterpart
of the National Federation of Canadinn University Students (NFCUS).
Fifty stores in the Detroit area have agreed to honour the cards.
They will allow the students a ten to twenty percent reduction on
euch items as appliances, flowers, clothing and shoe r^airs.
The USNSA has arranged with firms and stores in «niver.sity
areas all over the country for reductions on presentation of these
cards. It is one of the services of the organization to the students and
IB described as a step toward a general economic co-operation program
lor students throughout the United States.
In a report to the NFCCS conference on the possibility of
organizing a similar system frfr universtt>' students in Canada, Fi-ed
Scott (Alberta) former western vice-president of NPCUS, said that
efforts had been st-ynried because of fair trade acts in many
provinces.
He recocnmended that local univerRifey committees should under-
take to organize a purchase card system in their own communities.
If successful, the plan might latel* be extended to a national level,
he said.

The Dirty Word
One of the best comments we have seen
en Peace was carried in an editorial car-
toon in Maclean's Magazine about this
ttme 'last year.
A young man was seen writing the word
•peace" on the sidewalk, while his younger
sister was bawling up at a window;
•IMommy. Cyril's wrote a dirty word!"
Peace, as a subject, and as a movement,
has become Increasingly suspect in the
past few years because of the highly
Organized campaign for i>eace which the
eommunist forces of the world have been
oarrying on. And at one point it almost
seemed that they had indeed succeeded
ta maJcing of peace a dirty woi^, a trap
lor the unwary and a reason for increas-
ing one's RCMP file.
Two events, unrelated in time and pur-
pose, which have occurred in the Cana-
dian student world in the past six months,
Indicate that the Canadian student is not
quite so afraid of peace as some have
maintained.
' The first Incident occurred at the tJnl-
Tcrsity of Toronto last spring, when a
well-organized spring cleaning of the Uni-
Mrsity of Toronto Peace Council was
•WTied out by a group of Toronto engi-
neering students (and others). Sweeping
on a Peace Council that had by and
large foDowed the party line, the "re-
Jonners" carried with them their own
brand of democracy; a knowledge of the
•ouncll's role In the University, and of
Its rules and regulations.
When the smoke finally cleared the
>eform group had carried the battle.
Under the presidency of Denis Bishop,
rv SPS, they plan this year to carry on
the activities of the Council in accord-
ance with the prmciples of the democratic
nations of the world.
They have yet to be heard from this
year.
The second event Involved more stu-
dents. It is a resolution passed at the
recent annual conference of the National
Federation of Canadian University Stu-
dents held in I^ndon, Ont. The text:
The students of Canada realize
that the path of future progress on
the international scene is only pos-
sible withh) the framework of
international peace.
We therefore join with students
across the world In a sincere desire
for peace. We deplore, however, all
forms of peace offers based on
propaganda to further political
aims.
The students of Canada can beat
contribute to world peace by a pro-
gram of action which brings stu-
dents of the world into closer rela-
tionships and understanding and
further by a program of concrete
aid to raise the standards of living
and study of our fellow students in
all parts of the world without
regard to race, color or creed.
Canadian students, by making their
opinions known on a subject so confused
as peace have taken a firm first step.
What is needed now is action. The Uni-
versity of Toronto Peace CouncU should
get to work, And the National Federation
of Canadian Students wiU do weU to back
up its resolution with its proposed pro-
gram of action and concrete aid.

Saciaiism^s Bane
By WILLIAM GLENESK
Fresh from a summer's social work in a Dockland Settle-
ment, in the first of three articles, the writer looks at the
case from an east-end London^ England, slum.
When arch-socialist Nye Bevan stomp-
ed out of the British Cabinet this year
of bare majorities, and almost split the
party, the east end Cockney muttered a
low "Gor' Blimey," and breathed a little
easier. , The mad snowball-roll down social-
ism hill had cotne to a crucial end.
By nature the east Londoner thinks
poles apart from the party he elected to
power. Once past the Tower and Petti-
coat Lane, by tube or up top on the big
bus, I found the people milling about in
a pocket apart from life at large. Here
roamed Dick Turpin and Elizabeth Fry, In
the midst of a sprawling mass of indus-
tries packed into the lines of slums. Few
years have passed since health, the trains
and the mines were sociali.*3d, and the
British mind has verily capsized in the
rush of responsibility thrust upon it since
the war.
Gone with the Dole are poverty, inse-
curity, and the trough of despair from
which so many millions ate before 1939.
Now fed by the hand of the new Wel-
fare State, the fears and inhibitions of
past years have disappeared. But new
ones have stepped into the breach. Bevan
led to a dead end in his One Way Only,
and labour has lost the way. Too much
has been forced upon too many in too
short a time. As T. S. Eliot adroitly saw:
"A thousand policemen directing the
traffic, cannot tell you why you come
or where you go." The Britisher looked
for leaders and he got controls.
As a body he rejected Winston Church-
ill in the post war task, in spite of his
great record in war, because he firmly
believed that Winnie's aims did not co-
incide with his. Churchill was too deeply
committed by his past. That capacity
for ruthlessness which made him a Caesar
in war, removed him. as a candidate for
an era of reconstruction in which imper-
ialism and dictatorship had no place. In
which persons and homes and freedom
with responsibility haa come into their
own. Now in the octopus socialist sta6?
the tentacles of the bureaucrat are slow-
ly winding their grip m and around the
English way of life.
Down by the London docks just east
of the Isle of Dogs, I talked with many
a docker after his day's work as he paus-
ed in the corner pub. "We never 'ad so
much to eat before," said one. and piec-
ing together the jig-saw puzzle of com-
ments, I saw the Londoner very much
aware that never in the history of Eng-
land had he so much of the goods of life
for so little work. Years of bitter strugg'Ie
lifted liim out of serf-like conditions, and
at long last in his new role of respect-
ability and independence, where the
"boss" no longer calls the tune, he has
hedged himself with -a network of de-
fense which bristles with anomalies. Re-
strictive practices, the tale of bricks, the
length of . the stint, all are written In
blood and tears.
For an outsider it may be simple to
say "Let every man give of his best, let
the bricklayer lay as many bricks as he
. can, and let the miner who is fit set the
pace for the rest. We need houses, we
need coal, we need men In unlimited
numbers to produce to their utmost ca-
pacity." For the socialist state to cast aside
the props that have been the laborer's
mainstay for a decade is to take to great
a risk. Yet if the "laborer is worthy of his
hire" in terms of pay, in the vast major*
ity of cases he is not in terms of work.
Solid before the state directive is the
Wall of lost incentive. The question fac-
ing the worker in the grasp of the wel-
fare state is just "Why work?"
In the crucible of war the Cockney,
was lost in the swim for survival wheivV
London sat on the front line. Now h6"T*
has drawn into his shell again, and insul-
ated against the winds of capricious odda
by subsidies, planning, rationing and re-
armament, the man on the labour front
has run head-on into problems he has
never faced before. Decisions are on his
shoulders that were made elsewhere be-
fore. A new age of responsibility con'als
old England, and faced with a new-
found freedom, the city dweller is caught
between two fires, on the one side his
person, and on the other the state. On
his ability to balance and fuse the two
his future life depends. The means are
at his disposal. But the question rem-
mains: "What will the incentive be?"

"La Parcity needs rebels," cried Editor
J. Poppinjay at a mass meeting held in
the boiler room of UC yesterday. "Yes
rebels. — Hot-headed, red-headed, bull-
he a d e d, empty-headed, two-headed,
bloody-headed rebels."
"In short," he went on, "we need heads.
Last year's have "fallen. There are no
more."
"They were all taken away from us
at last year's annual staff barujuet," he
explained. "Due to a regrettable oversight,
which of coui'se I assure you will not
happen again. Tossed Toadstool Salad
was included in the menu."
Poppinjay pointed out that as a result
of this there were numerous vacancies
on and in the staff.
"Freshmen are welcome." he waxed
and waned, "because they are so fresh, so
firm in their aim, so fully-packed with
that rebel spirit. I should not be surprised
at ail if some fresh young th' .g that will
walk into our office in the next few days
will not walk out again in 1955 as Editor-
in-Chief."
At this moment he was interrupted by
Rebel O'Hara, an exchange student from
Crumbling Valley College, deep in thi
South.
"Ah heard you all giving that rebel yell.
And here ah am all. But ah have to warn
you all, ah have nuthin' to offer you —
no experience, no ability, no nuthin'. Jist
mahself."
"No experience is necessary," Poppinjay
replied to this unexpected interruption.
"We will train you."
"To get on with what I was saying, we
need rebels. Pull-blooded, red-blooded
rebels."
At this point, some third year Modern
History students in the audience began
to chant "We wan^ Riel."
The climax of the meeting came when
Agatha Pipewater jumped up and pro-
claimed in a tense, terse, trembling voice—
"I have written a poem for the occa-
sion:
"Rebels, rebels.
Be not pebbles,
If we can't FIGHT
Then — WRITEt"
The meeting was ended, by the N.W.MP.

Editor, The Varsity:
With regard to Harold B, Atlin's ver*

People's College wish to disagree with hia
extremely snobbish attitude. We are
proud to state that at the University of
Toronto the mind, not the attire is fore-

We find his arguments ludicrous! Is
it to be expected that all students, many
of them in not too stable financial cir-
cumstances shouljl wear their "Sunday

No one possessing such unfounded ar-

such a letter in any spirit other than
one of merriment. Such narrow-minded

The External Affairs Commission of the Stu-
dents Administrative Council recommended last
night that there be a campaign on the campus
for overseas student relief, to be administered
through the facilities of the International Student
Service. This campaign will follow the general out-
lines of last year's AU Varsity Aid campa n. but
the details will be handled by . a sub-committee of
the EJV.C, subject to ratification by the Com-
mission.
The two main principles of the campaign will be
to collect a minimum of $10,000, and to give the
contributors a clear and reliable report on how
their money will be used. For this last purpose it
was suggested that all money collected go through
the SAC office, and that, if all the funds are
given to 133, at least 50% be designated by the
campaign committee to a certain specified area or
purpose, and advertised as such. Of the rest, not
more than 8% would probably be needed by ISS for
administration expenses, and the rest would be put
into their reserve fund to be used for such emer-
gencies as members of ISS decide.
A volunteer sub-committee of EAC formed to-
night to elect a chairman and investigate and
discuss details of the campaign. Their report will
be presented to the Commission for discussion and
amendment. Still to be decided are the nature of
the campaign organization, the new name of the
campaign, and fund rai.sing methods.
Local branches of the National Federation of
Canadian University Students and of the Inter-
national Student Service have merged together
m E.A.C. This NFCUS-ISS co-operation will mean
that the Commission will have many sub-commit-
tees working on matters of common concern to
both groups, as well as those secifically related to
XSS or NPCUS.
These sub-committees will be handling such
matters as providing information on bursaries, ad-
mission scholarships, living e.tpenses, costs of texts,
and job possibilities to students from other coun»
tries planning to enter the University of Toronto.
A committee will be working on the improvement
of student-faculty relations; another, on the pre-
paration and distribution of information about all
sides of the university's activities and character to
interested student bodies all over the world.
Joint ISS-NFCUS Committees will be in charge
of plans for exchange weekends, both here and la
the USA; they will be looking after the problems
of Displaced Person and exchange students; they
will prepare information for student exchanges at
the world university level, and they will be handling
the publicity of the EAC group.
Sid Wax, IV Meds, was acclaimed as chairman
of the International Activities Commission, the
external affairs branch of NFCUS, which is also
working with EAC. The job of the lAC wll be, to a
great extent, to arouse interest in the Edinburgh
Conference to be held January 3rd to 8th as a fol-
low up to the Stockholm Conference (a meeting of
the national student unions of the west held last
December). Wax feels that well informed student
opinion is essential to provide mature student
leadership in developing an independent Canadiaa
point of view in International affairs.
The delegation to the Edinburgh Conference Is
prepared to break with the International Union ot
Students, a communist dominated body, unless
they accept certain Canadian proposals, said Wax.
However, he said that, while this is the time to
break with lUS. if necessary. Canada must produce
the necessary strong leadership.
But Wax said ,hat in the recent NFCUS Con-
ference at Western, two immature points of view
appeared, both indicating that some Canadiaa

crazy it sounds, this and other
such peculiar antics on the part of

question: "Parking on This Side."
Its producers: the members of the
U. of T. Film Society. "Park-

rected by Michael Sanouillet. was
the Society's major production
last year and is bringing wide rec-
ognition to the U.T.P.S. among
other universities and film makers
across the continent.
Every year the Society produces
one or more films, on which any
interested member may gain ex-
perience in whatever phase of
production most interests him. Oc-
casionally workshops are held with
I the sole intention of providing
I practical experience for aspiring
film-makers.

ities is the presentation of a ser-
ies of rarely-shown films of fame

enthusiasts who like to know more
about other opinions of thrf^fUms
In general, and the makers of the

groups are held in conjunction with
the Toronto Branch of the Nation-
al Film Society.
This year the Society will pre-
sent a series of twelve programs
(two more than usual) on alternate
Sunday afternoons during the two
terms at 2.00 p.m. in the Museum
Theatre. Owing to an increase in
expenses this year, the member-
ship fee has been raised from $3.00
to $4.00, but tickets, which were
sold out last year, are going faster
than ever.
The first program (Oct. 7) will
commence with a color cartiwn.
"Inkl and the Minah Bird", which
has charmed even Surrealists,
This was followed by a Chaplin
two-reeler, "The Adventurer", and
the original German version of
"M". Features on following Sun-
days will include. Rene Clair's sa-
tiric comedy, "A Nous La Liber-
te". a fore-runner of Chaplin's
"Modern Times": the 1935 Aca-
demy Award Winner, "Mutiny
on the Bounty", with Laughton
and Gable; "The Childhood of Max-
im Gorki," a Russian film, made
in 1938. of exceptional warmth
and charm; the famous German
silent film, "The Last Laugh",
with Emil (The Blue Angel) Jen-
nings.
The Christmas feature. "Mil-
Uon Dollar Legs" is a W. C
Field comedy.
Starting off the New Year are
three silent features of extreme
variety but consistently high qual-
ity. "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari"
is a fantastic horror film produced
by a group of German Expression-
ist artists and starring Conrad
Veidt as the madman in whoso
mind the action takes place. "The
Passion of Joan of Arc", a French
silent film directed by Carl (Day
of Wrath) Dreyer is famous for the
intensity of its close-up technique
and the superlative performance
of its star, Falconetti. A complete
switch in mood is provided by the
riotous struggles of deadpan Bus-
ter Keaton against a mechanistio
Pate in "The Navigator."
"The Eternal Return", a modem
French film on the Tristan and
Isolde theme, directed by Delan-
noy (God Needs Men) and scripted
by Jean Cocteau. the Ci^ecb "Er-
tase" an experimental film by
Gustaf Machaty , and the 193S
"Camille" with Greta G«rbo. wlU

Two Mice Left At Vic,
Result: Summer increase
Tiny pink noses, peering from
ttie empty vastness of garbage
cans and scurrying up tlie lengths
of the dim corridors, were a com
men sight in the dark confines of
Victoria College's • basement tills
£ununer.
The red-tinged noses bel(»iged to
a score of small white mice.
Slyly tracking the white beasts
among paper boxes, garbage cans,
heating pipes and similar equip-
ment, were the never-say-die Vic
Janitors, armed with sturdy gloves,
patrolling the cavernous basement
hunting their cagey prey, re-
sembling a safari of Clyde Beatty's
best.
The victorious captors, not dis-
posed to cruel brutality, would
snatch up the victims and allow
them to roam at leisure on the
Vic front lawn.
"We arent certain where these
Jittle monsters came from," Vic
Building Superintendent said yes-
terday. He thought perhaps some
keen student had left two of the
beaf.les in a locker at the closing
of last session.
"The mice must have mnltlpHed
rapidly. We found them almost
everywhere — many trapped hope-
lessly in garbage cans, unable to
complete the steep ascent up the
sides of the containers," he stated.
It was once thought that the
mice, usually retained as pets or
for laboratory experiment pur-
poses, had fled from the Medical
Building on the main campus
through the vast system of heat
tunnels. These originate trom the
heating plant adjacent to the
Meds Building.
However, the janitor described
the turmel path the mighty mouse
would be forced to follow —
through Queen's Park, across
Queen's Park Cresc,, then to Vic
Library, Burwash Hall, Vic men's
residences and then to Vic itself.
"Brown mice have managed to
complete the lengthy trek in the
past," he said. He doubted, how-
ever, that the white would have
remained white after a tunnel
journey.
Decreased Sale of Books
Brings End Of Discount
A combination of decreased sales
and rising costs of operation forc-
ed the bookstore to discontinue its
cash discount to students, said Alex
Rankin, General Manager of the
University of Toronto Press, in an
interview yesterday.
The vast purchases of the post
far years, due largely to the heavy
enrolment of veterans had made
it seem possible to institute a dis-
count system. However, "the war
babies have passed on" explained
Rankin, and the decreased enrol-
ment of the university has been re-
flected in the decline of book
sales.
Last year's deficit on the net
operations had amounted to almost
$6,000 and according to tBe gen-
eral policy of the university — no
service department of the Univer-
sity should be operated at a loss-
steps had- to be taken to avoid a
rcurrence of such a large deficit.
Thus disappeared the 5 per cent
discount on student sales.
Studsnts are given a special
price on certain publications of
the University of Toronto Press."
explained Rankin. For example
R. MacGregor Dawson's Govern-
ment of Canada is sold by the Uni-
versity Bookstore for $5.00. The
price in an ordinary bookstore
would be $5.50.
However, there was no discount
given to students on University of
Toronto Press pubhcations and the
"special student price was limited
to a few books. The staff receiv-
ed a discount of 2 per cent.

Peace Treaty
Discussed
By Mayhew
The Toronto Brancii of the Unit-
ed Nations Association was told
last night by Fisheries Minister
Robert W. Mayhew that the public
needs to get the truth about the
Japanese Peace Treaty and that he
was not afraid to tell the audience
what went on in San Francisco.
He told an audience in the Eco-
nomics Building that too often
the public gets, either half truths
or slogans. Mr. Mayhew accom-
panied External Affair^ Minister
Lester Pearson to the signing of the
treaty last month and is going to
Tokyo this year for further dis-
cussions with the Japanese Gov-
ernment.
Throughout his resume of the
conference. Mr. Mayhew stressed
that the treaty was one of recon-
ciliation, not revenge. He said that
while there was no guarantee that
a treaty of reconciliation would
work, punitive treaties have the
seeds of their own destruction
within til em. He hoped that the
long occupation had given the al-
lies sufficient perspective for a
successful treaty with the Japanese.
Mr. Mayhew particularly stressed
the attitudes taken towards the
treaty by the Asiatic countries. He
said that while the 48 nations who
signed the treaty were disappoint-
ed in the absence of India and
Burma, the two countries had given
opposite reasons for staying away.
India felt that the treaty was too
restrictive, while Burma considered
that it was too liberal.
Mr. Mayhew told a member of
the audience that while it was im-
possible for a Chinese representa-
tive to attend the conference,
China was not excluded from
signing a peace treaty with Japan.
Mr. Mayhew said that it was left
to the Japanese people to decide
which government represented
China.
sity of Toronto Press books an^
their relatively Umited sales a-varit
it impossible for them to extendi
their staff discount to students, ex-
plained Rankin. The net loss on
publications last year amounted
to $37,000 (including S17.000 deficit
on the journals printed by the
Press), he said.
The only possibility of reducing
the price of the University of To-
ronto Press books to students
would be to secure a wider cir-
culation. This could be done, said
Rankin, by encouraging other uni-
versities to adopt our texts and
vice versa — in short, encourage
some sort of .standardization of
texts used by 'Canadian universi-
ties. In this way larger volumes
of texts could be produced at one
time, thus reducing the costs ot
production.
At present, there was little pos-
sibility of securing any degree ot
circulation beyond our own uni-
virsity, save in the case of ex-
ceptionally popular books. Rankin
concluded.
Hart House
Fall Dance
NotCancelled
In spite of problems posed by the
Royal visit the following dsfy; tb^ ^
All-Varsity Fall Dance will defir».
itely be held on Oct. 12. Hart House
officials announced yesterday.
At one time it was feared that
the dance would have to be can-
celled because of the difficulty of
cleaning up after it in time tor
the visit of the Princess and the
Duke.
There will be no restrictions on
the lighting at the dance; the uni-
versity electricians will work all
night if necessary in order to clean
up, said Hart House Publicity Di-
rector Gerry Hart.
Tickets for the dance go on sale
tomorrow in the Debates Room, at
$1.75 per couple. Only 900 tick-
ets will be sold.
Four bands will be playing at the
All- Varsity Fall Dance. They will
be Art Hallman. Bob Cringan, Jim
MacDonald. and (in the downstairs
cabaret) Cy MacLean.
Hart also promised what may be
the only pep rally of the yeai-. He
hopes to have the Blue and White
Society, complete with cheerlead-
ers, look in on the dance, which is
the night before the first home
football game.
"This will be the only Big All-
Varsity dance of the fall." waras
Hart. He pointed out that there
would be no Meds Panacea this
year, and fewer Blue and White
Roamarounds.

THE V A R S I T
J^rosh Initiations
By Harold Bnchwald
From The Manifoban, U of Manitoba
Page Three
"«^To^-this correspondent it has al
#.;iys been a source of pride that
- Waaitoba has chosen to welcome
er frosh regally, with pomp, extra-
aganza. and festivity. We believe
hat such freshman welcomes as the
©ne which gets underway next Mon-
day, and lasts throughout the dura-
tion of the entire week, are a great-
er tax on the ingenuity of their
errangers than hazing stunts de-
signed to physically discomfort the
initiated.
■ Canada's Greatest Preshie Week",
is no idle boast, it is a fact, plain
and simple. Hazing celebrations at
other Canadian universities have not
always been good clean fun. as wit-
ness the following mcldent which
took place in September of 1932 at
the University of Alberta.
Upon registration, a certain fresh-
man (whom we shall call "Paul")
was assigned to his room in the uni-
versity residence. The first night he
and other freshmen were forced to
leave their beds and were taken to
another residence building. Their
conductors were an initiation com-
mittee of four sophomores, and a
senior student (in an advisory cap-
acity) appointed by the students-
union council.
At the second residence building,
the frosh were stripped entirefy
nude, and while one sat on the floor
another freshman pulled the first
the entire length of the corridor,
holding him by the ankles. After the
sophmores were sufficiently amus-
ed, they ordered the frosh to take
ler cold showers, and then sent
"fe m to bed.
Tne next morning Paul arid the
rest of his class were taken to one
of the gyms and all were asked a
standard question "What Is the
highest form of animal life?" The
required answer was "A sophomore",
but Paul, for reasons best known
•o himself, persisted in answering
B. Bennett." For some time he
Was hai-assed with this question but
persisted in giving the same answer.
All frosh were given numbers
(Paul's was 213) and were com-
pelled to have their clothing dis-
arranged and their hair cut in a
grotesque manner. Because of Paul's
persistant refusal to answer "cor-
rectly" the above question, he was
singled out for special punisnment.
His hair was cut a second time, and
the letters "R. B. Bennett" were
painted on his forehead with India
ink, he being forbiddent to wash
these letters off without permission.
Thus he took his noon meal in the
students' dining room.
After lunch he was returned to
the gym and re-asked the all-im-
portant question. His answer re-
maining the same, he was thrown
into a cold shower istripped), and
when the letters on his forehead
washed off, the sophomores re-
painted them.
Next, Paul was taken to the up-
per corridor, and, in the words of
the law report, was "skin-nssed"
five times and "hot handed." The
former consisted of dragging him
down the hall nude on his backside
v'as on the first night) several times.
Then a cold shower. After this Paul
was required to stand facing the
wall, stiU nude, while several men-
bers of the initiation commiftee
"harangued" him. His next ordeal
was to crawl through an archway
of committee memlDers' legs on his
hands and knees, being slapped on
the bare bottom as he proceeded.
After this "hot handing", Paul was
sent to yet another cold shower and
then returned to his room.
That evening he was taken to a
mock trial and forced to submit to
a "recantation", where, with ap-
propriate ridicule, he was made to
apologize for his admiiation of R. B.
Bennett. It was at this time that
one of ^he committee members first
noted a certain incoherence
Paul's answers to questions, and he
was taken to bed.
The following day his confused
and abnormal conduct caused his
classmates considerable anxiety, and
after a doctor was called in that

evening. Paul was taken to the uni-
versity infirmirary. Two days later
he was taken to the psychopathic
ward and pronounced definitely in-
sane. By the end of the week he w£is
taken to a mental hospital at
Guelph. Ontario.
About ten months later Paul was
discharged from the Guelph ■j'.sti-
tution. He sued the University of
Alberta, who were found liable, as
the provost of the university had
condoned the initiation proceedings
by not requiring the committee to
show him their plan.s beforehand
(his excuse was that lie was afraid
he might have to prohibit some of
the activities, and this was "against
his policy of discipline").
Evidence at the trial, including
that of Leonard W. Brockington,
K.C.— perhaps Canada's most distin-
guished orator — revealed that Paul
had been a better than average stu-
dent who showed excellent promise,
prior to the initiation. After his
discharge from the asylum. Paul
was never able to stay with univer-
sity education.
At the first trial, Paul was award-
ed damages of $50,000, which Mr.
Justice Ives of the Supreme Court
of Alberta felt might be some kind
of compensation for a shattered
life. On appeal, this figure was re-
duced to $15,000. the learned justices
of the appeal court feeling Paul
was. by 1934, "fully recovered . . .
i^and) as well equipped to face the
world so far as his mental condi-
tion is concerned as he ever was."

I speaking 9f sport
By BRUCE MACDONALD
For the past week this department has concerned itself
with little else than trying to predict the outcome of the
present Intercollegiate football season, a task that any sen-
sible being would avoid on the slightest provocation.
Our remarks, as in the case of all predictions in the
unpredictable world of sports, have been punctuated with
an innumerable number of "if's" and "but's". If the last
few senior Intercollegiate football schedules can be relied
upon as any sort of an example, then it is only too obvious
that the prediction business is in for some lean years.
Last season, 99% of the gilt-edged sportswriting dan in
this part of the country would have bet their shirts that
McGill was going to walk away with the Yates Cup and
would have to flex only a few of their mighty muscles to
do the trick. Perhaps their positive stand on the question
■was aided to some extent by the claim of mentor Vic Obeck
of the Redmen who felt that his "Four Year Plan" was com-
ing to completion right on schedule.
The mighty Red team kept the sportswriters happy
for most of the season. As a matter of fact, it was not till
the Blues held them to a tie in the game in Montreal that
will go down in Inercollegiate history as the Ice Water Bowl
game that there was any hint as to what the real outcome
of the season would be.
' Then the Mustangs, a team with as much talent as
any in the league, finally got its feet on the ground and
proceeded to prove to the Redmen in no uncertain terms
that the Yates Cup was not to be theirs.
With a background like that, a guy is treading on
dangerous ground if he tries to award the championship to
one team or another before the shouting even starts. And
yet there are a few things that we can say without hoWing
our tongues in our cheek,
' For one thing, we fail to see how Western will be as
strong a team as it was last fall. This does not mean that
they may not be the team to beat this season, but any club
that loses a backfield like the one the Mustangs were graced
with is going to feel it to some extent.
'■ McGill as well has lost several key players and will
probably feel the loss more keenly than does Western due
to a lack of depth in several positions. As for Queen's, it is
out considered opinion that a large crying towel is in order.
We hasten to add that we could be as wrong in this as we
have in the past, but from all indications the Gaels have
barely weathered a pretty tough summer.
' That brings us to the Blues, and we will try to be
rational about this. The Varsity line is a good one this year.
That fact is more obvious defensively to date, but there is
no reason why it will not be an effective two-way force
before many more days of practice have passed.
Blue backfielders possess a lot more speed on the whole
than lafitt year's crew did, and on top of that the veterans
from last year seem to have improved a great deal, due
most probably to the keen competition for almost every
position.
' Where will the Blues stand at the end of the season
If they play the kind of ball they did against the Beaches
they will give any club in the league a run for their money
If they turn in the kind of performances that were on display
when they met McMaster last Saturday they are going to
run into a lot of trouble,
i What did I tell you about those "if's" ?

There will be an important meet-
ing of The Varsity Sports Staff
today at 1:00 p.m. in The Varsity

of the sports staff must attend.
Anyone, male or female, interest-
ed in writing sports, who would
like to write in this page should at-
tend this meeting. No previous ex-

next Wednesday afternoon.
Varsity Soccerites
Sign New Mentor
By TOM BROADHUKST
At the close of the soccer season last fall, when Varsity's
Senior Soccer Blues won the Blackwood Trophy for the ninth
consecutive time, the team lost its very popular playing
coach, and ex-Cambridge Blue, Brian Barton. Brian, who
obtained his Ph.D. in economics at Victoria College, switched
his affections to the University of Zurich in Switzerland, by;
joining the lecturing staff there.
The problem then arose of find- cmadian teams ag^st such clubj
ing someone to fill Barton's very
capable boots and to guide Varsity's
Soccer Blues to what is hoped to
be their tenth consecutive triumph.
The man that wiU replace Brian
is Canada's Mr. Soccer. Ted Slade,
Ted is now the Secretary of the
Dominion Soccer Association, a
Job which he has
held for the last ^
two years. He.
and Bill Ent-
wistle of the To-
ronto Daily Star
have been woric-
ing hard at pro-
moting soccer
across the Do-
minion, and di-
recting a lot of
their attention to
the development slaDE
of soccer know
how in the public scnools.
Prior to this Ted was perennial
coach of Ontario All-Star teams,
and also of All-Canadian teams
competing in International tourna-
ments. His coaching experience is
wide and varied, having guided
as Newcastle and Liverpool from
England, and European teams such
as the Swiss Djgarden club in
1&49.
This is not the first time that
Ted has handled Varsity's soccer
teams. Way baclt in 1937, and 1938
when Warren Stevens began his
present Job, and coached the foot-
baU team, and Joe Krol was play-
ing for Western. Ted coached the
Soccer Blues to two champion-
ships in a row, and started them off
on their long road to success that
has yet to be ended. So Ted will be
in the unusual position of carrying
on where he left off In 1939 as ho
assumes his coaching duties this
fall.
As a leading exponent of the
game in Canada, Ted's name is a
household word in Canadian soccer'
circles, and his wide experience
with professional teams in the Old
Country malte him- one of the best
coaches in Canada today. The Soc-
cer Blues are luclcy to have s
coach of his reputation, and should
produce a winning team under hja-
direction.
Half Squad Is Back
For Hockey Season
Although the first pond hasn't
frozen over yet, it's time to talts a
quick glance at the hockey situation.
In less than a month from now an
estimated fifty or sixty hopefuls
will don skates and try out for the
1951-52 edition or the hockey Blues.
This year will see quite a 'ew
new faces on the senior team due
to graduation and a few academic
nlshaps. It is ex-
pected that coacli
Wally Haider will
have about half
>f his interoi-
egiate champions
back for anotlier
season.
Among those l
not returning this '
pear, will be Rich
Howson who last
season captained
the Blues to their
first champion-
ship iii'four years.
His clever piay-
making will cer-
tainly be miised.

of last season, wUl leave a gaping

the picture also. Gerry Fitzlienry

Interfaculty Football
Gets Underway Soon
While football Interest right now
la centered on the Intercollegiate
scene, the University of Toronto
Intramural football league will get
underway in another ten days.
This loop, which is actually tliree
leagues is composed of teams from
the larger colleges and laculties on
the campus.
All ten teams are already prac-
ticing in preparation for this year";
Mulock Cup chase. The Cup, em-
blematic of Intramural football
supremacy was donated by the
late Sir William Mulock back ir
1894 and has been awarded annu'
ally ever since.
Tlie interfaculty loop last year
■was divided into three groups,
Group one was composed of Vic-
toria. SPS Firsts, UC, and Meds.
The Vicsters got off to a slow start
last season winning three close
ones and tying Skule in their first
lour tilts. But the Scarlet and Gold
gof roUlng In their last two s^mes
and trounced both Meds and the
Engineers. SPS came second in
group one, and this put them ihto
the playoffs against Forestry. UC,
the perennial late starters lost
their first four games by close
scores, and then when they had no
chance to make the playoffs, tum-
d aroimd and beat Meds 17-6 and
Skule 22-0. rhe Medsmen finished
fourth, winning only one game.
Group two last year produced
some of the best football seen
around here for many years. The
St. Mike's squad got off to a slow
start, losing their first three games.
But, in the last half of the schedule,
they decisively beat the Junior
Engineers and fought to two thrill
ing ties with the group champion
Foresters.
Group three was very one-sided
last year. Trinity's Red and Black
squad dropijed the opener to Dents
by a 1-0 count on a rain-soaked
field and then came back to win

Mikemen Prepare
For Grid Season
Have New Coach
This year's edition of St. Mike's
Interfaculty Rugby entry promises
to be quite an improvement over
that of last year. With the excep-
tions of Jim McKenna and Jerry
HoUyer who have gone up to the
Intermediates, and star back Bill
O'Heany, the team is practically
intact, and. with the addition o£
some good-looking newcomers^
should do well.
It wiU be remembered that last
year the Double Blue squad finish-
ed up the season in high gear after
a slow start and abnost gained an
upset over Forestry, the ultimate
Mulock Cup winners. This season
they hope to hit their stride early
and if they do, will be nobody's
pushover.

WITH
The Onion Skin
By MAX PARSONS
iortoon by Hugh Niblock,
I ain feeling rural. It's a feeling I like.
T am not feeling rural in the bovine way,
but almost in an anti-urban fashion.
It goes back to last weekend when I
slipped up to Caledon Hills Farm (Hart
House's country cousin) for a day or so.
Tliey were having a meeting on the Pur-
pose of The University. That being far
too intellectual we will not mention it
again. That was the reason I went up how-
ever, and the reason for this rural feel-
ing I have.
It's a couple of years uow since Hart
House persuaded the Board of Governors
to spend some money and buy a farm.
At fii'st crack it seems like a screwy idea:
the farm is forty odd miles away, it is
relatively difficult to get at. and anyway,
what does the kind of institution that
Hart House is (a superior undergraduate
men's club) need with a farm?
No doubt those questions have been
asked by people who don't like farms. Or
this rural feeling. Being nosey I have ask-
ed some questions and there is a philos-
ophy behind Caledon Hill Farm.
To put it as simple as possible it's this:
The men of this university tend from time
to time to root themselves too deeply in
the city. They lose touch with the in-
tense quiet of a cool fall night where the
stars, and not the Toronto Hydro, pro-
vide the lighting. They keep their hands
too clean, and allow too much factory
smoke to coat their lungs. Some of them
even forget what it's like to scrub a floor,
or chop wood. And there's nothing like
indoor plumbing to make a man compla-
cent.
City people start taking too much of
life for granted. They get fussy, and
neurotic. Some even start nursing ulcers.
Tliis is a big country. It has more hon-
est space than most countries. Space that
Tower Of Babel?
^ University College Principal Jeanneret's call for greater
recognition of the classics in arts courses indicates a realiza-
tion of the need for some unifying force in the present frag-
mented course of study to which undergraduates are
subjected.
\' Honour courses currently offer the undergraduate the
importunity to specialize before he has a chance to know ■
what he is excluding. On the other hand, the general course.
Jacking the narrow coherence of an honour course, rather OUR READERS WRITE
resembles a musician who is able to sound several succes- —
»ive notes without producing a tune,
ii* The sin of specialism and of professionalism is the most
besetting one of the twentfeth century. Together they have,
according to the Spanish thinker Ortega y Gassett, "smash-
ed the European man in pieces; and he consequently miss-
ing at all the points where he claims to be and is badly
needed." Yet specialization remains our ideal.
Indeed, even at the university we allow large numbers ^
of students to escape, with diplomas in hand, who have not Bookstore. Rankin, boy. you ve
isn't empty by any means. Space that
only needs imagination (and people) to
make it a vital and integral part of Cana-
dian life. Hundreds of thousands of square
miles of it — all without indoor plumbing,
the Hydro, smoke, or the' dubious bene-
fits of insitutions like the TTC.
The Farm (devotees apparently soon
refer to it reverently thus) Is there for
men whose minds and systems becoma
too cluttered with the city. Tliere Is room
to move around, pools in which to swim,
some caves you can climb down into
(small caves admittedly, but caves), and
plenty of work If you are inclined that
way.
Last weekend It was beautiful in Cale-
don. The sun didn't come out too often
while we were there, and a lot of the time
W;as spent in the intellectual way.
But there were some hours when T
walked out into the fall and had it oub
with this tendency towards the rural
feeling. The rural feeling won.
You can almost see Toronto through
the smoke that hangs over it liV-e a great
cloud if you stand outside^the main house
at The Farm and look 'down over the
ridge. You can definitely feel it, clutching
at you in its own inimitable way. But in
Caledon you become your own master,
and there is time to think a little more
clearly on things dear to your heart.
And then the rural feeling sets in, and
you begin to wonder whether you have
paid your membership in the Hart House
Outing Club (the group that runs The
Farm).
And when you realize you have you can
sit back and relax, for beyond that there
are no problems. There is space to be
alone, and a warm fire for the late even-
ing, and good talk for the wee small hours.
Like I say— I'm feeling rural. And it's
8 feeling I like.

Editor, The Varsity:
Let me take this early oppor-
tunity of raising a glad hossan-
na and a hearty back-slap for

»ven a rudimentary notion of the ideas of modern science
and who have never been required to examine the philo-
gophies which have so deeply influenced the development of
lOur western civilization - — we could go on indefinitely. The
university is filled with large groups of people who have no
notion as to what other equally large groups are studying.
This is true not only of groups such as Engineering, Arts
|ind Medicine, but also of smaller groups within the Arts
^lieges themselves. The Physiology and Biochemistry stu-
dent knows little about the field which occupies the atten-
tion of the Sociology student, and the reverse is equally
tWe have marked off the field of knowledge which in-
rests us so carefully, that we hesitate to extend it even
^ foot. We have forgotten that knowledge cannot be divided
ifaito given areas, than any division is an abstraction and
meaningless unless taken in reference to the whole. We have
assumed too easily that life in the twentieth century is
much too complicated for any one person to comprehend, and
have thereby justified our abstractions.
^ Now, specialism based on a broad background of culture
Is no sin, indeed, it is necessary for the progress of man.
At present, however, the university makes no attempt to
transmit the essential ideas of our time to the students as a
[Whole. There is no common denominator within the uni-
versity— it is simply a hive of unrelated activity.
do — provide a common denominator within the Arts col-
leges at least — by instituting a study of the classics in
translation. In the past, the classics have played such a
part in our western civilization, but the arrogance and self-
confidence of the present day has pushed them aside as
being useless.
' The current judgment on the classics may be a true one.
'Possibly not. At any rate, there is an urgent need for some
gtudy or group of studies which would take the place of the
classics in providing a basic foundation for our pursuit of
}c» )wledge.
done us pround and we're grate-
ful to you ! Let me make this
clear from the start so that there
will be no iil-feeling when I
close this letter with two humble
requests and suggestions.
We're glad to see that Vogue
comes readily to hand on enter-
ing the bookstore. Also World
Sports, and (for the real culture-
vulture) Time and Life, and (for
the frat man) Fortune. How well
you know, Oh Rankin, that many
of the freshmen and sophs in
our midst have a tough time
reading; and searching out maga-
zines by their picture covers
alone can be quite some chore.
So thanks a million for making
life rosy and easy by putting
the magazines right near the
door where they surely catch the
eye in the great big stand.
And we're glad that last year's
discount policy allowed you to
clear out so many of those dull
old books. And the way you
have invested the profits haS
really been something to crow
about. After all the College Out-
line Series are books so they
should keeiJ the local highbrows

A Good Bet?
But now for my humble com-
Perhaps this what Principal Jeanneret would intend to plaints: First, now that you have
gained our regular business by
the old cut-rate* reduction, you
can afford to sit back and take
advantage of your official uni-
versity backing and central loca-
tion. Now you have our business,
by all means cut out the discount.
In fact, by all means cut out the
whole tiresome business of selling
books at all. BUT. why not sell
(along with the penants) second-
hand armchairs for men in resi-
dence? With a discount, etc., you
might even be able to angle the

the essentials of Physics, Biology, History, Sociology and ^^^^^^^ _ sort of moron
Philosopby — subjects which he feels would at least acquaint
the student with the bases of our modern culture. On the
other hand, we might argue that any study which hinged
so closely on modern times would tend to make the student
Jose a sense of proportion.
Editor, The Varsity:
Your article on the NFCUS in
the September 28th edition of
The Varsity aroused my atten-
tion in regard to one section of
the programme — the estab-
lishment of a travel service for
students travelling abroad.
To do this would be a mistake
for several reasons. First, and
most important, travel, and par-
ticularly European travel, a
complicated and specialized
field involving a myriad of prob-
lems to be mastered only by ex-
perience. The sole person able to
cope capably with these prob-
lems is the recognized travel
agent whose only business is the
proper arranging of travel. Per-
haps a good example of the inef-
ficiency resulting from lack of
experience was the stranding of
some 100 American students in
Luxembourg last season. Their
"tour" was sponsored %y Youth,
Argosy Inc., an American com-
pany closely allied with many
US university groups.
Second, most student travel
organizations are "non-profit"
in name jnly. The NPCUS Is
admittedly in the business for
the promotion of its other ac-
tivities and, unwittingly also, fc*
the promotion of its official^
payrolls.
There is, it is true, a parallel
between a student travel service
and the 12-month-a-year, stan-
dard travel bureau — both are
in existence for profit. But there's
a difference in how this is gar-
nered. In the case of the travel
bureau, it comes from commission
figured on the established rate^
paid to thk agent by the line of
which he is an appointed repre-
sentative. Since student travel '
services are NOT agencies of
trans-Atlantic lines their profit
on regular business can only come
from a surcharge on established
rates. The only Instance in which
the student stands to gain is
when passage is on a chartered
ship or plane basis which can
always be arranged by a standard
travel bureau at even lower
rates.
A plea to fellow students ^
don't place yourself in line for A
lot of Inexperienced bungUns.
Stick to the regular travel bu-
reau. In the end you won't rft->
gret it.
Sincerely
James D. GallMUnat

DITOR GRAY RESIGNS
City Council Cheers
Here are seen tbree of the
eager types that have finally
turned nonsense into sense.
Vic sophs June Chandler (rid-
ing tandem) and June Frazer
(be-aproned blonde) make use
of Dick Chamandy's ladder
qualities to help paint one o(
the GECO developments in
lieu of getimg arrested while
pulling some screwball initia-
tion stunt.
Last night the SAC accepted the resignation of
Jack Gray as Editor of l^he Varsity.
Gray tendered his letter of resignation last
montli when he learned that he had not passed
the supplemental exams which would allow him
entrance in the third year of his honor Arts course.
This was the first Council meeting following his
letter. The resignation was accepted 16-1, with Vic
men the only opposing vote.
At the last meeting of the 1950-51 session, the
Council rejected a constitutional amendment that
all Council appointees must make their year. The
members defeated the motion partly because of
a speech by last year's Editor of The Varsity,
Fiank Moritsugu. in whicii he remarked. "Any
editor of The Varsity who missed his year would
feel a moral obligation to resign." Although Gray
was under no legal compunction to resign, he
tendered his notice on the basis of this speech.
However, he stated that he wanted to remain as
E<Utor of The Varsity.
Gray is enrolled as an occasional student so that
he can write his pass supps at the end of the year
and proceed to his degree.
The discussion on Gray's resignation split into
two parts. On the one hand were those who felt
that the SAC should accept it in order to maintain
its "intellectual integrity"; on the other hand were
those who felt that Gray was necessary to put out
the best possible Varsity.
Strongest proponents oE the first viewpoint were
Chuck Hanley. UC, and Bud Trivett, Law. They
felt that Gray could not be editor of The VarsUy
while he was an Occasional student.
"We want a good paper." said Trivett. "We also
want a good football team. But we can't have
football players who aren't emoUed in a course.
F9r the same reason we shouldn't have an Editor
who isn't enrolled in a course."
Chuck Hanley felt that the Council must remem-
ber the university exists primarily for the pursuit
of knowledge, and that schootwork must coma
before estra-ciurricular activities.
"If we are to maintain intellectual integrity at
the University of Toronto, we must uphold that
principle of academic work coming first," he said,
"or the intellectual standards of the university will
suffer."
The opposition viewpoint was set forth by
Graeme Ferguson, Vic; Barb Browne. Managing
Editor of The Varsity, and Frank Moritsugu, last
year's Varsity Editor.
Ferguson said that more important than the
principle of the editorship was the question of
putting out the best Varsity possible. "The Varsity
is not a one-man paper." he said, "and it can get
along without Gray. The question is whether or
not it will be such a better paper with him that
we can afford to ignore the principle,
"I would prefer to have as editor Jack Gray,
with whom 'I disagiee on many points," he con-
tinued, "than someone with whom I agree but
don't have as much confidence in.
"Gray brings experience, firm opinions and
reasonable maturity to the paper." he concluded.
Moritsugu asked the Council who they thought
could serve as an alternative editor, and com-
mented "whoever he or she is, he cannot face tho
problem with the experience Gray brings."
Miss Browne said that no member of The Varsity
staff felt prepared to take over the duties of
editor.
She also pointed out that in previous years

\Paint House
Victoria sophomores have de-

of freshmen initiations into con-
structive channels.
About two hundred Vic frosh,
accompanied by 75 upperclassmen,
painted an Emergency Housing de-
velopment in the north-east section
Of Toronto yesterday.
The freshmen were warned to
assemble at Vic at noon yesterday
with old clothes, and a paint brush,
but weren't told what was happen-
ing. Five buses carried tliem to the
GECO development, near the cor-
ner of Dawes Road and O'Connor.
There they spread themselves
out along corridors, each person
painting his own small section of
ilie wall. By five o'clock they had
used up HI gallons of paint and
had painted the corridors and
washrooms of five apartment
blocks.
It took ten gallons of turpentine

"This job would never have been
done without the students." said

Red Tape Delays Aid
For Jamaican College
A brand new Students' Admini-
strative Council last night made
G K. Searle, applicant for the
Council's aid in rehabilitating
university College in Jamaica,
wait from 7:30 till 10:00 p.m. be-
fore giving him an answer.
After discussing their regular
business and six committee reports,
they passed a motion referring the
question to a session of the Ex-
ternal Affairs Committee, to re-
port to the Council in two weeks.
Mr. Searle will leave Toronto in a
week and a half.
Mr. Searle described the birth
struggles of University College,
Jamaica, founded in 1948. Before
then students from the British
West Indies had gone abroad to
study but the coming of war made
this infeasible. A government grant
of 700 acres of land gave them a
start, and by last June four re-
sidences had been completed, with
several others under way. Includ-
ing a 500-bed hospital.
Then came the storm. Searle
quoted a report from one students
who has seen the wreckage. "Tlie
storm wasn't really bad— it left
most of the floors standing." The
University was right back where
it had started.
"As a representative of Univer-
sity College. Jamaica. I^ani asking
you to do your best to help us out
in this crisis." »^ ^,
Replying to a query in the dis-
cussion following the report of the
External Affairs Committee two
and a half hours after his address,
Searle reported that an appeal to
ISS revealed the following iufor-
maUon. ISS could only act through
international Headquarters in Gen-
eva, and this would have to wait
until students reassembled in the
fall. Nothing has been done by ISS
as yet.
Searle said, "Right now the big-
gest problem we have is getting
the buildii^ program gomg." Tliey
were lacking funds for this, he
said, and were also suffering from
a shortage of equipment. "We
still need a great deal to put us on
our feet."
Although Searle has lived most
of his life In the British West
Indies, he has spent several years
at U of T, and last year moved to
University College, Jamaica.
Located in Jamaica, it Is a re-
sidential college, so as not to give
Jamaicans an unfair advantage
over the other islanders. The college
pays passage for students to and
from the college.
Activities Commission, a subcom-
mission of the National Federation
of Canadian University Students,
last night. Duties of tlie lAC are
to mamtain a relation between
NTX:;US and other national student
unions as well as to act as Canada';
voice in international student af-
fairs.
"We will, of coLu-se, try and make
this programme an association of
the best points of other student
unions on international student
policy," Wax said. However, he
emphasized that it is time for Cana^
da to go to meetings abroad and
take a leading role in policy.
"By developing a Canadian point
of view on the campi across the
country and a mature, well-inform-
ed body of student leaders on in-
ternational affairs," Wax said, "such
leadership is possible."
Similarly he felt that if such a
plan were achieved, the next
NFCUS conference would not re^
fleet the fear, prevalent at the re-
cent meeting, of involving the Ca-
nadian university student body in
international student affairs.
"We are mature enough now to
use our weight and to step boldly
into the international student pic-
ture," he said.
Tiie group who will assist him in
his plans. Wax said, will become
experts in the field of international
student affahrs. In effect they will
act as technicians, smoothly and
quickly carrying out the work of
the commission.
One thing I want to prevent,
which has handicapped lAC in the
past, he said, is to have the work
of the commission restricted to one
person, the chairman. For this rea-
son Wax has established this com-
mittee of assistants. He also saw his
proposal to have two vice chairmen
of LAC representing other univer-
I sity regions, adopted* by the recent
NFCUS conference in London
was at this meetmg that Toronto
was given the mandate to take over
the lAC.
Main feaure of the lAC commis
sion on this campus will be the
preparation and mailing of a regu
iar news bulletin on the activities
of the lAC. Wax also plans to or-
ganize a secretariat which will
handle all the correspondence in
Canada and with other national
itudent ujiions atwut lAC affairs.
Finally a committee will seek to
istablish contact with some South-
Sast Asian universities to make ar-
rangements for a visit of a rep-
resentative gi-oup of students to this
country.

The student council is collaborat-

The Vic Bob, which is 79 years
old this year, got its name Irom
the janitor ot the men's residence,
Bob Beare. who held annual get-

cluded in these were songs, skits,
etc. and out of it grew the tradi-
tional all-male Bob show. Usual-

it was cut to skit siae. due to the
introduction ot the Scarlet and

In erder to unity the talent of the

HH Carillon
Has Famous
Ringing Story
The Carillon, the set- of bells in
the Memoria! Tower of Hart HoVjse,
was dedicated on Oct 7, 1927. as
part of the Centennial Celebration
of the University. The chimes were
for the most part bought from the
War Memorial Fund, with the rtst
being donated by individuals. As yet
they are not a full set, but there
has lately been some talk of com-
pleting them. They are now .ilayed
only for Convocation and jther
special events.
There was a time, however, when
, one bell was rung to signal the
hour; but as this rang every hour,
night as well as morning, and was
said to disturb lectures as well as
sleep, there were few pleas for re-
storation when the electrical system
governing the bell's action broke
down. Although no one seems to
know the exact date when this oc-
curred, Mr. Richardson, the caril-
loneur for the last sixteen years,
places it at eight months before
the outbreak of the last World W&r.
He also mentioned a rumour of th^
time that the bell's silence was a
sign of University disapproval of
the world condition, but this latter
he denied emphatically. He agreed
with other sources that there was
little need of, or chance for, the
restoration of the hourly chime.
Gets Oxford
Scholarship
Alex G. Maclnyre, n Pre-Meds
last session, has been awarded the
Oxford Medical scholarship. Uni-
versity President Sidney Smith an-
nounced recently.
The scholarship, won by the 21-
year-old Lucknow (Ont.) undergratt.
is valued at more than $1,000 a year.
The Faculty of Dentistry of Ore
University of Toronto has intro-
duced a new course this yeiu- ui
Pental Hygiene.
The course will be given to %
maximum of ten women students
this year. The necessary qualifica-
tions are ttiat the applicants be be-
tween the ages of 18 and 30 and
have completed their senior
matriculation. There is a limita~^
tion at present as a result of lacit \ ■'
of accommodation in the faculty.
However, it is hoped that in the
near luture the accommodation
will be increased to allow for ft
larger course. '
A diploma in Dental Hygiene will
be given to the graduates and they
will be allowed to practice under
the supervision of a dentist. They
will be specializing in x-rays, clean-
ing and polishing teeth and pro-
moting oral education, both in
dental offices and in public health
clinics.
The subjects on the course ot
study are similar to the regular
course in dentistry with the addi-
tion of courses in hygeology, good
chemistry, ..ocial work and psy-
chology.
It is the immediate result of A
request made in 1943 by the Royal
College of Dental Surgeons of On-
tario to the effect that the Faculty
of Dentistry give consideration W
the establishment of a course along
tbis line. Again, in 1949, the Cana-
dian Dental Association urged that
the same thing be carried out to
the same effect.
"It has been long recognized tha*
there has been a shortage of den-
tists to take care of dental needa
of the public, and I feel that this
course will provide the services
that will relieve dentists of tedious
procedure and provide ser\'ice ta
more people," said Dean R. O.

What's more, the only reason that

gressive outlook of the women. If
there are wocneu who genuinely
have a liking for the field plus a
certain technical ability, they say,
they should be given an equal op-
portunity, both in college and in
the practising fields. They also
felt, contrary to our first young

it more stimulating.
One student, however, strongly
assured me that a female dentist's

unmarried elderly women.

Dropping
Survey Shows
A drop in first year enrollment
was prophesied in a recent survey
of Canadian universities. Reasons
for this have been the increase In
fees in most of the universities and
the end of the post-war rush of ex-
servicemen on D.Vj\. benefits. New
Brunswick has an additional reason
— its high school courses have
been lengthened from four ye&rs
to five.
McGill expects that the decrease
will be very slight, althoug-h late
registration has not yet been com-
pleted. Sir George Williams Col-
lege, the University of Montreal,
and Loyola College also expect to
have about the same number of
tudents as la.?t year. All four have
raised fees ten per cent this year.
The biggest decrease is expected
at the University of Toronto, where
about 1,500 fewer students are anti-
cipated. Its enrollment will still be
higher than any other in Canada—
about 11,000,
Universities throughout western
Canada expect a slight decrease in
enrollment. University of British
Columbia will probably be down
about a thousand students, U. ol
Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Uni-
versity of Manitoba slightly less
than that. The drop in DVA stu-
dents will likely have its greatest
effect upon the University of Man
itoba and on Acadia University, ii
Wolfville. N.S.
Most Maritime universities expect
a drop also. Specially affected will
be Mount Allison and the Univer-
sity of New Brunswick, both of
which Jose many students who are
now obliged to take an extra year
of high school. Memorial Univer-
sity in Newfoundland, contrary to
the general trend, expects an in-
crease in registration. It may be
able to confer the degi-ee of bache-
lor of science this year. Pormerly
it has only been able to give an
arts degree.
Western University enroUmsnt
will not vary much from last year,
report-s indicate. At Queen's how-
ever, it is believed that the number
of_ freshmen will be considerably
below that of last year.

Resignation
haleonj viewpoint
By FRANK MORITSUGU
My review of the combustible BITTER RICE has In two short day*
met many reactions, both complimentary and otherwise. Needless to
say, reaction of any hind is gratifying to a columnist, who often feela
his pearls are bein^ cast into the yawning black maws of indifferent
sows.
One of the more detailed and opposing reactions occupies this spac^
today. Written by Doug Davidson, last year's Cine-matters coluiAnist^5
it is a different interpretation of the Silvana IVIanagano romp. 1 saidi
BITTER RICE was a bad film but fun seeing. Davidson says it is m
good film despite some excesses.
His point about the sisters Dowling is well-taken. But for the rest,
Doug Davidson speaks for himself:
I note with satisfaction that motion pictures in The Varsity at last;
reached the status of Art, Music and Drama and have been granted
accordingly a more spacious and regular coverage by one enthusiastic
but intelligent reviewer (yourself).
In respect to de Santis' film BITTER RICE, however. I conclude
that the view from the balcony differed radically from that from down-
stau's centre. 1 disagree with your statement that RICE is not a
well-made movie and that its parallels are the Hollywood products ofl'
Howard Hughes. Technically the photography is superior to that in
most of the Italian films we have seen in Toronto and de Santitf
dynamic direction can hardly be compared with Hughes' stultifieti
job in. say, THE OUTLAW. His sequence of the workers going into the
rice fields and beginning work is one of the high points of recent
cinaiia and the wliole film has a vividness and vitality which lelt me
feeling as though I had really been there. TYue, the script (the real
weakness of the film) involved unnecessary plot machinations and
melodramatic excesses (especially towards the end) which dragged the
f lira fEt times down to the level of corn and .hysteria. But there was
consolation in the poetry of de Santis' unifying style.
Silvana's rather overwhelming physical make-up was necessary to
the character she played: a young girl who attracted men so easily,
that she could afford to be bor?d with those who could not give her
the glamour of the "real " life she thought existed beyond the confines
of her environment. The tragic naivete of this character was well-
brought out by her vicarious delight in the recounted experiences of-
the older woman, who looked upon the same experiences with complete,
disillusionment. But perhaps tJie best representation of the girl and he»i
empty dream was in the primitive and infectious rhythm and the*
superficial and meaningless riffs of the jazz records she loved to dancff'
to. (The Ameficans have seldom used their own jazz so effectively
And I think, since this is not a musical, the faults in her terpsichorean;
style not only do not detract from the picture but rather add a further
touch of pathos. i
The rest of the score I found unusual and effective also. In fact,
on the whole, I thought it a good film with some bad faults, rather
than a bad film with some interesting highlights. ■ ,
Incidentally. I agree that Dowling's acting deserves credit but
am not surprised to hear that you noticed a noarked change In hear '
since Up in Arms, as the vacuous blonde in this Kaye musical was
not Doris but her sister Constance. Doris played small roles in The
Lost Weekend and The Blue Dahlia before leaving Hollywood to find
better roles in Italy. ij

For Radio
The SAC ratified last night the
tormation of a Radio Committee to
formed of an SAC member as

d.). Harry Giles. IV U.C.. and an
-utive of ex-officio members.
The election of a Chairman for
is committee has been postponed
until a future meeting of the SAC,
when it is hoped that a more rep-
resentative council will be present
The resignation of Newton Reed of
I^mmanuel College from the SAC
and hence from Chaii-m;inship 01'
this committee made this election
necessary.
Martino and Giles had previously
made arrangements for this yea;

the Council.

Tide for dramatic programs and 1

Discussions broadcast over station
OKEY last year. Giles wUl look
after the former; Martino has of-
lered to take the responsibility for
■ the latter.
The committee, consisting of
Giles, Martino and E. A. Mac-
cnald, Secretary of the SAC,
lecommended that casting be done
through various college dramatic
societies. Arrangements have been
made to use station CJRT-FM at
Ryerson Institute to broadcast the
■dramatic productions commencing
on October 15th. Providing the ma-
terial is of sufficiently high stan-'
dard and able people take part in
the broadcasts, radio station CKFH
has arranged time on Sunday after-
noons for the University radio pro-
gram.
i^TTie report submitted to and ac-
cepted by the SAC said — "Mr.
Martino was particularly critical of
Mr. Rasky of station CKEY, who
fluted as moderator of the Round
Table Discussions last year. He said
that lie had been able to convince
the station that Mr. Raskey was not

to a form when light comes from
in front, or in back or whatever.
Become aware of pulse, without
which rhythm could not exist, and
of not the way things are, but their
constant becomingness."
Most people have dead eyes.
Miss Deren claims. They see a
thing as thing and not as the be-
ginning of a consequence or a radi-
ance or of itself as an idea. "There
should be a living contact hetv;een
subject and object, a marriage of
memories to create a new fruit."
And this intense contact and col-
laboration lies at the bottom of the
film the workshop has just com-
pleted. Entitled "Ensemble for
Somnambuhsts," the film explores
the quality and nature of sleep-
walking. Limitless use of space
is made. The dancers are in col-
laboration with the camera it-
self, which travels with them
through free space. The somnam-
bulist is drawn into night life
through a force other than his own
will as a waking person. The film
draws a parallel between tins
laws of motion.
The film, to be given a premiere
performance Friday night at 9.00
p.m. in Cartwright Hall, was shot
at Queensway Studios, where use
of the studio, dressing room,
lights, etc.. was donated free of
charge. Made as most of Miss
Deren's films, with amateur equip-
ment and a "shoestring" budget,
it was begun with- the germination
of an idea, and under the principle
that the best way to teach film is
to do it.
At this point. Patsy, an Irish Ter-
rier, belonging to Miss Deren's
hostess, gingerly wound her way
through the various cameras and
tripods scattered around the room
Looking quite confused about the
whole business, she curled up at
Miss Deren's feet beside ihe wood
figure of a "black girl in search of
God," and licked the big toe. the
only one with nail-polish, of the
fascinating little woman. Miss
Deren lit another cigarette, settled
back, and began to talk about
HaitUan mythology. Voodooism.
and the screen life of cats.

The water spilled off the end of
the black mop with a slow slosh-
ing sound, filled up the cracks in
the broken tile floor and flowed
darkly around the thick brown
soles of a pair of wet work boots
which shuffled beliind the mop and
seemed governed by its various
spiralling movements as it de-
scribed figure eights along its path.
The boots led up a short expanse
of grey wool work socks to meet
the ragged cuff of a pair of brown
tweed trousers, broken half-way
up by the bony knees of the old
man whose pipe-stem legs partially
filled them. Tlie crippled, work-
worn hands which gripped con-
vulsively at the upper portion of
the mop handle in a sporadic ef-
fort to control its gyrations led
along equally pipestem arms

a blue denim shirt and from there

curse as a waiter slips on my life

that what it all means?"

Quebec painters Is now on view and |
it will remain on the walls until |
October 27.
The best paintings were sub- '
mitted by Goodrich Roberts. They
are three landscapes and a still
life. The tiiree landscapes are more
than Quebecian -r- they are quite
Canadian. Their colors are dark
and very vital, their composition
simple and virile. Goodrich
Roberts seems to have found an-
other very Canadian approach to
the country's landscape. He does
not depend on the spectacular
qualities of llie scenery, but rather
on his thorough knowledge of it.
The strength of his paintings is not
in surface simplification of shapes,
but rather in simplification as
achieved by definite and deliberate
wide brush strokes.
Louis Muhlstock's paintings
show great indebtedness to pro-
gressive French painters of the
Nineteen Century. Tneir color it.
unexciting and mellow, their execu-
tion a bit effeminate. Only "The
Home of Grovbert Lane" achieves
both character and impact.
Marion Scott is the experimcnf-
ress in the group. Not only did she
submit canvases in a wide range
of techniques but also of subject.
In '■Figures" and "Fields" she used
human form and nearly realistic
textures. In the two "Stone an(f
Protoplasm" canvases, she limited
herself to organic free shapes. The
monochromatic canvas seems more
•cn'itive, more disciplined and
has a s.ion;^ impact. It also pro-
vides more Interest xli.'.n tV:e poTy-

The Portraits and nudes by Ernst

desired. On the o'.her hand, the
colors of all- the paintings are
rather pleasant and harmonious.

Frederick Taylor's painting's re-
mind the spectator of Norman
Rockwell's Saturday Evening Post
covers. Only perspective and a
very static point of view seem to
be the instruments of achieving a
three - dimensional effect. The
brushworic is rather dead, and also
quite static. Though the scenes are
presented in their full realistic at-
tire, they lack fundamental un-
derstanding. The Nova Scotian
fishing village looks like a newly-
constructed antique, painted sil-
very-grey to appear older.
Probably the most powerful

conception is concerned are those

a clashing harmony, they |.ive ua

the most powerful and dynamic

which change the main theme ot
the painting into a mere back-
drop for these little objects.

Two of them show the dramatie
scenery of Mlregau Island, popu-
lated by small people. This strikes
me as the simplest and a not too
successful solution of showing th«

Fritz Brandtner works strictly in

The exhibtion is quite p'easantly
arranged. It has the advantages
and disadvantages of a small group
show. It presents a cro.ss-section of
a group working under a common
set of stimulants and influences. It
illustrates well the freedom of ex-
pression under these conditions.
Being a sma'l show of a medium-
size group, the show faiU in Ita

II is logical to expect a sixong
influence of Gallic sensitiveness in
a show ot Quebec painters. It is
present. And so is the directness
and masculinity of Canadian
painting at its best. It is evident
that there is a sensitive open-
eyed group of painters working in
and around Montreal. Unfor-
tunately it seems rather difficult to
negotiate individually witii the
painters outside the province.

In McGill Game
ispeaking of §iport
By JACK STURMAN
TliG land-office business that pawn shops are doing along
Queen St. these days seems to be sufficient evidence that a
goodly crowd of Varsity guys and dolls are planning to head
east this big McGill football week-end.
As the season opener looms on the horizon, the ozone
is a-tingle with much speculation. The 1951 Intercollegiate
grid schedule could and probably will be packed with more
drama and surprises than any other six fall semesters you
might happen to name.
A survey (if we are to believe pre-season press reports)
among other coaches in the Intercollegiate seems to establish
thS unanimous awe of Varsity. But playing possum is a
favorite pastime with football coaches so Mr. Masterson and
team — BEWARE!
While Vic Obeck's squad is no longer the ine.Korable
•coujge of a year ago, no opponent would do w^ll to under-
estimate the Redmen clan and its potentiaL
For Obeck it may be too early for tears. Bolstered by
trie reinstatement of pile-driving half-back Gene Robillard
end tlie fleet-footed Ken Wagner, Vic may have the key to a
smart, elusive backfield. And don't forget this Haskell
Blauer chappie whose fancy-Dan ground gaining was largely
responsible for Varsitv's ignominious 25-0 defeat last year
at the Stadium,
Up front too, the McGill villains have some proven behe-
moths to toil for the cause. Top linemen like Dave Tomlin-
Bon and Bill Pullar, who along with converted back-fielder
Jim Mitchener are erstwhile Calgary Stamps, coupled with
hosie-brews Clyde Whitman, Wally Kowal make for a nucleus
front wall of rib-crunching prototypes who all scale well
over 200.
No wonder then, that a guy could rub noses with a
cryslal ball from now until next St. Goofus Day and still
be in doubt about Saturday's outcome.
Bill Bewley's shoulder ailment which figures to keep
him out of Saturday's scuffle is a tough blow to Mr. Master
son and the team. Mr. M. hasn't seen the Yates hardware
since 1948 when Walden, Toogood and Cummings were the
bolts of lightning in the Blues' backfield; consequently los-
ing Bewley for an indefinite period could be no less fatal
than a knife in the back insofar as a Varsity championship
is concerned..
In the oracular role that this preview entails, -we must
no longer quibble nor quail, straddle nor stall. McGill is
dangerous. However, pulling a Drew Pearson, we predict
that despite injuries the Blues' boiling spirit carried over
from last season by Haig, Roberts, Hynbida, Garside, Rum
ball. Bell, Sutherland, Dancy, Hames, Brown. Evans and
Harris will dispose of the Red shirts — but it'll be close,

Bewley Misses Opener^
Obeck Has Troubles
up til! now, Vic Obeck's troubles have originated in his backfield,
what with three starters graduating, one flunking, and one joining the
:irmy. Now he is getting the business up front too. Centre Bob McLellaa
was hurt in the game with Sarnia, and was expected to be out for a
goodly portion of the season.
Tuesday he was given clearance to play in the league opener against
Varsity this Saturday, but the same day the medicos put the nix on star
guard Vince Capogreco. He is obliged to give up football because of an
asthmatic condition. His replacement has not been named, but it will
probably be Garnett Bertrand, a 190-pounder from Los Angeles, Califor-
nia, unless Obeck moves Bill Pullar over from tackle.
» As for Varsily. Bill Bewley, right
half, is definitely out for tiiis Satur-
day. Bob Rumball will probably play
in his stead. The way Rumball has
been playing this year, we should ba
safe in predicting that Bewley
won't be missed too much. Either
Greg McPadden or Geoff White will
share Rumball's position, unlesa
Masterson decides to mo?e McPar-
lane over from left half.
Tiie only other serious injury ia
the Blue camp this week, end Jim
Bell, figures the cracked metacarpel
in his hand will be all right for the
big game.
Quarterback Ollie Mandryk and
Peter Hynbida did not dress for last;
night's practice, but they are not
serious ctisualties. Ollie hurt his
knee a couple of nights ago, and
Hynbida has been getting headaches
fcxr the past few days.

Where To
Put Women
Ob the problems that a gal takes
on when she gets hitched to a
Western undergrad. The hum-
drum household chores of sewing,
baking and making beds she can
endure while hubby is out pro-
curing an education, but when
the old man tells her she can't
go to the football game with him
because Little Stadium is just
what the name implies — too small,
the missus naluially is ready to
blow her top.
Used to be that wifey could
cheer the Mustangs on to victory
with hubby right at her side by
presenting the regular student
ticket plus an extra four bits. But
increased undergraduate enrol-
ment these past few years has
crowded the Western Mrs. right
out oFtAie stadium and she's ready
to string up Metras and Co. if
they don't solve said problem
pronto.
This the whole sordid mess is
further complicated by the dis-
tressing fact that seating at Lit-
tle Stadium is divided into fac-
ulty sections. According to West-
ern Gazetle.Jialf of the under-
giads in Meds are married which
means that the embryo doctors
plus wives would total 320 souls.
But the Meds section have only
170 seats allotted to them. The
only place lo which they could
overflow is the Aits section. But

large number of the staff had assembled to witness
the massacre. Gathering up my various belongings
in confusion and shame, I retreated to the door.

material were not forthcoming, a better name thim
mine would grace the masthead.
Seeking consolation, I Instinctively found myself
seated in the inffpirational department of a neigh-
bouring hotel. While pondering the cruelties of
literary tyrants, a wee small voice recalled me to
reality.
"Pardon me, but your gloom is showing." This,
I swear, came from a diminutive one-celled organ-
ism perched on the edge of my fourth glass. In
anjiwer to my obvious question, it' identified itself
as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, known .to its intimates

"What are you doing there?" I asked,
"That," he said, "is a long story,"'

"Well, you see," he b^an, "it all goes back about

mastery of alliteration, he continued.
'•You start off with barley which is allowed to

into the sugars, maltose and dextrin. The result-

violently into the glass. The account was resumed

I suggested that these were something similar to
Skiilemen, and he agreed.
"It is then," he continued, "a simple matter. The
brew is allowed to age in tanks, after which it is
filtered, bottled and pasteurized."
"Just a minute." I shouted. "If it gets pasteur-

"Good heavens," he gasped, "so I must!" With
these words he expired gracefully on my best lace-

UN Club
This afternoon a meeting will be held to form a new
club on the campus. In most instances this would be a
cause for alarm. There are already too many clubs com-
peting with each other for time and space and people.
Yet in this case it seems like a sound idea. The pro-
posal : A United Nations Club.
Perhaps more than any other political institution
that man has devised, and certainly in the framework of
the world of 1051, the United Nations is something that
thinking persons should know about. '.
They should not only know of it, they should partici-
pate in it. The organizers of the Campus United Nations
have set down as their reasons for adding another club
to the throng the following:
— To inform student opinion.
— To take that opinion and mobilize it behind the
principles and methods of the United Nations.
And to do these things they envisage a group able
and willing to express ftself on world issues. They see as
some of its activities study groups to prepare briefs on
public affair, a possible model General Assembly drawn
from the undergraduate body to debate current world
topics, organization for the celebration of United Nations
Week, which this year comes between Oct. 21 and Oct. 27.
The sponsors of the campus UN feel that to make sure
that the collective strength of the member nations of the
UN is felt, an informed and voluntary association of
people of all political faiths, convinced of the necessity of
building the defenses of peace on strong foundations is
needed. On this campus this involves a group who would
study and support, or reject, the work of the UN.
Those who agree with such a view .should attend the
organizational meeting this afternoon at 4.10 in Room 1,
Trinity College.
Aw Fella's
A married man, besides the purely economic and
family problems he faces today, also finds odd little things
to worry hun.
One of these annoying small things is the business of
football tickets for the wife. He can't get them, unless he
wants to pay the regular shot. And if he does that, then
he will probably have to send her with Old George, who
forgot to get married and has been doing well in insurance.
Most students couldn't afford two tickets in the public
stands.
With more and more people being married, and larger
numbers of them going to university, perhaps it is time
for the Athletic Association to remove its ban on wives.
Following the war, veterans' wives were allowed special
books of tickets.
Students' wives are probably as interested in follow-
ing hubby to the game as were veterans' wives. It may
seem like a small problem. But if the Athletic Association
knew how many unhappy situations could be avoided in
student families by such a small concession, we are sure
they would gladly make it.
It would also make for good public relations. Think
of the value of the publicity shot of our young man, happy
at last, with wife and junior, cheering on the Blues. It is
aomethiog, gentlemen, to consider.
East and West
By FAYE SiMKIN
Tlie primai-y purpose of an International Student-
Service seminar is to develop and broaden personal
cyintacts among students from various countries.
This article will attempt to illustrate how the
organization of thl.s year's session at Limbour, Que.,
with its system of lectures and group discussions,
reinforced this aim.
The lecture-discussion system was adopted not
as an end in Itself, but as a means to promoting
a free interchange of ideas among the students
present. By this method, the lectures estabJished a
basis of fact, while the discussion group gave the
individual student an opportunity to present his
own viewpoint and to learn about the opinion of
jthers.
Lectures were delivered by an able staff that
resided at the seminar for the four-weeks course.
Prof. L. E. M. Lynch, of the Department of Phil-
osophy at the University of Toronto, was director
of this year's seminar, as he has been for the past
two summers.
Along with the lectures, a series of group dis-
cussions was initiated. In this way, small gioups
of students would meet to interchange ideas about
the topics discussed in the lecture.
These "splinter groups" were one of the most
admirable features of the seminar. Composed of
about eight or ten students, the intimate atmos-
phere encouraged students to speak with freedom
and frankness.
Also, by hearing the points of view of others,
most students learned to appreciate and under-
stand the difference in national backgrounds of
the participants.
"Contributions and needs of east and west" was
the general theme of the seminar. The topic was
designed to introduce the Asiatic picture and its
problems to the Canadian, American and European
students. Similarly, western thought and tradition
was presented to the Indian and Pak'istani
delegation.
During the first week of the seminar, a general
survey of recent Asian history was made to
acquaint westerners with the background of differ-
ences that exist among Asia, EJurope and North
America.
^e following week was devoted to an examina-
tion of foreign policies, chiefly Canadian, British
and American, towards southeast Asia. Most
attention was focused on the thorny problem of
China and the clash between British and American
policy in this area.
The major topic discussed In the third week was
the economic difficulties facing the countries of
southeast Asia. Emphasis was laid on the inade-
quacy of the Asia systems of subsistence farming
and land tenui-e.
Students also learned that in some countries
there is a great need for machinery, the lack of
which has completely hindered industrial develop,
ment. Pakistan is a case in point. There, raw
materials have to be exported to India to be pro-
cessed into finished goods, which in turn are
imported back to Pakistan at a great cost.
An excellent lecture on the prospects for the
emergence of communism in southeast Asia
brought the third week's lectures to a close.
Philosophy, religion and metaphysics were the
subjects delved into in the final week. Dean
Lachance, of the department of Philosophy at the
Univeisity of Montreal, was lecturer. In many
ways, this series of lectures turned out to be tha
most stimulating, as each student was made aware
of the different sets of values that govern east
and west.
Interspersed with the regular resident staff were
a number of guest speakers. Blaii- Praser, editor of
McLean's magazine, delivered a talk on Canadian
far eastern policy, in which he stressed the diffi-
culty of Canada's position as a middleman between
the two great powers of the U.S. and Great Britain,
A stimulating lecture on the Canadian par-
liamentary system was given by M. J. Coldwell,
national leader of the C.C.F. Mr. Coldwell
described the workings of responsible government
in Canada, drawing interesting parallels with the
American system of government.
Two other visiting speakers of unusual interest
were the high commissioner for Pakistan, Moham-
med Ali, and the acting high commissioner for
India, P. K. Banerjee. Both discussed the histdries
of their respective countries and the problems. that
their newly-won independence has brought them.
In addition to these talks, there were several
student-led lectures and panel discussions, all jil
them valuable because of the opportunity giv%
to hear all sides of a major problem.
To romid out the seminar program, a number of
trips were arranged to points of interest in or near
Ottawa. The parliament buildings, the national
gallery, the dominion experimental farm, the Inter-
national Pulp and Paper company were all hosta
to curious seminarians.

A Reminder
Readers are reminded that The
Varsity welcomes letters — as long
I'm strolling down the avenue,
nonchalantly mindin' me own
business and I might add there's
nothin' on my mind except a pair
of girl's legs, when wham, bam,
alacazam, who should I meet but
me old uncle T.T.C. He looks at
me; I looks at him, and then we
heads for the gutter.
Dangling our feet over the
curb, me uncle begins to tell me
about his new projection. It
seems he's digging a hole in the
ground because his family's been
yapping that they can't get across
town fast enough. I listens with
intent as he collaborates and I
decides that I'll have to see this
thing for meself. So we sets out
for the centre of attraction, (And
I don't mean the girl's legs.)
It's a battle ground. We hasta
sidestep hundreds of plutocrats,
smoking cigars and wearing steel
helmets. Making our way through
a wall of foremen, we proceeded
to examine the craftsmanship of
the workmen. Their work was as
the busy labor of the bees amid
the flowering countryside and
under the sunshine. Suddenly,
someone yells, "Hit the deck," and
a huge pile-driver peruses above
our heads. On the ground, mud
splatters our kissers and oozes
refreshingly between our toes.
In this same position, I says to
me uncle, "Hey unc; shall we go
below?" He says to me, "You'll
have to one day anyhow." So we
proceeds to crawl to a cement-
shoot, and down we go.
Lookin' about, we sees quite a
Jernt. In fact, I stands back in
amazement, "There, In front of
me, digging into the sand with
their bare hands, were hordes ot
women. I says to me oncle,
"Why are you using women on
this projection?" He says to me,
"Well, we found that a woman's
claws were a lot more efficient
than a shovel."
We wanders about till I sees
a sign which reads, 'Mudslinger's
Paradise'. Looking in, I sees two
old acquaintances of mine, Win-
ston Churchill and Clement Atlee.
Then the chief engineer comes
running up to me uncle T.T.C.
"Hey T.T. some 01 the boys mado
a slight error. They dug along
until they came out of the
ground somewhere on the out-
skirts of Buffalo."
With a rather chagrined look
on his face, and rolling his eyes
perfusely, me uncle exclaimed.
"Watch the tax-payers' money."
I knew what he meant. "Watch
it disappear."
Me stomach begins to roll with
hunger. Grabbing meself a knife
and a piece of bread, that I just
happened to have in me back
pocket, I prepared to leave and
head for the outside wotld. As
I'm goin*, me uncle calls out,
"Where are you going' with that
knife, in one hand, and a piece
of bread in the other?" I
quickly repulsiates, *T'm heading
for the corner ot Yonge and
Bloor to wait for the traffic jam."
And so I takes 30, meifrlendly.

Troubles
Saskatoon, (CUP>— The Umver-
•Ity of Saskatchewan is having stu-
dent union troubles too, the Sheaf,
IB of S undergraduate organ, re-
-fS^rted this week. With enough
money to start construction of the
onion, the university is unable to
obtain a priority for steel from the
federal government.
At present $340,000 has been
collected already, including a pro-
vincial grant amounting to $100,000
Because of the holdup due to the
, tincertaintly of the steel and also
«he international situation, tenders
for the building have not been let.
within the next few weeks a new
Chapel Service to be held one Sun-
day night of each month in the
Vic Chapel, Devereux said. Speakers
will be Toronto and district minis-
ters who, he said, will talt chiefly
on student problems.
It is expected that the leading
parts in the services will be taken
by students. These services are to
be followed by receptions In Wymll-
wood, he said. Between the month-
ly Chapels, meetings to be address-
ed by non-clergymen in Wymil-
wood are planned. The visitors will
speak on different aspects of re-
ligion as seen from a non-clerical
point of view.
The two traditional Vic dancers
are already planned, Devereux said.
The Vic Informal, the annual
"Dance of Romance," is scheduled
for November 30th. This dance will
be open to all students, but Vic-
toria, students will have priority on
tickets from the limited supply.
The Vic At-Home, the "Dance
of Distinction," is scheduled for
February 8th. No information or
the plans lor ticket sales is avail-
able yet.
Saskatoon (CUPl — Old Man
Weather has thrown a dirty punch
at the agricultural community of
the west in recent days, as a
blanket of wet snow descended on
vast stretches of unharvested
crops. At the canipu.s too. the
worst September weather
in years put a damper on
outdoor activities, forcing • the
cancellation of the Prosh wiener
roast, and necessitating the mov-
ing of the Griflith rally to the
gym Wednesday evening. The
welcoming committee was last
seen madly dashing about in an
effort to round up enough snow-
shoes to hold the torch race, irre-
gardless— but without much suc-
cess.
Numerous students were caught
with their optimism up, and were
minus overshoes and winter ap-
parel when the blizzard struck.
Large numbers, even the natives
and atwrigines of these prairie
parts, suffered under the delusion
that ThanksgiviDg week-end was
time (and to spare) to trundle
home and haul up the red flannels,
wool socks, skis, skates and
scrapers. Many were mortified
to find to find themselves with
naught but summer footwear, and
were thus forced to fall back upon
what is lightly . termed, at City
Hall, the Saskatoon Transit ser-
^'student woes during the first
week of classes were thus not con-
fined solely to the siiock ot meet-
ing the profs. It is indeed a bitter
blow, in a weeli of the bursar and
of textbook and supply require-
ments (not to mention the urgent
demands of overworked landla-
dies) to have the elements, too,
turn against tlie harassed student,
already faced with the /jhastly
prospect of a winter term of class-
es, papers, essays, tests, exains.
and the hurly-burly o£ Varsity life,
in general.
Abjuring editorializing as much
as possible in this objective news
report, it is not too much to say
that for our own sake, and for the
sake of the country in general,
we ought to hope and pray, and in
all seriousness prayer might not
be amiss, for a miracle of wea-
ther, a fine long Indian summer
to wind up the fall season.
the complexities ^ clubs, to Justify the trouble cau.sed
them; while the crowds at the
more interesting "spectator sports",
archery, and rifle and pistol shoot-
ing, gave a false impression of tl:eir
normal activity and popularity to
those sincerely interested. As well
as these difficulties, it was found
that a very disappointing percent-
age ot the freshman class attend-
ed.
The Freshman Tours were re-
sumed this year, but instead of be-
ins the only official means of find-
ing one's way about Hart House,
as they have been in the past, they
now will be supplemented by the
"Open Nights" of the various or-
ganizations in tlie building. These
events will be publicized widely,
both in The Varsity and elsewhere,
and all people interested in the
particular activity will be invited,
to come and have a look. In this
way it is hoped that more freshmen
will as soon as possible learn about
Hart House, and its various groups
and activities.

"Coming about . • ■ P"Jl "P

nautical terms that U of T skippers
will be telling their ci«ws m the
intercollegiate Sailing Competition
this weekend. The University of
Toronto is again defending the
Leary Grant Trophy, symbol of
sailing supremacy in Canadian
universities.
U of T has held the trophy ever
y^^ince Colonel Leary Grant present-
V ea it back in 1937. The trophy is a
bell about sue inches high and may
be seen displayed in the Hart
House trophy case. It has become
traditional when calling for order
at the Athletic Banquets, to ring
this beU. No doubt the Athletic
Association will have to buy itself
* gavel if Varsity should lose the
trophy this year.
' Colonel Grant was at one time a
Professor of Engineering at Queen's
Vntrersliy. He became interested
in university sailing and in 1937
donated the trophy.
The Intercollegiate Competition,
to be held at the Queen City Yacht
Club at Toronto Island this Satur-
day, and Sunday, is being organiz-
ed by the University ot Toronto
Sailing Club. The competition and
preliminaries leading up to it pro-
vide the only chance for club
members to do some practical sail-
ing while at school. Soon after the
race's end the boats are stored away
for the winter, and members are
doomed to be landlubbers for the
next few months.
But this sad state of affairs has
never seriously bothered the U of T
Sailing Club. Every month get to-
gethers are arranged: talks on
boats, sailing tactics, and personal
experiences as well as movies and
slides help to keep the land-locked
member interested in the coming
season. , ■
The Int«rcollejruite CompeUtian
however. Is still the club's biggest
activity. Varsity's representatives
in the race this weekend will be
Bill Lynn and Wally O'Hara, both
of St. Mike's ir. hi one boat, and
Mike Winlow, S.P.S. IV and Ten-y
Seary Trinity ni, in the other.
Queen's, McGill. and R. M. C. will
each have four men in two boats.
This year the contestants will be
.sailing snipes due to the courtesy
□f the Q.C.Y.C. These are 14-foot
boats carrying two sails.
Activities are expected to get
under way Saturday mormng at
11:00 a.m. The races will be run
off Saturday and Sunday. Good
facilities for viewing the races may
be had from the balcony of the
Q.C.Y.C. At the end of the faces
tliere will tie a banquet at the club
where the trophy will be presented
to the winners. Then the skippers
will go home, boats will be .stored
for the winter, and the Grant
Trophy will rest in peace.

Royal Visit
Over CBC
Hundreds of people will be in-
volv ' in tlie Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation's enormous task of
making on-the-spot broadcasts of
the forthcoming Royal Visit. Plans
call for actuality broadcasts from
some 23 Canadian cities, which will
be made available by the CBC to all
Canadian radio stations, to the BBC
and American networks, and to the
rest of the world in 14 languages
through the CBC International
Service.
The two teams of observers who
will "leap-frog" acorss the country
to broadcast the tour include vet-
erans of broadcasts made during the
Royal Visit ol 1939. The two travel-
ling teams will be preceded by
broadcast engineers to handle tech-
nical preparations, and will work
in co-op>eration with local CBC per-
sonnel at the points of origin ot the
broadcasts.
The broadcast plans include a
nightly "Royal Tour Diary". For
French-speaking listeners in Quebec,
the CBC French network will report
events across Canada. A well-known
woman's commentator will be on
the look-out for fashion news and
other items of special interest to
women.
An attempt to unite the debat-
ing clubs of St. Joseph's and Lor-
etto Colleges failed Wednesday,
with the result that St. Joe's may
try to obtain recognition as the of-
ficial women's debating organiza-
tion for St. Michael's.
At the present time both of the
women's Colleges affiliated witU
St. Mike's have their own debat-
ing club, neither of which can of-
ficially represent the College on
the rest of the campus.
To stop what they called a "de-
finite decline in the women's
debating clubs, St. Joseph debate
officials approached their Loretto
counterparts with the idea of
unification. A new constitution
would be drawn up for the joint
organization, to be called the St.
Michael's College Women's De-
bating Union, and new officers
would be elected. The new con-
stitution would be based on two
existing ones, with some additions
made to make it familiar to tha
men's Senate Club.
Loretto College declined the of-
fer. Their president, Barbara
Lyon, said that while she was in
favor of the union, such a venture
was inadvisable due to the pre-
vailing lack on interest on the part
of Loretto students in their owa
college clubs.
"We must first build up our own
organizations." Miss Lion said,
"before we can think of uniting
with anyone else."
"Since l.oretto has declined our
offer. St. Joseph's will investigate
the possibilities of having their
club declared the official women's
debating organization of St.

Exchange
Business
Excellent
The SAC book exchange on St,
George St. did over $1,600 ^vorth of
business in one day last week, ac-
cording to a .spokesman for the book
exchange. Tlie exchange wUl litccly
start paying off for books already
sold, this coming Wednesday and a
week Friday, October 12.
The book exchange can still use
text books prescribed for University
courses, especially in the fields of
psychology, chemistry, and philoso-
phy. The exchange still has a good
selection in most texts, according to
students working there. They men-
tioned that Dawson's "Government
of Canada", '•Psychology and Life"
by Reuch. '•Principles of Mechanics"
by Seers, and "Calculus" by Philips
are in great demand.
The exchange has .*;econd-term
language texts in stock now which
mu-st be bought witliin the next two
weeks as the book exchange closes
down then. Students can either col-
lect unsold books when the ex-
change closes or leave any texts
which might be sold next year with
the exchange.

Give Meds Lectures
To Norttiern Doctors
A pilot program in decentralized
medical education will be launched i
by the University of Toronto this
month, President Sidney Smith an-
nounced recently. The plan is bein-^
financed by a $4,000 grant from the
"W. K. Kellogg Foundation.
Under the direction of Dr. J. A
MacParlanc, dean of medicine, and
the committee on postgraduate edu-
cation of the Faculty of Medicine,
teams of senior ' medical teachers
will be sent to Kirkland Lake, Port
Colborne and Port Williams -Port
ArUiur to conduct one-day confer-
ences for medical men In those
areas. Six sessicns will be held at
each of the three centres, two be-
fore ChrisUnas and lour after
Christmas.
The doctors will have advance no-
lice of the names and qualifications
of the visiting teachers and in this
way it is hoped that an interesting
conference round can be held on
cases which will be presented by the
doctors themselves, and discussion
will continue on the problems thus
presented. This metliod of teaching
is considered in many ways more
valuable than formal lectures and
paper.*;, and is a method with which
each of the doctors has become
familiar during undergraduate and
interne experience.

One For The Books
AbfHit t'wo years ago. around this time of year,
we were sitLiiit; by our radio on a Saturday after-
noon, twisting the dial in search of an American
college football broadcast, when we caught the
dramatically golden voice of ace gridiron commen-
tator Bill Stern. Natxirally, we paused to listen.
- The broadcast ha& aiready started, although the
game was not yet underway. Stern was going
through the pre-contest routine in his own
inimicable manner, and the chatter went something
like this:
"It's a great day for football this afternoon,
ladies and gentlemen. The sun is shining brightly,
and this 63,000-seat stadium is jammed to capacity.
The bands from both of these great colleges are
out on the field making a very colorful picture.
"We have only a few minutes before this game
gets underway, and in that time I'd like to tell
you about a young man about who we're going to
hear an awful lot "before this afternoon is over."
With this Stem went into one of his famous
behind -the -head lines stories in tliat dramatically
descriptive style for which he has been famous over
the last fifteen years.
"Our story goes back quite a few years, when
this fellow was just a young boy. He was rather
a ssi±)y lad, and one day when he was crossing
the stiett he was knocked down by a truck. An
ambulance rushed him to the hospital, sirens
screaming. He was on the operating table for three
hours while specialists worked on him. FinaJly the
doctors emerged and told his anxious parents that
he had a fifty-fifty chance of living, but that if he
did he would never walk again,
•TVell. that boy lived. And after six monUis in
bed in the hospital he made up his mind he was
going to show the doctors they were wrong. The
same fierce will-to-win which made him live made
him get out of bed and try a few steps. Soon he
was walking around his room; then around the
hospital; then around the block. He began to walk
six and seven miles every day.
"He started practicing running, and before long
he became the fastest runner in the district. But
there was still one drawback— he was still stn&U
and slight of build. When he started high school,
he went out for the football team, but the coach
looked at him and chuckled: 'Sorry, son, we've got
enough -a'aterboys for this year.'
•This didn't stop him, though. When finally the
I
I
coach did give him a chance, he wa.s such a briK
liant performer that by the time he finished high
school, six colleges were bidding for his services.
"Well, that young man ... tat this point there
was the sharp trill of a referee's whistle) . . . AND
THERE'S THE OPENING KIOK-OFP " f ^
And we never did find out who this yoimg maa
was, for Stem went on to describe a very fast
and exciting game, and didn't come beck to hi«
pre-game story. The great BUI Stern was caught
by the whistle, and that was that.
We told the story to many of our friends, get-
ting a great kick out of telling it. All agreed that
it was quite interesting and quite amusing. But
the full narrative is not yet complete.
Last week we received a letter from our good
friend Bob Gardiner, whom many will rememtJer
as last year's president of the tJ, of M. stage
society, erstwhile M.C. at pep rallies, and general:^
a very prominent and popular campus citizen. Bob
is in Montreal with the C.OT.C. (he sails for
England Oct. 5), and over the Labor I>ay week-end
he hitchhiked to New York and back with a friend.
His letter, in part, reads as follows:
"We were standing on the super higlvway jiist
north of the George Washington bridge watching
the limousines roll by in the high 70's and slowly
losing hope of ever getting a lift out of the plaee,
when, four lanes over, a Cadillac of some dimen-
sions honks its horn and pulls over through the
aforementioned four lanes of traffic and stops I«f
us.
"We pile in and tell him where we're going and
he informs us he can take uas as far as PeekskiH.
"Well, friend, after introductions have been dis-
pensed with, the conversation drifts around to foot-
ball and I just happened to think of youi- Uttle
story of the niino is- Notre Dame game when BiU
Stem never finished his tale of the 5 foot 5 inch
wonder who would never play ball 'but came bacit
and starred against the opposing team that day.
•TMs gMitleman appeared to have a head foi
statistics, for he informed me that the play*>r'fl
name was — and I know this is going to spoil one .
of your favorite stories — Buddy Yoiuig of Illinois, '
"So. Bucky. there you are. You finally know
who the dauntless little one is, and I think you can
be pretty safe in assuming that it's the right
name, because the driver of our car is in the sports
announcing racket fellow name of Bill Stem."
HANDBOOK
We Lose, You Lose, They Lose
If you do not patronize our adver-
tisers. This was the rather forbid-
biding opening which met the gaze
of the reader of the University Vets
Handbook of 1917-18. In those days,
the Handbook was presented to the
students by the Young Men's Chris-
tian Association. As such, the pro-
portion of advertising was much
higher than it is to-day. In the
course of its history, the hand-
book was produced by the Student
Christian Movement, and more re-
cently, by the Students' Adminis-
trative CounciL
The Handbook, rightly named,
contains the statistics vital to the
student in general, and the "fresh-
man in particular. F^om its pages
may be learned such things as what
the S.A.C. really is. the telephone
number of an executive member of
campus organization . athletic
programs and requirements, or even
what we did the Wednesday before
the McGill game, if we took ad-
vantage of the space for diary. So
vital is the handbook that it has
been termed the Students' Bible.
This can, however, backfire: A few
years ago a student stopped a fel-
low student one day and asked if
he might borrow his bible. He was
somewhat taken aback when he
was handed a copy of the New
Testament.
Our present edition of the hand-
book owes a debt to its predeces-
sors. Features such as a calendar,
time table, and space for address-
es and diary are common to most
issues. Of interest is the change in
the size of the map of the city of
Toronto. Older editions gave street
car routes and a key to the car
identification system, which in those
days was one of coloured lights.
The 1951-52 edition of the hand-
book is this year distributed free
of charge to each student upon
presentation of his admit to lec-
tures card. One feature of this edi-
tion is worthy of note. This year
for the first time the material is
arranged in alphabetical order.
The Students' Handbook contains
in capsule form much of the uni-
versity life and tradition. From its
pages can be gleaned an insight
into the history of the institution.
The '06- '07 edition contained a sec-
tion ruled for a cash journal — a
feature which indicates time has
not changed the students' lot in
some regards. At the bottom of one
such page, in small print, is writ-
ten "Statistics show that over thir-
ty per cent of the aged are paup-
ers."
At one time the handbook vas
produced for the various faculties.
If you had been talung dentistry
in 1914-15. you would have received
a leather bound handbook with To-
ronto, Dents stamped in gold on tiw
cover.
Browsing through old issues gives
one a feeling of nostalgia. We see
the names of faculty members of
whom we hear in Convocation ad-
dresses. We see the old yells with
which our parents used to express
the same feeling for Varsity which
we do with our present Toronto
yell.

• Tlif rollo«^'"e excerpts from
rresident Con»nf, speech last
month to Ibe American Chemical
Society's anniversary meet-
ing Delivered September 5th in
jjew York City, the talk was
^titled "A Slcepticai Chemist Looks
hnlo the CrysUl Ball."
■ Let me turn to my crystal ban
»nd try and glimpse the outlines of
the balance of the twentieth cen-
toiiy. Ill so doing I wrap the mantle
•f Robert Boyle around me, for (le
iwas the original skeptical chemist,
you will recall. He was skeptical of
the claims of the alchemist, and I
■hell follow in his footsteps to tlie
extent of questioning the prophecies
of some of the modem alchemists, —
our friends the atomic physicists.
■For I see in my crystal ball, — to be
Bure a plastic one, as befits a c4iem-
tcal age, — I see in this instrument
of prophecy neither an atomic holo-
eaiise nor the golden a-bundance of
iui atomic age.
On the contrary. T see woiTied
humanity endeavoring by one poli-
tical device after another to find a
(way out of the atomic age. And by
the end of the century this appears
to have been aocompUshed. but
neither through the triumph of to-
talitarianism nor by the advent of
woi-ld government.
Unless my readinfjs are vitiated
by a huge systematic error, the nejct
fifty years prove that human nature
Is tough and unyielding to a high
degree. Neithei- the forces of good
nor evil pi'evail to the extent that
has been prophesied by some writers
%n ttie la.st few years.
The year 1984, for example, does
not glare with menace in jny crystal
ball. Men and women still continue
be unregriwented in many por-
ons of the world. Paris, Berlin.
Ixjndon, New York, Moscow still
■tand physically undamaged by any
enemy action since World War II.
They\still represent focal points for
diverse i>atlonal outloote, though
the alignment has shitted first one
way and then another since 1951.
The Marx-Lenin d<H;mas are still
honored in vast areas, but so too
are ttie wati^words of the 18th cen-
tury French and American Revolu-
tion.s: Liberty, Equality, Fraternity
Science Predictions
What must be described are the
slow but steady changes In the pro-
duction of energy and food. The era
of liquid fossil fuels is by the close
of the century ooming to an end . . .
A4omic energy has not proved to be
ail expedient way of lengthening
the period in which man taps the
Bources of energy stored in t*ie
eart-h's crust. Solar energy, on the
other hand. Is already of signifi-
cance (by 1976> ... and by the
end of the century is the domlnat-
tactor in the production of in-
dustrial power.
The practical utilization of this
Inexhaustible source of energy, to-
gether with the great changes in the
production of food, has already had
enormous effects on the economic
and hence political relation of na-
tions. With cheap power Xhe econo-
mical production of fresh water
' om sea water became a reality.
;ls was about 1958. and made
more than one desert adjacent to a
seacoast a garden spot . . .
These alterations coupled with
the discoveries about the relation
of dietary factors to the birth rate
amd rapid rise in the standards of
living in nations once overcrowded
seem to provide the new century —
tlie 21st— with an answer to Mal-
/mk
•liO
^Thl
thus. The problem of overpopulation,
while not solved, promises to be in
hand before 2050.
This last forecast may seem to
you clear evidence that my pro-
phetic machinery has gone wrong,
that my plastic crystal ball is crack-
ed. But let me add a microphone
to my equipment and listen in to
what people are saying about this
subject as the 21st century dawns.
They date the changed attitude
when Nehru advocated the establish,
ment of birth control clinics in
India and 1961 when the bio-
chemists made available cheap and
harmless anti-fertility components
to be added as one saw fit to the
diet.
.\s the decades went by and the
20th century drew to a close, the
attitude of the religious leaders of
the world on this subject, so they
say. completely altered without any
diminution cil reUgious feeling , . .
But how did the industrialized na-
tions of the world avoid deindus-
trializing eiich other by atomic
1 Dmbs, you may inquire? Only by
the narrowest of margins, is the
a.iswer; and only because time and
again, when one side or the otner
was about to take the plunge dur-
ing ttie period of intensive ar-
mament that preceded the great
settlement, the expert military ad-
visers could not guarantee ultimate
success.'
Of course, the turning point was
in 1950, the first year when col-
lective .security became a reality. For
when the free world had once made
up its mind to meet each type of
military threat of the Soviet Union
with a defense against that threat
and no longer relied on the magic of
atomic bombs, from that moment
on hopes for an eventual disar
mament revived.
By the middle of the 1950's, I see
balanced forces again at the dis-
posal of the Atlantic Treaty Na- 1
tions. It is then clear in Moscow
that there can be no easy march
to the Channel ports. To be sure,
for a decade or more the series of
battles in different parts of the
globe and the economic sanctions
had time and again nearly precipi-
tated World War HI . . .
Unless my observations are in
error, I find the 1960's a time when
constructive steps away from wars
are first being taken. Fifteen or
twenty years after the first atomic
bomb was fired, a sober appraisal
of the debits and credits of the
exploitation of atomic fission had
led people to decide the game was
not worth the candle.
Of course, experimental plants
were producing somewhat more
power from controlled atomic re-
actions than was consumed in the
operation of the complex process,
but the disposal of the waste pro-
ducts had presented gigantic prob-
lems.— problems to be lived with
for generations. The capital in-
vestment was very great. But quite
apart from the technical difficulties
there was the overriding fact that
the potential military applications
of atomic energy were inherently
inimical to the very nations that
controlled the weapons. A self
denying ordinance seemed but com-
mon sense.
Once the illusion of prosperity for
all thi-ough the slitting of the atom
vanished from people's mind, the
air began to clear. The dividends
from the great discoveries of the 40's
were recognized to have been the
introduction of powerful new tools
of investigation in both pure and
applied fields of chemistry. The suc-
cess of a vast technical undertaking
to make atomic weapons showed
wliat could be done in other radical
departures. The rapid progr&ss in
the utilization of solar energy is
thus seen as a consequence of the
atomic enersy development . . .
Just enough egreement is then
(15 or 20 years from now) possible
in the United Nations to proceed
with gradual disarmament. Just
enough inspection proves to be
possible to enable even the most
suspicious to trust an international
guarantee to the effect that there is
no assemblage anywhere of vast
amounts of fissionable materials and
of guided missiles.
The existing stocks of fissionable
materials are put beyond tlie im-
mediate reach of any nation. The
possibility of wholesale atomic raids
by a nation which treacherously re-
pudiates the treaty is eliminated,
sufficient information at least can
be guaranteed to settle men's doubts
about that sort of war. ( And by
the 1960's I see people unconcerned
about the existence of a few bomhs
more or less in another nation's
arsenal )
Clearly, an industrialized civiliza-
tion could destroy itself and thus
leave the world to those peoples
not yet heavily urbanized and
mechanized. But people are saying,
as I listen in on the 1960's what
sense is there in that? Admittedly
the individual components of thLs
civilization are distrustful of each
other. Admittedly each must pro-
test its integrity if need be by force
of arms, but why continue to live
on an artificial earthquake fault of
one's own making?
The date of the great settlement
I is not clear in my reading o( the
future, but sometime between 1960
and 1960. the climate of opinion
altars. The rearmament of the free
world has done its work. Armies,
navies, planes are still on hand but
the trend is towards less rather than
more military power. . , .
So much for prophecy. Now in
conclusion, let me come down to
earth. . . . The hopes for a de-
creasing emphasis on military force
born in 1945 have proved iilujiory.
The free world is once more threat-
ened by totalitarian aggression. We
now realize that in this century at
least free men can protect them-
selves against disaster only by fac-
ing the possibilities of war realis-
tically. Peace cannot be achieved
through magic either physical or are far more hopeful than they wei«
political.
We have invented machines to do
much of the. labor once performed
by' slaves or serfs, but there is no
mechanical or scientific substitute
for those personal qualities on which
our liberties are based. Ideas must,
if need be, be fought for. Frontiers
must be protected against Invasion
by human beings ready to die if
necessary. And those frontiers are
for us in the United States the
world frontiers of freedom.
When World War II ended we
believed in miracles — some in the
miracles of science that would pro-
tect us mihtarily with a minimum
of inconvenience, certainly without
blood or tears— others believed in
international miracles which have
not come to pass.
It is easy to be defeatist about
the prospects for peace and freedom
,nd to forecast the future only in
terms of a global war. I have ven-
tured to do otherwi.se and with all
sincerity. To my mind the prospects
two years ago.
The peoples of the free world hart
been awakened from their dreams
of an eai;y peace, they have faced
up to the reaUties of the mid-twen-
tieth century. Before long they wUl
be armed and ready. When that
day comes the fear of commimist
aggression will cease to haunt Wes-
tern Europe. When that day cotne^
one can begin to talk about a real
settlement of the international situ-
ation. Ideas that must now be re-
garded as Utopian will once agaitt
have vitality and meaning.
All this may seem to the pessi-
mists among you — those who believe
a third world war to be inevitable —
as to much wishful thinking. But
becau.se I have so much confidence
in what free men can accomplish
when once aroused. I believe that in
spite of grim years ahead this sec-
ond half of the 20th century mar
yet prove to be a period of gradual
disarmament and peace.

balcony viewpoint
By FRANK MORITSUGU
This Is written on a warm almost "sultry" October evening, when
thoughts of books and lectures are submerged by vague romantic
yearnings and a heavy lethargy. It is not a good night for hard
work, but it is probably serving as perfect atmosphere for enticins
"eligible" frosh into the joys of fraternity life.
To the unwary "eligible," one might suggest a careful reading
of Chapter Five of Max Shulman's very funny Barefoot Boy With
Cheek. A less pimgent if more eye-pleasing an entry in the field of
fraternity comment is the 20th Century-Pox film. TAKE CARE OP
MY LITTLE GIRL. It can be seen in the smaller neighborhood
houses now.
Some criticism of TAKE OARE OP MY LITTLE GIRL has cen-
tered on the point that the film seems "childish," much ado about
naught much. This may be so from layman eyes, but to many under-
graduates the unflattering yet brisk and clever appraisel of a sorority
may seem very valid indeed. The actions of the girls in the film
are very silly and childish; at the same time what can be seen these
afternoons and evenings on this campus suggest the actions are also
too true for comfort.
TAKE CARE OP MY LITTLE GIRL Is the story of an eager and
quivering young Preshie who enters college with one purpose in her
fervent heart; to make the Tri U sorority. Her palpitating mother
(a Tri U herself) almost wishes this even more than her daughter.
The Preshie makes her mark, on the campus toy helping the reign-
ing frat BMOC cheat successfully on a Prench exam. As far as the
Tri U types are concerned, she is "made" on the campus. Not only
that, she is a favorite for Prosh Queen.
But she is disillusioned when she gets a glimpse of the phony
sense of values behind the sorority ideals. This is brought to a dra-
matic climax when a mousy pledge is harshly "de-pledged" and
imdergoes a breakdown. Turning her back on the sorority, the heroine
has only one cloud in her newly-found peace of mind. How will
her poor mother take aJ] this? she worries. Delivering the punchline,
hero Joe Blake, no frat man he, says "Mothers have to grow up
sometime too."
TAKE CARE OP MY LITTLE GRL foUows other 20th Century-
Fox films Hke GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT, THE SNAKE PIT,
NO WAY OUT, in outspoken-ness about social problems. When it
was released early in the year, reports were of panic among Greeic
letter societies. This panic was stabilized by a decision to "be calm",
Pratemities and sororities have a reason for being disturbed about
TAKE CARE OP MY LITTLE GIRL. It says the societies have a
very wrong sense of values and are not good. But the film is much
too superficial in it^ approach. The basic problems of fraternities in
democratic society are only' hinted at. But the hinting is usually
clever and sometimes subtle. j
Effective are the portraits of the house mother, the house leader,"
the fashion plate special, and the plain drudge who gets the black-
aU. We laugh at TAKE CARE OF MY UTTLE GIRL and find our
laughter is mixed with pity.
Jeanne Grain is the heroine and she it attractive enough. Helen
Westcott, jean Peters and Mitzi Gaynor are excellent as some of the
many beauteous coeds in the film. I do not know the name of -the
pert young lady who plays the maverick Casey, but it is regretful she
wasn't given more to do.
And Dal Robertson as the true-blue all-knowing hero Joe Blake
Would probably capture the hearts of even the sorority girls in the
audience. If there are any.
Jean Negulesco's direction is sure, the script sparkle, the pro-
duction is handsome and Teclinicolored. There isn't a classroom in the
picture. It is a good evening's worth of movie.
Thee campus film season opens with something new when the
University CoUege French Cine-club opens its season with showings
of QUAI DES ORPEVRES this afternoon and evening. The U. of T.
Film Society opens its sell-out season Sunday afternoon with M, the
German version which brought Peter Lorre to prominence some
years ago.
And downtown, a movie famine has been overcome with the
openings of such stellar items as TALES OP HOFFMAN, SEVEN
DAYS TO NOOIf. PEOPLE WILL TALK, and HOTEL SAHARA.
So, like that gentleman in Vancouver, I guess I'll be seeing you at
the movies, (Fanfare via CBC transcription.)

tetters :
■dJtor, The Varsity:
Agajn it is time for the campus
committees to organize the year's
ftcUvities. Among these activities,
Mid one of the most unknown, is the
Carabin Week-End. This exchange
fcrtween French-speaking Canadians
and English-speaking Canadians is
an attempt by university students
to eliminate the friction between
these two . heritages through better
understanding.
Perhaps the students sitting on
ttiiE committee should stand back
•nd consider the responsibility and
cpportunity they hold m arranging
these weekends. The ultimate pur-
pose of the exchange aims at a vei-y
high ideal — the true spirit of
Iffotherhood. It is easy to create a
auperficial, tentporary feeling of
friendship and union through
■currying bouts of gay social enter-
tainment. But are these lasting,
■olid relationships which we can
turn to in years to come? Let us
tiBve a party, (we all Love them),
Init only one, to celebrate our new
friendships— not to acquire them, to
commemorate our new Ideas,
to form them.
However it is not the programme
•f events, but the calibre of students
chosen which will have the most
Influence in making a successlul
^end. This is not a place for
ty people", but for mature stu-
who realize their responsibility
society, to Canada,, and to their
versity. Perhaps if the various
illeges themselves
students, through personal
..cquaintance, we would overcome
the problem of selecting from names
and written applications.
Let's accept the privilege and re-
sponsibility of our position as uni-
versity students, and make a sin-
cere attempt to develop greater
understanding and tolerance to-
wards our French-speaking people.

Editor, The Vawity:
We saw the announcement about
an All-Vars.ty Fall Dance, tickets
to be sold in the Debates Room.
Hart House. Being co-eds. we were
not allowed into the Debates Room,
so handing our ATL cards to the
porter, we explained our mission
and asked him to inquire about
tickets. We were informed that only
students were allowed to purchase
tickets and attend the dance!
Is there something wrong with
ATL cards of female students, or is
thhere no such thing as a female
student We would suggest to the
dance committee that there are such
things as female students whose
fiances, husband, etc., etc., do not
attend university 1
We think this discrimination Is
entirely unwarranted, and fully out
of harmony with the ideals of a
modern progressive university such
as ours tis supposed to be!).

Editor, The Varsity:
I see that the old controversy
about Hart House attire has
again raised its head. In this
connectjon, students and Hart
House officials may be interested
in hearing the opinions not just
of two or three people^ but of a
whole faculty.
At a meeting of the Forester's
Club in Hart House on Tuesday
night, a discussion was held on
whether the students should be
allowed to dress exactly as they
please, or whether — for the
good of the University and per-
haps the student — some sort of
discipline should be imposed, re-
quiring them to be smarter in
their dress.
Of an attendance of 85. only
9 voted in favor of discipline, and
BO were out-voted by about 8 to
1. Those who were against dis-
cipline gave the following reasons
for their stand:
(1) Some could afford only
one suit, especially after pay-
ing the higher fees this year.
They could see no reason why
they should have to wear it
every day and so spoil it for
special occasions.
they should be forced to dresa
% certain way, even lor their
own good or that of the Univer-
sity.
With all due respect, I hope
this will help all who read it to
obtain a slightly clearer idea of
student opinion. We are not a
bunch of tramps, but we demand
our fiomnrrot-ip jjghts. »

Editor, The Varsity:
I feel that I must beg leave to
protest to you that I was mis-
quoted in your edition of Mon-
day. October 1. At no time dur-
ing the Interview I had with
your reporter did I say that the
Communist influence on Fin-
land was very marked. The actual
facta point to quite the contrary
situation, Finland appears to
enjoy a relatively large measure
of freedom from Russian inter-
ference with her domestic af-
fairs. If the Finns are conscious
of their mighty Russian neigh-
bour it is in a negative way. The
keystone of their poUcy is the
avoidance of any political moves
that will irritate the rulers of
the Soviet Union. For example
we were told by a reliable per-
son that off the record there Ik
an agreement among tlie edit-
ors of the non-Communist press
to eschew the raising of any
controversy in their columns
which would tend to deteriorate
relations with the Soviets.
But l3st any of my readers in-
fer from the above th a t the
Finns live from day to day in an
atmosphere of adject fear of the
Soviet Union let me hasten to
dispel any such notion. The
Finns are above all else realist*.
They want to pieserve their in-
dependence and culture above all,
but since no avenues of positive
action to do so are open to them
in the event of a general confla-
gration, . they are not going to
waste precious time worrying
about the future. They cling to
such national symbols of strength
as tiie late General von Manner-
heim who led their army in the
successful resistance to the Rus-
sians in the Winter War of
1939-40.
I^t me emphasize, Mr. Editor,
that it was this very absence of
Russian influence in Finland's
internal affairs that led some ot
us who visited that country this
past summer to come to the con-
clusion that Russia plans no ag-
gression in Europe in the near
future, for if she did then the
softening up of Finland would be
proceeding apace now since the
potential threat of using Finnish
territory for air attacks on the
Russian hinterland could not be
countenanced by the Politburo.
In short sir. from what I saw
and heard I conclude happily that
Finland is no Czecho-SIovakia!

Editor, The Varsity:
The editorial in last Friday's Var-

on exchange students posed some
interesting questions.
Wasn't it rather strange that the

Most of Team Returns
For New Grid Season
By MAL CKAWFOKD
Tu say that the Blues will be a vai=:tly improved outfit
over the squad which edged out Queen's in the final game
last year to squeeze into second place, would be to echo what
this and every other oaner in the province has been saying
for the past month. With all but seven of last year's. team
back, and a jfood crop of hig-h .whool stars, there is bound
to be imT)ro\'ement.
Head coach Bob Mast-^-son lost his able line coach Dick
Mitchell who went west a le Horace Greeley, to coach at the
University of British Colun'bia. Coaching the line this year
is Dalt White, who led the Intermediate Basketball Team to
the Intercollegiate championship last year.
The team has won three exhibition grames, and has
s>iown powerful ground offensive and much improved tackl-
ing. There are plenty of fast backs and the line, although
light, will be much better. A pass attack and a tight pass
defence have not shown themselves as yet, but passing in
the Intercollegiate league will not likely be up to the level
of Beaches or McMaster, whom Varsity defeated in exhi-
bitions. The other teams in the loon have gone down in cali-
ber this year, and this counled with the Blues' improvement
should make for an exciting season for the Varsity fans.

This Im The 1951 Blue Team
QUAUTERBACK. At the pivot spot this
year JVIasterson has chosen Olie Mandryk
«nd Alec Lawson, a reiil iVIutt and Jeff
combination if we ever saw one. Mandryk
«tands 5'9" and Lawson is 6'5". Olie quar-
terbacked the Intermediates last year and
has the edge in exiierience at the position
over Lav.'son. Both throw a nice pass, and
Bhould start hitting their receivers reg-
ulai ly after a few games.
Olie will miss the McGill game due to
■ a knee injury, so Lawson will doubiless
play all the way offensively tomorrow.
Geoff White can be moved up from half-
back it' necessary.
LEl'T HALFBACK. Bob Dale and Bill
MacFarland will be the speed-boys run-
ning from left half. MacFarlane, who was
the outstanding back »n the Intermediates
last year, was expected to have the posi-
tion all to himself until Dale showed up
so well in training camp. Though only 1-50
pounds in weight, Dale does the 100 in
ten flat and is a very elusive little run-
ner, though Bob figures that he is a little
light for defensive work. MacFarlane
will handle all the defensive plays and
also some of the offensive. Behind them
is Greg McFadden, another ten second
man, who was also with the Intermediates
last yeai.
RIGHT HALFBACK. Bill Bewley and Bob
Runiball are the rightful occupants of this
position, but Bewley is out for an indefin-
ite period with a bad shoulder, and now
this week Kuraball comes u)) with cracked
ribs and is a doubtful starter for lomor-
, row's g«ne.
Bewley weighs 186, all solid football player. Excels
both on offence and defence; Bob Masterson said at the
first of the .season that he improved a little every time out
last year and i.s even better this year. Rumball, 165, the
star of the game against McMaster, was a product of In-
terfaculty football of two years ago and is also much im-
proved this year.
If Rumball doesn't play tomorrow, Geoff White, who
played his first football last year with Vic, will get his big
chance against McGill. Murray Hadlow, 190, has been mov-
ed over from fullback to share the position.
FULLBACK. Bob will two-platoon the fullback position
to some extent this year, using Steve Oneschuk to carry
the ball and Bob Garside to back up the left side of the line.
Oneschuk will also play a little at defensive halfback, may-
be more than a little tomorrow with the halfback situation
the way it is.
Oneschuk is not very big for a fullback, weighing only
170 pounds, but he packs a lot of power in them and runs
like a halfback when he gets in the clear. Steve and Bobby
Dale are two of five freshmen who have won positions on
the team. Garside is a man of very different proportions,
packing 195 pounds on his G'2" frame.
WINGBACK. Al Haig will play this spot most of the way
whde the Blues have the ball, and will do the kicking. He
con do everything (he was a triple threat at Jarvis and with
the Intermediates two .vears ago) Ijut kicking is his speci-
ality. He averaged nearly 45 yards per from the line of
scrimmage last Saturday. Bob Leeming, 185, a fine tackier,
and Tom Bird, 200. another freshman, will also play wing-
back.
ENDS. The situation here is not so good, especially this week
with Pete Hynbida out indefinitely with heartaches. Hank
Tamowski doubtful, and Jim Bell recovering from a broken
hati^. ; I
Al Brown, 6'3", 195, is fit and may be
one of the best ends in the league both
ways this year. Bruce Johnson from East
York, a 6'4", 200 pounder, has been moved
from tackle to end to fill in for Hynbida.
TACKLES. What looked like a weak spot
has turned into a centre of real strength
with the coming of Vince Colizza from
Hamilton Tigers and the decision of John
Evans, voted last year's most valuable
player and team captain this year, to play
in his final year of Meds.
Evans and Joe Harris, both 200 pound-
ers, are expected to play most of the wajr
at tackle, especially on defence. Colizza,
205, and either Eric Jones (a transfer
from McMaster last year) or Dune Ellis
are the other tackles.
GUARDS. The fact that two of last year's
Blues were sent down to the Intermedi-
ates from this position shows just how
good the guards must be. Marshall Hames,
217, and Bruce Miles, 180, will handle
left guard. Hames has been a little late
getting in shape on account of trouble
with a vein in his head, but should s^^^
be able to handle most of the defensive
chores there and play offensive too.
Jack Roberts, 194, who missed last sea-
son due to injuries, will play most of the
way at right guard, along with Jim But-
ler, another rookie from East York. The
fifth guard, Roy McMurtry. 190, came up
from last year's Intermediates.

Editor, Tb« Varsity:
As a student who sal in on the
goines-on at the NFCUS confer-
ence in London. I wish to heartily
support the stand taken by Ralph
Wintrob in his article on the "Raw
Deal" given Denis Larure. (Var-
Bily. Sept. 28).
Only one amcndmeiit might be
Oflered: Mi". Wintrob says that
'•The majority of Canadian Uni-
-veisity students do not approve
of Mr, Lazure's ideas." It would
be more correct to say that the
majority of the delegates at the
conference seemed to be afraid
that Canadian students mig:ht sup-
port Mr. Lazure's ideas if they got
a chance to discuss them. Only
f delegate made a motion which
ilied direct condemnatiooi of
ure's stand. He had difficul-
(Vea to find a seconder, and the
fanoUon was overwhelmingly de-
Mt£d. Instead. Lazure was quiet-
^ removed from liis position of in-
puence on a technicality, his sug-
gestions were referred to sub-
icommittee and returned similar
pi form but quite altered in sub-
atauce. His ideas were, in short,
smothered rather than opposed by
ithe conference.
. The imaortanc« of some of the
Isuggestions thus "smothered" was
I potnted out in The Varsity editor-
ial entitled "No Visitors." on last
Monday. The failm-e of the con-
ference to back up Lazure's in-
vitation to Soviet students and
their rejection of the reciprocal
invitation to Canadian Students
to visit the USSR, contrasts cur-
iously with their resolution that
"llie students of Canada can best
promote peace by a programme
of action which brings students of
the world into closer relationship."
The "substitution" of South-east
Asian students, (with whom no
previous negotiation had been
madej seems to indicate that we
only want closer relationships
Willi "people on our side." How
can this promote pence^

The second game saw Victoria

Marg Trotter went all the way on

thi'ee i-uns while her teammates

A quick look around the Athletk win^ of Hart Ilousa
and the back campus would seem to indicate that the falj
athletic season is in full swing-. With golf and. tennis toum*
aments under way, track practices under way up at Varsity
Stadium, various Interfaculty football practices in faUt
swing, lacrosse teams getting out their equipment, and tb'o
girls trooping up behind Trinity at noon hours to taJte tf.
swing at a baseball instead of the boyfriend, the sports pic-
ture is a pretty active one. :
There is always the serious problem at a umversity the
size of Varsity of trying to give everyone who is interested
in sports a chance to participate. There is no doubt that the
Intramural system at the University of Toronto is one of the
best in North America as far as .'Student participation U con-
cerned, but the position of a first year man or woman, par-
ticularly from a small high school^ is a difficult one. i
Some characters are always able to get along no matter
what new situation presents itself, but a guy who is used
to the coach asking for recruits so that he is able to fill hia
roster is often not too ready to dive into the unknown Intra-
mural office and sign himself up for some sport or other.
All this sounds pretty silly to a guy who has been at
V^arsity for a couple of years, but he has probably forgotten
just how he felt in the first few months down here. All we
can suggest i.s that everyone in the know give all the help
possible to anyone interested in getting involved in the ath«
letic picture at Varsity.

productive of fat heads and fond memories like this one i\\
probably the only thintr that keeps registration at these vart-
ous seats of learning a', anything like a consistent level.
The exodus toward the fair city of Montreal (we hav«
often wondered what percentage actually made it to the foot-

midnight tonight when the SAC tnun pulls out. We even
heard of some foolhardy characters who figuix on leaving
about 2:00 o'clock Saturday morning.
Tuesday morning, some 800 to 1.000 weary fans will
make a valiant attempt to stay awake in lecture.s and tell
their friends about what a wonderful place Montreal Is for
a football weekend. If their friends ask them what, the foot-
ball game was like, they will refer them to The Varsity. It
just goes to show what sacrifices a sports reporter must

The Writer, Longtime Campus Politician, Peace Council
Member and Present Head of the University Labour Progres-
sive Party Club, Holds That a Recent Article bv Raloh
Wintrob Didn't Represent The Truth.
By SHIRLEV ENDICOTT
Coming down into the campus last night atout 8 p.m.
the stray student was apt to wander into an odd, ill-as-
sorted group of young men and women. Their faces were
painted in weird and wonderful designs, their clothes
were a conglomeration of odds and ends. They seemed, to
the casual observer, to be doing some odd things.
Somebody was being initiated into something.
The total effect, and it was obviously one of design,
was a completely ridiculous looking group of people. About
them, or slightly behind, almost equally absurd by con-
trast of clothes and looking rather sheepish about the ■
whole thing, was a group of escorts, presumably those
who were putting them through the initiation routine.
Yesterday, a large and reix>rtedly enthusiastic group
of Victoria College freshmen went to the GECO Emer-
gency Housing Unit and painted, among other things,
themselves and the walls of the Housing unit. Well organ-
ized, the Vic initiation seems to have done several things,
including those activities traditionally connected with in-
itiations as well as some much needed work which could
not otherwise have been done.
Taking them together, the two incidents pose some in-
teresting questions, the most important of which is: Why
have initiations at all?
Traditionally they are intendecj, to introduce the neo-
phyte to the university, to make iiJtai feel at home. They
also serve another purpose, allowing, sophomores to work
out some energy thinking up schemes for freshmen to
worry tlirough. t -
We doubt very much that thr-- 'jr.^t' purpose is achiev-
ed. McGill University seems to ht>v4~cohie to this conclu-
sion, bringing all its freshmen '.ii^^i- 'week early to'really
introduce them to the uniV^rittt^'/ to give them a chance
to meet the people who will instruct them,- -and a quiet
firj^t seven days in which to begin tp appreciate the at-
mosphere in which they will pursii^^ their studies.
McGilt has'decided that the academic life of the uni-
versity is the most important, and it feels that the initial
shock of initiations starts the freshman off on the wrong
foot.
The second purpose we have mentioned hardly seems
worthy of consideration.
Last spring attempts were made here to organize a
program fof freshman which would give them a slightly
more reasonable introduction to the University of Toron-
to. It met with serious opposition, mainly on narrow col-
lege lines from those who didn't feel that co-operation to
this end would achieve anything xwsitive.
Perhaps some of those who have voiced an interest
in the "intellectual integrity'' of this institution should
look carefully inlo the whole initiation question. No doubt
they will find that initiations on theilevel of that held this
year by Victoria College are far preferable to the kind
that was notice^ wandering over the campus dressed in
an absurd manner, doing absurd things.
They may even find that it would be wise to treat
the freshman more as an adult than a child, and give him
some soundly based program during his first days here
which will enable him to look more wisely, and to greater
profit, on the University.
Those who had some ideaS on the subject last year
would probably be more than willing to try to organize
such a program for next year. They will need co-operation
however, of the kind that manages to cut across college
lines.
The thinking, and planning, on such a program,
should be done now, '
Is !t true that Denis Lazure's Ideas have not
found a wide sympathy among Canadian students?
I do not see how Ralph Wintrop or anyone else
can claim that it is true, when the student body,
as yet, has not had the opportunity to discuss
the ideas. As a person who observed the proceed-
ings of the International Union of Students' Coun-
cil meeting in Warsaw, I would like to comment
on the decision of the NFCUS conference.
First of all what about the lUS Council meet-
ing? When I was in Warsaw I spoke to many stu-
dents who had been at the lUS Congress in
Prague the year before. What they told me con-
firmed any opinion that this year tlie lUS had been
100% more successful in achieving a friendly atmos-
phere — one in which there was free and relaxed
discussion between students of East and West —
than they had last year. All delegates were listened
to quietly and applauded with courtesy. Comp-
romises were made. For example, the South
African del^ate asked that the Yugoslav question
be reopened. Mr. Grohman. the president of lUB.
said that the suggestion was out of order because
the issue had been decided constitutionally. Never-
theless he proposed that a Commission composed of
most of the Western delegates and members of the
Executive should meet during the conference and
report back to the Council.
The Pre-ss Commission received favourably my
suggestion tliat World Student News, the lUS
magazine, should be more like a forum where con-
troversial, academic and political issues can be
debated. The Russian editor asked me to find a
Canadian student to write an article on the rela-
tion of scientists to politics. He will have a Soviet
student do likewise, Thus the possibility of healthy
debate and criticiaTi from ail points of view exists
as far as the lUS is concerned. It we provide good
articles on any subject relating to student affairs
the lUS will print them if at all possible. Why
do we not take up this offer?
The illustrations above are only a few of the
gestures which, quite naturally, were appreciated by
Western delegates, including Denis Lazure,
When Mr. Lazure spoke at the Council meeting
in Warsaw he brought the friendly greetings of
Canadian students to the students of the world.
He said he believed that the majority of Canadian
students v/anted peace He told of the polls on
conscription carried out in most universities. He
explained that the NPCUS Executive had supported
the idea of a Five Power Pac Pact, not because
it supported the World Peace Council, but because
it beheved that the majority of Canadian students
wanted peace and would support this idea. In his
speech he made very serious criticisms of the lUS
—some of which 'I did not agree with— but con-
cluded with some practical proposals. He extended
an invitation to Grohman, the president of lUS, to
tour Canada. He suggested that Canadian student
spoi-tsmen who participated in the Olympics this
winter mit;ht go on to participate In the inter-
national Ski Camp being held in Czechoslovakia.
Lastly he extended an invitation to the Soviet
students to send over a cultural team to tour
Canadian universities this November. He was given
a very warm applause when he sat down. I heard
many favorable cctnments on his speech from stu-
dents of both East and West. They felt thafc
NFCUS was making a good contribution to world
peace and international student friendship.
The delegates of the NFCUS conference ap-
parently did not agree. They turned down most of
Mr. Lazure's proposals. And yet they saw fit to
pass a resolution on peace which says, in part,
"We . . . join with students across the world in a
sincere desire for peace." Now I ask you, will
Inviting a group of Soviet students to see our uni-
versities—to met and talk with us, to show ua
some of their culture — ^wlll this help to show our
desire for peace to the rest of the world? Would a
group of Canadian students visiting Moscow — tell-
ing Soviet students of Canadian life and seeing
life in the Soviet Union with their own eyes-
would such a group indicate the sincerity of Cana-
dian students for peace?
It is true we will probably not "influence" any
Soviet students in the sense that they will become
adherents to "our democratic way of life." But in
the sense that they will become more convinced of
our desire for peace and frindship we will certainly
make an impression on them. Is it not most im*
portant that the Soviet Union, of all countries, be
shown our desu'e for peace? After all, peace today
is not peace in the abstract, but, above all, peaca
with the Soviet Union.
Finally, what about the meeting of Western
Unions at the lUS which is taking place this
winter? What sort of attitude should the NFCUS
delegation adopt at this conference? Syd Wax is
quoted as saying that the Edinburgh conferenu'"
which will follow the lUS conference, is prepared
to break with the lUS unless they accept certain
Canadian proposals. What are these "certain pro-
posals"? Do they include the demand for the
admission of Spain and Yugoslavia into the TUS
as was stated at the NFCUS conference? It Is
known that the majority In the lUS will not accept
such a demand. If our delegates go with such
impossible demands they are not going with the
sincere intention of finding common ground for
cooperation, but only with the express desire of
breaking entirely with the lUS. They will_make
impossible further contact between students be-
hind the various Iron Curtains in the world. It
boils down to this. Do you, the reader of this
article, want NFCUS to try and breach the gap
between East and West or to lead the break away
from the lUS? In my opinion the former approach
is not being attempted.
The fact that the NFCUS conference was held afc
the beginning of the term before most of us had a
chance to see what was up, means that the de-
cisions made at London were somewhat arbitrary.
If NFCUS is democratic it will stimulate discussion,
on the issues I have raised here. In the mean-
time it is up to everyone to say whether they would
like to have Soviet students visit Canada and
comment on the attitude the Canadian delegates
should have at the lUS and Edinburgh conferences
this winter.
OUR READERS WRITE
Core Courses B^eeded
Editor, The Varsity:
Permii me to endorse the sug-
gestion in your editorial of Oc-
tober 3 that a "atudy or group
of studies" be instituted as "a
common denominator within the
arts colleges at least."
While studying in the United
States I learned that sevetal
universities there have just
that, compulsory "core cours-
es" which amount to rapid sur-
veys of Western thought with
readings in great works which
are bridged by the lecturers.
I originally thought that such
a course would be unnecessary
here because a fiftii form
high school graduate in Ontario
has taken substantially what
an American college student
takes in his first two years. I
have since revised my ' opinion
for reasons similar to those you
advanced. The proof that there
is too mucli specialization in
university and the liarmful ef-
fects ol it are visible on all
campuses.
The course which I envisage
to help "unspecialize" stu-
dents would retain the form of
a survey of Western thoui»ht
.while taking care to note the
genesis, development, methods
and present problems of history,
philosophy, and the various
physical and social sciences. The
survey would have to be given
in simplified blocks, classical,
mediaeval, scientific, rational-
ist, etc.
Such a course, I still think
ought to he given in the first
y«ir, while the student is still
close to the diverse subjects
he. .studied in high school and
before be bas Immersed him-
self in his preferred studies. It
would be interesting to hear an
expression of opinion on the ad-
visability of students in the pro-
fessional faculties taking such
a course.

Hubby Too !
Editor, The Varsity:
Here, here! Something should
be done to enable students to
get rugby tickets for their wives.
Surely with ticket sales down
roughly 20 per cent we can find
room for a few non-students in
the bleachers.
But there is yet another prob-
lem which you have overlooked.
How are married co-eds to get
tickets for their husbands? We
are fewer in number I admit,
but I believe our "hubbies" are
even more interested in the
games than the "wives."
I would have no problem if a
ban had not been placed on
graduates, for niy husband is a
graduate and at present a stu-
dent at Osgoode Hall. So you
see, we cannot afford two tick-
ets in the shade, we cannot in
fact afford one and for the sake
of peace on the home front I
cannot run off to the game
leaving hubby with that rather
poor substitute, the radio.

Toronto Gives High Thanks
After Second Half Revival
Varsity Staff Photo by Ted Sporrow.
.The hard-working Varsity cheerleaders turned out to practise at
Molson Stadium before the opening game there Saturday, iwcoiii
fc^tudents lack pretty co-eds to inspire their cheering sections; therc-
Nfore the Toronto cartwheels were particularly relished. At the Western
game here this week, fans may compare the aforementioned cart-
wheels with those of the Western gals.
Montreal — It took the Blues until the third
quarter to realize that they could win their first
Intercollegiate game ot the season, but when the
realization did come there was little doubt in the
minds of 18.000 fans as to just where they were
headed. The scoreboard read 15-7 in favour of the -
Blues at the final whistle as Varsity fans flooded
the playing field to congratulate an injury-ridden
Blue team that had really turned in a performance.
For most of the first half, the Redmen looked
like the powerhouse of last year, smearing quarter-
back Alec Lawson on a couple of pass attempts and
running back Haig's kicks 20 and 25 yards nearly
every try. Grain did some beautiful kicking for
McGill in the first quarter that kept the Blues at
a disadvantage, and although the Redmen found
it tough going on the ground, they clicked on
enough passes to score a major early in the second
quarter and force the Blues to make a goal line
stand in the first stanza.
As the second quarter rolled to a close, the Blue
defence foimd itself and .led by the spectacular
tackling of Bob Garside and the smooth pass inter-
ceptions of Bill MacParlane and Steve Oneschuck,
forced the Red machine to grind to a halt. After
the half, McGil; failed to make a single first down
until the middle of the foui-th quarter and by that
time the damage was done.
Stars Shine
Grain and Robillard were 95% of the McGill
backfield and Pullar was a standout for the
Redmen at tackle. Picking stars for the Blues would
be an almost impossible task without going through
the roster name by name. Bill MacParlane turned
in one of the best perfoixnances of his career. Bob
Garside was a tower of strength defensively for
the Blues, as were Al Brown, Jimmy Bell and Hank
Tamowski at end.
Steve Oneschuck, Bobby Dale and Murray
Hadlow were the chief ground gainers for Varsity.
Al Haig's kicking was consistently good all through
the game. The deciding factor in the contest, how-
ever, was the Blue line. The Red line held its own
for the first quarter, but finally gave way under
the onslaught and forced McGill to take to the
air. Once the Blue pass defence got warmed up
the McGill cause was a lost one. ^
Viscount Alexander kicked the ball 25 yards to
open play and almost at once the Blues were in
trouble wiien they failed to give the McGill
receiver yards on Haig's first kick. A 60-yard punt
by Grain put the Blues with their backs to the wall
on their own 4-yard line. WaUy Kowal broke into
the Blue backfield on the next play to naU White
of Varsity for 2 points.
Roaring right back into payoff territory, the
Redmen carried the ball down to the Varsity 5-yard
line before the Blue defence tightened up. Thmgs
began to look brighter for the Blues as Garside
fell back from his secondary spot to intercept a
McGUl nass and run it 24 yards to the Blue 39,
but Varsity hopes were soon dampened when
Robillard recovered White's fumble on the centre
•field stripe.
Jeff Grain, alternating at the quarterback spot
with Gene Robillard for the Redmen, put his
throwing arm into gear and completed two passes
a short one to the Blue 35-yard line, and three
plays later a long one to Galdwell, the McGill
captain, that was good to the Varsity 4. The Blues
held for 2 downs, but on the final try, Robillard
knifed over off left tackle from the single wing
formation to score the major. Pindlay missed the
extra point and the score was 7-0 for the Redmen.
Second Half Different
The Blues came out of the dressing room after
the half and proceeded to demonstrate that the
first half had just been a mistake. Lawson, who
called an outstanding game at quarter for the
Blues, set the stage for the turning point in the
game when he gave tlie go ahead for a quick kick
on second down that put the Redmen with their
backs to the wall for the first time in the game.
On the ne.\t play the Blues picked up a fumble on
the McGill 20 and started to roll.
Hadlow picked up a first to the McGill 12,
McParlane carried over the centre twice and picked
up 4 yards each time, and then the Redmen were
penalized half the distance to the goal line for
' roughing, giving the Blues a first down on the
McGill 3 yard line. Lawson called another good
one on the next play, sending Steve Oneschuck
around the short end for the major. Bell kicked
the extra point.
Tackles and Kicks
After an exchange of kicks, the Blue offensive
got under way again. Lawson heaving a beautiful
pass to Oneschuck for a 25-yard gain. Bobby Dale
romped for 11 yards and a first down. Haig's
attempt for a point was carried out from behind
the line by Jeff Grain. Bobby Dale recovered a
McGill fumble on the next play, putting the Blues
in possession on the McGill 6. Since the Varsity
defensive team was on the field, one play was
wasted, and in discussing strategy for the ne.xt play
the Blues took too long in the huddle and lost the
down. Jimmy Bell stepped into the breach to split
the upright-s with a perfect field goal attempt and
put the Blues in the lead 9-7 at the end of the
third quarter.
Varsity tackling, particularly on the part wt
Garside. Brown and MacParlane kept the Redmen
bottled up. and with the fourth quarter only a
few mumtes old. Dale and Hadlow carried the ball
from the McGill 39 into paydirt. with Bobby going
over a pile of players for the major. Bell converted.
The Redmen went pass crazy in dying minutes
of the game but to no avail. It was a happy crew
Of Varsity fans that left Macdonald park.

DR. VAN WYCK
Babies And Books
The subject of the first Hart
House debate this Wednesday ev
ening is, "Resolved that technical
training for the professions has no
place in the University." The
guest speaker will be Dr. H. B.
Van Wyck.
When told the resolution and
asked for a sneak preview of what
his views would be. Dr. Van
Wyck's immediate reaction was.
"it depends what they mean by a
profession. If it's garbage col-
lecting—I'm opposed to it."
It would be bard to find a guest
speaker more fitted to present In-
>^*»resting and entertaining views in
"tWfi discussion. Dr. Van Wyck
taught obstetrics and gynaecol-
©8y to 0. of T. medsmen for
thirty years, and was head of the
department for the past foiur. He
h«8 done considerable research in
Ills field, and Collected a long list
degi-ees, as well as written a
book on obstetrics and gynaecol-
ogy which is a standard text. In
addition to his teaching, he carried
on tor many years an extensive
practice of his own. In fact, it
is surprising how many Variety
students (including the writer) can
claim the honor of having been de-
livered by Dr. Van Wyck.
Yet the letters after his name
give a clue to only one side of his
career. For one thing, they give
no hint of the charm of his Per-
sonality. Besides. Dr. Van Wyck
is an outstanding example of a
man who is tops in his own spe-
cialty, as the same time has many
other interests and abilities, and
is keenly alert and observant ot
current happenings.
He Is in I position to refute su-
nerciliius Arts studenU claiming
intellectual superiority oyer ineds-
men. because he himself took his
degree in Classics before entering
medicine. This is one of the
thhings specially Qualifying Mm
to speak, with authority at the de-
bate On top of the soUd cultur-
al grounding of the classics course,
Dr Van Wyck has other accom-
plishments. He paints as a hob-
by is a parUcularly fine pianist,
and sings in the Mendelssohn
Choir.
Having given up active practice
and most of his teaching. Dr. I
Van Wyck is now professor emeri-
tus ot the department of obstetrics
and Gynaecology, and honorary
consultant to the General Hospi-
tal. Students in the second med-
ical year have him for a special
lecture series on the subjest which
shows the trend of his interests
"Humanistic and Scientific Values
in Medicine."
Dr. Van Wyck has more leisure
time now than ever before in his
extraordinarily busy life. His way
of using it has been to fill it up
by the active continuation of all
his hobbies, and to launch into
projects wliich have long appeal-
ed to him, but which have had to
be postponed for lack of spare
time.
As well as enjoyhig his fine li-
brary, and making his own music,
he is working on a book of his
own— a History of Medicine, in
which he is trying to trace the de-
velopment of medicine through
the centuries along with that of
the various other historical trands.

Following the suggestions of Gord
Cameron, last year's president of
the Medical Society, Meds func-
tions will be integrated with those
of the University to eliminate
clashes. Publicity Director John
MacDonald said yesterday. Thus
Panacea, the all-Varsity Dance,
sponsored by the Meds, will not be
held this year because it would con-
fUct with the SA-C.-sponsorcd -all
Varsity Dance on October 12.
Last year plans were laid and t
constitution was set up for the Os-

planned for organization having al-
ready been held. Special speakers
will talk on the history of Medicine.

By way of comment for the paper,
Mr. MacDonald said. "Medical stu-

THE SNAKE AND I
Bewildered Boa
MARGARET WELCH
Sulking in The Varsity office
'cause couldn't do story on Prin-
cess. News editor dashed in. Had
terrific scoop on visitors to mu-
seum. Same difference. Snakes in-
stead of royalty. Just trying to
bribe me Into working.
Went to museum to prove no
story there. Told they really have
two new snakes. Would I like to
see them? Certainly not. Journal-
ist's insatiable curiosity wasn't
hungry. But gritted manners be-
tween teeth. Bravely nodded "yes".
Relaxed a little when told visitors
were dead. Pickled too. Saw moulds
being made. To be painted and nut
in new exhibit. Takes great skill.
Courage too. Tropical moccasin
was first specimen. Extremely
poisonous. Strikes with great rapid-
ity. Retreated tripping over some
old plaster. Jumped on chair when
discovered plaster was good sized
boa constrictor. "Enormous muscu-
lar power which renders them ter-
rible" quotes Webster. Can swallow
pigs, mules and things whole. I'm
not very big.
Came down from chair when told
this too was only a mould. Still
holding Instructor's hand. Said
he'd show me moccasin's skin.
Opened eyes for peek at it. Beau-
tiful black with white markings
like ocelot. Rather have ocelot.
Gathered courage. Decided to
feel next skin. Constrictor's. Reach-
ed out hand boldly. Eyes closed.
And grasp cold mass. Cold mass
twined self around arm. Wasn't
skin. Was whole boa. Prayed boa
was on diet. Demonstrator didn't
worry. Only three loot baby. I'm
pretty young too.
No cause , for alarm though.
Seems boa doesn't know he's a boa,
Was given mouse which he at
tacked in traditional manner. But
mouse counter-attacked and nearly
killed snake. Boa still has scars.
Also inferiority complex. Someday
complex will get the better of him.
Then horrible constrictor in midst,
Decided to graduate this year.
Cause of menace is shortage of
foreign snakes in Museum. And no
way of getting them with le
stricted budget. So decided to raise
own.
New snakes were in show busi-
ness. Died from malnutrition,
prison bars got in way. Not enough
public to feed pair. Guess every-
on eoff to see Princess. She doesn't
eat public.
Told editor won't play Frank
Buck again. Said not to worry.
Next assignment spiders. Diction-
ary—genus Aramida that spins web
to ensnare its prey. Going home to
family. Family like meek, modest
children.

Applications for Dominion-Pro-
vincial Student-Aid Bursaries must
be handed in to college Registi'ars
today. Reports ijidicate that a
greater numtwr of University of
Toronto students are applying for
this financial aid this year. Three
of the colleges have had to order
more application forms because of
the increased number of applicants.
Under the Dominion -Provincial
Students- Aid programme, Bur-
saries ranging from $150 to $400
are awarded to students in fin-
ancial need who are resident In
Ontario and are .attending U. of T.
including the affiliated schools of
art, pharmacy, teaching, etc.
To be eligible for the Bursary, a
student must have obtained at least
second class honors in the exams of
the preceding year, must not be re-
ceiving financial aid from any other
scholarship or Bursary, and should
be assisting with the financing of
his own education, i.e. with sum-
mer employment, etc.
Although most ot the applicants
Will probably meet these overaU
standards, members of the Com-
mittee of, Award at Queen's Park
suggest that many of the applica-
tions will be weeded out because
the number of applications already
exceed the number of available
Bursaries.
Priority wiU be given to students
who were awarded Dominion-Pro-
vinciai Student-Aid Bursaries for
the first year of their university
course, and whose financial status
has not since improved.

The topic of the coming Unl.
verslty College Parliament club
will be 'Tesolved— that fraternities
are detrimental to higher educa.
tion on the University of Toronto
campus," according to literary
director Albert Strauss, IV U <i
Strauss ,5aid that the toelo of ths
debate scheduled for Tuesday,
Oct. 16 was in accord with tlia
policy of the club to bring forth
without prejudice topical issues.
Opposition speaker Marion Ho-
garth, in U.C. says that the de.
bate on fraternities is essential af-
ter the discussion aroused by The
Varsity recently. Miss Hogarttt
says that the U.C. parliamentary
club should be thanked for giving
the fraternities a chance to pre-
sent their case. She thinks that
fraternities have a worthy function
to fulfill.
Vern Turner, rv U.C. told The
Varsity: "We, ot the affirmative,
intend to show that the fraternity, i
system is based on wobbly founda-'
tions." It glorifies a hollow kind
of prestige that lends itself to the
production of a sheep-like mental
attitude among many members.
Certainly a system which makes
the common cause of all Varsity
students secondary to the ad-
vancement of a narrow group can
hardly Justify its existence on aay
rational grounds."
_TIie position of fraternities m
the campus, according to the Stu-
dent Handbook is, rougljly, that
while they are not accorded of-
ficial recognition, they play an
important role in the undergradu-
ate life of the university. ^
Scared Patches
I-ondon, Ont - (CUP)— Purpis
Patches, the University of Western
Ontario's renowned revue, has bad
its existence threatened this year
by students to the medical faculty.
The Revue's use of the Meds gym-
nasium for buildmg Patches' props
prompted the oean of the faculty,
to refuse the use of the gym this
year. A spokesman for the Meds-
men explained that the props tied
up the gym, for a month.
Patches' performers will still ba
able to use the gym for rehearsals:
but unless a new spot for prop con-
struction is found within the weet
there could be no revue this year,
one of the co-producers of the PP'a
told the student council.
Elimination of the Patches frran
the boards this year could mean a
loss of $2,000 to the council.

gnC New York Trip
l^fftninar ^ This Year
A trip to New York, a secnlnar
veeUend (possibly at Hart House
Caledon Hills Farm), prominent
and well-informed speakers on in-
ternational problems, and regular
/ discussion groups will be all part
l^of the programme of the Interna-
tional Relations Club this year.
"It is the aim of the I.R.C.,"
eaid Andy Watson who is President
of the Club, in an interview yester-
day, "to stimulate student inter-
est in the problems of interna-
tional affairs threatening peace.
As a Club we support no one view
as to how these problems are best
solved, nor do we limit our mem-
bership to students of similar
political belief. We hope, rather,
that by bringing together students
of widely varying opinions, the
members of the Club may be able
to form for themselves more en-
lightened decisions on interna-
tional issues."
The first meeting of the I.R.C., to
be held this Thursday at Wymil-
wood, will feature a panel of three
students discussing certain as-
pacts of the European situation
with which they have become well-
acquainte« this summer. Also at
this meeting. several seminar
groups will be formed. Each of
these groups will meet regularly
and will specialize in the study of
one field in international rela-
tions, such as the work of the
United Nations; the Chinese and
Korean issue; and the Colombo
Plan for South East Asia.
The Club is hoping to hold a
seminar week-end In the near fu-
ture, possibly the week-end of Oc-
tober 20th and 21st. At the end of

Given Frosh
November, the T.R.O, will repeat
its annual trip to New York to ob-
serve the United Nations in ac-

lar meetings featuring speakers on

cial evenings with films, refresh-
ment and entertainment; and pos-
sibly a trip to Ottawa in the win-
ter term to view the Department

"We think," continued Andy,
"that this type of activity fs a
valuable part of the fabric of uni-
versity life. All students, what-
ever their fields of study, should
feel a real concern for the prob-
lems confronting the establishment
of a genuine peace. Only when the
people of the world, as individuals,
shoulder the responsibilities of
citizenship can maturity in inter-
national affairs be achieved."

Europe Biased Against U.S.
Not Canada — M. Jacobson
Canada Is In a particularly
strong position in international
student affairs because it is not
tagged with anti - American epi-
thets. That's the opinion of Mur-
iel Jacobson, who passed through
Toronto Friday on her way to Ge-
neva, Switzerland Where she is
going to work with World Univer-
sity Service (WUS>.
"Canada is in a position unique-
ly strong for a country of her
size and wealth," Miss Jacobson
said. "She Is able to wield a
great deal of influence because
foreign students (particularly As-
ians) do not feel the antagonism
against Capada which they often
feel against the United States."
For this reason. Canada should
have representatives at the meet-
ings of the WUS Executive, held
three times a year, she said. How-
ever. Canadian International Stu-
dent Service (ISS) is too poor to
send these delegates.
The Canadian office must get
money to send delegate? to these
meetings," she said.
Miss Jacobson will be Associate
"Varsity Christian Fellowship
[(VCF) is organized in order that
each student, during his university
career might have the opportunity
of finding in Jesus Christ a satis-
fying and integrated .ay of life,"
IVlce-President Hai-ry Robinson told
- over a hundred students at the
VCP Frosh Reception held Thurs-
day afternoon in West Hall, U.C.
President Ian Sowton gave a
brief sketch of the organisation's
plans for the year, emphasizing
that the main purpose of VCP,
above providing a formal pro-
gramme of social events for its
membership was to bring Christ
into the lives of Varsity students
through prayer and the personal
Jffitness of its members.
The first step has been taken
towards the inception of a United
Nations Club at the University of
Toronto.
Over thirty-five students, from a
variety of schools, colleges and
faculties, were present at an or-
ganization meeting of the new
club, held Thursday afternoon in
Trinity College.
A steering committee, chaired
by Jack Tinker, rv UC. was ap-
pointed to draw up a constitution.
The constitution will be presented
at the next meeting, later this
month. If it is accepted, officers
will be elected, and the approval
of the Caput will be sought for the
new organization.
The purposes of the new club are
to inform student opinion, and to
take that opinion and mobilize It
behind the principles and methods
of the United Nations. Future
plans call for study groups to pre-
pare briefs on public affairs, a
model General Assembly drawn
up from the student body to de-
bate world problems, and celebra-
tion of United Nations week, which
this year comes between Oct. 21
and Oct. 27.
In this work the new U.N. Club
is not expected to conflict with
the International Relations Club
(IRC), another organization al-
ready in operation which has much
the same aims. IRC President
Andy Watson. IV Trinity, says he
thinks the two organizations will
complimented each other. He has
ated International Union of Stu-
dents (lUS) is possible. Miss Ja-
sobson believes, in spite of the dif-
ficulties the two organizations
have had in the past.
At the General Assembly this
summer WUS was invited to meet
in an informal conference with
lUS in order to work out grounds
on which practical co-operation
can be achieved. This meeting will
be held sometime in November.
"The idea was greeted with
great receptivity by the General
Assembly , ' ' reports Miss Jacob-
son, "and I am sure that some-
thing will be worked out." How-
ever, she warn.ed, the final agree-
ment would have to guarantee
terms acceptable to both sides.
Miss Jacobson is being loaned to
WUS by the World Student Ser-
vice Fund (WSSP) where she is
Program Director. WSSF Is the
closest thing the Americans have
to ISS. However. It is (as its
name implies) primarily a fund-
raising organization ; international
student activities such as semin-
aries are not stressed as greatly
as in ISS.
Last year WSSF raised approxl»
mately $600,000; this year it is
campaigning for $808,500. This
will be used principally for in-
ternational student relief and for
the administrative costs of the
WUS offices in Geneva: WSSF pays
about 90 per cent of all the inter-
national ISS budget. Actually,
this year WSSP is campaigning for
almost three times the amount
WUS asked for its General As-
sembly.
Althonffh she is working for aa
American student organization.
Miss Jacobson is Canadian by
birth. She received her degree
from McMaster University, and
then proceeded to the University
of Toronto to take postgraduate
work in Economics.
Muriel Jacobson
Secretary-General of WUS. the
world student relief organization
which is replacing KS. She wUl
hold the post for six months until
a permanent appointment is made.
During that time she will be re-
sponsible for inplementing the re-
Hef program which was decided
at the WUS General Assembly
held near Oslo this summer.
Practical co-operation between
WUS and the Communist-domin-
already extended an Invitation to
the IRC in its annual visit to the
members of the U.N. Club to Join
United Nations in New York.

reported Saturday, The club, or-
ganized last spring, is presenting
a program of five French films in
the Museum Theatre. Tlie 450 seats
for the evening performance of the
shows were gone early in the sum-
mer.
The first presentation was "Quai
des Orfevres," starring Louis Jou-
vet. Although the film was an ex-
cellent portrayal of music hall life
in Paris, unfortunately the French
used in it was predominately col-
loquial, which made it difficult for
beginners to understand.
The next film shown will be
"Symphonic Pastorale" with Mich
ele Morgan, which Cine Club offi'
cials promise will be equally enter-
taining and easier to follow. Also
to be shown with these films are a
variety of artistic short subjects.
On Friday a color movie of Paris
accompanied "Quai des Orfevres"
and apart from being beautifully
filmed, it was narrated in an inter-
esting manner by the poet Carco.
In between the short and the feat-
ure, French songs were played.
In his speech preceding the show-
ing, UC Principal Jeaiuieret stress-
ed the need of films such as these,
not onljt to facilitate the learning
of the language through familiarity
with its rhythms, but also to be-
come acquainted with the finest of-
ferings of the French film world.
In another French address, the
French consul also praised the ser-
ies as a means of strengthening the
bonds between France and Canada.
ROYAL VISIT
Because of the Royal visit,

By FRANK MORITSUGU
One of the university librarians told me last week that most books
are easy to get these first few weeks. Nobody really gets down to work
until the end of October, .she said. Which seems to suggest this is a
good time to have a flock of above-average movies hitting the first-run
houses.
Most of these have been mentioned In this column before. TALES
OF HOFFMAN has opened with fancy hulIabaUoo and fancy prlcesT
SEVEN DAYS TO NOON, a British "sleeper" should do well downtown
when word gets around. PEOPLE WILL TALK is the successor to ALL
ABOUT EVE in Joseph Mankiewicz' production line. HOTEL SAHARA
has Peter Ustinov, who has been a London success in his recent West ,
End production of "The Love of Four Colonels." Current European
imports include ANGELO and THIS WOMAN IS MINE, both Italian.
Before this column investigates these prize offerings, and others to
come shortly, I would like to talk about "better" movies. Quite recently,
Hollywood press agentry embarked on a rather defensive publicity
campaign which asserted in capital letters "MOVIES ARE BETTER
THAN EVER."
The story is that the new ogre Television kept movie-goers away
from the movies in droves. Box offices sickened. Panic in the streets
of Hollywood. "Look, men, we must do something. (Spittle on the
conference table.)" Result: "M!OVIia3 ARE BETTER THAN EVER."
What made most critics Dappy, especially our more acid ones, was
that movies labelled with this slogan oft«n turned out to be lemons.
And on the whole, movies weren't much better than the year before,
Gilbert Seldes, In his The Great Audience, gives one explanation for
the difficulty of making good movies in Hollywood. Business to be
successful must be aimed at the custome:s. And, Seldes su^ge^vs,
perhaps the customers, the audience, aie the hindrance. The movie
audience today is composed predominantly of undftr-twenty-iives.
(These, of course, are the people in whose hands the destiny of .the
nation lies, aren't they?> When Americans (that's us, too, Mr. Massey)
get over thirty years old, they stop going to the movies.
So poor, imfortunate Hollywood is strapped. Movies to make money,
and after all it is a business and not Renaissance art patronage, must ■
be aimed at the adolescents, the eager young girls who devour fan
magazines and get goopy about P^ter Lawford. (Perhaps he is passe now,
but the example will do.)
And so to the often unwieldy and illogical happy ending to please
the American dream, the theological idea that Good always triumphs
over Evil, and the shopgirls who want reassurance that all is welj in
this world. And also the title change from "TICKET TO TOMAHAWK"
to "THE SHERIFF'S DAUGHTER." or "USS TEAKETTLE" to
"YOU'RE IN THE NAVY NOW." And more important the thin, slices
of imagination which are mapped up in costly technical ingenuity.
The important Seldes point is that Hollywood can counter the
fearful inroads of Television into their entertainment ohgopoly by
weaning back the mature audience with pictures of higher standards.
There has been some evidence of this track being followed. Directors
like Joe Mankiewicz, John Huston and Robert Rossen axe coming up
with films that match Europe's best in ideas. And producer Stanley
Kramer is setting HoUj-wood on its ear by trying different films with
lots of talent and little money. CHAMPION, HOME OF THE BRAVE,
THE MEN, CYRANO DE BERGEBAC aU attest to his success. The
news that ICramer is making DEATH OF A SALESMAN with Frederick
March is heart -warming.
But latest reports are that Hollywood Is making money a^^in this
past year, and the sag from television now seems temporary. This may
mean a lapse into smug sterility again. Or perhsi^'this means Holly-
wood may still pursue the idea of making occasional films that appeal
to intelligence and taste.
Maybe one of these days, Hollywood will come along with pictures
as good as Chaplin's CITY LIGHTS or Lewis Milestone's ALL QUIETT
ON THE WESTERN FROfJT. Both of these films were made over
20 years ago.
(But more of this in the next column.)

Describing the gift, the McGill
Daily commented: "The students
who take themselves seriously
will probably believe that the Fal-
con represents the poised intellect
of a university student ready to
take flight with cultural develop-
ment."
The subject of this stanza by Shelley has been called many names,
including glow wonn and firefly. As usual, science destroys all such poeltc
fancies, for the dratted thing is neither worm nor fly. Lo, it is a beetle.
At night, this strange Individual is loaded with romance and beauty,
but in the cold clear light of day it looks disappointingly like an ordinai-y
bug. Sic transit gloria, Anatomically, it owns the full beetle requisites of
six legs and a tough exoskeleton. Its color is usually dark brown with a
pale pink chest. On each segment there are two tiny bright red spot^.
The male of the species is privileged in possessing functional wings, but
the female is necessarily a stay-at-home for she has none.
This difference in locomotion would be a sferious threat to the path of
true love were it not for the glowing extremities of both sexes which are
used as signalling lanterns. Miss Lampjris waits in her grassy "dell of
dew" until a Coleopterous playboy Hits past with his traffic Ughts blink-
ing. She answers his signal after exactly 2 1 10 seconds. This interval is
so constant that one may lure an unsuspecting male over to any artificial
light which blinks in reply to his with correct timing. I have tried it with
a flashlight and succeeded in attracting (besides tluee thousand
mosquitoes) a couple of masculine fireflies who seemed rather disap-
pointed at seeing me. No doubt in their own way they muttered a profsne
denunciation of modem science making a mockery of the eternal values.

The production of their eerie greenish glow is still not completely,
understood. Their luminous area consists of a double layer of fatl.v tissue.
The deeper one is piginented and acts .as a reflector. The outer celU
contain granules of an oxldlzable chemical and an enzyme which peimils
the reversal of the oxidization reaction. This reduction of the chemical
ensures that the firefly rever runs out of fuel. The luminous tissue lias
a rich supply of air tubes and nerves which control the amount of air
passing through, ha oxygen In the air passes from the tubes over the
area, the chemical in the cehs becomes oxidized and a bright glow-
assumed. It is said that during the Spanish American War. an army
surgeon in Cuba performed an emergency operation by the light of a
bottle of fireflies.
The producer ot such an elfin aura should surely feed only on neclar
and Stardust, This, however, is not the case. The firefly Is strictly carniv-
orous His favourite prey is the snail. Lest undue suffering or struggle
mar his banquet, the firefly first paralyzes his victim by the Injection ol
a poison secreted through his mandibles.
The lite cycle of the firefly is that ot complete metamorphosis. There
are four stages, those of egg, larva (which lasts for about three years),
pupa and adult beetle. Even during the early forms of his infancy, the

Varsity Loses By 4-1
In Interned Opener
Blues Lose
Sailing Cup
To AAacmen
BY BRUCE Macl>ONALD
Ah! It was a wonderful weekend. The weather was
'simply beautiful (it hardly rained at all), the train ride
was quiet and restful and the Blues walked away with about
fts nice a win as they have picked up in several seasons.
The Varsity cheering section was a pretty glum looking:
flight for the first half of the game. They were probably
affected by some of the same psychology that the Blues had
to overcome, but once the transformation had been made
they were undoubtedly the noisiest crowd in Canada last
Saturday afternoon.
The Blues really did themselves proud in dear old Mac-
donald Park. They showed the same kind of spirit that
earned them a 6-all tie against the Kedmen in that slushy
mess last fall. We have been harping for weeks on the fact
that the Intercollegiate team with the strongest line was
the one to beat for the Yates Cup this season, and there is
no doubt, that the Blue front wall was the deciding factor
against the Redmen.
But let's not take away any credit that is due- the Var-
sity backfield. This boy MacFarlane is going to make a name
for himself in Intercollegiate circles before he is done. Both
offensively and defensively he was a standout for the Blues,
tackling, intercepting passes and toting the ball.
Steve Oneschuck is the kind of ball carrier that can
make 5 yards after he is tackled, and he did it on several
occasions last Saturday. If they ever turn Bobby Dale loose
he will leave a lot of opposing players wondering just what
breezed past Bobby can get into high gear in a hurry. His
two runs, along with a 10 yard jaunt by Murray Hadlow
paved the way for the Blue's final touchdown.
Bob Garside, one of the most deadly tacklers in the
Intercollegiate loop, was at his best against the Redmen. A
couple of his diving shoestring tackles brought the crowd
to its feet. Al Brown and Jimmy Bell were no slouches in
the tackling department either, and Jimmy's toe was a po-
tent scoring weapon for the Blues. His converts and field
goal were no more than an inch off centre.
Probably the strangest aspect of the whole .game was
the number of injuries that the Blues were carrying. With
Bill Bewley, Bob Rumball, OIlie Mandryk and Pete Hynbida
out for the game with assorted injuries when the Blues en
trained for Montreal, the picture was none too bright. On
the trip down, Tom Bird took sick and after he had been pre
pared for an appendix operation it was discovered that his
trouble was a contused kidney, an extremely painful injury
that will most likely keep him sidelined for the rest of the
season.
In the first quarter, two of Masterson's most effective
offensive linemen, Jack Roberts and Vince Collizza wer
forced to leave the game. The final blow was Geoff White'
injured knee (it was operated on after the game), putting
a total of 8 Blues out of the running.
With any kind of luck, six of these boys should be back
In action this week. They may be needed when Western
payA us a visit next weekend
The sailors from McMaster have
no regard for tradition. Hiey came
into Toronto last Saturday, and
took home the Colonel Leary Grant
Trophy, erafclematic of Intercollegi-
ate sailing supremacy, winning the
meet by a scant 3Vi-point margin.
The trophy, which is a six-inch
bell, has been in Varsity's posses-
sion since it was first donated in
1937. It has become such a perman-
ent fixture that it has been used to
call order at Attiletic Banquets, but
the Macmen have olianged all that.
The meet this year was scheduled
for eight races at the Queen City
yacht, half Saturday and half Sun-
day. But the storm Sunday cut off
activity and this year's cliampion-
ship was decided on the basis of the
first day's activity.
There were only lour entries in
this year's racing. Royal Military
College and Queen's each sent two
boats to compete with Varsity and
McMaster. McGill, who have sent a
team in previous years, were un-
heard from this season.
Doug Hall, captain of the Mac
team, was the big factor in liis
squad's win, chalked up three firsts
in the four races. The other heat
was taken by the Varsity boat of
Bill Lynn, with Wally 0"Hara as his
crew.
Toronto's captain Mlk^ Winlo
came through with three seconds
and one fiflli. The latter was par-
tially caused by a close call with a
freighter. Final score showed the
Hamilton crew with 47% points
with the Toronto lads 3Vj behind.
Queen's bad 26 and RMC were
fourth with 22. •
Shoestring Bob
Bob Garside, defensive second-
ary for the Blues, reminded ob-
servers of his performances in
Intermediate ranks when he cut
loose against the Redmen in
Montreal last Saturday. Bob's
tackling was a large factor in the
defeat of McGiU.
With an uncanny faculty for
calUng plays. Bob has been used
almost exclusively for defensive
work the last couple of years even
though ball carrying as well as
kicking and passing were his
strong points in Intermediate play.
Bob intercepted a Grain pass
last Saturday and travelled 24
yards down the field before- lie
was stopped.
BY BILL WILSON
On a cold wind-swept field at Cobouvg the Baby Blues
dropped a close game to the Cobourg Galloping Ghosts, pro-
vincial intermediate champions for the last two years. Al-
though out-weighed considerably all along the line, Varsity
got no worse than an even break in the play. Fumbles, ini-
tial nervousness and an offense that did not start to click
until the second half probably cost them the victory.
In the flist quarter Bob Cooper
hoofed a single for the Ghosts as
Don Fawcett was brought down be-
hind his line. Cobourg enlarged
this lead with a 30 yard placement
by Art Jones after picking up a
fumble at the 45, Varsity taking
over at their 35 got a single before
the halt- ended on a beautiful
quick kick from the centre stripe to
the dead line by Johnnie Adams,
who punted and ran well through-
out.
Play continued to see-saw back
and forth in the third quarter. Just
after the teams changed ends for
the final quarter. Varsity started an
attack which just fell short of a
touchdown. A Doug Geekie to Gene
Chorestecki pass went for twenty
yai-ds. Adams galloped 14 for a
first down on the next play up to
the eight. Don Fawcett then gained
3 but an off-side penalty set them
back five. Then Fawcett carried
across the field but was hit about
one foot from the line ending the
threat. The game ended as the
Ghosts were held off from a touch-
down by a determined line after
they^had picked up a fumble. The
end also brought bad news as
speedy Bob Pinkney suffered a
fractured arm in the last three
minutes and will probably be out
for the rest of the season.
Once they got untracked Pink-
ney, Adams, Bob Kimoff, Fawcett
and Earl Ford ran in good style.
Gerry Pitzhenry and Doug Geekie
sharing the quarterback duties call-
ed the plays well but failed to get
their passing attack going until the
second half. Harry Hyde, Al Lans-
ky, Bernie Ellis, Bob Dougsn and
Don Smith played good ball along
the line.
The team looks as if It should
stack up well with the competition
in its own league. This Friday's
game with the Colts at Western
should help tell that story.
Western Wins First
Beating Gaels 34-12
By MICHAEL CALLAGHAN
University of Western Ontario
Mustangs opened their intercol-
legiate season by beating Queen's
Golden Gales 24-12. Queen's last
year upset Western twice for their ;
only two victories of the year, but
in this game there was never
any question of who was going to
win. The Mustangs played a steady
powerful game, rolling over the
Queen's line and passing compe-
tently.
Western got their first touchdown
early in the first quarter by pour-
ing through the Queen's line. Prom
the initial kick-off till the first
touchdown the Queen's line was so
full of holes that the IMustangs
seemed to have more trouble pick-
ing holes than finding them.
After that Ross McKelvy, W
Queen's man who's been around
for quite a while, and who was also
about the best broken-field ruimer
on the field, intercepted a pass. And
on the next play the Queen's line
held and McKelvy ballet-danced
his way through for 70 yards.
Queen's barely showed a spark-
after that till the fourth quarter,
and .he Western team went right
on playing a steady game. Truant
and Church the Western quarter-
backs threw short pro passes con-
sistently, to catch a weak Queen's
defence off guard.
The big difference in the teams
was in the lines. The only times
that Queen's threatened was when
their Une would suddenly hold. Then
Mellor, Queen's quarterback, would
get a chance to throw a few well '
directed passes to one of the most
sensational ends in this league,
Harry Lampman. McKelvy would
shake loose, but sooner or later, and
for all but twice, sooner than a
touchdown, the Queen's line would
fall apart or Western would inter-
cept a pass. It wasn't till the fourth
quarter that Queen's got over the-
goal-line again. '
In the seco!id half the play be- 5
came a bit fantastic. Queen's had \
been using the latteral pass on the
runbacks aU the fime. Suddenly
Western who had refused to use
one latei'al, began to throw them
all over the field on any excuse.
Aside for a few good moments,
the game was unspectacular. West-
had lost its fumblitis, their
passing attack looked better than it
has in years, and they were just too
powerful for a spotty Queen's team.
This week-end Western plays Var-
sity here. This will probably be
Varsity's toughest game.

Suffering from an injured shoul-
der, halfback Bill BewIcy was a
member of the long Varsity in-
jured list for the league opener
against the Redmen last Satur-
day.
Bill has been one of the bright
lights in the Varsity attack to
date this season and his loss for
ttie game was a severe blow to
Varsity hopes. Playing much im
proved ball over last season when
he was one of the Blue stalwarts,
Bewley will be welcomed back
with open arms when his shoul-
der heals.

KIDDY CORNER
Over Sixties'' Too
The University Settlement, now
located in two rather inconspicuous
houses behind the Ait Gallery at
IXindas and Beverley Sts., was
founded in I&IO by the late Sir
Robert Falconer (he of Whitney
Hall fame) and several Interested
gi-aduates and staff of the U. of T.
It was their intention to provide a
place where ttie faculty and stu-
dents could "exchange ideas with
the people of the University dis-
trict.
Thus they built the first Settle-
ment House in Toronto, modelled
after the English type. It was first
located on Adelaide St., and in 1926
was moved to larger quarters at 23

wood, on Gull Lake, near Graven-
surst, Ontario. This gives the
neighbourhood kids a chance to es-
cape the smoke and heat for three
weeks in the summer, which makes
for some pretty amazing changes in
those youngsters.
The Settlement is related to the
University through its Board of
Governors drawn from the faculty
and graduates thereof. There is
also a Women's Auxiliary, consist-
ing of the wives of faculty mem-
bers, who help mainly in thp up'
keep of the residence. TliLs small

For few years during the re-
cent war tills part of the Settlement
was used by the city for a day nur-
sery, but last 'year it was taken
over for the Settlement's junior
members. But facilities there now
are unsatisfactory in relation to the
crowded housing conditions, the
lack of space for active play, and
the influx of new Canadians in the
district. Tiiere is, however, a trend
towards expansion, which means
the addition of a new gym and oth-
er facilities in the near future.
The staff also hopes to be able to
include the "over-sixties" group in-
to their already wide age ran^e of
atrtivities. The Settlement is, more-
over, inter-rocial and inter-culturaV
in scope, and it tries to provide a
varied social, athletic and creative
program for its members.
Besides the city facilities, the Set-
tlement operates Oamp Boulder-

operation of the Psychology and

Tljis month Britain faces an election. In the second of
three articles, the writer examines the issues from a
summer's study at a Dockland Settlement in an east-
end London, England, slum.
Ill
Culture
To date this term there has been little cultural activity
in these pages. True, small things have worked their way in,
and some of the larger parts of a projected program (such
as the Book Review page) are under way.
But the big department, formerly known as Art, Music
and Drama, hasn't yet reared its ugly head.
There have been a few enquiries about Art. Mu.sic and
Drama. In spite of the fact that it hasn't gotten under way
in the grand style yet, it's coming.
The editors of The Varsity, in reviewing their plans
for this year, felt that change in the Art, Music and Drama
section was indicated. In the past we have managed, one
way and another, to cover most events. Yet it has often
seemed to us that the coverage was less than adequate, that
In a university like Toronto there was an opportunity to do
a better job.
There have been reasons: the job is too big for one un-
dergraduate editor, it requires a knowledge too broad to ex-
pect except in rare instances. There were technical bugs
also, mainly space problems.
By and large the technical problems have been solved.
And the Art, Music and Drama department is no more. In
Its place we have substituted i»hat is flippantly being re-
ferred to as the Culture Section. Broken down into several
Rfrfts, it will work this way :
Each day The Varsity will carry a column: Balcony
Viewpomt. This will be devoted to the theatre; on days when
there is drama it will be on the drama. And on the other days , - .
Va^si vEdiL\TM- ■"--,-"=«»' former ,il^rZ'''li^ T7iV\
,ai=,,iy i^uiLor TiauK MoHtsugu, IS already well under
a fortnight's time Prime Minister clement
Attiee will lead his reigning Labour Party to the
polls. Soon the October air wUl be as multi-
coloured as Hyde Park, and as thiclt as a London
fog. In the current battle for power Winston
Churchill shot the first yoUey last week with a
signed statement of Conservative aims. Labour
shot back with an apology for past problems, and
the old cannon ball of imminent war if the Tories
are voted in.
In spile of what h.-ippened to Dr. Gallup in the
last American election. I poked a representative
number of east Londoners^ with the sticky question
"On what side of the political fence are you, and
what do you think of the welfare state?"
Answers from dockers, laborers, ministers and
members of the RotarJ'club ran from left to right.
But out of the hodge-podge of opinions I drew this
much. Each was a product of the person. Self-
interest was the motive behind the vote, whether
conservative or Labour. Therefore the party which
can play upon that motive at most points in the
most people will most likely win. Says G. K.
Chesterton; ■'Modern society is intrinsically in-
secure because it is based on the notion that all
men wUl do the same thing for different reasons.
. . . Pour men may meet under the same lamp
post: one to paint it pea green as part of a great
municipal reform; one to read his breviary in the
light of it; one to embrace it with accidental
ardour in a fit of alcoholic enthusiasm: and the
last merely because the pea green post is a con-
spicuous point of rendezvous with his young lady.
But to expect this to happen night after night is
unwise."
The man who sees the British election as a
matter of course is viewing the scene with half-
closed eyes. Issues may be the food of political
conflict, but the ultimate decisions he with that
unpredictable, amorphous mass of people to whom
the food is fed. We on the other side must not
forget what Sir Robert Peel called "that great
compound of folly, weakness, prejudice, wrong
feeling, obstinacy and newspaper paragiaplis which
is called public opinion."
With tea down to a bare two ounces a week
and the cost of living rising, high taxes and a
shortage of houses, the elector's mind is very self-
consumed with the bread and butter problems at
first hand than with Iran, the dollar gap, or Korea
Not unlike the Canadian, the Londoner lives in a
groove, is shut in by his own affafrs, meets few
people outside his trade or his class, and except
for the wireless and the tabloid, he rarely looks
outside his own concentric sphere of life. Thus it
Is the p^rty which so to speak can "get In tl^
groove " with these insular, working millions that
will call the tune at Westminster.
MeanwhUe the British press plays upon public
opinion for all its worth; Attlce and ChurchUl are
fast being labelled and stereotyped, the greys of
government are heightened to a distorted black
and white, and "expanding symbols" are thrown
at the voter's emotions from aU sides. We see with
Walter Lippmann "The frontier between what is
concealed beeause publication Is not, as we say
'compatible with the public interest' fades gradually
into what is concealed because it is believed to be
none of the public's business." The task to retain
perspective in the midst of election fever requires
a stern and steady eye. Just how steadily the
Britisher sees his politics is a moot question in the
current flurry of speculation.
Attlee's cabinet has made mistakes. In national,
izing mines the miners' pay stayed far too low.
In steel, the competent men with the "know how''
were readily replaced with green bureaucrats. The
Town and Country Planning as I saw It on the
borough level tended to ride rough-shod over
minorities and small business with autocratic
efficiency. The Labour Government since 1946, in
spite of all Its benevolence, has too often confused
its ends with means. Socialism has almost become
an end In Britain, a law unto Itself, until the
Bevan revolt brought into focus the danger ot
losing the human wood in the leviathan stab
trees. In the public eye the cards are staelreu
against Labom- on these points. But we oyght not
to forget that the Tommy's grumble is often a

Revue, since if the show was not a

"Wihile John Devereux, president
of the VOU, felt that Lawson was
only teciinically an occasional stu-

had been "always an occasional
student". Lawson had started work-
ing on the show last January and
Devereux felt that the whole show
revolved around him, as he was half
of it.

A Committee of Award has been
set up representative o£ the dif-
ferent faculties to select students
worthy of the bursaries. $2,000
will be allotted to approximately
six freshmen in five different fac-
ulties. The other half of the grant
will be given to students of high-
er years. Applications are now
being accepted at the Registrar's
Office. Simcoe Hall, from students
whff are permanent residents of
Ontario. All students other than
freshmen may apply.
Bursaries to individual students
will consist of approximately
$300 to $500 depending on the num-
ber of applicants and nature ol
their circumstances. These bur-
saries are a part of a grant of
$15,000 to be distributed among
six universities this year.
A study of the whole program
is to be made by the Atkinson
Charitable Foundation and will
determine whether or not tha
grant will be resumed next year.

For Students
Some people on this campus. It
seems, need to learn some man-
ners. Many places on the cam'
pus have been left in a mess late-
ly by careless eaters. These peo-
ple do not have a sense of respect
for the property of others.
Those on the left and many oth-
ers who did not appear in the
photograph managed to leave a
fair mess on the east side of U.C.
as can be seen in the photograph
at the right. The space in front
of Hart House beside the observa-
tory was also well strewn with
trash, despite the fact that there
were two trash cans within easy
reach of both spots. One of the
trash cans was half full and the
other was almost completely
empty.
It would seem that people who
are old enough to come to Uni-
versity should be old enough to
fl have learned some respect for the
J property of others, and for the
i liOraun fli thase Arpund theta.

ISS Medicine
From Canada
Is Crucial A id
University Health Centres In
Europe and Southeast Asia have
Just received a life-saving ship-
ment of drugs and medicines. This
shipment was made possible
through the United Nations, by
the Canadian Council of Recon-
struction, when they granted a
substantial sum to the Internation-
al Student Service Of Canada for
this purpose.
The drugs were dispensed
through the World University Ser-
vice, our international organiza-
tion, by two shipments, one to
Greece and Yugoslavia and one to
Southeast Asia. Reports have now
been received from both of these
regarding their distribution and
success.
Institutions which received part
of the drug sliipment included Uni-
versities in Delhi, Calcutta, Bom-
bay. Burma, and Indonesia. Re-
ports from all of these are the
same. They repeat over and over
the fact that the help came as a
life saver without any exaggera-
tion.
One person In Calcutta was suf-
fering from Pulmonary Tuber-
colosis. His doctors advised him
to have 20 grains of Streptomycin
which was beyond his means. He
approached the field office of the
ISS drug supply for it. received
bis medicine, and is still alive.
The story is much the same in
both Greece and Yugoslavia.
They felt that the work was very !
important there because of the
high incidence of tuberculosis and
the high cost of treatment. From
February through April 1951, a
total of 50 students in Europe re-
ceived 760 grams of streptomycin.
Physicians co-operate with
A Tragedy Started It
Just about this lime, many stu
dents are faced with the chore, a;
they feel it is, of going -throug^h i
distasteful medical examination.
Yet this check-up is for their bene^
fit.
Tile clilef aim of the University
of Toronto Health Service is to pro-
mote and to preserve the health of
the student body. It would be impos-
sible to accomplish this objective if
the students were not obliged to
have a compulsory examination to
find out whether they were physic-
ally fit to participate in sports, lor
instance.
The Health Service had its orig:n
in a tragedy, two tragedies to te
exact. In 1906, 2 students were kill-
ed while playing rugby. It was then
decided that aU students were to
be examined before they could play
any sport. The following year. Dr.
Barton became full-time health di-
rector, combining the duties of
medical examiner and physical
trainer. Tlie present Health Ser-
vice came into being in 1921 with
Dr. George Furter as the first di-
rector. The next year, Dr. Edith
Gordon was named the head of the
Women's Division.
In 1935, Dr. Gossage was appoint-
ed by the Athletic Association to
head the Hart House Surgery. He
was responsible for the reorganiza-
tion of the hitherto separate Men's
and Women's Health Service into
one unit. Under his supervision, the
combined Health Service opened its
quarters at the present address, 43
St. George St. Dr. Wodehouse di-
rects the Health Service now along
with his assistants. Dr. MacKenzie
and Dr. Stewart.
Besides being concerned with the
health of students, the Health Ser-
vice tries to maintain a patient-
physician relationship between the
students and themselves, vex-y much
like a family doctor would. In add'
tlon to medical examinations and
X-rays, there are the infirmaries
for out-of-town students for treat-
ment of ordinary illnesses, and the
Athletic Injury Service.
"We especially welcome anyone to
come for consultation about any-
thing that worries them — mental,
physical, or otherwise." invites Dr.
Wodehouse. "We want the students
to feel that the Health Service is a
place to which they can turn if any-
thing is bothering them."
The total physical attendances
last year numbered about 14,000
with 93.8% of the students fit for
uiu-estricted athletic activities. The
health of the student body is. on the
whole, excellent, and this fact well
reflects the good and conscientious
work of the Health Service.
DEBATE
The Garbage Man
What's the place of the profes-
sional faculties in a University?
Should they be included in it or
should a University teach only the
liberal arts?
Those questions should be an-
swered tojiight at the first Hart
House debate of the 1951-52 sea-
son. The debate, which starts at
8 p.m. in the Hart House Debates
Room, Is entitled, "Resolved that

This is a subject on which there
has been long and heated dispute
in educational circles throughout
the world. Many leading edu-
cationists have made statements
about it, among them Abraham
Plexner, who says (in "A Modem
College") that "Education cannot
be made a matter of bookkeep-
ing."
American stat« miiversities are
not universities except in name.'
insists Thorstein Velben in his
"Higher Learning in America."
"These establishments have been
founded, commonly, with a pro-
fessed utilitarian purpose and
have started out with a profession-
al training as their avowed aim,"
he continues. 'The purpose made
most of in their establishment
has commonly been to train young
men for proficiency in some gain-
ful occupation.
"They are founded by politicians
looking for popular acclaim rath-
er than by men of scholarly and
scientific insight and their man-
agement has not infrequently been
intJusted to political masters of
intrigue with scant academic
qualifications; their foundation
has been the work of practical
politicians with a view to con-
ciUate the good will of a lay con-
stituency clamoring for things
useful, that is. pecuniarly gain-
ful," he continues, and ends "They

universities because the name car-
ries an air of scholarly repute.'
On the other hand, the former
Chancellor of Chicago University,
Robert C; Hutchins, replies sim-
ply. "It is impossible to get an edu-
cation in an American univer-
sity."
And Dean Tupper of SPS says,
"The Professions grew up as Pi'o-
fessions in the University, and I
would challenge the wisdom of
divorcing them at this time. The
university is a university only by
embracing many disciplines, else
it is only a vocational school."
Two of the students who are de-
bating also have something to say
on the questions of professions
and the university. Jim Peters.
OCE, who will speak for the mo-
tion, says, "The University is
more occupied today in filling the
needs of industry and supplying.,
professional men than in the
search for and providing of an
ethical education worthy of the
name.
The university must recognize
its true role. It must repair the
discrepancies between material
and spiritual progress. Industrial-
ization does not equate civiliziitlon
and until the university ceases to
be an adjunct to business, it will

Travelling Ass'n
Covers Continent
The University Travel Club Is
not, as the name suggests, a travel
bureau sponsored by the University,
nor has it any other official con-
nection with the University of To-
ronto than that of its name.
It is a general Travel Organiza-
tion with offices all over the world,
its latest permanent office opening
in London, England, last year.
The University Travel Club acts
as an agent to the different steam^
ship and air lines and also conducts
its own tours.
Tours can be arranged to Europe,
Canada, the United States and
other distant corners of the world,
said G. H. Lucas of the University
Travel Club, but it is not necessary
to take one of the tours. Transpor-
tation can be arranged for those
with vagabond tendencies.
During the summer the Travel
Club organizes two hours which are
limited to University students from
all over the continent.
Last summer unlversiiy students
were conducted for seventy-six days
over all of Europe from Scotland
through France, England, Holland,
Belgium, Germany and other coun-
tries to Italy by Miss J. Gillespie, a
member of the University of To-
ronto French staff. The price of
the tour was $1,152 round trip, all
expenses Included and the trip was
made on the Cunard Steamship
Lines.
The University Travel Club, oper-
ating since 1926, has University
graduates as its staff members, and
often conducting the tours for the
Club are members of the staff of
the University of Toronto.
Believe it or not. the student body
as a whole still is not classed as a '
hopeless entity in spite of its initia-
tion antics, football fanaticism, and
whatnot. Miss Margaret MacMur-
ray o£ the University Book Store
was very pointed in her commenda-
tion of the student body and the
co-operation they had given her and
the rest of the staff.
Bat, of course, all is not a bed of
roses. Miss Barbara Earle. an em-
ployee at the book counter, said
one o( their chief aversions was the
self-service type who, impatient at
the service offered during the peak
season, would proceed on his own to
investigate the book stocks in the
rear.
Difficulties may also take on other
forms. Barbara said she was slight-
ly contused when approached for
the first time by a student search'
ing lor his "Dental Garbage". The
object of the search turned out to
be a case which she assumed
contain a miscellany of dental
equipiiient.
Here are a few tips to enlarge
your knowledge of book store eti-
quette. First of all. avoid the noon
hour and the 4 o'clock rush. Dur-
ing October, Miss MacMurray an-
nounced, the store will remain open
from 8.30 ajn. to 8.30 p.m. (8.30-I.0O
on Saturdays) to help alleviate the
rush periods.
The book store is not a replace-
ment lor the professor, and students
are urged to have at least some
knowledge of the books theyVequire
before they push their way through
the turnstiles. Printed lists of basic
t)ooks plus the various calendars are
the only guides available in the
store itself.
If you are temporarily out of
funds because that cheque from
home has not arrived ^et, drop in
at once, fill out a card, return it to
the staff and then relax. With al-
most no complications or difficulty
you will then! became the possessor
of a cliarge account.
Even those in the outer fringes
of the campus — pharmacy students,
grads. professors — should feel at lib-
erty to use this service which aims
at complete coverage of available
books. "We will order anything any-
one wants." stated Miss MacMur-
ray. The delay may be anywhere up
to four weeks for imported books
but local publications can be ob-
tained in as little as 24 hours from
the time of ordering.
Although still in the realm of
theory, it has been suggested that
students could now camp at the
store until ordered books were re-
ceived. Machines for dispensing
soft-drinks, cigarettes and chocolate
bars await their plcEisure and are
there exEH-essly as a service. Wit-
ness the 5c charge for drlnlts!

baleonj Tiewpoint
By FRANK HOBITSrCIT
Testerdi^ I ta&ed about why it was difficult
tor "good" movies to come out of Hollywood.
The compleslon of the audience to which cine-
■jogiiis must cater to make it almost impossible
- lor Hollywood to produce a mature movie. Add
to this the Puritanical Code of Censorship which
■ often allows some drawing-rotn innuendo to
- treep through but thiws up Its maniciu-ed hands
in horror when tht small boy runs to perform an
- urgent natural function in THfe BICYCl^
TBIEIP. And the pressure of minority groups
which lobby and lobby and lobby against. And
the incredible overhead which results from the
hierarchical systems of studio management. And
the over-emphasis is on the voice of the theatre
managers concerning film quality.
So, when Hollywood produces ALL THZ.
KING'S MEN. CYRANO, CHAMPION, THE AS-
PHALT JUNGLE, or even THE TOWN, it
Beems like accomplishments against fearsMne
odds. Recently of course, because British and
European imports have been the better products
on the whole, they have shown up the frequent
tinsel glitter of the American standard product.
Anywav, I mentioned two films, both over 30
years old, yesterday. These, CITY LIGHTS and
ALL QUUTT ON THE WESTE31N FRONT are
both better than most pictures made since that
time in Hollywood, and better ^han any HoUy-
wood picture made in the last ten years.
Fortnnately, this dogmatic criticism is not bas-
ed on nostalgia, as my high opinion for LIVES
OP THE BENGAL LANCER might be. <'I have
not seen the Gary Cooper epic on its current re-
release; I treasure my teen-age enthusiasms.)
But CITY LIGHTS and ALL QUIET were both
around just last year, and what a mistake it was
for me to see them. Because with these pictures
under the belt, frustration and only occasional
moments of fleeting satisfaction became the
routine in my subsequent movie-going.
I saw CITY LIGHTS twice last year. First
time was at the art house of Toronto art houses,
the Town Cinema. The crowd paid It the obei-
sance it deserved having come prepared to do
so. But second time was at the Casino Theatre
sandwiched between the stage shows Rural-
looking IoDl in over-alls, hot dog munchers,
people out for a good time made up the audi-
ence.
Yet there was the wonderful phetaomenon of a
Casino audience being held completely by the
Chaplin, roused to hilarious laughter in the
comedy sequences, and held to a torturing quiet
in the final agonizing recognition scene between
The Tramp and the flower girl who was not
blih^ any more.
Chaplin made a picture whi(^ had no speech,
only sound effects a^nd a musical background
that fit so well. Walking out of CITY LIGHTS,
you do more than merely recollect a good scene
or a good crack, or a smart dress worn by a fe-
male star. You feel a completeness of experience,
mixed with a sense of recognition with the little
man of The Tramp.
And how many of ns have said or thought
how little is the contribution of talkies to the
art of the film after seeing OITY UGHTS?
All QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT is
an honest filming of the Erich Remarque novel.
Based on World War I, it shows the futility of
war. Mud, boredom, fear, and man's frequent
descent into animalism are hurtled at you from
the screen, sometimes with the impact of the
old-fashioned machine guns, sometimes with the
Bgoni2dng waiting of trench warfare.
The highlight was the sequence in which the
German boy-soldier hero Is trapped during an
artillery barrage in a shell crater with a French
soldier that he has himself mortally wounded.
But even in the comparatively unimportant
meeting with the friendly girls, the bedroom
scenes were portrayed subtly then and even poet-
ically.
With both of these pictures, some element of
what makes up Life's experience was present,
Chaplin's world is a somewhat fantastic one,
and yet we recognize something we know ALL
QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT aims at
more realism and its mud does not look like
synthetic studio mud. ( When since has any
Hollywood film had that quality?)

THE ROYAL VISIT
Well-laid Plans
"According to the arrangements we have been able
to make," Registrar J. C. Evans remarked, "this is on'e
time when the little man gets the break." He meant
that the student and working-staff spectators outside
Hart House, unlike the academic dignitaries inside,
would have three different views of Princess Elizabeth
and Prince Philip when the royal couple visit the Uni-
versity of Toronto. "But," Mr. Evans emphasized, "all
our plans concerning the royal visit are tentative."
It is certain that Princess Elizabeth and the Duke
of Edinburgh will be on the campus between 12 :00 noon
and 12:15 p.m. of Saturday, October 13th. To make
possible both student and staff attendance, all labs and
lectures will be cancelled and all university buildings
closed on Saturday morning. University grounds will be
open to the public, but special areas are to be reserved
for students (presenting ATL cards) and for members
of the administrative staff (presenting tickets from
their respective faculties) . Absolutely no parking will be
allowed on any Hart House, Queen's Park, or Front
Campus areas.
The 1939 visit of King George and Queen Eliza-
beth, unlike the present royal visit, had little to do with
the University. The Queen reviewed the Toronto Scot-
tish on the Back Campus ; and their Highnesses attend-
ed a luncheon, in Hart House, sponsored by the Pro-
vincial Government. The earlier trip of the Prince of
Wales and Prince George in 1927, was also a non-
student affair as the visit was made in August when
the university was not in session. HRH the Prince of
Wales had made two previous visits to Hart House and
v/as very anxious that his brother should see the facili-
ties of the house. This time the University is responsi-
ble for 15 minutes of the royal itinerary. Only after a
monumental amount of worry and thought by the Regis-
trar's Office has the following tentative schedule been
evolved. ■
The fourleen-car royal caravan is expected to drive
through "the underpass" at 12:00 noon. It should circle
around the campus and come to a halt at the main
entrance of Hart House. The royal party will, weather
permitting, pass through the quadrangle to the Great
Hall. Amidst the dignity of academic dress, the Chan-
cellor will greet the Prince and Princess in the Uni-
versity's name, and they will sign the visitors' book.
They will leave Hart House by the East door, and should
proceed on foot through the underpass to the parlia-
ment buildings.

leet The Author
OF TV
And Tarzan
The Mechanical Bride by Trot.
1A. McLohan published by Vanguard
Fress, 1951, $5.50.
Professor McliUhan's book repre-
■ent-s an attempt to disengE^e cer-
tain basic patterns of our society by
concentrating on advertising as one
of its prime symbols. He beUeves
that modern man has been shaped
Into a predetermined complex of
basic responses to predetermined
■ituations, and that the means to
this end has been the tremendous
growth in communications, notably
the penny newspaper, the weekly
magazine, the radio and television',
and the spread of literacy over the
past 75 years. This process has been
»o outstandingly successful that all
vjiOju judgments now refer them-
sJmts in the last analysis to one
of the three standards of sex, suc-
cess, or hygiene. The billboard and
not the university now set the
values of society.
Dr. McLuhan regards the state
and society in general as a work of
art that it should be possible to
criticize as a work of art. Our "sup-
posedly wide - awake technological
World is full of childish bric-a-brac
and s^ts so much value on the
same:" to disengage its causes and
Its effects is his aim. Time and
Tarzan, the Na'^ional Association of
Manufacturers and drum majorettes
are all relevant to this technique.
The book hopes to dispel the col-
lective dreams of which the above
are social manifestations. "It is nice
to be enfolded in a collective dream
as long as the comfort is greater
than the pain, but we have nearly
passed the critical point. Conscious-
ness will come as a relief."
zn so bringing our minds to bear
■^5^n these key points, instead of
the reverse, we may be able to
tree ourselves from our own folk-
lore. One could take exception to
this and argue that a society at any
particular moment can only de-
velop (or have imposed upon It)
Lost
Atlantis
Atque
a folk-lore corresponding to that
particular level of culture it has
reached. But the analysis remains,
nevertheless, undeniablely correct,
and that is what is more important
The most Interesting conclusion
to come out of the book is that
we are here presented with a mon-
opoly of knowledge controlled by
. . . no one. The ad men and the
economic upper class who are the
most directly responsible are prob-
ably as conditioned by advertising
as much as the people to whom it
is directed. Increasing numbers of
people are induced into this state
of mental paralysis, but as yet there
has been no organized attempt on
the part of any specific group to
use this power for its own ends.
The mind of modern man has been
exploited in a variety of ways and
for a variety of ends; thankfully
there has been no cohesive move-
ment.
- Advertising Is a monopoly of
knowledge based on the conquest of
space, as opposed to one based on
the conquest of time. The idea is to
reach as many people as possible in
as short a time as possible. Nothmg
is less likely tc sell the product than
the ad that was used 10 years ago.
By that time, people have caught up
with the specific techniques, and as
these are understood, the value of
the ad is destroyed. This is the
very thing that this book attempts
Folk-lore is presented as a "whitling
phantasmagoria that can only be
grasped when arrested." When the
ad is contemplated, it can no long-
er have any effect on its victim: its
whole point is subconscious. To oe
successful, any ad depends on a
similar response from all whom it
reaches. The mind of each mdi-
vidual must first be collectivized so
that the ad man can be sure of
creating the response that he sol-
icits. He must have an unconscious
audience. *To put the thing briefly,
a power economy cannot tolerate
power that caimot be centrally con-
» oiled. It will not tolerate the un-
predictable thoughts and actions of
individual men."
The technique ol the book is cub-
istic. in that there Is no logically
connected argument, but rather a
series of essays which posesss unity
only when taken as a whole. Each
essay criticizes society from an angle
that has no apparent relation with
the preceding.

The Sea Around Us. by Rachel
Carson, pablisftted by Oxford Uni-
versity Press, 1951 — M.OO.
Water, water everywhere, but if
vou are in the same boat as I am,
you will probably know very little
about it. Here is a book, small
enough to look inviting, and yet
aammed witJi information for the
nterested reader. With the excep-
tion of boys in the UJITX>., we in
Ontario probably know little and
care less about the sea then we
should. Until I picked up this book,
I would never have believed that
the sea could hold so much of m-
terest to land-locked lubbers like
you and me.
Was there ever really a "lost At-
lantis"? Why is the sea literally in
our blood? What is the sea's phan-
tom bottom '? How was the moon
formed from the sea? This book
answers questions I could not even
have asked.
The Sea Around Us is written
by a person who obviously knows
and loves her subjects. The fact
that four out of five of the nation's
best sellers are stories of the sea is
an indication that she is not alone
in this. Miss Carson quotes freely
froEi many sources and displays an
ability to make her story- live. Sev-
eral illustrations and an expensive
bibliography and index round out
the book, which, incidentally
topped off by a very original cover
design-
If one were to find any fault with
the book, it would be the opening
chapter when Miss Carson is de-
scribing the b^innings of the earth.
Her cosmol<^ is obviously not as
good as her hydrography.
However the book is the work of
a first-rate writer who blends scien-
tific fact and literary abUity into
a vibrant work of art. The Sea
Around Us will stand for a long
time as a classic about the eternal
ocean.
George FierhcUer
Vale
Since the death of Sir Roger Newdigate In 1806. Oxford University
has offered annually a prize of twenty-one guhieas for the best poem
submitted by an undergraduate on a prescribed subject. The Newdigat«
Prize for Poetry has been won in the past by such famous men as
Mathew Arnold, J. A. Symona, J. Huxley, Oscar Wilde and Lawrence
Einyon This year the prize was taken by a graduate of the University
of Toronto. Michael Hornyansky who is attending Merton College on
a Rhodes Scholarship.
Now writing poetry is generally a very precarious business and not
the sort of thing one does often with the deUberate intention of com-
peting for a prize, let alone having someone else prescribe the subject
of your poem for you. Some people would contend that it is impossible
to write poetry under such conditions and immediately lose interest in
the competition. Mr. Hornyasky was not of this mind and seems to
have had no difficulty in finding appropriate words, images and
phrases as well as a suiUble situation to fit the topic offered, namely
The Queen of Sheba.
His poem follows an arbitrary rhyme scheme and is sustained
throughout with a careful and colourful choice of words. To my mind
the best stanzas of the poem come at the conclusion of the second sec-
tion where the Queen of Sheba is described:— "She is fair, my love;
behold, she is fair; Brighter than spiced wine, sweeter than midnight
/More secret than the rose . . . Aloes and myrrh succeed/Her coming,
frankincense attends her. Gold/ShaU adorn her hair, silver shall con-
fine/Her feet, and ivory and silk enfold Her sleeping: honey and sweet
wine shall feed," but readers who are familiar with the Song of Solo-
mon may feel that this passage is too indebted to the Biblical love-
^°"^Th€re is a skilful consistency in the way in which Mr. HomyansI<7
presents the thoughts of Solomon as he contrasts the confusion of his
own feelings towards the Queen of Sheba with the constancy of mind
which his people attribute to him. and which he knows they expect of
him He is brought to a closer realization of man's hmitations and
accepting these limitations, he becomes lost, at the conclusion of the
poem in a reverie over the Queen of Sheba:— "the chambers of the
stars 'declare, Her presence, who still binds with silver chains/The
mind'=i horizon: and the skv contains Her laughter. And at midnight
<;he remains Claiming the shadows of my mind, reigns there. Perhaps
I expect too much from thirty-six st-anzas of prize poetry, but I left
Mr Hornyansky's poem with the feeling that not very much had hap-
pened that either given me food for thought or made me want to go
back and savour some of the lines again.

thought and scholarship of a man ' equanimity, farsightedness, and hu
active for many years in American mility in the individual
higher education.
The excellence of this book's
scholarship may be judged from its
comprehensive and descriptive 24
pages of bibliography. Yet it is no
dry tract. Imagery, literary allusion,
and summaries make for highly sat-
isfied reading.
Lewis Mumford takes consider-
able pains, right from the beginning
of his study, to show the unhealthi-
ness of present-day Western civili-
zation. He is particularly disturbed
that man has bec6me his own most
dangerous enemy. Over- specializa-
tion, callousness, raw animelity, and
thoughtless activity indicate that
life itself has become uninteresting
and that culture no longer repre-
sents the necessities of modern
man.
God is re-defined. Interestingly if
somewhat anthropomorphic ally, as
tlie ultimate goal of creation, the
Impulse of divine discontent that
tantalizes man towards future per-
nor are
man's sensory equipment, memory
emotional sensibility, and genius at
handling symbols to escape cultiva-
tion. A daily period of withdrawal
should also help to plan better use
of one's free time. In this connec-
tion, it is unfortunate that the hnes
between dreaming, planning, and
imagining are not more precisely
drawn.
The goal is to project oneself into
the ideal iRenaissance) state of be-
ing able to replace anyone else. Such
all-roundness should be coupled
with today's technical knowledge to
attain the universal community so
necessary if modem man is not to
lapse into self-asphyxia and bar-
barism.
To question the over-all value of
these suggestions seems unneces-
sary. Yet, one carmot but wish more
attention had been given to the
■ how" of the process. To have the
principles of "a good life" is one
thing, but to find tlie essential (end
perhaps irrational) motivation to
live it is still very difficult.
In Shulman's earlier Barefoot Boy
With Check,
Eleven Short and Swift Stories,
most of the having made previous
appearances in American periodi-
cals, relate campus love affairs and
the "resultant comic complications
of a University of Minnesota lad
named Dobie CJillis. Shuiman. him-
self a grad of the the U. of M.,
created a reputation as editor ol
the school magazine. "Ski-u-mah",
and that accounts for the setting
However, as the reader will dis-
cover, the persons, places and situ-
ations are recognizable in any North
American university, with very little
alteration of detail. Even Dobie is
constantly transformed throughout
the book to give him the character-
istics of various campus types. The
unfortunate part is that one may
even glimpse himself among the in-
chxnations of Dobie.
As the author points out in his
Introduction: "Mean, small, captious,
and niggling readers will notice
certain discrepancies in the follow-
ing stories. In some of them, for
example, Dobie Gillis is a freshman;
in others he is a sophomore. In
some he is majoring in law : in
others he is majoring in joumalisrn
or chemistry or English or mechan-
ical engineering or nothing at all.
In some he is shrewd: in others
dumb; in some aggressive: in others
meek. . . . These tiny variations
will be noticed, as I said, by mean,
small, captious, and niggling
readers."
The quality of the stories suffers
in comparison with Barefoot Boy
With Cheek. As one reads, he can
almost predict the outcome of each
plot and what will be said next.
To switch an old MacArthur quote,
"In Humour, there is no substitute
for the unexpected". Although
Shuiman caricL\tures the "types",
the job is not always extreme
enough. The personalities are some-
times too recognizable, too familiar
on our own campus to be correctly
placed on a level of absurbity and
laughed at.
But perhaps that is being too
"mean, small, captious, and nig-
gling", for the laughable material
certainly dominates the opposite
kind. The Shuiman satire is in full
and glorious bloom. Nothing from
fraternities to freshman, from edi-
tors to essays, from parents to profs,
from physics to football, is spared
from the author's witty sarcasms.
Frosh, grads. profs, and all in the
Intermediate stagos will discover

THE VARSITY
Wednestfay, October 10, 1951
UC COPS TOP TRACK HONORS
Blue Soccerites
In Double League
For the last two weeks, the 1951 , foim a fast, thrustful forward line
version of the Varsity Soccer Blues lhat should pile up the Varsity goal
bas been practicing hard under the
critical eye of their new coach,
Ted Slade.
Many holes were cut in last year's
squad by graduations, and fellows
missing the boat, but so far they
have not proved too diffiult to fill.
Of last year's team the defence is
rtill intact, with Bob Lane, Tom
Broadhurst, Wally Eze, and Doug
iMoffat coming back to take over
their old positions. However the
front line has been shattered by
the loss of four of the five for-
wards, the most notable of whom
was Brian Barton, last year's play-
ing coach. Only Bob Antoni remains
to take over his old position to cen.
tre forward.
The Blues attacking force has
had to be reconstructed from last
pear's promising intermediates, and
new players that have shown well
In practice. The showing of the
Dew forward line so far has Indicat-
»d that they will be a formidable
tombination, and will be hard to
stop.
Manuel Atucha from last year's
intermediates will probably hold
down the left wing position. He will
have as his partner at inside left,
his younger brother. Jose Atucha
from Vene2njela. These two will form
a strong left wing, and ^ould give
a lot of added punch to the for-
ward line. On the opposite wing.
Al Logan from the University of
Saskatchewan has shown a lot of
promi.'^e as a speedy right winger,
and Ken Jessop will probably patrol
the inside right position. Tfiese
competent piayers, along with Bob
Antoni at centre forward should
averages.
Just who Is going to fill the all
important wing half positions on
the team is uncertain yet, but Gil
Toppin, and Ole Frierle are prom
ising candidates, and they should
fiU the bill well.
The Intercollegiate Soccer League
has been revised this year with tiie
formation of an Sastern. and
Western Division, with Varsity
competing in both. nM.C, McGiU,
and Toronto form the Eastern Di-
vision, with OA.C., Western and
Toronto making up the Western Di-
vision. This g^ves the Blues £
rather crowded schedule, with hav-
ing to play eight league games, and
one exhibition game in Uie space of
four weeks.
The new league structure Is such
that if Varsity wins in both di-
visions, she is automatically declar-
ed Intercollegiate Champion, but il
one of the other colleges win in
their respective divisions there will
be a play-off between the Eastern
and the Western Divisions.
The heavy schedule will be a
strain on the Blues, especially if
injuries occur, so a large supply
of reserves will have to be kept on ,
hand for emergencies. The turnout
during practice has indicated there
will not be much trouble in this re-
gard, but there is always room for
more. Anyone interested in trying
out for the Blues is urged to at-
tend the practices on the P^ont
Campus on Monday, Wednesday,
and Friday afternoons at 4.30, and
to sign the list in the Athletic of-
fice in Hart House.

As the javelin throwers in the Junior Interfaculty track
meet were taking their preliminary throws yesterday, a well
built figure wearing a spring coat, a shirt, a pair of grey
plaid stripes, and street shoes, walked up to the line, took
off his coat, picked up the javelin, and threw the spear
162' 10".
Vic Football Squad
Set For Good Year
victoria college, tast year's
Mulock Cup seml-flnalists will,
trom all pre-season apeparances,
again field a fast running, hard-
driving ball dub in the 1951 sea-
son. Still coached by Lew Pick who
1b ably assisted by ex-Blue Carl
Kanteroff, the Vic squad will have
many of last j'ear'fi men back on
the roster.
' Although the team has lost sev-
eral of the boys from last year's
gquad, notably Jeff White who has
graduated to the Blues, the empty
slots seem to have been very cap-
ably filled. Along the wingline last
year's team is again represented by
centre Jim Rogers and end John
Anderson along with towering
Tony Lobraico In the (ruard posi-
tion.
In the backfield Lome Lodge has
returned for another season as well
as shifty Mel Fraser. The tricky
running of Jim Bond will again be
an asset to the Bed and Gold team.
Out of the crop of new men on the
team this year the most impressive
is North Toronto's Johnny Fowler,
a short, blonde quarterback who
shows equal polish either handling
or passing the pigskin.
Many Injuries
May Weaken
Mustang Squad
Injuries Keep
Five Players
Out This Week
The hospital report for this week
on the Blues doesn't compare
with the ponderous tomes we is-
sued on the subject around this
time last year, and in view of this
year's teams superior strength
and experience, it will probably
not weaken them much, except
possibly in one or two positions.
However, some of the injuries are
quite serious.
Geoff White is cut of football for
the season, maybe even for life.
He was brought down by a hard
tackle in McGill Saturday and
went off with torn ligaments and
cartilage In his knee, was operat-
ed on the same night.
Tom Bird had a kidney condi-
tion, which will sideline him for
most if not all of the season. He
was on the operating table at the
Royal Vic in Montreal ready to
have his appendix removed when
some alert doctor suddenly dis-
covered it wasn't his appendix at
all.
Jack Roberts, right guard, black-
ed out for the second Saturday in
row at McGill. He is taking an
encephalogram today to determine
whether a brain injury has result-
ed, and will know from the results
of this whether he will play any
more. A terrific blocker, he will
be a big loss to the line if he is
out.
Bob Ramball will probably miss
this week's game as well as last
week's. However. Bill Bewley,
the first string right half, is in
good shape again and expects to
play Saturday.
OHe Mandi^k is in the same boat
as Rumball, will not likely play
this week. Joe Harris, the oth-
er casualty, has a hone formation
In his calf, but will be ready to
play.
Vic is again using the T forma-
tion and will rely mostly on speed
and deception as the squad is fairly
•mall in stature. The backfield as
% whole seems to be clicking fairly
well and a few more scrimmages
will whip the line into form. Vic
«an be considered a very potential
threat in the Mulock Cup race
While Bob Masterson is having
his troubles over injuries ^ Var^
sity players Coach Metras of the
Western Ontario Mustangs Is far
from being free from worry con-
cerning his own squad. It seems cer-
tain that both teams will start the
big game considerably below full
strength.
When the Mustangs played
Queen's they were without the ser-
vices <A Gerry Fitzgerald, Jimmy
Carroll and Geno Fracas. Fitzgerald
is out for the season (appendixed)
while Carroll is suffering a shoulder
injury and will not be ready for
Saturday. Fracas may possibly be in
the line-up.
In addition to this Metras Is fac
ed with the loss of quarterback Ray
Truaait who is suffering from a
groin injury. Centre Miller Gallow
will m<H-e than likely be forced out
of action as he has an injured
shoulder.
Bob ^fcMurdo may be started at
the pivot spot but he has sore legs
as also has halfback Bob Smith.
On the other side of the ledger
Varsity will be minus five players
for the imiwrtant game, details of
which may be found elsewhere In

* The throw, which betters the In-
tercollegiate marks for the past two
years anyway, is a poor effort ac-
cording to the man who did it. Jinri
Vrzesnevski, who came over Irom
Esthonia three years ago, says he
used to throw 190 feet when he was
competing several years ago, IT he
regains his old form, he stands a
good chance of breaking the Inter-
collegiate record of 193 feet, which
no one has come near since it was
set in 1938, and is a shoo-in for a
first in the Intercollegiate at the
end of the month. He ia in I PBiE.
In total points, UC edged SPS
39-35, with the 440 and 880 postpon-
ed till next week when the bleach-
ers will be off the far side of the
track. The results, for a junior
meet, were very encouraging, in
spite of the near-freezing tempera-
tiu-e. Besides Vrzesnevski's fine
record, there were good times posted
in the three mile, IDO yards, the
hurdles, and fair distances in the
shot put and high jump,
Tauno Ojala was the big winner
with two firsts, a third, and a
fourth. His 17.8 in the 110 high
hurdles and his 29.3 in the 220 low
hurdles were very good considering
there was no one pushing him hard.
Pal Johnson, I Vic, was another
double winner. His 17 : 13 in the
three mile makes him a possibility
for Senior Intercollegiate in shis
race. He also won the mile,
A surprise winner in the 100 yards
was Don Pawcett, II PHE and In-
termediate footballer and basket-
baller. Fawcett was rounded up as a
jjost entry by the UC athletic direc-
tor when it looked like no UC men
were going to turn up. He beat
Yeigh of SPS by a nose to clock the
century in 10.4.
Bemie Deuchars, I SPS, put the
shot 40'6". Bums high jump of 5'6"
deserves credit, as does Evans pole
vault of 9'6".
The meet was staged by the Phys
Ed faculty, and was well run. For
a whUe. in fact, it looked like there
would be more officials than com-
petitors. They far outnumbered the
^jectators, thats for sure,

321. Law's team was third, SPS
fourth, Paul Walton of Vic and
Jack Sheppard of Meds were the
best individually with rounds of

Yesterday's game between Vio
seconds and Physio and OT played

ralUed to bring in three runs hut
were stopped from further gain*
by effective Vic outfieWing.
In an exciting game at Varsity
Stadium PHE softball team defeats
the Vic I girls by a score of
seven to five. Outstanding playera
during the game were the right-
fielders: Marybell Segworth of Vio
and Joan Kennedy, pitcher for
PH^.
The third game of the day was
won by Meds, when they managed
to get two players around the
bases and home. In the short two
innings St. Hilda's team had plenty
of exercise and just as much fun,
but failed to make any impressioa

Bookstore?
Possibly one of the greatest needs on
Cie campus today is a bookstore. Not a re-
tail agency for anything that appears to
■ell, nor an in-between lecture snack bar,
nor a Readers' Digest dispenser, nor a
pennant bureau, but a real, honest book-
store A bookstore that is interested in be-
ing a bookstore and not. by a strange and
tortured process of metamorphosis, in-
tent on turning itself into a drugstore.
We are being optimistic and idealistic
and all the other things that students
are accused of being, by asking such a
thing.
Two years ago, when the University
Bookstore was offering a 10% discount,
ttie lineups were long indeed. Last year,
they tapered off considerably. Undoubt-
edly, decreased enrollment as much as the
lUscount, was responsible for this. Yet, in
ttie calm, uncrowded days of the very
postwar years, the Bookstore should take
gtock of itself, its purpose in the uni-
versity, its function as a bookstore and its
service to students.
' Such obvious bureaucratic absurdities
Its requiring a $2.00 deposit on all books
Which are ordered, (even on pocketbooks)
•ould be easily remedied by demanding a
deposit in proportion to the price of the
book to be ordered Again, It hardly
•eems necessary to sell bookcovers at 8
cents when they can be printed for about
«ie-third of the price by downtown job-
bers, if not by the University of Toronto
Press. These are small points among many
Wiuch could be made, but inexcusable be-
cause of their stupidity, '
The r_pally important thing which
Comment
University College's Women's Under-
graduate Association held its annual
treshtnan initiation last night, on the
eve of Yom Kippur. How very non-sec-
tarian of a non -sectarian college! . . .
We see that not only Hart House, but Vic-
toria College is concerned with standards
should be considered by the Bookstore is
its function — is it a bookstore or is it a
supply centre for texts?
Obviously, the Bookstore Is not satis-
fled to think of itself only as a place to
buy texts in September. The display
shelves, albeit meagre, contain a number
of books which do not seem to be specified
on any course. The fact that the store
continues to operate at full staff after
the September ru^ would indicate that
the Bookstore had ambitions.
How satisfactory the Bookstore Is In
supplying students with texts is open to
question. It may be said fairly safely,
however, that it is a better place to buy
specified texts than to buy books of a
more general interest. (The difference be-
tween books and texts is a matter of phil-
osophic interest. We consider a text as
what must be read for a course and a
book as what must be read.)
At present, the University Bookstore is
better equipped to sell soft drinks and
candy bars than books. The display is un-
imaginative and uninviting. They are
quite right in being so unpretentious. It is
an understatement to say that there is
hardly any room for books any more —
turnstiles and cash registers and other
machines eat up the limited space. While
this continues, there is little hope of the
Bookstore becoming a bookstore.
Only when the University Bookstore
ceases to think of itself as the women's
Hart House, can we again consider the
possibilities of having a bookstore on the
campus.

tions for '52 graduate pictures: "Men to

A Delegate To This year's ISS Seminar held at
jOttawa, the writer, Ian Montagnes, would like to sug-
gest some ways In Which Future Seminars might be
improved.
Tne ISS seminar held this summer near .
Ottawa was a success. There can be no
doubt about it; any meeting of students
from many countries is bound to create
international understanding. However,
there are degrees of success, and I pro-
pose to point out some places where there
was room for improvement.
The criticism, however, should not be
Interpreted as aimed at the Canadian In-
ternational Student Service, which or-
ganized the seminar. Tliat organization
can certainly bear improvement in other
fields, but in this case enough cannot be
said for the wort which the National
Secretariat, imder Pat Daniel, did to find
the necessary mOney and organize the
seminar. Without the work of Mf. Daniel,
the seminar would phobably have had to
be dropped early In the spring.
The greatest criticism which can be
brought to bear on the seminar was the
appaUing ignorance of the vast majority
of the students (myself included) con-
cerning current Asian problems. Whoso
fault this is would be difficult to say. 'ISS
must share part of the blame because of
its tardiness in sending out reading lists.
But even so, few of the students made
use of the library at the seminar.
This lack of knowledge showed up con-
siderably at the discussions, lowering
many of them either to a debate between
three or four "experts" or to a quiz session
between the lecturer and audience.
One delegate to the seminar, in an-
other student paper, describes the stu-
dents as "accepting nothing: at face value,
but thinking deeply and constructively,
accepting what they felt was right and
dis<?arding what they felt was wrong "
Actually, the truth was anything but this.
We had no facts to work on, and were
accepting facts wholesale from anyone
who seemed to have any authority. At
one point serious credence was given in
some quarters to a report by an Indian
student that in order to destroy the In-
dian weaving trade, the English cut off
the right thumb of every native weaver.
But the most serious limitation of a
Canadian seminar is its limitations on
the number of non-Canadians attending.
This year there were no English students,
only two French and two German stu-
dents. Belgium, with four students, was
the only European country to have a
representative delegation. The majority
of the European students were able to
come to the seminar only because they
happened to be in the country anyway:
they were either on their way to Cana
dian or American universities, or were
returning home from them.
In 1950. in Prance, more than half tha
. students were &u-opeans. This year they
represented only about one-sixth of tha
student body. True, this year we had a
large Asian delegation, which varied froin
two to thirteeri at different tunes. Still,
the large preponderance of Canadianj
(over half the students) destroyed to 4
large degree the international spirit of tho
seminar.
One of the strangest futures of tha
seminar was the failure of the Cana.
dian Department of External Affairs to
hecognize its importance This was the
first time Canada had played host to such
a gathering. Yet, at a time when tha
Communists were spending tens of thou-
sands of dollars on a gigantic Peace Rally^
the Canadian depfirtment refused our re.
quest of $2,000 to keep the seminar going
the expected five weeks, because "it didn't
kiiow where it could fit such an expensa
into its budget." Most surprising of ail
was the failure Of Lester B. Pearson, th«
Minister of External Affairs, or one of hia
top assistants to even make an appearance
at the seminar.
The most serious difficulty the seminar
laced was lack of funds. I^ast year tha
seminar expenses mounted to over $40,000.
This year ISS budgeted for $14,000, and
received $12,000. Whether or not high-
pressure salesmanship might have brougiit
in more money would be difficulty to say.
Some Europeans suggested that their
countries might have contributed some
money, (At present the seminars are ear
tirely Canadian-financed.)
At any rate, the seminar suffered h~
cause of lack of funds. It had to be cut
from five to four weeks It had to be in
Canada. It had some good lecturers, but
it couldn't get the top men in several
fields because it couldn't compete with
summer school wages. Seventy-five per-
sons attended it, as compared to H7 last
year.
No one knows whether or not there will
be a seminar in 1952. Considering the
financial difficulties of this year, it does
not seem too liSely. At any rate, my ad-
vice to ISS is this: this seminar was good
but it could have been iihproved. If you
can't get $30,000 or $40,000, don't have 1
seminar next year. It is better to havs
one first-class seminar every two yean
than to have an annual one that is jusi
"good."
IRON CURTAIN
Two Sideis
By J. A LOUGHEED
NFCUS— lUS— ISS: these are symbols
which float before the vision of the aver-
age student with varying degrees of il-
lumination. While I am no authority on
these international university groups I am
definitely interested in the cause of world
understanding or, to be more concrete,
the breaching of the east-west iron cur-
tain ; and let us never forget that the cur-
tain is not one-sided.
How many citizens of Canada or the
U.S.A. have read an objective report, or
heard an objective account, of Life in
Russia today. Not many I venture to say.
The ones who do not receive such re-
ports often become Marxists; once one
disagrees with "The American Way of
Life" one finds oneself outside the aura
of conventionality and consequently sus-
pect. Thus the person who attempts to
evaluate the world situation objectively is
cut off from the comfortable position of
blind nationalism and is likely to be
charged vaguely with socialism, which, as
George Drew pointed out incisively, is
synonymous with Communism. Cut adrift
from the right the would-be neutral is
forced to embrace the left.
We have just as effective a system of
protection from the truth on this side of
the iron "curtains" as they do in Com-
munist countries When we read the in-
side story on what went on in China
during the past decade we realize that
we were consistently deluded by the pop-
ular press for years, and that the opinions
of the "discredited" leftists have been ul-
timately vindicated. It is apparent that
that fallacious reporting over the past
few years regarding the political situation
in China hardened public opinion against
China and contributed to the alienation
of that country from the west. Ultimate-
ly it has resulted in open conflict when
the US pursued a consistently unrealistic
policy of courting the "democratic" Chi-
ang aiid refusing to recognize the people's
government in Chma. One does not need
to be a flabby sentimentalist to see some
merit in the viewpoint of the Red govern-
ment of China toward the western world.
It appears to be somewhat the same
story with regard to Korea. Stewart
Meaoham, who went to Korea ia 1946 as
labor advisor to Gen Hodge, the US gen-
eral commanding the Korean occupation,
had a letter in the Christian Century
Oct. 3, 1951. He speaks of the Gestapo
methods of Rhee's police who close news-
papers which do not agree with Rhee'a
policies and arrest political opponents ^
profusion. Despite the fact that rival
ponents were arrested and intlmidat
Rhee's candidates were administered ft|
whacking defeat in the elections of May
30, 1950.
The problem for the university student
Is to keep some degree of objectivity in
the present day of blanket opinion in ouf
leading newspapers and magazines. I*
would indeed be comlorting if one side
of the iron curtains, either the east ot\
west, were absolutely right but our uni-
versity training teaches us that probably
the truth is somewhere in between. Hifl
student has the privilege seeing behind,
and evaluating, news to a greater exten*
than the average citizen of Canada, ^\
the same time the student has the re-
sponsibility, and a frightening one todayJ
of ensuring that the true story of world
events is not submerged under the delugfl
of war propaganda now being disseminat-
ed in our press. I
It would seem that the proposal Wl
I.U.S. that the Russian students visit Can-I
ada is a saving idea in the curtajnedl
world of today. Perhaps if students werel
more vocal they could gain a more darinS]
and courageous policy on the part of thei'l
representatives in international student!
organizations. Perhaps if students wert
more aware of theh responsibilities the?
could prevent such slander as was ex-J
eanplified by George Drew's rather unigM
structed attack on Professor 'Infeld in tn'l
daily newspapers last year.
It seems that the lines are hardening
and the "One World" which Wendel WH*
kie envisioned is fast becoming two world*
each of which suspects the other of hft'*
ing no motives worthy of respect. The in^
escapable result of such a policy is wan
Surely it is the responsibility of the st*]

Enthusiasm And Indifference
Await Princess And Dulce
Nineteen of the thirty-£ive students polled yester-
day by The Varsity said that they were coming to
gee the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, Saturday
morning. Three of the remaining sixteen were
undecided, and the other thirteen had decided not
to come for various reasons.
The majority of the group did not know where
the student section was. although this has been
printed three times in The Varsity. Only five knew
definitely where it was.
Most of the students were coming because they
■wanted to see the Princess. Some were coming lor
sheer curiosity, others because they wanted to see
the future Queen of England. A Czechoslovak! an
student who had only recently arrived in Canada
felt that he would learn from the crowd how
Canadians feel toward the royal family and Great
Britain. A few of the women shyly confessed that
they were :omhig to see Prince Philip. One student
chortled quietly to himself, and said in a thick
accent that he was not at liberty to give his
reasons.
Most of those who had decided not to come were
going home for the week-end or else had jobs. A
few hardy individuals could not be bothered, ana
felt that the whole affair was over-rated.
Students will be able to watch the royal tour
from the island between University College and
Hart House. This area will be roped off and
reserved for faculty and students. ATL cards wUl
have to be presented.
No parking will be allowed on any Hart House,
Queen's Park or Front Campus areas.
The fourteen-car royal caravan will drive under
the Queen's Park underpass at 12 noon. The
Princess and Prince will meet Chancellor Massey,
President Smith and Warden Ignatieff before Hart
House. Then they will proceed through Hart House
quadrangle into the Great Hall, where they will
sign the Hart House Guest Book and the University-
Golden Book.
They will leave Hart House by the east door
and proceed by foot, weather permitting, to the
Ontario Parliament Buildings.
Hart House will be cleared of students at 10 a.m.
Saturday. Only those with special tickets will be
allowed in after that time. The only persons
allowed in the Great Hall will be members of the
faculty and the SAC.

In Year s First H H Debate
Royal Doings
The chief function of a univer-
Bity is to integrate the accumu-
lation ot linowledge and its prac-
tical application said Dr. H. B.
Van Wyck last night, in opposi-
tion to the resolution of the Hart
■House debate that "technical
training for the professions has no
place in the University," The reso-
lution was defeated by a vote of GG
to 26,
University life is a stimulus to
the professional student, said Dr,
Van ivyck, which alone justifies
the retention of technical train-
•ing in a University, for the re-
Bulting benefits not only to the
[Student, but also. to the public.
. However, he added that the uni-
. versity too benefitted from contact
with professional schools, as con-
tact with those who seek informa-
tion gives direction to the man
,who pursues wisdom.
Ik^ C. W. J. Eliot, Grad., the first
Slpeakcr supporting the resolution,
charged that the necessary sub-
jects of liberality and humanity
are neglected by the technical fac-
ulties. He said that education lor
life is no longer taught at home,
and that since we can no longer
trust the primary and secondary
education provided by the prov-
ince, it is therefore the task of the
university to tram and educate
people with a foundation of moral
excellence, without which all edu-
eation is baseless.
£Uc)t claimed tbat technical
timetables are too full for arts
subjects, which resulted in the pro-
duction of assembly line machines
Instead of hand-made creations.
He demanded that the assembly
consider whether the university
should set Its seal of approval on
those who know how to make a
living, but not how to live.
A profession is equally a voca-
tion for a philosopher or an en-
gineer, claimed Robert Shepherd,
Meds, the first speaker to oppose
the resolution. The motives of a
scientific profession, as distinct
^ from a trade, are to engage in re-
l^earch and to deal with Ideas and
Bypotheses. he said. Shepherd

tors and engineers may use their
professions as trades, equally as
many "arts" students use their

or their literary training to pro-
duce "best sellers."
The world is suffering from
•'galloping technological tubercu-
losis." charged Jim Peters. OCE.
the second speaker defending the
resolution. He charged that this
had reached its final degree of
degradation on this campus, where
it was proposed to pay a professor
ot Science more than a professor
of Philosophy, and where the
Psychology Department is hous-
ed in "hand-me-downs" on St.
George, while the Chemistry De-
partment luxuriates in a "palace"
on College Street. This, he said.
was a sign of the times, when the
University produced technicians
instead of "the full man" with the
habit of rational thinking and the
love of truth— -"the Ethical Man."
The second speaker against the
resolution, Geoffrey Hyde. SPS.
said that it would be impossible to
ban technical subjects from the
university, as this would defeat
the basic purpose of the institu-
tion, and leave it a "tall, ivory
tower of learning, with a narrow
and insufficiently strong founda-
tion."
Speaking from the floor in sup-
port of the motion. Elmer Sopha,
Law, demanded the reconsidera-
tion of spiritual and moral truths
before the extermination of man-
kind resulted from the material-
istic viewpoint of this age.
Collect At Once
Exchange Warms
The SAC Book Exchange will
start making payments on books
sold this year at one o'clock to-
morrow. It has over $9,000 to
dispose of. having handled over
1,100 customers since the exchange
opened.
Payment will be made from one
to five on the Thursdays and Fri-
days of this week only. The ex-
change wiU not be open after next
Friday, and any money not col-
lected WiU have to be picked up
next year.
There is still a good selection
of books at the exchange, and
there is a heavy demand for many
texts— The Government of Canada.
Psycholovy and Life. Principles
of Physics, and From Descartes to
Kant, in particular. Exchange of-
ficials stress the importance of
buying second term texts now.
They have several shelves of His-
tory, Philosophy. Geography, and
technical texts which will not be
needed untU after Christmas, but
as the exchange will not be open
then, tliey suggest that it is sen-
sible to buy them now. while it is
still possible to get secondhand
editions.
The exchange officials are anx-
ious to have students collect their
money as soon as possible to
avoid a last mhiute rush, and pos-
sible postponement of payment
until next year.
Buy Bloops From B&W
The Blue and White Society will
have girls selling bloops and rib-
bons around the stadium on Sat-
urday afternoon, according to
Publicity Director Hugh Niblock.
The B and W would appreciate it
if students bought from the girls
and did not purchase ribbons from
the hucksters. Niblock said that
all profits from the sales go back
10 the student through the socie-
ty's activltie.s around the campus.
There will be no B and W dance
in Hart House over the week-end
because of the All-Varsity dance
on Friday night and the Royal
visit on Saturday. Niblock said
that the only dance planned was
a tea dance in the Drill Hall on
St. George St. after the game. As
far as is known there will be no
rugby dances on Saturday night.

H. H. RULING
Woman Almost Man
Last night's Hart House debate
was number 100 hi the House's
history. It was also the first time
a woman has covered a Hart House
debate.
Varsity reporter Denise Richards
didn't find it too easy to get into
the Debates Room, however. As soon
as she entered the House door, the
Night Duty Officer called an of-
ficial halt to her progress. But
after much discussion and an ap-
peal to Debates officials, he abdi-
cated with a remark, "No ladies
are allowed in the House, but I
guess it's O.K. for the press."
When Denise went Into the De-
bates Room itself- there was even
more trouble. Foot stamping and
cries of "shame" echoed through-
out the hall.
The first item of new business
brought before the House was ft
motion by EUi Rubin. IV UC, that
■■the person at the press table"
either be declared male or neuter,
or be required to leave the Housa.
Calls of "Don't be silly" answered
him.
Finally the matter was quashed
by Speoker John Morden, Wycliffe,
who announced Denise could stay
because "she was not here as an
undergraduate membec of the Uni-
versity but as an accredited rep-
resentative of the press".

CHUBB CRATER
Meteoric Proof
—Photo Courtesy of Nationol Geogrophic Society
Dr. V. Mcen, left, Is seen with a companion at Chnbb Crater in
northern Quebec. Dr. Mecn and his party from National Geographic
Society and the Royal Ontario Musemn foimd definite proof this
summer that the crater is of meteoric ori|pu3. No fragments of the
meteor have been found. An expedition to the crater last summer was
only able to examine the rim and a small section of the surrounding
territory. One of the lakes near the crater was named. Museum Lake
to honor the research work done by the museums of the world.
Future work on the crater will be purely scientific and non-
commercial.
Dr. V. Ben Meen, director of the
Royal Ontario Museum of Geol-
ogy and Mineralogy, again this
year led an experition to Chubb
Crater, the world's largest known
crater of meteoric origin. The
joint National Geographic Society-
Royal Ontario Museum Expedi-
tion found that the crater had a
diameter of two miles and a
maximum depth of 1,350 feet.
The expedition sought for near-
ly a month for proof of the crater's
meteoric origin. In the final 48-
hours before the flyaway on -Aug.
22. the expedition's scientists dis-
covered the presence of a "mag-
netic anomaly" under the eastern
portion of the pushed-up crater
Im.
A "magnetic anomaly." Dr.
Meen explained, is a scientific
term for a magnet-indicated un-
derground metal-bearing mass.
In the glacier-scoured, granitic re-
gion of the Chubb crater area, it
constitutes proof of iron-bearing
meteqritic material.
The demensions of Chubb cra-
ter are more than double those of
the Canyon Diablo Crater, long ac-
cepted as the world's largest
known deoression due to a meteor
crash. Unlike the Canyon Diablo
Crater which is cut in compara-
tively soft sandstone and lime-
stone, the Chubb Crater was
blasted from hard granite rock.
The party worked under semi-
winter conditions, with the August
temperature staying in the 36-to-
45 degree range. Heavy woollens
and parkas were correct summer
wear in the region. The only
mammal seen was an Arctic fox.
Birds Included the American pii>-
pits, northern horned larks, sno^
buntings, terns, gulls, loons an^
geese. Trout, * however, were
abundant in the Crater lake

RYERSON INSTITUTE
Campilis C ommunitj
Ryerson has a Student Union. I
Ryerson has no parking problem.
Ryerson has approximately 2 men
for every woman. The "Ryersonian"
editorial rooms have nice new type-
writers.
Here's the story of how the Ryer-
sou Institute of Technology came
into existence, and what makes it
tick. During the post-war years, the
government spent a sanall fortune
on training equipment for rehabili-
tation purposes. The vets eventu-
ally left, and the problem arose
about what to do with said equip-
ment. still new and shiny, and very
much up to date. Canada's expand-
ing and understaffed industry saw
possibilities. What about a school
offering technological courses on a
college level?
The idea clicked with the De-
partment of Education, and before
you could say "Ryerson Institute of
Technology", it was. born. It has
grown fast — outgrown its campus
at Church and Gerrard in fact. In-
stitute authorities hope for a new
locale someday, one which will of-
fer a true college atmosphere.
In the meantime, Ryerson has
plenty of spirit, and the same ini-
tiation shenanigans and luter-de-
partment feuds that exist at Var-
sity are very much in evidence.
There's a football team, a debating
club, an annual "Miss Ryerson"
contest (for men) and something
called a gladiator race.

II Trade Course
' The American Institute of For-
eign Trade. Phoenix, Arizona, has
Bnnounced that a total of 189 stu-
dents have enrolled in their courses
this year. This is an increase of
eleven percent over last year and
contrast to the H-*percent decrease
In enrollment in all other institu-
tions of higher learning.
Fifty-three of these are enrolled
In a course for training for a for-
eign career, and will graduate in
February, 1952. The others will
graduate next June, and will re-
ceive the degree of Bachelor of For-
eign Trade.
The degree is offered to any who
are holding a tmccalaureate degree
and who have successfully com-
pleted the basic AEFT course.
This Institute was founded in
1946 and made its initial empliasis
in Central and South America
During the last two years area
courses on Western Europe and the
Far East were set up, and this year
French was added to the course.
There is little of the studied, ivy- '
covered academic atmosphere at
Ryerson. There is instead an in-
tense busyness about the place.
The faculty is young — the athletic
director is Ted Toogood. ex-Blues
star. The librarj', common rooms
and class rooms ai'e informal, spa-
clous and well lighted.
R.IT. is practically a self-con-
tained community. If a Ryerson
co-ed suddenly finds herself matri-
monially inclined (and the man is
willing) she may have her ring,
trousseau, home and furniture de-
signed without leaving the campus.
Meanwhile the food she eats in the
school cafeteria will be planned and
prepared by fellow students. The
"Ryersonian". the student daily, is
written and published on the
campus. C.GJR.T., the Ryerson
radio station has a listening radius
of 100 miles, and by Christmas,
T.V. will be in operation. Furniture
in classrooms and offices was de
signed and made at the Institute.
■ Principal H. H. KeiT explains
Ryerson's official educational statu:
in 'this way. "Ryerson provides
training for careers requirLng 2 or
3 years instruction beyond high
school. It is not simply a trade
school. Many of our students are
university graduates, and many
more of them enter university after
graduation from Rl.T. We are most
happy to co-operate with Varsity
in any way we can."
Connection has already been es-
tablished in that Varsity students
Physical " and Occu pational
Therapy, and Hygiene take some
classes at the Institute. Closer con-
nection may be established when
Varsity freshies begin signing up
for night classes in forward passing
under the tutelage of that magnifi-
cent athletic director.
SCIENCE NOTES
Forest Inventory
By OKIE LOUCKS
A report was published in Ontario in 1945 known as Ene Kermedy
Report. It discussed at great length the use and misuse of the Forest
Industries of Ontario and their related subjects. Since then almost every-
one in the province has been exposed, in one way or another, to this
report, and has had to pass an opinion on it, or more particulai'ly its
results or lack of results as the case might be. We of the Science
department would like to take this opportunity to clarify a few tech
nicalities involved in one of the main recommendations.
Ontario has been leasing ont its forests to the tim'ber companies for
yearly a century as if they were an inexhaustible quantity. As a result
the report stressed that before the government could look after and
supervise the operations of all the pulp and lumber companies in Ontario,
they would have to know how much tim^ber the province had to work with,
prbere it was, and what it was like.
This resulted in the Forest Resources Inventory which Is being
carried out now. When started it was the largest forest inventory of its
kind in the world. It attempted to find out the volume of timber In
Ontario to within a few percent, exactly where it was, the different
Bpecies that were there, and the condition it was in as regards age and
liealth.
The whole area that was to be inventoried was photographed and
large scale maps were made from them. Then Foresters took the photos
to the bush, took down field data about the timber on small plots, and
marked the spot on the photograph.
At the 'end of the summer, back in the office, the forest types
encountered were outlined on the photographs and again maps were
made. These maps showed the area of timber in which a certain species
predominated, and what condition it was in as regards age and health
Forest types that have the same quality of timber on them in one
place, have the same quality of timber in another place miles away, i'
it looks the same from the aerial photograplxs of it. As a result th
numerical data taken in one place can be applied tar other areas which
look the same but for which no data could be taken.
The information taken on the plots in the selected forest types Is
an exact tree coxmt by their diameter, species and average height classes,
Protn these figures volumes can be compiled for that area on a per acre
basis, and the estimate arrived at can be applied to all the area which
has been classed as the same forest type.
Over a period of five years the Forest Resomx:es Inventory has
covered nearly all of Ontario, and estimates have been made for nearly
ftU forest types in the province. At the same tune the areas of all the
types that were tallied have been taken, and in about two more years
the government will know along what lines they wiU have to reorgamze
their forest policies.
Now the government is able to tell, in general, how much timber a
eompany should take from an area if they are cleanmg it up properly.
This results in closer supervision of all operations, and since the regula-
tions regarding proper cutting practices and forest management are now
in effect, the great waste of our natural forest resources will be brought
into line as far as this small branch of it is concerned.

SPIDER BUSINESS
A FiBntasy — Tragedy
Last August when the announce
ment was made that Her Royal
Highness, Princesi Elizabeth would
visit the University ol Toronto
campus, people all over the Do-
minion began to prepare for her
arrival, and so too did some of our
animals.
Living In the t«wer Of Hart
House, is a small spider who has
never been toiown to do anything
remarkable. Jn fact no out has
ever known of him before. And he
did so want to do something im
portant with his Ufe. When he
heard that the princess was com-
ing to his very own home, he dC'
cided to do something very special
for her.
He planned to have by the time
she arrived an enormous web
stretching across aJl the tower win
dows in Hart House, "niis wouldn't
be an ordinary spider web ... It
would be a filmy fragment of gos-
samer filled with the scent of
Canadian autumn, which the sun's
rays would touch turning all the
silken threads into glistening bits
of amethyst, sapphire and aqua

royal princess.
The fUmsy game yru not only to
be » bauble to delight and amuse
tii« princess, it was to be a symbol
of all tbe higher hopes, the Ideals
and aspirations of all the students
who pass under the tower. For the
spider has been living in Hart
House Sot some time watching those
about him and sharing their col-
lege life. Now the time has come
for him to givt his contributicm to
Varsity.
So he enlisted the aid of some
of his friends. He talked witih the
use from Hart House pantry
who agreed to gnaw the moulding
of the window sashes in order that
the spider might have a firm
foundation upon which to begin the
masterpiece, and he talked with the
pigeons on Hart Bouse roof, and
tliey agreed to aid him in protect-
ing the web. And so the worlc was
begun.
Many times his labonrs were un-
done by the winds and the rain,
but early this week the piece of
art was almost finished. Oh, you
couldn't see It from the ground yet
because the sun's fingers had not
yet painted In the final touches,
but the spider was very pleased,
and the princess too would be when
she saw it.
And then came tragedy. From
the president down to the cleaning
staff, the rest of the university
was preparing for the visit too.
And in their seal the cleaning staff
swept away all the work of a whole
month on the part of the spider
and his friends, the mouse and
the pigeons. All their hopes of de-
lighting an almost "fairy" princess
were swept away with a few sweeps
of the broom.
Now the spider knew of the days
of labour which others were putting
into the fifteen- minute royal visit.
If the hours were added together
they would make a life-time of
preparation, but he had so wanted
to show the princess something
rare and wonderful from his uni-
versity . . . socnething besides
bunting and buildings.
With only -two days remaining
before the visit he has again begun
work on the exquisite web, but it
is doubtful whether the damage
will be repaired in time. Fe'i-'^ns
our Titian spider will never fulfill
his dream of presentiii" h:-
cate fabric for a future queen's
pleasure.
EMBRYO MP'S
Fee Planks
November 15 Is D-day for the
political cluijs on the campus. A neiy
system of election will be tried
whereby a campus-wide election will
be held to see which party is to be
put in power at the mock parlia-
ment. There will be no constituen-
cies and all students are eligible to
vote. Although this plan is new at
the University of "Joronto i# is a
tried and proven method at ipany
universities, including those in
Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
Two forums will be held in ad-
vance of the election plus a violent
epidemic of soap-box oratory, in
addition to the usual pub-pumping
associated with a campus political
campaign", stated J. Medcof. presi-
dent of the Liberal Club.
This year there is a tentative plan
to hold Mock Parliament in the
Legislature. Mock Parliament, al-

politics will be convened twice, once
Plans & Aims
Of EAC Told
At WUA Meet
The plans and aims of the Ex-
ternal Affairs committee were set
forth yesterday afternoon at the
WTJA meeting by Joan present,
rn UC. The Ejrternal Affaurs Com-
mittee is a local amalgamation of
liSS and NFOUS.
EAC will work this year to broad-
en the scope of exchange scholar-
ships and to prepare a booklet on
university costs, texts, and academ-
ic standards to be distributed to all
Ontario high schools. If it is suc-
cessful EAC hopes next year to
publish this information for all
Canadian students.
The student Faculty Committee
of EAC hopes to arrange a Caledon
week-end with OAC, AVA and Mc-
in December and once in January.
In the past it has been along de-
bating lines and restricted to the
campus buildings with the exception
of two years ago when the speaker
of the Ontario Legislature banned a
discussion of the Charitable Gifts
Act and the Liberal Government
resigned. This year, however, the
sessions will hi run on more par-
limentary lines with the added pres-
tige of using the Legislature.
At the first loeeiing of the Liberal
club on Oct, 16 the guest speaker
will be Campbell Calder, MPP for
London. There will be a group dis
cussion to set the club policy for the
year. Topics will be Liberalism, and
Price Controls vs. Credit Controls
for which they expect to come imder
fire from the campus. The latter
problem will be thrashed out among
the members at the meeting so they
may take a unified stand on the
problem and defend their view in
Mock Parliament.
The fees question is going to be
a popular platform during the com-
ing elections and both the LPP
and CCP parties are concerned with
it. "The low income group is being
hit hardest of all due to the way in
which Mr. Abbott is attempting to
control inflation," said W. Parker, of
the CCP club, "We are concerned
with hope of finding greater op-
portunity for advanced education
for members of lower income
groups." The CCP club would pro-
tect lower income groups, express
opposition, and offer the CCF policy
Master, also exchange week-ends
with American colleges to further
student understanding.
An Austrian good-will tour is
planned for sometime this winter,
and a Host Committee will be set
up to welcome foreign and exchange
students to the campus.
EAC will attempt to ftuui^ trav-
el information concerning work-
camps in Europe, and Canadian
Youth Hostels.
Nominations for WUA Secretary
and First Year President were ac-
cepted, with their election this Fri-
day.
of price controls and control of
profits, added Parker.
"We believe," said Marg O'Kell of
the LLP club, "in fighting to pre-
serve peace, and working with stu-
dents for economic needs — lower
fees, lower - priced books, more
scholarships and bursaries." At the
beginning of the term a conference
was held at which a statement was
drawn up to the fees question -to
arouse interest on the part of all
students.
Th2 Macdonald-Cartier club in-
tends to participate in the coming
elections and urga students inter-
ested in the Progressive Conserva-
tive party to come to their meetings.
The coming elections should be
heavily polled in view of the pre-
parations being made by the four
political clubs on the campus. The
party securing 40% of the votes will
obtain 40% of the seats available
in the 90-seat Legislature.
Parking Space
Big Problem
At McGill U.
Montreal (CUP) — Sixty-five
students have already applied for
a bare twenty-five parking spaces
allotted to student vehicles by Mc-
Gill University. And there is still
a week left to apply for the spac-
es. ''
The business of sorting out who
are the deserving from the non-de-
serving falls on Ralph Shackell,
secretary-treasurer of the Students'
Society. He will decide on the
basis of distance of the students
from the campus, number of stu*,i|
dents carried to McGill in the car^-^;|
and any physical disability re-
quiring his service.
Located close to the downtown
section of the city with its main
entrance on one of the busiest
thoroughfares, McGill has a per-
ennial parking problem.
The University is looking for a
larger parking lot, near the cam-
pus but so far it has been unable
to come up with one.

Sad News For Intermeds
Pinkney And Kimoff Out
Visit London Saturday
With the Intermediate Intercol
legiate football season set to open
at Western on Friday, the Baby
Blues so far seem to be an un
known quantity. Their one exhi
bition game, which they lost 4-1
to the Cobourg Galloping Ghosts,
didn't prove too much due to the
poor ',^'eather and to the fact that
the Blue and White didn't really
begin to click until the second half.
Once they did get started they
Bho'wed a strong offense, missing a
touchdown by a mere foot.
The spectre of injuries, which
seems to haunt the Seniors, has
reared its unwelcome Head in the
Intermeds camp already, claiming
etar back Bob Pinkney for the rest
of the season with a fractured arm.
The other main casualty is first
year man Bob Kimoff who has a
iiad knee.
Several members of last year's
team have graduated to the Big
Blues, notably back Bill McFar-
lane. who is playing some good ball
for the firsts. Olie Mandryk, Hank
Tamowski, Ray Yakasovitch, and
Bob Leeming are others who have
moved up. Harry Hyde and Johnny
Adams were called up a couple of
days ago to fill some of the spots
left by injured players.
Holdovers from the 1950 team
Include speedy Don Pawcett at
half and Gerry Fitzhenry at quar-
ter. The former dashed off the 100
In 10.4 in tlie Jr. track meet
if he can duplicate that speed on
the gridiron he'll be all right. Earl
Ford returns at fullback. Bob Milne
at end, Al George at tackle, and
Jim Murray at tackle.
Some good-looking- newcomers
have come up to offset the loss of
players to the Seniors, but two of
them, the aforementioned Pinkney
and Kimoff, are out of action right
now. Kimoff, however, is expected
to be back in harness soon. Tliese
two players came from champion-
ship teams last season, Pinkney
from TSSAA winner Humberside
and Kimoff from the TDIAA
champs, East York Goliaths. Half-
back Doug Geekie from Salt Fleet
has shown well, as has end Gene
Choresteckl, brother of Johnny,
former^ Blue star.
fltids Ted Lansky and Danny
Nelson from the Red Feather win-
ner St. Catharines, show some
promise along with back Eddie
Ksiazek, up from Hamilton Delta.
STAFF MEETING
There will be an important
tneetlQK of all women sports
writers in The Varsity news of-
fice this coming Friday at
1:00 p.m. All those who will
be unable to attend are asked
to get in touch with the Sports
Editor or leave a not« in the
news office before the meeting.
Although the team will un-
doubtedly feel the loss of Pinkney,
they should be able to hold their
own with the rest of the league.
The game with the Colts Friday-
will put them to the test.
Sportswoman
PRE U vs. ST, HILDA'S
While the Yankees and the Giants
are having a battle of the bats
down in New York, the baseball
enthusiasts of St. Hilda's and PHE
fought it out behind Trinity yes-
terday. As it turned out the Trinity
girls swamped the Phizz-Edders by
a score of 22-5.
The game lasted only one and
one-half innings, but during theii-
one trip to bat, the St. Hilda's girls
managed to bring in their 22 runs
before PHE could take over. The
Phizz-Edders 'fought hard but the
lack of a short stop was a set-back
and they could do nothing against
the onslaught of the opponents.
Wonder who will tackle St. Hilda's
next?
MEDS V VS. ST. HILDA'S
Sparked by the superlative pitch-
ing of Irene Hain. Meds V took a
2-1 decision from St. Hilda's II
_yesterday. Hain also hit a triple.
Sallie Sarles provided the two runs
for Meds with a home run that
scored a teammate on base as well
as herself. Nancy Allen pitched a
nice game for St. Hilda's.
TENNIS
The Women's Interfaculty Tennis

will represent Toronto in the In-

Blue Soccerites
Travel To Guelph
Tomorrow, both senior and In-
termediate soccer teams travel to
Guelph to open the Intercollegiate
soccer season against O.A.C.
For the Senior Blues, it will mark
the beginning of the new Intercol-
legiate Soccer League set-up, hav-
ing Western, O.A.C, and Toronto
in the western division, and R.M.C.,
McGill, and Toronto in the eastern
division.
The Blues will have to be up for
this game as Varsity has not been

Last year's Mulock Cup cham-
pions, the Faculty of Forestry,
are, from all reports, far from the
equal of last year's team. Ac-
cording to informed sources this
Fall's team is going to miss the
help of a lot of old-timers who have
graduated, since last season.
One of the most important of
these holes Is the position of quar-
terback which was handled last
year by Syd Sheldon. This year's
team has lined up two new quar-
ters, both of whom are fairly good,
but need considerable experience.
These are Bill Earle of third year,
and Teddy Taylor from first.
There are several others who
have come in from first year, and
are replacing the gaps created by
the loss of stalwarts like Austin,
Collict and Masterson, but like
rough and ready. In the past it
has taken the Blues a little time
to get used to their kick and run
tactics and to settle down to their
own pattern of play. However this
years Blues appear to have a strong
defence, and also a fast skillful
front line which should give the
Aggies plenty of trouble.
The Intermediate League con-
tains Western, O.A.C, McMaster,
and Toronto, and the Little Blues
will be out to win the championship
again. So far this year the lute.:-
mediates are a question mark with
only Bill Rundle, Dave Johnston,
and Ted Kersey remaining from last
year's team. Promising interfaculty
players such as Mat Derzai. and
Doug Quirk have come up to fill
the holes and a strong team should
result.
A Weekend With Sturman
A nicer, friendlier town than
Monti'eai we don't think youll ever
find. Personally we enjoyed every
doUar of our stay there.
To start things off on a buddy-
buddy basis the McGill Redmen be-
came our "cousins" and blew a 7-0
hcilf time lead allowing the Varsities
to cash in on 15 points with nary a
reply from them. Now that was real
sweet.
But those Montreal hotels . . .
they're so nice to incoming tourists.
You ask for a room and bath and a
glib-tongued room clerk tells you
in fractured English, "Tlie room
I'll give you, but the bath you'll
have to take yourself." You finally
wind up with a room that is so
small all you can dream about are
midgets. For this you pay ten dol-
lars a nite but when the manager

paying good dollars for poor quar-
ters.
And how about those adorable
Montreal girls. To say that they
are friendly would be the under-
statement of the year. One fellow
we know was walking back to the
Mount Royal after the game when
breath-taking young doll rushes
up and embraces him. He though it
was a miracie wrought through the
use of Voids. Well sir, this doll
squeezes a piece of note paper Into
his hand, kisses him again and then
disappears. The note read, "I am
madly in love with you. I cannot
live a moment without you. Come
to room 6099 in the Mt. Royal at
midnite tonite."
Comes midnite and our friend
goes to room 6099. He takes another
look at the note and notices that it
the others they will need a lot
more experience before they are
the team that Forestry had last
year.
Running the show again this
year is Gord Whitcombe, who
played and coached them to the
title last year. Despite serious
losses on the team, Gord thinks
that with enough training he may
get another good squad again this
year. Also helping in getting the
team together in Bill Earle, quar-
terback, who played football for
Cornwall in his highschool days.
Bill is now coming to the fore in
his third year.

The nite-life in Montreal is real-

But the moral of this whole little

As a result, Harry Hyde and John Adams, who Wi
sent down to the intermediates last week, have come
without even getting a chance to get acquainted. Hj"
will replace Roberts if the medicals Jack is taking pro'

White's injury leaves Alex Lawson the only man *

the intermediates to spell Lawson, but so far he hasn't deci]

suppose. After all, he needs a quarterback too. But if thii

Andy O'Brien has a priceless quote in the weekend
to the efect that "Canadian colleges have stuck to a code

There is a dark side to every
golden cloud — in the spirit of
which reversible adage the edltorisil
writer of the Times pens the fol-
lowing:
"The Town Council of Berkeley
has passed to print an ordinance
prohibiting gambling by cards, dice
or other games. A tidal wave of
morality seems to have lashed it'
self furiously against the walls of
the University town.
"A state law prohibits the sale of
liquor within a mile of the Univer-
sity buildings; the faculty of the
University, at the insistence of the
coeds who are interlopers anyway,
has issued an eciict prohibiting tha
smoking of pipes and cigarettes h$
the students; a fastidious pres^
animated by motives that pass for
moral ideas, has protested against
■midnight orgies' in the Academio
groves; other elements are en-
deavoring to deprive the student*
of the innocent pastime of badger
baiting; and now comes a ^tiff-
necked generation of town trusteet
to set the seal of disfavor oU
gambling.
"What pleasure, recreation, hilar-
ity, may the overworked student
indulge In? Wherein may he seek
surcease from the arduous effort
to conjugate a Greek verb or dis-
entangle himself from the maze of
Roman datts and medieval history?
The coeds decline to flirt — they
are too serin\is. too earnest in their
aspirations for that; lawn tennis ia
insipid; croquet is out of fashion;
baseball is too rough; football is
dangerous and other forms of sport
and amusement are unsuited to the
University environment. We are
afraid that the student will have
to study."— Berkeley Daily Herald*

Enthusiasm. That's the feeling of

tlancing directors. Pour of the
flancers in the chorus were in the

bition and who of us would dispute
that Mr. Durante has an eye for

Vic shows have a name for start-
ing songs that end up as college
classics. The Subway Song, the To-
ronto Song, and even the Persian
Kitten — these are all children of
Vic productions. This year there is
going to be a new one to join the
legion of tunes that have been
written about the K.CJl., if you'll
pardon the expression. The direc-
tors of the show tliink that is one
of the cleverest parodies written in

the continent needs any more
publicity, it's got it.

Wides' Bssue
— Cortoon by Hugh Niblock.
While it may seem like nothing- more than the proverbial
"teapot tempest, we have watched with increasing interest
expressions of opinion on the recent "reg'ulations" regarding,
dress in Hart House.
In the columns to the right today Hart House Warden
Ignatieff has posed some of the larger issues he sees in-
votved in the dispute. It is true that there are certainly
larger issues; we do not feel that the meat of the matter
has yet been reached.
Indeed, while we agree with the analysis that the
Warden has presented of the situation, we can not look on
this latest edict of the Board of Stewards as anything less
than an unjustifiable assault on some of the basic rights of
the individual in a democratic society.
We are certainly concerned with education in this Uni-
versity. And it may even be true that the University is doing
the proper thing when it undertakes to educate the whole
man, to look after his manners as well as his mind. Yet the
key to education, as we understand it, lies not so much in
legislation as the Board of Stewards have assumed, but
rather in leadership and example.
You do not tell a man what to think in a university,
you point out ways of thinking. And by the same token,
you do not tell a man what to weai*, but point out ways that
clothes can be worn.
There is a tendency in the democratic world to involve
the individual to a greater and greater degree in mass stan-
dards — of thought, of taste and of action. There are those
who apparently feel that an elected body has the right to
legislate on just about anything that comes into its collec-
tive head. We doubt that such is the case.
It seems wiser to maintain the point of view that elected
bodies should keep legislation to the barest minimum, and
that while they may lead as best they can in certain fields
there are places where they simply do not have the right
to lay down the law. Over and beyond this, no elected body
should ever feel that it has the right to take unto itself
functions which the majority of those to whom it is respon-
sible feel are outside the ^•'one of its jurisdiction, no matter
how "right" the cause.
Hart House is built on democratic lines. Most of the
time it manages to exercise its legislative functions with
regard to its activities in the spirit of the democratic tradi-
tion. Yet in this case we feel that it has undertaken to regu-
late too much of the individual man.
Though the Stewards, and this paper, may deplore the
current standards of di^ss which appeal to many under-
graduates, it seems the height of high-handed autocracy to
say that those undergraduates shall or shall not wear this or
that kind of clothing. It is almost as bad as the Federal
government trying to tell the men of this country that
they shall make love in such and such a way. or that sweets,
for the good of the general health, will only be eaten on
Tuesday,
Mass standards do not appeal to free men. Tt does not
matter whether tho.se standards are political, religious,
social or ethical — they must all of them be judged in the
same court.
The Stewards, in attempting to place the mass tie that
binds around the mass male undergraduate neck have not
only overstepped their responsibility, but have violated one
of the basic principles of the men they represent.
Editor, The Varsity:
I read with interest in your columns that the
Foresters' Club had discussed dress regulations in
Hart House and had voted 8 to 1 against the
imposition of any standard of dress among students
using Hart House.
As this raises a number of wider Issues tor the
University you may consider it worthwhile to con-
tinue the discussion a iittle further.
The question is just how far could or shouJd a
University consult majority student opinion in
ordering its affaii-s? I often hear .the phra.se: "most
of the students want" or "most of the students
think."
Here is one instance when somebody took the
trouble of discussing an issue and arrived at a
majority opinion by means of a vote.
Suppose it represents the opinion of most of the
Btnd en tsstu dents of the University, should the
administration of Hart House accept this as
Diandatory and act accordingly?
The University, which is so important a part of
Democratic Society, obviously cannot be wholly
authoritaiian in its methods. But just how far
should Democracy go and how exercised?
On the academic side there are some fairly
obvious limitations. If student majority opinion
was to be the criterion of academic courses and
requirements one would probably find most lectures
and the examination system done away with —
perhaps not a bad change but one which students
would find difficulty in foisting on our legislators.
It is also probable that the exacting courses and
the precise such as calculus, the classics and tech-
nological theory would give way to the easy,
popular and vague — such as courses with a prac-
tical flavour, psychology and sex. This is not
underestimating student intelligence — it is just
human nature xn the process of undisciplined self- .
expression.
Surely the whole process of education is largely
that of acquiring discipline. It is the process
whereby a confusion of latent impulses, aspirations,
appetites and ideas are brought into some sort of
order through discipline — self-discipline achieved
by the constant inter-action or tension between
the student and the teacher. It should not be a
one-way process.
"When it comes to extra-curricular activities the
picture is somewhat different. In many European
universities the administration ends its responsi-
bilities with the classroom and the students
organize their own extra-cuiricular life. There is
something to be said for this as a method of
developing student initiative.
In North America the University is concerned
with educating the whole man or woman and
considers extra-curricular Ufe as part of that
education.
In this University, as in most others on t
continent, student extra-curricular activities
provided for and regulated by the University,
process of education for Democracy is a consci-
and controlled process and as such is subject,
discipline. The discipline is not entirely impo"
from above but one which is developed throt/
the inter-action of students and administrators
Hart House, as part of this system, happens
be one of the most Democratic institutions of
kind on this continent. By Constitution,
Warden is not an autocrat. He is merely Chaii
of the Board of Stewards, which is the governj
body of the House and on wl?ich undergraduai
are in the majority.
As In all well-ordered Democratic society
exercise o^ authority is channelled through {
elected representatives of the people. Tlie stud*
members of the Board of Stewards are elec
■ Secretaries of the major committees, with iisua
a year's experience on the committees of the Ho
A representative of the Students* Administrati
Council sits on the Board. The whole male undt,
graduate body of the University is free to exerV
its suffrage — undergraduate suffrage — at Ha
House elections each spring,
It is the Board of Stewards who have come
view with increasing disfavour the growing s!o
piness of some of the students using the Ho
and have felt that this attitude is not in keepi
with the dignity of the House or University.
When one sees some students come to eat in t

Why Uiiiverisities ?
Editor, The Varsity: i
^ The other day I had a» ap-
pointment with a doctor in the
Medical Arts Building with whom
I had not had any connection
before. Among other things he
asked me how I liked Univer-
sity. I told him I liked it very
much and that the only thing
I could wish for was that some
of the professors were better
speakers. He agreed with my
point and transferred it to his
own profession. "We have top
many doctors who know very
little about medicine, but they
have a large clientele • because
they know how to talk to people
and tell them what they hke to
hear," he said, then continued,
"there are doctors here I simply
refuse to be together with, and I
leave the room if they enter."
I was startled at his last state-
ment; however, it was not until
I read in the newspaper the next
day that a prominent Canadian
Dr. Hugh Keenleyside had re-
fused to shake hands with Dr.
Hjalman Schacht ond called the
latter "a disgrace to the human
race and a despicable scoundrel",
that I -began to think over the
medical doctor's words.
Many thoughts went through
my mind — these men have re-
ceived what most people would
call a high education, but is it
true education when such men
have not learned to live with their
fellow men? Why do we go to
university? Is it merely to learn
how to make more money, or to
get more power than the other
fellow, or is there a higher goal?
Maybe these men are exceptions,
but they make me wonder
whether we are really progressing
in spite of atom bombs.

Editor, The Varsity:
During the past week a squib
has appeared each day in The
Varsity. These squibs have dealt
with the inconveniences result-
ing from the absence of a Student
Union Building. The Varsity ap-
parently feels a Student Union
Building is indispensable. Why
does it not promote a contest,
therefore, on means of obtaining
such a building?
As a first suggestion In such a
contest I offer the mebhod used
at the City College of New
York. The students of this uni-
versity want a two million dollar
Student Union Building. To lOb-
taln this sum they are engaged in
a continuing series of mons
raising efforts. Among the men
raising efforts are dances, cai
vals, athletic events, and
quests for contributions. In f '
manner over a million doll'
has been obtained.
In the same marmer, I belie
the money for a Student Un'
Building could be obtained
the University of Toronto,
course it would take some ye
to get the required sum.
need for a Student Union Build
ing at the University of Toront
will however exist in the future
it do*;s now.

Dr. John Do w
MAt Convocation
Addresses Vic
The "Truth that makes men
tree" is the knowledge that comes
from Chiistian experience, con-
cluded Dr. Dow, addressing the
Victoi-ia College Convocation of
Arts last night. Reveiend John
Dow. professor of New Testament
Literature and Exegesis in Em-
manuel College spoke to a large
audience of Victoria College pro-
fes.sors, students, alumni, and
graduating students in Victoria
chapel.
Knowledge derived from learn-
ing may lead to truth and real-
ity, he said, but it often ends in
"shallowness, arrogance, and in-
fidelity."
Regarding knowledge, "we must
feel like pebbles on the shore of
an immeasurable ocean." he said.
But. he decided, "you don't touch
reality until you hear the song
from the other shore." With this.
Dr. Dow indicated that the chris-
tian experience is essential to
-Ji^finding Truth, and concluded witli
Jkjhe Biblical suggestion: "Except
ye become as little children, ye
cannot enter the Kingdom of God,"
Following the address, Regis-
trar M. St. A. Woodside awarded
the scholaislilps. Professor Wood-
side said that he would be ex-
cused from flippancy In present-
ing the prizes, since flippancy de-
rives from true pride. "A chara-
1st reports that soft soap Is SO
per cent lye," he added.
Bookstore
Strongbox
Is Robbed
Thieves broke into the Univer-
sity Press Bookstore Wednesday
night and cracked open a strong-
bos containing an undetermined
amoimt of money.
Press officials have refused to
give an estimate of the amount ot
money stolen. Manager Alex Ran-
kin said yesterday it was "not a
consideri\J)Ie sum; not worth the
effort"; downtown papers ranged
in their report from $2,000 to S5.000.
The cracked strongbox was dis-
covered by night watchman Harry
Hamilton, about 1:30 a.m. yester-
day morning. The door had been
forced by stolen railway bars.
Police suspect at least three mea
took part in the robbery; two to
force the safe and one as lookout.
The men jimmied one of the small
windows on the north side of the
building, and entered through it
by standing on one another's shoul-
ders.
They then moved the safe into
the back room and smashed it
open. In their flight they left be-
hind their tools, described as rail-
road tools six to seven feet long.
Police think the robbery was a
professional job; it showed too
mucli planning and too much
knowledge of bookstore hours to be
an amateur job.

Sidney Smith and Warden
Ignatieff.
12:0e— They enter Hart House,
pass through the quadraogla
into the Great Hall.
12:u9 — They proceed to the dais of
the Great Hall, are welcomed
by Chancellor Massey. and
are invited to sign the Guest
Books of the University and
Hart House.
12:14— They leave by the East
Door of Hart House and pro-
ceed to the Parliament Build-

U. of T. Rolls Out The Carpet
This is the Blues' first league game at home. It is the
Western rugby weekend. It is the eve of the annual All-
Varsity Fall Dance,
But it is also the weekend of the Royal Visit, and
everything else has been set aside.
When Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip ari-ive to-
morrow noon, an estimated 5,000 stt.dents and acuity wd
be on hand to cheer their reception before ' H°"f ■
the royal couple visit the largest university Canada and
the largest private men's club .n the Commonwealth.
Some students say they are indifferent; insist they
will not be out Saturday morning to see the roya coup e
But the majority will probably be there, enough to prove
that royalty still has the best public appeal in the world
today. . . . -II .
Decoration has been kept to a bare minimum; m Hart
House there is onlv a bit of blue and white bunting above the
main doorway. A few flags can be seen above the underpass.
But outside of that, Hart House has been left in its own
austere Gothic splendor.
The Princess' fourteen-car cavalcade is expected to enter
the Queen's Park underpass at exactly 12 o'clock noon
tomorrow. It will make a circle around the campus, then re-
tracing its path south of the bookstore and end up in front
of the West doors of Hart House.
From here university officials have set down the
schedule with minute precision. The motor tour should take
three minutes. At exactly 12:03 p.m. the Princess will get
out the right side of the car, before Hart House, where she
will meet Vincent Massey, Chancellor of the University,
President Sidney Smith, and Warden Nicholas Ignatieff.
At 12;06 the royal party will enter Hart House, pass
the Hall Porter's desk, into the quadrangle. They will cross
the quadrangle and enter the Great Hall. The only spectators
allowed in the Great Hall will be members of the Board of
Governors, the Senate, the Students' Administrative Coun-
cil and senior academic officials.
Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip will proceed to tha
dais of the Great Hall, where the Chancellor will welcome-
them, and they will be seated. University officials hope tha
Princess will reply to Mr. Massey's address, but this is not
definite. The Royal pair will be invited to sign the Presi-
dent's Guest Book and the Guest Book of Hart House.
At 12:14 the royal party will leave Hart House by tha
East door, and proceed by foot to the Parliament Buildings.
If the weather is bad, they will drive.
This 15-minute tour climaxes many weeks' work by
university officials. When the royal visit to the university
was first anounced, a committee was formed to plan tha
schedule. Three weeks ago the Warden could be seen pacing
the distance across the quadrangle to see how long it would
take. The postponement of the visit brought other prob-
lems. Now tomorrow is the day.
Lectures and labs will be cancelled and the library will be
closed the morning of Saturday, Oct. 13, for the royal visit.

Toronto hospitality that mars our
welcome to Westem this week-end.
It's just that when Royalty visits
the Queen city, the Mustangs don't
stand a chance.
Western students are finding
the royal visit to Toronto is real-
ly complicating their plans. First
of all. their special train had to
be cancelled because neither rail-
way would supply the equipment.
Then they found it was nearly
impossible to find accommodation
in the Royal York. A few lucky
students who had their reserva-
tions weeks ahead stiil have their
rooms. But they will be lonely.
As soon as the royal visit was
postponed to this week-end. the
Royal York stopped taking room
applications except for members
of the royal party and tlie press.
Where the Westeni overflow is
Main body of Purple and Whtto
supporters is expected to arrive
at the Union Station at 3:25 p.m.
today. A suitable reception for
them as they cet off the train will
be next to impossible because of
the Royal Visit.
Possibly the saddest part of the
entire week-end is the lack of a
big dance after the game. The
only big event of the entire week-
end is the AU-Varsity Pall Dance
tonight, an affair which is rather
limited in numbers. There will be
a Blue and White Society tea
dance Saturday afternoon. But
the big Western Ah'.mni Dance
which was going to be held Sat-
urday night had to -be cancelled,
because the Pvincess will he din-
ing on the entire convention floor.

Law Students Greet Frosh
With Varied Social Plans
Tlie students' society of the
University School of Law held
their opening social meeting last
night at the West-End Veteran's
Club. The senior classes were
hosts to the first year men. in-
troducing them to the wider activi-
ties which supplement the aca-
demic study of law. An interest-
ing feature of what might be call-
ed a stag in a predominately male
school was the presence of the
women members of the course.
Club President Jim Torrens, III
Law, outlined an expanded pro-
gram for the coming year. Speak-
er-meetings will be enlarged to
cover rgular discussions. This
■will mean more student pai-ticipa-
tion and v/ill increase the value of
jsuch meetings, he said.
The social side of the activities
■will feature the annual Mardi
Gras extravaganza held each fall.
This has been compared favorably
with the famous Quatre Arts Ball
in Paris. This year a semi-formal
dance in the spring term will be
introduced. The season ends
Torrens explained, with a posh
banquet in March at which the
Club entertains the Chief Justice,
eminent members of the Bench
an4 Bar to gather with the Deans
of some of the Faculties. The first
business meeting was announced
for Tuesday.
Emphasizing the value to be
gained from activities outside
those of professional interest,
W. L. S. Trivett, S.A.C. represent-
ative, gave a brief description of
student activities on the campus.
He further suggested that the
school might be interested in dis-
cussing a proposed brief to pre-
sent the Canadian point-of-view

■Guest .^Book, Hart Hoi:se," and
'University of Toronto."
The pages of deckle-edged paper
are of stiff white parchment, and
each page is decorated with the
Hart Hbuse crest printed in red ink.
Two title pages precede the first
signature and are printed in gold
and colored inks in a fine pattern
very like the old French manu-
scripts of the Lee Collection. These
title pages are by Frank Carmich-
ael, one of the famed "Group of
Seven." While the inscription of
the first title page is the satne as
that on the cover, the second con-
tains the history of Hart House and
the prayer of the founders.
A gift of Rouss and Mann. To-
ronto printers, to Hart Houye in
1921, the Guest Book is enclosed in
a glass-covered case of natural oak
which is hand-carved in Gothic
style.
Following the first signature, that
of Edward. Prince of Wales who
later reigned as Edward VIII, are
written the names of distinguished
men and women from probably
every nation in the world. Biograph-
ies are kept on each signer and will
eventually be compilea Into a com-
panion book after the Guest Book
has been filled.
Last year 100 new pages were
added so frhat there is now a total
of 200^pages in the book.
Among the famous names in-
scribed which fill over half of the
book are those of Governor Gen-
erals and Prime Ministers. Even
Ripley's name is included. Thou-
sands of distinguished men and
wom?n in various fields have sign-
ed the Guest Book while visiting
Hart House. Page 83 of the book
contains the signatures of King
George VI and Queen Elizabeth,
who signed during the royal tour
of 1939.
Although more men than women
have signed it. there is a high per-
centage of feminine names in th.
Guest Book. ^
At approximately 22:13 p.m. Sat,
urday, Princess Elizabeth and th»
Duke of Edinburgh will add thcu
names to the Guest Book on 'ih"
dias in the Great Hall of Hart'
House using an ordinary straight
pen. Another page in the histor,

filled. ^

To JBuy Tickets
Varsity football fans will have to
cheer louder at the rest of the
games this year if they want to
equal the vocal power of last year's
rooting section. According to J. P.
Loosemore. Financial Secretary of
the University Athletic Association,
the reason for this is that decreas-
ed registration has caused the
ticket sales to be down 1,800 from
last year. This meant that instead
of 8.600. there will be only 6.800
Varsity fans in the rooting section
during the 1951-52 season.
Tickets were no longer on sale to
the majority of students, but those
who registered late would have until
5 o'clock to purchase theirs, stated
Mr. Loosemore.
As a consolation to those stu-
dents' wives Jfho are sitting at home
this year while their husbands at-
tend the games (or vice versa), he
said that next year arrangements
would be made so that they would
be able to purchase student tickets.

Yesterday afternoon Knox Col-
lege handed out a 3-0 drubbing to
.| Forestry. Both teams were faU-Iy
well matched with Knox making
better use of their opportunities,
and showing better finishing power.
Late in the first half. Dave
Murphy sneated a ground shot past
the bushmen's goalie. This ice-
breaker egged the clergymen oi
and early in the second half Mc
Kennley scored with a well placed
shot. A fair exchange of plays fol-
lowed, but this was soon broken by
a scorcher from Welch's boot which
left the goalkeeper gaping.
Tn the other afternoon game,
Trinity's goalscoring machine was
held to a 1-1 draw by UC, The But-
tery boys, blessed with their Ber-
mudian imports, started out im-
pressively. Despite them, the tJC
squad remained undaunted press-
ing Trinity's defence. Hugh Rowan,
Trinity's roving forward played his
usual fine game, and opened the
scoring with a "doll" that came his
way.
This was early in the second hall,
and seemed to open up a determina-
tion among the U.C. forwards. De-
spite fine playing by Gaunt and
Dashwood. tJ.C.'s Russel made a
dash that had Pettigrew holding
thin air. The game p2tered out to a
tame draw with tJ.C. pressing hard
for the clincher.

Princess city) will play host to another Intercollegiate fool
ball weekend.
«r 7'^^ 1"f^stion will be borne by Johnny Metras'
Western Mustangs, the Purple and White of London town
and Bob Masterson's Varsity Blues. With first place at
stake, this game is rated by many of those so-called footbal
analysts and experts as a key game
of the 1961 season, especially for
the Blue and White squad. Fresh
from an uphill victory over the Mc-
Gill Redmen. the Blues are out to
prove it wasnt jiist a fluke, and
that their team does possess the all
round power needed for a cham
pionship this year.
On the other hand, Metras and
company (especially the Western
Press Agents) have been hollering
Blue murder that the Mustangs are
possessors of the strongest line in
the Senior circuit, and although
they lost one of the finest lot of
backfielders ever to graduate into
Senior company, they still have
through Johnny's fine coaching
talents, one of the best backfield
groups they have had in past years,
at any rate good enough to win the
Yates cup this year. However, Mas-
terson's crew are out to show these
press agent.s that games arc won
or lost on the field, and not on
newspaper type.
The Blues will probably start tiin
same lineup that played such a fin,
(last) half game of football ]
Saturaay at McGiU. This probi>
means that Al Dancy will be u
centre, flanked by guards Hames
and Bruce Miles, with Capta.n
Johnny Evans and Joe Harris at
tackle. Al Brown and Jimmy Bell
will complete the line at elM posi.
tions.
Alex Lawson at quarter with Bill
Macfarlane and Murray Hadlow at
left and right half respectively, will
likely line up with Steve Oneschuct
at fullback and Al (Sure Toes) Hale
at wingback to start things run'
ning against the Mustangs.

ta have almost, but not quite,
"gang aft a-gley."
Originally scheduled to produce
"The Merry Widow", final plans
make the operetta for this year
"The Chimes of Normandy." by
Robei-^ Planquette.
Reasons for change of plans are
strictly financial, explains Graham
Jackson, conductor and producer
of the operetta. "We lost money
last year because expensive pro-
duction caused us to surpass the
budget, m addition, the regis-
tration of University College has
dropped, and therefore the UC
Lit budget has been cut."
With the grant of the Lit to the
Music Club lowered, the budget
for the operetta has been cut one-
tliird. Since royalties and rental
of music in previous years have
amounted to about $400, prospects
for an operetta to match those of
previous years looked grim.
However, three years of suc-
cessful production of such shows
as "Red Mill and "Naughty Mari-
etta" could not meet with such a
harsh fate, felt Jackson. "We
rummaged around, and have come
up with a non-royalty operetta
which is every bit as good as
'Merry Widow'
"The Chimes of Normandy "
takes place in a town in the France
of 1867. Written in the style of
Offenbach. (Gaite Parisienne and
Tales of Hoffman), it is gay and
tuneful. The story is a charniing
legend of a haunted castle whose
chimes are supposed to ring on
the return of the long lost heir.
The songs include "Legend of the
Bells". "That Night. I'll Never
Forget", and the rollicking "Ci-
East German youth is sincere
in its protestations of friendship
Shirley Endicott. IV Vic. told the
International Relations Club's op-
ening meeting yesterday after-
noon. Miss Endicott, Rowena
Smith. School of Social Work, and
Elmer Sopha, n Law. gave their
Impressions of European recov-
ery and the varying attitudes lo
western policy they encountered.
Miss Endicott attended the Youth
Festival held in Berlin this sum-
mer. She claims that news-stor-
ies of typhoid and hunger at the
conference were erroneous. The
German people no longer want to
make war on other peoples, she
declared. The working class bit-
terly resents the importation of
American arms. "The^e people are
more interested in an improved
standard of living than in ideo-
logical considerations." she ex-
plained.
Sopha was in Finland this sum-
mer with other University of To-
ronto students working on the
construction of technical school
buildings. He reported that the
Finnish economy is impoverished.
Reparation payments demanded
by Russia, loss of territory neces-
sitating resettlement of one-eighth
of the population on uncleared
land, and a shortage of American
dollars have made recovery ex-
tremely difficult. There is every
sign of democratic government
Sopha said. The Communist party
controls one-fifth of the seats in
the legislature. Finland has no
concrete foreign policy and is en-
tirely uninterested in membership
in the United Nations, he said.
Rowena Smith spent the sum-
mer in southern Austria at work
camp clearing avalanche debris.
She found the people desirious of
building "their own country in
their own way." A great many
dispossessed people want only to
get out of Europe, she said.
Next weekend thirty members

sian-U.S. clash on the world at

THOU&HTS FAIL DL
toon by Hugh Niblock,
Welcome!
Tomorrow at noon in a short, simple ceremony, The
University of Toronto will welcome two young people to this
campus. Our welcome will by nature be a smaller one than
much of the ballyhoo that will greet Princess Elizabeth and
Prince Philip as they travel across Canada.
The University is proud to play host to the Royal
Couple. We wish that it were possible for them to stay
longer, and perhaps meet some of the undergraduates of the
university. Time, and an almost impossibly rigid schedule,
does not permit this.
For those students who will be on the campus tomorrow,
and for the many who can not be here, we want to add an
undei-graduate greeting to that being offered throughout
the country. Such a happy occasion will long be remembered
at the University.
BSooped and Happy
It's going to be a big weekend. On top of the Royal
Visit, we are ushering in the 1951-52 football season, as the
Western Mustangs come down for Toronto's first home
game this year.
The boys from London, and particularly their fans, will
find the city in a bit of an uproar. Many plans have been
upset, but in spite of the inconviences we want ' to extend
a royal welcome to Western,
Football, and all the things that go with it, marks a
happy time in the undergraduate year. It's too early to
have started worrying about one's academic work and the
pleasant fall days spread a lazy feeling through the air.
And with football, all the traditional spirit and fun that
this University can generate comes rushing to the surface.
It has been a constant wonder to this paper that it
seems to be only football that can really draw the various
parts of the University together. College and faculty lines
are forgotten as the Bloor Bowl fills up. And for a few
brief hours we are a University.
It is not until after graduation, when the world begins
to close around us, that the same understanding and expres-
sion ot a University returns. As such, the experience is a
useful and valuable one, for it brings to the surface the
unity of the experience that the men and women of the
University undergo. That unity, often forgotten in the heat
and rash of undergraduate days, remains one of the greatest
strengths of this institution.
The Blues, in spite of the injuries which have plagued
Coach Masterson, go into tomorrow's game in good shape.
And we hear that the Mustangs are likely to put up some
stiff competition.
There is an inevitable bias that enters the picture when
we look forward to the outcome of football games in which
the Blues are playing. We expect they will win, gloriously
and decisively.
u * ^^^^ week's game in Montreal
behind them, we wish the Blues good luck tomorrow. For
emphasis, we leave you to the cheers of 10,Q00-odd, blooped
and happy undergraduates who will be cheering you on.
By PEARL PABNES
Judging from reactioas of twelve universities to
A CUP que-s^ionnaire sent out by The Varsity, the
calibre of Canadian amateur acting is on a high
level. Support of the university drama group, how-
ever, ranges frnni tlie apathetic state at Western
to the well-filled theatre at the University of
Toronto.
Acadia, too, suffers from the mediocre reception
given to its productions. It has an ambitious pro-
gramme inciucliug a Shakespearian play, a current
Broadway hit. French plays, a religious one-acter
by S.CM. and an interclass drama festival with
entries by each of the four years. It is headed by
Piof. H. S. Sipperell. "probably the best dramatic
coach in Eastern Canada," according to the report
received. Yet one of the productions, Joan of
Lorraine, despite enthusiastic reviews, brought out
only one-tenth of the student body.
Dalhousie, with superior stage and lighting equip-
ment, and acting of "amateur excellence," fares
raiher better, with one-half to two-thirds of the
students attending on student nights.
Bob Toye* president of the Players" Guild of the
University of Western Ontario, gave a discouiag-
Ing report of drama on his campus. The acting, he
claims, "as amateui- acting, is amateur." He blames
lack of dramatic a'taiiosphere and general lack of
Interest on the campus for this condition, yhe
atage available to the Guild is very small, with no
dressing rooms and poor lighting facilities, "a
very hieh-schoolish affair," he explained. Although
Purple Patches, the annual show, is enthusiastically
received by students and city officials alike, the
drama productions are poorly attended,
Paradoxically, it is the smaller colleges which
generate the greatest enthusiasm for dramatic
pix>ductions. The Sock and Buskin Drama Club at
Carleton College, equipped with a very good stage
and actors who participate in the Canadian Reper-
toi7 Theatre and the Ottawa Little Theatre as
well as in campus productions, creates a good deal
of interest, prompting the following editorial
comment in the College newspaper:
•The Buskins deserve praise and encouragement
for their full schedule of dramatic endeavours. If
the other clubs on the campus showed as much
interest in their work as this group, Carleton would
be the most active club centre in the university
field."
The University of Montreal, with only two pro-
ductions in the last two years, has reached a high
standard of excellence. "Fantasio" by Alfred de
Musset, viewed by University of Toronto students
on one of the Carabin weekends, sent the Toronto
people heme raving about the nioderni.stic decor,
which gave a three-dimensional effect, and the
"impeccable manner" in which a three-act play
was produced by a minimum of sets on a stage
without curtains. A one-act adaptation of Oedipus
Rex was enthusiastically received by the Montreal
students, who designed and made all stage props
and costumes. Concentrated effort is put into the
production, with the actors of Oedipus Rex spend-
ing one week up north to get perfect precision.
The University of Alberta, with a drama depart-
ment closely allied to their drama club, two
theatres and excellent technical equipment, covers
all aspects of dramatic art. A full program includes
one-act and three-act plays, classics, Canadian
and radio plays, with such ambitious projects as
Madwoman of Ch^illot. Anna Christie and Mac-
beth. Costt'raes and scenery are designed and made
by the students, with ingenious plans for diiplica-
tion of sets.
Saskatchewan, with a drama school, a small but
adequate theatre, good stage and excellent lighting
equipment, oroduces all their own scenery and
costumes. Their usual six to eight-night stands,
including Russian and Greek translations, are well
supported on the campus. McMaster, with facilities
which are "terrible, or worse" still manages to
produce a three-act play and participate in the
Int- r-'.': i Drama League Festival,
St. Francis Xavier, another small college, special-
izes in modern three-act plays. Despite crowd
rehearsal time, little or no previous training, a
few productions, the enthusiasm and intci-.^
created in the student body is excellent. partiouJai
musicals (e.g., Brigadoon), comedies and fare
Serious drama does not draw well, however, an
fifteen to twenty percent of the students will n
attend any production. An excellent auditorium '
the basement of the college chapel po.ssesses
large, rather disproportionately long stage, wi
good lighting equipment. All scenery and costum
are made by the students, as at most of t
universities. 'Muslin covering is used here for seti
since it is cheaper than canvas and adequate foj
the purpose. As is the case in most universities
there is a lack of construction and storage spau
for scenery.
prices for campus productions usually range from
50 cents to one dollar, with the University o(
Ottawa, which gets an excellent student support
charging 25 to 40 cents.
The kinds of productions in the various univer.
sities is fairly constant, including one-act aiiij
three-act plays in English. French and Germai
Shakespeare and modem productions. Attempts at
"theatre in the round," the arer-.i-style productions
in which the audiente sits on all foui' skies of the
stage, have been made at Toronto and Western.
Silver C-jrd and First and Last (Galswortiiyj
have both been produced at Toronto, with enthus.
iasLic receptions. The Western University Players'
Guild did Exodus. Abstract plays are in vogue as
well, with The Hungerers and No Exit creating
furors at thejr respective universities.
In general, opportunities for original productions
are good, but interest in them is lacking. At the
University of Toronto, few plays are entered in the
Robin Godfrey competition for the best student-
written play. The winning entries are produced by
the University College Players' Guild. Floor shows
for dances at Carleton College are written by stu-
dents, but a competition for student dram'
produced only one result. At Western, there is
standing Guild prize for any student- written, oii
act play produced by the Guild, but interest has
been poor, and the prize has never been awarded.
Dalhousie has produced two original plays by
students, and Alberta, like Toronto, accepts original
radio scripts. '
Toronto and Alberta appear to be in the forefront
In the attempt to produce Canadian plays. Several
one-act plays have been done by the college
societies of the University of Toronto, and Fortune
My Foe was a successful Gill production last j
Another Robertson Davies play. At My Heart's
Core had a successful two-week run at Alberta.
The University of Toronto Drama Committee,
an organization which includes representatives
from each of the college guilds, pi-oduces several
bills of one-act plays each year. There are "invita-
tion" evenings, in which plays are exchanged
between colleges. Every large faculty and college
produces at least one musical show, with the All-
Varsity Revue, when -It is produced, collecting talent
frcra the entire campus. Student interest in the
theatre is excellent, particularly for musicals and
the three-act plays presented at Hart House
Theatre.
Several universities participate in provincial.
Intercollegiate ai>d Dominion Drama festivals.
Western this year plays host to six universities in
the Inter-Varsity Drama League Festival,
Newspaper coverage on the whole is good. Several
universities have permanent critics covering all

OUR READERS WRITE
Gumption Needed!
Editor, The Varsity:
Can you explain why the gov-
erning body of the Inter-collegiate
football league has apparently
scrapped our distinctive Cana-
dian football rules and practically
adoptgd holus bolus the American
game, even to the names of the
positions of the players— guards,
tackles, ends and even the for-
ward pass.
This inter -collegiate league is
composed of four enth-cly Cana-
dian Universities and I see no
reasons why they should adopt
these American rules. The old
Canadian game was adinit>d by
the Americans themselves to be
much better, it was a more open
game, more running, passing and
kicking and much better from
the spectators" point of view.
Wliy should we submit to dom-
ination of the Americans, even
in our si»rt. Surely we have
more backbone and gumption
enough to go back to our distinc-
tive Canadian game, especially in
our wholly Canadian league.

Highlighting their 16-7 victory over the Western Mustangs
with a thrilling 108 yard touchdown march in the second
quarter, and sparked by the brilliant play of Steve Oneschuck
who won the hearts of the 24,423 fans in attendance, the
Blues proved in no uncertain tei-ms that they were the club
to beat in Intercollegiate circles this year.

And then of course there was
Helen Mackie, a drum-majorette.
Western might have the quantity
but Varsity certainly has the qual-
ity. Helen added some new twists,
not to mention curves, to the

backed up by Jim Guthro and the
Blue and White band who had just
appeared before royalty — without

The score was 16-7, for those who

attack that at times verged on ths
'pectacular and air-tight pass de-
fence that the Musangs failed to
even dent until the fourth quarter.
Varsity made defeating the Mus-
tangs look like menial labour for
the first tliree quarters of the game.
E>efensively. the^lue line was mag-
nificent. They effectively bottled
up the Mustang ground attack as
they had done the week before to
tlie Redmen. and then turned right
around to open gaping holes in a
Mustang front wall that was rated
as the best that Westerft had pro-
duced in several seasons.
Unable lo get out of their own
territory in the first quarter, and
already 3 points behind on a field
goal by Jimmy "Sure-Foot" Bell, the
Mustangs got their chance early in
the second stanza when they pick'
ed up a Varsity fumble on tlie Blue
40-yard line. CHara carried twice
: for the Mustangs to bring the ball
to the Varsity 24. Another first
down for the Metrasmen put them
only 16 yards from pay dirt. But
then the Blue line rose to the oc
casion and held the Mustangs to 4
yards on the next two downs,
Western's attempt to get the three
points back with a field goal was
blocked. The Mustangs recovered,
T^ere penalized 25 yards and had
their third down over again. Bud
Obal. who did most of the booting
for the visitors, got away a nice
one that went into touch on the
Varsity 2-yard line.
Aod then the fun began. Bewley
skirted the left end for the Blues
and made 13 yards behind some
beautiful blocking. Again Bewley
out from quarterback Alec Lawsoa
and picked up a first down. Bobby
Dale took over and carried for 9
on his first try. then brought the
crowd to its feel with an exhibitioa
of razzle-dazEle running on an off-
tackle play that was good for 22
yards to the Wester-n 52.
Lawson put in his thinking cap,
and with some beautiful deception
in the Blue backfleld, Al Haig gal-
loped ai-ound the short end lor 35
yards, putting the Blues in scoring
position ou the Western n-yard
line. Then, micorking one of tha
three Blue passes of the game, Law-
soa pitched a perfect strike to end
Hank TamowsM in the end zone for
the major. 108 yards in six playsl
Bell made the convert good and tha
score, Varsity 9, Western 0.
With Varsity dotQinatinf the line
play, the Mustangs took to the air,
tossing 26 passes in all during the
game for a record of U completions.
But with the Blue ends falling bade
on pass defence, 5 of the Mustang
passes were intercepted. Varsity's
Steve Oneschuck accounted lor two
of the interceptions and scored the
second Blue major as a result of
^e first one.
Early in the third quarter, with
the Mustangs in possession on the
centre field stripe, Oneschuck nab-
bed a Henderson pass, ran it into
the clear and 65 yards down tha
field for a touchdown. Jimmy Bell
again kicked the extra point.
Then tempers began to flare and

The SAC Radio Committee will

Rocky Martino, -Grad, will look after

Martino explained that the Com-
mittee had fifteen minutes on

FM is the frequency modulation
station operated by the Ryerson In-
stitute of Technology.
"If the programs are good before
Christanas then we have half an
hour promised on CKFH or CHUM
for the new year," Martino went on,
but stressed the fact that this will
depend upon the response received
on CJRT-FM. He outlined the pro-
grams for the two workshops stat-
ing that those who wanted to do
dramatic work should join one of
the four dramatic clubs on the
campus, as they and the Royal Con-,
servatory Drama group will handle
this part of the v;ork. Tlie dramatic
section of the committee will in-
clude all those who want to act.
write scripts, direct and produce.
"But they have to belong to a dra-
ma club," Martino pointed out.
The Round Table will be handled
by Martino plus a supporting gi-oup
of people. The duties of the Round
Table committee will be to pick
topics for discussion, choose the
speakers (who will be, Martino said,
prominent personalities and stu-
dents) and act in consultation with
members of the staff. Martino de-
clared that most of the work here

"It is my very great privilege to
offer a welcome from the Univer-
sity, from our hearts", the Chan-
cellor said in his welcoming speech.
"We have had the honour of re-
ceiving royalty before, and are hon-
oured that you have found time in
your crowded schedule." The Chan-
cellor assured the royal couple that
their visit would be remembered for
many years to come, and the rich
meaning it held would be cherished.
As Elizabeth rose to answer the
speech, she reminded us very much
of any girl of 25 about to address an
august body of professors, and a
little frightened by the prospect.
She drew a white paper from her
purse, and read, in a soft, musical
voice, her tribute to the University
of Toronto.
"I think that this university has
indeed followed its own motto, 'Vel
ut arbor aevo". for its roots are
deeply and firmly set in the soil of
ceremony, and then the cream of
the university surged forward, rush'
ing to examine the signatures.
It took only three minutes, but the
pageant had given an ample re-
ward for the jpany man-hours
which had gone into its planning.
We could hear the cheers outside as
the procession left Hart House, but
we were far more interested in join-
ing the scramble around the book.
And two neat signatures and the
date were visible souvenu-s of a
glimpse into the realm of kings.

BABY BLUES TRAMPLE WESTERN
Go That Way Bill!
Harry H^de, one member o( a Varsity line that
caused a lot of trouble for the Mustangs last Satur-
day is shown throwing a cross body block on Don
Bealty of the Mustangs to clear the road for Bill
McFarlane of the Blues,
~~lt was this kind of blocking that made the Blue"
running attack Varsity's most potent weapon
against the Mustangs. Barry came «p from the
Intermediates for Saturday's game and turned in a
top performance. McFarlane rolled up a lot of yard-
age for the Blues in just the maner shown above.
Sniunluf/ \ MertMes
The purple and white ogre has
been destroyed. The stranglehold
ot Neanderthal lootbaU squads
from Western in this league's
post-war period has finally been
crushed and the perennial miser-
ies of Bob Masterson, (who was
beginning to think that Varsity
was a grid mentor's graveyard',
have been eased considerably.
To the 23,000 and some odd
denizens who took up positions on
the sunny slopes of Varsity Sta-
dium Saturday afternoon, it was
more than a little obvious that the
Blues were really dedicated to
the Yates Cup mission.
The manner in which the Blues*
line has galvanized Itself Into an
end-to-end hunk of armour-plate
Is, to us at least, one of the more
gratifying aspects of the current
Varsity victory skein. Continu-
ously punctured with injuries, the
men up front, veterans and rookies
alike, have still managed to give
their backfield tremendous sup-
port on offense and come through
In the defensive clutch too.
Freshman Blue. Bruce Jackson,
erstwhile Goliath from East York
Collegiate, made his best showing
of the young season on Saturday.
Jimmy Bell was his hard-hitting

eifective self. Hank Tamowski's
defensive play was notliing short
of immaculate. Jimmy Evans and
Joe Harris were in for tackles
that must have jarred the Mus-
tank ball carriers loose from their
necks.
Brainy Steve Oneschuk, the
one-man radar screen on pass de-
fence, contributed much to the
lassoing, hog-tieing and shoding of
the Mustangs. "Honest" Steve,
as the crowd have good-naturedly
dubbed him, proved to be the
blow-torch of the Varsity back-
field. His gifted running and his
alertness reduced the Western
aerial attack to shembles for the
major portion of the game, much
to the frustration of Western
flinger Murray Henderson.
Half-time capers were lessened
by the failure of the Western band
of drum-maJorettes to make an
appearance on the sun-kist field.
Story was that some of them got
lost in the Royal shuffle. Helen
Mackie the new Varsity twirler
caught on- with the crowd . . .
many of them thought it was
Hilka back out there. The Var-
sity band showed well in a Ha-
waiian War Chant routine that
had the band dotted over the field
in the shape of a swaying palm
tree. Leave us have more of this
stuff in the home-games to come
JWr. Guthro.
Murray Hadlow's rhubarb with
some Mustang players, which
caused his banishment from the
game in the last half, was not the
only high-spirited outburst. Big
Bruce Boa, a Western middle who
was sitting on the bench, got la-
thered up about something and
darted off onto the field in a wild
rage only to be stopped by a
cross-body from teammate Mur-
ray Henderson and a reprimand
frpm Coach Metras.
Coming Down
Int Soccer Blues
Upset Guelph 3-0
Last Friday, the Intermediate
squad of the Soccer Blues opened
the new season with a 3-0 victory
over the O.A.C. intermediates at
Ouelpli.
Play was brisk from the opening
whistle with the Baby Blues carry-
ing the play into the OA.C.'s end.
Time after time the Varsity squad
pressed goalward and were finally
awarded their first goal from the
foot of their fleet outside-right Al
Bowler. Within minutes of his
first effort this promising right
footer got his second counter,
cross from the right wing which
.was deflected into the net by one
of the defending backs. The third
and final tally came late in the
first lialf with Matt Derzai picking
the right hand comer of the twine
from a pile-up of players in front
of the goal.
The second half saw the 'Aggies'
press hard but were stopped at each
play by the stalwart defense of the
visiting Blues.
Tlie junior addition of the Blues
show definite promise from this,
their first game. Stand-outs on the
tea mwere AI Bowler at outside
right. Don Rope, who played a solid
game at centre-half, and Ted Ker-
sey and Doug Quirk who made up
the brick wall defense line.
The line-up: Anderson, Kerbey.
Quirk McKinley, Rope, Rundle,
Bowler. Derzai, Staiiiton, Ashburn.

Game Statistics
Fumbles Trouble Colts
As Intermeds Win 14-
In First League Battle
A strong line and a fumble happy
Western backfield combined to
give the Baby Blues an important
H-7 victory in their first game at
London last Fi'iday. The Interme-
diate Blues built up an 8-0 lead in
the fii'st half and finished off the
scoring in the last seconds of the
game when Terry Housley scored
a major on a quick opener from
the Colts' 6 yard line.
It was the old story of the team
with the stronger line having the
edge as the Blues blocked three
Western kicks in the first half and
another in the second. The West-
ern backfield just couldn't hold on
to the ball. They reached Blue
territory only once in the first half
and were stopped then by two suc-
cessive fumbles.
Colt Terry Sumner was the goat,
two of his fumbles resulting in
Blue scores. On the first, Ted Lan-
sky fell on it at the Western 22 and
after the Blues failed to advance
the ball on two downs, Bill Burley
Sportswoman
Trinity field at 1 o'clock means
Women's Softball these fine free
days. On Friday games were
scheduled between PHE n's and
St. Mike's and Vic I's and US I's.
PHE n's defaulted to the "doub-
le blue" leaving a clear field for
the Vic-UC match.
UC scored heavily on the pitch-
er, tallying nine points in the first
three Innings of play. Sparked by
a home run from the bat of Marg
Rosewarne. the Vic nine struggled
to -boost their coimt. However
the shrewd pitching of Marg
Craw held the Vic girls in check.
Pinal score 9 to 2 for UC.
I kicked a single point. A while later,
Sumner dropped a Burley punt on
the Western one yard line and it
was recovered by Roy McMurtry.
I Two plays later, Doug Geekie took
I the ball over on a quarterback
sneak and then moved back to
convert his own major.
The Blues ' continned to over-
shadow the .Western squad in the
second quarter. About half way
through, Al George broke through
the Western line and blocked
Wayne Bums' kick. The ball bound-
ed back into the end zone and
Burns managed to pick it up but
was tackled by George to complete
the scoring in the first half.
In the second half the Colts
finally came to life, and again it
was a fumble which resulted in
the score.' Western's Don Prowse
picked up Fawcetfs fumble on the
Colts' 49. Western then marched
down the field for a well deserved
touchdown. Bill Swan took a pitch-
out from quarterback Andy Mas-
lak and galloped to the Toronto 36.
Then the Colts took it over on a
razzle dazzle play. Schomburg made
a sensational leaping catch of
Getty's pass on the five - an<?
lateralled to Maslak who went over
standing up.
The Western scoring was fin-
ished when Inside Stan Mclntee
knocked the ball from Burley's
hands and recovered it. The Colts
were forced to kick on their third
down and Pawcett was rouged by
Swan.
In the dying minutes of the game
the Blues staged a great fifty yard
touchdown march, the highhght
being a 20 yard Fitzhenry to Smith
pass. Geekie and Pitzhenry com-
bined to complete 8 out of 14 passes
for the Blues. Housley and Pawcett
did most of the ball carrying for
Toronto and handled the job welL'

Cop Second Spot
At Guelph Meet
Al was Qot Gold for Blue and
White representatiflfes over the past
weekend. While the Senior Foot-
ball Blues were knocking over the
opposition, their sisters on the
Varsity -Women's Archery team
didn't fare so well in Intercolle-
giate competition held" at Guelph
on Saturday. As usual in Women's
Archery, the Blue and White from
Toronto placed second out of the
six colleges, losing out to the per-
ennial champs, the Guelph Aggies
of OAC.
The Aggies compiled a score of
exactly 1600 pohits in winning the
Championship, while the Varsity
Squad amassed a total of 1252. Tlie
Varsity total came just one year
late however, as this would have
been good enough to take the
Championship last year. Queen's
Western. McGIll and McMaster
completed the lineup in the runner-
up positions, with Queen's amassing
1174 points to place third.
Jean Stackle of OAC copped the
individual scoring honors of the
Contest, shooting 474. Mary Mac-
donald led the Varsity scorers and
was second in the individual scor-
ing list, shooting 404, along with
Catherine Pringle, also of Guelph.
and then to go on and build up
their three goal margin.
At the start of the game the
Blues' defence was a little uncer-
tain, and before they had settled
down the Aggies' centre-forward
Luisey broke through and slid the
ball past the Blues' goalkeepex to
go ahead 1-0, The Varfity forward
line then started to click, and it
was not long before Ken Jessop
shot the equalizer from a pass by
ivfanuel Atucha on the left wing-.
The Aggies started to press again,
and were awarded a free kick well
outside the Varsity penalty area.
Their left half back, Anderson, sent
a high looping shot towards the
goal that Bibby Lane, the Blues-
goalkeeper faUed to see properly,
and the ball grazed the upright to
skip into the net to put the Aggies
m front 2-1,
The Blues quickly tied It up when
Atucha again broke loose on the
jfft wing, and sent a pass to Bobby
Hoss on the right wing who banged
It into the net pronto. One of the
O.A-C.'s players was injured on the
play, but despite the Aggies' pro-
tests, the score was allowed, and
again the game was tied at 2-2,
This seemed to spark the Blue*
forward line, as they began to run
circles around the O.A.C. defence,
and Bob Antoni. and Ken Jessop
combined to produce the Third Var-
sity goal. Again the Blues reckoned
without Luisey, Guelph's starry
centre forward, who once more
broke loose, and tied the score at
The second half was a differene
story, except for a few seconds at
the beginning, when Luisey put the
Aggies In the lead again on an-
other break through 4-3, Then the
steady Varsity pressure began to
tell, as Bob Antoni scored two in
a row to put the Blues in the lead.
The Aggies' defence apart, as Bobby
Ross added two more, and Bob An-
toni ended the scoring with a nice
header Into tbe net.

NO HIGHWAY IN THE SKY is not a world-
beater, and it Is overshadowed by the excellence
of SEfVEN DAYS. But It Is a .<!atisrymg film.
An Anglo-American work, Holiywoodlans James
Stewart, Marlene Dietrich and director Henry
Koster head the 20 th- Century -Pox production
which was made in Britain. But the American
stars are given solidity by the stout support of
natives Glynls Johns, Jack Hawkins and many
other familiar faces. It is this British help which
gives NO HIGHWAY IN THE SKY a roundedness
Hollywood pr(*ably could not have achieved.
James Stewart is an ivory-tower scientist in a
research laboratory of an airline. He figines that
the alloy used in the newest aircraft in operation
can take Just so much vibration; after a certain
number of flying hours, the tail will disintegrate.
To prove his thesis, he is sent to investigate a
crash of one of the planes in question. He finds
himself flying across the Atlantic in another liner
of the same type which is in the danger zone ot
flying time.
As an absent-minded man whose life is consumed
by his work and leaves no time for the human eide
(familiar stereotype this), Stewart does a good job.
Dietrich has very little to do with what goes on,
but adds a real sizzle of the old-tyme Glamour
that Time magazine was in mourning about
recently.
There hasn't been much bAllyhoo about NO
HIGHWAY IN THE SKY, and 1 wonder if the
quiet advertising by the Hyland Tlieatre is not
keeping away many customers who would thor-
oughly enjoy the film.
While SEVEN DAYS TO NOON can be recom-
mended without reservation. Shea's regular organ-
ist, Al Bollington, is something else again. (In
fairness to Mr. Bollington, 1 should say I have
never been enthusiastic about his playing.) But
after the harrowing suspense of the feature, we are
in the mood for something soothing. Instead we
get the Bollington bombast in a medley of British
tunes. An organ can shake the theatre walls, and
Mr. Bolhngton can't seem to forget that. I am
sorry." but I got a headache.
After some thin bill-of-fare like the standard
Warner Brothers musical, Mr. Bollington, some
heavy boss and loud clangings of something or the
other would be just fine. But not after a couple
of hours of suspense, please. Much better a sing-
song with slides.

MUSIC REVIEW
Guiomar IVovaes
Toronto's musical season opened
on Thursday evening with a recital
by Brazilian pianist Guiomar
Novaes, Mme. Novaes Is not as
well-known here as elsewhere; it
is therefore not surprising that
her program consisted mainly of
reliable classics. The first part
of the concert included the Chro-
matic Fantasia and Fugue, and
the Capriccio on the Departure of
a Brother, by Bach, the sonata
'Les Adieux" by Beethoven, and
the sonata in B minor (opus 58)
by Chopin. To conclude, Mme.
Novaes played a group of modem
Brazilian compositions.
Mme. Novaes gives the impres-
sion Of vast reserves of force in
her playing. She plays louder
passages with a relaxed, easily
sustained mez2o-forte. and only
very seldom calls on the full dyna-
mic resources of the instrument,
As a result, her playing has an
intimacy and warmth seldom
heard on the concert platform.
Her climaxes are subtly arrang-
ed, and often reached more by
rhythmical than by dynamical
changes. This sort of treatment
suited the Beethover better than
the Chopin, but was most strl^
ingly successful In the contem-
porary Brazilian group. This con-
sisted of a number of short de-
scriptive pieces by Pinto and Vil-
la-Lobos. which would have suf-
fered from a rougher approach.
Mme Novaes' playing is not of
the rabble-rousing sort that packs
Massey Hall, but it gives a quieter
kind of satisfaction in the more in-
timate atmosphere of Eaton Audi-
torium. Toronto will do well It
all the concerts of the coming
season arc as enjoyable as thla
Chris Helleiner. aao

Con-
fession
— Coffoon by Hugh Niblock.
Last Wednesday night ft sinister, shad-
owy form stole across the campus. Slowly
nnd with extreme caution It approached
the "Island" in front of Hart House.
Who was it? Someone furtively escap-
ing from a secret love tryst behind the
Medical BuOding? Was it someone arriv-
ing early, in order to make sure of a good
viewimint of the Princess? Or was it
Sidney Eenith looking for a place to bury
the money from the new Dominion
(Massey Commission) grants.
No, it was none of these. It was me —
yes. me. And now. sobbing with emotion,
I am ready to write my confession. . . .
Yes, I am the one who broke into the
University Bookstore. I couldn't help my-
self, an inner compulsion drove me to
that ugly little buiJdmg — I had to get
inside! ! !
Quietly and deftly I cased the situation.
This would have to 'be a fast job. I man-
aged to pick the locks of both main
entrances, but was unable to get through
the turnstiles and so was foiled.
I decided to try the back way. My
entrance here was easily accomplished.
T merely tui'ned around one of the ol^m
cannons to the west of the building and I
loading it with shot (made up of hor^
apples bought in Hart House), I blasts™
out a gaping hole in the rear of thai
building. I

the Store and quickly made ray way to I
the object of my desire. It is strange how I
in periods of great emotional strain, one I
will notice things that never caught the I
eye before. For the first time in this I
building I noticed there were books 1
ai-ound. And while I questioned their |
existence they questioned mine.
But back to the plot. With great speetj I
and cunning I passed through the great I
maze of machines and at last with a few I
single operations had my hands on the |
object of my desire. Gurgling with fiend. 1
ish laughter I slipped out of the store as I
quietly as I had come in, patted my trusty I
cannon and sped from the campus. I
But honest, fellas, T didn't steal auy I
money — I was just dying to get some f
cigarettes. 1

The Visit
Not For Knowledge
Under a glare of pul>licity that has seldom been equalled
in this country, Canada continues to welcome the Royal
couple. Imagination, primed-by an almost over-zealous press,
has taken over the reins, and for the next month no move
that Elizabeth and Phihp make will miss the attention of a
fascinated public.
When the Princess and her handsome husband arrived
at The University of Toronto on Saturday morning, the
first thing that struck observer.? was the all too obvious
fact that this young woman seemed to be worn out.
This was to have been a holiday trip. Its keynote was
to have been informality. Whether these ideas have remain-
ed uppermcst in the minds of those who have planned the
ti-ip seems open to serious question. Press reports from
Ottawa mdicated that many of the ordinary people, whom
the Prmcess expressed a special desire to meet, felt that
in some vague kind of way they were being left out of
thmgs.
Here in Toronto they certainly saw the people, the vast
crowds who gathered to watch them as they moved along the
otticial routes. And the people saw them.
Yet somehow it doesn't seem quite right. And the
clincher was the often repeated remark about how tired
fclizabeth looked. It was so obvious that it even managed to
make a headlme m the downtown press.
The response to the visit has been tremendous. In dif-
ficult times we tend to regard symbols of stability and
inte,e«rS *, " Crown represents with an intensity and
Bvmho sf n^ fi, ^^^"iption. And when such
«s^hnlp w ""k ^-^P''"'.? Personalities as impressive

Province, is by One of Canada's Outstanding Humorists.
Nichol. Who Got His Start on The University of British-
Columbia's Undergratudate Paper. The Ubyssey, Has
Published Several Volumes, Including "Sense and Non-
sense", and "The Roving I".
Lectures began recently for 5,500 students at
TJBC, including 1,100 freshmen who walked into
the wrong rooms.
The first couple of days of lectures have their
own special charm. Tlie complicated machinery of
registration rumbles to a stop, and there you ore
sitting beside this guy with the teeth. Or, if you're
lucky beside the girl with the sweater. You are
never lucky.
The Crisp autumn air is fUled with the thin
whistle of big frogs from little ponds all over the
province, as they deflate in this strange, vast lake
For the first few days all the frc^s are equal, the
dumb frogs bright as the smart frc^s. the ugly
frogs thinking themselves mirrored in the hand-
some frogs.
These are the days of introduction to the new
courses, new^ horizons. Wafted on a beckoning
finger of bad smells, the scienceman enters his
chosen career of making the worst smell ever.
The pretty girls will be taking psychology, the
plain girls home economics.
In the pharmacy building future phamiacists are
preparing to take drugs, and in the theological
college divinity students plan to take up the Devil,
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Already the cafeteria is burbhng with convivial
knots of future lawyers and industrial executives,
while alone in the botanical gardens, grazing sadly
on his sandwiches, a future poet is seeing symbols
in the compost.
Over hi the fine new memorial gym, the athletes
are eyeing each other's muscles speculatively, each
confident of having a brain to boot and sure that
the big hulk with the pin head couldn't have got
into the university without a shoehorn.
The campus is alive and young again with all of
ihem. There is the suspenseful buzz of the class as
it waits for the fhst appearance of the professor,
the front seats umpopular and occupied only by a
smattering of the near-sighted, the shy and timid
on the nanks, the back row solid with sceptics.
A dramatic moment, when the professor enters
the classroom for the first time. The sudden sUence.
He walks to the lectern, if he steps on a piece ot
By ERIC NICOL
chalk now he's cooked. He doesn't. The class is
sizing him up, taking him in through its very
pores. Prince or rat? Pill or push-over? A whole
year of this guy.
The professor savors the silence to the full. He
will never get it again, quite, for the rest of tha
year. As soon as he opens his mouth the class will
start discovering his weakness: h^s human. He
knows his subject, but his nose twitches when he
talks. He's a sucker for an irrelevant question. He
thinks he's funny, ha, ha, ha. And thus this
doctor of philosophy or science, this mighty cere-
brum, this scholar whose name has a noble retinue
of letters of the alphabet, comes to be known to
all but himself as "Old Beaky" or "Droopy
Drawers."
The prftfessor will impress the freshmen for
slightly lon^ev. Freshmen are ready to be^mpressed
by anybody who knows for sure which side is up.
Their sophistication ends at knowing the course
to the washroom.
Sophomores, of course, know everything. The
remaining three years of their course are merely a
formality. Having been in the university library
once, they know how to take out a book, in case
they should want to read one in later life. Ask
them anything.
Juniors, and especially seniors, have become
aware of curious chinks in their omniscience which
widen right up to the moment of graduation. While
in the coffee shop, never again to be impressed by
anything, lounges the post-graduate student. Gen-
erally speaking the difference between a post- ■
graduate student and a freshman is that the postWj
graduate student knows he's ignorant. After th/'^'^^
all he needs is a briefcase and he's ready to teach.
Some of the folks frown on these first days of
university initiation, evidently thinking that these
young people should munch their education as
stolidly as cattle. The university represents not
only the sum of human knowledge but indirectly
the much larger sum of human ignorance. The
kids that started lectures yesterday have to take
a running jump into the large unknown. Let's give
them a Mttle room. here, seeing as we're just
watching.

Sartorial Anarchy
Editor, The Varsity:
Provocative articles such as
your editorial, of Thursday on
Hart House dress promote a
healthy mental state on the uni-
versity. ^
.However the ushig ot vague
terminology and fake statements
do not aid in the development ot
a right mental attitude towards
the problem of dress.
May I point out to you that
the Standai-d of Dress Rule is
not '■the latest edict of the Board
of Stewards". The rule has been
in effect for at least 20 years and
with the change la Warden the
Rule was not carried out to the
last letter.
The need for a campaign to
remind the students has arisen
out of the sartorial anarchy of
certain individuals eating In the
Great Hall during the last two
years. The campaign was aimed
at centering the Freshman's at-
tention upon a more mature
standard of behavior at the uni-
versity as compared with high
school.
You asked for the Board to
£how leadership. This I believe
was done last year when com-
mittee members eating at the
head table were ordered to wear
a jacket and tie — However there
has been NO EDICT ORDERING
MEMBERS TO WEAR JACKET
AND TIE. Tlie Board has just
given more Hght to its long stand-
ing REQUEST askmg that mem-
bers dress in conformity with the
dignity of the House. The vast
degree of discussion about jacket
and tie has arisen, I believe,
from conscience as to what the
dignity of the House deserves.
I believe, as I think you do,
Mr. Editor, that such a structure
and tradition as Hart House does
arouse a certain amount of spon-
taneous respect. The Board has
been merely reminding members
along what lines this respect caibj
be shown, if the Individual dosaj
not wish to show his respect, thefl^
the problem is the individual'^
and not the Board's.
It is pleasing to observe that
our modest campaign directed
mahily at the Freshmen has
brought about a considerable im-
provement ha the dresa of our
members.

inadequate for the heating requirements of the

expected with the installation of the new heating
plant. Eventually electrical power for the entire
University will be delivered to the new plant from
which it will be distributed.
Bachelorliood OK
Says Si. Hilda'' IS
Men still have a chance to re-
main bachelors.
Last night the St. Hilda's Col-
lege Literary institute defeated by
a vote of 84-25 the resolution that
"Men should be compelled to marry
at the age of 25",
Miss Maclean (Grad). speaking
for the affirmative, stated that the
greatest good for the greatest num-
ber prevails in a fully married so-
ciety. She painted a glowing future
for Canada due to increased popu-
lation resulting from compulsory
marriages. "More marriages will
produce more children, who will
require more clothes and food, and
the manufacturers and farmers will
profit," she stated. Women would
no longer need to concentrate on
catching a man, but could spend
their energies on raising a family.
Christie Russell, IV, considered
that men were not mature enough
for marriage at 25, though she
doubted that they ever really grew
up, "There are some men whom no
woman should be forced to marry."
She stated that women would lose
immeasureably under the proposed
system; career girls, beautiful sec-
retaries and chorus lines would be-
come things ot the past, and the
romance of life would be destroyed.
Miss Russell questioned the ad-
visability of increasing the popula-
tion since high schools in North
York were already so overcrowded.
Miss Osier (Grad), stated that
compulsion was not necessary, since
most men were very susceptible to
marriage at the stated age. She
portrayed the happily married man
at the height of his powers and his
adaptability to curlers and diapers.
■At 25 man has come through the
valley of romance and is ready for
the happily ever after." she said,
Lorna McDougall, II, sketched th»
horrors of a black market in choice
quality wives, a shortage of wedding
rings and a state control of mar-
riage. Conscientious objectors
against marriage would soon fill
our Canadian north woods. Taxes
would increase to pay for increased
baby bonuses, housing develop-
ments and dependents' allowances.
Her final point brought many
members across the floor to the
side of the opposition. "We don't
want marriage-conscious men," she
said. "If they were thinking along
the same lines as we are, all the
fun would be gone."

able to destroy the myths surround-
ing the royal game.
It is not true and never has been
true that chess Is just for old men.
There is a story about a man with
a long beard which used to over-
lap onto the board while he played
his games. Through the use of
lightning manoeuvres with pieces
hidden behind the underbrush, he
developed what is now known as
the ambush attack. Tills tale does
not indicate that older men have
a superior grasp of strategy.
reaUty, young men of all countries
make up a large proportion of the
best players.
Another fallacy must be
squelched. Anyone who believes that
a great deal of thought goes into
every chess game has just never
been In the Hart House Chess Club
at noon-hoiir. Not only is deep
thinking unknown during that
period, but it is also impossible. A
certain degree of noise makes con-
centration difficult.
There are those who will say that
chess takes a long time to play.
They will point to' the case of the
man who sat at the board for
three days before his opopnent dis-
covered he was dead. That is simply
propaganda. Most games in Hart
House are played in less than halt
an hour. The odd game may take
six or seven hours, but one must
simply take a dull lecture In order
to receive the sam impression of
passing time.
Now we come to the cowardly ac-
cusation that chess is, after all,
Just a *dull game. However those
Individuals resorting to this tricic-
ery in order to cover up their
inability to understand the game,
■will be happy to know that krieg-
spiel has been invented to add
variety to tlie normal method of
playing. In krlegsplel, the players
sit back to back with their own
boards, andare never told what each
other's moves are. There Is a referee,
keeping tlie position as it really is,
who only announces what pieces
are taken off and what pawn cap-
tures are possible. Blind decisions,
however, do not occupy as impor-
tant a position In regular chess.
On the whole, then, chess is not
quite what most people Imagine It
to be.
The response to
the R.C.A.P. has
been excellent, Plight-Lieutenant
Hewer stated. But, further appli-
cations will be considered.
This year a more Interesting and
practical programme than last
year's is planned for the whiter.

Open 1951-52 Political Season
The first full scale meeting of a
University political club this sea-
son will be that ot the University
ot Toronto Liberals tonight in the
Junior Common Room of Uni-
versity College. Tonight's meet-
ing will be in thhe form of an or-
ganization meeting and will consist
of Movies and controversial dis-
cussions, starting at 8.00 p.m.
John Medcof, President of the
University Liberal Club wiU lead
off the meeting with an intensive
outline of the year's Liberal pro-
grom. He will outline the part ot
the Liberals in the coming Cam-
pus election and in the Mock Par-
liaments coming after it.
Movies from the National Film
Board wiU be featured as relief
from the more serious discussions.
These will include 'The St. Laur-
ent Story', 'The United Nations

utes.
The highlight of the evcntog will
be the pro and con discussions ot
Price Controls VS Credit Controls
which will be led by John Medcof,
m UC. and Ralph Sceane, III
Vic. Said Medcof, in commenting
on the issue; ^
"There is no Question as the
whether controls are needed, it
is rather, a question of what kind
ot controls are needed. The cost
of living has continued to rise,
and as a result we must have re-
strictions ot some kind. Unless
credit controls work, we will have
to resort to a system ot controls
such as we had during the war
Considering the othe point ot
view. Ralph Sceane pointed out
that if we are going to have any
price controls, we must have com-
plete control and rationing to make
it work. ^
'Since their Installation might
endure for at least 10 years, the
competitive bushiess mind would
disappear, and free enterprise
would suffer a mortal blow."

Reports On AVA& Brief By Lazure
To Highlight Annual ISS Conference
Reports on AU-Varsity Aid as ing last year, to become the World
" University Service?
Reports will be read on the sam-
Inar lield in Quebec this summer
and its conclusions, as well as the
scholarship service which has al-
lowed some 48 foreign students to
study in Canada during the past
three years. A summary of ex-
change work between North
American universities will also be
given.
ISS is the current name for the
Canadian section of the World
University Service, last year re-
named internationally due to con-
fusion with the Communistrspon
sored International Union of Stu-
dents (rus).
ISS-WUS sponsors non-partisan
relief work on an international
scale, both by aiding local pro-
grams (such as Varsity AVA of
last year) and by relief work of
their own.
Among the activities are: schol-
arships for foreign and refugee
students to Canadian universities,
planning international visits such
as that of the Finnish engineers
here last year and the visit of To-
ronto men to Finland during the
handled by the International Stu-
dent Service and a brief by Dennis
Lazure (U of M) will highlight the
annual conference of ISS to be
held this weekend at McMaster
University.
Delegates to the conference from
almost every Canadian university
will also give their own regional
reports, and hear exclusive re-
ports and the past year's activi-
ties. During the period from Fri-
day afternoon to Sunday evening
they will also plot with their votes
the path that this organization is
to follow during the next year.
Reports will be read on tjie sem-

Vic Spansars Contest
Ta Find Modern MS&b
Victoria College is sponsoring
a contest to find a modern coun-
terpart of Bob, the janitor who
originated the idea of the Vic Bob.
Bob was janitor at Victoria
College 79 years ago, when the
college was still on The Old On-
tario Strand. Since then his mod-
est entertainment for the fresh-
men has grown until this year it
will be a full-scale stage presenta-
tion, known as the Bob Revue.
The contest is open to all mem-
bers enrolled in Victoria College
who bear the name Bob. But con-
test officials add that If your
great-uncle now deceased ever
called you Bob, you're eligible.
All the entrants will have to
dress in a manner which typifies
the typical Vic Bob. The winner
will chosen on the basis of per-
sonal originality. Bob officials
stress that entrants must incur no
expenses for this contest.
Applications for the contest
must be turned In to the VCU Of-
fice before 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 19.
Judging will be at Alumni Hall in
Vic on Wednesday, Oct. 24 at one
o'clock.
Prom her window on the second
floor o£ Whitney Hall, overlooking
the U.C. Quadrangle a U.C. Freshie

u not her first year at a university,
however, for this particular Freshie
has already completed one year at
the University of Vienna in Austria,
Elizabeth Kupelwleser is in To-
ronto for one year on a Rotary
Club Fellowship, studying Maths,
Physics and Chemistry. Though she
coud have chosen any university
m any foreign country in the world,
PUzabeth, a petite brown-haired
iiaulein with sparkling hazel eyes,
explains in her delightful accent,
I have heard a lot about Toronto,
ind wanted to come to Canada."
Elizabeth is from Salzburg,
Austria, where her parent and two
iisters are still hving. She was
studying chemistry at the University
of Vienna, where her application to
the Rotary Club was made, and ac-
cepted. Not only is she the only stu-
dent on a Rotary Fellowship from
Austria, but she is also the first
person in Austria to ever win one.
These scholarships were started in
1947, and since that time have sent
approximately three-hundred stu-
dents from all countries to uni-
versities in other countries. They
cover complete tuition, cost of living.

travelling, and incidental expenses
for a full year, with the purpose of
bringing back to the student's or-
iginal country a fuller understand-
ing of a foreign land and way of
Ufe.
In Vienna one can choose subjects
more freely than in Toronto, since
there are no prescribed courses. la
the sciences, wliich are Elizabeth's
strong point, there are a certain
number of labs which must be at-
tended, and problems which must
be handed in, before the exams for
a degree may be written. It is not
compulsory to attend classes, or
even to try examinations at the end
of each year. If one wants to try
them, they are oral, not written. The
system is more like the American,
in that the time is counted in se-
mesters, or two tenns per year.
Elizabeth will enter her fifth se-
mester when she returns, and will
have to complete eight or ten se-
mesters for her degree. After gradu-
ation she intends to go into physics
re.searcli on the formidable subject,
"Physical Apparatus for Medical
treatment".
Elizabeth is interested in skiing,
music, and the theatre, as well as
physics. The Rotary Club has given
her an extra £200 for travelling in
Canada, and she intends to take a
Ions trip in May after the examin-
ations. She has noticed that the
people in Toronto have more money
and dress better than the people
in Vienna, where the cost of living
is very high compared to the
salaries.

Manj McGill Failures
Bring Drastic Action
Montreal (CUP) — Furthering
its efforts to reduce the high per-
centage of academic failures among
McOill students, particularly fresh-
men, the Student Executive Coun-
cil has decided to organize a cul-
tural committee that is to organize
the cultural activities on the cam-
pus and supplement the academic
work of the students. It also de-
cided to cut the number of issues
of The McGill Daily, student under-
graduate paper, from five to four
s week next term.
A decision to sponsor a "No Ac-
tivities Week" in which the student
nnion will be closed for all ac-
tivities was adopted at the last
council meeting, as tJie first part
of the programme. It will occur at
the end of the football season and.
it Is hoped, will give the students
and opportunity to concentrate on
their studies after the excitement
of the football season is over.
The duties of the cultural com-
mittee are to include arranging
non-t«chnical addresses by guest
speakers on such subjects as art,
literature, music, politics and in-
ternational affairs with the idea of
"whetting the intellectual appe-
tites of students not directly con-
nected with the topic." It will also
seek to arrange art shows, music
soloist and theatre performances on
the campus.

Capt. Kidds
Buried Hoard
Montreal, Oct. 12 (CUP)— An ad-
venture-seeking former McGill
student and a Toronto boy, Ian
Rogers, will set out this month in
search of Captain Kidd's buried
treasure in the South China Seas
Accompanied by twelve other
adventurers, the lads will attempt
to locate the sunken ship "La-
marna," then owned by a Greek
sea captain. Parchment maps
thought to have been smuggled out
by Capt. Kidd just before his ex-
ecution will be used in the search,
Capt. WiUiam Kidd, born in
1645. was commissioned by the
British Government to light pi-
rates, but was alleged to have
gone Into the business himself. He
was executed in May 1701,
Experts at the British Museum
in London say the maps look like
reasonable facsimiles of ones
that might have been used when
Kidd was alive nearly three cen-
turies ago.

BEES
Science ^otes
B; JIM ANDERSON
To the bumble bee I feel inferior.
For he has a stJng on his posterior.
Ogden Nasih.
And that isn't all. The honey bee, which Is a
member of the order Hymenoptera, has long been
a somx:e of amazement to man, prmcipaUy be-
cause of its high level of social organization.
Further studv has also demonstrated its extremely
well developed senses of taste, smell, vision, and
direction. Recent experiments on its methods of
communication have shown that bees are able to
communicate essential information to each other
by means of an elaborate 'ianguage."
Roland Young's moving poem on the flea could
not reallv apply to the bee as it does here:
And fcere's to the happy bounding bee.
You cannot tell the he from she.
The sexes look alike you see;
But she can tell ajid so can he.
The queen is the only functional female In the
hive. She is a rather large nasty looking individ-
ual whose every waking moment is devoted to the
laying of eggs. In this role, she is the mother of
every bee in the colonv. (Think of the staggering
size of her baby bonuses!) After the eggs are laid,
she assumes no further responsibiiity for them
(Institute of Child Study please note) and they
are abandoned to the care of the workers.
These workers are undeveloped females nxun-
bering from ten to sixty thousand in a hive who
perform all the necessary labor including the
gathering of food. They possess an apparatus for
the removal of nectar from flowers, a honey
stomach resembling a bird's crop for storage and
chemical action, a pollen basket on their hind
legs, and glands for the secretion of wax. While
the bee is in the larval form it is first fed "bee
jelly", a predigested food from the workers' stom-
achs, (ugh!) Later, they feed it upon "bee bread",
a mixture of pollen and honey. The fate of the
embryo bee depends on its diet, for if the larva
is fed only the jelly, it will develop into a new
queen.
The male, or drone, lives a happy life devoid of
work. Herein lies a moral. His life span covers a
whole season; the worker lives but six weeks.
W^ien a colony wishes to divide, preparations
are made for a new queen. When she has develop-
ed, her first thought is to massacre any cells con-
taining a growing queen. This accomplished, she
leads a swarm to their new home. The new queen
mates with a drone who dies within a few minutes.
EN'ery occupation has its hazards.
While gathering their rood from flowers, bees
perform the essential task of cross pollination.
Their systematic visiting of one kiVid of flower
makes this possible, for pollen from one type of
plant will not pollinate another type. The bee is
guided to a specific flower by its sense of vision
and smell. Their range of color vision is shifted to
the shorter wave length end of the spectrum and
they are able to recognize four colors: yellow, blue-
green, blue, and ultraviolet. They are thus color
blind to the longer wave length red light. Be-
cause of this, red flowers must be pollinated by
butterflies or birds.
Their special sense organs for smell are situated
on the terminal eight segments of their antennae.
These specialized structures consist of nerve en(i,
ings covered by a thin layer of cells which the
molecules of odorous material are ^le to pene- I
trate. The presence on the moveable antenna of
touch as well as smell end organs results in a co-i""^
operation of these two senses. The bee thm j
"smells'" the shape of objects. This two sense com,
bination is similar to our use of the senses of vis-
ion and touch to form our impressions of the ex-
ternal world.
Perhaps the most Int^eresting aspect of the con-
duct of bees is their ability bo communicate with
each other. Their "language" has been studied to
learn how they are able to inform each other con-
cerning the location of food sites. When a worker |
has^ discovered a rich source of nectar near the
hive, he returns and performs what has been call-
ed a dance of alternating circles to the right and
left. Other workers gather about him and by
means of their antennae detect the odor which
still clings to its body. Th'ey then set out and seek
the source of the odor in the vicinity of the hive.
If the food source Is located at a distance greater
than one hundred yards ^rom the colony, a more
elaborate dance is done. It consists of two parts;
a short straigiht movement accompanied by wag-
ging of the abdomen, and a second set of alter-
nating circles. Careful study has Shown that the
distance of the food source is communicated by
the frequency of the circling movements. Tl^p
number of cycles per minute decreases as the
distance of the goal increases. This calculation
made by the bee includes not only cross country
distance, but also any variations in effort needed
to surmount obsEacles such as trees, ridges, and
head winds. The direction of the food source is
imparted to the other workers through the direc-
tion of the straight portion of the dance. When
the hive surface is horizontal, this first move-
ment is in the same direction as that of the feed-
ing site. When the hive surface is vertical, this
information is given in a soul shakingly math- ,
ematical manner. The bee performs the straight
portion of the dance at the same angle to the i>er- I
pendieular plane as the angle of the flight is to
' the sun in a horizontal plane. Their orientatjos \
is achieved through their compound eye which
acts as an analyzer of the partly polarized light
from the blue sky.
It is almost incredible to think of a bee rushing
into its hive shouting "Gather around girls! There
is a luscious patch of cyclamen lour hundred
and fifty yards from here at a bearing of 50 de-
grees."
In spile of all their intelligence, the bee is dis-
cussed principally for its sting. Workers possess a
straight needle-like weapon which they use as
protection against insects, birds, and me. The
dreadful torment experienced is due to backward
pointing stiff barbs on the stinger, and the in-
jection of a poisonous substance. Anyone who has
had a misunderstanding with a bee can sympa-
thize with Archie the cockroach who wrote on Don
Marquis' typewriter the following lament:
the honey bee is sad and cross
and wicked as a weasel
and when she perches on you boes
she leaves a little measle.

You can see that not only is the history of
Yoknapatawpha County recounted but the past
looms in vigorous segments of American growth.
The past is important to the novel, and in the
story told in the three-act play form. Temple Drake
(the mistreated heroine of Sanctuary) finds her
past overwhelms her. and only her complete sub-
mission to the punishment from her new-found
feeling of social responsibility can lift her out of
her void.
The Nun is Nancy Mannigoe. nurse ot Temple
(Drake) Stephens' children, woman of a sordid
past, and murderess of the younger Stephens chUd.
The story examines how this has all come about
and shows the tragic inevitability of the past over-
whelming the Stephens family of the present.
The device of the play-novel is interesting as an
experiment. But it jars when the new Temple
Brake, who in Sanctuary was a mechanical animal
to whom things kept on happening, demonstrates
not onJy a new responsibility but an erudition in
her speech which doesn't fit. Perhaps this is not a
valid literary criticsm, but then should Requiem
be judged for itself only or as part of the Yokna-
patawpha series?
Reqnlem For A Nun is an interesting book, but
It is not hard to put down. I only hope they never

No Stop Lights
For Williams
The Autobiography of William
Carlos Williams published by Ran-
lom House, 1951. 394 pages. 55.00.
Although Dr. Williams does not
compose poetry while stop lights
ire changing like his fellow
ihysician-poet, Merrill Moore, he
lan certainly match him for the
ionslstency with which he has
nanaged to bang out poetry during
busy professional career.
Determined early in life to write

decided that the world was not well
lost for Art's sake and took up
Tiedicine to protect himself against
garrets and lice. "I would not 'die

is interesting to note that Williams
expresses the same disappoinlment
in T S. Eliot that is described by
Malcolm Cowley in his excellent
book on the Twenties, "Exiles Re-
turn". American artists seem to
have felt that Eliot betrayed them
not only by rejecting American
civilization, but by doing so in such
an academic style. "Critically
Eliot returned us to the classroom

that we were on the point of an

writes, and we are caught in the

Atheism,
Free Love,
Communism
In the last five hundred years we have developed a curiously
literary conception ot what constitutes a man's lite. It is natural that
this should be so. Man's lite is a mystery,. . . a mystery that no
philosopher wUl face, unless the existentialists may recently be thought
to have faced it. Philosophers take sides. Either a man's lite is con-
tinuous and coherent, obedient to a single principle throughout,
originating in a known cause and proceeding to a known destination.
Or it is accidental and chaotic, and any apparent principle is no less
so. Those are the two songs that philosophy sings. Theology smgs the
former and common sense hesitates between the two. It is the natural
tendency ot lyrical poetry alon^ to sing the fragmentary song alone.
The mind functions in categories and would like to believe Ihem real.
And the literary forms ot biography, drama and fiction implanent this
natural wish. Even psychology with it,5 defined general terms is less of
a bed ot Procrustes than the common forms ot literature.
The writing and reading ot (iction and biography cive the mind
an agreeable sense ot coming tn grips with reality and with the supreme
reality ot individual human lite. But nothing could be more remote from
the reality of a man's Ute than any version of it which could be written
down The mere wTlting gives term to things which had no form and
substitutes an intellectual form tor a form which once had reality.
Every piece of writing is a dramalizalion. Even a chemical equation
dramatizes the complicated mutual lini>act ot substances. The liquation
is a brief synopsis. Certain common elements are abstracted and given
balance and apposition. More is omiited than is included.
And this is true not only ot shabby thought and cheap ■writing It
is only a little less true of the best ot both. Biography is always ten-
dentious and always untrue. Fiction and drama are further refmements

H. G. Wells by Antonina Vallentui,
published by John Day Co., New

Wells' personality eludes Mad-
ame Vallentin on page 77 as she
records his first published work.
In the remaining 240 pages our
biographer does an excellent job
of summarizing Wells' thought
as illustrated by his written work.
She does this job so accurately,
never attemptlne to water- his
philosophy down for public con-
sumption, that we can forgive her
the absence ot those personal
anecdotes which bring a person-
ality to lite in biography.

essayist and lecturer— H. G. Wells
was all of these. Yet one can take
courses in history, socioliogy.

without finding him required read-
ing. In the latter case at least
we console ourselves with the
thought that he is one 'bf a dls-
tmguished company. The most
widely known personality ot his
era, he is one of the most ignored.
H. G. Wells was an atheist,
o»m'munist sympathizer and an
exponent ot free love. He built
his philosophy around the fact ol
biological evolution before this
tact was accepted by more than a
few advanced thinkers in England.
Again, before World War 11 he an-
ticipated the breach of the Russo-
German alliance, and campaigned
for a greater understanding be-
tween East and West. He pictured
accurately the chaos that would
follow the peace, 'the undeclared
war which would follow the de-
clared one' as he called it. Wells
believed that we could do very
little to change the present Rus-

Strategy and Tactics
Lloyd Pcrclval. The Hockey Hand
book. Copp Clark, 1951, 314 pp. $3.50.
For avid hockey addicts of the
age when the urge to stickhandle
and bodycheck still remams this
thick handbook would be an ideal
gift, either tor a birthday or for
Christmas.
Author Percival is the mentor ol
the CBC Sports College, and this
book is a compilation ot hockey
research carried on by that or-
ganization over the last six years.
Findings on skills and their dif-
ferent importance in hockey play-
ing are enumerated in detail. Many
photographs, diagrams, and tables
illustrate the lessons.
Skating, Scormg Goals, Carrying
the Fuck are some ot the ele-
mentary chapters. Later In the
book strategy and tactics are
thoroughly discussed, with many
examples from top NHL combina-
tions. The final section on "The
Future" promises a future Hockey
Handbook in which will be dis-
cussed the technique ot breaking
down the psychological barrier that
prevents a player from realizing his
full playing potential.
In recent vears. several books on
Big League Hockey have been pub-
lished usually to catch the Christ-
mas trade. Most of these have been
substandard stuff, on the cheap
novel or tan mag level. Lloyd Per-
cival's Hockey Handbook, however,
is ot high calibre, and Its pictures
arc to illustrate hockey skills, not
merely to present bedroom wall

attitude towards life. She feeds on
her unhapplness as her daughter

typical of Sicilians who spend
years caught up in old daydreams
or brooding about an incident until
their feelings burst forth in violent
expressions which are far in excess
of the situation that originally in-
cited them,
Elsa Morante's novel Is inter-
spersed with bits of poetry of which
the closing ode to a cat Is a good
example: —
'■My agonies and fancies
Die in your kisses and sweet la-

So deeply you console me,
O cat of mine."
The strength of this novel lies In
the facile way in which Miss
Morante has clothed her modern
perceptions in nineteenth century
dress. She has a style that is both
different and startling to an Eng-
lish reader, and we can only hope
that the best of her has been re-
tained in this translation.

Undefeated in seven straight games. No, don't you have
to print the paper in red ink yet, chief, but it's a good start.
With a team like the one that beat Western on Saturday the
reproduction rate of victories is pretty high. Queen's birth
control measures shouldn't be too severe judging by their
past performances this year, but Varsity goes to Western
for the return game after that, and Western will be gunning
for you-know-exactly-who, after last Saturday.
Western, in our opinion, was not as bad as they looked
on the scoreboard. They were inside Varsity's fifteen three
or four times, only to lose the ball on third down when the
alert Varsity line drowned the passer on third down, or
blocked a placement attempt.
Their passing was being done by the half-backs until the
last quarter, and not being done very well, so Bob McMurdo
took over in the last quarter, and pitched the Mustangs 85
yards to a touchdown all on passes. Asked Metras why he
hadn't had McMurdo throwing all the game, mentioning that
Bob had smothered the Intermediates here last year with
his passing. He said "You've seen him pretty good? Well
I've seen him pretty damn bad." Maybe McMurdo saves his
best efforts for Varsity. If such is the case, the return game
at London may be the crucial match of the season. (Plug for
Western weekend. Maybe the Hotel London will leF me back
in now.)
We're reprinting below the statistics, which didn't print
up legibly in yesterday's paper. The most striking fact in
them was the superiority of the Varsity ground offence.
Western gains were mostly little short ones, thanks to the
Blues' secondary tackling, whereas our halfbacks ran for
many long gains. Oneschuk. Dale and Bewley all gained over
sixty yards from scrimmage.

UQ Bobblers Bow To Vic
Losing Opening Game 12-5
By BRUCE NORTH
The Victoria Scarlet and (iold stumbled, bumbled and lucked their way through to a
12-5 victory over a fumbling University College crew yesterday afternoon on the back cam-
pus. It was a somewhat dull but wacky affair in which one UC man tackled hia own team,
mate and both teams threw the ball away with abandon.

It was obvious that neither team
had had enough practice yet to
play a league game. The backs
were unsure of themselves, both
quarters calling for line plunges
again and in a game which soon
developed into the old standard of
two bucks and a kick. However
there was some vicious tackling and
either team might have won.
Vic opened the scoring in the
second quarter when UC fumbled
Hevenor's kick on their own 37
and Moyer recovered. Goudie went
off tackle for six and Lodge's pass
into the flat was grounded. Hevenor
then kicked into the end zone for
one point.
The Redmen went ahead in the
third quarter when Ed Richardson
intercepted Lodge's pass on his own
35. Quarterback Patterson heaved
a beautiful long strike to Jack Mc-
Farlane who carried down to the
Vic 5. Left half Ralph Brown fin-
ished off the drive, going over riglit
tackle for the lone UC major. Pat-
terson's convert was wide,
Victoria soon came back. After
gaining 2 first downs, their drive
was momentarily stopped when an-
other of Lodge's passes was inter-
cepted. However on the next play a
bad snap caused a UC backfielder
to drop the ball. There was a mad4-
scramble for the ball and somebody '
kicked it down the field. Wilson
bounded ahead of the rest of the
pack and fell on it behind the UC
goal line for a touchdown. Wooton
converted.
Late in the fourth quarter Vlc-
torfa recovered a UC fumble on
their 15 yard line. Bond went for
9 yards and another buck gained a
first down. After Lodge and Heve-
nor were both smeared for no gain.
Bond took a long pitch out and tore
around the left end to go over the
goal line standing up. Wooton's
convert attempt failed.
Bond was a standout for the
Scarlet and gold. Time and again
he hit the UC line and was set back
on his panties. But he kept coming
back to be the only substantial
ground gainer for the Vicsters. Pat-
terson threw several nice passes
for the Redmen but his long gains
in the air were always annulled by
fumbles in the backfield. George
Hevenor kicked a nice game for
Victoria but was hampwred by
several low snaps.

Taking Lacrosse Opener
Meds I, last year's intramural champions, played a hard
checking, well organized game to beat Victoria seniors 11-3
in the opening game of the intramural lacrosse season. It
was a very good, hard played game for an opener. The Vic-
toria team was fast enough but their checking was sloppy,
and though their attack was fast, it was poorly organized.
The Medsmen, all but once, gave the impression of having
things under control.
but the big Improvement was their
checking.
Vie opened up the scoring in the
thbrd period with their last goal.
Gear missed his check in front of
the Meds goal and three men
rushed in to swamp the goalie.
After that it was Meds all the way!
Vic seemed to slow down a bit,
and the well organized attack of
the medical men just rolled over
them. Kilty scored two more and
Sims scored one lone handed to
make the score 9-3 for Meds at the
end of the third quarter.

SPS beat, or perhaps trounced, the
Victoria Volley Ball team in two
games. The scores were 15-1 and
15-6 respectively. They may have!
been good games, but they looked
just a little one-sided.
On the field of soccah Dents
handed out a 3-0 licking to Wy-
cliffe College. The game was far
from good soccer, both teams lack-
ed inspiration, but the dentists de-
served to win. The forward lines
were slow and the shooting and
passing were wild; it was just a
matter of one team being worse
than another. Wycliffe's Chees-
man played a good gome, but get-
ting points was like pulling teeth,
and the Dentists are better at that.
' Tokiwa and Hunt turned in the
best performance for Dents. To-
kiwa scored twice and Hunt once.
The other soccer score was a.
0-0 tie between SPS ni and Trin-
ity B. It too was ijoor soccer.
The noon-hour lacrosse game is
covered elsewhere, and we won't
have the SPS I-St. Mike's A
score till tomorrow. Till to-mor-
, row then.
Gear, the only man returned
from last year's Meds team, was the
high scorer of the game with five
points to his credit. He scored the
only goal of the first quarter, run-
ning up the Adeline and shooting
the ball in the comer with a deadly
accurate shot, Vic's checking looked
weak for the first period, and they
seemed to have difficulty getting
going.
Shortly after the face off in the
second quarter Gear scored
for Meds. The game began to open
up. and the Vic team's checking was
_ a lot closer. Ham scored a nice goal
tor Vic. and for the next few mo-
ments it looked as If the Vic team
was going to take over. Rush scored
another for Vic to tie it up. Then
suddenly Gear whipped In from the
wing off the face-off and rifled one
in behind the Vic goalie to put the
Medsmen ahead. Then Meds' Kilty
and Vime scored two goals in quick
succession to end the second quar-
ter. Vic really came to Ufe in this
quarter. The whole team peppe<jt up,
Meds were ruimlng away with the
game. Gear scored one more and
Thomson scored his only one to
end it.
Gear was Meds' most deadly
weapon, but Kilty, Vime and Mac
Millan. who played without a rest
on defense, looked- very good. Vic's
best were Ham and Rush.
On the whole, though it was a
very good game, the Meds team had
too much class. Vic played hard but
they lacked the scoring punch of
Gear and the organization of the
Meds team In general.

For Boxing Class
Boxing classes have now started
There's daily coaching by Tony
Canzano between 5 and 6 p.m. in
the boxing room. All beginners who
are tired of wife-beating, and
beatings by any others, are wel-
come.
A tournament will be held in
December for novices, and an open
tournament in January will deter-
mine the members of the Intercol-
legiate team going to Queen's in
February. Many of ine old faces
have gone, and there will be spots
to fill on the team. Among the old
faces still around the campus are
Rolierto Coucelro, Norm Green,
Don Armstrong, Howard Greenly,
Pete Petcoff, Nick Betz, and Don

TENNIS, ANYONE?
So you're too broke to go to Queen'a next weekend ? So
what — for the price of nothing, you can attend an intercol-
legiate fracas that incorporates the spirit of the pigskin
with the tone of the Eglinton Hunt Club. Friday morning
at 9:30, shapely, athletic females representing Queen's, Mc-
Gill, Western, McMaster and Toronto will initiate the annual
tussle for the ladies' Intercollegiate Tennis Championship.
This bauble is presented to the ladies piling up the high
est total of points — it's a round-robin arrangement. Singles
and doubles will be run on Friday, with the finals taking
place on Saturday. All games will be played on the St. Hilda's
courts, west of the stadium on Devonshire Place. Spectators
(and tennis whites are not essential!) are definitely wel-
come. Last year, Toronto and McGill tied for honors in the
contest. The outcome of this year's tussle is anybody's guess.
But you can bet your ATL that the Blue and White beauties
will give all comers a run for their money. If you're not busy
Friday and Saturday, drop over to the St. Hilda's courts, and
I add yours to the cheers on tha sideline.

Live Issues
Editor, The Varsity:
With reference to the rather verbose tieatise on
University Drama by your much-publicized Pearl
Parnes, which appeared in Friday's Varsity, I
should like to point out a rather large omission
for one so seemingly well-versed m Inter-Varsity
Drama.
I have not the slightest interest in drama. How-fi
ever, upon seeing her article I proceeded to peruse
it -with a feeling of loyalty to the Alma Mater that
each and every one of us has — or should have.
Perhaps your reporter has never heard of
Bishop's University. This, the smallest recognized
university in the British Empire, is situated in
Lennoxville, Quebec, three miles from Sherbrooke,
one hundred and five miles from Montreal, in the
heait of the Eastern Townships. Once an Anglican
Theological College, now one of the oldest in
Canada, this university has expanded to include
faculties in Pure Science and Arts. There used to
be a Faculty of Medicine.
■With regard to drama I see no reason for the
omission of Bishop's from the line-up of such uni^
versities as your reporter chose to include in her
dissertation. May it be known that the Dramatic
Society of Bishop's University is over one hundi-ed
years old. Bishop's, with an emollment of 225
people, most of whom are men and 100 of whom
are freshmen who have had little or no experience
in dramatics, has for years continued to produce
stage plays, '
In the autumn there are presented annually, to
the joy and full co-operation of the people of
Sherbrooke and Lennoxville, the Minor Plays.
These are a series of three short plays which are
staged, stage-crewed, costumed and made a success
by the freshmen and freshettes themselves.
Further, let me explain the circumstances under
which this is undertaken. Bishop's has had, up
until one year ago, no stage or dressing rooms of
any kind. The stage was a makeshift one set up
in a gymnasium the size of the Bookstore. The
dressir^ rooms were across the Campus in the
Men's Residence. There was always a capacity
crowd at both performances.
The Major Play, as the production of the year
is called, takes place in the spring and features
the best of the freshman acting crop as well as

Book
Reviews
The topic of last week's Hart House debate strikes us as
something of an anachronism. While the Massey Commission
concerns itself with "the plight of the humanities", we, at
the University of Toronto, choose to discuss whether or not
technical training for the professions has any place in the
university.
While this may have been a burning question in Cardin-
*1 Newman's day, in the twentieth century in general, and on
the North American continent in particular, the place of the
professions in the university seems to have been fairly well
settled.
On the other hand, there is considerable doubt in the
minds of many students as to the purpose of humanities in
a university education. Even those who are most enthused
about the liberal arts have some difficulty in justifying, in-
telligently and convincingly, their raison (3'etre. Indeed, it is
sufficient to say that they feel a need to justify them.
It is becoming increasingly obvious that the convention-
al vindications of humanistic education are no longer suf- sailor, The Varsity:

Reader Assad's point Is well taken: When The
Varsity sent oat the questionnaire from which
the cross-country drama survey was made up,
Bishop's didn't get one, mainly because they
are not full members of Canadian Unlversrif
Press, through which such surveys are handled.
Like the rest of Canadian University drama,
that at Bishop's seems to be on an active

surely, an issue that can arouse a great deal of interest at
Editor, The Varsity:
I am ^vriting because of a
serious complaint about the effi-
ciency of the University Book-
store.
On October 2, I ordered a
French text which is prescribed
for the extension course which I
am taking towards my PhD. I
paid the fijll price of the book,
and was told to return in two
or three days to pick up the book,
and was assured that it would
then be available. I returned the
following Thursday, and was told
that it was not there yet but
would be there tomorrow. Fri-
day I was told that it would be
there Monday definitely
I was there four times the next
week, and each time was told
that the book was on its way
from the publishers and would be
there the next day or the day
after. All that week I missed
much of the benefit of my French,
classes because the Bookstore
could not provide the book they
had promised.
Finally, on Friday, Oct. 12 they
told me it had been out of stock
all along, but would be available
for me Monday. Monday, today,
two weeks after I had ordered the
book, they Informed me that the
Today I asked for my money
back. In spite of the large sums
of money which they have
hand, they told me (after a ten-
minute consultation with tha
manager) that I would have
go to another building for it,
which, being new to this campus,
I find it difficult to locate. I can
already see myself sitting in that
office, waiting perhaps twenty
minutes again for the beginning
Qf the final procedures, and all
for $1.30, which I cannot afford
to lose. Why could the money not
have been refunded at the counter
over which I originally handed
it?
A Bookstore should be efficient,
and if it is inefficient it is not
serving the purpose for which it
was created. I suggest that the
Bookstore either brush up its
management or close its doors.

EXPRESSING AM OPINION
Receive Student Mandate
On Russian Invitation Question
Shiriey Endicott, IV Vic, said , don conference had approved tha
last night at a meeting of the Ex- principle of sending and receiving
ternal Affairs Commission that she
feels that the National Federation
of University Students has not done
enough to stimulate discussion of
the decision against inviting Soviet
students to visit Canada. The
Conimission. by a vote of faculty
representatives, defeated Miss Endi-
cott's motion, that the University
oE Toronto delegates to the Sep-
temljer NFCUS conference at Lon-
don prepare a statement of the
reasons of the conference, and the
Toronto delegates in particular, for
turning down the invitation to So-
viet students in favour of South-
east Asian students.
Miss Endicott charged that the
delegates to the conference had no
clear mandate from the students
they represented on the subject of
the invitation. She asked that all
sides of the issue be made clear
to the students of the university,
in order to make informed discus-
sion possible.
Sid Wax, rv Meds, the chau--
man of the International Activi-
ties Commission of NFCUS. which
would be the body to extend the in-
vitation, said that the commission
would be unable to give a definite
statement of policy, as suggested
by Omar Walms.ley. grad, as its
duties are only to carry out the
mandate given to it by the Lon-
don conference. Walmsley's pro-
posal' that the lAC take a poll of
Canadian university opinion on the
subject was also defeated by a
faculty vote.
Wax said that, while the Lon-
students on an International level,
the delegates had decided that tho
difficulties ad problems of bringing
Soviet students at this time would
be too much for the present or-
ganization. On the other hand, he
said, the delegates felt that their
efforts could do the maximum good
In the South East Asian area, and
that the effort and money in-
volved in the program should be
used for constructive use where our
democratic influence can have
some effect.
The commission approved a mo-
tion put forward by Ian Montagnes,
III U.C., that, before the final
meeting of this year, each elected
: representative of the commission

Forestry Club
Opens Frolic
To University
The Forestry Pall Frolic this
7 ear will be open to ttie wbole
University lor the first time la
its history. The Foresters' Club
reached this decision as a result
of the decreased enrollment In
the faculty this year.
Bill Gregory, president of the
Foresters Club said the main rear
son for the change is to counter-
act the tendency of many uni-
versity students to regard forestry
as a strictly isolationist group In
the southwest corner of the cam-
pus. He said that each faculty
should be strong in itself, yet each
group on the campus should rec-
ognize its ties with the universltr
as a whole.
Gregory said that Forestry,
particularly after last year's ath-
letic record, tended to drift away
from the university. "We want
people to realize what we are and
how much fun we have." he added.
In a close debate which some- ,
tales blazed mLo heated arguments
,bout points of order, fraternities
ifere successfully defended yester-
lay at the first debate of the Uni-
versity College Mock Parliament.
The resolution, "That fraternities
ire detrimental to higher education
m the campus", was defeated 44-
10 after a two-hour discussion in
Wuoh the terms, "privilege" and
prejudice" played a prominent
art, and in which President Smith
ras said to approve of the fratern-
ity system.
Ken Jarvis, IV UO, opened the
ate with the remark that de-
■ers must be careful to avoid
iging personalities or emotions
tto the discussion "because ttie op-
isition was packed with good
;aunch fraternity memibers."
"Let Us therefore examine what
le average student needs, and
hat the fraternity supplies him."
e continued. The student needs a
rtace to live and eat, he said, and
^e fraternity does an excellent job
this.
However, he continued, a skunlc
'f all the requirements of a good
t. except for that extra some-
*«hing which makes him unpopular,
warvis then suggested that frater-
nities, like skunks, have a little ex-
«■& something
"Fraternities tend to restrict the
nmnber of friends a student has."
Jarvis said, "instead of broadening
"lis experience."

If the students are looking for a

First speaker for the opposition,
Marlon Hogarth, in UC. stated
that tor all practical purposes, the
purposes of the ideal university (ac-
cording to Newman) were the same
sis the purposes of the Ideal frater-
nity.
The fraternities stressed a social
consciousness of the community as
a whole, and also stressed stholar-

Friday Night
Liberals Approve
Credit Canirais
The University of Toronto Lib-
eral Club last night approved the
federal government's Imposition
of credit controls on consumer
buying by a vote of twenty-six to
six. This meeting of the Liberal
Club^jn the Junior Common Boom
of University College which saw
a record attendance for an open-
ing meeting.
The meeting consisted of a heat-
ed discussion of the recent im-
position of credit controls by the
federal government. John Modcof
opened the discussion by support-
ing the cause of price control,
which later found little support
among those present.
Medcof introduced a motion to
the effect that 'It the cost of liv-
ing was not effectively checked
by the present controls by about
February next year. It would be
necessary to impose a dUferent
set of controls.'
In introducing this motion. John
If...
We had a Student Union building,
actors in Hart House plays would
not hav- to rehearse in a leaky
I basement.
Medcoff IV VC. admitted that In
this emergency, there had to be
controls of some kind. "Whether
they are credit controls or not.
they must be controls that are go-
ing to work." he said. "Unless
they work soon, we must try some-
thing else, and that is none oth-
er than price controls."
In rebutting the statement.
Ralph Scane. HI Vic. pointed out
that Canada is trying to control an
economic crisis, with sound econ-
omic controls.
"Despite the fact that we are In
a pseudo-wartime economy, we
do not need wartime controls." he
emphasized. "Price controls with-
out complete control are like a
cushion which springs up in anoth-
er place when you push on it."
"Price controls Involve control
of everything. Including wages,
allocation of material and ration-
ing." he said. "Since we are in
a position where a cold war may
last a couple of decades, price
controls would have to last that
long too. In that time business
men would have lost all incentive
to free enterprise."
In conclusion he pointed out
that free enterprise was Democ-
racy's last line of defence, and
that if it was gone, comlete soc-
ialism would be around the cor-
ner.
A new version of "Follow the
Blue's" will be heard at the Stadium
Show this year as part o( the Home-
coming Week-end. The annual show
is to be presented on Friday eveu-
I ing. October 26 at Varsity Stadiuna.
The song, well known to fans of
the Varsity Blues, will be re-written
by Its composer Susie Davidson of
CKPH and heard for the first tima
at the Stadium Show. Seventy-five
choral shigers are needed for the
performance and all interested are
aswed to contact Bruce Snell on
Wednesday at 4 p.m. in the JCR,
University CoUege. This chorus is
to sing the revised edition of "Pol-
low the Blues'* as a tribute to th»
Varsity Blues.
Bob Maslerson will introduce the
Varsity football team to the audience
during the show.
The theme of the Stadium Show
this year is a big secret which the
Blue and White Society refuses te
disclose at this date. The main at-
traction of the production will bO
the appearance of special visitore
obtained with difficulty and at
great expense to the Blue and White

At the show, which will consist
of straight variety, there will be
everything from tumblers to singers.

THE STAR WEEKLY
hs five varied' sections constitute
a post graduate course in modem living
place, it ia very doubtful if federal
aid' is ultra vires the Dominion
parliament.
Actually, by the BJ^-A. act, the
federal government and parliament
have wide powers over education.
Besides the power of subsidization,
they have power to disallow any
provincial statute having to do with
education and they have power to
pass remedial orders and even legis-
lation in order to protect minority
educational rights and privileges.
But our Canadian constitution is
much more than the written docu-
ment known as the British North
America act. Many of its most es-
.sential principles are 'based o-i po''-Cy
declarations, agreements, and even
mere customs and practices.
One of these constitutional prin-
ciples that has in the last 50 years
of our history guided the statesman-
ship of our country is based not on
the B.N.A. act, or any other statute,
but upon the settlement which Can-
ada and Manitoba worked out in
1897 and 1898.
This principle Is that the federal
government will in no way touch
the field of education, even where it
has by virtue of the B.N.A. act full
power to act in that field.
That is the policy which Laurier
determined upon in 1898 as the only
possible way of removing from the
national sphere the bitter religious of federal politics.
Transferred from the Manitobil
field to thf Dominion by virtue oil
Sir Charles Tupper's remedial legis. I
lation in 1896, this difference ott
opinion almost wrecked the unitjl
of Canada and cetainly ruined thai
unity of at least one major politic»l|
party.
It is sheer wishfulness to suppos«|
that these differences of opinion f
have suddenly ceased in Canadit,
It is all very well to find all Cana-
dians agreed on the desirability o| '1
federal aid to education. Does aiiy< I
one really believe that there will W
be public controversy over who is to r
receive the federal sulisidies? '
If Catholic universities and col- ;
leges are to share in the grants,
what will be said by those who op-
pose public subsidies to religious in-
stitutions? On the other hand, if
they are excluded, who expects th«
Catholics to be silent while the non«
CathoUc schools are given an extra
edge over theirs by public subsidies
out of tax money to which they
contribute?
Before voting for direct federal
subsidies to universities, members of
parliament would do well to con-
sider the answers to these questions.
The settlement of the Manitoba
school question should not be lightly
disturbed if it is hoped to keep
rehgious acrimony out of the field.

In Hollywood, the wise guys are viewing Joseph
ManJuewicz with suspicion. They can't figure the
guy out because he's got a formula where he makes
lilma about "taboo" subjects where bright talk
takes more footage than snappy action, and yet
the films are making money.
It may discomfit the wise boys among the Dream
Merchants, but it is a good thing for those of us
who look for films that make some appeal to adult
interests, Mankiewicz's latest, PEO/LE WILL
TALK (at the University), is just as good as the
award-laden ALL ABOUT EVE. I think I will
see PEOPLE WILL TALK again.
This film is one of a series put out by Man-
kiewicz under the lavish and unrestricting hand
of top 30th Century-Pox man. Darryl Zanuck. It
started with A LETTER TO THREE WIVES (re-
member She Paul Douglas -Linda Darnell se-
quences?), and then came ALL ABOUT EVE, and
NO WAY OUT. This last picture was composed of
effective suspence and violence, but the others
shone because of the bright Miankiewicz script.
In a Mankiewicz film, his characters talk and
talk and talk. The parallel, and it is easy to draw
inasmuch as three of the Old Man's plays have
been filmed, is to Bernard Shaw. We go to hear
the talk, and relish the bright talk and the (pardon
the expression) message,
PBOPIiE WILL TALK concerns the brilliant Dr.
Noah Praetorius (Gary Grantish but engaging
enough) and his philosophy of life. The doctor mar-
ries a pregnant girl (Jeanne Grain) thereby giving
some of our Mrs. Grundys the heaves. He Is cross-
examined by an obvious colleague (Hume Cronyn
is a little hammy bat the temptation must have
been irresistible), and he survives charges of quack-
ery and dubious associations.
The story is not that logical; the brooding pres-
ence of Sunderson (Finlay Currie being as cr^g;
as can be) helps the suspense along, but seem^
rather stagey. But this is of little importance
People talk the way we wished more people would
talk. Some of the talk is on the clever coektai'.
chatter level. But more of it is subtle and intelli-
gent and adult. ~-
Dr. Praetorius says his Job is to "make siclt
people well." As might be expected, his methods
sometimes conflict with the orthodoxy and the
conservatism of the medical profession. And in
this way, Mankiewicz suggests that although ortho-
doxy and conservatism are essential to sound
medical practise, they are not the end-all and be-
all. That is why the film is dedicated to "the pa,
tient."
Mankiewicz' talent as a writer abounds through-
out the film, and his" talent as a director shows in
his making Jeanne c;rain seem convincing in a
difficult role. And the use of Walter Sleaak as a
sympathetic professor is an astute move; Slezak
must be quite tired of being pirate villains and such
like.
• There are some good double bills at the neigh-
borhood theatres right now. ON THE RIVIERa
and FOURTEEN HOUBS is a well-balanced and
satisfying program (Famous Players). The Lewis

BEACHHEAD (A Walk In The Sun) is at the

is the powerful program of two Powell and Press-
bui^er specialties : BLACK NARCISSUS and
STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN. STAIRWAY is a bet-
ter fihn. but NARCISSUS Is a disturbing mood-
piece, with one startling closeup that will make

Peace
anor The Varsity:
ny rumors are flying about
cnmpus concerning the past,
sent and future of the U. of
b*ace Council. To the best of
iv knowledge and belief the fol-
ding are a true .account,
^he control of the Council
leed hands in a perfectly
jtitutional fashion last spring,
any students being dissatisfied
the manner in which the
rnhlem of peace had been ap-
'Zdhed. The legality of the
— nge cannot be challenged
nee the Caput, after hearing
)th sides of the question, con-
-med the change.
It was not until Sunday, Oct.
Itli that I was promised the
joks of organization and they
ched me via the Hall Porter's
'gk at Hart House so that I
ive no way of knowing from
hence they came. I was in-
irmed that no minutes of meet-
pgs were kept and that there-
as no minute book.
3t appears that the organiza-
on was run in a fashion which,
to be as generous as possible,
Blight be called haphazard.
Most of the meetings to be
held this year will be open meet-
ings to which speakers will be
invitdd to talk on ways and
means of progressing towards
world peace. Although political
considerations are, in some coun-
tries, of prime Importance when
this problem is considered it is
felt that^ a broad program, view-
ing all possibilities dispassionate-
ly, might be initiated.
We have invited a speaker from
the Toronto World Federalists for
, a meeting to be held at X p.m.
, on Wednesday, October 24th. The
meeting will be open but enrol-
ment in the Council can be, made
at that time. Watch for place, as
yet undetermined.
I would remind the student
body that it is their responsi-
bility, by vocal attendance, to
see that a true reflection of stu-
dent opinion is fortlicoming from
their own clubs and activities.

aitor, The Tarsity:
your article on the Interna-
il student Service Confer-
.ie to be held this week-end at
fcAlaster your concluding state-
ment was erroneous. You said re-
garding the raising of funds;
"The quota for Toronto is usu-
ally about $7,000, most of this
being raised by a levy included in
tht incidental fees, by a motion
of the S.A.C., and the remainder
■oming from outside contribu-
tions and special events, includ-
iJig tag-days and stunts such as
tiie Treasure Hunt last year."
This is not at all the case. In.
general the campaign objective
this campus has been one
lollar per student, and it was in
ine with this that All-Varsity
Ud last vear set its objective at
'10,000. Only at U.B.C. is money
lor ISS raised by a levy voted by
■^e Students Council. At all other
Canadian universities money is
raised by campaigns soliciting
Voluntary contributions. The
loney so raised is used partly to
lupport tlie National and Inter-
lational offices, and the remain-
ler to .support a material relief
►rogramme and the Exchange
Lnd DP Scholarship plan. The
lational Office in turn devotes
"Tiuch of its efforts to raising ad-
litional money for relief from
irivate and cori>orate sources. In
dditlon the national office raises
ther money from non-university
ources for ttie summer seminars.

Editor, The Varsity:
A letter appeared recently in
.your colmnns over the signature
of Mr. E. Engelbert. In it he re-
lated two specific examples of
human discourtesy and proceeded
to elaborate using the words
"these men^'. What men, Mr. En-
gelbert? The perpebators of vio-
lence and dlscreditors of a great
and honorable profession, or ttie
Keenleysides? What is your
point?
If you are denouncing the lat-
ter I feel that your conclusions
can hardly go u n c h a 1 1 e nged.
Should you, in a spirit of indig-
nation, be chastising the former,
I wholeheartedly agree.
It seems that non -conformity
is a characteristic common to stu-
dents of secondary histitutions.
Later we learn through the pro-
cesses of social imitation and
maturation that life is easier if
we assume the color of our sur-
roundings.
And trends may occur when
thought or action is funnelled
into p>aths provided by pressure
groups and social or political
manipulators.
Amid all this, it is indeed
Vartening to note that some
>en, and we speak of the edu-
cated men referred to by Mr. En-
gelbert, have the courage to rise
above the sea of conformiam and
diplomatic reticence. A well-
timed ihock is required to make
us aware of the malpractices
flourishing in, and deceiving,
complacency derived from, an es-
tablished pattern.
In other words we need more
than a light (universities 1, we
need a beacon (Keenleysides) to
point the way.

Editor, The Varsity:
On behalf of a number of mem-
bers of the Graduate School I
should like to use The Varsity's
correspondence columns to draw
to the attention of the approx-
imately 1200 graduate students on
the campus that a Graduate Stu-
dent Union exists of which they
are all automatically members.
Its first Monday afternoon tea
was held on October 15, when
about 40 people were present.
These teas are held regularly
on Monday afternoons and we
feel that many graduate students
would benefit by attending them.
Aside from the enjoyment to
be derived, a more concrete divi-
dend was suggested by the sec-
retary of the School, who inform-
ed us that more than one gradu-
ate student has remarited to him,
"Oh yes, I met my wife at a
Graduate Union tea". It is highly
likely that the same ha.s occurred
with the sexes reversed.
Nominations are now being
called for to fill the four offices
on the executive. They must be
filled by noon of Thursday. Oct.
18bh. Each nomination muse have
three sponsors. The constitution of
the Graduate Union allows as
wide a program at activities as
its members may desire; only
initiative , and energy are re-
quired. Elections will be held
next Mondey afternoon at four
o'clocli at the Graduate School ott

Small Wage Hike
To McGill Profs
Montreal, Oct. 12 (CUP) —
Moderate salary and wage increases
to members of the McGill Univer-
sity staff were announced yester-
day by Dr. F. Cyril James, McGill
Principal.
He pointed out that with the
federal government's grant to edu-
cation, which this year will amount
to over $500,000, McGill will be in
\he black for the first time since
VE Day. Earlier, Dr. James had
said McGili's deficit for the coming
session would be $505,000.
"Salaries at the universities of
Alberta and Toronto have also
risen in recent months as a result
of increased provhicial grants,
while the scale of salaries at uni-
versities in the United States is
still hig'her," he stated.

TRINITY EDGE ST. MIKE'ST^
By BRUCE MACDONALD
We intercepted a vicious rumour flying around the
campus yesterday to the effect that the Blues had won the
.Yates Cup. Whether this particular character was merely
mistaken in point of time and thought that last Saturday's
tussle with the Mustangs was the playoff game or whether
he feels that the Blues are a cinch to win the pennant now
that they have downed both McGill and Western, is pretty
hard to say.
~What we can say without any hesitation is that our
friend is a long way off the beaten track on both counts.
We v.'ould hate to create an impression of pessimism (the
exact opposite is probably far more typical of a college
newspaper sport department), but anyone who thinks the
Blues are a shoo-in for the championship have got another
think coming.
Just offhand, we can think of three factors that influ-
ence our opinion. The first of them is Queen's. It is a bit
of Intercollegiate history that the Gaels count their foot-
ball season as a success if they defeat the Blues even once
and Ii)se all the other games. For some strange reason, we
have become their traditional rivals and they make no bones
about it. And let us not forget that Queen's was the only
team to defeat last year's champs twice. Giant killers?
The second reason is our dear old friend John P. Metras.
While in our heart, as in the hearts of every died-in-the-
wool Varsity fan, there is little love for the Mustang men-
tor, there is. nevertheless, a great deal of healthy respect.
Metras has pulled the cat out of the bag on more than one
occasion in the past.
The third, and probably the most valid consideration is
what we hear from our little inner man. We have been look-
ing on this Intercollegiate play for too many seasons to be
at all sure that everything goes according to schedule.
Let's look at it this way. As far as can be gathered
from league play so far, the Blue^ have the most powerful
club in the Intercollegiate loop. Their chances of winning
the coveted Yates hardware look brighter than anyone else's.
And let's leave it at that.
We have stood on the sidelines during two Intramural
football games this week and cannot help but remarking on
the difference between them. The Trinity-St. Mike's game
was a good one to watch, with spirit and .some excellent
football for this stage of the Intramural schedule.
On the other hand, the Vic-UC fame played Monday
afternoon was far from an exhibition of good football. Both
:Victtoria's ma.iors were scored directly as a result of
fumbles, and there was little of the smooth play that was
evident in much of the game yesterday afternoon. Perhaps
the difficulty is nothing more than inadequate pre-season
practice, but if Trinity and St, Mike's can turn the trick it
eeems that someone has been a Ittle slow getting his job
done as far as the others are concerned.
The trouble with this last-minute training business is
that the conditioning is the thing most neglected, wth in-
juries, and serious ones, the natural result.

Sr. Interfac
Track Meet

duce a fully equipped goal tender
by game time. In another boxla
action, UC whipped Trinity A 13-3.
Dutch Young was top man for the
Redmen with five goals and team-
male Longhouse netted four.
Bryan got two lor the losers.
In the late game on the lacrosse
front, Forestry edged Dents G-1
in a penaity-oacked contest. A
total of ten s^itences were hand-
ed out by the referee, four to the
winners and six to the losers. The
Woodsmen were ahead 6-2 going
into the last session, and held off
a determined Dent drive. Clartc
was top scorer, netting three for
tlie winners, while Deacoff of
Forestry and Diefenbaker of
Dents had two apiece.
The Senior Interlaculty track
meet today will start at 3:15 at the
stadium. The final entries have
been taken, and there is a good
number entered in all events,
though none are what you could
call crowded.
The late start means that the
events will have to be crammed
into a space of two hours. This
will be hard on athletes entered in
two events, but the Intercollegi-
ate meet Is only one week away,
and everyone needs a good hard
workout. The officials will have
to get Uiings going bang-bang-
bang to keep up to the schedule
that has been set.
There will also be two races
held over from last year's junior
meet, the 440 and 880. These will
be run immediately before the
senior races, which will pretty well
rule out anyone running both sen-
ior and junior in these events.
If the Weather keeps up as well
as it has, times should be good.
Favorites in the sprints are Doug
Wilson, a postgrad, transferring
from Western, who is ineligible
for Senior Intercollegiate : Mike
Zuberec; Don Pawcett, who won
tiie junior 100. and Larry Yeigh.
who won the junior 220. Eric Kof-

from McMasteri in the 440. Mur-
ray Gaziuk in the 880, and Herb
Tilson. Chuck Wortman and
George McMullin in the mile and
three mile. Bazos and Ojala in
the hurdles. Henderson and
Vrzesneviski in the javelin, Endel
Tulving In the discus, and Bemie

er names to watch.
One thing's sure: with 27.000

Last Quarter PoinJ
Gives Trinity Winj
In Season Opener
By FRANIt QUINLAN
Fumbles and some over enthusias-
tic line play led to the downfall of
St. Mike's yesterday as they lost a
7-6 heartbrcaker to an alert Trin-
ity tea«n in the opening game of
the season for both sides. All the
scoring In the gam^ came as a re-
sult of bobbles; the diference was
that the Buttery Boys only fumbled
once.
The cODtest was bitterly fought
and tempers flared more than once.
It took only a couple of minutes
of the game to elapse before one
player from each side was put out
for fighting. Rough play on the
line was a hindrance to the Mike-
men in particular as their last
ditch stand to pull the game out of
the fire was stopped dead when a
long pass was called back for el-
bowing.
Trinity struck first^ late in the ■
second quarter after taking over the
ball on their own 25. They made 15
yards when the Double Blue were
penalized for pillng-on. Thomas
took a pass to put his team on the
Irish 40. and two plays later Trin-
ity kicked to Miller of St. Mike's
who let the ball slip through his
hand3. The Red and Black re-
covered on the one-yard line and
Lawson bulled over on the next
play to put his teammates out in
front. Andison's kick was good to
give Trinity a 6-0 half-time lead.
The third quarter saw Trinity
suffer an attack of fumblltis and
muff a kick on their 12 yard line.
Dave Winters split the Trinity line
for five and then spun around end
for the touchdown. Heughen's suc-
deadlocked thj

place the Buttery Boys in scorinjl
position on the 12. Tha St. Mike'i
line held for two plays so Trin-j
ity booted the pigskin over
Hoskin Ave. for the all -import '»,'\
deciding point.
With time running out St. MIke'j
made a desperate bid for victory.
Miller and Wiant combined for 1
first down. After two futile plays,
Miller heaved a long pass to Jmy
Decker who made a sea5ational
catch with three opoosins nl'^^.^v;
breathing down his neck. However
an elbowing penalty was called on
St. Mike's and the pass was disal-
lowed. That was the clincher, and
a few seconds later the game was
over.
The play was pretty even through-
out. The winners were better in (lie
air while the losers had the
stronger ground attack. Like moit
evenly-matched contests the breaki
decided the outcome, and the tri-
umphant Buttery Boys were able
to capitalize on their opportunities.

In the S.W. comer of Trinity field

BotK the Senior and Intermedi-

ry with the Guelph Aggies in two
soccer matches to be played at
3:00 o'clock this afternoon on the
front campus.
The Bie Bines will be out after
their second straight win over
OAC, having beaten them 7-4 in
the away-game last Friday. The
team will be the same as that
fielded at Guelph, as the Blues
came through without any injur-

The man to stop on the Aggies
squad has proved to be Louisy,
their starry centre-forward. He
has racked up a total of eight
goals in the two games that OAC
have played, scoring five against
Western, and three against the
Blues last Friday. Doug Moffat,
Varsity's centre-half will bave his
hands full stopping him, but if
checked closely. Louisy should not
cause too much trouble. If the
rest of the squad play as they did
on Friday, the Blues should re-

of 400 attended from a college of
2,000. Dramatic productions and
concerts, including Sir Thomas
Beecham and the Royal Philhar-
monic, were well attended. Partly,
of course, this is owing to the fact
that Smith is a self-contained com-
munity; the town of Northampton
offers few distractions to the col-
lege student.
One distraction which neither the
the , College nor town offers is a resi-

Ottawa — (CUP) — All league competition in football has been a^lish
ed while the future of other sports activities as carleton College remains
doubtful, as a result of the withdrawal of a J4.000 grant by the univer-
sity authorities for athletic activities. In addition the college will have to
get along without an athletic director or assistant.
A-meetine last spring to decide how to continue sports activities ac-
cording to the money available ended in the decision to drop football, the
major expense in the past, but to try and maintain the other sports.
Carleton professors wiU undertake the leadership in various activities to
be continued. ^ , . ^
Hockey with its budget sliced by more than half, swunming, track,
goll and s'kiln.> will be maintained. Basketball retains the largest slice of
the budget. Carleton maintains two teams, one mtercoUegiate, the other
city intermediate. , ^. , ,
Total athletic Income this year amounts to «2,750. drawn entirely from
students' fees and gate receipts. Though the total budget was set to allow
a surnlus of S131, it is expected that smaller enrollment and untorseen
expenses will result in a deficit of about »150, the Carleton, undergrad-
uate newspaper reported.

too great for the boys in the Blue
and White Society's "TJepartment ;
of Organized Mayhem! Whether'
it be a parade, a lunch hour gath-
ering OQ the front Campus, or half
time at a football game, these are
the fellows who always spark the
event by showing up in outlandish
or ridiculous costumes.
Calculated to appear on the
surface entirely un-rehearsed and
dls-organized so that anything can
happen, many of these zany go-
ings-on are plarmed down to the
last detail on paper, and require
up to two weeks of spade-work
and chasing around for props.
For instance, last year for the
Queen's' game, the Depai'tment
heard that the Gaels' mascot was
a real live bear-cub, and decided
at once that the appropriate
stuDt to produce at the game would
be a bear hunt! But a group of
just plain bear hunters was not
enough, so for variety they pro- ,
duced a collection of big game |
hunters, of many types. There
was a British Colonel from Ben- ]
gal. a Daniel Boone from the
backwoods, a Commando with his
pet Bazooka gun. and an Indian
guide, laden with enough stores
for a small army. For this stunt
fireworks, guns of the period, a
pup tent, buckskins, a home-
made stovepipe Bazooka that real-
ly fired and dozens of other artic-
les were needed. No wonder it
took & week of planning and
searching to put it on.
In plazuiing the stunts, the may-
hem men attempt, of course, to
make them characteristic of the
spirit of the day.
For example, their latest pres-
entation, just last Saturday, at
the Western game, saluted the
royal visitors by producing a
guard of mediaeval earls and bar-
stepped into the breach at half-
time sporting spirited chargers
in aid ot the Red Feather Cam-
paign.
A great deal has probably been
said about the place these stunts
occupy at football games, and
whether they are reaDy necessary.
The Blue and White Society be-
lieves they contribute greatly to
the cultivation of the right 'Spirits*
at the games. For tliis reason x
portion of the Society's annual
budget is put aside for the crear
tion of weird and wonderful do-
ings on the gridiron, by people
other than the players. For hall
the fun comes from getting the
fans into that ripperty-rapperty
frame of mind to which these
stunts along with the band and
cheerleaders contribute.
Many people wonder just what
type of student willingly takes
part week after week in these
maniacal goings-on. Actually, the
stuntmen represent all courses
and Faculties; from first year
Trinity, to Fourth year Maths and
Physics, from Pre-Meds to Hon-
our Enghsh. And not only malei
have taken part either. In a re-
cent playoff two of the wooly ani-
mal suits used were adequately
filled by members of the fairer
seK, one being the Woman's Ed-
itor of The Varsity!
And so with Homecoming week-
end just around the corner, yoa
can be sure the Department ol
Organized Mayhem Is busy these
nights around its boiling cauldron
of ideas, like the witches in Mac-
beth, cooking up new ingenious
madness to spring on its unsus-
pecting public.

Back From a Summer's Study in a Dockland Settlement
in East-end London, England, The Writer Looks At Re-
ligion im London, Paris, Cologne and Rome,
By WILLIAM GLENESK
Outside Vivian Van Damm's Windmill Theatre
in Piccadilly Circus, the Londoner's eye is caught
by the blaze of a neon sign: "WE NEVER CLOSE."
And the show goes on. with the West End bal-
conies filled to the rafters in these post-war years.
But the pews of the cathedral, the central hall
and the parish church are gathering local dust
these days as the Londoner goes to the cinema,
the corner pub, or stays at home. He says:
"In the city we need no bells:
Let them waken the suburbs.

If the weather is foul we stay at home and read

And the Church does not seem to be wanted
In country or in suburb; and in the town
Only for important weddings."
Poet T. E. Eliot's words rang true as looked
around at the empty pews in the east-end London
church, where thirty persons were scattered in
rows that will hold a thousand. It was like a cell-
group 'meeting in Massey Hail. In another ser-
vice in a makeshift chapel, as the incense burned
I saw with a shock that of those present, forty
were women, and only two were men. And the
majority were middle-aged or old. The inference is
clear.
In England, religion is living on borrowed time.
Thirty years ago Christianity was in the blood of
the dominant nations. At least the ruflng powers
sang "God Of Our Fattiers" or engraved their
coinage "In God We Trust."' and pretended re-
spect from Christian sanctions. And the King
ruled by the grace of Ood.
Rudyard Kipling wrote of a region east of Suez
where "there ain't no Ten Commandments and a
man can haise a thirst." But between the time
of Kipling and our time, the frontier of the Ten
Commandments has retreated from the Suez to the
Rhine. There is no common moral appeal in the
consulates of Europe, and where "The nations
used to be sure of themselves; to-day they are in
terror of themselves." The empty pew in England
points at a rampant agnostic epidemic on the
Continent which Jean Paul Sartre painted ia bold
strokes in Le Diable et le Bon Dieu.

A Visit, Again
The question of Soviet students visiting Canada came
up again last night at the External Affairs Commission
meeting.
I And there were some disturbing aspects about it. Most
«f the discussion stemmed from well known Communist stu-
dents, like Shirley Endicott, head of the campus Labor Pro-
gressive Party group. And most of the answers that group
received from the External Affairs people weren't answers
at all — they were evasions.
I The inference presented by the External Affairs Cora-
mission was that the whole matter of the Toronto stand on
the Soviet student question at the recent NFCUS Confer-
ence held in London has been well and adequately pre-
sented to the campus. A request (in the form of a reso-
lution presented by Miss Endicott) that a clear statement
giving reasons for Toronto's vote against such a visit was
defeated.
■ < Although a resolution stating that the matter will be
looked into before the final External Affair.? meeting next
spring was accepted, the feeling of the meeting seemed to
be: Let's try and forget it.
r ' The fact remains that there has been no public ex- '
.planation of the reasons for the Toronto stand, outside a OUR READERS WRITE
general list of reasons presented in an editorial in this paper.
These were Conference reasons as we understood them, and
had perhaps nothing to do with the attitudes of Toronto rep-
resentatives. '
The disturbing thing about last night's meeting is that
the questions must come, it appears, from the Communists,
or their sympathisers. And when this happens, no clear cut
reasons, no solid argument is advanced to support the To-
ronto stand, but vague things about "money, etc.j" are
bandied about.
It may well be that the Toronto delegates had good and
sufficient reason for voting on this issue as they did. If
so, they should be only too glad to bring those reasons out
into the public view, where they can be discussed.
If on the other hand the reasons were not so sound,
then perhaps it would be best to keep them from being
widely known. There is nothing like the glare of publicity
to show up the flaws in argument.
' I We feel that the NFCUS Conference as a whole, made a
big mistake in not asking the Soviet students to come to
Canada. They had nothing really to lose, beyond the usual
battle with the narrow thinking we are developing on issues
which concern communism in any way.
Certainly in a representative organization like the Na-
tional Federation of Canadian University Students, contro-
versial issues such as the Soviet visit should be taken to the
Student body at large. Although the NFCUS Conference
makes claim to be representative, there is no guarantee tha'
it is infallible. Perhaps it has made its own fears those of [^|||| RoOk
the Canadian student, and unjustly so. L^UII UWWIV
In any case, it would be encouraging to be able to note
that when such a matter is brought up in open meetings,
the answers are firm and definite, and adequate to answer
questions asked. This should be true no matter who brings
the matter up.
Sid Wax, chairman of the Council, and head of the
NFCUS foreign arm for this year, made it clear last night
that NFCUS is not abandoning the idea of East-West con-
tact, for it is going ahead with plans to meet the represen-
tatives of the International Union of Students to work out,
if possible, some of the problems between us. No matter
what the outcome of such a meeting, it has little to do with
Soviet students visiting Canada.
That i^BUe still seeds to b« discussed in public
niversary Year. A widespread hostility to the clergy
faces the cause of religion at every turn. Like tlig
problem in Russia in 1917,' where God, the Churc
and the Czar were one in the eyes of the people.
Prance the cathedrals have emptied as men .saw
the Church as a tool of the bourgeoisie. The vast ,
mass of the workers, the proletariat, sees tlie |
priest as an enemy of the people, and gives him a i
wide berth. r
An experiment to buck this antipathy is under
way in the midst of the Montmartre slums. Pound-
ed in 1943 by the late Abbe Gaudin, the Roman
Catholic Paris Mission has 25 priests who doffed
theU: robes to work in industry, each in a slum area
on his own. I saw in the Byzantine towers of tlia
Sacre Coeur Cathedral a symbol of the gulf be-
tween the common man and the opulence and ir,
relevance of his Church. I saw in the Paris Mis.
sion a sign that these priests meant business in
taking God into the assembly line. As France
fa^es the force of futility, saddened in the 19tli
Century because she could no longer believe in
God. that sadness creeps deeper in this 20th Cen-
tury when she finds she can no longer believe in
man. The priests of the Paris Mission have their
Paith on the front lines as they seek" out the God
in man.
Rome is another story. In the Eternal City in
June I stared hard at the pagan conditions rearing
their heads in the abject poverty, crime and glit-
ter along the Tiber's banks. Yet en route to
audience with the Pope, the magnificence of St.
Peter's and the ornate gilt of the Vatican, seerncd
in stark irony to its Pounder's dictum; "Feed
my sheep." The hungry are not fed in Rome.
In three days at a CYO youth hostel, the Her.
mann Josef Haus in downtown Cologne, I saw
religion turned to reality in the post-war ruins.
A stone's throw from the twin towers of tlie
Cathedral, the hostel looks like a modern YMCA.
was built by the boys with financial aid from tlie
Church. Thus in spite of the threat of the Soviet
200 kilometres west, of lov wages and long hours,
crumbling walls on all sides, and the splitting of
Germany into East and West, these boys face the
future with lifted eyes. Religion is no opiate of the
people in this city. It is their life.
In an age where science of ends lies buried In the
science of means, where a spiritual thrombosis
strikes the old world mind, the time is ripe for a
prophet. Like the voice crying in the wilderness,
T. S. Eliot puts the question; "Has the Church
failed mankind, or has mankind failed the
Church?" And what' of the empty pew?

You know, we have seen too
much. No country is aJjsolutely
good, and none is absolutely bad,
and when people think of the
present, they tend to focus ttieir
attention on defects and when
they think of the past, they see
everything through rosy glasses.
This is why we sometimes raise
objections against aspects of the
Canadian way of life..
But we Euiopeans from beliind
the Iron Curtain got a reminder
just now.

All the pages were immaculately

as to worthwhile pages because
not a single page-corner had been

that everything was important —
tliere was no ink-underlined se-
lection of passages to help me and
every single page was in place.

flualifications. They are both under twenty-one.
One staffer, Mai Crawford, lives in a rooming house.
iiVVhen the enumerators came around he was not in: the land-
lady did not know his age, but felt he was twenty-one, and
* slip was left for him. Under the regulations the enumer-

whether he was in fact twenty-one. They did not do so.
The other staffer, Adele Krehm, was home when the
enumerators called. She indicated that she wasn't twenty-
one, was left a slip anyway a few days later.
Enumerators jobs are political patronage. Half of the

Embryo Freshman Reception
Shown SA C By Arts College
Last night the Students' Administrative Council tabled a plan for the beginnings of
a university-wide freshman orientation program. However, the four Arts colleges which
are sponsoring the program say they have it all figured out and will continue with it.
The plan calls for a set of invita- versity-wide perspective would be*
fostered.
tion tea dances at each of the
four colleges during the latter part
of this tern^. If these dances prove
a satisfactory method of introduc-
mg freshmen from the different col-
leges, the program will be gradually
extended to include other -faculties.
The Arts Colleges asked the SAC
for money to cover mailing and
publicity costs for the dances. The
cost of the dances themselves would
be handled by the colleges. The
matter was tabled until representa-
tives of the colleges could meet with
the SAC Extra-curricular Affairs
Co-ordinating Committee to discuss
details of the money needed.
The plan is the outcome of a
meeting held last spring between
representatives of the colleges and
faculties to discuss ways and means
of an integrated freshman reception
for the fall. No accord was reached
at the meeting because there were
no concrete plans offered, according
to Eteve Rose, President of the Uni-
versity College Literary and Ath-
letic Society.
Since that meeting. University,
Victoria, Trinity and St. Michael's
Colleges conceived this plan.
The proposed program of dances
is intentionally proposed on a small
scELle as an experiment. It has been
planned in the hope that a uni- >
Graeme Ferguson, Vic, complain-
ed that the dances did not achieve
the primary purpose of the original
scheme, which was (through a series
of lectures and discussions) to en-
courage student- faculty discussion
of such questions as the purpose of
a university and the place ol stu-
dents in it.
Paul Forestell, St. Mike's, explain-
ed that the dances would really be
"lots of chairs and Uttle dancing",
and that facuty and students would
have a chance to meet at them.
"There I* alrea<^ a program of
interfaculty exchange at dances."
pointed out Doug Sherk, SPS. "We
had co-eds from two Arts colleges
at the Engineering freshman
dance," he continued.'
The four colleges also presented
recommendations for freshman
receptions in following years. They
warned that the question of a uni-
versity-wide program must be ap-
proached slowly. "Next year", they
said, "perhaps, one or two other
faculties might be included. When
the results of this are apparent and
have proved rewarding, the program
might be further implemented to
include more faculties."
They also warned against a uni-
versity-wide freshman orientation
reception program which would in-
terfere with the already existing
freshman facilities as they already
exist in the various faculties and
colleges.

United Nation
Campus Club
Meets Today
The University of Toronto's
United Nations Club is holding Its
first formal meeting today in Room
11 of Trinity College at 4:00 p.m.
This club Is a newcomer to the
campus, and is based on successful
experience of similar groups at the
University of British Columbia and
others.
Michael .Bind.-vSmith, former
U.B.C. officer, said it was found
that students have an interest in
learning the fundamentals of in-
ternational organization. "They
have a desire to play a more con-
crete part in promoting this world
laboratory of co-operation", he
said.
The first item of business will be
discussion of the draft Constitu-
tion prepared by the steering com
mlttee, John Tinker III Law. chair
man of the committee stated. This
will be followed by election of of-
ficers and presentation of a tenta-
tive program for discussion by the
raeeting-at-large.
An interesting section of the pro-
gram will be devoted to preparing a
model Security Council and As-
sembly. The experience gained ir
presenting the viewpoint of other
nations under a UN atmosphere has
been found to be a dramatic way of
making the problems of the world's
people real and vital to students
isolated on the campus, A trip to
UN Headquarters in New York in
co-operation with the International
Relations Club is also planned.
Staff Notice
There will be a general meeting

Room 11, UC. at 1:00 p.m. today.

bers in special departments who are
regular contributors to The Varsity.

bers of tlie staff should make sure

Early Year Book
Had Pin-ups; Plus
"A $5 shoe for $3.50." The
"Mandolin, Banjo and Guitar
Club." Such were the prospects
offered to tlie students of the Uni-
versity of Toronto in the first issue
of Torontonensis. The dateline
reads 1898.
Of coarse, as prices rose and
"Victorian" became less of an age
and more of a memory, the aspect
of Torontonensis changed, but the
first few issues have all the quali-
ties of a good satire. A satire
complete with background, in the
form of floral "wallpaper" in deli-
cate shades of brown for the fly-
leaf.
Today, Torontonensis Is an up
and coming publication of the
SAC that hopes to become a year
book for the whole university in-
stead of just the graduating year.
Along with the traditional pictures
of graduates, clubs, and fraterni-
ties, there will be photographs
of campus hfe to form a diary of
the year's extra-curricular events.
But the first few years of Toron-
tonensis saw its pages filled with
a hodgepodge of sentiment as well
as fact. The women graduates of
1898 "The Fair Ones of '98"— by
a happy coincidence. 52 in number,
were coyly classed as Diamonds.
Clubs, Hearts, or Spades, under
the heading of a dainty translation
from Virgil— "A thing of moods
and fancies is a woman."
This first issue also contained
a photograph of the "Physical
Laboratory." apparently equipped
mainly with mirrors and balances,
a short story about a campus ro-
mance during examinations en-
titled "A Man and a Girl and a
Book" by B. K. Sandwell. (editor
emeritus of Saturday Night), and
an advertisement for the "White-
ley Exerciser." featuring a photo-
graph of a discreetly draped Ama-
zon. Vying with each other there
were ads for the Upper Canada
Tract Society and Hiram Walker.
The issue of 191)3, caiTied away
by the coed aspect of university
life, made a long step in the dl-
, rection of the Varga Calendar.

highlighted by verses that may
have inspired Edgar Guest. Ono
of these. "The Summer Girl,"
shows a Gibson girl, clad in a
long skirt, red jacket, and ascot,
tennis racquet in gloved hand. She
Inspired the following lyric:
"The summer girl once won
my heart
With grace beyond the reach
of art.
But when she cruelly pitted
me,
I thought life aye must winter
be."
The Hockey Girl" is not quite
up to Gibson standards. In fact,
her discreet skirt, blue and wiilto
sweater, and styUsh night cap
could Inspire a semi-Umerlck :
"Hove you heard of the girl
who plays hockey?
She can certainly sling lots
of slang.
While her English is what is
called rocky.
Yet to hearts she can brhig
a love pang."
They must have been campaign-
ing for a student union even then.
There is a suitably Dickensoniaa
cartoon of President James Low-

Gray's resignation was accepted at the first meeting of the

Israelite
Needed
Declares
By B. H, CHETKOW
"Dr. Cherrick. how do you think
Israel wUl solve her seemingly un-
lessening economic difficulties?"
I asked innocently.
"Young man." the world director
at the Hebrew University's Depart-
ment of Organization and Informa-
tioQ grinningly retorted, "the Tal-
mud says that since Biblical times
Iffophecy has been reserved for
^ildren and fools. I have outgrown
<be first ccwidition, and I have no
fctentioa of qualifying for the
second."
The . renowned Jewish orator,
brought to Toronto by the Cana-
gian Friends of the Hebrew
pnlversity, was nevertheless a con-
siderable source of Information,
fee pointed out Israel's crying need,
pue to her . unprecedented imml-
pation, for teachers of all kinds,
pe also quoted statistics to show
jtafc in the recent national elec-
Bons 80 percent of the population
ihowed pro-Western orientation.
In reply to the pointed question
*o you think Israel sincerely
*nts a peace with the neighboring
ffab states?" Dr. Cherrick replied
Btnphatically yes." He explained
1 lhat Israel still possessed as much'
I Mdeveloped land as It had de-
: *eIoped, and that political peace
»uld promote much needed Middle
astern trade. "Incidentally." he
Jjjded. "Arabs in Israel are full
i Wttzens, vote In elections, and have
•Bpresentatlves in the Parliament."
I>r. Cherrick hoped that the
discussions ot the Palestine Com-
clUation Committee, now meeting
in Paris, would be successful.
When asked specifically about the
Hebrew University, Dr. Cherrick
was frank. Yearly fees are ap-
proximately $150: but living condi-
tions are difficult and require about
$100 per month. That Israelis were
unable to use their Mount Scopus
campus facilities (the only — and
therefore strategic — road lies In
irreconcilable Arab hands) makes
Improvised conditions in the city
of Jerusalem very difficult indeed.
The Department of English has
expanded enormously in the last
two years. Even though five new
instructors were hired, English lec-
tures were always overcrowded.
Bat remember/' Dr. Cherrick
smiled slgnificanUy. "if you want
to study in Israel, you had better
learn the nation's language. With
out a knowledge of Hebrew you
will have all kinds of difficulties."

"The Tories have to be careful
not to take the dentures out of

last night. Professor Underbill w2e
chairing a panel discussion at the
Women's Union, on the subjct of
tde United Kinedom today and the
prospects of botti major parties in
the general election next week.
Professor B. Wilkinson, the first
speaker, said that he was n:t going
to prophesy the results of the elec-
tion but just attempt to give his
impressions of (he England he saw
last summer. Lil>erty. equality and
fraternity, he said, were the three
headings under which he would like
to examine socialism In Britain.
Under the heading of equality.
Professor Wilkinson said that in
some cases people were making
more money than they could spend
because of rationing.
Mr. G. Bennett sRid that he had
found that morale had lifted to a
oonsidei-able extent in Britain. The
festival had much to do with it. he
stated, biit chiefly the gnmiblin? of
the English people was something
peculiar to the English way of life.
Mr. Bennett said the chief worry
of the Labour government was the
disunity of the trade imlons. "Per-
haips." said Mr. Bennett, "it would
be well If the Tories did win and
tlien the unions would know who
the enemy was."
The third speaker. Mr. E. G. Tur-

department from Scotland, He said
that he had the advantage of ex-
amining the British picture from a

sity. Her position is now filled by
Elinor Strangways, IV UC, the for-
mer Makeup Editor.
The appointments were made
unanimously after a report of the
Publications Committee, which met
last Monday. Up till that time, no
applications had been made for the
editorship of The Varsity, although
the position had been advertised for
two weeks.
•> At the Publications Committee
Meeting, Miss Browne explained
the absence of applications by the
fact that no one on The Varsity
really wanted the position.
Gray pointed out that the only
person who could take on the posi-
tion was Miss Browne, and that she
did not want it.
He nominated Miss Browne to
accept the position of editor of The
Varsity, if she were willing to do
so. and she accepted Jt.
The Council accepted Gray's res-
ignation on the principle that ho
was no longer an undergraduate,
and that he could no longer there-
fore take part in an extra-curricular
activity. Gray failed to remove con-
ditions on two supplemental exam-
inations last summer. "We don't let
football players play if they haven't
made their years"*, was the analogy
given.
This leaves The Varsity with a
female Editor. Managing Editor, and
Feature Editor, in the top five posi-
tions, not including the vacant
Makeup editorship. Cracked SAC
President Syd Wax. "The Varsity is
turning into a matriarchy."

find the stagehand backstage, they
went in search of him. Upon arriv-
ing backstage they encountered a
shabbily dressed, elderly man whom
they "naturally assumed to be the
stagehand,"
Accosting this j^uitor-lik* fel-
low they said "We'd like to have
yon look lifter lighting for the
Friday danC«." _The surprised
man blnrted out ' But I . .
"Oh yes, we know you've been
told about it " the eager chairmen
intermpted, '"but we thought we'd
just remind you." The F-week co-
ordinators continued exuberantly,
telling of their plans over the in-
sistent protestations of the "stage
hand."
Finally, when they had stopiped
for brealh. the confused man said
in a predominantly French ac-
cent:
"I'm sorry, you must have the
wrong person. I won't be here Fri-
day night. You see, my name Is

Jolliffe Deplores Apath

Class Yawns
At Vic Prof
For Praci
ice
Yesterday everyone in a class at
Vic yawned, and the lecturer was
pleased. Professor G. A. McMullen
started the first of a series of lec-
tures on public speaking and de-
bating procedure by asking the class
for relaxed, spontaneous yawns
while they leaned back iji their seats
and stretched.
Next Prof. McMullen had the
class practise lauehing and asked
for a recital of "Hail, hail the
gang's all here." The class also
heard about the bloomin' blasted
sparrow and but, bit, baJre, hoop,
bat.
The Victoria CoHege Debating
Parliament has asked Prof McMul-
len to conduct a series of lectures
on Wednesdays at 4:00 p.m. The
lectures will include public speak-
ing and voice exercises, some of
which have already been quoted. He
also intends to spend some time on
semantics — and vocabularies.
Prof. McMullen told the class yes-
terday that a student has many
vocabularies. He has a different
vocabulary for Church, sports and
the class room. Prof. McMullen
warned about using technical or
long words where a simple word
would do.
However the highlight of the lec-
ture for most of the students was
the discovery of the way the tongue
touches the teeth when one says
"k-k-k-katy beautiful Katy." The
class also let the empty spaces in
their noses ("not the head") re-
verberate as they hummed mmm
and said on a misty moisty morn-
ing, or ah-moon of my delight.
Any student wishing to recite
Shakespeare — "dead, dead, dead
for a ducat, dead" or let their "leet
grip the floor and feel the reson-
ance", should go to Room 18 in Vic
next week when Prof. McMullen
will clench his teeth and snarl at
the class in the interest of better
debates.

Make-Up
Classes
The Vic Dramatic Society is
sponsoring one class in basic
stage make-up on Wed. Oct. 24th
in Room 21 in Victoria College.
The Insti-uction will be given by
Mr. L. Warner, an authority on
make-up. The class will start at
7:30, and ten cents will be charg
ed for non-members.
This Saturday, October 20. when
some of tile more frivolous amongst
us are cavorting in Kingston, some
of the actors in our midst will be
venturing their all in front of the
lights in Hart House Theatre for
the first time .this year. Tlie oc-
casion is the first of five nights of
one-act plays to be presented dur-
ing the year under the sponsor-
ship of the UTDC < University of
Toronto Drama Committee). On
November 13 and 14 there will be
a group of five or six plays, and
there will be two more bills of one-
acters on the 7th and 8th of Jan-
uary.
These one-act plays provide a
real opportunity for the students
who are Interested. They are the
only completely student produc-
tions on the campus; they allow
more people to take part in them
than does a longer play, and, since
there are not as many lines to
leam, not as many rehearsals to
attend and. judging by past bills of
one-act plays, the standard is not
set as high as it might be, they do
not put such a heavy burden on
the student.
Of special not* Is the fact that
these plays are picked atid directed
by students: for it will l>e accepted
no doubt that youth is usually far
more daring and venturesome than
crabbed age. In the past this bold-
ness has contributed often to
inadequate productions, but at the
same time these inadequate show5
haVe usually been the most inter-
esting and the most fun for act-
ors and audience.
Last year people had z chance to
iee their first Christopher Fiy
play— THOR WITH ANGELS, on a
bill with Shaw s impossible DON
JUAN IN HELL. Some people may
remember two years ago when Jean
Paul Sartre's NO EXIT was banned
from Hart House Theatre and the
Women's Union.

Tbe UTDC which sponsors these
plays is a co-ordinating group mada
up of members of the various col-
lege drama clubs, and it i.s I be-
lieve, the only orgaiiizaiion of its
bind on the campus. Through pool-
ing the resources and several tal-
ents of the clubs, the UTDC gives
students a chance to act on Hart
House stage, and they provide a
good evening's entertainment for'
the theatre-goers. On top of that
they have formed a liaison between
Hart House Theatre and the drama
clubs to their mutual aclvaiilage.
(Mr. Gill, the director, can reach

UTDC have utilized Mr. Gill's wide
knowledge of the theatre.)
What is perhaps not as well
ifnown about these nights of one-

total of 451/2 points. However, SPS tool< the Junior title
from the arts college by placing a first and a fourth in the
880, which was held over from the Junior Meet last week

Coach Dave Munro said two weeks ago that he had no grreat hopes for his S.P.S. f

the back campus yesterday as they whitewashed Meds 8-0. The team was alert and w
ing hard against a Med team that showed a few flashes of brilliance through ove

Meds kick-off and had a touchdown in six plays. From his own 25 Bea Lewis got a

A SPORTS PROFILE
Stove Oneschuh
By IRWIN GUTTMAN 1/
"That boy ie Just great offensively
•nd defensively".
The comment was from, a proud
(Varsity coach In answer to a
querry from Hec Crelghton, of
veferee fame, about "this boy Ones-
Ihuck". And Bob Masterson's quick
paply just re-echoed the current
Bcntiments of University of To-
ronto football fans with regard to
''Ones Steve" Oneschuk,
Stephen Oneschuk, to give his
•orrect name, comes to Toronto
IroDi that colorful sports-minded
town of St. Catharines, Ontario.
His elementary education was re-
eeived at the Prince of Wales and
.Victoria public schools. Steve then
attended the St. Catharines Col-
degiate Institute, where for four
years he totrfc their technology

Obtained his Senior Matriculation
in two years.
< Steve played a little football in
jmblic school and in his first year
at High School played in the
school's Intramural league. But
was not until second year that he
Xllayed in an organized league,
gaining a berth on tlie School's
Junior team. Steve started out as
an end In football, mostly because
be wanted to foUow In the loot-
eteps of an older brother, who was
Also an end on the team when ha
attended St. Catharines Collegiate.
But Coach Jim McNulty decided
to try Oneschuk out at fullback,
thus being able to utilize his speed
and throwing ability to best ad-
mntage, Steve clicked and has
dayed out of the fullback spot since

lot of kicking and passing that
year for McNuIty's team,
Jim McNulty has had a pro-
nounced influence on the young
life of Fullback Steve. Besides be-
ing his football coach, JUa became
a fast friend of Steve's, and in
fact, it was he who persuaded
Oneschuk to switch from his Tech.
course and matriculate, so that he
could go to University. As Jim Is a
U. of T. graduate and a friend of
Bob Masterson's, it was natural that
the college Steve picked out was in
Toronto.
As to tl\at inevitable QuesUon,
what was your greatest thrill in
St. Catherines beat them 13-1
and I scored twelve of those points,
by going over for two touchdowns
and converting both of them. I got
the first one by an end run of
twenty-five yards, but the second
one was the one that i will never
forget. In high school we played
from a double wing formation, and
the ball came on a direct snap to
me for a plunge, and 65 yards
later I was over for a touchdown."
That was Steve's (irat big foot-
ball thrill, but "It's kind of just
continued from there", he says
modestly. But Steve's record can-
not be hidden. For although he
failed to mention it. Steve was a
standout in the 1950 Red FeathBr
Tournament, leading his team to
the Championship of tliis tourna-
ment. Nor will Varsity football fans
forget his stellar offensive and de^
fenslve play in the first two Inter
collegiate games of this season,
which saw him score two touch'
downs, boot a single, and play
spectacularly on defense, especially
so on pass defence. Not bad for a
player just fresh out of High School
ranis.
After Varsity, Oneschuk hopes to
become a high school coach and
Physical Education Instructor pre-
ferably back home in St. Kltts.
Steve Is also Interested in lacrosse
and basketball.
As to the teams he has met up
with so far, Steve rated McQlll the
toughest, but with Western you
have "to duck more elbows — it's
a wonder more fellows didn't get
Injured the way they played."
But no matter what way oppos-
ing Unes play, it will take quite a
Redmeu announced yesterday that
Ken Wagner, hard-driving halfback
with the Redmen lor the past two
seasons, has been dropped from the
MoGill team for breaking training
rules.
Wagner did not make the trip to
Kingston with Uie team last Satur-
day because, a£ the MoGill mentor
put U^, he was not "digging In at
practices". Obeck stated that "It Is
nbt the first time a player has been
fired for smoking, and there is ab-
solutely no chance of his being le-
ins bated."*
Commenting on the firing of
Wagner, one U. of T. official stat-
ed that there is a no-smoking rule
at VarsUy as well, but to date there
has been no trouble anforcing It.
"Unconditional dismissal seems
rather harsh," he stated, and added
that there must have been other
circumstances which would moti
vate a ooach to fire a top player
of Wagner's caliibre.
Wagner was one of the chief fac-
tors in MoGUl's victory over the
Blues hi Toronto last fall and has

those who, did not wish to leave
their books in over the year, there
would be a siiecial student to help
them locate their unsold texts, the

baleony viewpoint
By FRANK MORITSUGC
A PLaSe n?T^^qnM'''°^ and a holler about how terrific a picture
rrf't.^. ^ ^ '^''^'^ ^ """^^^ originality on my part.
Cru c£ are a most unanimous in their ecstatic glee about this George
Stevens creation. And how right they are. '-■eorge
As you undoubtedly know, A PLACE IN THE SUN (at the Imper-al)
IS a film version of Theodore Dr.iser s An AmeHcan Tragedy is the
second one in fact, the first one in 1931 made Dreiser so mad becau«
illrn scr?p^peSl' '''' wanted Thi^eX
Perhaps Dreier would npt have liked this version either but as a
film It IS completely satisfying. The usual Hollywood practise when
approaching a novel is to retain the title and some of the princii>al
Characters and then sew it up in an obvious variation of the American
dream and the oft-contnved happy ending. But producer-director
George Stevens has dared to be different here. ■
It would seem that Stevens didn't much care for the reactions of
the popcorn eaters and the fan magazine addicts. In presenting his
synthesis of the Dreiser storj'. he has used subtletj-. magnificent camera
art. and directorial brilHance matching that of Carol Reed in THE
faijLein idol.
The story, cut out of the turgid Dreiser prose, has the yoimg
ambitious hero (Montgomery Clifc in his best role) caught in a net of
circumstances and social pressures. He desperately wants to enter the
class of the society pages, and yet when he gets his chance, through
the love of a beautiful and spoiled socialite lElizabeth Taylon he is
blocked by his factory girl love. She <SheI]ey Winters) is pregnant.
Her insistence on their marriage, his growing decision to di<;pose
of her by drowning, her accidental drowning, and the trial for murder
are depicted with subtlety and full understanding. The love scene
closeup of Miss Taylor and Clift .'=0 predominantly featured in ttie
advertising is a wonderful and touching .--equence. And the use of the
closeups later to explain the yuung man s thoughts when he is captured
by justice is extraordinarily effective.
George Stevens uses simple louche?, making them effective and
significant. There are nir.iiy beautiful shots, and yet each one is
important to the action, not, as usual, a cUp from a travelog.
One of the most friehtennig scenes is when the young man, over-
whelmed by guilt, flees in terror from policemen through a forest. As -
we see his dim, dark form stumbling and gasping its way through ths
bushes and branches, we feel a sense of recognition: we taste again
those times when we have fled in absolute fear from some nameless
terror.
It is the breathtakingly beautiful Elizabeth Taylor's performance
tliat puts the final seal of genius on director Stevens' work. It has been
the custom after Miss Taylor has gi'own up beautiful to content the
camera with lovely but empty lingering on her face. But here Misa
Taylor acts her part perfectly, and she seems a real person for a change.
In her final scene in the death cell, Miss Taylor would touch even the
deepest cynic.
In all fairness, it should be reported that some clunk and hi^ babe
directly in front of us, weren't particularly interested in A PLACE IW '
THE SUN. Both of these cretins kept on going out for a .moke or
something else. Perhaps a Jungle Jim opus or the latest episode in the
history of the Bowery Boys would have satisfied them.
But it must be said that with A PLACE IN THE SUN, and with
A STREETCAR. NAMED DESIRE and others coming up, we critic*
won't be able to sneer at Hollywood as easily as we used to.

iVo Dirty Saints
Swan Song
' The Varsity rarely has an opportunity to talk about
itself. As we change editors it seems appropriate to outline
a few of the principles that guide this paper.
There was a suggestion in discussions , which led up to
the appointment of the new editor that The Varsity, by and
large, was an expendable element on the campus. Such a
view of course, sends any good staffer into a froth. Even
'the hint of such a view causes his ulcer to do a triple flip.
Those who are responsible for the conduct of extra-
curricular affairs, existing in the somewhat dreamy never-
never land of student politics, might well ponder the place
of a publication such as The Varsity on this campus. It has
become a tremendous job in the course of the seventy years
in which it has published. It keeps as many as 150 student
volunteers working about sixteen hours a day. And the top
jobs on the paper demand a great deal from anyone who
must also try to maintain his intellectual integrity. (Intel-
lectual integrity has been defined as: "The ability to pass
examinations in May", by the Students' Administrative
Council representative from University College, Charles
Jflanley.)
Men and women work on this paper for many reasons.
Perhaps the most important of these is because they feel
that education consists to a large degree in making oneself
aware of the ways in which ideas can be presented to the
world, particularly under the hectic modern systems we live
in. Expression, its technique and practice, looms very large
in the mind of anyone who not only wants to think, but
wants also to be able to communicate that thinking.
There are undoubtedly those who are of the opinion
that work on The Varsity is a sure way to glory and fame,
in a limited undergraduate sense. Such may be the case, but
the amount Tf work that it takes, the constant meeting of a
deadline that arrives with the regularity of the sun, the
inability to put anything off until tomorrow because tomor-
row will be too late, this represents a grind and a responsi-
bility that few undergraduates are willing to accept.
One staff member once put it this way: "After you
have sweated blood on an organization, devoted every pos-
sible minute to it, given up a scholarship, and sacrificed all
other interests for it, you don't like to hear that it was done
for ambition." That particular staff member had been accus-
ed of over-ambition, and he was justifiably upset about the
accusation.
Senior jobs on this paper are paid. But it is in no sense
. a commercial transaction : The pay remains low. And as far
as we can see, the majority of those who work on the paper
aren't particularly interested in the fame and glory angle.
Most of them consider it education, in one sense of the term.
It is not the kind of education for which academic standing
is given. And it is not easy education.
Miss Barbara Browne, the new editor of The Varsity,
and the staff that will work with her, have taken on one of
the heaviest of undergraduate responsibilities. Their job_ is
service, their aim as interesting and as valuable a Varsity
each morning as can be produced. The job that they have
done to date proves that they are well qualified for their
task.
One of the warmest memories that any editor of The
.Varsity, no matter how short his term, takes with him is of
the staff that made it possible for him to be editor. With-
out them he is nothing, and there is no paper. There has
been, and will continue to be, under Miss Browne, an excel-
lent Varsity staff.
We wish them a good, controversial year.
Editor. The Varsity:
I liave been rather interested
In the discussions relating to the
topic of "proper male dress" in
the campus. The whole matter of
course reverts back to that little
burlesque in the Garden of Eden.
Had Adam and Eve not fallen,
tills discussion need never have
arisen; and incidentally many of
the people would have lost their
purpose in living. However, since
all Torontonians are forced to
dress themselves in what Jack
Wells fondly calls resalia, this
naturally becomes a valid prob-
lem — what is suitable dress for
the campus? Naturally we will
assume that all students have
met the primary requirements
they learned from the Junior Red
Cross — cleanliness and neat-
ness — regardless of what they
wear.
I don't agree with the state-
ment, that an educated man
should have among his criteria
that of a standard dress. It may
be. and usually is. a result but
not a necessary one. G. K. .Ches-
terton says somewhere: "a saint
can afford to be dirty but a re-
ducer has to be clean". An edu-
cated man usually does not wear
a suit coat or tie because he is
educated, but for other expendi-
ent reasons. One might be a rule
regarding dress.
There is a danger though,
when outside FORCES attempt .
to impose a decorum upon others.
True it may be for the best —
perhaps giving a feeling of
solidarity and maturity, but the
point should be arrived at un-
obtrusively or else it should be a
departure for humorous incident.
For example, you may find
campus martyrs dodging from
class to class in raglan jackets.

A Trade School?
Editor. The Varsity:
The writer of the editorial
"Live Issues" seems to be la-
bouring under the misconcep^
tlon that the recent debate in
Hart House dealt with some buri-
ed old nineteenth century ques-
tion on whether or not profes-
sional training belonged to our
educational system. Had he
taken the trouble to acquaint
himself with what was said at
the debate — had he even read
the report on the debate pub-
lished in this newspaper — he
could hardly have written such
an editorial as he did.
The recent debate was con-
cerned with such questions as
these : is the danger that the
presence of professional train-
ing in the university will crowd
out the liberal arts (thus de-
privtDg the members of our s(>^
city of any opportunity to ob-
tain a sense of values thus pre-
venting them from ever at-
attempting to find the way out
of the present mess the world
is In) so severe as to necessi-
tate the divorce of university
and trade school? or is is so-
necessary to ensure the profes-
sional man some liberal educa-
tion that we do not dare divorce
the two fields of education and
must therefore find some
er way of meeting the dani;]
that liberal education will
under our present
tem?
I believe that these questiJ
are live issues. I believe M
they are problems tbat we mij
lace. And I believe that therj
fore the recent debate in
House was significant.
Editorial writers in The
»lty can perform a very valj
able service in criticizing
tlons and groups on the cai|
pus, and they should make ;
that their criticism is
ranted. I feel . that they fia^
tended to be somewhat Inefl
sponsible this year. I am speatl
ing personally, and not in adil
Way oh behalf of the DebEital
Committee — that the criticisms
the Hart House Debates Coiof
mittee was quite unwarranted!
May I suggest that, tf
Varsity wishes to retain the m|
fidence and respect of the ;
dents of this university, it ma!u|
sure that its Editorials exbibo
the intelligence and sense of nJ
sponsibility that, in the past, id

In the true spirit of journalism
I have prepared a series of bulle-
tins to illustrate the popular con-
toversy In Hart House concern-
ing the deportment and dress of
its members. In these days of
stress, no thinking person, no
comprehensive mind, no critical
intellect can rest unclouded and
unconcerned in the shadow of this
dire moral issue. I have delved
into both the past and future in
the hope tliat even our women
readers may appreciate this vital
problem.
Bulletin 1: The Board of Stew-
ards in Hart House requests that
students wear a jacket while en-
gaged in the building.
Bulletin 2: Writers protest new
ruling in The Varsity and the
controversy is on.
Bulletin 3: Whole campus di-
vided into opposing factions. War-
den and Varsity editor growl on
same page.
Bulletin 4: In order to satisfy
the prevailing austerity. Hart
House officials allow more women
into the House. Female reporters
of The Varsity are being ad-
mitted and women will be put
in charge of the swim periods.
Bulletin 5 : Student refused
permission to use the Music
Room in order to practice on his
mouth organ. Student claicns un-
fair discrimination because he
was wearing a sweater.
Bulletin 6: An informal Wed-
nesday afternoon recital is an-
nounced in Hart House, Lilli St.
Cyr, well known strip artist. Is
to perform. All members are to
appear properly dressed and no
optical instruments are allowed.
Bulletin 7: Warden patiently
explains to students that the wear-
ing o{ a jacket Is compul-
sory — i.e.. that it goes, with the
meal. Student claims that the
jacket comes a la carte like the
dessert.
Bulletin 8: Hart House publish-
es an ad in The Varsity asking
for new Hall Porter. The new
type are to be heavier and more
robust in order to double as
bouncers.
Bulletin t»: Students not pro-
perly attired will be compelled to
choose the expensive meat plate
in the Great Hall. This insidious
plan will drive them into poverty
during the first term, thus en-^
suring their absence in the sec-
ond.
Bulletin 10: A group of stur
dents threatens to storm Hart
House in shirt sleeves if the price
of a single banana or halt grape-
fruit is kept at ten cents.
Bulletin 11: Student, when
questioned as to why he was
sleeping on a couch in the com-
mon room, replies that there la
not sufficient light to read pro-
perly and that the heat and hu-
midity would put anyone to
sleep. For naughty words, student
is required to wash out his mouth
with Tuck Shop coffee.
Bulletin 12: All members of
Hart House sporting rolled up
trousers will be required to wear
socks.
Bulletin 13: Students properly
attired will be allowed to stao^
for the regular time of onUj
twenty minutes in the Grei

ternal Affairs, and has been active

The first Harl House produc-
tion. The Madwoman of Chaillot,
by Jean Giradoux, opens on Fri-
day. Oct. 26th. In the picture
above, Irma, played by Selina
Wliyne. Is translating the sign
language of the Deaf-Irtute (Rob-
ert Jackson) for the Mad Coun-
tess (Ann Murray).
The play, as adapted by Maurice
Valency. Is a fantastic comedy
about a madwoman who con-
founds the enemte of mankind,
the Little People. In the course of
an afternoon. In the first act.
she discovers that all the Power-
ful People of the world are plan-
ning to make war. In the second
act she manages to get aU the
enemies Into her cellar where she
disposes of them down a mys-
terious trap-door.
Director Robert Gill says that
actually there are four mod-
women, three of whom are from
Trinity and one is from Vic. Ann
Murray. iV Trinity plays the
madwoman of Chaillot. Margot
Murray. IV Trinity Is the mad-
woman from Passy, Joan Arm-
strong. II Trinity, Is the woman
from Saint Sulplce. and Barbara
Walker, U Vic. Is the Madwoman
from La Concorde. The two lead-
ing male actors are George Mc-
Cowan, III Vic, as the Rag-plckcr
and James Armour, in Trinity,
as the President.
Ann Murray was the nurse in
last year's Hart House production
of Medea and was Miss Isabel In
the Trinity production of "The
Enchanted". McCowan was also
In Medea where he played the
part of Jason, and had the lead-
ing role Of Charleston In the Vic
production of "Thunder Rock".
Large signs, are posted in the
Junior Common Room at Univer-
sity CoUege stating that the Com-
mon Room will be closed if its
present untidy condition does not
improve.
Roger Bull, secretary of the
University College Literary and
Athletic Society described the de-
plorable condition of the JCR as
the ne plus in swinish living."
Even tile engineers would find the
place dirty, added the Publicity
Director.
Later in the year, if there is
Improvement, the Lit may hold an
elimination contest to see whether
the men or women o£ UC can Iceep
the room most tidy.
Last year women were barred
from the JCR for about 10 days
and the move was successful in
keeping the room clean said Lit
Director. Al Strauss. The Lit is
considering barring women from
the JCR again.
As a last resort the Lit will use
the suggestion of a member of the
Standing Committee. The plan
offers alternatives of either charg-
ing .05c or .02c admission for each
person, or selling annual member-
ship pins at .50c apiece. The
money will be used to pay one or
two persons to clean the room
regularly.
Although the room is cleaned up
at 4 p.m. daily and remains fair-
ly clean until lunch, after lunch
the litter of newspapers, sandwich
wrappers and cigarette butts and
ashes is terrible and Al Strauss
fears that the Board of Health will
close the JCR because it is put-
ting the City Dump out of busi-
ness.
- "The Toronto Street-cleaning
Department has asked us to use
the JCR as a proving ground for
new men and so far 15 out of 16
have flunked." added Strauss.

Lit officials stated that as usual
in the Fall elections the voters
were few. Approximately 35% of
those eligible to vote cast their
ballot for Secretary-Treasurer and
approximately 50% voted for the
first year executive. Figures on

I shculd like to tell you what you're
mi~siiig.
I should like (o -tell you tliat in
not eatmg at the . Union vou are
mis.-in- tlie most delicious food, the
most nounsliini; viands, the most
palate pleasing potatiom ever
placed before mortal man. I should
like to tell you th t— but after one
meal you'd know I was lying.
However eating at the Union is
aa experience. Jusi- as being buri-d
in a lime pit or wrestling with an
alligator is an experience. Every-
body otight to eat at the Union at
least once. You may survive for a
second-try. Besides when the mem-
ory of the event has f..ded you wiU
still have your ul:er.
Actually meal time at the Union
is quite exciting. For slieer savagery
tftie only comparable scene to that
in tlie Union hall at twelve noon is
the temple-tcssing sequence from
■•Samson and Deiilah". Those cour-
ageous rascals who go there dnily
will prabably become human can-
nonballs or trapeze aitists on grad-
uation— they are a reckless breed of
men !
In the line-up it never pays to
make a choice. If you hesitate for
a second, a hot oat-meal breath
will bla^t your ear witLi the admon-
ition in true Humphrey Bogait
style, "Keep moving, Clyde". In
your rush to get to the "table vou
will wind up with sbj dUhes" of
corn starch pudding and no meat
and. potatoes.
When you finally get sitting
down, you will find that you have
spilled half your milk and your
soup bowl has floated to, the south
end of the ti'ay, Your problem
solved immediately by anclioring it
with a boiled potato. Confidentially,
som^ of those potatoes could an-
chor the U.S.S. Missouri.
Across ihe table two Medsmen
are discussing their last class — cut-
ting open some unfortunate stom^
ach — gallstones, "liver (with on-
ions?) , kidneys, etc., etc. As you
turn a lovely pea-green, the voice
of a Scienceman in violent argU'
ment with a fellow Engineer
reaches your drooping ears.

She felt that the girls must have

This year, however, the ticket
sales are down considerably, ac-
cording to the ticket office In Hart

to be the downward trend in en-

seem, however, to be the reason,

By FRANK MORITSVGU
Coming out of a TALES OF HOFTMAN mat^
inee (at the Towne Cinema), I felt like emitting a
belch, right into the yawning maw of the sub-
way excavation. A dignified belch, mind you; alter
all, consider the prices. But, a belch.
TALES OF HOFFMAN, yoo see, is a ten-
course banquet with gorgeous trimmings and
decor. Except all the courses are rich and heavy,
like having a French chocolate sundae followed by
cream puffs and then Boston cream pie ad in-
finitum. That Is why, the belch.
The makers of HOFFMAN, Michael Powell and
Emeric Pres-sburger, are among the most imagin-
ative of the impressive post-war school of British
film-makers. Their work in black-and-white in-
cludes 49th PARALLEL and I KNOW WHERE
I'M GOING, both above- average movies. But it is
their entry into the Technicolor field that has
marked their current ta?tes and interests. STAIR-
WAY TO HEAVEN was a rich fantasy— a bit too
long perhaps but well worthwhile. BLACK NAR-
CISSUS was an off-beat deal in which color com-
bined with vivid Indian scenery U> create a mood
of uneasy disturbance." bordering on the obscene.
Then came the HOFFMAN parent. THE RED
SHOES, with Massine and Shearer and an extra-
ordinary ballet.
One memory of THE RED SHOES that "remains
is the white and red makeup worn by hero Marius
Goring, who aspired for ballerina Shearer in vain.
And that white-and-red makeup is a clue to what
to expect from HOFFMAN.
The new work, accompanied by much critical
pros and cons, as well the highest of art house
prestige publicity, is a full-dress presentation of
the Offenbach opera.
The music is conducted by Beecham which is a
point in favor. It is sung by real singers, none who
have the exceptional brilliance of say, Italo Tajo in
-the Italian opera films, and Leonide Massine. and
to the art director Hein Heckroth. When dancing
is going on to the Offenbach music, then ail is
well but otherwise, everything becomes Tedium in
Baroque.
- At their best, the Heckroth seta and the colorful
costumes are magnificent and imaginative and al-
ways rich. In the Third Tale, the settings seem
Daliesque, although sans limply flexible watches
and nudes with machinery m bellies. But the E>aU
parallel is especially valid, because after two-thirds
of the film is past, we begin to feel that imagina-
tion has conquered taste.
Moira. Shearer just dances, and in the Prologue
Dragonfly dance, and in the Flrst Tale about the
Dancing Doll ano CJoppellus, she Is excellent. R», I
bert Helpmann hams his way through as the vii, I
lain of each Tale, and in this fantastic setting J
his pop-eyeing and grimacing seems completeijtn
fitting. But neither her nor Leonide Massine
enough dancing. It is when either of these twq i
men are around that HOFFMAN is fun to watcli, I
The first two Tales are better, because of thj I
dancing, and because in the Second Tale, Tcherirn l
is seductive as all get out without dancing, and th»l
settings and the pace suggest decadence and im,j
morahty in the way the heavy Technicolor meth.;
ods did in BLACK NARCISSUS.
Bnt the Third Tale about the consumptive singei
<Ann Ayars) sags badly. We are given the twd
principals, Hoffman (Robert Rounseville) and Misil
Ayars. singing away for an interminable length!
of time, with nothing to catch our attention the |
way the dancing or the scenery did in the firsfi |
two Tales. We miss Helpmann and Marine who |
hover only in the baclcgroimd,
Robert Rounseville as Hoffman carries the load \
of the film, and perhaps that is why we do not
have total satisfaction. Rounseville is a good tenor,
and on the stage, he should be very adequate. But
he lacks a screen personality which must register I
in the closetips that film emphasizes.
There are other carpings. Having the dancing
Shearer also singing In soprano (dubbed of cour.se)
is very disconcerting. And opera in English almost
Inevitably results in silliness such as "Here I am, '
liere I am, here I ahhhhhm ..." way up in the
register.
You may develop indigestion when you see
TALES OF HOFFMAN. But the film is worth
seeing — the good things are very, good. The high
prices make sense too, they eliminate a lot of
people who would find the film impossible.
And there is an intermission during which you
can loosen your belt. ^
Perhaps it was bad timing to have .seen "Cop-
peUa" presented by the Sadlers Wells Theatre
Ballet on Monday night. Because Elaine Fifield,
the teen-age prima ballerina was so sprightly and
so happy to be dancing. Add to this that she was.
superlative in technique. With the S-W Theatre
troupe, there was not the serious heaviness of
TALES OF HOFFMAN, or perhaps the sense ol
dedication that the Ponteyn brand of Sadlers Wellj
would present.
Pifield was fun as well as excellent, and at times
during HOFFMAN, I wisher somebody there would
relax and let loose. But no, heavy hand upon
heavy hand.
Prof Flays Mystics
"Everywhere today people are
moving backward to 14th century
ritual and escape into the old ab-
solute," according to Professor Car-
penter, speakin;^ in an informal ad-
dress on the escape into Mysticism
at Hillel House on Wednesday night.
He said that the death of optimism
of the l&th century hlas caused man
to return to the past. Survival does
not lie in this, but in the develop-
men of the ego.
Prof. Carpenter's contentions
brought forth a lively discussion in
which General MacArthur was cit-
ed as a . contemporary example of
this form of escapism.
The Volution of the problem (4
escaping into mysticism, was stated
by Prof. Carpenter, lies in a trenil
towards naturalism and rationalism.

fINAL ALL VARSITY AID_REPORT
Year's Campaigning
Brings $8,100 Total
The final report on last year's All Varsity Aid Campaigm
has been released to The Varsity bySyd Wax, IV Meds,
chairman of the campaign. The complete details of this
report can be found under various beading's on this page. _
The campaign raised $8100 at this pus contributed, even U indirecUy,
university last year. The purpose of
All Varsity Aid was to send prac-
tical help to three universities in
south-eastern Asia — the University
of Delhi, the University of Jamia
(near Delhi), and the University of
Sindh.
These universities were selected
with the assistance of the Interna'
tional Secretary of International
Student Service. The arrival of the
material sent from this university
was sapervised by Miss Elizabeth
Potham. tiie Regional Director for
ISS of S.E. Asia.
I Because ISS would play only
•;mall pai't in the campaign,
What Went Where
i
For the $3 444 spent, on equipment and shipping of material for
All-Varsity Aid, the value obtained amounted to $10,330. The items sent
to the universities ol Sindh, Jamia, and Delhi are as follows;
The University of Sindh:
^3 microscopes, valued at $4,000, were reconditioned for $122
by Bauch and Lomb Co.. who paclied the microscopes for overseas
shipping and transported them to the ocean port at no e.\tra cost to
AVA. The micoscopes will be useful for medical, biological, and zoo-
logical service, as well as for teaching purposes.
— instiuipents, valued at $1,000. were donated by the Engineering
Society from their surplus stoclcs. They consisted chiefly of draughting
equipment made up in kits.
-boolis, valued at $1,500 were donated by professors and students
of the university. Of the many hundreds of books received, only t«;n-
>iical boolts of recent vintage and in good condition were sent, iney
were sorted by a committee appointed by Dean McFarlane 01 the
Faculty of Medicine.
These books were packaged by the T. Eaton Co. who sent a trucK
and driver to collect them, put the books in special
tainers for shipment, shipped the books to Montreal, a"»"|=*
the foreign documents, releases, and customs dockets, all without any
charge to AVA.
Sindh is primarily an engineering '"^"'"'^^ ^''^ff si°ndh

was Dr. A. B. A. Haleem, Vice Chancellor of the university,

This complicated Bia^e is the

plan for help to Soulh-East Asia
was marfie in the equipment pic-
tured above. The ^'arsily is un-
able to guarantee that the picture

there
was a suggestion last year that it
be carried but independently by the
University of Toronto. However, to
avoid a "break with ISS, this sug-
gestion was not carried out, and it
was agreed t-^ f:Iv? ISS $3000 of the
profits for theu' co-ojerRtion.
$3444 was .spent on equipment and
packaging. The funds on hand,
amounting to $600. will go towards
the new fund to be created by the
charity campaign of this year.
After some discussion, every facul-
ty, college and group in the cam- 1
to AVA. Various dances and profit-
paying events donated certain per-
centages of their proceeds te AVA.
The AVA committee sponsored a
program of special events to raise
funds, including an AU-Varsity
Christmas Tree, a Ja2Z Concert, a
Skating Party, and a- liockey game
between the Blue and White teama
of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The AU-Varsity Aid committee
was formed of representatives from
all the campus groups. Each repre-
sentative stimulated the fund-rais-
ing activities in his own group, as
well as helping to organize the par-
ticular AU-Varsity Aid features ol
the campaign.
However, the campaign did not
proceed without controversy. Weelt
after week, the pages of The Var-
sity contained letters for apd
against AVA. and editorials explain-
ing the ideology behind AVA and
criticising student cynics and others
who felt the campaign to be futile.
, But the result of this controversy
was to make the whole university
conscious of the importance of AVA
— ooDScious to the tune of $8100.

Those
Who
Helped
One of the maliv reasons for tlie
success nf the AU Varsity Aid Cam
paign was the excellent co-operation
of both university olticials and
various business firms. This resulted
in a saving or donation of $6,88r
Syd Wax, IV Mcds. chairman of
AVA devoted a full week In June
to contactlpg different firms and
arranging discounts. -Wax said that
the helpfulness of those firms and
their Killingness to give discounts
greatly facilitated the shipment of
the materials, and substantially
increased the amount of the dona-
tion.
- president Sidney Smith was a
ereat help in cutting red . tape on
the campus. Wax said, and the co-

For the Golden Gael^of Queen's
University have reattied the end of
the rope — one more loss means that
another season's, hopes for the title
will vanish into the misty air that
seems to hang perennially over the
long-suffering Kingston football
fans. And Frank Tyndal and com-
pany aim to do something about it.
Unhappily, this state of events
occurs on Uic exact date that the
league-leading Varsity 'Blues en-
train for Kingston to do battle with
the Tricolour, and it will require an
all-out effort on the part of the
Masterson -coached crew to stop
the "back to wair'effprt that will
be put up by the Tyndal Twelve.
' Leading the Tricolour in their
last ditrfsh stand against Variity
will be baokfielders McKelvey,
Bahner, Bell, Mellor apd Mcllveen;
MiKelvey and" Bahner in particular
will be the ones to stop, as t*ie re
ports from the Kingston camp
seem to indicate that these boys are
playing great football and are car-
rying the main load for the Quern's
team^
By BRUCE MACDOVALD
McGill's Intramural track meet was held on Monday
but de.spite the good weather, there were very few good
performances. McGiU won the Intercollegiate title last year
«t the meat which was held on their home grounds. They
•cored fewcvr firsts than Var.sity, but made up the difference
on seconds and thirds. Varsity and McGill have been the
only winners of the Intercoll championship since time
immemorial. ,
There were double winners in all track fevents but,
except for the 440. they do not compare with the times in
the Varsitv Interfaculty meet. Jack King won the 100 in
10.8 and the 220 in 23.9. Varsity times in these Wednesday
were 10.3 and 23.6. Dave Winship won the 440 in 53.T and
the 880 in 2:04.3. Kofmel's 440 here We'Snesday was only
B4.6. but he did 53.6 in a workput yesterday. Murray
Caziuk's time in the half was also better than the McGill
man's, 2:03.8.
Farrell Hyde won the mile in 4:57.0 and the 3-mile in
17:20. In these it can only be assumed that there was no
one pushing him; Hyde is a better runner than that.
In the hurdles the winning times were 17.5 in the 120
fiighs and 28.4 in the 220 lows. Bazos' times in these were
J6.4 and 28.1 respectively
Things were much better in the field events. Lionel
Whitman put the shot 41'0", which Bob Westlake'Will have
to go some to beat. McCulloch's javelin throw was 163'9'*,
which might win in a weak year in this department, but
not this year.
Blair's broad jump of 19'11*/^" was a little better than
our boy Ron Carr did Wednesday, as was Blair's high jump
of 5'il 5/8'*'. Sliwka's pole vault of ll'G" looks like a sure
winner, unless Vic Obeck feels he shouldn't miss football
practices. Track meets are even worse than smoking to
coaches faced with bad years. -
Maybe the Intercollegiate champs are overconfident
and are taking things easy. If the^y are, and don't do much
better than they did last" week, somebody's going to take
their crown away# (not that we didn't know that before).
Having the meet on home grounds will give Toronto quite
an advantage.
Gee, coach, maybe I shouldn't have written this. Our
guys might get overconfident too. ,
HappUy for the Varsity crcj
most of the Tricolour's line ha-T
graduated to the world beyouJ
leaving only Charters, Suksi, Vn'M
coe and WadeU. but reinforced J
the stalwarts of last year's InteJ
mediate team, the Queen'.s iinT
seems to be the bright spot of iiJ
'51 edition of the Gaels. This wouJ
seem to point to an all-out batiij
between the two lines, which alwajJ
makes for thrilling foottoall conj
tests.
Starting at quarter for the BhiJ
will be 6*4A" ht^h Alex Lawsa
who is fresh from caUing a nejrl
perfect game last Saturday. At \tm
and right halves will be Bill MiiW
faiLme and Bill Bgwley jcspectiveiil

er, and Varsity fans' favcurite, wil|

hig to Oneschuk or John Adams btM
cause of his lame foot.
Ray Yakasovich will proljahl|

Jim Butler and Bruce Miles at ri«hl|
and left insides. John Evans
Joe Harris wiU line up at left ;
right middles; and Al Brown
Pete Hynbida will complet-e thf

The University of Toronto Soccer
squad travels east this week for
two gaones in the Intercollegiate
loop. The Blues are entered in both
sections of the college league. The
Eastern section consists of McGiU
and Royal Military College, and in
the Western section, the Blues meet
OAC and UWO. So far this season
the Varsity squad has played two
games, both victories over OAC.
The Blues will field the same
team this afternoon in Kingston as
they used against the Aggies Wed-
nesday except that Bob Antoni will
be unable to play because of in-
juries suffered in Wednesday's con-
test. Antoni's centre forward spot
will be filled this weekend by new-
comer Jose Atucha.
The Blues are taking along ade-
quate substitutes this year to avoid
the unfortunate situation encoun-
tered last season in Montreal. After
losing three players via the injury
route in the KMC game which cut
the squad to eleven, four more
Blues were knocked out during the
McGill game and the Varsity team
finished up the game playing seven
men against eleven.
The Blues lost the Blackwood
trophy to the Redmen last year
and are out to bring the silverware
back home. The RMC squad should-
n't offer too much trouble, but if
Varsity expects to win this year
they will have to come out on top
in Montreal on Saturday afternoon

Wallace's retirement after fif-
teen years as principal of Queen's
ends a long and distinguished edu-
cational-career. A speciaUst in
geology, he. was the first scien-
tist to hold the post of principal.
He came to Queen's after eight
years as president of the Univer-
sity of Alberta. During his term
of office at Alberta, he establish-
ed amongst other things, the re-
nowned Banff School of Fine Aits,
and he continued, through travel
to maintain the Alberta tradition
of bringing the university to the
people.
Previous to his service at Al-
berta. Wallace had been a geolo-
gist for the Manitoba govern-
ment and at the University of
Manitoba, spending much time in
the mining areas of northern
Manitoba. His variety of experi-
ence gave him both a source of
tolerance and insight, and he was
an jnd^atigable worlter.
To Queen's, Principal Wallace
added Schools of Nursing and of
Health and Physical Education,
the Department of Industrial Re-
lations and the Institute of Local
Government. One of his great-
est achievements was the Summer
School of Pine Arts, a centre each
year for about 600 students inter-
ested in art, ballet, drama, pup-
petry, music, choral singing and
other allied subjects. /
Personally, a man of simple
habits, he made his deepest im-
pression by his kindliness and un-
oersUnding. his fearlessness and
sincerity. Though many of his
accomplishments were directed
along practical lines, he was a
firm believer in the humanities.
"The keynote of liberal educa-
tion." he once said, "is human-
ism, but the highest utility is the
advancement of mankind."
Wallace achieved wide fame.
He is nineteen times an honorary
doctor, and throughout his c&reer
was the object of innumerable
eulogies regarding his ability and
the quality of his service.
He also received from the stu-
dents-their wholehearted respect.
His office door was always open
to receive them. They gave him
their final farewell recently when
thijy gathered under his windows,
led by pipers and cheerleaders,
to give him a rousing cheer.
Dr. Wnllace will remain in King-
ston. He has jus: been appointed
by Premier Frost as consultant
on university matters to the pro-
vincial government.

Gael Council Raises Fee-
Kingston (CUP) — Queen's Uni-
versity authorities have authoriz-
ed an increase in student council
fees of $1.50 per student. Though
the authorization came too late to
be collected during registraUon
this year, it is hoped to have it
collected by Christmas.
Limitations of the budget for
student activities last year caus-
ed the Alma Mater Society.
Queen's student council, to witi>-
draw from the National Federa-

the twenty cent per capita fee.
However. Queen's representative
at the NFCUS confrence reported
that if the raise was obtained.
Queen's would be able to return to
a full membership in the organizt^
tion next year.

LETTER FROM MCGILL
A JBaiunccd Picture
The Following Letter is Reprinted from the McGill Daily.
A Reply to The Varsity's Editorial on Fraternities, we
Reprint it Here in Lieu of Comment from our own Campus
on the Subject.
Rome Tomorrow
Not all the good ideas, conceived at the University of
Toronto, are still-born. Last spring's plans for freshman
orientation,' however ambitious they may appear in ret-:
rospect, are in the process of being partially implemented.
How to orient a freshman has been in the past a prob-
lem too vast and perplexing for the university as a whole 'to
deal v/ith. Last fall, a series of lectures were given with the
purpose of introducing the university to the freshman. The
success of these lectures was limited, as was theif atten-
dance. They were good lectures, given by eminent men in
the university, but except for the first ones, too few fresh-
men made use of them.
Last spring, college and faculty representatives met to
discuss the possibilities of undertaking a freshmen orienta-
tion program' on an all-university level. Not just to introduce Editor. The Varsity:
students in one faculty to those in other faculties, but to jt is a small point, but I
Editor, The McGiU Daily:
We are writing this letter in answer to the edi-
torial recently printed in The Varsity, student
newspaper of the Univetstty of Toronto, and re-
printed in the Monday issue of The" Daily. We do
£0 as it is our conviction that, were a more bal-
anced picture presented, those who are most con-
cerned in considering the pros, and cons, of fra- _
ternity life would be able to so not only through
prejudice drawn from hearsay, but with the actual
facts before them.
Th^ writer Insists on claiming that fraternities
have no part in the democratic way of life. Is this
because he feels that only those things congenial
to the overwhelming majority should be tolerated?
We beg to differ. It is surely one of the chief as-
sumptions of the principles of freedom, that even
those unfox'tunate enough to be in the minority
should be allowed to pursue theii- activities. As
with every other minority organization, fraternities
have to combat the disapproval of the majority.
The fact that this is so does not mean th&t they
wisli to exclude themselves from the activities of
that majority, but that only by their very" nature,
the fact that in so many cases their members have
friendships and interests beyond their "tight little
groups" is ignored.
We should like to know what objections can be
raised by the "mature mind operating in a demo-
cratic society" against provision for "social con-
tacts for a group of congenial students in different
faculties and years." Since presumably the individ-
uals concerned are possessed of this "mature mind,"
they wSl be able to see beyond the tension caused
by the inevitable pressure brought to bear upon
both members and rushee at this time. Because,
despite this tension, much of which can be avoid-
ed by a saner approach to the business pf rushing,
it is a period in which many valuable and inter-
esting contacts can be made and enjoyed, ev^iitf
If a fraternity is not eventually joined.
If one inquired into the rushing principles of any!
one fraternity, he would find that individualis
Is stressed rather than discouraged.^ The writer!
should not think that an individuality is swamper I
merely because it has the good fortune to be siu-. I
romided by others congenial to itself.
The writer himself is the first to admit that*
fraternities indulge in the luxury of high ideals
and it is noticeable that he has provided no con.
crete basis for his statement that these ideals are
not carried out. He has contended himself with
dismissing them. We only ask those who wish to
get a fair picture of fraternity life should inves-
tlgate the amount of work done by fraternal or.
ganizations in the field of social welfare alone.
It might also be in order to remind the reader
that when campus activities are m need of student
assistance, it has beenuproved in the past that
fraternities can be counted on to give their whole.'
hearted support, as a body, not merely as in.
dividuals.
We are flattered by the writer's supposition that
fraternities constitute a "privileged group". Wb
should not have thought from his article that he
considered tliis to be the case. We should like,
however, to stress that our grounds for agreeing
with him are far different from those on which
he bases his argument. Contrary to the expecta.
tions of their detractors, fraternities, on
prisingly frequent number of occasions, have thfe'
good fortune to believe In those ideals which ha;
been set before them. The fact that they might not
always live up to these is hardly a just reason for

Record Of Wins Still Intact
Bobby Dale Leads Scoring
By DAVID ROTENBERG
Kingston — The University of Toronto Blues extended their unjjeaten streak to seven
here Saturday, as they trounced the winless Queen's squad by a 26-2 score. Led by fresh-
man Bobby Dale, who turned in a three touchdown performance, the Toronto team were
masters in every department as they ran up their biggest score in two seasons.
The biggest difference between the two teams was on the line, where the Varsity team
completely outplayed its opponents. The Blue front wall bowled over the Queensmen on
almost every play, making gaping hole^ for their backfielders and breaking up the ma-
jority of the Gaels' plays before they got underway.
He Scores
■♦ Tne only department in which
the home town squad could keep up
with the Blues was in the kicking.
Johnny Adams did most of the
hoofing for Varsity and turned in a
good job, although it was not up to
the standard of Al Haig who is stUl
bothered by a leg injury. Don Ball
started out doing the booting for
the Gaels but the majority of it
was handled by Chuck Ramsden,
who kicked both of the Queen's
points. Ramsden's kicks were long
but were quite low, so that the
Varsity receivers had the ball be
fore the opposing ends could get
down the field.
The Queen's attack was hamper
ed by the loss of Captain Harry
Lampman early in the game. Lamp,
man broke his hand after making i
good catch on one of Wally Mellor'i
passes, and retired to hospital

terceptions. Lampman returned late
in the game to try and instill some
life into his squad, but with the
cast on his left hand was ineffec-
tive.
The Blues struck early in the
game, and except for about five
minutes in the second quarter were
far superior to their opponents. The
Gaels took the opening kickoff but
two plays later Johnny Evans broke
tlu-ough to pick up a loose ball in
the Queen's backfield. Bill McPar-
lane and Steve Oneschuk carried
from midfield to the Queen's 17
on three running plays and Bill
Bewley took It all the way on two
tries. Jimmy Bell converted.
The Gaels were able to do noth-
ing offensively and the Blues were
stopped more by their own penalties
than by the Queen's defenders. The
Varsity squad had the ball three
more times early in the first quar-
ter and each time made their yards
only to have the plays called back.
Two holding penalties and one for
clipping prevented the Blues from
hitting the score sheet again in

quired to sign the regular state loy-
alty oath.
the initial stanza.
Late in the second quarter Bew-
ley intercepted a long Queen's pass
at midfield. Bobby Dale crashed
through centre for twelve yards and
a first down. The Gaels veteran
centre Jim Charters lost his teni'
per and threw a punch at Dale with
all three officrals almost on top
of him. It cost the Queensmen 15
yards and put the Blues in scor-
ing position. Lawson threw one
down the middle to Bell on the
Queen's 13. and on the next play
Dale eluded two potential tacklers
and went over standing up for his
first major. Stu Kennedy broke in
to block Bell's convert attempt, the
first time that Jimmy has missed
this year.
The Blues' third TD early In the
second half was set almost a dupli-
cate of the previous one. Lawson
Haig, who was brought down on the
rive, and Dale carried It over from
there. Again the Queensmen broke
through and blocked the convert at-
tempt.
With the third quarter only half
over the Varsity squad struck agahi ■
and it looked like the game would
be turned into a rout. The TD was
set up by one of the most spectacu-
lar running plays of the season.
Bewley crashed over centre for 15
and as he was brought down he
lateraled to Oneschuk who had
swept around the end. Steve car-
ried for another fifteen jiards be-
fore the bewildered Queen's defend-
ers caught up with him at their 25,
Dale broke loose on the next play
and went over standing up for his
third major of the afternoon. This
time Bill made sure as his convert
went high over the crossbar.
The Varsity attack bogged down
in the last quarter as the Gaels be-
gan showing a little life. The
Queensmen finally gave the home
town fans something to cheer aA>out
as they drove from midfield deep
into Varsity territory, but a holding
penalty stopped their march and
they had to settle for a single.
Varsity took over on their own
25 and in five running plays by
Adams, Dale and McFarlane were
down to the Queen's 25. But the
attack stalled ttiere and Bell kick-
ed a third down field goal, his third
in as many games.
It is difficult to pick out any in-
dividual stars for the Blues. They
all played a good game, and more
mportant they played as a team.
Their game Saturday was one of the
finest in all round team play that
they have turned in in the last
couple of season. The linemen were
charging throughout, and the ends,
led by Brown, did the majority of
the work in breaking up the Queen's
plays. In the backfield, Dale's three
touchdown performance was the
highUght, but equally important was
the fine running of teammates Bew-
ley and McParlane, and the good
defensive play of Bob Garside.
For the Gaels, Ross McKelvey
was by far the best. Whenever he
got away he really burned up the
yards, but he had trouble getting*
started as he had very little block-
ing in front of him. Atwood also
turned in a good rumiing per-
formance in a losing cause and
Toni Amoldi was the pick of the
Queen's line.

Seminar may be held in Ceylon,
That was the site chosen as most
desirable by the annual conference

Canada (ISS), held last weekend
at McMaster University.
Ceylon was chosen the most suit-
able country in the Far East, where
the conference felt the next sem-
inar should be held. Should Ceylon
not prove feasible. Israel, Jugoslav-
la, and Italy were considered and
preferred in that order.
At any rate. It is not likely that
tJie seminar will be held In Canada,
as it was this summer. The first
ference was that It be held on ah
overseas site.
The seminar, an annual project
of Canadian ISS, is a four or five-
week, meeting of students from all
over the world, designed to Increase
understanding between them. At
the 1951 seminar, held near Ottawa,
80 students from 11 different coun-
tries (including Pakistan, Germany,
Israel and Fhiland) were present.
Kaoh year the seminar is given
a general subject around which it
builds its lectures and discussions.
In 1950 it was "The Crisis of West-

The conference felt that too great
1 emphasis had been placed in
previous years on catering to the
Arts, that is, stressing the Human-
ities and Social Sciences in the
program. It decided an effort should
be made in include scientific and
technical students, probably by the
use of study groups, at which stu-
dents in tlie same course from dif-
ferent areas could compare notes.
At one point it was suggested
that seminars be held every other
year, because of the difficulty of
finding enough money to finance
them. (The proposed budget for
the Ceylon seminar is $50,000.)
However, it was decided to keep
them annual affairs.

ISS Conferees Discuss
Visit of Soviet Studeni
In a close second vote, following a split decision,
annual ISS conference at McMaster yesterday defeated:
was almost a vote of censure on NFCUS for its withdrfli
of an invitation to a group of Russian students ■ to J
Canada. |
The motion was introduced unex-
pected late Saturday night, and be-
cause of the hour was tabled until
Sunday rooming:. Throughout that
night and the following day. it was
a subject for heated discussion, for-
mal and informal, between what
amounted to the two rival camps of
CUP Says . . .
Montreal (CUP)— Leave it to
finance experts to find a way of
beating the high cost of cigaret-
tes. A coop composed of mem-
bers of. the staff and griaduate
school of McGiirs School of Com-
merce, manages to save each
member an estimated 25 cents on
cigarettes. Each chipped in a dol-
lar for a sleek cigaratte rolling
machine, and all have become ex-
perts by now, a McGill Daily re-
noted.
At first the janitor of the com-
merce building was given the job
of making the cigarettes in re-
turn for free smokes. But he could
not keep up with the demand, so
members of the cooperative now
oil their own, paying one cent for
each cigarette they consume.
"The group stands ready to of-
fer advice to any students wish-
ing to set up their own cigarette
rolling machine," one of the mem-
bers said.
It would appear that the students
aren't as smart, though.
The results of a test on Cana-
dian culture, given by Professor
A. L. Phelps, of the McGill Eng-
lish Department, showed a general
lack of knowledge of Canadiana,
Phelps reported. Twenty ques-
tions were included in the test giv-
en to freshmen students only.
The results showed poets to be
more popular than novelists, while
not one third of the students could
name three Canadian composers
or historians. Thirty-five percent
failed the test, 55 percent were
average with ten percent show-
ing above-average knowledge.
Another revelation of the test
was the fact that freshmen turn
to the news page in a paper first,
editorials second, and sports third,
they said.
Phelps gives a course in Cana-
dian literature for first year stu-
denst. He said that the course
should increase the attention stu-
dents pay to Canadian writers.

300 Lbs. Of Malice
By GRANT GIBSON
Sometimes The Varsity can hand
out a really interesting assign-
ment. One that an energetic re-
porter can get his teeth into and
work up some enthusiasm for.
Last Friday one of these rare tasks
'as given to me.
"Go!" the editor said. "Go to
Queen's. Get photographs. Pho-
tograph the Cheerleaders, Drum
Majorette, Bear." (Be careful of
that spelling, please, Mr. typeset-
ter.)
On my word of honour, that is
just what I was told to do.
The next morning, bright, early,
and loaded with spirit, my camera
and I set out.
On reaching Kingston, I at once
tackled the Drum Majorette. (Dear
readers. I humbly beg your par-
don. You reahze of course I
tackled my assignment.) In due
course the Queen's Cheerleaders
were suitably recorded on cellu-
loid, and their names and ad-
dresses taken. The latter act was
only an afterthought, as there are
times when members of The Var-
sity staff visit the Limestone City
aed such information is of course
rather useful.
The Drum Majorette and tne
Bear were next.
I approached the comely lass
with considerable trepidation; my
mother tells me that I am the shy
type, and I asked the Majorette to
nose with Boo Hoo vmth. the
bear. Apparently she didn't bear
the definite article ff^ ^'efore I
knew it or had time to duck, the
colour had risen in her face ^
she had aimed a swat at me. A5
Toronto was getting ready to score
again, I left in a hurry to get a
picture.
Later with the kind help of a
stalwart Scot Drum Major I ap-
proached Miss Peggy Dyer again.
(That is her name men, write it
down quickly before it bums a
hole in the paper.) He was big
and brave, and he obviously had
a way with the fair ladies,
short order I had my picture, two
of them.
As Peggy posed she related tills
sad news. That shuffling planti-
grade King Boo Hoo the Eighth,
proud mascot of Queen's Univer-
sity, has been disposed of. It
seems that he bit several of the
cheerleaders and developed an
awkward disposition. You can no
doubt sympathize with the atti-
tude held toward nearly ttiree
hundred pounds of nasty temper.

The third annual Homecoming
Weekend which starts next Friday
night with a stadium show, will be
the biggest and best yet, according
to the Blue and White Society who
are promoting the weekend. Ar-
rangements have been made for the
stadium show, a float parade on
Saturday morning, entertainment
at the rugby game, and a dance
with six orchestras for Saturday
night.
Also this coming week is tweeper-
week, whatever that means.
The float parade committee arc
emphasizing quality rather than
quantity this year. To give the smal-
ler groups a better chance, entries
are limited to 200 feet in length.
Medicine is out to win the Alum-
nae Cup again this year after the
success of their obstretrical super-
market last year. Forestry. Art and
Archaeology. Architecture and Skule
are getting together what they each
promises to be the most sensational
entry ever produced in the Alumnae
Cup competition. The judges for
the float parade have not yet been
announced.
Cheerleaders, grads, and a pair of
famous visitors will spark 'the sta-
dium show on Friday night. This
■colossal, stupendous show will be
one of the greatest things to ever
hit the campus," in the words of
publicity director Hugh Niblock.
New words have been written for
the song "Poilow the Blues," which
was introduced by the Blue and
White Society when it was first
formed by Joe Fotts. At the Queen's
game very few of the students kiiew
the words to the song when it was
played by the Blue and White Band.
Coach Bob Masterson and the
University of Toronto Blues, just
returned from a successful engage-
ment at the Richardson Memorial
Stadium in Kingston, will be pre-
sented to the audience at the Sta-
dium Show, and will receive pres-
ents from the Blue and White So-
ciety.
On Saturday night the whole of
Hart House will be open for a Rug-
by dance and open house, also spon-
sored by the Blue and White So-
ciety. There will be bands in the
upper and lower gymns, the east
common, debates and music rooms,
and a cabaret style-orchestra in
the lunch room. Tickets for this
dance go- on sale today at faculties
and colleges as well as at Hart
House.
On Sunday bheie will be services
held by the various religious de-
nominations at the University. In-
formation as to place and time for
these services will be carried in The
Varsity during the coming week.

The Hart House farm at Cale-

of an International Relations

Vic, the group included students
from both Arts and Science facul-
ties, and graduate schools. Pro-
fessor C. B. Macpherson of the De-

and Mr. G. Bennett of the History
Department gave faculty support
to the project, something new in
the history of the IRC.
The topic scheduled for the
weekend was "The effect of the
split between Russia and the
United States on the smaller na-
tions," to be discussed in three
sections, Asia, Europe and Can-
i. Discussion got widely off
topic at times, as members be-
came particularly vehement over
such issues as American foreign
policy, and the advisabiUty of
Western interference in Asiatic
wars and disturbances.
No definite conclusions were
reached by the seminar group. The
main achievement of the weekend
was a general airing out of thorny
issues, and controversial prob-
lems. Leftist thioking received a
good hearing at all meetings, but
no one political philosophy pre-
dominated.
Time off was taken for wiener
roasts, walks, and real work
around the farm property. Mem-
bers planted numerous trees, built
a moderately steady fence, and fin-
ished off the weekend with a
plunge in the icy pond.
Official count for the group
came to about thirty students.

Council Fees
Are Raised
At Queen's
Kingston— (CUP)— Queen's Uni-
versity authorities have approved a
raise in student council fees by $1.50
per student. Though the approval
came after registration had ended,
it will have to be collected by No-
vember fii'st through the year or-
ganizations.
This is the llrst student council
f^e raise since 1930, though operat-
ing costs have doubled, George Ains-
lee. treasurer of the Alma Mater
Society, Queen's student council,
explained. In addition the AMS has
operated at a deficit for the past
three years, using up the surplus
obtained during the war years when
spending was curtailed, he contin-
ued.
The added levy will be used to
cover only existing activities, in-
cluding the Queen's Journal, under-
graduate paper, the two iaands and
AMS operating expenses. All three
had large deficits last year. With
the new fee raise, Ainslee said,
these deficits will be covered for
the future.
Any students refusing to pay his
fee will be referred to the AMS
court for trial and possible fine.

total aloinic war between ea,st

he said.
Prof. Fennell noted the ans^i
of several groups of young
to what they feel is the disaster
situation they are in.
Firstly, there were the athei;
existentialists, who "choose to (j
pair in the face of the final nie-
inglessness of human life."
found in this a "stoic heroism."
Secondly, there was a group
young people whose only desire ^
to emigrate to Canada, where ij,
felt there is still hope, politic
and culturally. They were impre
ed with tiie buoyancy, hope and
tality of^e Canadian students {,\
had met.
Thirdly, there were those
placed their hope in the creation
a federation of European sta
"But nationalism is rooted so d-
ly that young people are frustra
by the slowness of their elders,"
said.
Fourthly, there was bhe Christ'
group, which felt that federa
would be desirable, but not :
thing on which ultimate hope c-
be based.
Prof. FenneU challenged the i
gates to find in their philosop'^'
of life and religious beliefs an
swer to speak to European y-
in their plight.
GIRAUDOUX
Madwoman
"A fantastic fable" is how direc-
tor Robert Gill defines the sea-
son's first Hart House production,
Giraudoux's "The Mad Woman of
Chaillot."
"The play is definitely a com-
edy, a fable told in simple terms,
but one that has no political
meaning," says Mr. Gill. "It is
a tale of good and bad people,
through which a streak of fantas-
tic logic winds, the implication be-
ing that only a madwoman can
save mankind."
The characters, in their simpli-
fication, stand for the good and
evil factors of society. They rep-
resent either the Powerful Peo-
ple of the world, and are called the
President, Inspector, Broker, Bar-
on, or they stand for the Little
People, such as the Rag-picker,
the Waiter, and the Street-sing-
er. The four madwomen, con-
vinced individualists, become al-
lies of the Little People of the
world.
The plot centers around the
Madwoman, who, living in a
By ALICE LUKACS
dream-world of her own, awakens
and realizes that people are domi-
nated by powerful evil forces. She
then sets out to destroy them, clos-
ing the trap-door of her cellar on
the powerful ones. All this makes
for a hilarious comedy, according
to Robert Gill, which was one of
his main reasons for selecting it as
the opening production. The play
is also a new one which balances
the program of Hart House Thea-
tre for the coming year, the other
plays being of a less modern na-
ture.
This play of Giraudoux ran on
Broadway, and was staged in
Canada before, but it is an orig-
inal production as far as local
groups are concerned.
Entirely new sets were designed
by 'a student, 'Jane Carson, IV
Trinity, for the two straight acts.
The play is supposed -to "take
place to-morrow," and its fantas-
tic nature is stressed throughout
by Director Gill and the cast.
An all-student cast of 25 is head-
ed by Ann Murray in a difficult
principal role. She, has the co"
plicated task of combining m
ness and strange logic, thus c
veying Giraudoux's picture ot
confused world. This part deman
a great deal of emotion, as t
madwoman is essentially a se"
tive, dreamy person. One of
most touching scenes in the pi"
occurs when she tells Pierre,
wants to commit suicide, her
pie notions of life, until the bo
in love with life again.
The principal male part is pi'
ed by George McCowan, who
the raisonneur of the play.
Inspector, who would tear Pa
down to get oil, is portrayed

SCIENCE NOTES
Kon - Tiki
Anvone who has read the wonderful story of the
Kon-Tiki expedition knows about pior Heyerdahl's
theory of the origin of the Polynesian civilization.
The book is more an adventure story than a racial
. theorj', and Heyerdahl does not give a thorough
exposition of his ideas. However, he explains the
niain lines of his reasoning.
He says that at the comparatively recent time
of the first immigrations to the South Sea Islands,
that is, one wave (according to him) around 500
AD. and one around 1100 A.D., there was no
flourishing stone age civilization in the Old World.
The Polynesians, although highly intelligent, were
a stone age people, and therefore could hardly have
come from the west.
Then he links Inca legends of a highly civilized,
white-skmned, bearded race who were supposed to
have lived long ago in Peru and had mysteriously
disappeared (last seen heading west), with similar
logends among Polynesians about their white-
skinned, god-like ancestors who had come from a
far-off land beyond the sea. In both traditions,
these white demigods were led by the Sun God,
called Kon-Tiki in South America, and Tiki in
Polynesia. This. Heyerdahl said, was the immigra-
ion of 500 A.D. The second wave, of a dark-
inned people who mixed with Kon-Tiki's race,
he traces to British Columbia.
Supporting the theory about Kon-Tikl's followers,
he points out various culture parallels between
Polynesia and Peru. The mysterious stone colossi
on Easter Island, "with pointed beards and white
man's features," very much resembled, according
to him, similar giant images in Peru. The ingenious
method of erecting these without machinery was
the same. He also cited plants found in Peru which
had allegedly been taken to Polynesia. Furthermore,
the early Polynesians had a knowledge of naviga-
tion and astronomy and a type of calendar which
Heyeixlahl felt was superior to anything they could
have learned among the Melanesian or Malayan
people to the west. Then the author and his com-
panions proved that crossing the Pacific on a
primitive raft was possible, if not easy.
This all sounds very convincing, especially when
backed up by the persuasiveness of Heyerdahl's style,
and the dashing glamour of the whole undertak-
ing. However, it is only fair that the stick-in-the-
mud old anthropologists who reject the idea should
be pemiitted to present their cose. And the fact is,
that after a run-in with the U. of T. Anthropology
' Department, Kon-Tiki emerged looking somewhat
battered. Most anthropologists question some of the
very foundations of Heyerdahl's theory. First, they
say that it has not been conclusively proven that
there were any migrations before the generally
' accepted date, tentatively set as somewhere in the
' ^welfth century AX>. He apparently based his other
date <500 A.D.) only on the natives' recital of past
chiefs — aout as scientifically dependable as Old
Testament genealogy. Secondly, they flatly deny
Heyerdahl's assertion that tliere was no large group
"n Southeast Asia still rtlechanically at the stone
!v\ i^^*' deceived into thinlcing that the
fiL ' of Hindu and Moslem civilization pre-
yed all over. However, there were many large
ne age peoples in India, Ceylon and Indonesia,
well as the Melanesians and Micronesians.
The same authorities are equally dubious aoout
the existence of this mysterious white race, of the
type roughly classed as Caucasoid, in South
America, where nobody has ever found traces of
any aboriginal racial type other than the so-called
New Worid Mongoloid. The Polynesians are a
widely varied mixture of Mongoloid, Caucasoid, and
Negroid types, and it is hard to see how they could
come from a country in which only one type is
found. It is also difficult to imagine the whole vast
South Sea 'Island area being populated by the few
isolated rafts which might survive such a voyage.
On the other hand, there still exist in Indonesia
and all through the Malay region seafaring groups
containing all the racial types found in Polynesia,
speaking a language from the same linguistic stock,
having many common traits of mythology, religion
and folklore, using similar tools, making similar
carvings and amulets, sailing similar outrigger
canoes, and within an easily practicable distance
of the Polynesian islands. There is evidence that
all the various peoples in the Polynesian triangle,
enormous as it is, came indirectly from the main-
land through Micronesia to Tahiti, and from there
spread out to coimtless other islands.
Even the remarkable Easter Island images are
related to the art work done in the Maicjuesan
group, and there is no evidence whatsoever of their
having been built by a mysterious white race who
learned the skill in Peru. Since all the human
remains -of the original race in Easter Island are
skeletons, it would be hard to determine t^heir
colour. The method used for erecting tlie images
is indeed the same one as that used in South
America. The natives dragged the Image, feet first,
up an inclined plane of earth and stone, and
pushed it over the steep side into a hole prepared
as a foundation. The point is, however, that this
identical method, which is really the only possible
one. has been used all over the world wherever
primitive peoples have wished to up-end heavy
blocits of stone or wood. It was used in building
Stonehenge, and in erecting North American totem
poles. It has been witnessed, within the last thirty
years, in Madagascar. ,
All the plants cited by Heyerdahl as having been
carried from South America are found in Indonesia.
Furthermore^ there is every reason to credit this
mainland people with considerable knowledge of
navigation and astronomy, and with using a good
calendar system — quite unlike the Inca one. The
only remarkable similarity in the Sun God legends,
since reverence for the sun is a common factor
among all primitive societies, is the coincidence of
the names Tiki and Kon-Tiki. But it might be
pointed out that Tiki-Tiki is also a place name in
Malaya and that Maori warriors of New Zealand
wore 'owlish-faced little amulets called Tiki's.
In short we have on the one hand a remote
possibility, weakly supported, and on the other a
strong probabiUty, upheld by geography as well
numerous culture checks. Heyerdahl hunself said
that all his voyage could prove was that such a
trip was possible -not that it necessarily happened.
Maybe he could defend his theory against all these
arguments. However, one can t help wondering if
maybe everyone is out
Heyerdahl.

Crazj Camera
rt }uart goes to show you — on a Queen's weekend, yoo can't even
expect the camera to stay sober (let alone your photographer — Ed,).
Here we bare a rather inebriated shot of Bill Bewley carrying the ball
of( Queen's right tackle as Varsity marched the ball out of their own
end on a series of ground plays.
Lunging at Bewlcy is Queen's big end, Dennis Fleming, while
lying on the ground behind him is Jim Charters. Looking on (left) is
•ilex Lawson. while in front of him is one of Varsity's guards (looks
like Marsh Hames) after blocking one of Queen's secondaries.

Over OAC At Gue/ph

After holding their own against the Baby Blues for [\
first half, the OAC Intermediate Aggies gave up the gho;
for the last half of the game played last Saturday \
Guelph and absorbed a 19-7 defeat at the hands of th
visitors.

a pass for the first score of n
game. There was a bad snap q
the 'convert and the attempted drc
kick was missed.
With Varsity quarterbacks Fitz-
henry and Geekie completing 12 out
of 18 passes, and the Blue line "
fusing to let the Aggies go any-
where, the Intermediate Blues
brought home a well-earned win,
Unafcle to go anywhere either on
the ground or in the air (seven Ag-
gie passes were intercepted by the
Blues), the only saving grace for th!
Aggies was their superlative kick-
ing.
Early in the first quarter the
Blues took possession on the centre
field stripe and advanced the ball
by a series of running plays to the
-Vorsity Sloff ynoJo by Gront Gibson,
B; BRUCE MACDONALD
The Blues kicked oft to Queen's. The Gaels ran one play
and were stopped by that now-famous Blue line for no gain.
They ran another, and fumbled. The Blues recovered and
•pproximately six plays later, each one of them an example
taken from the book "How to Block" by the 1951 Varsity
Blues. Bewley carried over for a touchdown.
The Homecoming crowd in Richardson Memorial Sta-
dium had just seen the team that defeated the Mustangs
one short week before at its best. But except for some fine
defensive play, that team all but disappeared for the rest of
the game.
The Blues were still three touchdowns (all of them
scored by fleet-footed Bobby Dale) better than the Gaels,
but they were never called upon to play the kind of football
that beat Western and the Redmen in previous league games
this season. The Blues fumbled on occasion, but that didn't
seem to bother them. There was always the chance of get-
ting it back by recovering a Queen's fumble on the next play.
This psychology business is really a wonderful thing,
and don't let anyone tell you that a football game is made
up of anything less than 50% psychology. It appeared to
Bs that the Blues started off thinking they were going to
have to play football to win this one, and then found within
the space of about three minutes that there was an easier
way than that.
As football games go, last Saturday's outing can not
be rated very high. It is pretty tough to say whether the
Blues were that good or Queen's were that pooi-. Comparing
the Blues' performance Saturday with their game against
the Mustangs here the weekend before, we are inclined to
believe that the latter was the case.
It is hard to say just where the events of the weekend
leave the Blues as far as the Intercollegiate race is concern-
ed. McGill's defeat of the Mustangs throws a somewhat
different light on the whole scene. Perhaps for no better
reason than their record of Intercollegiate championships in
recent years, the Mustangs were still considered as the team
that the Blues had to beat to regain the title even after
they had been beaten by the Blues.
Should McGill take another one from the Mustangs next
week, the shoe will be on an entirely different foot. When
we sit back and think about it. the Redmen did look a great
deal better against Varsity than the Mustangs. But then,
the difference between the same Intercollegiate team on
two successive weekends is sometimes little short of amaz
ing.
Western is always a tough team to beat at a home
game, but if the Redmen are as much better as Saturday's
score would indicate then they are going to be far froni a
.pushover when they visit Toronto for the last game of the
regular Intercollegiate schedule.
One thing seems certain. There is going to be a lot of
excitement before they close the books on the fight for the
Yates Dish this season. With any kind of luck the Blues
will get by Queen's this weekend. Then they will face a
couple of tough battles. Western would love nothing better
than to upset the apple cart for the Blues. The charges of
coach Vic Obeck are gunning for an Intercollegiate cham
pionship that was practipally stolen from them last fall.
Dent Blank Meds
Inl 5-0 Whitewash,
Group 1 1 1 Opener
By BILL WILSON
In the opening Group Three contect Friday afternoon a
sharp Dents squad whitewashed a weak-tackling Meds
Second team 15-0. Although it was not until the final quar-
ter that the winners widened their margin, they held a great
edge in the play throughout, and might have won by even
more. The losing doctors were never in possession of the
ball as far up as the centre stripe.
The Dentists' opening kick-off*
went into touch, and after booting
again from, their 35 they hemmed
the Meds for the rest of the
game. Although they had several
good opportunities for majors in the
first half George Little's single was
all they could manage. Meds' kick-
ng and goal-line stands held them
out.
In the third quarter Tats Hori's
fine placement from the 25 increas-
ed the Dent's total to four. A sleeper
pass from Jack Simpson to Jim
Gajda again brought the Den't into
scoring position. However, the Meds-
men forced them back and Hori's
thii-d down placement attempt went
wide for a single point.
Early in the fourth quarter, Meds
showed signs of recovery but two
long runs for major scores ended
their hopes, Don Gilbert took a
Meds punt on the Dent's 50 and
then lateraled to Jack Wall who
raced down the touch line through
the Meds for the touchdown. Again
talcing the Meds' first punt after
the kick-off Dents added to their
total as Jick Simpson out-ran the
Meds from mid-field to then: goal
line. Luck was with him as he
dropped the ball twice but managed
to pick it up on the run. Both ma-
jors went unconverted.
For the wiimers Baynton and
Cummings went well up front, while
Wall. Gilbert and Simpson shone in
the backfield. Jack Morphit, Mel
Urquhart, Skip Jones and Jim For
ward were the best of the losing

texts, and other kinds of refuse,
Soon the rats flocked in and set up
housekeeping. Hiis was the last
straw and the people in charge of
things like that decided to make a
clean sweep. So the basement was
renovated. The question of whether
the renovation was the cause of the
rats leaving (with apologies to the
aivtiitects), or the effect of thsu-
coming. I will leave to some con-
temporary of the event to answer.
Of course, not all has been dull
since the good old days. It appea-s
that a couple of the people, on'
hearing thU there was a dance at
UC toe2an searching for an open
window. "Tliev fcund it, and once
again Dave had to chase things out
of the hallowed halls.
Anyway the undergrads got their
better basement. A boys' cloakroom
was formed out of a guls' powder
room. The old Varsity office. jhiJ^
was right above a garbage dun^
was moved to a place which had
definitely less atmosphere.

All Cheered Out
A Vital QMestion
irtoon by Hugh Niblock.
Charity Inc.
JVhat Price Pragress 5
Not so very long ago there occurred at West
Point military academy an event which caused a
great deal of commotion both in the United States
and Canada. Ninety students had been repri-
manded during examinations for breaking theii-
pledge of honor or, more bluntly, had been caught
in the act of cheatir^. Numerous newspapers spoke
out in righteous horror against the apparent lack
of scruples of the students involved. The students
were censured, not without justification, no doubt.
However, the whole issue seems to have its root-s
in something deei>er than the scruples of the
individuals. The thoughtful reader will realize that
this episode represents on a small scale a vital
social problem.
The motivating influence underlying most cheat-
ing is the student's desire to attain a pass mark
which he thinks of, in a limited way, as the suc-
cessful completion of his academic course. But is
this statement as true as we think it is? If the
student wished a pass mark, or a high standing,
as a thing worthy of accomplishment In itself, he
would surely, through force of will, see to it that
he achieved his purpose. But no. he was content
not to have achieved his goal, but to be thought by
others to have done so. In other words, it was the
value of his friends' good opinion that he put
before his own honesty and self-respect.
This example finds various counterparts in every
walk of life. There is the case of the Individual
who wants to be a lawyer or an engineer not in
his own eyes but in the eyes of others. He warps
his whole personality, destroys his self-respect in
order to win the useless praise of his fellows. He
falsifies himself, and discards truth, honor and
self-respect. He loses what is of paramount value
in life and prizes the hollow echoes of esteem and
praise. On the scale of relative values, he ranks
prestige first.
This basic inability to judge what is of impor-
tance and jvhat is worthless comes up time anj I
time again, For instance, it can be seen by looking I
aroimd us that we have accepted and are practis^ I
ing, perhaps unconsciously, the doctrine that -{^ I
have IS of far greater merit than to become." y^l
According: to this doctrine the gauge of succesi
in life is the quantity of money that one aecumy'
lates. Apparently there is a real virtue in possession
for possession's sake. What a person actually
becomes in life or what good he can do as a result
of his wealth is overlooked. Public opinion goes to
your bank account to see if you have succeeded.
Obviously, then, it is easy to see that in the fiei<i
of relative values the materialistic has been set on
a higher level of importance than all else. Now. to
censuie and condemn materialism is foolish, foj
man lives on and by material things. The point is
however, that he need not live for material things!
In doing so his judgment of values is erring. An^
it is not surprising that his judgment should err.
In the past 70 years there has been a tremendous
advancement in the materialistic side of life. The
glittering display of inventions, following one after
another continuously, has held man almost in a
trance. The blinding cavalcade of wonders ha^
fascinated him.
As a result of these inventions, the mass of men
have developed a great admiration for the scientist,
Fed on further materialistic progress,, this admira-
tion has broadened into a faith, a faith in the
unlimited powers pf science. The solving of the
true problems of Jiumanity is relegated to second
place. Tlie order of values has been shaken and has
remained in its present undesirable state for half
i, century.
The future, it is hoped, will see the awakening
of man to his real ta^ and will see science turn
Its powers to the solving of the pressing problems
of mankind.

bigness. Not one, not two, but sixty-six local welfare insti-
tutions band together to appeal for a really impressive
amount.
Charity may still begin at home, but only to a limited
extent. People may delve into their pocketbooks or fill out
checks almost anywhere, and they do. From there on, how-
ever, the donor loses track of any interest in the series of
events Avhieh brings his gift to the needy recipient.
The long dim trail from the citizen's pocket to the can-
vassers, from the canvasser to the central office, from this
organizational maze to the small charitable institutions and
finally to the beneficiary, has managed to depersonalize
charity entirely.
The individual rarely has any firsthand knowledge about
the cause to which he is asked to contribute. Publicity car-
ried in the daily newspapers and a personal interview with
the canvasser (who has read all the pamphlets and there-
fore knows the situation) manage to convince him that
Buch-and-such a cause is a Good Thing.
It is, of course, easy to see why there is such a great
separation between donor and recipient. The city is a vast
honeycomb in which each income bracket is housed in a
cell carefully separated from the others. Organizations are
formed to penetrate- these divisions, something which the
individual cannot do effectively.
While the work carried on by charitable institutions is
an every way necessary and indispensable it seems that the
organization required to raise money has passed the bounds
of reason. The enormous expense of publicity reduces the
amount of money available for the actual work of relief.
Instead of using high pressure salesmanship to raise
funds, taxation for charitable purposes might be instituted.
In this way, all the public would be forced to undertake their
responsibilities instead of leaving it to those who are most
susceptible to propaganda.
Possibly, the money saved by the reduction of publicity
would not be offset by the carefree spending of bureaucratic
institutions.
OUR READERS WRITE
Rusisian Soldiers;
Editor, The Varsity:
I would like to accept your in-
vitation and discuss the visit of
Soviet students to Canada. I am
surprised, as much as you are,
with the weak "finswers" Toronto
representatives gave campus Reds,
wiiich insisted to , know the real
reasons for their vote against the
1 . .'t. the highest
time that we discuss wuh thu
Reds the same way, using the
methods, they do with us- The
Peace Council episode is a very
good example what an organized
democracy cm do.
To achieve tnac stage of ability
to deal with Communist?, we
should be fully aware, first of all,
of the main differences in the
way of thinking cf democrats
and Communists. One of the fun-
damental do'-trines of Commun-
ist^ is world supremacy by means
of conspiracy and force of arm-j.
This is well summed in the
phrase "dictatorship of the pro-
letariat", iised by their maiu
ideciogists, from Marx and En-
gels to Lenin and Stalin. With-,
out going any further, it is plain
that we are poles apart, for dem-
ocracy, in the very meaning of
the vord, is against any forms of
dictatorship.
Having that in mind we should
regard communists as the most
dangerous enemies of our fami-
lies, country and way of life.
When they ARE our enemies,
^tiy not treat them as such?
Why not tell them so ? Knowing
what they want, they are always
a st^ ahead of us, for we are un-
aware of that fact.
Reading The Vardty an out-
sider would think that atoout 50^<>

Students
• ••For Us
At its last meeting, the Students' Administrative Coun-
cil decided to hold a Feather Fair, thereby reversing last
spring's decision not to have one.
One reason given, for this change of attitude was the
tremendous enthusiasm with which the university as a
whole approached the Fair. Yet we wonder whether a dif-
ferent object might not have been chosen.
Not that the Community Chest Drive is unworthy of
our support — - it ia in every way. However, there are in-
numerable worthy causes, and some of them less supported
than the Red Feather Campaign.
Possibly, as students, our first sympathies should lie
with the universities which are in urgent need of assistance.
Last year's All Varsity Aid to students in South East Asia,
while receiving enthusiastic support on the campus, could
hardly he said to have exhausted the need.
The student's pockets are not lined with gold, indeed,
we are in luck if there is a drop of silver. If it is a matter
of choice, and we believe it is, the world community of stu-
dents should come first.
Efditor, The Varsity:
You and r and, probatoly the
reader of this copy of The Var-
sity, are now concerned as to
whether we should invite a group
of Russian students to Canada.
This is my "two cents' worth"
about that problem:
NFCUS wants to bring Asian
students to our university. This
plan follows a policy of previous
ISS actions. During the past sum-
mer Canadian students discussed
Asian problems with representa-
tive young people from Pakistan
and India as well as other Asian
and European nations.
There is a great deal of ill-will
against the British which is borne
by some Asians who earnestly
desbe independent maturity for
their native lands. All Varsity Aid,
ISS. and numerous other bodies,
both within and without the uni-
versity, are attempting to help
Asians achieve a maturity within a
reasonable and friendly attitude
toward the Western nations.
Shouldn't those men and women
who are part of the Westminster
Commonwealth come to a realiza-
tion of the philosophies and goals
of their fellow citizens in Canada
who are working for and thinking
of them?
As yet little has been heard
from the NFCUS officials who
actually made the decision, in a
democratic procedure, not to in-
vite Russian students. ... I, for
one, would appreciate hearing
their side of the case.
Again, I have not as yet heard
any concrete r^ans for the pro-
posed visit of Soviet students.
Who will pay their exipenses?
When will they arrive? How long
will they remain? And at what
place in Caanda will they stay?
A fre« and informal visit of
completely representative USSR
students would, I expect, be of
the greatest benefit to all the
people of Canada and to some ex-
tent the world. If we could treat
them in as unbiased a manner as
possible and encourage them to
think of us as friendly rather than
hostile critics we would either
find that these students were the ,
restricted products of a tightly
controlled society or possibly the
fii'st genuine evidence of a friend-
ly culture which we are wrongly
condemning.
An important step in the mak-
ing of this crucial decision of in-
vitation would be a double page
spread in TIm Varsity giving re-
liable and thorough reporting of
the views of both the NFCUS
and Denis Lazure, followed by the
widest and fullest discussion on
this issue throughout the Toron-
to campus.
Bill Harding-,
II Vic.
speeches occupy In the paper.
That is a good exanuple how they
work. If there are even two Reds
attending- some students' meeting
they would always take about
half of the discussion time or
more it we let them do so. Tliere-
fore, it is the highest time that
we start to treat and reg;ard Uiem
as A DANGEROUS MINORITY.
WITH JUST SO MUCH RIGHT
TO INTERFERE WITH MA-
JORITY'S DECISIONS.
Now, they are insisthig that
NPOUS brings Soviet students to
visit Canada. Yet we see what is
behind the story. In the Soviet
Union all educational institutiom
are under closest control of the
Party. All students are members
of an organization also controlled
by the Party. Whom do you thinK
they would send to Canada? Only
the most active members of the
Komsomod (Communist Youth),
of course. Hiey will not come
as the promoters of peace and
xmderstanding between us, but
only as soldiers of the Comin-
tern, estimating their enemies
strength, so that they can hit
harder on our weak spots in the
future between freedom and ty-
rany.
The Varsity editorials say Xh^
a big mistake was made in not
asking the Soviets to come.
It suggests that "we are develop-
ing the narrow Uiinking on is-
sues which concern communism
in any way". Was Churchill a
"narrow thinker"' when he kept
attacking Nazis as the enemies of
freedom? Is it "narrow thinking"
when we think first about the se-
curity of our homes, mothers and
fathers?
The war between communism
and democracy is inevitable, not
because we wanted that way. Yet
we must face the ifacts and keep
the enemy away from our shores.

MEDS AFLOAT
-ITie above float won the Alumnae
last year for the best float in
he Homecoming parade. The
edsmen who built the float said
a demons tra tion of 2 ,000
ears of medicine and a mobile
aby-super-
■market. The obstetrical
iftss-pioduction machine was de-
igned to make babies with varying
ex -appeal without fuss or muss so
hat any lady could take one home
I surprise her husband.
This year the medsmen claim
hat their entry will again be one
[ the top contenders for the
rophy. However the same claims
lave been made by Skule and
ther groups.
The size of the faculty entering
he competition does not affect the
E'ity of the entry. Last year Art
Archaeology received an honor-
mention for their float de-
cting ancient Egypt. An editorial
in The Varsity described this float
as being in a category by itself,
showing imagination and taste.
Entries this year are limited to
200 feet in length and the empha-
sis is being placed on quality rather
than quantity. This will give the
smaller groups a better chance at
winning the Alumnae Cup. Last
year some of the best entries were
from colleges such as Emmanuel
with their Pastor-izing machine or
faculties such as Architecture who
had five floats forming a train
showing the evolution of Architec-
ture in five stages.
It is expected that the Blue and
White band will be joined by the
Scarlet and Gold Light Infantry
and Regimental Parade Band as
well as the Lady Godiva Memorial
Band. Other bands in last year's
parade were called the Dental
Chompers, the UC Dragon Stomp-
ers, and the School of Music Hill-
billies.
The Alumnae Cup. in past years,
has been won by Forestry, Archi-
tecture, and Medicine with St.
Mike's and Engineering contribut-
ing good entries last year.
In spite of a suggestion by a
member of the Opposition that the
Conservative policy consists entire-
ly of being one hundred years be-
hind the times, the motion before
the Vic Debating Parliament last
night, "Britain Tfeeds a Conserv-
ative Government" was upheld by
47 to 30 vote.
"The Conservative Party seeks to
serve the best interest of Great
Britain," Alex Langford, II Vic stat-
ed. The Opposition wondered
whether the indifference to the des.
titute during the '30's was an ex
ample of how Britain's best inter'
ests were served, by a Conservative
Government.
"Just a little bit better, but not
a Utopia." Langford thus pictures
Great Britain if the Conservatives
should win the election. He indicat-
ed that there is a limit to govern-
ment action and that a Conserv-
ative government would respect
that limit.
The second speaker for the Gov-
ernment, G. L. Spalding, IV Vic.
suggested that the Labor party is
divided and that it would at best
only be able to form a minority
government. Spalding reviled the
"timid" foreign policy of the Labor
Government in the past 6 years.
"Churchill is sure to present a firm
(foreign) policy." he told the House.
"Never, in the history of man-
kind, have so many done so little
for so few." In these words Spald
ing summarized his view of the
Labor Government. The schizo-
phrenic front benchers of the gov-
ment have failed to provide the
firm leadership needed in these
troubled times he went on to say.
Shirley Eadlcott, IV Vic, said that

Book
The new 1951 edition of the Can-
ada Year Book has now been au-
thorized for distribution and re-
lease.
This book has long proved In-
valuable to all thinking Cana-
dians, comprising as it does all
vital statistics in every branch of
our National life. This year's edi-
tion has proved worthy of the repu-
tation set by its predecessors, al-
though the task of consolidating
the data of a nation increases in
diffic-olty with the growth and ex-
pansion of a nation.
Paper-bound copies are avail-
able at J1.50 to teachers, university
students and ministers of religion
from tiie Bureau mentioned above.
Cloth bound copies: $3.00.
The Year Book is recognized by
thousands of Canadians in office,
library, classroom and home as an
invaluable source of authentic in-
formation regarding the national
economy and the people's welfare.

For NFCUS
student leaders seem unsure of
whether they hve in the Dominion
of Canada or simply in Canada.
In a commission meeting at
NPCUS' London, Ont., conference,
someone moved that "the Dominion
of Canada" on NFCUS documents
be changed to conform with Fed-
eral Govermnent practice.
The vote: four for, one against,
five abstentions. The University of
Toronto cast the lone negative vote.
Arthur Garami, violinist, was the
aoloist last Sunday in the first of
the Hart House Sunday Evenmg
Concerts, The program consisted
of a sonata by Vivaldi, the violin
sonata by Debussy, and a group of
display pieces, included in the con-
cert for the time-honored purpose
of allowing the violinist to show off
his double-stopping, his spiccato, his
harmonics, and similar achieve-
ments.
By and large, this last group was
the most satisfying of the concert.
For it cannot be denied that Mr.
Garami gets around his notes
pretty handily. Three little pieces
by Dohnanyi called -Ruraha Hun-
garica'' (the last bearing a startling
resemblance to "Weel may the keel
row") made a bright finish for the
concert, and Mr. Garami played
them with all the flashiness and
fire usually associated with Hun-
garian music. A transcription of
the nocture in C sharp minor by
Chopin showed his tone to good
advantage. And two caprices by
Paganini showed that Mr. Garami
is capable of accurate, melodious
double-stopping. Hart House audi-
ences are perhaps accustomed to
things of greater intrinsic musical
worth, but virtuosity is pleasant to
listen to. even if it is directed to no
other end than gathering applause
for the artist.

tis advance notices constantly
Died his name with Horowitz's,
nd somehow led one to expect a
i^nist of similar talents. His re-
'mblance, however is only the l>e-
Ivior of the audience — liis style
f playing is altogebher different,
'orowitz concentrates on hard,
"illiant tone, with very sparing
of the pedal. Gulda, on the other
land is a master of legato playing.
™^ makes more liberal use of the
dal, and (perhaps at the ex-
tense of clarity) achieves a won-
lerful singing tone on an essential-
percussive instrument. In view
the fact that many composers
or the piano, including Bach, Mo-
ai't and Chopin, considered this
laradoNical achievement the prin-
ipal requirement for good piano-
ilaying. Mr. Gulda is well qualified
[ an interpreter of the classics.
Mr. Gulda's program consisted of
inly three works: Sonata No. 34 by
aydn, Sonata Opus 110 by Bee-
jioveii and Moussorgsky's "Pic-
ures at an Exhibition". In the
:avdn. particularly in the first
Qovement. the rather heavy pedal-
ing tended to blur some of the
uns, but the performance made
in rhythmic vivacity what it
acked in crispness.
llr. Gulda came into his own
lb the Beethoven. The Opus 110
mata seems particularly well
luited to his talents. Unlike many
of Beethoven's late sonatas, it is
melodious piece, and his ability
tor make the piano "sing", es-
pecially in the tranquil fu-st and
third movements, inparted a glow
to the performance. The last move-
ment is a fugue with a long inter-
jected reference to the third move-
ment, and Mr. Gulda succeeded In,
bringing out the melodies ol the
inner parts to an astonishing de-
gree. Beethoven's rather rough and
ready counterpoint was turned into
a living, almost vocal sort of
music.
Moussorgsky's "Pictures at an
Exhibition'' is much more fre-
quently heard in an orchestral
transcription than in the original
pianoforte version. But Mi-. Gukia
gave convincii^ evidence that the
original can be far more exciting
than the transcription. Unfortun-
ately the management did not see
fit to supply the audience with a
list of the pictures that Moussorg-
sky had in mind when he composed
the work. It was therefore all the
more remarkable how cleverly Mr.
Gulda portrayed the viewer as he
wandered through the gallery, not-
ing his impressions of the various
eastern scenes of splendor, mystery,
and violence. The intensely pic-
torial quality of the music made
up for the lack of definite titles
for the pictures. Mr. Gulda and the
audience seemed equally carried
away by it, and the performance
was of a technical brilliance that
left one gasping.
Finally. Mr. Gulda deserves spe-
cial praise fr his courage in making
his program exclusively one of
longer and more serious works. He
is an artist who is sure of himself
and in a good position to demon-
strate that Toronto audiences can
be just as enthusiastic about good
music as about mediocre, if it is
well played.

Yesterday, before an unusually
large group. Dr. Healey-Willan
played the organ. The opening se-
lection was the Sonata No. 4 by
Josef Rheinberger, of which the
lecond movement — Intermezzo —
was in the exquisite class — a deftly
outlined pastoral - like number,
which was beautifully played, ex-
:epfc for minor irregularities in
«mpo. However, the outside move-
lents suffered — the first from
rather rhapsodic treatment whioh
bscured the outlines of the open-
ing theme, and the last — fuga
■nromatica — from erratic tempo
^nd excess foundation tone, al-
though the enunciation was well-
lefined tonally and rhythmically,
ih Chorale-Preludes by
'^^^'■^'st, the first was performed
"fi an incisiveness and contrast

ans flair for music of a quiet,

^»id seemed to suffer from the
uiousness of outline that marred
Sonata.

TrJ^^^ ^'^^ delicate style that

J. S, Bach. The Toccata had its
moments, notably the allegro, but
these were linked by episodes of no
discernible character. The fugue
began bravely but suffered a set-
back at the pedal entry, and from
this point lost all clarity and form.
As judged by this recital, Dr. Wil-
lan's style is admirably suited to
pieces of an intimate character,
but fails when he attempts num-
ber* grandiose proportions.

\ few months ago a psychologist,
a psychiatrist, a psychoanalyst, an
athropologist, a phUosopher, and a
sociologist, all from the University
of Toronto got together lor dinner
at the Chez Paree. During the
course of the meal the conversation
stemmed upon adult education, and
the lack of it here in Toronto.
"Each of us contributed one cent,
to start the ball rolling." explained
Dr. E. S. Carpenter in tallring about
the inconspicuous origin of the To-
ronto School of Social Studies of
which he is secretary - treasurer.
This school is now embarked upon
a lecture series presented as "An
Adventure in Adult Education'' un-
der the general title of "A social-
Philosophy lor Modern Man".
The Toronto School of Social
Studies is a pioneer in the field of
adult education here in Toronto.
"Toronto is one of the few large
cities in America wliere they do not
have this," Dr. Carpenter went on.
"Our aim is to reach wide audiences
on a mature level."
Dr. Carpenter stressed the fact
that the audience was treated RS an
adult one, and was not "spoon-fed".
The series of ten lectures given dur-
ing the fall term are entitled "Cul
ture and Personality". They are
presented every Tuesday at 8:00
p.m. in the Unitarian Church, 175
St. Clair Ave. (just west of Avenue
Road) by leading men in the field
of social science here in Toronto,
and in the world.
Three of these lectures have al-
ready been presented. On Oct. 23
Professor R. A. Sim will speat on
to music. The large selection of
records includes music to suit all
tastes and a special request book is
always available for those desir-
ing to hear personal favorites.

"Individual Problems In Social
Change". There is an admission
charge of fifty-cents a lectm-e. How-
ever, the organization is a non-
profit one, and the money collected
is used to bring in outside speakers.
Dr. Carpenter expressed the hope
that Eric Promin, author of "Escape
from Freedom", who is now in
Mexico, would be one of these.
The seven founders of the school
have been amazed and over-
v/helmed by the response to the lec-
tm-es from the general public, for
their project has received a mini-
mum of advertising. Dr. Carpenter
believed that many university stu-
dents would find the lectures val-
uable, for they would get up-to-
Lhe-date information on fields which
could not be covered in classroom
lectures.
By w;iy of example he cited Pro-
fessor J. R. Seeley's lecture on "The
Authoritarian Personality" to be
given on Nov. 13. The topic will be
discussed In terms of the people of
Toronto, he said. He expressed the
hope that the CBC would broadcast
the lectures over their network ne.'5t
year, and was enthusiastic over the
school's future.
"It's comparable to the new school
of Social Research in New York," he
went on, "for it started the same
way about 25 years ago.
The second series to be given dur-
ing the winter will deal with the
nature of society, entitled "Social
Institutions and the Individual". Ou
the staff are Professor G. Gordoa
Brown, who is the chairman, Eliza-
beth Brown, Professor John A.
Irving. Rev. William P. Jenkins, and
F-ofessors John R. Seeley, R. Alex-
ander Sims, and Edmund S.

Caeds Must Use Side Door
Netv Reguiation At McGiU
Montreal — (CUP)— Whafs the
matter with old McGUI? WeU, aU
that seems to be bothering Cana-
da's second university is a ruhng
that men must enter the Arts build-
ing by the main front door, -while
the coeds have been delegated to
using the side door and the side
door only. This issue has stirred
rumblings from various sources that
have been echoed lor the past
couple of weeks in the McGill DaUy,
the undergraduate newspaper. Rea-
Bon for the move seems to be over-
crowding at the main entrance.
What do the students think about
It? As may be expected most of the
comment comes from the coeds.
"A great wrong has been done
the women of McGill," one third
year coed exclaimed in a letter to
the McGill Daily. "Women have
been pushed around at McGill— the
women's union was pushed into the
basement of Royal Victoria Col-
lege (coed residence): the women
Jiad to fight for years to get into
the Student Union— and now wom-
en are being pushed in the side door
of the Arts buUding. The present
system is not only inconvenient, it
is downright anti-social. Imagine
the chagrin of a poor girl who has
finally contrived to get the Man to
walk to lectures with her, only to
have to leave him on the steps of
the Arts building ... It means
changing long-standing habits. I
was caught up by the watchman
four times in one day."
Another complainea that the ef-
fect on the social life of the stu-
dents wUI be disastrous or even ca-
tastrophic. From questionmg sever-
al students, he came up with such
comments as: "It divides the stu-
dents and makes you conscious of
your sex."
Some of the coeds have taken
matters into their own hands. Some
say they have to mail a letter to get
in the main door while others have
decided that the sign "Men's En-
trance" says nothing about exit and
so out they come, undaunted.
Since the cjomplaint that caused
the ruling was congestion at the
main door, the inevitable has oc-
curred at the side door, insists an-
other third year coed. "Have you
ever seen several hundred women
trying to use one small entrance,"
she demands. "They all stop to talk
to their friends and the congestion
in the doorway becomes worse than
it ever was at the main door .. . Any
coed who tries to get into the Arts
building with the congesion and
cross -traffic, under the new ar-
rangement is practically taking her
life in her hands."
Solutions to the problem have
been the second most popular topic
of conversation on the campus. The
first are the complaints about the
ruling, of course. One person sug-
gested' that freshmen be made to
use the side door while another said
one door could be used as an en-
trance while the other two are used
as exits.
The coeds might also take up the
offer advanced by the ever alert
engineers. Noting that no ruling ap-
plied at the Engineering building
as at the Arts, they, (being broad-
minded, theyl said), welcome all co-
eds to loiter on the sunny steps of
their edifice.

Aukie Prof:
Freshmen
Challenged
The challenge of Christianity
was put before Freshmen last
Sunday by Professor Blaiklock.
head of the Classics Department
at the University of Auckland New
Zealand. Members of the Varsity
Christian Fellowship and their
friends heard this Freshman ser-
mon at Wycliffe College Chapel.
Professor Blaiklock drew a sur-
prising analogy between the posi-
tion of the first year student and
that of Pontius Pilate at the trial
of Jesus Christ. When Pontius
Pilate directed the trial, he him-
seld was being tested as a Roman
governor and judge.
Professor Blaiklock said that
Pilate had failed to meet this cri-
sis in his life because he was
weighted down with three heavy
burdens, the compromises of his
post, of his career, and of his as-
sociates.
"Similarly." said Professor
Blaiklock, "a student in his first
year must meet such a crisis.
Christianity challenges him to
make a decision and to override
his compromises."
On Monday afternoon. Professor
Blaiklock spoke to the students
individually at Emmanuel Col-
lege and later addressed the
VCF at University College.
The athletic association in
House has taken over the respon.i
sibilities of an indirect tickeii
agency. This is the result of thelil
having offered to sell a numb«i
of tickets on behalf of Maplel
Leaf Gardens for the basketbaljl
game tonight with the Harleml

added convenience to the studenls,!
said J, P. Loosemore, financiall
secretary of the Hart House Ath.l
letic Association. There are stilll
50 tickets, which will be on sal[|

TRAVELOGUE
Bloops Abroad
Bloops( born a year ago, have
become part of an All-Varsity
wardrobe today. The nice thing
about them is that they can be
worn anywhere, with any color
scheme, and on anyone without ap-
pearing unconventional.
For example take the story of this
bloop. which was a bloop like any
other bloop in the SAC Treasury
Office until it got an owner. Then
it began to get around to football
games and dances and such things.
During the winter it hibernated in
moth-balls until the sun came out
again. So the Bloop went out into
the backyard along with a lawn
chair and a sheaf of exam papers.
In the summer the Bloop went
fishing, motoring, boating in all
types of weather. It could be thrown
into an overnight case or crumbled
into a pocket. By the time autumn
came it was a bit drab but still
practical.
The Bloop hit the big time when
it went abroad on Thanksgiving
to Chicago. Last minute thought
had seen it thrown into the suit-
case. It came out again at midnight
under the eyes of a custom officer
at the American border. During
the remainder of the trip it lay
cocked over a forehead to dim the
bus lights. Transport drivers shared
a private joke among themselves
at its expense when the Bloop had
breakfast at a wayside inn at five
in the morning.
The Bloop made Bloop history
when it appeared on television at a
Chicago studio, which is a Good
Thing as far as Bloops go.
But Chicago was cold, wet and
windy so the Bloop. aside from TV
performances, stayed ^ to help
along the Toni, From the way
Chicago followed the Bloop with
its eyes, it was evident that the
local campi had nothing to offer
alongside of it.
The city itself is far from the
grim one painted by Roarin' Twen-
ties press. Admittedly there are a
few relics from Al Capone's time
lingering about, but the commercial
and educational aspects of Chicago
outweigh them.
The University of Chicago cam
pus is big and beautiful with many
of the buildings built in a style
reminiscent of Hart House. Fra-
ternity houses occupy former manJ
sions whose elaborate architectur(|
belongs to the Victorian hey-t
You learn that Chicago is one ell
the great universities of the lani],|
and the site of atomic research.
In the tremendous Museum ol
Science and Industry, second ii
the world only to the one at Berlin
the one disconcerting remark o:
the journey was hurtled at the
Bloop by a group of College -lookinsj
types who said, "Oh horrors'"
Otherwise the Bloop did gel
^uite a bit of support from otha
quarters. A Bowery -looking char-'
acter in a greasy side street re-i.ui-
rant said "I like that hat", Hi';
American Navy abroad i" '
streets said "Howse about ii?
The one disadvantage of a Bloo;
appeared to be the difficulty
convincing anyone that its (■'i"'
was a responsible citizen of
land. 1
So to get to the point finally- Tin
Bloop is an all-round, all-weatliei
sort of a thing. So get yours at tii"

uiescence, the effects of faith,
ow after these many days, a
;er has appeared who can speak
sacrament as though it is not
archaism and of belief as
ugh it is neither neurotic nor
ntellectual curiosity. This writer
jraham Greene,
is new book is the st-ory of a
It: the damnable and wonder-
thing about it is that no apology
required by that statement,
all Miles is here both despair-
human and a worker of
acles. She leaves the impress of
) alised love upon the hating
lul creature who tells her
— the novelist, Maurice Ben-
— upon her husband whom she
from his lifelong insignifi-
^, upon a discarded lover whose
^sical blemishes disappear be-
of her beneficent influence
XT her death, and upon a child
lio suffers as she does but never
has much to with her in the
course of the narrative. Sarah is
blessed, yet her saintliness doesn't
repel one.
Bendriz and Sarah had been lov-
ers. They had parted and two years
later Bendrix had met her husband
m a chance walk. The husband has
come to suspect Sarah of present
infidelity and confides in Bendrix.
Consumed by jealousy and hate
the latter sets himself to hunt Ms
late love down in her new debase-
ment. He finds her intimate with
a professional rationalist whose
wholly irrational fight against an
upside-down God has infected
Sarah with belief — this quite
against her will. In the course of
the investigation he finds too that
she has really loved him, Bendrix
all the while. He flies to' reunite
himself with her but is too late.
She has contracted a lung infec-
tion analagous to the psychical in-
fection which gives her physical
death just as she finally finds, in
spite of herself, the Being whom
she had desired to love so long.
Bendrix of course (the creative
writer, the artist) has been an
adumbration of this conclusion, and
the chief of the three miracles
which occur after Sarah's deach
is the final acquiescence of this
cankered hateful man in belief in
the Being whose name is Love.
This is the end of the affair and
yet there remain several questions
which the book can only answer in
its effect and not by an explicit
message. How can this novelist hope
to depict the delicacy of intention
lingering in the depths of the
secret heart whioh even his per-
ception cannot bring to light? He
cannot ever know the exact mo-
tives which determine salvation or
damnation. He is not God. Yet
there remains a means by which
these states can be rendered be-
lievably. This is explicitly given in
the text when Greene makes Ben-
drix say that he manages to give
his characters life by exposing them
in some extreme action. By their
uniquely attractive or repellent
fruits, ye shall know them.
Sarah and Maurice are conse-
quently figured repeatedly in the
extreme situation of the physical
act of love which shadows forth
the later ultimate union. This is
an old technique; but nowhere has
it been so explicitely stated that
the consideration of intention, act,
and circumstances, proper to
ethical studies, the second and
third aspects of the matter are the
only ones really clear to us. (The
heart of the matter was Scobie's
sacrilegious act.) The "psychologi-
cal" studies of Dostoievslry, re-
garded in this light, are studies of
fevered hurried and extreme ac-
tion. We know Rasiolnikov by the
murder and confession, and not by
the analysis of his motives.
Psychology is not enough, unless
one is Divine. But the representa-
tion of actions almost always leads
beyond art into moral science. Is
the organic fusion of judgment
about good and evil with artistic
form, really possible? This is one
of those recurring matters which
give the semioticians pause. But
if one can find examples where
morality becomes vibrant with ar-
tistic clarity, becomes, indeed, art,
then the question Ls superfluous. I
am aware of the petitio principii
here. But look at "Comus" or the
last act of "Othello". As a matter
of fact, you could do worse than
look at 'The End of the Affair'
and that is what I have been sug-
gesting. Hugh Hood.

I Provincials by John Cornish, publish-
ed by George J. McLcod, I9S1. $4.00,
Uthough The Provincials hit the

; think it deserves some sort of
Jention of this page for several
»ns. First of all, the author,
1 Cornish, is a former editor of

Its that he is indebted to his
perience on an undergraduate
aper for his present success
novelist. "That," says Mr,
pnish, "is where I learned how

juen Mr. Cornish" claims that his
I th autobiographical, he
that it is not pure fiction
.r. Which brings us down to a
wa. and probably the best reason
I matter up, namely
I novel itself.
The Provincials Is the story of a
wealthy B.C. lumber magnate and
his large family of six children as
seen by a friend of the family, who
eventually marries the only daugh-
ter. Bunty, While reading The
provincials we were continually
impressed With the way in which
Mr. Cornish stayed within the
bounds of his own experience with-
out ever dropping the butterfly-net
of self-pity quietly down upon us
when we weren't looking. In the
narrator of the story, Kenneth
Menzies. we feel that. Mr. Cornish
has given of himself when there
was a chance, but never to the
extent that the Dunsieth family is
overshadowed.
And it is here that Mr. Cormshs
maturity becomes evident, for the
Dunsieth family is alive. Without
any subtle analysis of personalities
or superior condescension Mr. Corn-
ish gives them to us "straight on
the strength of their actions and
conversations. This is perhaps the
easiest way to wi-ite a novel, but
a method well handled by Mr. Corn-
ish, and we have nothing but
praise for his genuineness and lack
of pretension.
To the left of this picture of John
Cornish, who is a former editor of
The Ubyssey and an army veteran,
is the review of his first novel, The
Provincials. Cornish first became
interested in writing while an un-
dergraduate at the University of

With F. Scott Fitzgerald's desperately gay little flapper high-stepping
the Charleston somewhere in the back of otir minds, we were wondering
the other day if the times are responsible for creating a certain type of
woman who later becomes a literary convention, or if the t>'pe hits the
bookstands first, the product of some dissastisfied writer's imagination,
and is then taken up by the times. We came to the conclusion that the
iiterar>' portrayal generally was created out of something that existed
beforehand, and that If a New Woman emerged in literature you could
be pretty sure you'd met her at a party the week before.
Furthermore, with Fitzgerald's flapper as our point of departure, we
began to wonder who ner successors were, and. scanning the thirties and
early forties, it wasn't difficult to stipulate what the qualifications for
Daisy Buchanans' successor would be. namely a political consciousness and
a propensity to confuse love with politics. This type emerged in literature
as "Maria" in For Whom the Bell Tolls and as "Laura" in Katherine Ann
Porter's Flowering Judas, to give two of the best examples.
Arriving at our own times, we went prowling in .senrch of the New
Woman of the fifties. Mind you we may be living under a false assumption
and it's quite possible that there's no such animal, but the first two ijooka
that caught our eye were novels which put the leading female characer
under very close scrutiny. We refer to Alberto Moravia's Conjugal Love
and William Sansome's Face of Innocence.
In both these novels we are presented with thin, medium-tall, fair-
haired damsels who both have an idiosyncrasy which puzzles their
husbands. One of them slips off into trances, "moments when her strange
eyes lose their presence and seem to dream," while the other is subject
to a facial contortion which manifests itself at the oddest moment'^ and
is completely out of keeping with her character. Merging the narrator
and the husband in Face of Innocence into one person as Moravia does in
Conjugal Love, the two husbands go through a similar experience of
discovering a se.-cual maladjustment in the lives of IheU- wives, for which
they, we think, are responsible. Both wives commit an act of infidelity
with members of the lower orders, the one with a mechanic and the
other with a barber, which both husbands witness.
This brings us to a point which will doubtless be contested by many,
but one which we wiU nevertheless venture to make. We would like to
suggest that in a highly geared society the female finds it much more
difficult to adjust than the male, and that the mysterious quality which
intrigues the bloodless, reasonable male of modern suciety m a woman
^uch as Leda of Conjugal Love and Eve in Face of Innocence is a product
of the sexual maladjustment which is responsible for their fascinating
neuroticisms. One of Eve's most persistent expostulations is "that it she
had her way all the white civilizers would be returned to their own
countries, or drowned and the simple, natural natives allowed to go their
own simple, natural ways. . .
The husbands soon realize that they have played a very passive and
inglorious role. One of them had stopped making love to his wife because
he wanted to save himself for his work, and the other was too busy
pmv™ bowls to even know where his wife was most of the time. I is
no wonder that neither of them openly confront their wives with their
rnfidemy when they discover what has been goins; on. I'Jftf . 'l^^y
Continue to love their wives even more than before and we would like to
sSest here that it is just such husbands who are responsible for the

Marchbanks Regurgitated
TEMPEST-TOST, hy Robcrlson
Clork Irwin, 376 pp., 53.00,
The Beard of Peterborough has
emitted a first novel. It seems like
a high event in the development of
Canadian culture. So we Canadian
culture advocates are all clucking
about it. Tempest-Tost is worth a
few clucks.
The httle gnome who sits on a
high stool in the publishers' of-
fice and writes the blurbs on the
dust jackets, suggests that "only
in the most technical sense" is
Tempest-Tost a first new novel,
And the little gnome has a good
case. We are not "wrenched sud-
denly into a new world of a new
ViTiter. We are still in the same
happy if sometimes grumpy world
of Samuel Marchbanks. That is. for
most of tlie book.
Tempest-Tost is concerned with
the production of "The Tempest"
by the Salterton Little Theatre
group. Salterton is the mythical
Ontario town of Kingston and
gives lots of room for Marchbanks
to make his ufbane Furnace-fed
comments on small Ontario towns,
their externals and internals.
The cast of characters is a mot-
ley crew. We first chance upon
Predegonde Webster, fourteen years,
who is not sure whether her des-
tiny lies in a nunnery or a vinery.
There are other supporting play-
ers like the culture vulture matron
Nellie Forrester who is The Little
Theatre, Vambrace the Professor
who doubles as a ham. Valentine
Rich as the professional come heme
who directs the production, Solly
Bridgewater who has been around
and still feels the curb of the ma-
ternal bridal, and an anarchistic
organist, Humphrey Cobbler, who
is at ease with the world.
The aiero, so to speak. Is sUge-
5trucb maths teacher Hector Mac-
ilwraith who has a hard time all
tlie way through. He gets the part
of Gonzalo, but otherwise his
dreams and illusions are swept
away into a dark abyss of frus-
tration and horiid imaginings. His
September love for Griselda, the
blonde fairy queen sister of the
Fermenter Fredegonde, goes blooie.
His plunge into the world of ro-
mance, feet fir.^t, is a dismal flop.
Not only bhat. Bill Glenesk would
probably have dismissed his Gon-
zalo with a sweeping bit of damag-
ing rhetoric.
Be that as it may, Tempest-Tost
is great fun for the first two-
thirds. Things seem to be promis-
ing to happen, and with a polished
Marchbanks leavening, everyone is
having a good time. And then
comes the climax on the actual
first night of the Salterton Little
Theatre production of "The Tem-
pest"'. But It isn't a climax at all.
An attempted but inept suicide in
between acts seems very melodra-
matic and truly un-Canadian.
Tempest-Tost is for followers of
Samuel Marchbanks: there Is m
sumptuous offering of Table-t.ilk
here. But as a novel, Tempest-Tost
disappoints. Fredegonde Webster
who promises to be so much, dis-
appears into the background after
an appealing introduction. The
whole Little Theatre seems to fol-
low her example.
There must be some important
symbolism In this work. A book
auction Is thrown rather bodily
into the narrative at one point.
Possessive mothers linger heavily
the lives of more than on»
character. And all ends in cloud of

Blue Track Squad Host
To Intercollegiate Meet
Both the Senior and the Intermediate Intercollegiate
traci. meets are being held at Toronto this year. Both will be
held Wednesday afternoon at the stadium, running concur-
rently/ with the Intermediate runs, throws, or jumps pre-
ceding the Senior in each event. Thus the Intermediate 880
will be run off and followed immediately by the Senior 880
This should provide the athletes with a little more time to
rest between events than is usually the case
The other teams entered in the Queen's, always a straggler in track,
Senior meet are McGiE (who won
It last year). Western, and Mc-
Master. Competing with the Var-
sity Intermediates will be OAC and
Waterloo College. The Ints won
their meet in a walkaway iast year,
but it's always possible that one of
the small colleges may turn up
with something. Western used to
enter an Intermediate team, but de-
cided last year that it carved too
big a hole In their football teams
lo send two traok teams away. Mc-
Master used to be a fixture in the
Intermediate loop just as in foot-
ball, but have graduated to Senior.

Two of the Blues' biggest men
and best defensive players came out
of the Queen's game with injuries,
Al Brown and Bob Garside. Whether
they will miss any future games or
not is not known for sure yet. They
are under medical surveillance now.
Brown, 6'3", 190-pound end, re-
ceived a kick in his side from some
friendly Queen's lineman, and may
have a kidney injury, though this
will not be asceitained till the re-
sults of tests at the Health Service
are released.
Garside, G'2", 195-pound line-
backer, suffered possible torn liga-
ments in his left shoulder, and will
likely miss Saturday's game with
Queen's here. X-rays are being
taken.

on tlie sideline
It's been a glorious weekend for the Blue and White.
Rugby triumplis are an old story now, but whether the
Yate's Cup comes to Toronto or not, we have one intercol-
legiate championship to our credit, as of last Saturday. The
Var.sily gals walked off with all the honours at the Ladies
Intercollegiate meet, snaring a total of 12 points out of a
maximum possible of 12. McGill was the only threat, finish-
ing with a total of 9. Queen's was next on the scale, with a
score of 5. Western and McMaster toddled home with scores
of 3 and 1, respectively. Last year, McGill tied with Varsity
for the title. With Toronto snatching the title this year.
Tennis sharks around the- campus are feeling pretty fine.
If McGill has anything to do with it, our acquisition of the
intercollegiate bauble will be a strictly temporary arrange-
ment.
Muriel Chinn, tennis curator, reports that .some spec-
tators turned out for the matches, in spite of the Friday
a.m. drizzle which necessitated a late launching of the pro-
ceedings. Officials for the game were provided from the fac-
ulty of Physical Education.
The University of Toronto Soccer
Blues opened their two-game week-
end by defeating the RM C. cadets

Blues did not have to work too

McGill Upset
Senior Blue
Soccerites
Last Saturday the University of
Toronto Soccer Blues traveled to
McGill, and lost a very exciting
game to Redmen, five goals to two.
The Blues had just finished playing
three games in four days, and the
heavy grind of playing the fuU hour
and a half three times in 96 hours
began to show its effect in the sec-
ond half of the game. The Redmen,
having rested a full week before the
game, were sharper on the ball to-
wards the end of the second half,
and scored thiee goals in quick suc-
cession to break the tie that existed
at that point, and to go on to win
the game 5-2.
The first half started off at a
fast pace, and the Blues appeared a
little leg weary at this point as the
Redmen pressed hard, and it was
not long before McGill opened the
scoring. The ball was run down the
left wing, and a quick pass to George
Nikolaidis saw the speedy right
winger shoot the ball first time into
the Varsity net.
Tlie Blues then began to uru-avel
themselves as time and again they
c.-rried the ball into McGill ter-
ritory, but failed to tie the score.
The McGill forward again came to
life, and following an attack on the
Varsity goal, Norris Procope scooped
the ball out of a goal mouth
scramble, .skipped around the de-
fence, and slid the ball inside the
goal post making it number two
for McGill.
The the Blues started to show, as
the McGiU defence was pressed back
into its own half, and kept there
for minutes at a time, but Varsity
failed to open the scoring in the
first half.
At the start of the second half
McGill started to attack again, but
the Blues fought back, and this time
id paid off as Manuel Atucha took
pass from the right wing, and
slammed the ball into the net for
Varsity's first goal. This inspired
the Blues forward to persistently
attack the McGill goal, and Red-
man's defence was fast becoming
rattled. The next Varsity goal, re-
sulted from a free kick owarded

The ereat newspapers, the
■ehtiest printing plants, all have
lltime employees whose every
rtrking hours is devoted to dis-
rniDg errors caused by the type-
flchine operator dropping in a
one letter, or otherwise mangl-
precious copy. Hour upon
■ is spent scanning proofs, cor-
ding them, and the seeing that
e corrections are correct, and
U frequent errors creep in to
tiie reader.
Although most typographical er-
rs are unpleasant as they chal-
nge the reader to ascertain for
mself what was originally in-
nded, a great many have been
source of considerable ril>-
ilding.
In recent years The Manitoban
s anintentionally contributed not
few snickers to its readership.
)ut seven years ago, when Dr.
H. Saunderson was daan of arts

on the news page;

few years later, when Pat
Twomey coached Manitoba foot-
fall and basketball. Mrs. Two-
ncy's blessed event was reported

gave birth to a sin."
Perhaps because the news and
.ports are put to bed just prior to
lawn, lieadline writers may be ex-
used lor the odd slip in wording
they are concentrating on fit^
ins f certain space with a speci-
lic number of units of type. We
(.'member only too vividly being
'ibbed about a streamer across the
iports page which read: "BISONS
f I
DROP TWO ON ROAD"; while in
the same issue there appeared on
tlie news page "PEP RALLY TO
PLUG KENNEDY." Who thouglU
twice when they were written?
Not straying very far from
home, we have the classified sec-
tion of The Winnipeg Tribune as
another case in point. One day last
v/inter. under the "used cars for
sale" heading there appeared an
item:
'38 PLYMOUTH CONVERTIBLE
—Cold weather alone has cut the
price on this one. ..A dandy, re-
liable car for the young in heat.
Regular $750. Special $495.
Any who are interested might
drop down to Dominion Motors
and see if it's still there.
Among the more famous typo-
errors was one wliich proof-read-
ers, make-up men, city editors
and rewrite men on the staff of
The Los Angeles Daily News all
missed, as one day there appeared
in big black headlines ; ' 'DR.
SMRZ ILL, CARRIES ON IN
BED."
Even when you catch the error,
the gremlins don't stop worlcing.
This was the experience of a mid-
western small town newspaper
which carried a story on a local
boy returning triumphant from tlie
war. The paper hit the streets
with four-inch headlines pro-
claiming: "BOTTLE - SCARRED
VEl-ERAN RETURNS." When
the error was discovered, the pa-
per ran a second edition whose
same size laeadline read: "BAT-
TLE SCARED VETERAN RE-
TURNS."
The New York Times once
headlined: SAILOR. WITH
CHILD. FOUNDERS IN STREET."
Another famous boner was the fol-
lowing from a certain U.S. paper:
"TRIPLETS BORN IN IDLE
MAN'S HOME."
The big advertiser, alsp. has
not escaped unscathed. On Feb-
ruary 9. 1949. a New York paper
ran a full page ad for S. Klien, the
fourteenth street bargain empor-
ium The ad heralded a gigantic
fur sale, and part of the copy ran
as follows:
"Four Star SPECIAL . . .
included in this sale are just
four NATURAL RANCH MINK
coats . . . S17.99 • - • These
Ciiats are made from norober
one l>nndles of freshly pelted
prime skins. Absolutely guar-
anteed not to be dyed, topped or
blended."
Needless to say the store was
mobbed the next morning.
Just last spring. The New York
Post, under a photo of Pope Pius
X, recently disinterred to be beau-
tified, ran the following picture
credit line: "Stork Club Photo."
So common are these errors in
news items and ads that periodoc-
als make special mention of them.
Time devotes "Headline of the
Week" to the most meaningless
head. Reader's Digest rewards
readers with boners sent into
them. The New Yorker goes out
of its way tc embarrass its fellow
members of the fourth estate
whenever such bloobs occur. Here
are a few selections from The
New Yorker'.s poison pen;
Prom The St. Louis Post-INs-
patcb:
"PARISIAN" BEHEADED FOR
KILLING WIPE BEFORE MIS-
TRESS,"
which prompts The New Y^orker
to say, "Ah. the French! So full
of protocol."
The Gloucester (Mass.) Times
once stated:
"Kozak of the St. Louis Cardi-
nals has a name that reads the
same if yon spell it backward.
Do you know another similar
instance?"
' 'Di Maggio," quips The New
Yorker.
Prom The Palm Beach Post.
"LUCK. SEX. GAVE START TO
WOMAN REPORTER". Says The
New Yorker: "A girl has to start
somewhere."
So, the nest time you see a ty-
pographical error in The Manito-
ban, don't turn away in, disgust
It happens to the greatest, and af-
ter all this is "Canada's Other
Grate."

maiued at 1-0 as the whistle blew
to end the half.
The next half was the same story,
with the Blues doing most of the
attackuig, and again it was Jose
Atucha that notched the second
Varsity goal. This time he took the
ball himself, and worited around the
defence and the goalkeeper, and
placed the ball neatly in the far
comer of the net. That completed
the scoring, but more goals should
have been scored on numerous
occasions.
The Blues played very well in this
game, controlling the play from,
start to finish, with Dave Johnson,
and Ole Friele doing the lion's share
of the work at the two wing liall^
positions, It was here that the Blues
showed their superiority over the
cadets, as the two wing halves had
the ball at their feet for at least
half the game, and used this posses-
sion well in keeping a constant
supply of passes flowing to the for-
ward line.
On defence, Doug Moffat played
a good game, clearing and tackling
well, and backing him up was Bobby
Lane in goal, who though seldom
called upon, was very safe in all
the difficult situations that occur-
red. The best man for the cadets
was Mcpherson at left half-back,
but he was not given too much
support.
The fact that RM..C. had McGUl
down 2-1 at half time in their game
the previous Saturday, and that
McGill Upset
(Continued from Page 6)
against McGill outside the penalty
area. Tom Broadhurst drove the ball
hard at the goal, and the McGill
goaUe just blocked the shot, but
Newt Reed fired the rebound— it
hit the post and Ken Jessop walked
the ball into the net to tie the
score 2-2, The game then became
fa£t and furious as the pace of
the play rose to fever pitch. Again
Varsity forwards pressed goalward,
and Al Logan just missed putting
the Blues out in front as he head-
ed the ball just past the post.
Then the pace began to tell on
the tiring Blues, and the McGill
forwards began to click again. The
Varsity defence held until fifteen
minutes from the final whistle,
when Ted Richardson put McGill in
front as he picked up the ball out of McGiH had"*to f~iiht"hard to win 3"2
a goal-mouth scramble and shot it
into the net to make the score 3-2
for McGill. The Varsity Jorwards
tried to knot the score, but they
failed to pierce the McGill defence.
Once more the McGill forwards
got going, and two quick goals by
each of the two Greek brothers on
the McGill team, George and Jack
Nikolaidis completed the scoring.
Tlie next time these two teams
come together is on November 10th
and it should produce some fire-
works. Tlie Blues will be fully rest-
ed for this game, and should be
able to field their complete team,
liaving had Wally E>ze and Bob
Antoni absent for this game on ac

An Accomplishment J^dt^ertisiwBg ...
Perhaps there's still some hope for Canadian students.
A conference last weekend showed that at least some of
them are capable of positive action.
These promising signs come out of the annual confer-
ence of the International Student Service of Canada at Mc-
Master University where delegates from fifteen universities
plotted the kind of progressive policy which other recent
student conferences have lacked.
• I
For example, they moved the site of next year's sum-
mer seminar to Ceylon, home of the Colombo Plan, and
centre of one of the world's most critical areas. Next year
the seminar delegates will be able to study Asia itself; there
■will be no second-hand references in the "resort" atmosphere
of the Ottawa Valley.
Plans have been made tor a national ISS campaign, run
from the National Office, instead of the small ones run on
individual campi. Evidence points to a country-wide drive
for a specific series of projects, similar to last year's AU-
yarsty Aid, at Toronto.
An exchange plan whereby Canadian students could
study in Europe was suggested. And an improved system of
public relations'was planned.
The only criticism that could be offered was the short-
ness of the conference. Due to lack of time, many subjects
either could not be discussed in full, or had to be passed over.
Prominent among these was the publicity campaign for the
coming national drive. Many felt it should be along the lines
used b.v AVA, but nothing definite was decided.
This was quite a difference from the reactionism seen
at London last month, when the National Federation of Cana-
dian University Students held its conference. Last weekend
saw no retrenchment, no passing on a mandate for another
year, no political bickering, no "raw deals."
The ISS conference was a meeting of students who knew
what they wanted, and wprked towards it without letting
regionalism or personalities interfere.
A Disappointment
The only disappointment of the conference was its fail-
ore to pass a motion requesting NFCUS to reconsider its
withdrawl of an invitation made to a group of Russian stu-
dents to visit Canada.
The motion was defeated 15-12, in a second vote follow-
ing a 13-13 split decision. The deciding votes were cast by
.-the two NFCUS delegates to the conference, and the NF-
CUS representative to the ISS National Committee.
It was pointed out that the withdrawal was directly
contrary to the ISS aims of improved international under-
standing. All but one of the delegates said they approved of
the principle of the motion.
However, those who voted against it did so because they
feared it would harm ISS, that it might give it a Red tag.
They did not feel free to carry out their convictions.
It is disappointing indeed to see principle prostituted to
expediency, but that's what happened at McMaster.

Let us pick up the latest edition
or any well-known national mag-
azine and leaf through tlie bright-
ly colored full-page ads to see
■what lies behind the cat,hy slo-
gans and amazing promises.
A prominent chemical company
in the U.S.A. often runs ads
which show how much coal is
contained in various ■ household
articles. One such ad asked "How
Much Coal in a Soda?" Before
this I never kjiew there was any
coal in a scda. I don't drink
sodas any more. Fine thing to
bring out in the open. Damned
ad spoiled my whole outlook on
life.
How can we forget those breaJc-
fast food ads pointing them-
selves out as "The Breakfast
Food of Champions"? Can you
imagine a healthy broadchested
athlete growing up on nothing
but shredded wheat and ban-
anas? A fine bunch of athletes
we'd have. Personally I'd much
rather go for a two-inch steak
with onions and french fries on
the side— I'll stick to ping-pon^^
if the former is for champions.
A well-known shirt manufac-
facturer tells us " . . . won't
wrinkle ever." Well, that's just
fine and dandy— a shirt that
doesn't wiinkle— what happens if
I decide to move my elbow; I
get a broken arm. And think of
all the clothes iron manufactur-
ers it will throw out of business —
I'll stick to the wrinkable kind.

ture." Why right now I can't see

is a lot of unpaid debts, increased
tuition costs, increased transpor-
tation costs, but I sure can't see
a car.
In six seconds a jet plane can
travel one mile but In Two Sec-*
ends ... is Ready to Work. Who.
cares how fast a jet goes! In ttie
meantime my head is splitting
and I've got to wait two seconds
or that aspirin to go to work. If
that aspirin can't get to work on
time it should be fired. I don't
mind waiting for a ' streetcar or
my girl friend but when I have to
wait for a httle white aspirin,
that's too much!
A pretty girl smiles adorii^ly
and says "I Go For a Man Who
Wears a Hat." I'll bet that bald-
headed guy with a blonde on
eacli arm does not even own a
beanie and he seems to be none
the worse for wear. I'm getting
rid of my chapeau tomorrow.
Then there was an advertise-
ment which told me "To Test...

fan I immediately thir^ of the

all the way out to Osborne Stad-
ium to smoke a cigarette. Besides
I don't smoke anyway so you can
see how useless that ad was.
A soft drink outfit strangely
says "You Like It ... It Likes

In other words if I like it today,
it will like me and if I don't like

What do I care if a silly green
bottle likes me or not. That's just
an example of how silly, and out

OUR READERS WRITE
Dirty Word
Editor, The Varsity:
First I should like to thank
Mr. Grant Newton for answering
my letter printed in The Varsity
Oct. 11. Next I should like Mr.
Newton to read my above men-
tioned letter once more. He
would then be able to see that I
did not draw any conclusions but
merely put forth leading ques-
tions. However, I take his chal- '
lenge as his answer to my ques-
tions. Personally I find it diffi-
cult to reach a definite conclu-
sion to most of Life's vital ques-
tions because the more one thinks
about them and tries to view them
from as many sides as possible,
the more one realizes the relativ-
ity of these problems.
Tliere is one point to which I
must take a firm stand, (pro-
bably because my upbrir^ing has
been different from Mr. New-
ton's.) with regard to Dr. Keen-
leyside's behaviour. Apart from
Dr. Keenlyside's feelings towards
Dr. Schacht. he was the guest of
Sir Mirza Ismail, and has an ob-
ligation of courtesy toward the
latter. What Mr. Newton calls
courage is to me bad manners,
and down-right rudeness, to ex-
press it mildly. However, this
again shows the relativity of
things.
From what I understand of Mr.
Newton's letter, the main goal ii
his opinion is to have
"well-timed shocks". These in t
opinion would produce profound
repercussions, as in this Cftfl
when Dr. Keenleyside was banntiB
from Indonesia. If this is wliiW
Mr. Newton believes, I wonder
it is not men like htm who hsfl
made Peace a "dii-ty word".

ed because Admit-to-lectures cards
were not presented.
The young men and women
are going back to college, which
means that the silly season is
just about upon us. In fact the
football players have been on
the campus for quite some time
preparing for the 1951 edition of
the annual fraud. Gathered at
great pain and expense from the
best high school teams, they
have been earning their pay by
doing push-ups and having a
go at the tackling dummies.
This week, or next, they will
start putting on their show.
Just what entertainment value
the show has is doubtful. The .
coaches, in their greed to win
games and keep earning more
money th an the phi losoph y
profs, have invented the T-
formation which gets rid of the
football. Nobody but the coaches
can make heads or tails of the
game, and the only possible ex-
planation for today's spectators
is that they go out of habit.
The meaning of the West
Point scandal has unfor-
tunately been lost in the
fog of discussion as (o
whether any young man
can stay honest under a
system which makes it so
easy lo cheat. The truth is
that every American col-
lege with a big-lcgaue foot-
ball team is guilty of cheat-
ing on the grades of foot-
bal players. In some cases,
snap courses like basket -
weaving or bait casting are
available for players who
are not bright enough io
pass anything else.
If the players at College ^
can get a B.A. for catchi«?

at the professor, why should th'
West Point players feel undu»
squeamish? Especially si'"^
they were not invited to
Point primarily for their brain
or for their promise as of'''
cers or gentlemen or leader*
in wai', but for the express P^*''
pose of beating hell out of ^'
other football players.
The real question is: Why
we have colleges? Certainly
to give us an autumn subst^'
tute for professional basebi
What we really want is the
old American goal of a genufl.
education for everyone who
capable of absorbing it.

alreatiy under way, m preparation for the show whioh opens November

Cancel UC Operetta
Plan Xmas Concert
The UC Music Club has decided not to have an operetta this year,
according to Graham Jackson, III Music, vice-president of the club.
Last year the Music Club planned on producing "The Merry Widow"
hy Franz Lehar, but financial difficulties forced the club to change
their plans. Their production of -'Naughty Marietta" lost money and as
a result thp club owed money at the start of their school year.
It was then decided to produce "Tlie Chimes of Nonnandy", a non-
royalty play, which would save several hundred dollars in production
costs. The club now plans on presenting a Christmas concert at Hart
House on the three nights reserved for the operetta. Thr main part of
the program would be the UC singers. Jackson has called a rehearsal
for all available singers at the Women's Union Theatre at 5:00 p.m. on
Thursday.
The decision to cancel the operetta was based on the decreased
enrollment which has cut into the money available for subsidization
of the production and the feeling expressed at meetings of the UO
Women's Undergraduate Association and the UC Literary and Athletic
Society that there might be a danger of the club curtailing Its other
activities i£ an operetta was produced. The Music Club is responsible
ior the record hours, UC singers and the musicales.
The operetta has been cancelled for the one year only and club
officials hope that the Music Club will be in sound enough financial
condition at the end of the year to permit the production of an operetta
next year.
The operetta was hampered by considerations other than the fin-
ancial situation of the club. Bob Osborne, an occasional student, was
forced to resign as staye director of the operetta because of conflicting
activities, and it was found difficult to obtain scripts and music.

dragons. The other is a mourning
ring in the form of a skeleton. This
is, of course, rather hard to
imagine. One has to See it to ap-
preciate it.
Of special interest to the ladies
will be the hat-pin with the ame-
thyst head. About six inches long,
it resides in a leather sheath. In
the old days, a woman's best friend
was often her hat-pin.
Then there is the grandfather of
all pocket watches — the pocket
sundial. This clever little device
has not only a face, and an arm
on a hinge, but also a compass with
which to adjust the position of the
simdlal.
And now the rooster needs a word
of explanation. His body is a hol-
Jowed-oufc cocoanut, and his head,
feet, wings and tail, gold-plated
silver. Actually, the bird is a wine
jug. His head comes off and his
neck becomes a spout. As he is
tilted, his wings flap open. He even
has a whistle in his tail, and what's
more — it works.
The collection also contains three
of the oldest books in Canada.
Dignified, elegant and learned, they
call attention to themselves with
brilliant illuminations and strange
indecipherable letters. The pages
are sheepskin, and the ink is an in-
teresting concoction of charcoal,
honey and wine. The most amazing
thing about the books is the fact
that they were written entirely by
hand.
Of course, there are many other
things worthy of note. Such curios
as the fourteenth centui-y drinking
cup supported by a pair of bird's
legs, the piece of a head-dress worn
by a Chinese empress, and the box
made out of solid bloodstone are
all strangely fascinating.
And who doesn't enjoy being
strangely fascinated?

Enrolment Drop
Report RevealiS
The expected continued drop in partially accounts for the 1.399 de-
enrollment at this University has
been revealed in a Registrar's re^
port issued recently. Total registra-
tion for this session (to date) is
11,110 (1,399 short of last years
count of 12.509). The 1949-50 session
saw a grand total of 14,141 students
registered here.
A lessening of the burden on the
faculty and administrative staffs,
closer communication of students
with professor'i and lecturers, and
various budget difficulties result as
student enrollment decreases,
The University of Toronto still
continues to be the largest univer
sity in Canada and the British
Commonwealth. A drop of 1,393 ex-

DVA PAY
The first DVA payment will be
made on Tuesday, Oct. 30 to ap-

of 1300 to 1400 from last year.
The faculties of dentistry, en-
gjnerrinr> architecture, medicine,
OCE, and the School of Gradu-
ate Studies will be paid by DV.4
representatives. AU other facul-
ties and colleges will be paid by
their own rcffistrars or secretar-
ies In general, payments will
start at 10 ajo. but each faculty
will make iU own arrangements.
The Varsity is crying for male
reporters. For some unfathomable
reason they are not applying for a
position which presents at the same
time, interest, excitement, and good
company. What Is the matter?
The Varsity is not alone In its
Plight, for the lack of male inter-
est has put a serious crimp In
other organizations as well. On the
night of the last open meeting of
the University College Literary and
Athletic Society only a small num-
ber showed up. In past years seats
were to be at a premium. Tiiat night
there was a wide choice, and half
the attendance was made up of
graduates.
Tlie All Varsity Chorus is at pres-
ent trying to get under way. Unless
more men enrol they, too, will be
seriously hampered through hav-
ing a weak bass and tenor section.
If you are a male with the ability
to hold a tune there Is a place for
you, chorus officials say. Previous
experience is not a necessity.
Over in Victoria College they are
running into the same difficulties.
In the Victoria College Music Club
enquiries produced the same news.
Men are not turning out to the
college functions in numbers com-
parable to years gone by.

idea to aid the Red Feather driv«
this year.
Les Carter Is selling Christmas
cards, and to increase sales and at
the same time to aid the Red
Feather campaign he is turning
over 10% of the total sales to the
Red Feather. This percentage is
considerably gi-eater than 10% ot
his profits.
Carter li working his way
through college and could not
otherwise afford to contribute to
the drive
There are approximately 200

"Mutual Understanding Bridge
To World Peace"- - Cadbury
"The greatest threat to world ac-
cord today is the colossal misunder-
etanding of the USSR with regard
to life in the West, and of the West
■with regard to life in Russia," said
Mr. Paul Cadbury in a meeting with
A group of friends last Priday. "Any
attempt to bridge this misunder-
standing is a real move for peace".
He went on and pointed out that
the West should try to promote a
better Christianity and a better
Democracy as a model of life at Its
fullest.
Mr. Cadbury was s member of a
group of seven English Friends
(Quakers) who visited Moscow in
July last summer to attempt some
measure of agreement between the
two power blocks. His talk was de-
livered to a number of friends last
Friday and this report was given
to a meeting of CAMPOR last
Monday afternoon.
The group was composed of
Industrialists, scientists, professors
and religious leaders. While in Rus-
sia they visited a great number of
factories and mills on short notice.
They went to a Baptist Church in
Moscow where the Minister spoke
to a capacity audience of J500
seated, and another SOO standing
at the back.
There were three outstanding
things revealed by the visit stated
Mr. Cadbury. In general they are,
that the people in Russia are well
fed and well clothed, that there is
a total lack of understanding with
the way the rest of the world lives,
and that there is a real belief tiiat
the western world is being held
down by a wicked capitalistic gov-
ernment.
With regard to the standard of
living in Russia, it was generally
agreed by the whole party that,
though the standard of living was
not as high as in the United States
and Canada, still it was as good
as that of England.
Continuing, Mr. Cadbury said that
the ignorance of thfe average Rus- ;
sian was appalling. "As high as 99
percent of the people lack any
knowledge of the West's living stan-
dards. Industrialisation, and scien-
tific progress, HiIs makes for a
boundless pride in the Russian ad-
vances, a pride which is only seen
elsewhere in the United States," he
said.
Russians find constant proof for
their belief that the West is held
down by the capitalist in selected
quotations from economic journals,
pointing out the peace scare in the
Wall Street price indices. These oc-
curred during the Korean Armistice
talks In particular.
Summing up, Mr. Cadbury felt
that there was a real feeUng of
prosperity in Russia today, and that
if the misunderstanding gap could
be bridged, there would be a real
chance for peace.

Is Arrested
Kingston (CUP)— What do you do
if you are unable to get yourself
a date on a football weekend?
One ardent Queen's fan, a mem-
ber of the Queen's Brass Band,
was unable to find a companion at
London for the Saturday night fro-
lic. Unhappily, he decided that
his horn would have to substitute.
Police did not take kindly to
his outpourings of soulful music
in a downtown hotel, Tiowever. Af-
ter being warned to stop, the ill-
fated musician adjourned to a
friend's hotel where a boisterous
party was in progress. There he
resumed his playing.
' Police reappeared and searched
tbe room in vain. But a final blast
gave away his hiding place — under
a bed! Needless to say. the offic-
ers retaliated convincingly.

The McGill Skulemen, to get up

dance. One hundred and fifty
bursting balloons must have added
to the ballyhoo.
This year, in the University of
Toronto Drama clubs, one-act
plays will be more prominent than
three-act plays. Victoria College,
Trinity College and Le Cercle
Prancais will undertake the larg-
er productions in addition to pre-
sentations of one-act plays.
St. Michael's, at present work-
ing without a drama chairman,
will present one-act plays only,
some with the Player's Guild, and
others for the University of To-
ronto Drama Committee. The St.
Michael's Music and Drama Club
intends to have a closer working
relationship between the two
parts of the Club and will so spend
the time usually alloted to the
production of a three-act play.
Con Puesta y Sin Novio" is the
first scheduled play for tbe Span-
ish Club. Then, before Christmas,
the Club has a novel presentation,
something previously not attempt-
ed. A Spanish-style Christmas
program with a Mexican flavor,
"Posados Mejicanas", with spec-
ial songs and a story peculiar to
the Spanish people is being pre-
pared. "El Sombrero de Tres
Picos" by Alarcon is the last dra-
matic contribution for the year,
coming at the end of February.
Victoria College has Priestley's
"An Inspector Calls" for presen-
tation on Jan. 10, 11, 12. Several
one-act plays will be presented
for the University of Toronto
Drama Committee and others will
be presented at" the Vic Drama
Club's monthly meetings.
Trinity's Drama Club has de-
cided to produce a thre?-act play
for Feb. 5 and repeated for five
niglits. As yet. no play has been
chosen although over thirty have
been considered. Herert Whit-
taker, Drama Critic for the Globe
and Mail, will be back directing
the play as he did last year. In
addition, there will be monthly
play readings and four or five one-
act plays.
Le Cercle Francais has the
shortest program for the year and
will present a three-act play, Ra-
cine's "Les Plaideurs", while the
UC Players' Guild has the long-
est program scheduled. No three-
act play is being planned for this
year. There will be a series of
one-act plays, produced for the
students' enjoyment, but having-
the definite purpose of giving the
actors and those working behind
the footlights who intend to make
a career of the theatre, an oppor-
tunity to learn all they can about it
and the mechanism by which it
works.

Of rigid regulation of this law have
resulted in a virtual extinction ol
jay-walking.
For years Manitoba's two main
exports were smoked goldeye and
jay-walkers. Someone cutting diag-
onally across Granville and Hast-
ings in Vancouver, or crossing
Yonge street in Toronto in the
n'-lddle of a block, was known in-
stantly as a Winnipeger. Our fame
was dominion wide and Extended
even beyond Canada's boundaries.
Not since the trolley- dodging ac-
tivities of the inhabitants of Brook-
lyn earned for their team the
name of "Dodgers" had one city
given itself so wholeheartedly to
the art of eluding traffic.
People from all walks of life
jaywalked. On a good day young-
sters suitable for kindergarten and
grey-haired pioneers could be seen
moving swiftly through i-ush hour
traffic at the same crossing. A
businessman and his stenographer
might both traverse Portage be-
tween the same two streets. The
art had its followers among old
and young, rich and poor, with-
out distinction.

Few motorists or traffic cops
realized to what extent the pedes-
trians they swore at were prac-
tising an art. For jay-walkhig
represented one of the highest
forms of artistic expression. Win-
nipeggers had to be trained to it
from birth; few outsiders ever
became true artists. To see an
opening in a stream of cars, dart
into it. stop suddenly as danger
loomed, pirouette, leap once more,
and emerge unscathed with the
successfully crossed took keen re-
flexes and highly developed mus-
cles. To do this in the traditional-
ly graceful manner, showing no
concern over possible danger, de-
manded considerable artistic tem-
perament.
It was not without significance
that while Winnipeg was turning
out expert jay-walkers, it also de-
veloped the finest ballet company
in Canada. The same high stand-
ards of perfection apply to bofn
Many was the jay-walker who ditu
for his art.

On authority of the Board of
Stewards, the Hart House Art
Gallery is to be open every Wednes-
day from 4 to 5 p.m. to the women
of the University, staff and under-
graduates. A member of the Art
Committee will be in charge.
The beginning of the art gallery
dates back: to 1916 when Mi-. Vincent
Massey indicated that it a Univer-
sity Art Club were founded it mi'^ht
be possible to provide quarters for
it in Harr. House. The university of
Toronto Sketch Club was founded
in 1917, holding its first meeting
in the Chemistry and Mining Build-
ing. Except lor one luncheon that
year, no further meetings took place
until March, 1920.
In the mear.time Hart House
opened November 11. 1919, with the
present Art Gallery. Professor
Barker Fah-ley was the first chair-
man A the Sketch Room Committee,
followed in 1924 by Professor Har-
djlph Wasteneys.
„ The latter, when interviewed on
the subject, recalled some of the
early days of the committee. The
break the law and cross with the
lights against them. But they do
so furtively and usually for some
practical purpose— to catch a bus
or to avoid being late for work.
Gone is the old-time enthusiast
who jay-walked for the joy of it,
whether he was in a hurry or not.
The passing of the art was per-
haps inevitable. It placed too
great a stress on individual initia-
tive to survive in a society fae-
comhig increasingly collectivist.
Even though they knew it had to
be. lovers of jay-walking may well
be permitted to mourn its extinc-
tion.
Winnipeg has lost something
fine.

Many local artists took great In

In 1922 the now famous Hart House
Art Collection was begun with the
purchase of two pictures — one by
A. Y. Jackson and one by H. S.
Palmer — witli money partly donated
by tlie graduating year of 1922.
Later an advisory committee con-
sisting of Lawren Harris, A. J.
Casson and Gustav Hahn was form-
ed to help the committee select pur-
chases.
Throughout this whole period the
purpose of the original Sketch Club
was maintained by holding regular
art classes. This year's class, under
the instruction of Carl Schaeffer,
held its organization meeting this
month, with an enrolment of 80.
In 1936, because of its broaden-
ing activities, the Sketch Com-
mittee's name was changed to the
Art Committee. Typical of these ac-
tivities is the sponsorship of the
Lee Collection of Medieval Treasures
presented to the University in 1941
by Viscount and Viscountess Lee of
Pareham. This collection is on view

A Fine Ideal
"... To save succeeding gener-
ations from the scourge of war |
,'. . to reaffirm our faith in human
Tights, in the dignity and worth
of the human person, in the equal
rights of men and women . . .
to promote social progress and
better standards of living in larg-
er freedom ... to practice tol-
erance ... to unite our strength
to maintain international peace."
Fifty nations got together and
■wrote these glowing words. It
was at a time when they were
most needed, and a real feeling
that we were entering an era of
.peace, cooperation and under-
standing. A lot of people had
their faith in mankind renewed.
Peace was all. Not just by poli-
tical agreements, though. For the
men who drafted the United Na-
tions charter in such words saw
how much food, education, self-
respect and quality before the law
contribute to peace. They said
so in no uncertain terms. For it
Is individuals to whom the United
Nations ideally directs itself.
Then came peace and the UN
began its real effort to take the
ideal and make it work . . , "To
save succeeding generations from
the scourge ol war, which twice
in our lifetime has brought un-
told sorrow to mankind . . ."
Attempt* to bring nations to-
gether to maintain peace are, of
course, not new. The earliest,
perhaps, goes back to Greek
times: the last fatal attempt was
the unlamented League of Nations.
We thought we had gone the
League one better, this time. All
the belligerent allies agreed to
take part in the organization this
time.
This time it was going to
work! The UN was going to set
a precedent.
There is no denying that the
UN had the right principles. They
hod a ring in them that catches
our imagination. We all believed
that we had built a strong founda-
tion on which to rest our hopes
for the future.
"... To practice tolerance and
live together in peace with one
another as good neighbours ... to
ensure the acceptance of principles
and the institution of methods,
that armed force shall not be
used, save in the common inter-
est . * ."

PEACE
In Our
This Article was Contributed by Professor F. H. Under-
hill. Member of the Department of History, at the
University of Toronto.
Everybody wants peace. It was in my under-
graduate days that I read for the first time the
remark that the prayer of the statesmen of Europe
was not "<jive peace in our time, O Lord" but "Give
peace on our terms, O Lord. " This was in the far-
off da-ys when World War I was looming up. The
remark still contains the fundamental truth about
the problems of peace-making.
Everybody wants peace. But when Soviet spokes-
men proclaim their profound desire for peace
what they really mean is that they want to over-
throw our western capitalist-socialist-democratic
system without having to fight a world war for the
pmpose. And the phony peace petitions circulated
by their stooges in western countries ^re designed
to enrol as many western innocents as possible in
this project of smoothing the way for Soviet ex-
pansion westward. Likewise, when our western
statesmen proclaim their desire for peace what they
mean is that they want to preserve the present
way of life in the West and to stop Communism
from overrunning Asia and Africa without having
to fight a word war. Though both of the two great
political groups talk about peace, their aims are
mutually incompatible.
This means that the only peace we are likely
to see in our day is the present condition of dan-
gerous tension. But the hopeful feature of this
situation is that, while the cold war may flame up
into a hot world-wide war, it may also die down
into a condition of fairly peaceful "co-existence"
when the Kremlin leaders realize that there is no
chance of attaining their aims without engaging
in a world war. Under American leadership we
have set ourselves to build up western military
power to the point at which this fact will become
clear to them. The purpose of our present rearm-
ament policies is not to fight a third world war
but to prevent one.
When the United Nations was founded in 1945
its constitution was based on an optimistic pic-
ture of the world situation which has turned out
to be quite unfounded. The United Nations organ-
vization was quite a piece of machinery that would
work perfectly as long as the Great Powers agreej
with each other. The system of Collective Security '
meant that the overwhelming force of the combin,
ed Great Powers, backed up by the smaller powerj
in council, would be turned against any interna-
tional wiong-doer in future. And with this politic,
al machinery of the the United Nations in good
working order, the international organization could
then proceed to beneficent social and economio
activities.
Of course it hasn't worked out that way. When
the Great Powers disagree fundamentally the pos-
session of the veto in the hands of any on^ of
fhem renders the Security Council completely iu-
effective. But the fortunate accident that ihe
Russians had foolishly absented themselves fn ,,,
the security Council at the time of the Korean .,;
gression, followed by the brilliant constitutiomu
manoeuvre of the Americans in transferring de-
cision of such questions from the Security Counc4i
to the General Assembly (where there is no veto
in operation), has restored the effectiveness of the
United Nations machinery for the moment. And if
a general war can be avoided for the next two or
three yeai's, the strength of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization may establish a balance of
power whicli will turn the Soviet rulers away from
dreams of expansion for a generation or so.
We North Americans, having lived a sheltered
life in the nineteenth century, tend unconsciously
to assume that peace is the natural condition of
mankind. Now when we discover that we shall
have to shoulder the main burden of protectins
the western world, and that peace can be secuTJJ'
only by our own strenuous efforts and prolonged
sacrifices, we are prone to complain against the
hard fate that has flung us into this world which
is so unlike our dreams of human brotherhood.
We have always had a weakness for constitution-
mongering, and we visualized the constitution ot
the United Nations as a typical piece of North
American machinery which would automatically,
manufacture peace while we lived happily (and ir-
responsibly) ever afterwards. Such automatic ma-
chinery may be invented to produce motor can
and refrigerators, bnt not to regulate human rela-
tions. If we have the patience to work the imper-
fect machinery of . UN and NATO as effectively as
possible, improving it as we learn from experience,
we may avoid a third world war and then use the
time thus gained to lay the basis of something like
a genuine peace.

Just what happened to that
ideal. In just six years, there
seems to be nothing left of it. It
is forgotten in the merry game of ,
cat and mouse. What are prin-
ciples worth when each nation is
back at the old game of: "What
is his motive behind this move."
"... to practice tolerance and
live together in peace with one
another as good neighbours . . .
to reaffirm faith in fundamental
human -Tights ... to develop
friendly relation* among nations
based on respect for the principles
of equal rights and self-deter-
mination of oeoples , . ."
With the failure of the United
Nations to find some solution for
the difficulty of nations working
together, to release jealously
guarded national rights for the
greater good of all, people have
again become bitter and cynical.
We pass over the ideal, and look
at an attitude of resignation al-
most at the prospect of another
war, at least in North America,
There is no end of pessimism
to such contemplation.
Yet let us not overlook one fac-
tor about the attitude of nations.
They have never, ceased to pour
their share of money into the UN.
They have continued to send their
best people to represent them in
the world body. Is it just a pipe
dream, the last remnant of a
will to believe, or make other
people believe that we can still
"unite our strength to maintain
peace and security?"

The United Nations Club will
hold an open panel discussion
on whether "The Creation of
the SUte of Israel is a Cause
of Current Unrest in the Middle
East". Mr. Vincent Price,
President of the National Unit-
ed Nations Association will wel-
come the club on its formation.
What It Does
While the diplomats meet at the conference tables in the General
Assembly and Security Council to discuss the future of the world, Unit-
ed Nations agencies attempt to improve conditions thi'oughout the worJd
in a very material way.
It is estimated that someone somewhere in the world dies of tuber-
culosis every seven seconds. To combat this red scourge, the World
Health Organization of the U-N. have organized a global war on T.B.
During 1948-49, more than fifty million children in Europe and North
Africa were examined and some twenty million vaccinated. Large scale
campaigns are also tailing shape or have been accomplished in China,
India. Ceylon, Pakistan and other countries.
WHO has allocated two million dollars for VEiccinating in Euiope and
a further two million for use in other areas. Through the UN agencies,
an international health campaign unique in the history of man's .struggle
against disease, is sweeping to victory. In 1951. WHO's budget is $6,150,000.
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the VN., an organization
to raise levels of nutrition and standard.'; of living, is working to improve
production and distribution of food products. FAO has turned out studies
on quantities of food required in the world, showing that pre-war pro-
duction was so low that only one-third of the population had enough
to eat. PAO prepared a twenty-five year development program for
Greece, also recommended improvemenis in methods of agriculture in
Poland. Siam and Venezuela. In addition FAO held r-p-icultural schools
in Europe to bring agricultural workmen up to date on modern tech-
niques.
One of the major problems in agriculture is soil erosion and Its al-
lied disaster, fioods. Nearly half a billion human beings in the valleys of
the great rivers of Asia continually face the danger of floods and con-
sequent famine. About one-fifth of the entire population of Asia. 200
million people, live under the protection of dikes. The Economic Com-
mission for Asia and the Far East is making field trips to the major
rivers of Burma, South China, Cambodia. Ceylon, India, 'Indonesia, etc.
Meetings have been organized for international co-operation on flood
control in these countries, to prevent floods In a neighbouring country.
This international co-operation in the East is another "First" for the u.N.

What It Is
W^. existence of the United Na-
bns lies in the power of an idea
\ perhaps a feeling. It could be-
ipressed as the idea of peaceful
s-existence among the world's na-
ms or more realistically the de-
rmination to avoid war. The
nited Nations is a group of build-
gs in New York and scattered
lout the world, A picture of the
icretariat Building or the UN flag
a material symbol, of Its physi-
1 existence, but the United Na-
>ns is more than an organization,
group of people or a collection of
ejects, plans and operations.
"Where does the essence of the
nited Nations exist? It exists in
e power of this ideal or deter-
nation to move men to action

which men are ready to die for.
There are few rules or guides.
Already the limitations of the
veto are apparent as a means of
conducting business. But its aboli-
tion will not solve any problem. It
merely prevents it from being dis-
cussed. The absurdities of voting
by national sovereign states in or-
der to decide questions which af-
fect peoples not in a political sense
but in their daily lives have plagued
the U.N. However in the day to day
work of the councils and anony-
mous committees new understand-
ings and techniques of compromise
are being worked out. It is not
dramatic or eye-catching work but
hei-e the positive advance toward
learning to live together is being
made. The very atmosphere of
such an international institution
tends to submerge narrow preju-
dice or arbitrary nationalist ap-
proach.
What prevents people from co-
operating on measures to benefit
all? Physically all the conditions
are ideal. The problem must lie
then in the minds of men and
whether there is any reality to the
United Nations depends on all the
people whose attitudes bear on its
decisions.

an their deputies submerge per-

Today at Varsity Stadium be-
tween 1:00 and 5:00 p.m.. Univer-
sity of Toronto students will have
a great opportunity to cheer their
senior and intermediate intercolle-
giate track and field teams to the
intercollegiate championships in
their respective groups.
However, it is far from a fore-
gone conclusion that Toronto will
win both intercollegiate titles. It
seecns probable that we will win
the Intermediate championship, as
we have won it by a good margin
for the past two or three seasons.
No such confident statement can
be made about the senior cham-
pionship. McGill won it last year in
Montreal by a very narrow mar-
gin; and the McGill team is rated
as Varsity's chief opposition again
this year.
Either McGIlI or Varsity will
ikely be the winner of the senior
championship, with the other team
close second. The last race will
be the mile relay event, an im-
portant event for the simple rea-
son that a win in it is worth twice
as many points as a win in any of
the individual events.
Tlie combination of the two inter-
collegiate meets into one provides
what will probably be the largest
and finest track and field meet
held in greater Toronto since the
Canadian Senior Championships
and British Empire Games Trials
were held at East York Memorial
Stadium in August 1949. Not only
will the senior meet as a whole be
a very close and hard-fought
battle, but every event will be a
closely contested one:
Even though competition may
not be so close for the intermediate
title, many of the separate events
will provide some evenly matched
competition. This is the quality
that makes a meet full of excite-
ment for the spectators as well as
the participants, A common cccn-
, plaint of spectators against track
and field meets is that there are
too many intervals of inactivity
during a meet, but this prob],
will be pretty well taken care
son
today since-the events will alt,
nate betwewi intermediate
senior competition and the waitj]
for something to happen will be^ Jei
to a minimum.
In each of the intermediate
senior meets there are 15 evenj
broad jump, high Jump, pole van
Javelin, shot put, discus, high ai
low hurdles, sprints, distance rm
and finally a relay. An intercol](
giate team is composed of, at t|

The latest communique from the
office of Mr. Warren Stevens re-
veals that thbis year's Blues' hock-
ey team will have a new coach.
Bill Wade, by no means a new-
comer to Varsity hockey circles,
■will take over the reins from last
year's coach Wally Haider.
Waile brings with him an im-
pressive record as coach of both
the liitermediales and the now de-
funct Junior B's. He succeeded
in piloting the former to the league
championship last year and before
that had brought home two cup
winpers in his three years as men-
tor of the Juniors. Previous to Ibis
Bill played with the Blues for two
seasons after the war.
Filling the shoes of Haider, who
has retired due to business obli-
gations, is by no means a small
task, but Wade's coaching ability,
already highly rated should prove
to be the insurance factor in the
Blues' attempt to keep the silver-
ware here.
Jack Kennedy now busy guiding
the Intermediate Football team
will replace Wade this year as
- coacii of the hockey Intermedi-
ates. Don Hyde, second year Vic
student, has been appointed man-
ager of the Blues for the coming
season and will take over the post
held last year by Pat McLough-
lin, who has since graduated from
O.C.E.

were the most important plays of
the game.
Skule kicked off to Dents to start
the game, and Dents rolled thi-ough
for two first downs with Gilbert
and Lefebre carrying. The Engineers
then blocked their kick and Day
ran his left end for fifteen after
it appeared that he had been trap-
ped behind his line. Pete BanrSster
who played well went for three and
Day passed to Bob Cockfield for a
first down. Dents held on two line
plays and thefl broke through to
block I>ay's kicfe. Again the I>ents
had their kick blocked as Jim Clark
of Skule booted the ball across the
Dents line. SPS only managed a
single for Dents recovered.
A couple of short kicks on either
side and two pass interceptions by
Skule enabled them to hem in Dents
in their own end until the half.
The third quarter began with the
Engineers kicking off and holding
the Dentists. Paul Evans made
nice runback of the punt and Day's
quick kick was taken by Jack Wall
who was stepped dead. O'Connor
hoofed a fifty yard punt from be-
hind his line after two penalties
set them way back. Day's quick kick
on first down went for a single

tackle on Jack Simpson.
By virtue of another blocked kick
Skule hemmed in the luckless Dents
again. Horton's kick for the En-
gineers was brought out to the one.
After SPS took Den't high first
down kick. Day passed to Smale
on the 5 but was nailed for a loss
running the left end as the quarter
ended.
The teams changed ends and
Day's run off kick formation from
the 15 for the major was nullified
on -account of a clipping penalty.
Dents ran for two first downs after
they took possession and George
Little's good kick set the Skulemen
back farther than at any other
point in the game. Wall then inter-
cepted an SPS pass and the Dents ^
seemed at last to be rolling. How- i
ever, their attack bogged down and
they failed to advance any farther.
Skule took over and marched down
the field sparked by Bannister who
eventually carried over centre from
the 15 for the score. Even's con-
vert failed and the game ended in
the dark.
Bannister, Evans, Horton, and
Day starred in the SPS backfield.
while Smale, Hugh Garret, Fred
©pratt, and Bill Jeffry were out'
standing along the line. Perhaps it
was an off-day for the Dents or
the wet field may have lathered
them. At any rate, they failed to get
an attack rolling like that with
which they bowled over Meds on
Friday.

observers were sent by the Nation-

ommended afterwards that there
was no hope of compromise with
lUS. However, one of those ob-
servers, Denis Lazure, returned
from this summer's conference
with renewed hope of a compro-
mise between both organizations.
A meeting will be held In Decem-
ber at which lUS and the western
student unions will attempt to find
some common meeting grounds on
which to base co-operation.)
There was no ranting and rav-
ing between east and west at the
lUS conference in Prague, but a
realistic discussion of the needs of
students throughout the world.
Among the recommendations
made at the conference were:
1. Material needs, such as
books and technical equipment,
and hospital equipment.
2. Abolition of discrimination;
this is especially true for colonial
countries. For example, in Al-
geria Arabs make up the major-
ity of the population, but only 7%

Seminar
rhe basic concept of the Inter-
itional Summer Seminar is, by
inging students from different
lUDlries together for an ap-
•eciable length of time, to instill
lliem an understanding of the
■oblenis faced by students of
her lands.
This year's seminar was held
Ottawa, in a French-Cana-
an boarding school. It was an
:ceilent site since, in addition to
ng near the nation's capital,
brouebt together the French-
inadian and English-Canadian
Itures.
p-^iBhly people from 11 different
lintries were present at the sem-
from such different places
Patcistan and India, France,
Hand, and Israel. In cases
lere several delegates came
im one country, it was possible
see an excellent cross-section
student opinion: for example in
[h the Indian and Paltistan
legations, there were intense na-
nallsts, yet at the same time
•derates.
Jhe subject of the seminar was
Sic Needs and Contributions of
&t and West", a vague subject
!h divided up into an Intro
ion to Canada for the non-
adlans. and an introduction to
for the non-Asians.
0 intensive program of lec-
:S and discussions lasting from
. ^m. to 11:30 p.m. was used

tatives. One of the best meth-
was the panel system, in

4. The devotion of science for

5. Full democratic liberties, in-
cluding a free student press.

and sport activities.
The editorial policy of the lUS
press releases should reflect the
policy of the governing body,
which should in its turn reflect the
opinion of the majority of the
members of lUS.
Canada was given a good name
at the conference, when Denis
Lazure invited a group of Rus-
sian students to Canada.

Berlin
The World Festival of Youth and
Students for Peace was a mani-
festation of the desiie of the world'"
youth for peace. It showed youth';
determination to discuss the prob
lemE.
104 countries were represented In-
Berlin, in the largest and most rep-
resentative student rally of recent
years. Every section, class and poli-
tical opinion was represented.
For example, one-half of the Brit
ish delegation represented the
various political clubs, and had
nothing to do with the British Peace
Movement. The Festival saw the
first Australian aborigine to leave
his country for an international stu-
dent conference. There were Boy
Scouts from India, Junior Red Cross
■workers from West Germany, and
DeGaulUsts from Prance.
The stad€nts were brought to-
gether by cultural programs, art ex-
hibits, and games. The Festival
showed that the greatest talent
comes out when peace is the theme.
Canadian representatives were
impressed by the cultural program
of Russia, China and Korea, in
which performances were done by
students and workers, not profes-
sionals. The program gave colonial
students a chance to show their
national cultures to an international
body for the first time.
The Canadian and American
Press did not give a fair impres-
sion of the Festival. In spite of their
reports, the meals were exceUent
(meat three times a day), student
relations were free, and everyone
was healthy.
The 55 Canadians were well-re-
ceived and won the admu-ation of
many thousands of persons through-
out the world, due to theh- cultural
program which consisted partly of
slngmg "Vive La Canadienne" and
■■I'm Going to Lay Down My Sword
and Shield, Down by the Riverside."

perienced at the conference.
The topic of the seminar was the
Declaration of Human Rights. Dis-
cussion centred about the fact that
opportunities for men are not on a
par with women; the duties and
responsitoilities of youth; the mean-
ing and purpose of the World As-
sembly of Youth; the need for sup-
port of UNICEEP.
Two-thirds of the Canadian delte-
gates were under 26 years of age;
it was a French and Englisb-Cana-
dian group.

Pax Romana
Canada was represented at the
Pax- Romana Conference at
Rheims, Prance, by delegates
from the Canadian Federation of
Catholic College Students, an or-
ganization representing fourteen
Catholic colleges from HaUfax to
Windsor.
An important outcome was the
solidification, on a national level,
of the six major Cathohc student
groups in North America. Pour
of these, including Newman C ub
and CFCCS, are Canadian, the
other two are American.
It was decided, following a one-
year trial, which proved success-
ful to publish an all-English edi-
tion of the Pax Romana Journal,
which was formerly published al-
ternately in four different lan-
guages. .
Relief and educational activi-
ties were also considered. There
are D P.'s studying under the aus-
pices of Pax Romana in Prance,
Holland and Germany.
For the second year in a row.

Myopia Today
Six years ago today, the peoples of the United Nations
set forth their aims in one of the most idealistic documents
ever written. In retrospect these aims may seem to many,
most beautiful, but almost naive.
This is due partially to the tendency of the public
(throughout the world) to fi.^c their minds on the political
functions of the United Nations and ignore the social and
economic programs.
Can the United Nations prevent a Third World War?
Here is the one question which is vital to everyone. Here
is the one point at which all the peoples of the world feel
their interests to be most intimately connected with the
future of the United Nations. After all, bombs can drop
anywhere, and if they don't get you, rationing will.
However, the events of the past few years have shown
all too clearly that the future of the world lies with the
decisions of the United States and Russia rather than with
the United Nations as a whole. This was undoubtedly
inevitable, but has produced a certain cynicism in peoples'
minds as to the validity of the ideals expressed in the
Chapter. Even the term "United Nations", in the face of
the present dichotomy within it, will bring worth a wry
smile from most people.
Of course, this view is all very unfair to the United
Nations. Every organization falls embarrassingly short of
the ideal. Not only that, this failure to measure up to per-
fection is intensified because of the very narrow view which
people have of the United Nations.
As was suggested before, too much emphasis has been
placed on the political side of the UN and very little on the
very real progress made in the field of social welfare and
economic development. This corresponds roughly to our
interest in international affairs. While we can sit quite
calmly at breakfast while Asia starves, let a dog be hit by a
car and we are immediately upset. Whatever fails to touch
us directly, fails to arouse our interest. If Asia will starve
quietly, let it, but if it is a question of choosing between
war and food for Asia, the choice is clear — or so our
attitude indicates
Man is essentially a myopic creature. In the Middle
Ages he could see no farther than the community round
about him and its concerns were his own. Ambitious kings
provided him with glasses so that it would become clear
that he was part of a nation and its interests were also his.
It is becoming increasingly clear that we need some good
strong international lenses for our spectacles.
If the United Nations is to be a lasting success, people
will have to become world citizens, as they are in fact, if
not in awareness. Of course, we have had the international
scene foisted upon us, continually during the last few years.
But for the most part, we have thought of the United
Nations only as a solver of crises, as' a means of keeping
war away from our doorsteps.
A tremendous act of imagination is required to become
a member of the world community. Whether or not man's
mind can encompass this idea is a vital question. Up till now
the prospect of war has made him aware of the proximity
of other nations.
The United Nations is attempting to perform a great
task, that of molding the world into one sympathetic unit.
lYet, unless the citizens of the world have the vision to
see themselves as being just that, the whole work will fail.
,We are part of the United Nations, if the term has any
meaning, and the challenge of internationalism is our own.
Editor, The Varsity:
At the present time I am suffering from
faint pangs of nausea as I wing my way
back to Dalhousie in Halifax, after a very
inspiring ISS conference at McMaster Uni-
versity. Unfortunately the nausea is not
from the smooth comfort of this aircraft,
but from a sensationalistic and newsmon-
gering report of the ISS conference in
your usually reputable paper.
The article on page two of Monday's
Varsity is entitled — "ISS Conference
Discuss Visit of Soviet Students." To
quote: "In a close second vote . . . ISS con-
ference defeated what was almost a vote
of censure on NFCUS." This is not re-
porting — it is editorializing and should
be on that page of your paper — I take
strong exception to it. The ISS conference
had no intention of rapping NFCUS. We
were vitally concerned with the damage
which the NFCUS decision, though done
with sincerity, may do to the good name
of Canadians as unprejudiced and mature
students. Your reporter vainly tried to
correct his damaging statement later, in
quoting Mel Rotham of McGill University,
who stressed this very point, as did the
great majority of delegates.
Quoting further, ". . . it was a subject
for heated discussion . . . between what
amounted to the two" rival camps of McGill
University supporting it, and the Uni-
versity of Toronto." Fourteen universi-
eX
ties were represented at the confereii.
Was your reporter attenipting to set up
pro-Soviet and an anti-Soviet bloc in t|
minds of your readers ? We were not (
cerned with politics. The question res
ed into one of anxiety on the part of (j
delegates that NFCUS might misintd
pret the resolution as being hostile, when
as in reality we were acting upon
ideals of international good faith, o,
delegation and all others wrestled with tl
problem in our consciences until the fii,
vote was taken. It was a very difficu
decision.
And where are your two rival camps i
a vote of 24 to 2 on the final resolutii
which recommended re-opening the qu^j
tion on the local campus level ? Many deli
gates felt that without such a mandal
from their students, they could not deeij
the issue, though they felt the moral sij
nificance of the original motion was h
yond reproach.
It is very disappointing that The Vai
sity has dealt with this far reaching aD
important discussion at the conference!
such a summary and misleading fashia
Although journalistic slander can nevi^
be undone, it is sincerely hoped that thi
letter will help repair the setbacrio|
NFCUS-ISS relations which your artii!i|
abetted on Canada's largest campus.

OUR READERS WRITE
Rusisian Pro|»agaiidisiti§
Editor, The Varsity:
The grave concern which some
quarters seem to feel about the
question of inviting Soviet stu-
dents to Canada surprises me.
Among those who would like to
see this happen, one writer in
Varsity even expects to see "a
free and informal visit of com-
pletely representative USSR stu-
dents". And may I suggest a
question, which power takes care
of the very selection of this "rep-
resentation"? Or why haven't
ordinary Soviet citizens -paid any
such free and informal visits to
any democratic countries in the
West before?
If those optimistic writers have
fortunately escaped all personal
experience of the regime in So-
viet Russia, I can advise them
that most unlikely has there ever
been a case in the whole history
of USSR where any citizen was
permitted to travel freely outside
Soviet teritory and form any per-
sonal opinions about the other
countries. This would have a
very serious counter -effect on the
internal propaganda with which
the Soviets are fed daily and
which, according to our stan-
dards of logic, is full of ridicu-
lous nonsense and deliberate dis-
tortion of facts. May I in this
connection also remind you of
the Russian wives of British citi-
zens in Moscow who were refused
permission to leave Soviet Russia
together with their legally mar-
ried husbands?
However, if any Soviet citizen
has been sent abroad on a mis-
sion, he is most carefully chosen
from the reliable and fanatical
core of party members and is
nevertheless even abroad closely
watched for his performance and
his contacts. Further, only a per-
son totally and hopelessly ignor-
ant of real conditions in Soviet
Union would for a moment sup-
pose that such a Soviet citizen
after his returning home would
endanger the life of himself and
his family and friends by ut'.':
ing a single favourable
about conditions in the "cl^'
dent, blood-sucking capitali;
countries"?
If you really are so eager
build up a goodwill, you slio:
first contemplate over what ^
Viet Russia hitherto has done
all the goodwill that existed
the Western World after
Second World War? While i
Soviet regime made good use
this naive "goodwill" abroad !
her own purposes, she continii-
to preach hostility, hate and
tempt against the West at ho^
There are sufficient eye-i^;
nesses to support this staten!'-
1, for my own part, cannot '■'
any justification for any "Z^'
will against a system of tyra'-.
which has forced millions of ■
fellow men into bottomless mi^
and slave labour, and Is
likely planning to prepare
similar future for still more.

Editor, The Varsity:
Until this weekend I had never
considered the men at Varsity
particularly chivalrous. However,
after a weekend spent in King-
ston, my eyes have been opened.
It's not that I begrudge the 25c
(much) but the idea that Queen's
"men" had to stoop so low as to
take girls' bloops really burned
me up. Those who managed to
evade the onslaught after the

Israel is not a prime cause, but she is at least an acceler-

Before an audience of 20O souls,
the five finalists in Victoria's Bob
Contest paraded in their outfits in
Alumni Hall yesterday. After much
consideration the judges, Barbara
Taylor Pat Ewlng, T. K. Lawson
and Jim Broughton selected Rober-t
Boy Schatz, III Vic.
With this contest, the tradition of
an all-male Bob was broken.
Cleverly outfitted In the most mas-
culine-of-janitors outfits was ah un-
identified girl, who under the name
of Bob Sled, was succes.«ful In whi-
ning the contest. Until the time
when all present were asked to re-
move their hats for the Victoria
school song, no one had an inkling
a girl was in the contest.
Taken aback at this discovery,
Jim Broughton, Publicity Dnector
for the -Bob Revue, stated she had
violated the rules since the contest
was open to male students only.
The judging committee hastily re-
convened and at this point selected
"Robert" Roy schatz as the modern
counterp.xrt ot Bob Blare, who has
become the Vic tradition.
Phelps Bell, musical director for
the Bob Revue, assisted vocally by
Monty Koughan. gave a few musical
previews from the Revue, coming to
Hart House Theatre Nov. 5, 6 and 7.
Tickets ($1^5 each) for the show
went on sale to the public for the
first time yesterday and are re-
ported to be moving -very rapidly.
They will be sold every diy until
the Revue at Victoria College from
9:30 to 2:30 and at Hart House

ject of the discussion was "The
Creation of the State of Israel Is a
Cause of Current Unrest in the Mid- ■
die East."' Speakers were Jim Pet«rs.
OCE. taking the Aiab side, and
Hillel Vice-President Vicki Sher, III
UC, taking the side of the Jews.
Peters described the creation of.
Israel us a major reason for Arab
hatred of the West. Alter the First
World War, the Arabs and the wes-
tern powers worked together w^U.
However, ttie creation of Israel Wfis
the lir.st serious step to the Arab
nationahsm and independence.
The Palestinian Arabs were the
only ones who had not achieved
some form of independence, said
Peters. The other parts of the
Turkish Empire, such as Syria,
Iran and Iraq, were independent
nations.
'"IliLs roused a natural resent-
ment in the Arabs," hearts." said
Peier.s, "a resentment which turned
again.st the west, the godfather of
the new state.''
Because of the iniense feeling of
brotherhood among Muslims, said
Peters, this resentment spread
throughout the entire Arab League,
ttius explaining the widespread un-
rest, as shown by the Suez Canal
incident, the Iranian oil question,
and the assassination of Abdullah.
"The creation of the state of Is-
rael could not have caused all this
unrest," said Vicki Sher, "since all
the elements of the unrest were
present long before 1948. when Is-
rael was formed."
Uiuest was also stirred up by tiie
backward state of the Arab people,
who still exist in a feudal landlord
society. Tliis was emphasized by the
existence of the progressive Jewish
state nearby.
"Israel has been made the scape^
goat of all the unrest," declared
M'ss Sher. "Actually, it dates much
further back."
Peters agreed that most of tlie
unrest dates lack to before 1848,
No reader of The Varsity need

nia again. At 1:00 o'clock today
40 prospective journalists will gather
to listen to Ian Montagnes, Varsity
News Editor expound on the in-
tricacies of news writing.
The future Vawity will contain
scintillating accounts of up-to-aate
events on the campus. Animal
stories will be prominent, as will
human interest articles. No curiout
reader will be able to set aside their

the Arabs first realized the Zionist*
were trying to create a new state.
The other causes of unrest were be-
ing corrected by the Arabs them-
selves, he added.
Finally Peters was forced to agrefl
with Miss Sher that ttie creation of
Israel was not a prime cause of the
unrest, but only an accelerating
factor.
The year's program for the UN

The sohition to world peace Is a

the municipal, provincial and na-
tional governments of today, tlie
president of the Toronto World
Federalists said yesterday.
The speaker, Harold Miller, was
addressing the first meeting of the
year of the University Peace Coun-
cil, held in the Wallberg Building
yesterday at 1 p.m.
■■Peace Is a product of goveni-
ment," said Mr. Miller. Wherever
there was government, there was
law and order, whether on the lo-
cal, provincial or dominion level.
"Hie obvious way to get law and
order internationally, thereioie, is
to create an internutionai govern
ment," he concluded.
The World Federalists are an or-
ganization advocating a world fed-
eral government, with the various
states unifying much on the same
principle as the Canadian provinces
united In 1867. RepresenUitlves lo
the government would be electid
by the world citizens. Just as uU
Canadians vote for their federal

They have no definite plans as
to how this will be accomplished,
but merely talk about the theory of
It, An International conference h,is
been proposed to draw up a world
constitution. At the conference, It
has been suggested each coimtry
would send one delegate for every
million persons of Its population.
Mr. Miller explained that such a
world government would be re-
stricted In its powers to only ttwse
affairs which would endanger
world peace. For example, it would
have the rigtit to stop manufacturo
of atomic bombs. It would have
complete control of armament. Just
as the Dominion Government has
control of the armed services. But
it would have no power in domestic
matters.
"We must have some kind of
world government," said Mr. Miller,
"Alliances are no good; they break
Up as soon as one party finds It to
its advantage to leave.''
There was hope that the United
Nations could be modified to form
a world federalist government. AUo^
tfiie North Atlantic Treaty seemed a
passible first step towards world
government, since the larger politi-
cal unit had always grown out ol
smaller ones.
Mr. Miller said the World Feder-
alists already had considerable sup-
port from western politicians, in-
cluding 100 British MP.'s, nearly
all the Canadian senators, and six
Canadian M.P.'s.
•■Even if Russia doesn't Join the
world government, and she is the
big question mark," said Mr. Miller,
"it is still better and more secure
for all the western nations to op-
pose her united, rather than indi-
vidually."
This was the first meeting of the
University Peace Council since it
was taken over last spring by the
Engineers. It was an IntroductM^r
meeting. Council officials say the

Skule Strikes Ro^ks
Analagous to a new theory In the
Ecientific world, a new building
has beeD "found" on the campus.
Buried deep in the heart of Skule
territory is the "Mill."
Since U is now surrounded on
all sides by the Mechanical, Min-
ing. and Klectrical buildings, di-
xect access is limited to a narrow
alleyway just South of the new
Mechanical building. Professor
Wolfe smilingly stated its case:
"We have to expand upwards.
They haven't cut us off there yet."
The building itself was built
about 1903. In 1931. thanks to a
grant from the Department of
Mines, two stories were added to
give it its present form. For those
who haven't guessed yet, by
"Mill" is meamt that type which
ts related to a mine, not to flour.

classrooms, and showers and lock-

ing from the crusher room below.
The next floor brought wafting
down the halls the nostalgic odor
of melting silver. Tliis proved to
be the assay depaiiment where
samples of various crushed ores
are very accurately tested for their
valuable content. Gold, silver and
copper are the chief metals used.
Some original work is carried on,
but most of the rocks (now crush-
ed) are samples donated by var-
ious mining companies in the past.
On the large first floor (two
stories high) is assembled a con-
glomeration of mine and mill ma-
chinery — some full size pieces
but mostly working models to
scale. Their job is mineral dress-
ing — the separation of valuable
minerals from worthless by means
which do not change the physical
or chemical identity of the miner-
als.
There are machines to crush
the rock, others to treat the ore
by such methods as gravitation,
magnetism , etc . Laboratories,

sor Wolfe and Professor Barrett,

In spite of the possible hazards

and the workless sex animal.

J .-is of no importance to us. But
J; second, those with sex. came
mlv to university to catch a man.
P said. Referring to the recent
rtPbate at St. Hilda's (asking that
men he forced to marry at 25).
ppidberg declared that "feminine
Haces liad sunk to a low ebb in-
deed when they had to rely on
the long arm of the law." The co-
ed only offered her date academic
Interest, he concluded.
John Cocking, HI Elect., second
speaker for the motion added that
coeds who are exposed to higher
education were different from oth-
er members of their sex. Wlille
the high school girl Just wanted
a good time, the university coed
wanted her man to be able to
talk on a high intellectual level.
A date with a coed was full of
criticisms, he said, and ended in
front of the residence where
dozen girls and boys are standing
around wondering which of the
others will go in first."
Speaking in opposition, L. Sam-
uels, IV Eng. Bus., asked if wom-
en were necessary and answered
with an emphatic "what else is
there?" "Girls are here to stay,'
he said, "and in Engineering our
motto is 'Beggars can't be choos-
ers'." The coeds of the Univer-
■Sity of Toronto are beautiful
graceful, intelligent, and have no
moral.s, he added. "Just give her
a little squeeze, then get drunk
and have fun," Samuels conclud-
ed.
The only female speaker. Ger-
ry Johnson, Engineering Stores
clerk and former Western coed,
warned the audience that she had
never had a date with a coed. Op-
posing the resolution, she said that
girls did not look forward to ex-
pensive , dates and campus-popu-
lar escorts, but rather favored a
good time" and a "nice boy."
Speaking personally. Miss Johnson
felt that "doctors and engineers
were much more intriguing than a
boy in pass arts."
A speaker from the floor asked
Miss Johnson what she considered
nice boy," to which the blush-
ing answer was "a boy who Is pre-
sentable, intelligent, and lots of
fun." "Lots of fun means orig-
inality In Ideas and new places to
she replied to another ques-
tion from the floor.
An ex-artsman believed the co-
eds in residence had to "give their
all" on one date because house
rules only allowed a few free
nights a month. He suggested that
coeds made good dates.
I've never been to a debate In
all my life." commented Bob Ross,
I Civil,, "but (sigh) I just wanted
to see Gerry." That was an opin-
ion of many Skulemen.

ITS THE DANCE OF THE YEAR
{Reprinted from The McGill Daily)
An attempt at raiding the wom-
en's residence at Queen's would
mean a summons to court, student
f;iders warned overspirited young
iiien at Queen's.
And at Queen's University dis-
ciplinary action could mean just
I liat. for law enforcement is a
student problem on that campus.
In practice, the offender is ap-
prehended by a constable or chief
of police. He is summoned to
court at the order of the sheriff.
The crier declares the court open,
with the Chief Justice in attend-
ance. If the charge is serious
there may be a trial by jury.
But everyone concerned is a
student.
Essentially a court of justice.
Queen's Alma Mater Society Court
—by constitution the supreme tri-
bunal of the student body — de-
cides on question of student dis-
cipline involving individuals and
organizations under the jurisdic-
tion of the Alma Mater, Queen's
Student Council.
The Court, officially responsible
for the punishment of all viola-
tions of regulations, resolutions,
orders and governing laws of the
Society, is entirely composed of
appointed students. Its decisions
connot be overruled by the execu-
tive of the AMS.
A Chief Justice, appointed by
the AMS at the recommendation
of the retiring justice, is respon-
sible for the proper conduct of the
court. He is in his final year and
serves a one-year term. Two
Junior Justices assist him.
Order on the campus is main-
tained by a vigilante committee.
A prosecuting' attorney heads the
committee, prepares evidence, and
prosecule.s all cases brought be-
fore the court.
A sheriff is responsible for the
reporting of "improper conduct."
A chief of police and as many as
three constables attend major
campus events.
Constables receive a small re-
muneration for their attendance
(unaccompanied) at major social
ev(!nts. Dressed in plainclothes,
they wear an armband for identi-
fication. They remain through-
out the evening. responsible
through the court for their own
conduct and the conduct of others.
It is their stated duty to evict dis-
ordeiiy patrons, whether AMS
members or not, and to file charg-
es against students, who. in their
opinion, behave in an unbecoming
mEinner.
If a jury is warranted, a wom-
an's student organization repre-
sentative is required on the jury
in the case of a coed defendant.
A unanimous decision by the jury
is invariably required.
If no major issue is involved, a
rulins; of the judges is final.
"We are proud of our student
court." a Queen's student has re-
marked. "It really works.'*

Nobody yet has solved the difficulty of making opera Into suc-
cessful cinema. iThere are rumors that Gian-Carlo Menottt has made
his THE MEDIUM into a good fihn in .Italy.) That grandiloquent effort,
TAT .pa OF HOFFMAN, is good proof of the usual failure.
Mea^s, Powell and Pressburger tried to dress up the opera and
do succeed in holding your interest most of the way. But sometimes opeia
intrudes and bogs things down. This is of course apart from the foot
that In HOFFMAN imagination overwhelmed taste.
So it seems that until somebody comes up with a different ap-
proach or compromise, or writes an opera especially for the screen
(somebody like Leonard Bernstein perhapei. we have to take either
opera or film. When the both are combined, It's like having large raw
lumps in your mashed potatoes
IL TROVATORE tat the Studio) is an ambitious try to solv«
the problem. It doesn't get anywhere. But U you like this Verdi opera,
you would enjoy tt.
To start with, director Gallone was faced with a corny raelo-
draJna, of violent deaths and passionate love, couched In some stirring
and often heavy-handed music. Gallone has inserted an introduc-
tion with no singing. Tlie acting is sometimes reminiscent of the obvioua
silent flicker technique, but things happen and move.
Then the opera starts in earnest. We get passable singing. The
tenor sounds better tonally than swooner Mario Lanza, but perhaps that
Is not much of a comment. The music is fine too. But every time tha
singing starts, things slow down.
The cinematic bits come in the intioduction. the tournajiient
where Manrico Tiovatore proves himself before the fair and adoring
Leonora, and in a gigantic spectacle of a battle scene. In this last, when
hundreds of mounted knights engage in combat, we see that the
director remembers his D. W. Griffith well.
The English sub-titles are happily scanty and well-placed, bu*
they are augmented by an English narration which is often superfluou*
or corny. - '\

I'he Intercollegiate Track meets, scheduled to be held
yesterday at the stadium, were postponed on account of the
three-day downpour, and will be held today at the same time,
1 o'clock.
Most of the track this morning was under two inches
of water, and when the Toronto teams met at the stadium
the prevailing mood was for everybody to take the first
streetcar home. Even the pigeons picking worms on the
field were floundering a little. Field events in the rain are
dangerous as well as very uncomfortable; a javelin thrower
if he skidded on his long step before the throw could gnarl
himself up pretty badly, while a pole vaulter, I imagine (not
being able to pole vault any higher than one of our office
chairs, myself), wouldn't even get insurance from Lloyd's on
a day like yesterday.
This is the first time since long before anyone around
here can remember that an Intercollegiate meet has been
postponed because of rain. Time was when the meets used
to be freld on Friday, which meant that they couldn't be
postponed because of the football game the next day. That
is why they are now held on a Wednesday.
Putting the meet off a day meant a considerable finan-
cial sacrifice to McGill and Western, who have to keep their
teams in hotels for another night. Ivor Wynn, McMaster
Athletic Director, was here this morning while his team
awaited word in Hamilton as to whether there would be a
meet or not, and OAC's squad was poised in their bus at
11:30 this morning when wired not to come.
AH in all, the postponement should do the Toronto
Senior team quite a favour, since Murray Gaziuk, depended
on in the 880, has a charlie horse which he is treating and
hopes will be okay tomorrow, and miler Chuck Wortmau has

The Jim Thorpe story now showing at the University
should have inspirational qualities for any of our trackmen
who might happen to see it. Thorpe's first athletic feat at
Carlisle (in the movie) was to run the 220 in 23 flat with
his street clothes on — and then keep on running a few
more miles. Nobody at Varsity has done 23 flat for a long
time even in a track suit (or without one either, no doubt.
A moot point, whether times made by men not wearing a
track suit are official or not. Will refer it to the Hart
House sub-committee in charge of determining proper stand-
ards of dress) .
The movie devotes several good sequences to Thorpe s
almost superhuman track aijd field accomplishments, which
are much less publicized than his football exploits. The
biographical side of it is a refreshing departure from the
routine Hollywood theme of three-cheers-for-the-hero, which
has marred several snorts movies of recent years.
equaliser. An even more alert Blue
team was on the field. Newt Reid
made a try on goal on a pass from
Manuel Atucha. It rebounded from
the goal post and back to Manuel's
feet, who made no mistake.
Thus encouraged the Blues seem-
ed to decide that it ought to be all
or nothing at all. Settling down to
constructive passing, confident be-
cause of having the better run of
play, and encouraged by the thought
of a few players who enjoyed play-
ing under the conditions that exist-
ed, the Blues played a type of
soccer rarely seen in the College
League.
The Mustangs, every one of them
were now playing as if they were
full-backs. The goal-keeper was
hackeneyed, as only weak shootin;
iprevented the Blues from douiil-
ing the margin of victory. Manuel
Atucha with two goals to his credit,
played his best game in , many
moons. Newt Reid was as sure-foot-
ed as he has ever been. Gil Toppih,
gen Jessop. Eobby Ross each with
one goal, were standouts and de-
serving of more than mere passing
mention.
IP the Blues had a strong for-
ward line, the defence was a tower.
The fine clearing of Tom Broad-
hurst and Wally Eze, were fortresses
of power, and prevented the net-
minder from showing his worth.
Western. 'iJlth the material at
their command, played well. Their
forward line shows promise and in
Martinez, Hay. Church and Camp-
bell they have promising players.
Their defence was extremely tame.
A 2-1 lead together with playing
conditions that were favourable to
them sent the Blues hunting.
Manuel and Gil Toppin were ma-
chine-like with their passes. One
of these passes soon paid off beau-
tifully. Gil made a pass to Manuel,
was cleared after some bungling in
front of the Mustangs' net. But Gil
was determined and immediately
upon receiving the nicest pass we
have seen for a Jong time from Ken
Jessop. made a shot which paid off
handsomely. The score was now 3-1,
and after a few offside penalties
against the now anxious Blues the
half time whistle went.
Early in the second half Newt
Reed again opened the tally card.
On a strong pass from Bobby Ross,
Newt made a fool of the Mustangs'
net-minder. Soon after. Ken Jes-
sop had the keeper lying in one
corner as the ball trickled post
him in the other. Manuel Atucha
had more ambition. London and
one goal did not seem to be all he
wanted and after a strong and valu-
able combination which Ken Jes-
sop found that he had none but the
goal-tender to beat^ faked and trick-
ed him to ^e wrong side of the
net. Bobby Ross had up to this
time stayed on the forward line
v/ithout personal reward and seemed
not content to leave it at that. He
used his head to push between the
bars a pass that came his way.
The game at this podnt became
somewhat rough as the field now
more wet and shppery, gave the
impression that players were Intent
upon playing each other rather

Blues pulled up their socks per-

An improved Victoria football squad which showed
I few flashes of power edged Senior Meds yesterday aft-
noon by an 11-5 count. Although the game was played
a greasy gridiron, with a heavy ball, fumbles didn't play
important a part. The Meds team just wasn't as stromr
the Scarlet and Gold, especially in reserves where they
completely outclassed. •
Both teams showed little in the way of a pass attac
The Victoria team stuck almost completely to the grou!
The Doctors threw more passes, however they weren't ve
successful with them.
Victoria's freshman quarterback,
John Fowler shared the pivot spot
with veteran Lome Lodge and cap-
ably directed his team to both theh:
touchdowns. If the ex-North To-
ronto boy can throw a forward pass,
and it is said he can, the Vicsters
have found the missing link in their
offensive.
Victoria took an early lead in the
first quarter when Georg Hevenor
got off a low kick that landed ip
the middle of 3 Medsmen and
bounded another thirty yards be-
hind the goal line. Wheeler fell
on it and was rouged.
The first Vic touchdown was set
Up when a Meds pass rebounded
into Goodfellow's hands, Goodfel-
low then carried the ball twice for
a first down. Goodfellow took the
ball again for another two yards
and Fowler's pro pass was good for
six. Atkin carried it down to the
four yard line for a first down.
Atkin then took a handoff from
Fowler and went over right guard
for the major. Wooton missed the
convert.
In the third quarter Victoria
made their first real display of
brilliance. Stioec's 'umble was re-
covered-on the K itre stripe. Woo-
ton. Goodfellow and Gowdie then
carried the ball on five successive
plays for thirty yards. It looked like
the Vic march was stopped when
the next two plays advanced the
ball only one yard. However George
Hevenor faked a kick on the third
down and tore off fifteen yards
around the left end. Goodfellow
went for six more. Affter his pro
pass was knocked down. Fowler
made a long pitchout to Goodfellow
who went over the goal line stand-
ing up. Wooton's convert failed.
The doctors finally hit the scor-
ing sheet in the late stoges of the
game. Victoria's Alexander took a
Fowler pass and fumbled 'when he
was tackled by several Meds play-
ers. Meds recovered and then on
the next play proceeded to fTOl the
Vicsters with a real oldie, tti sneaker

SCIENCE NOTES
Clotidsi And Men
I marvel at the ways of God,
For time and time again
I see Him paint such lovely clouds
Above sucb awkward men.
Some of these awkward men have not only
marvelled atMhe beauty of clouds, but have tried
to understand them. The many cloud forms have
been labelled with I>atin tags which classify them
roughly into four main groups.
Cirrus clouds are four to five miles high and
contain only a small amount of water vapor in
the form of ice crystals. Their appearance has
been compared to feathers, locks of hair, and
mares' tails.
Lower than these are the bUlowy white
cumnlas clouds. Their Tnick dotne-shaped upper
surface and flat horizontal base gives them a
shape simUar to an anvil. The thunderhead cloud
■which looms on the horizon whenever the science
editor forg. '. his rpin coat, is a beautiful but nasty
member of this family.
Stratus clouds cover, the ^ with a log-like
blanket. They are usually within 3.000 feet of the
earth's surface.
Enter the villain. The Nimbus cloud is low,
ragged, and dark. From it faU the gentle rains
from heaven which gladden the crops but cause
profanity in human circles.
The rain.it ralneth on the just
And also on the unjust fella;
But chiefly on the just; because
The unjust steals the just's umbrella.
A cloud contains infinite numbers of solid
By JIM ANDERSON
particles such as dust, smote, and poUen, which
form a nucleus for liquid particles. These remain
suspended due to the lift of air currents from the
earth which originally formed the cloud.
The air ar6und us conlalhs varying amounts
of water which is present as an invisible vapor.
However, as the temperature of the air decreases,
less water can t^e held in this form and so it is
condensed and becomes visible as steam. This oc-
curs in nature when a body of surface air rises
by convection, reaching a higher and cooler at-
mosphere. There the original water vapor con-
tent is too great for the new air temperature and
the excess forms a cloud.
In the evening when convection currents
diminish due to decreased heat energy from- the
earth, clouds descend. As they become warmed,
the water particles evaporate and again become
invisibly "dissolved" in the air. If convection has
been sufficiently strong to cause coalescence of
large visible droplets, some may be precipitated
as rain.
Recent experiments in rain making have shown
that every rain drop originates as an ice crystal.
Artificial rainstorms have been made by dropping
smaU i^Uets of solid carbon dioxide through
supercooled clouds 8i)d thus initiating precipita-
tion. Richard Armour thinks that it Is easier than
that:
The Indians chant and dance ^out
To break a crop -destroying drought,
But I've a simpler means by car;
I only have to wash my car.

taxicabs — these are the first pic-
tures; the more more serious ones
don't come till later.
Why does French express the in-
expressible? Why do we fall back
on piquant words and phrases so
hard to translate, like chic, cang-
froid, savoir-faire, or roue?
What is the appeal of a perfume
named "Toujours Moe" or "In-
discrete"? and why does a rab-
bit coat look less scruffy when
called "Lapin"?
Iwfaybe it is because living, to
the French, is an art. and not just
a function. Maybe it is because
they know the secret, better than
any other people, of how to enjoy
themselves.
In any case, this is the idea
which, under the surface, animates
the UC. French Club. Its meet-
ings are attended by people who
know that they have been bitten
by the French bug. They come,
not with the sole purpose of sys-
tematically improving their
French by elevating conversation
but primarily to have a good
time in a way as close
to the French way as pos-
sible The entertainment (never
too frighteningly highbrow) vanes
_a short play, a novelty of some
sort, or often a skit wntten by the
students. Whatever it is. they try
to make It good. Then everybody
sings— songs like * * Vous oubliez
votre clieval". or "Bourn", which
can't be beaten by any other songs
in any language. After that,
there is usually dancing, and al-
ways food. Since it would be a
betrayal of French principles to
be content with stale cookies, the
Victuallers-in-chlef of the club al-
ways try to get something a bit
special, and good.
For the first meeting' tonight,
fOct 25) there will be two skits.
"Les Memoires Criminels de Na-

n^hy But Hntv ?
lorloon by Hugh Niblock,
The Prize
Liwt weekend the International Relations Club
held its first seminar at Caledon Hills Farm. The
subject for discussion was ' the effects of the US-
USSR clash on the other countries of the world".
The weekend was a success. We came to no
world-shattering conciiLsions. We didn't even plan
another club to set out to change tlie world. But
we learned somethmg. And moie important, we
threw out some ideas we had been collecting and
let the members toss them around. Some ideas
were rejected, some were added, all were modi-
fied and organized into a cohesive form. And this
was the purpose of the weekend.
The niain session of the weekend came Sunday
moniing, when we talked about what we. as
Canadians, could do to relieve the tension that had
resulted frcoi the cla.sh of ideologies. One of the
most important wa,vs, we felt, was to sponsor more
of these seminars, p.^rticularly extended ones like
the International Student Seminar held dmin"
August, where students of all political opinions and
cultural backgrounds could get together and air
their peeves. There is a tremendous difference
between lashing out at a country, and remember-
ing a citizen of it with whom you talked and sang
and walked. It makes you a little less sure of
generahzations. Maybe before you believe too much
propaganda. ,vou can write a letter and try to
find out the other, side of the story. And you re-
member that students of all backgrounds can get
along, and become friends, really close friends.
But you've got to have support for projects
such as these. Last summer, the International
Student Seminar almost failed, due entirely to
financial reasons. Not untu last sprin" was' the
national office of ISS confident enough in its
ability to hold the seminar to begin choosing dele-
gates.
AS a result, little pubhoity could be given to
inform students, and many already had summer

According to the Bnti.sh bookmakers, we are writing largely, to finances, it held less appeal to potential
this editorial on the eve of a Conservative election in Great XrSanadfans ^ol^iTf toeifoT sou'tS
Britain. And bookmakers, being the cool dispassionate souls broader nersnecuv.
they are, are not too apt to be wrong. But, with anything
that concerns people, you never can be entirely sure.
The campaign, for the most part has been quiet — at
least by North American standards. It has seemed almost
as if everyone, from the contestants to the electors has been
waiting with considerable interest for the results.
By and large, the campaign has been concerned with
personalities rather than with issues. At least this is true •
of domestic issues. A Conservative victory will not mean OUR READERS WRITE
a return to free enterprise to the prewar days and the aban-
donment of the welfare state.
The whole trend towards socialism is far too strong
for the Conservatives to stop. They can only be conservative
within the socialist framework of present day Britain. So -■ -- - —
far they have been playing their role of mild socialism with fit^'w Xu^kif'ioW' "el"

Finally the choices were made, and even
then there was some doubt whether sufficient
money would be raised. But a miserable month of
begging, cajoling, headaches and Jaunts around
the countn' ended in scraping together enough
money to make final arrangements.
So the seminar began, and before long we
were told that unless $2,000 was found somewhere
the originally-scheduled five weeks - would be
slashed to four. Some of the sources of money
that had been expected. like the Duplessi.,
ermnent, had failed to come through And C"''

So we were mad. Not mad that we coui ■
extend our "holiday" (most of which was I '
in haM work), but because we knew the inir
ance of the seminar. We had aired some of S'
protlems involved In the touchy question of R, f*

puerile fersonality joust. Shame
Mr. Eingelbert, was the issue not
greater than that?
Before continuing 1 wish to
make it clear that this will be
my last letter to The Varsity
dealing with a question that is
rapidly degenerating into a mere
verbal conflict.
Broadly speaking, Mr. Engelbert
is not to be censured for lus latest
literary effort. On the contrary he
should be complimented on cer-
tain aspects of his letter and en-
couraged. It is evident, not from
the content, but from the style in
which it was written that, basic-
ally, we stand together on the
question which he originally so
enigmatically posed. I am always
gratified to see a mild-mannered
person with an admittedly shelt-
ered "upbringing" so vociferous-
ly assert hlmseU In defence of an
opinion.
I regret that 1 cannot follow
Mr. Engelbert's sggestion to re-
read his first letter as I have
not had the foresight to preserve
a copy. However, he does, in his
second letter, corroborate the ten-
or of the first. And thi:j I find
very disappointing. I think the
wiiole thing can be reduced to
this. He condemns in principle
and by his own admision the
pubUc expression of a moral con-
viction. Public opinion, in most
case;, would hardly find this a
Justlable attitude.
The Keenleyslde Incident Is
only a much publicized example ol
an event that is duplicated again
and again in everyday lite; on
the street corner, in the theatre,
in schools and in churches. And
that is the subordination of im-
mediate personal interests to a
collective ideal, or have you
noticed, Mr. Engelbert,
Certainly. life does offer so
many complexities that confusion
IS bound to occur. But let's take
the cue from those who have pa.'is-
cd this way before and not hap-
hazardly censure their views and
actions.
Had a simUar incident occurred
m your home or in mine «e
might corectly have called it "bad-
manners". But in such a formal
setting, where the action will have
a profound and far-reaching ef-
fect, not only in diplomatic circles,
but. among the Joe citizens ol
many countries, we cannot dis-
■niss It as merely a serious breacli
of etiquette. I should think that
Mr. Engelbert would feel a sense
of humility and shame tor hl»
derogatory and uncalled for
criticism of the episode.
Regarding his final remark
about terming Peace a •'dlrl7
word". I can only venture to
suggest that his thought were
again confused and not on the
matter at iiand.

Games, Teas, Dances, Stag
---All Part of Homecoming
This Is the big weekend of the
year when both grads and undei-
grads swarm over the campus, A
good rugby team should attract
thousands of alumni, but many will
be coming bacic to see how their
campus has changed over the years,
and it Ls up to the undergraas* at
Varsity to be good hosts to those who
have gone before 'them.
For the graduates the Home-
coming Weekend will start on Fri-
day night with a Homecoming din-
ner in the Great Hall of Hart House
at which Chancellor Vincent Mas-
sey will speak on "Reflections of a
Graduate". Then the grads and
undergrads will meet at a giant
Grandstand Show in Varsity
Stadium.
The Homecoming Weekend will
continue on Sturday with a large
float parade containing for the first
time, alumni floats the Toronto-
Queen's rugby game, a tea dance
after the game, a six-orchestra
dance in Hart House, and tours of
the campus. On Sunday there will be
a Homecoming Church Service in
Trinity College Chapel, followed by
teas at the different colleges and
faculties. The whole university will
be open for vbltors.
The Homecoming Weekend is be^
ing plaim^ by the Blue and White
Society of the Students' Administra-
tive Council and by the Alumjii As-
sociation. The Blue and White So-
ciety is sponsoring the Stadium
Show, the Homecoming Dance, and
the Tea Dance after the game.
This year is also the triennial
Homecoming Weekend for the En-
gineering Grads who are holding a
dance on Friday night at Royal
York and a stag after the rugby
game.
The Blue and White Society hopes
to make a slight profit on the Sta-
dium Show and dance, weather per-
mitting. The Stadium Show is cov-
ered by rain insurance so that any
students buying tickets tomorrow
will have their money refunded if it
rains. So far over a thousand
tickets have been sold for the Sta-
dium Show and only about 50 dance
tickets remain for sale today.
This Is the fourth annual Home-
coming Weekend on the Toronto
campus. Originally desi£,ned as a
means for students to welcome
alumni and to show them the spirit
the undergrads of the university
have, the weekend is now becoming
a permanent part of univ/ersity tra-
dition.
Mginy of the problems and diffi-
culties raised by the Stadium Show
and the big dance are much mora
easily handled now than they were
three . ars ago. For example the
searchlights for the Stadium Show-
need their own generators for power,
and each year there Ls trouble get-
ting a stage. By now the Blue and
White Society knows where every
searchlight, generator and portable
stage In Ontario can be located. Last
night the Society had a dress re-
hearsal of the Stadium Show and
felt confident that anyone attend-
ing would have no trouble either
seeing or hearing the show.
The weather man says that to-
morrow will be sunny and warmer
to make a good start on what should
be the best Homecoming Weekrad
ever.

Once again I join with the undergraduate body and with the Uiii-
versity of Toronto Alumni Association in extending a warm welcome
to the graduates and friends of the University on this occasion. During
this weekend the campus will be in a very real "sense your home, where
memories will be charged with a fresh vividness, and associations will be
renewed.
We want you to feel that this is your University, that you are not
merely interested spectators, but active participants. We need your sup-
port and encouragement, especially in these days when the role of the
University has never been more central and its- problems more insistent.
Your Alma Mater lives and grows in the loyalty and affection of her
sons and daughters. Sidney Smith

In Big Faculties' Float Parade
To give the smaller faculties and
eourses a chance to win the
Alumni Cup for the best float in
the Homecoming float parade, en-
tries this year are limited to 2O0
feet in length and must not cost
more than $20. One of the best
floats entered lost year was from
the comparitively small course of
Art and Archaeology. The float
parade committee of the Blue and
Wlilte Society are trying to get en-
tries that stress quahty. like the
Art and Archaeology float, rather
than quantity, Uke the Skule entry
which took up half the parade last
year and included a peanut com-
pany's float.
The Blue and White band, the
Lady Godiva Memorial band and
the Scarlet and Gold Light Infantry
end Regimental Parade band will
be in the parade. X^st year there
were musical organizations Prom
DC (the Dragon Stompers), Dentis-
try (the Dental Chompers). the In-
stitutional Management trio and the
faculty of Music Hillbillies.
The float parade will be the only
time that students will be able to
see all the cheerleaders from the
different faculties as well as the
Blue and White cartwheelers. Last
year the Engineers managed to find
as many cheerleaders as the more
fortunate faculties and colleges. The

In Homecoming Do^is
The Alumni Association is doing
more work for the Homecoming
Weekend than ever in its history.
For the fir.sl time. Alumni floats will
appear in the float parade.
Open houses and teas will be
prevalent during this weekend at
many of the colleges and faculties.
The Annual Alumni Meeting, at
which annual reports will be dis-
cussed and executive officers elected,
will &ho take place .
Rev. Dr. D. R. S. Owen will preach
at the Homecoming fchurch Service
at Trinity College on Sunday. The
Alumni Association is planning to
have this service at a different
theological college each year. Last
year it was held at Convocation Hall,
but not enough people turned out
to fiU it.
There will also be various re-
unions, such as the Engineers Trien-
nial which takes place every thiee
years and is prepared for a year
in advance. About 1,700 graduate
engineers are expected to come,
bringing their wives. One item on
their program is a visit to the
Downsview Ahdrome.
Doctors from all over Ontario will
be coming to the two-day refresher
course this Thursday and Friday.
The course is given by the medical
staff and also includes disciissions.
Special additional class reunions
will be held -for those who graduate
in the years ending in one and five.

University of Toronto celebrated Homecoming Weekend again in
Weekend Program
FRIDAY
7:15 p.m.
a big homecoming back in the days
before most of our parents were
parents. The event was the Cen-
tenary Celebration in 1927, when the
Oniversity of Toronto observed its
100th birthday.
It featured an impressive parade
honoured by the presence of such
distinguished visitors as the City
Mayor. Stretching along city streets
1948. This more recent history of
homecoming goes back to April of
that year, when the Students" Ad-
ministrative Council approved the
idea in principle, but made no con-
crete plans. In the autumn of that
year, it accepted the proposal
brought forth by the Blue and White
chairman Joe Potts, calling for an
AU-Varsity reunion without regis
for more than 2 miles, 40 gay and tratlon. The Board of Directors of
brightly painted floats entered by
various colleges and faculties stop-
ped the wheels of commerce in
Toronto's business section for one
and a half hours.
After a 21-year break. University
of Toronto took up the idea o£ the
the Alumni Association, which
really the backbone ot the whole
scheme, gave the proposal its full
support, and with the approval of
President Smith, Operation Home-
coming forged ahead.
The Alumni's aim in the promo-
tion of such a project is to bring
back the grads in a reunion, to re
new old friends, to refresh old
memories of their days at college,
and to foster in the grads an active
Interest in their Alnia Mater. To
welcome the grads, a dinner is plan-
ned for Friday night with Chan-
ellor Massey as tlie guest speaker
and also an Alumni Open Meeting
on Saturday morning and different
class reunions in the various colleges.
Heading the organization is the
Homecoming Committee whose
members represent eight different
faculties and colleges. Sponsoring
the Homecoming and Open House
is the Blue and White Society, an
undergraduate organization formed
to promote an All-University Spirit.
Each of its eleven members comes
from a different colleges or faculty,
typifying the all- university theme
which abolishes faculty and college
boundaries,
Last year with Western, this year
with Queen's, the weekend of the
University Homecoming and Open
House is three days packed with
exciting activities for all gr§ids,
undergrads, and parents. Starting
with the Stadium Show Friday
night, the Homecoming continues
with a gigantic, float parade Satur-
day morning, in which all the
faculties that enter vie for the covet-
ed Alumni Cup donated by the
Alumni.
The rugby game on Saturday
aft-ernoon is followed by the Home-
coming Dance and Open House in
Hart House Saturday nlghc.
la 1948, the Homecoming was
promoted with the hope that it
would grow to be one of the many
traditions in the colourful Ufe of
the University.f,With each successive
year, the activities of tliis project
have become more popular and
numerous until they now operate on
the present gigantic scale. With
such evident enthusiasm for Home-
coming, it is quite certain that its
future as a tradition is secure.

balconj viewpoint ]
By FRANK MOBITSUGU
It Is with some temerity that I have approached this revi
STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE (at the Victoria). There waJ
temerity^ when 1 went to see the Elia Kazan movie version oj f\^-m
nessee Williams' play. The buildup had been tremendous.
wholly favorable. STREETCAR, to hear them tell it. brought h 'I
right up on top again. This was THE picture. We'll show the Oii^""l
the Italians. '^itr,|
But for me It wasn't THE picture. Don't misunderstand, STri-
is composed of some exceptional ingredients. Vivien Leigh and ^
Brando breathe life into their performances, with Leigh perhan"
a slight edge. And Kazan has managed, with only a few conviiw-
tirigs^ to surround us with with the Kowalski flat. We share in th '
business that goes on, and a lot of it seems to splash onto us.
The music is superbly used, etching in mood details at n,
moments, and always going away when not wanted. The tone is sp,^
opening with a cheap jazz melody mournfully suggesting the
mosphere.
Kim Hunter and Karl Maiden head the supporting cast, a
too give full measure. Everything seems to be in place to make st-;
CAR a tremendous experience. But I was not gripped in the pjt
stomach as I had expected to be. '
It is timely to say about here that I went to see STREETCAR
have not seen it on the stage. I have not read the play. All I kneu^
Blanche DiiBpis and the Kowalskis was what I had read in tiie c
and the magazines. ^
This makes me different from most of the critics huzza-ino
the pictxu-e. They seem to know the play well. They probably share
common opinion that transference to the screen was impossible ■■
STREETCAR was too fragile for the crudities of the screen sensib"
But the play is obviously relatively unimpaired. Only the ambiguous
ing, and the rearing away from mention of the homosexuality of
dead husband are concessions to the morality lobbies.

The Blue and White Society was
founded in 1M8 by Joe Potts. The
Sporting Activities Committee of
the Students' Administrative Coun-
cil, responsible lor student partici-
pation at football and hock^, etc..
was worried. In 1947 everyone was
becoming anti-social and not sup-
porttog their teams.
Joe Potts, U.C. repreaentatlTe to
the SAC that year decided to try to
solve the problem by founding a
society to include all students in-
terested Id the AU-Varalty spirit in
other things besides athletics. So in;
1948, Joe with coonskin coat became
chairman, and the Blue and White
Society became a formal part of the
SAC.
Pep rallies, dances and inter-
collegiate weekends followed. Joe
climaxed the year when, the day
before the crucial game of the
championship race he solemnly
sacrificed the coonskin coat of his
fathers in a gigantic sacrificial
pyre on the front campus. Poor Joe's
heroism did not go xmrewarded.
Varsity won the' game and the
championship,

However, an Art Gallery Night was

In 1950. under the auspices of

The Varsity Christmas Tree was

I took another looic at the 103
page immphlet that the rnachine
in the book store gave me for five
cents. There was no mistaking its
title. "Homecoming Program 1963"
blazed forth In red, exuberant let-
ters.
A glaoee at tbe table of contents
assured me of my untrained In-
abUity to read this U\ub. and I
threw It onto a paaaing football
ooaoh. I decided aot ki exert my-
self, merely to follow the stream
oi blank old 6>«d« irtwvvw it
choae to go.
First off, I ran Into a float-
parade. A 207-foot naked woman
was dragged paat by teams of w^-
yoked freshmen, and from a door
In the statuette's heel red-eyed
sciencemen kept yelling for "Helen".
The way helicopter traffic In Bloor
Channel got tded up by this float-
parade wa« a pleasure to see.
I WW M tccTified by the mam-
moth cash-register crawling by on
the bacfc of an academic spider that
I tottmd awtty.
After a rousing dinner oC food
piUs and gin concentrates, amply
chased with pitcherfuls ot loyalty
tea, I directed my eyes up at the
Hart HouM dais. Although my ease
was somewhat obstructed by th»
regulation blinkers, i did make out
three elderly figures dimly trying a
'■pogo-stiok basketball" skit they
had staged In the 1910 Bob Review.
The show was broken up rather
abruptly when ttie Revolver Club
insisted on having its bi-weekly
practice, and on using tear-staine4
Jack Gray (*&!> as target.
As I wandered about the campus,
I heard great roars of cheering from
the direction of the old Ubrary.
I fought my way over. The home*
oomJng contest between the book*
worms of MaoPee College and Var-
sity was oo. Books and Ilbrariaas
were falling on every side. Ten
English Orads brandishing Indelible
petKils tried to referee, but tha
Ma^"ee worms got the better (rf
them all. As trophies, the victon
carried away two oompleie fning-
cablnets of catalogue cards.
By now the only activity worth
attempting was the disj^y of fran-
tically creative dancing In what ha<|
once been Convocation Hall. To th«
anapesttc strains of a professorial
chorus from Aeschylus, a number
of recent graduates performed th«
Dance of the Seven Parchments.
During intermission, a squad at
chancellors and deans la full
acarugby strip scurried around dlt«
trlbutlng ball-point pens.
Jufli as I stepped towandii my Jet-
powered, rainproof communlat scoo-
ter. I beard that all future home-
comers were to be contacted ttf
feelavlsion. I clutched convulsively
at my plck-ax and stepped ahroad.

WE FOLLO
On these two pages The Varsity presents some of the stars who win
not be playing in tomorrow's game between the Blues and -the Golden
Gaels, bnt who are at the same time an essential part of the game.
The top left and right pictures are. in technical tcrminologr, des-
cribed as "Flying Angels." Bev Secord is the angel on the left and Gwen
Yeates is. the angel on the right. Their supporters are male cheerleaders.
The Varsity staff photographer asked Nancy Elliott, another cheer*
leader, if she would please whisper "cheese". The left hand side, the sec-
ond picture from the top shows just bow much emphasis can be put into
A little word.
The third picture frtmi the top of the page is of that "angel", BcT
Secord. iWiss Secord is in second POT and this is also her second year
us a senior cheerleader. Her success is undoubtedly due to long houTR
•f hard practise.
At the last game in Toronto, between Western and the Blues, the
weather office noticed a sadden rise in the. temperature in central To-
ronto. This was at least partly due to Helen Macbie and the Hawaiian
War Chant. The photographer forgot to get the drummer's name in the
prevailing coDfasion,

The University College Redmen
chalked up their first victory of
the season yesterday afternoon
a£ they downed the Engineers 10-
0. The UC team went over for
two unconverted touchdbwns in
the first three minutes of the game
and held off a fighting Skule team
(or the rest of the game.
Except for the first few minutes,
the Engineers had quite an edge
in play, but this was nullified by
some sloppy ball handling in j-he
Skule backfield. The SPS team
hobbled the ball no less than eight
times, and the alert UC linemen
picked up five of these.
The Engineers kicked off to open
the game and before they could
turn arouDd. the Redmen were
over for their first major. Ed
Richardson took the kick on his
own five and kept going until he
reached the Skule 38, on the best
run of the day. Ralph Brown took
a plunge and went right through to
the 13, from where Richardson
went around the left end for the
TD. This was the' last time the
UC team moved the sticks during
the game. Byron Peebles, the
UC quarter, tried a pass for the
convert on a fake place kick for-
mation, but unable to pick out a
receiver, he elected to run the baU.
and was brought down on the two.
Skule chose to receive, and gain-
ed possession on their own 18. Bob
EUa went through for four, but it
was caUed back and the Engineers
were given a 10 yard penalty for
holdlQs. They were held on the
next play, and on the third down
a bad snap over the kicker's head
went bad; over the goalline.
George Lewis recovered for the
Skulemen but instead of giving up
the two points, he came out over
the line, giving UC possession on
the one. Larry Skitch went over
centre for the major on the first,
and the convert attempt was.block-
ed.
That was the en^ of tbe scor-
ing and for the rest of the game
the Engineei-s tried in vain to
make up the two point deficit. -TTie
Skulemen racked up seven first
downs on the fine running of John
Prendergast and Lewis.
The SPS crew took to the air
when their ground attack was bog-
ged down by a bad case of fum-
bilitis, but they were able to com-
plete one pass in nine attempts,
and the Redmen intercepted two of
Lewis' tosses. The UC team tried
three passes, all incomplete, and
their quarter had little time to get
the tosses away as the Skule line,
led by Bob Beattie was charging
in.
Mac Lister, who coached For-
estry to their Mulock Cup victory
has been added to the UC coach-
ing staff.^ Lister was scheduled to
take over the team at the begin-
ning of the season, but was kept
off his feet because on an injury
suffered in softball this summer.
He will take over some of the du-
ties now handled by Byron Peeb-
les who doubles as quarter on the
UC squad.
Gaels Look For Revenge
At Homecoming Contest
Garside, Johnson Out
By IBWIN GUTTMAN
Despice a 26-2 win over the Golden Gaels last week, the
Varsity Blues are taking nothing for granted when they line
up opposite the Tricolour tomorrow at 2:00 p.m., especially
so since the comments emanating from Frank Tyndale's
camp bode no good for Bob Masterson's crew.
Por alas and alack, those peren-
nial cellar -dwellars of the Rah-R«h
circuit have indicated to the King-
ston preea tiiat the Varsity squad
"were simply adding insult to in
jury in piling up such a big score
against us, and we will be in Uiere
from the start to show Varsity how
a game of football should be play
ed." This Is an indication tbat i
"knock 'em down, drag 'em out" bat-
tle will b« the order of the day at
the "Bloor Bowl".
The Blues, who will b« protwitog
a seven game winning streak, are
hampered somewhat by Uie loss of
several key defensive men, most not-
able of which is the enforced ab-
sence of Bob Garside. Garside, who,
has starred at left secondary for
the Blues, and has been a vital cog
in the Varsity Machine to date, has
n, bruised shoulder, and as aoother
Injury to it could re^t in a per-
manent handicap, Bob was ordered
to the team physician to view pro-
ceedings from the sidelines. His
place at left secondary will be taken
by Tony Adams.
Bruce Johnson, the able defen-
sive end, will also view the contest '
from the sidelines, as be has a
severe limp, sustained in the game
last week. Joe Harris remains a
douhtful starter, also because of an
injury to the shoulder.
However, the rest of the Blues are
intact, and will have halfback Bob-
by Rumtoall back in action. Al
E>ancy at centre, flanked by ^ards
Hames and Miles, with Captain
Johnny Evans and Collzza at tackle
and Bell and Brown at ends, will
start on the Varsity front walL The
SPORTS PROFILE
Blue backfield will have starter^
Alex Lawson at quarterback. Bill
Bewley and Bill McFarlane on tha
half line, "Ones Steve" Oneschuk
at the fullback slot, and Al Haig -
at wingback.-
Queen's will be without the ser-
vices of their captain Harry Lamp-
man, but otherwise they will field
the same team that ai>sorbed the
one-sided defeat last Saturday.
Their front line will be composed of

Bab^ Blues, BIT
In Exhibition Tilt
The Intermediate football Blues,
undefeated in league competition
so far, take on Ryerson Tech in an
exhibition game this afternoon at
1:30 in Varsity Stadium. The Baby
Blues didn't pick any pushover to
fill in their schedule ae the Tech-
men have a good outfit. The only
basis of comparison between the
two teams is the fact that they
both lost to the Cobourg Galloping
Ghosts 1^ close scores. Judging
from thia it would seem tbat the
Intermeds wUl have to go some to
come out on top.
Coaches Kennedy and Mustard
have had their charges working out
nightly and they are improving
each time out. It's a tough job to
put together a good intermediate
team since it acts as a sort of farm
club for the Big Blues, with players
eittier going up or coming down.
However, this year's equad has
shaped up well and has an excel-
lent chance for an undefeated sea-
son.
The aUrting linc-i^i will be in
the main the same one which has
racked up wins over OAC and Wes-
tern Colts. The mtermeds win de-
Bobby Dale
Bobby Dale made a couple of
coaches and a lot of sDortswrit-
ers raised their right eyebrows
shghtly while they were watching
him iij pre-season practices with
the Varsity Blues this fall, but it
was not until last Saturday that
Varsity fans reaUzed just what all
tbe eyebrow-raising was about.
The fleetfooted youug halfback
from Lawrence Park Collegiate
here in the city romped through
the Queen's backfield aU last Sat^
urday afternoon and three of the
excursions resulted in touchdowns
for the Blues. "I guess that is the
most louchdottTis I have ever scor-
in a single game." stated Bob-
There must be something to
H^d for ft young mah tb»k waits
until his first year <A college foot-
ball to turn in a performance like
that.
Bobby spent five years at Lawr-
ence Park and played his first
football for the school's junior
squad when he was in third form.
He graduated into senior high
school ranks the next season and
was away witli the city champion-
ship ^n IS-ig. The same team lost
to Humberside in the city semi-
finals the next fall, but Mr. Dale
sat that one out with a broken
ankle.
KnroUed in the first rear of the
new General Course, Bobby, at 19
years of age ia one of the youngest
members of the Blue team. He is
5*9" in hit socks and being unable
to push the scales any higher than
the 165 pound mark. Bobby start-
ed out his football career at Uie
left half spot and is stUl holding
down that position.
The No. 83 sweater' that Bobby
wears was occupied by Gerry
Wasiiington last season, and the
similarity in both size and playing
ability between he and Bobby
Dale have amazed many a fan
who saw Gerry perform last sea-
son.
Bobby may not score three
touchdowns against the Gaels to-
morrow, but visiting dignitaries
will sit up and take notice when
he demonstrates bow a football
also oa« ol the amaUesC staaaiui i should bd carried.
pend chiefly on their terrific pass-
ing game wliich accounted for X7
out of 18 passes completed against
Western and for two of their three
touchdowns. Doug Ge^e and Ger-
ry Fitzhenry will be the men dl-
reciting the attack from the quar-
terback slot, and if they can keep
up that average of successful
passes, they'll give their opponenta
a busy afternoon. Speedy Don Paw-
cett who carried over for one major '
in the Colts game, is expected to
toe one of the spearheads in the
ground attack.
The line too appears in fair shape
and today's game will more than
give them a workout for next
week's tussle with Western. There's
one little thing that would make it
a good season for the little Blues
and that is some people to watch
them play. It's not much of a thrill
to make a stirring touchdown run
when the only spectators are tbe
caretakers and someone who stop-
ped hs to see what the noise was,
Tlie Intermediate teams are
largely responsible for the success
of the Seniors, since they develop
and provide experience for the play-
en before they go up to the Blf
Team, so it's only right thatt a sta-
dium which is crammed for a Sen-
ior game should contain at least
1,500 for an Intermeds encoimter.
Game Ume again Is 1:30 at Varsi^
Stadium. ■Kiese boys play a good
tn-and of ball so the time will be
well spent.

McGill won the Intercollegiate track meet for the second straight year yesterday,
defeating Varsity by 74 points to 59. Western had 17 points, McMaster 15. McGill and
Varsity both had six firsts, but McGill picked up a large part of their margin on seconds
and thirds.
Two records fell, one to McMaster's Don MacFarlane who did the 100 in 9.0, one tenth
of a second better than the jointly-held previous record, and one to McGill's Dave Blair,
who bettered his own record by two inches with a high jump of 6' 2'|4".

have brought the expense involved

automatic temperature controls, and

a fine Kodak Precision enlarger
for 35 mm. and 2% by 3% inch

The aatumn colours of red and
gold, and the colours in the snow,
awaken the enthusiasm not pniy of
artists with brush and easel, but
also of these artists with camera

the club has an annual fall hike
at Caledon.
There are monthly shows of the
memJjers' work called "Salons," and
near the end of the season there
is a large show. There are prizes
for colour photography and the
K, B. Jackson and A. F. Coventry
awards for black and white. The
winning pictures in this contest are
given a place in the permanent col-
lection of the club.

BSC .^gj important .writer to see
this dilemma and to realize that
a new "shock tactic" technique of
writing must he developed to

Of writing was necessary to make
any imprint on him.
She was able to inHuence s
school of writers, such as Hem-
ingway. Faulkner, and Steinbeck,
to present this dilemma in novels,
emphasizing violent action.
Ernest Hemini^ay, Scott said
wrote in defence or individualism
His hero was not the epic hero; he
was a man attempting to realize
himself as_ an individual despite
the all-pervasive conditipning of
the machine and of the media
of mass communication. He was
a violent man in act and thought
because that was necessary for
self-assertion.
Wm Faulkner, continued Scott,
treated the same problem by ex-
amining the effect of these in-
fluences on a mythical region. He
developed the history of the town,
but always his characters had to
face this problem, and then there
were no compromises in the viol-
ent denouement.
John Steinbeck and John Dos
Passes expressed this problem
more from a political angle, but
the revolt against automatism was
there Scott thought, in their at-
tack on moral taboos. T. S.
Eliot's first poetry— 'The Waste
Lands' — managed to evade and
sublimate this problem, and then
Eliot fled in retreat without facing
up to the issues, said Scott.
In Scott's opinion the most tragic
example was Ezra Pound the man
of genius who could not resolve
the dilemma but "allowed it to be-
come a festering sore within him."
Writers of today presented a sim-
ilar 'warped' view of modern hu-
mans but so consistent was their
interpretation said Scott, that the
reader was forced lo realize an
element of truth.
Security t^ailure

EVERY BLOOP

T W E E P E R
Co-operation in the long term
things are more important than
the military aspects of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization, but
have recently been pushed aside
by military matters, said Mr. A.D.P.
Heeney, Undersecretary of States
for Canadian External Affairs
addressing the International Re-
lations Club yesterday afternoon.
He emphasized that a faith in
coflective security and the failure
of the Security councQ to provide
this was the principle reason why
NATO was formed. Its primary
purpose, he said ''is to provide suf-
ficient determent to Russian agres-
sion so that it may never come."
"NATO Is not a bloc"; he said, it
is simply recognizing the mutual
co-operation and community on
cultural and economic matters which
was there already. The admission
of Turkey and Greece, he added
later was a contradicfcon of this but
was a "material addition to the
deterring force". All members of
NATO would prefer the whole
United Nations Tjody, were it cap-
able of providing the necessary
security, he said: "Anyone in his
right mind would prefer the whole
cake to part of it".
George Brigden, TV History, asked
if NATO's hope for the peaceful
co-existence of the eastern and
western worlds meant allowing
existing boundaries to stay. He was
referring to Poland and Czecho-
slovakia now under Russian con-
trol. Mr. Heeney replied that it is
a mistake to talk about liberation
unless we mean military liberation,
which we don't. Such a thought,
he declared would be "madness".

Thfc freshmen emerged sans ties

Previously the freshmen had plan-

The Sophs, warned beforehand,
had massed on the stairs beside the

then proceeded to cut and puU the

The Gentle Art
OUR READERS WRITE
We Are Mot Us
toon by Hugh NiDlock.
CMiiskin Cocit
All graduates wear coonskin coats and carry a bottle of
•wliis!(y. Whether this is true or not makes no difference
■whatsoever, because this is the way we choose to think of
them. We may not see one coonskin coat over the weekend,
■which would lie rather disappointing, or maybe no one will
get drunk at the game Saturday, -which is extremely doubt-
ful. But our mental picture remains the same — you cannot
be a .orraduate without a coonskin coat.
For us, all Traduates attended university in the mad
wild twenties. Their whole undergraduate career was de-
voted to making life miserable for those in authority. They
constantly attendpd all night parties, drank "whisky out of
teacups and read II. L. Mencken. They rarely knew what
course tl'.ey were in. and if they did, made a special point
of avoiding it in their reading.
All we would like to say is that things have changed.
Whisky is no longer drunk out of teacups, and H. L. Mencken
is no longer rea''. And worst of all university students are
as gentle as Iambs. ^
There have been no kidnappings this year. No one has
atteiiv-ted to steal the Skule cannon and the UC dragon
remn'n^. undi-^airli-'d. No on has been tarred and feathered
an'l l.ft on top of the flag pole. There has been no mass
movrm ;tU- to teni- the turnstiles out of the University Book-
store and deposit, tliem in President Smith's office.
In fact, the whole Meds-Skule-Arts rivalry seems to
have been transmuted from a thing of fire and colour to an
attemot to out-silenc-e the others. Each faculty seems to be
bent on provinT that it can be less obtrusive than the
other. And we are achieving a fine degree of anonymity.
There Lsn't even an atheist club on the campus. The
anar 'hists are entirely unorganized — we even wonder if
they exist. Inriec'\ few students are interested in belonging
to clubs at all, although there are still some who like to
organize them.
Indeed, thin.gs have got so bad that the Students' Ad-
ministrative Council has formed a Co-Ordinating Committee
— and at a time when there is hardly anything left to co-
ordinate save club executives.
Few people would have thought it possible to have
achieved such a high peak of dullness. But somehow we
have managed.
We would like to ask you, Mr.' Coonskin Coat, to have
a talk with the lui.Iergraduate? on the gentle art of raising
hell. If it were not impracticable, we would .suggest a lecture
because they are so depresisingly well attended nowadays.
But how will you recognize an undergraduate? It will
not be easy and he will slip past you if you're not very
careful. Generally, he is a tall young man with brown hair
and horn-rimmed spectacles and a trench coat. He is always
hurrying — we don't now where or why, unless it's to lec-
tures — and has a serious preoccupied look o"n his face.
The future of the world lies with him. you know, and he's
taking it awfully serious on the surface at least.
The one really encouraging thing that can be said about
undergraduates today is that they will eventually graduate.
Then they will become part of the Coonskin Coat tradition
and talk about the Wild Things They Did As Under-
graduates.
However, we can't help regretting the fact that the
graduates have taken the Coonskin "Coat with them, leaving
us with the trench coat. It is awfully hard to be wild
and woplly within the conservative confines of a tan trench
•oat.
Editor, The VarsKy:
This is the University of Toronto and
you are its voice. It is not the University
of McGill, nor the University of British
Columbia, nor the University of Sas-
katchewan, nor the University of Mani-
toba, nor an.v other University in Canada.
It is the University of Toronto, our Uni-
versity. It is the largest University in the
country and one privileged and honoured
with a tradition second to none, and a
tradition Sir, which we ourselves' deny. A
tradition Sir, which you deny.
Have we nothing left to say ourselves
that we must half-fill the pages of our
paper with some worthwhile but mostly
second-rate reprints from other University
papers? Arc the students from other
Canadian Universities more intelligent,
more vocal, more far-sighted, more hope-
ful, more capable, more aggressive, mpre
vocal, more dynamic than we? Or are we
ourselves dull and blind and torpid that we
cannot fill the pages of our own univer-
sity paper, five times a week for a mere
hundred issues a year with something new
and fresh and thoughtful that we can call
our own?
Have we nothing left to say? Are not
the vital issues which surround every
plane of our life, international, national,
political, social, legal, cultural, academic,
scientific, religious, artistic, poetic, per-
sonal Issues: issues whih are broader and
more magestic and more fearful than ever
in the history of mankind, worthy of some
comment?
In a world v/hich looks to us for lead-
ership do we remain .silent? Dare we i-e-
main silent? Dare we to spend four years
of our lives in the highest institution of
learning that our society has produced,
privileged as few are privileged, and yet
to remain silent?
Dare we to accept that privileged posi-
tion wherein we share in the greatness of
the knowledge of mankind; wherein we
see and understand and feel the power of
'"8ll
the dignity of learning; wherein throi
circumstance and discipline and vision
are gifted with the future of our nation
and yet say nothing? '
Dare we to fight and to sacrifice a^d
to die for our freedom, for our preciou,
freedom of expression, and then tLii„
aside and ignore it?
Do we know our privilege? Do we kno\y
the greatness of our ancestors? Do we
know the challenges they met
and
triumphed over to make us what we are
Or do we think our heritage is something
which grew of itself through time and thj
inclination without effort or courage or
conviction? _
Have we really nothing to say ? Have all
the frontiers been pushed back and all thj
land explored? Have all the argumenij
been settled and all the issues put to rest;
Has everything been said? Has all tlij
beauty been described ? Has all the poetry
been written? Has all the living and the
longing been experienced; all the evil and
the .selfishness condemned. Ha\'e"we noth.
ing left to say?
Sir, we ai-e the heart of a great Uni.
versify. We are a mighty body of stu.
dents; young, hopeful, courageous and
powerful and holding in our hands not
only our own individual destiny, but that
contribution to the destiny of our nation
and race which we by our good fortune
inherit. But we must speak.
We must rise and stand and speak and
tell what we know, regardless of our mi.i.
takes and yet regarding our mistakes. J,t.
we know, we must speak, and if we don't
know then -we must ask. But we must
speak.

Editor, The Varsity:
In recent editions, The Varsity
has opened its columns to a dis-
cvission of the proposed visit of
Soviet students to Canada. I pro-
pose herein to set forth my reasons
for supporting the NFCUS de-
cision to withdraw the invitation
presented by Mr. Lasure to lUS.
Good Wil!
Editor, The Varsity:
A letter in Wednesday's Varsity
expressed a negative view to the
question of inviting Russian
students to Canada. Tt seems to
me that the writer of this letter
has not calculated sufficiently
the possible effects, psychological
and political, of a point of view
whicli in effect that no act of
goodwill towards Russia can be
justified. Let us consider for a
minute that our proposed in-
vitation to a Soviet student de-
legation followed an initial In-
vitation to Canadian students by
Russian students, and - that this
reciprocati,on ot invitations ap-
parently earned a warm response
from the student representatives
assembled at the lUS Council
meeting at Warsaw. With these
Invitations exchanged the question
before us is not whether we like
or dislike the Soviet Union. The
question we Canadian students
must decide is v.hether or not we
are going to show our.selves as will-
ing as the students of Russia to-
day to be friends. If the Soviet
students hold their invitation
open at th!- critical juncture in
world affairs, and v/e Canadian
students shut the door, then we,
not they must accept the reput-
ation and the responsibility for
being unfriendly and creating
bai*Iers. If tbis doesn't matter to
us personally, should we not con-
sider what this will look like to
the millions of people around the
world who have been through
war, and who at this moment are
determining \v\\q are their like-
liest peace '-ets among the cold
war powers.
< Omar Wslnuley,
III Bmnuuiael
I do not necessarily agree with
their reasons for doing so, but
rather with the principle involved.
As a recent nameless correspon-
dent has pointed out. Communism '
is the enemy of Democracy and
should be foiled at every turn. I
do not propose, however, that this
can ■ be successfully achieved
thi'ough military action alone, for
the problem is one of ideology.
Ml-. Churchill's words of Jan. 15,
1912. while speaking to the House
of Assembly in Bermuda, will
serve a double use here, for ttie
case is paralled: "We are confront-
ed with totalitarian States which
deny as a fundamental principle-
the right of free debate and the
expression of popular opinion."
It would be a mistake to deny
a visit to Canada of any students
of the USSR who could, without
serious personal danger, make the
trip. By this danger I mean, the
political significance such a visit
would have in the eyes of the
MVD or Russian secret police. I
cannot help but suppose that
this very danger threatens the
correspondent who has had his
"name withheld on request." If
this so (and I have no means of
knowing) i must quickly condemn
the brief blurb contributed by
Vickt Sher in the Oct. 23rd issue.
The tliought comes to me that her
thought concerning the matter
was as brief as was her letter. I
would recommend to her that she
search the halls of UC for a per-
son who has experienced Russian
"Peoples Democracies". If she
should fail to find anyone tliere,
she might consider visiting the
faculty of engineering where'
several dozen, at least, may.
encountered by one with patience
to do so.
The offer _made by Mr. Lazure
was a splendid one if it could
conceivably be accepted with tl^s
objective spirit intended. As i^'Ir.
Paul Cadbury whose address \vi^>
reported in the Oct. 24t.h is^nf
said, "As high as 99% of the peo!)la_
lack any knowledge of the West's
living standards. Industrialization
and scientific progress." WHY IS
THIS SO? Not because we don't
.wght Soviet students to come to
Canada, but because it is not i"
the interests of the Soviet govern-
ment to allow the circulation ti'
such information.
Thus a visit by Soviet students
here would serve no useful puf
pose except to further Soviet pro-
paganda. At the same time
personal freedom of those studc"'^
who did come would be in j^'*'
pardy upon return to their hotne-
land. Another series of pre-da^vn
arrests would take place. A
months later more "volunteers
would join the labor camps on
Stlberia. Thank God I'm a Cans'
dian!

LUES SNEAK BY GAELS
Block and Tackle
Tricolor Has Spirit
But Loses Tilt 15-7
By BRUCE MACDONALD
It was a fighting Queen's team that absorbed a 15-7
defeat at the hands of the Blues before a homecoming
crowd of 25.143 people at Varsity Stadium last Saturday
afternoon. The Gaels hit hard, and Ross McKelvey all but
ran his heart out for the Tricolor, but i\\ey simply didn't
have the goods to upset a league-leading team that on
occasion, looked as if it were about- ripe for the picking.
That Blue line is powerful, and
when it made up its mind to work,
there seemed to be nothing that
the Gaels could do about it. But too
above picture, a completely unidentifEed
kity player was, until sharply stopped, making
nsatlonal ran around the right end of the line,
the photograph was printed backwards.
Unfortunately the players' numbers are not visible
and the photographer is not sure when he took
the picture. The type of rugby played on Saturday
can be judged by the grim faces of the players.
|fo Yells For Injured Players
)ectators Boo Cheerleaders
lln the last quarter of the Queen's-Varsity rugby game on Saturday afternoon, fullback
le Oneschuk was injured. The Varsity cheerleaders did not lead a yell as the crowd
Ictt'd, and as a result the cheerleaders were booed by some of the students. To most of
Istudents that was all that they knew about the booing incident.
iThe head cheerleader, Jim Dooiey, was instructed by the Blue and White Society not
fad cheers for individual players when they were injured, as it was felt that applause
j in better taste and would make the players feel better than a yell ending "fight, fight.
It." However the Blue and White Society did not tell the students about the new pro-
; nor the reasons for clapping night that he felt applause was in
often, runners like Bobby Dale
found themselves trying to push
their way through a waU of charg^
ing linemen.
The game was an exciting one
to watch, with the issue in doubt
until Varsity notched their fourth
quarter touchdown. Queen's held
their own with the Blues in the
offensive department, gaining 17
first downs to J6 for the Blues,
and completing 7 forward passes as
compared with two completions for
Varsity. Tony Adams, taking over
from Al Haig in the kicking depart
ment. collected himself three singles,
two of them booming 70 yard punts.
Varsity were offside nine times
throughout the game, and some of
theU- best gains were neutralized by
this error. With only a few mo-
ments gone- in the first quarter.
Oneschuk had the crowd on its feet
with a spectacular 30 yard runback
of a Gael punt, Queen's were award-
ed a 5 yard pen:Uty and made a
first down. The next Gael kick was
good for a pwint when McFarlane
was rouged behind the line.
The Blues took over on their 25-
yard line and started to roll. Ones-
chuk picked up 21 yards off right
tackle behind some beautiful block'
ing. McParlane's 30 yard run on the
next play was neutralized by an-
other Varsity offside, but he carried
again for 13 yards and a first. Bew-

A statement Issued by the Blue
and White Society concerning the
Incident reads as follows
"The Blue and White Society
wishes to clarify the stand taken by
the cheerleaders at the football
game Satui-day, with regard to i
certain group from the student sec-
tion who showed bad taste in ex-
pressing their attitude towards the
Varsity cheerleaders while an m-
jured player was still on the field.
"The Blue and White Society de-
cided at the beginning of this fall
that the cheerleaders would set an
example of good sportsmanship and
respect towards the injured player
by leading the spectators In ap-
plause rather than a 'fight, fight,
tighf fonn of yell when the mjured
player is assisted off the field. This
method of expressing approbation
to an injured player, regardless of
on whose team he is playing, was
endorsed by Bob Masterson and the
Varsity team.
"The Society regrets thai it did
not convey to the students, at the
beginning of the season, the form
in which the cheerleaders would
lead the spectators In cheering by
applauding with a more sincere feel-
ing of respect and gratitude towards
an injured player.
"We hope therefore that the stu-
dents will agree with us that ap-
plauding an injured Play" as he
leaves the field pays a bettei def-
erence to hhn." ^ ^

quarter.
Charters pounced on Dale's fum-

the Gaels possession on the Var-

velled around right end for 8 yards,
and then bulled his way to the
Blue 1 on an unorthodox spread
formation. The Blue line held for

the second time. Adams kicked two

minutes of the half to make the

The turning point in the gama

quick kick on the last play of the

The Bracken trophy, given to the Canadian University
newspaper with the best editorial, was removed from its
display case in The Varsity Office last Friday night. In its
place was a copy of Friday's editorial complaining about the
lack of "hell-raising" around the campus.
The Bracken trophy is presented each year by Canadian
University Press (CUP) to the paper which three indepen-
dent judges consider to have written the best editorial of
the year. It was presented to The Varsity at the CUP con-
vention last Christmas.
The Varsity is asking the persons who took the trophy
lo come back for the sample case. The office is usually
vacant from midnight to 9 a.m.
The first lecture on the Major
Series of the Hillel Foundation will
be held on Wednesday, Oct. 31st,

basic contribution to modern
Jewish thought. Among her other

CombinatSoei Nighfl
By JOHN BAif£R
For the first time since its start
thi-ee years ago the Homecoming
Dance was combined with the an-
nual Open House. The result of
this combination of two very
popular events was inevitable:
Hart House could not cope with
the crowds, which, according to
one official exceeded 2.300.
The exhibits of the Art Gallery,
the Camera Club, the Lee collec-
tion and the Ham Radio Chib of
Hart House were attractions of
Open House. Nobody stayed at
one exhibit as long as they prob-
ably would have liked because
there were so many things to do
and to see.

By JERRY BROWN
An estimated crowd of 7.000
v.atched the mammoth three-hour
production put on by the Blue and
While Society last Friday night.
Producer Ben Wise and a wide |
variety of talent thrilled the audi-
ence with everything from the
Royal Couple to Tweepers. Al-
though the long show lagged at
times, the talent procured by the
Blue and While Society lived up
to previous press notices.
The events were ushered in by
a 50-voice choir led by Bruce
Snell. M.C.'s Ben Wise and Har-
old Na.shman started things roll-
ing with the Nixbees. Haa'old Bee
and Joe Tenenbaum. two well-co-
ordinated muscular gentlemen
with a talent for gymnastics.
Cof.ch Masterson was introduced
next and stressed the good work
that The Blue and White Society
was doing to encourage the AU-
Varsity spirit. He introduced the
team members one by one as they
ran across the field to line up,
first and second teams to the right
and left of the stage. John Ar-
moui , Director of the Blue and
White Society made a presenta-
tion to the coach on behalf of the
University for the splendid work
that he has done in the sport field.
Masterson then hustled his charges
off to bed.
The show then continued with
solos from blonde Margo McKin-
non who sang "Hallelui^Lh. Come
on Get Happy." and Desmond
Boult. Ill Trinity, who gave his
version of "Because of You."
One of the most amusing per-
formers during the whole show
was Jack Marigold who constant-
ly reappeared, each time with a
new line and a new costume. His
rendition of Mother Goose nurs-
ery rhymes will keep many stu-
dent awake finding out what real-
ly happened.
Jack Northmore with his imita-
tions, was another of the fine per-
formers. Jack had the audience
roaring with his takeoffs on popu-
lar styles of singing.
Among the other attractions was
a chorus line from the Vic Bob
Revue, the Queen's Pipe Band and
the fine singing of the choir with
their renditions * of the Whiffin-
poof Song and the new Follow the
Blues. No account would be com-
plete without mention of the fine
work of Sam Arron. Edith Green-
berg and Martin Myers. Their
imitation of a French play with
English sub-titles (given by Sam
Aaron ) was a masterpiece of
understatement.
The evening drew to a close as
a quartet, the Four Artsmen.
George Tovell . Monty Coughan .
Larrv Heisey and Ernie Ball,
gave several lovely renditions. The
Blue and White Red Feather float
climaxed i:he tln-ee-hour show with
an appeal for a worthy cau.se.

Two U.C. Students
Running For C.C.F.
In Coming Election
Two University College students,
Marvin Gordon and Walter Park-
er, both III UC, are running in ttie
coming provincial election as
CCP candidates in the Toronto
district. Parker is running against
W. J. Dunioy (Con.), minister of
education and former director of
university extension, in Eglinton
riding, while Gordon will oppose
Joseph Salzberg (LPP) in Spa-
dina riding.
Parker has been active in the
CCP Youth Movement for six
years and is the president of the
movement. He told The Varsity
that he is actually undertaking
two campaigns at the same time
as lie is running for the University
Mock Parliament as well as for
the Legislative Assembly. Park-
er said that important issues in
the coming elections are the in-
creased fee and the drop in en-
rolment. He quoted figures from
the Dominion Bureau of Statistics
Bhowing that one out of every 100
persons in Canada go through uni-
versity; 32 drop out before they
finish Public School, only 22 fin-
ish junior matriculation, 13 finish
senior, and nine start university.
Parker said that the CCF feels
the individual lacks real educa-
tional opportunity and that these
figures make a mockery of Lib-
eral and Conservative claims to
have given Canadians an adequate
standard of educational opportun-
ity. Inosfar as such oppoi'tunlties
are denied Canadians, democracy
itself is denied.
Both Dominion and Provincial
governments, in Parker's opinion,
can do more to improve the uni-
versity fees situation in Canada.
He said that the CCP in Ontar-
io is calling for the- Ontario gov-
ernment to build 50.000 houses,
particularly in the Toronto dis-
trict.
Parker felt that the deplorable
housing situation, which makes
more difficult the problem of liv-
ing while at university, needed Im-
mediate action.

IiMt Saturday's game ended witti
M of the best fights for the goal
post to take place in the last two
yews. One post and the cross-bar
were torn down by the engineers
from Queen's before the Varsity
students could get down to the
south end of the field, but the other
post was surrounded by fighting
students for at least 40 minutes.
The Queen's men rallied around
a group of engineers for five or
six rushes to get at the post, while
the Toronto men kept their backs
to the post and rolled back any-
one trying to get near it. Finally
one short Queen's man climbed on
to the shoulders of a tall friend,
and then the two charged the de-
fenders. TTie bottom man was
stopped dead at the edge of the
defenders" circle, but the top man
jiunped from his shoulders in an
attempt to reach the goal post. He
didn't make it to the post.
One big Toronto man, a light-
heavyweight boxer, complained that
he couldn't get into a real fight;
every time he tried to trade a few
friendly blows with a Queen's man.
several would rnsh up to shake
hands with him and pat hSm on
the back. He stood about waiting
for the goal post to fall and was
disappointed when nothing hap-
pened. For four years this particu-
lar student has been hit at least
once during each rugby season by,
a falling goal post or cross bar.
Very lUtlc happened on Saturday
afternoon except for the booing of
the cheerleaders, the goal post
fight, and the rugby game. The
Varsity horse was not at the game,
but Ajax the mule might make It
to the McGill game. During the
past few years the horse has rep-
resented the imiversity, In an equine
way, and has confounded the
enemies of old Varsity. Last year
the horse chased the Queen's bear
(Mr. Boo Hoo the Vinth), and
carried tired cheerleaders about the
field.
Also missing were the great
Canadian drunks who usually
wander onto the field to show the
amount of liquor they can drink,
or play leap frog or anno^
cheerleaders. The cheerleader^
annoyed by two drunks \^^. *'
"gentlemen" stayed in the
while they pleaded for a simj
for "just a little cartwheel" ^'
When the stadium was eo,
after the game, there appear"'
be more empty cans of beer^
are normally left after a
game. Perhaps the Queen's
dents are buying their bee
Quebec this year. '
One student had a pair oE
that held a mickey apiece
he walked about at half time
other had his supply in what, w.
like a bladder while a third
punch.
However the nnstmg heroes o)
game were the City of Tor,

fight was in progress and let^
students settle their own liJ
ences without interference,
was (JUite a change from Uic c*
sack detail that broke up
post fight several years ago.

lat they have affected the deer

population is the condition found
through the greater part of the
counties of Haliburton, Muskoka
and Hastings. Here we have a great
many old farms which have proven
unsuccessful agriculturally revert-
ing to second growth hardwoods
and mixed woods, interspersed with
dense cedar swamps, all of which
combine to provide a neai-ty per-
fect environment for deer. Young
growth hardwoods mbied with
grassy "patches provide the ideal
condition for summer feeding for
deer. The ideal condition in winter
feeding is found in the dense cedar
swamps and in the twigs of the
young second growth trees that are
so common in this second growth
area.
But this is not the only condi-
tion that lends to promote deer
population. Other places which
■provide plenty of good food and
shelter are recent cut-over areas,
and recent burns. These are good
only as long as the material stays
in a condition such that it provides
all the requirements of the deer
population feeding on it. For a
sustained yield hunting program
one must take into consideration
the fact that nature changes, and
for that reason hunting parties
should try to create the best con-
ditions on their hunting grounds
themselves, to keep up the deer
population.
It is not impossible to hunt for a
Irfng time on areas other than like
those I have mentioned and get
good results. But the fact remains
that in areas such as Algonquin
park where the hardwood forest is
virtually untouched, heavy hunting
such as is experienced farther
south, could not be sustained.
We see then that, despite the fact
that there is more and more for-
est area being cut every year, yet
for the same reason there will be
more and more deer for the hunters
every year.

SPS Beat Meds 29-1
Newell Gets 3 Majors
After an even first half. Jr.
S.P.S. unleashed a splurge in the
second lialf. and wallced all over
the Meds n's and took a 29-1 win
Friday afternoon on the back cam-
pus. Passes from B. Horton to
N. Newall almost told the story
of the game, this play accounting
for three of the touchdowns as well
as plenty of long gains. Horton's
passing was close to perfection;
he ran out a fourth TD and took
care of some of the kicking.
Keweil was the big scorer with 5
points. No one in particular stood
out for the doctors for they were
pretty well overwhrfmed by the
engineers.
The teams fought on even terms
during the first half. After the
k ick-off , Sku le moved deep i nto
Meds territory, right to tlie five
yard line but they lost the ball on
a fumble and the tiireat was end-
ed. Meds had the Skulemen back-
ed info their own zone during the
second quarter but were held out
of pay flirt. Long kicks and off-
side penaltie.s on S.P.S. were the
features and the half ended on a |
typical note with Meds unable to |
get anywhere with the ball on
three straight plays.
Sknlc kiched off to begin the
second. Meds lost the ball on a
fumble at their 20. Horton passed
to Newell in tlie end zooe for the
first major btrt the convert at-
tempt was no good. Meds kicked
and Babirad ran it back to the 4S.
A pass to Newell was good for a
first and then he gathered in an-
other Horton pass and went around
the end for a TD. Smele convert-
ed. Then Meds got deep in S.P.3.
ground where Jones kicked over
the deadline for one point. Sknle
took it on the 45. Horton cooaplet-
ed two passes to the 20 and car- [
ried it over himself. He passed to |
Smele for the extra point on the'
last play of the third qaarter.
Med.-; kicked to Evans who got
it up to the 0. Horton passed to
Lyons who went all the way to
the Meds 10. Then Horton threw
to Newell for another score. Lyons
booted the convert. Now came one
of the odd plays one expects in j
these games. Skule kicked but]
Meds fumbled and Bannister re- j
covered for the engineers. As he |
was going down under a pile of [
doctor.s, he lateralled to Day who
van it for a major. Bannister con- ,
verted. Skule was threatening .
again as time ran out. [
Baby Blues Smother R.L T.
For Third Straight Victory
Di.splaying a consistently good passing attack and an almost equally potent runniii|,
game, the Intermediate football Blues smothered Eyerson Tech 29-7 last Friday before \
small crowd in Varsity stadium. It was the third straight win for the Baby Blues, the
other two coming in league competition against OAC and Western.
Ryerson managed to hold the Intermeds to an H-7 margin in the first half, but Fit?,
henry and Geekie opened up in the second to pass the TechYnen dizzy. Kay's ten-ific booting
was all that kept Ryerson from absorbing a worse defeat.
Steve
Onesehuek
Dalt White, assistant coach of
the Senior Blues, announced last
night that Steve Oneschuck, in-
jured in the game - against the
Queen's Gaels last Saturday would
definitely be able to play this com-
ing: weekend.
Steve's Injury was a severe leg
crsmp" that comes with fatigue. It
has troubled liim in the past, and
although not serious, it is ex-
tremely painful. Blue trainers feel
that with the proper treatment,
Steve will be back in action within
a few days.
oiuin^ Around the
Varsity scored first after Bob;
Kimoff returned a Ryerson punt to
his own 30. Pawcett took the ball
on the next play and swept around
end all the way to the Tech 43.
Two plays later Geekie passed to
Etenny Nelson in the clear for
touchdown. Earl Ford's convert
made the score 6-0.
Syersoii rui tfa« kick-off back to
ft sown 28. After an exchange of
kicks, BoltoD of RTT went 20 yards
to his own 38 on a double reverse.
Varsity held and Kay hoofed a long
one that rolled to the Toronto 23.
Two plays later Pitzhenry loosened
up his pitching arm and hit Bob
Milne with successive passes to bring
the ball to Ryerson's 42. Two
plunges put Varsity on the 32 from
where Kimoff galloped around end
to the 4, hurdling one of his own
players en i-oute. Don Pawcett car-
ried over for the major on an ex-
tension play. The try for the PAT
was low and the score at the end
of the first quarter was 11-0.
Ryerson finaUy hit the sooresheet
in the second session after they took
possession on Varsity's 45. Mudiy
faded back and tossed a flip pass to
Kay standing an the line of scrim-
mage, and he went to the 22. Fear
Tech worked the Mudry-to-Kav
play again for a major. The convert
made the score 11-6. Pawcett was
rouged on Btay's kick before the end
of the first half to put Ryersoq
within four points of the Blues.
The third quarter saw the Inter,
meds capitalize on a Tech fumble
to run the score to 17-7. Earl Foid
picked up a fumble in tlje Ryei-sou
backfield and ambled 35 yai'ds for
a converted TD,
Fitihenry really beg»ia to click on
his passes in the last quarter as the
Blue and White ran away with the
contest. He pitched one from his
own 30 to Pawcett on Ryerson's 4o.
and Don dashed the rest of the
way. Ford converted and the score
was 23-7. Later in the quarter Pitz-
henry threw strikes to Don Smith
( twice) and Harrison to put the
Blues on Tech's 5. Housley split
the line for three, and Harri.'^on
took a pitch-out from Geekie to
around end into pay dirt. Geekie
passed to Chorestecki for the PAT
to make the final score 29-7.
Fitzhenry, Kimoiff, Fawcett. and
Geekie were the best for Varsity
while Mudry, Kay. and Bolton were
standouts for Ryerson. The Inter-

Soccer Blues Win 1-0
In Clash With R.M.C
By TOM BROADHURST
Last Saturday the University of
roionto Senior Blues eked out a
close 1-0 victory over the R.M.C.,
to continue on their winning ways
In the Intercollegiate Soccer loop.
Tile cadets made a much strong-
er showing in this game than the
game played at R.M.C. last week.
They were quicker on the ball,
tackling surely, and the defence
cleared well to make the going a
little rough tor the Blues.
As the close score indieates, this
was 11 gajne in which the defence-
es of both teams excelled, giving
both forward lines little oppoi-tun-
ity to score. The cadets came very
close to scoring on occasion, but
they were plagued by poor shoot-
ing. The Blues were also poor in
this department, but one shot tak-
en from an almost impossible
angle by Jose Atucha provided the
difference between the two teams,
as tile only goal of the game re-
sulted, and the Blues were able to
take in . those two valuable points
to bolster their position in the
league standing.
The game opened with R.M.C.
attacking strongly, and Bobby
Lune, the Blues' goalie was called
upon to make some good saves to
keep Varsity's score sheet clean.
However, the Blues perked up,
and began to force the Cadets back
into theii- own half. But no goals
were forthcoming, as R.M.C. 's de-
fence held on, and .shots by Man-
uel Atucha and Bob Antoni went
wide
R.M.C. then beean to press again
as their forwards sailed down the
field with some nice passing move-
ments, and Don Hargraft, and
Tommy Pierce were unlucky in
shooting over the bar. Then the
Cadets missed their golden oppor-
tunity, as a goal mouth scramblfe
sent the boll scurrying to the
right of the goal, and Hargraft was
again Johnny-on-the-spot, but he
shot the ball wide of the post.
The aecood half opened with
the Blues resuming the offensive,
and were unlucky when Ken Jessop
sliot wide of the post. The Cadets
were not out of the picture by any
means at this point, and nice com-
bination between Jobn Riffensteis.
and Tommy Pierce brougiit the
play deep into Varsity territory,
and a wild goal mouth melee re-
sulted. Pierce shot— the ball hit
the goal post— Riffenstein fired in
the rebound— it was blocked, and
finally cleared up tlie field by Dave
Johnson. Varsity's light half.
That proved to be tlie last real
threat by the Cadets, and minutes
later John Atucha raced through
on a loose ball, and though harri-
ed by R.M.C.'s left back, Al
Hampton, hooked the ball into the
net to open Varsity's tally sheet.
This was all that was needed to
spark the Blues, and they continu-
ed to press hard., but no more
goals were scored as R.M.C.'s de-
fence held on. The final whistle
blew with the score 1-0 for the
Blues, as they marked up their
fifth win in six starts.

Several important games were
played in tlie Women's Basketball
league last Thursday night, at
O.C.E.
The first game saw P.H.E. 3's
take a one-sided 14^ defeat at the
hands of the U.C. Seniors. Joan
Mooney was high scorer for U.C.
witJi 8 points while Lenore Elliot
and June Plante sliared P.H.E.
honors with a field goal each.
The second game saw the P.O.-T.
Prosh B squad playing a fast and
seemingly inspired Nurses' team.
The future R.N.'s took an early
lead and kept well ahead of their
opponents for the remainder of the
game, ending up on the long end
of a 20-8 score. Donna Parr of
the RJ^.'s was high scorer with
1^ pointa. ; ; i . j i .

Revenge Is Sweet,
Trinity Victors 1 3-0
Against Foresters
Although it took almost a year. Trinity College finally
came back to whitewash their opponents in last year's
Mulock Cup final, by beating Forestry 13-0 in a bitterly
fought .contest wihch was played on a greasy field.
The first half went scorele.ss as both Trinity and Fores-
try deadlocked in a tight see-saw struggle. Although Eddie
Marcus and "Boomer Booth" of Forestry ripped off three
or four long gains, the Woodsmen were hampered by penal-
ties which seemed to come at the wrong moments. The same
half saw gains by Steedman and Lawson of Trinity but
never long enough to be of any real danger to Forestry.
The third quarter saw an invigor-
ated Trinity team hit the field and
after kicking off to the Woodsmen,
they £oon bottled them up for very
little gain, and aided by two penal-
ties handed out to Forestry, they
punted deep Into Forestry territory
to make the task even harder for
the green-clad squad. Later in the
same quarter. Forestry lost a chance
to be in potential .scoring position
when they were caUed on an off-
side penalty after blocking a Trinity
kick and booting the ball downfield
to Trinity 10-yard line. Minutes
later. Harry Meridetli of Trinity
lifted a long high punt of at least
65 yards to the Forestry deadline
to open the scoring in the game.
Sparked by their one point lead,
Trinity completely outclassed the
Woodsmen in a wide open fourth
quarter. It was only a very sliort
time before Steedman, on two beau-
tiful runs, advanced the ball to the
Forestry five. Tom Thomas took a
wide pitchout and sUced off tackle
for the major, with Doug Anderson
bootuig the convert. Forestry receiv-
ed Uie klckotf and after two in-
complete passes were forced to punt
to midlleld. Trtolty then made use
of the old sleeper pass with Ander-
son throwing to Corcoran, who took

second touchdown. Anderson again
hoofed the convert.

with one desperation pass after the
other, with playing coach Gord
Whitcombe at the quarterback spot
for the first time. Although two
of the passes were completed. Pores-
try could not get the ball over the
line. They were evidently trying for
the major, for they were close
enough at several points to break
the shutout by kicking a single.
The game ended with Whitcombo
bemg ousted for fighting and Trin-
ity maktag sure by Intetcepting one
of the "Greenshirt'a" passes on the
last play.
This win puts Xrinlly in first
place in the second gi-oup with St.
Mike's in second and Forestry In
last place. Tomorrow St. Mike's will
be gunning to tie up the lead when
they meet Trtoity in a renewal
of the dose battle they hatf in tMe
opening game which the "Black-
Men" from Trinity took by a one
point margin. It is fairly evident
from the last two games of this
group that unless Forestry come up
with a brand of football that la con-
siderahly better than that displayed
so far this esason. last yera's cham-
piona will not be in the running
when playoff time rolls around, but
the season is not even half finish-

A Poor Show
Saturday's football game was a dull and insipid affair
as far as the sport itself was concerned. It was, as someone
remarked, "the kind of game you never remember". Luckily
or unluckily, however, the afternoon was saved from utter
anonymity by the rudeness of Varsity spectators partly as
A result of mismangement by the Blue and White Society.
The lasting impression .which the afternoon ^nade on
many people centred about the unfortunate injury received
by the popular halfback Steven Oneschuk. When the cheer-
leaders did not lead a special cheer for the injured player,
as has been the habit in past years, the crowd, or part of it,
was furious. A round of applause was not enough for the
hot-blooded enthusiasts who, up till then, had been watch-
ing the game quietly.
Yet the cheerleaders were only acting on orders from
the Blue and White Society.
After asking the opinions of Coach Bob Masterson and
members of the team this fall, the Blue and White Society
instituted a new policy. Cheerleaders were instructed to
lead a round of applause for the injured player, rather than
a special cheer.
Yet, for reasons best known to themselves, the Blue
and White Society shrouded this change of policy in the
utmost secrecy. But it was the cheerleaders who took a lot
of unnecessary blame for this piece of negligence.
While the Blue and White Society may have blundered
badly, it was the crowd that behaved most inexusably. Their
An occasional look at the newspaper headlines,
magazine feature titles, or the movie pages should
suffice to make the most csaual observer aware
that college athletics in the United States are in
the most unccmfortable position of their brief,
stormy history. Announcements of the "de-
emphasis" of intercollegiate sports (mainly football)
in certain colleges have in the past come at
regular intervals. Not until this year, however, has
there been siich widespread condemnation of the
whole system of heavy athletic programs with
subsidization of athletes in major intercollegiate
sports.
The press, true to its traditions, has taken full
advantage of the situation, perhaps playing up the
sensational aspects (and there are plenty of them)
more than they deserve. Periodicals have hit the
stands carrying everything from vehement articles
explaining why Cowpath State Teachers dropped
football, to weighty editorials calling upon Ameri-
can Youth for a complete reassessment of its
values. A movie appeared in Toronto recently which
synthesized practically all the evils which happen
or can happen to subsidized college football players.
In considering the causes of the situation, one
immediately thinks of the basketball scandals in
■which college players accepted money from gam-
blers for throwing their games. Actually this has
nothing to do with subsidization, since players
would be more prone to accept bribes if they
needed the money (there has been no similar
instance in legitimate professional sport in over
thirty years), but provides devastating commentary
on -what is of foremost value to the players, and on
their reasons for being in college — and life. It also
brought to the public's attention, even if, only by
association of ideas, the general deterioration
developing in intercollegiate sports.
Colleges, mostly small ones, axe cutting out inter-
collegiate football right and left. Rising costs, both
to players who must be subsidized and of athletic
equipment and so forth, mean that capacity crowds
must be gotten for games in order that the athletic
department breaks even. With decreasing enrol-
ment in colleges today this becomes more difficult.
'Moreover, many small colleges' reputations depend
to a great extent on their football or (more com-
monly) basketball successes, and not heing able tn
compete with the biggies in the inflationar!
. scramble for good teams, they suffer in more thai
' just their athletic departments. Each year xixott
are finding that they cannot stand the pace.
Then on top of all this came the news last j^i
that practically all the West Point football atS
basketball teams had been breaking the hono^
code in order to pass their exams. Greatly
strengthened was the impression that team player!
in colleges were, or at least thought they sho{\u
be, on a free ride through college, a sort of
gladiator class meriting special considerations ana
freedom from the academic responsibilities of other
students.
Canada has had little experience with problein.
of this sort. Football is important only in the fou,
or five big colleges of Ontario and Montreal, whicii
all have academic reputations capable of keeping
the enrolment and the finances up to par (and
consequently also the athletic departments) without
having to rely on high class football teams. This
year at Varsity there has been even less talk than
usual about football scholarships and so forth, ng
doubt because we have a winning team.
McGill, through the alumnae Touchdown Club,
openly recruits and loans money to football piayj
ers. Western, tliough not admitting it officially,
brings high school stars around for a look see anj
takes them to sports events, and then if Uipy
decide to enrol, pays their tuition and expcn
All this is done by "interested parties," no nionH,'
is taken from the funds of the university itnu.
Queen's have had much less luck with their vun,
tures in this field; I personally do not tnow my.
one at Queen's at present receiving athletic iiid.
Toronto does not* give aid to any players ofli,
cially, though it is always possible that a few may
be receiving Jielp from alumni. Dr. Smith mm
cleai- the position of the University last year when
he stated that under no circumstances would sub-
sidization of athletes be tolerated at Toronto, and
felt the student body would hack him up on hU
decision. What he based this feeling on, I would
be interested to know. But be that as it may.
there is really nothii^ to stop a "friend of tlie
family" (or two) from putting a promising pigsldn
toter through Varsity,
It would seem to me that if "we wish to avoid
the difficulties our American counterparts are
experiencing, the present policy of duplicity is not
the best. The Intercollegiate Union, possibly in
conjunction with the Canadian Amateur Athletic
Union, should agree upon a workable code defining
what practices regarding the sHbsidization and
status of athletes should be accepted — and
followed.

OUR READERS WRITE
The Exlax Slogan
Editor, The Varsity:
■ In Friday's Varsity you carried
a letter sputtering with indigna-
tion and overflowing with rhet-
oric which dared you to be a
Daniel, and condemned your pol-
icy of printing articles from other
papers. Instead of replying with
defence of that excellent cus-
tom, you simpered "honest injun"
. , , • 1 (ye gods, but ain't we cute?) and
resiionse to the whole situation, aside from being meieiy j^^cked out, blushing.
Your coy attitude is all the
more remarkable in that your edi-
torial, printed a scant few lines
from Mr. Shpherd's earnest re-
buke, was the most aggressive and
invigorating piece you have pro-
duced all year.
Mr. Shepherd wants to know
whether we are so dull that we
cannot be "fresh and thoughtful"
five times a week. The almost
illiterate pages of The Varsity
answer liim every day, with a
salvo of outstanding "dullness,
blindness and torpidity". Your
editorial e>eplains why.
The Varsity is dull because we,
the students of this "privileged
and honoui'ed" university are
dull; because we are a group of
the most naiTow -minded, unim-
aginative, sodden students that
ever didn't do anything on a
campus. It is time we gave the
little group of serious thinkers
who worry about our intellectual
integrity, and who regi-et our ir-
responsibility something to fret

to someone who was more obviously a university student.
Scorn of the young! ... At one point during the game Satur-
day, beer was being sold (or rather kept) at fifty cents a
pint. ^ Students can be ridiculously obtuse about the prin-
ciples of salesmanship. At thirty-nine cents, it still would
_ have been a sellout and a profit-maker. . . . The thei't of the
Bracken Trophy has left us somewhat disconcerted. We
rude, was a fine example of mass action.
Until the Oneschuk incident, cheering in the Varsity
sections was sporadic and uninspired. There was little en-
thusiasm. Immediately after the injury, booing and hissing
was begun by a determined and annoyed minority. Yet the
bad temper, having been introduced to the stands, caught on
like wildfire.
The cheerleaders, who for three-quarters of the game
had slaved to arouse the spirit of the spectators, managed,
through no fault of their own. to bring down the wrath of
the righteous upon themselves.
They deserve a lot of credit for continuing to lead
cheers amid the increasing ill-feeling of the crowd. It must
have been very hard to exude good feeling and" warmth
towards a standful of spectators whose pettiness was exceed-
ed only by their noise.

' be held without the sup-
port or all the parties.
The Mock Parliament Is an
annual event on the campus.
Previously members were any
interested students, who could af-
filiate with any party.
This year, however, a new sys-
stem of election will be tried for
the first time. There will be no
constituencies; each party will go
to the polls as a party. If the
Liberals, for example, win 40%
of the vote, they will receive 40%
of the seats in the legislature.
All students are eligible to vote.
This system has been tried on
other campi, including Saskat-
chewan and Manitoba, with suc-
cess.
The question of the continuance
of election plans came up last
Friday at a meeting of the Mock
■Parliament Committee, attended
by delegates from all four campus
parties. The President of the
Liberal Club, John Medcof. moved
that the elections be carried out
as already planned. Tiie resolu-
tion was supported by the Liber-
als, CCF and LFP. but opposed
by the Conservatives.
The President of . the CCF Club,
Walter Parker, commenting on
the new turn of events, said, "We
feel that the Macdonald-Cartier
Club is being very irresponsible
campus poUtical party
not ccening out in the open to
light an election." This attitude
was also supported by Shirley
Endicott, LPP Club President.
"Though there was some justi-
fication for the withdrawal of
the Macdonald-Cartier Club from
the elections, yet their open re-
luctance to participate in campus
politics is a betrayal of their
duty as a campus political party,"
said John Medcof for the Liber-
als.
The president of the Macdon-
ald-Cartier Club, David Fry, pre-
sented his party's reason for their
s^nd at the meeting Friday. He
stated that the representative*
from the club at previous meet-
ings of the Mock Parliament
Meeting were not official, and
that he had known nothing ol
the obligations involved.
"We oppose the election on the
grounds that elections and a
noisy campaign are botli out of
place on a university campus,"
he said.
He also pointed out that there
were still several alternatives
available to the club, and that the
Conservatives might go ahead
with the plan as outlined evep
yet.

The ruling was mentioned in the
statement issued by the Blue and
White Society last Sunday. It di-
rected the cheerleaders to "lead the
spectators in cheering by ap-
plauding" rather than "a 'fight,
fight, fight' form of yell when the
injured player is assisted off the
field".
"I did my best to boo the cheer-
leaders," said Alec Langford, II
Vic. "Even though the crowd was
wrong on this occasion, the cheer-
leaders have displayed poor spirit
all fall and thoroughly deserved
it," he concluded.
Brenda Gregson, also II Vic, be-
lieved that the jeers directed at
the cheerleaders "were understand-
able at first, but after a while it
was disgusting and childish —
something that might happen in
Grade eight."

Board of Ontario beer glasses and
one dazed and damaged law stu-
dent was the result of the explosion,
a sjiokesman of the panel said yes-
terday.
The real problem is not the dam-
age or the fact that it was caused
by Skule. he said. Difficulty arises
in some obscure doctrines of law re-
lating to the liability of lunatics
and and infants, the spokesman
added.
Research has disclosed, he stated,
that infancy is decided entirely by
chronological age for purpose of
law which rules out one possible
defence. The law regarding lunacy
is more obscure. Usually the only
excuse is the complete inability of
the defendant to comprehend the
nature of his act. Such a defense,
the panel felt, would be a long-
awaited admission which would be
acceptable in the eyes of the la>v.
However in addition to the physi-
cal damage there would be further
consideration for loss of prestige,
damage to chances of winning the
parade, and apprehension of ijer-
sonal harm by the malicious and
negligent setting off of explosive.^
ill crowded areas.
The panel felt that their position
under present law was unassailable
but historically it was pointed out
that civilized regions of tlie world
have always been invaded by hurdes
of barbarians who have defied the
law and it is possible that the
present situation is analogous.
'Annex USA'
Debates Topic
At West Point
The first internaUonal debate for
Trinfty College In three years will
be at West Pomt Military Academy
on November 9. The resolution will
be: The United States should be-
come a part of Canada.
The debaters. Dwight Fulford,
III Trinity, and John Barton, IV
Triility. think they will be "ec-
statically received" with such a
resolution. The main points of con-
tention will be the superiority of
the Canadian political system, and
the rectification of the historical
mistake of the unfortunate coloniai
insurrection.
It is hoped that the West Point
team will play a return engagement
after their visit to McGill later in
the season.
John Barton stated that the Uni-
versity of Toronto Debating Union
also plans a tour of the New Eng-
land States early in the New Year.

iTnveepers^ Bark
W^prse Than Biie
Controversy about Tweepers rag-
ed all over the campus yesterday
and opinions varied greatly. Grant
Gibson (I UC) thought they were
"a let down" while Gerald Found
(I SFS) remarked that "the build-
up was priceless" and "tweepers
are very interesting". But the gen-
eral idea seemed to be that the
Tweepers were a come down from
last year's Bloops.
The Director' of the Blue and
White Society, John Armour stated
that Irotn 1.500 to 2,000 Tweepers
had been sold. He added that
Tweepers will be sold on the train
to London for the Western -Varsity
game and before the game a week
Saturday. A great many people
eeem to think that Tweepers were
an anticlimax because of the great
success of the Bloop campaign last
year. Joan Morton <II Vic) thought
that more girls would have bought
Tweepers if they could have worh
them. "Cute but useless" was the
opinion of' Joyce Cartwright (II
Trinity). Pete Abels (1 UC) with an
eye to the practical side of the af-
fair remarked that "Tweepers
made good brooms".
But Tweepers seem to have ac-
complished in part perhaps the
purpose for which the Blue and
White Society designed them; they
are something that everybody can
get. and that everybody can wave
and that will help to reinforce the
All-Varsity spirit."

The Board ot Stewards ot Hart
House, meeting last Friday night,
made no decision on the question
ot whether or not female Varsity
reporters should be admitted to
Hart House debates.
Warden Ignatietf explained that
although a couple ot members felt
very strongly" about al owing
women to cover debates, "others felt
that it was a tempest in a teacup
and decided to drop the subject.
As a result no vote was taken on
the issue. _
The Hart House Debates Com-
mittee discussed the matter thor-
oughly. Warden Ignatiett said. A
letter was sent to The Varsity from
the Debates Committee recently,
requesting that only male reporters
be sent to the debates m future.
The letter thanked The Varsity for
the accurate coverage given the
debates ui the past.
Said Varsity Editor Barbara
Browne regarding the letter: "We
will contmue to give the best cover-
age passible to the Hart House
Debates — and the last Debates
story was, in our opinion, one of
the best written this year. We are
sure that the quality ot reportmg
rather than the sex of the reporter,
is ot far greater mterest to the Hart
House Debates Committee. Report-
ers, as far as The Varsity is con-
cerned, are not considered as men
and women . . . within limits."

People are tunny and so are stu-

just picked up The Varsity and
dont realize someone is watching
them.
For example — ^there is the glano-
er type of reader. He has what Is
termed a glancing eye and rather
impatient disposition. A glancer
can always oe recognized by a
hobbling head with quick move-
ments from side to side. They
usually Hip pages back and lorth
and with the thrust ot a Roman
Conqueror throw The Varsity into
the air.
The near sighted reader keeps
bis face so close to The Varsity
you can hardly see his lace, (which
may be a good thhigl. Today the
near sighted reader Is hard to
recognize— they fool us all by
using a magnifying glass.
The giggles reader is here to
stay. One can be blocks away and
still hear the giggles reader whoop-
ing it up in Hyena faslilon. What
usually hurts is. the gigglers sel-
dom know what they are laughing
at.
Sport page Nells are a dead give-
away. They always speak ot Bob

THE VARSITt
LETTERS: ONESCHUK
Tuesday, October 3o
Morons;, Wictaiors, Boori§;
Stout Play
late whistle
Editor. The Varsity:
Be "A Poor Show", Oct. 29,
1951: In order to do away with
needless recriminations, it Is quite
in order to clarify a few points
from the viewpoint of the specta-
tor re "the Oneschuk incident."
Unaware, as most of us were, of
the change of policy by the Blue
and White Society concerning
the cheers for an injured player,
■what transpired at Saturday's
game can hardly be justly as-
sessed as something "petty''.
The incident, as I recall it, pro-
duced the otmous effect. Catch-
ing a pimt on about his own 20-
yard line Oneschuk was almost
immediately cut down on a spec-
tacular diving tackle by the
Queen's end. Oneschuk, however,
in falling, became disentangled
from his grasp and attempted to
move foiTvard while still pros-
trate on the ground. As the whis-
tle had not yet sounded signify-
ing an end to the play, the
Queen's end proceeded to apply
the coup de grace to the crawl-
ing Oneschuk in the form of a
swan dive upon the latter's body.
This apparently caused the in-
Jury which to the average fan
seemed to be quite serious.
What first aroused the ire of
the fans was the slow whistle of
the referee and the subsequent
unnecessary roughness on tlie
part of the Queen's player. It is
quite imderstandable then, that
they should become all the more
provoked by the spectacle of the
Varsity cheerleaders still reclining
on the ground. Furthermore,
When one of the (^eerleaders did
run out onto the field of play
where lay the injured Oneschuk
It seemed that through disinterest
the cheerleaders had failed to see
a play which had taken place not
more than 15 yards from where
they were sitting on the sidelines.
What the crowd did subsequent
to this can hardly be considered
Inexcusable in the light of wliat
the spectator saw.
Saturday's game, moreover. Is
not to be considered a "dull" and
"insipid affair". Any game which
produces over 30 first downs
evenly distributed on both sides
could scarcely be rated as one
which hovers in the depths of
"utter anonymity". More lasting
impressions, to me at least, than
the Oneschuk injury were the
stout and inspired line play of
the Queen's forward wall, the
passing of Miller and the receiv-
ing of Fleming, the resurgence of
the Varsity line, when defeat
loomed as a definite possibihty
the running of Bewley, McPar-
lane, M<aielvey. Oneschuk and
the kicking of John Adams.
The cheerleaders deserve credit
for their inspired work. The sub-
sequent displeasure of the crowd
would not have resulted however,
had one of them shown the fore-
sight to run over to the P.A. an-
nouncer and had their actions ex-
plained when it became apparent
to them that the crowd were mis-
taken in their notions.
Vick HusebUt,

Idle P.A.
no publicity
Editor, The Varsity:
We quote from your editorial
of Monday, October 29 entitled
"Poor Show" — "While the Blue
and White Society may have
blundered badly, it was the crowd
who behaved most inexcusably."
We take exception to this state- ,
ment.
The Varsity committed a great-
er error by completely overlook-
ing the viewpoint of those sev-
eral thousands who booed. Prom
our standpoint, it appeared that
the cheerleaders were falling down
on their job. In the past the cus-
tom has been to cheer an injured
player. Why were we not inform-
ed of the (^ange? No mention of
this was pmited in The Varsity,
nor was any announcement made
over an Idle publir address sys-
tem at the time.
Queen's cheered Oneschuck as
he lay on the field. Being ignor-
ant of the rule we were immedi-
ately incensed when our cheer-
leaders did nothing. We booed to
express our disapproval. Does
this imply poor sportsmanship?
If so, a large percentage of the
crowd were poor sports.
To say we behaved inexcusably
is wrong. Our excUse was ignor-
ance. This ignorance was due to
the ineficient publicity given Mr.
Masterson's request by the Blue
and White Society. Publicity is
their job. Tliey didn't do it.
The cheerleaders were not at
fault. They carried on in the
face of adversity, for which they
are to be commended. They are
doing a fine job.

Pictators
slow tempo
Editor, The Varsity:
Saturday's game bears ample
evidence that our Blue and White
Society warrants investigation.
Instead of co-ordinating and pro-
moting all-Varsity spirit this dic-
tatorial group has set itself over
and above rather than on student
level. This year they have con-
tinued their practice of reserv-
ing a choice bloc in the student
section from which they might
have the best possible view of
the game when they might bet-
ter serve their function by circu-
lating throughout the entire
Varsity cheering section.
Furthermore, the poor ad-
ministration of this society is ob-
served in the performance of the
cheer-leaders. They show abso-
lutely no sense of timing: that is,
they do not seize the right oppor-
tunity to lead an appropriate
cheer. And, as if the distraction
of a poorly-timed cheer were not
enough, we are relegated to a
pathetically slow tempo.
However, we hold the cheer-
leaders themselves blameless of
these charges as they are merely
foUowmg the miserable adminis-
tration of the Blue and White
Society.

expect to see something done for
him . . . the cheerleaders ignored
the crowd's ever increasing re-
quests for a cheer for Oneschuk.
So the "rude" Varsity support-
ers gave him a SPIRITED SPON-
TANEOUS UNLED cheer.
The natural result of the cheer-
leaders' indifference was a re-
ciprocal indifference on the part
of the students — a forcible re-
minder that a mistake had been
made. Each time the cheerlead-
ers failed to regain the confi-
dence of the crowd, an even bet-
ter cheer was given, again spon-
taneously. For this sin we are
castigated by an inept editorial
scribbler.
Everyone realizes there was no
personal emnity towards the
cheerleaders. They erred in try-
ing to ignore the" students, but
the blame for the resulting un-
pleasantness can be laid at the
doorstep of the Blue "and Wliite
Society, 100%.,
The next time this august body
of morons breaks a long observed
tradition, they might at least
condescend to tell us poor stu-
dents all about it beforehand.

Editor, The Varsity:
Fatheads of. the press. Ignor-
ance has reached a new high. Our
meticulous dally did appear on
Monday carrying a misfit of an
editorial, "A Poor Show," or was
it just another bombasted typo-
graphical error (a disease im-
fortunately quite communicable
among The Varsity staff). As
usual, The Varsity, in attempting
to get something down on paper,
printed a large editorial of super-
ficial nonsense. Of course we must
admit there was lots of imagina-
tion.
This, however, is quite k pro-
poupou. Our gripe is about the
tripe you tried to pawn off on
your indigent readers.

One Happy Morning by Louise
Riley, topp Clark. 1951, $3.00.
"One Happy Moment" ' is the
Gtory of Deborah Buchanan, a re-
pressed hbrarian from Montreal,
who flees to the Great Wide West
in order to escape from the influ-
ence of her strong-minded, club-
woman mother. She has had the
usual unhappy love-affair with the
usual married man, who promises
to marry her, but does nothing
about It. When after approximately
ten years it begins to dawn on her
that he has no intentions of doing
GO, she decides to make the break
from her possessive mother, and
her worthless lover at the same
time. She goes to a resort in the
Rockies named September Lake,
and there in the guise of a divorcee,
she tries to regain peace and self-
sufficiency. She meets a variety ol
people, such as the frankly seduc-
tive, yet warm-hearted proprietress
i.o£ the lodge "Vangie Roseberry",
(■tJie usual stormy adolescent, obvi-
ously in love with a young hand-
some geology professor; the Her-
mit, a man of some fame in artis-
tic circles, who has fled from it all
to find reality. Mrs. Horton, the
diamond in the rough, cook, and
Slim, the cowboy with aspirations
for higher things. Mrs. Nelson, the
wiother of Susan, the stormy petrel,
is the typical stuffy, domineering
mother and wife of America. Her
^eek husband Fred rebels, in the
<:ouiEe of events, and both gain
stature and happiness in the pro-
cess The two characters . who play
ine largest part in Deborah's com-
J"g-or-age are firstly, the afore-
fjentioned geology professor, who
JJ^uch to my surprise did not marry

Dook briefly, and appears
very unappetizing type of human-
ity. His wile has finally learned
of his continuous infidelities and
has decided to divorce him. He
magnanimously chases across the
continent to give Deborah the
privilege of becoming his wife. The
latter, having been eagerly encour-
aged and bolstered by her friends,
manages to refuse his generous of-
fer, much to his chagrin. He
promptly tries' to strike up an ac-
quaintance with the alluring
Vangie, but she after leading him
on in the approved fashion, lets
him know her opinion of him in
no uncertain terms. Deborah's
mother enters at the last, and de-
mands that she come back to
civilization. She is adequately por-
trayed as the "I've got so much to
do I don't know what to do" type
of clubwoman who tries to run the
community, and charity, and com-
pletely ignores her immediate fam-
Uy except as useful apepndages
for typing speeches, and volunteer-
ing for work at charitable func-
tions. ,
The finale of the story finds
Deborah having resisted the ef-
forts of her mother, to come back
to her responsibilities, and starting
lite anew in Vancouver.
Apparently Miss Riley has been
very successful in the juvenile
field and that her work in this
field was better. It is not that there
is anything wrong with the book;
there is just a refreshing lack of
originality and maturity m it. The
descriptions of the beauties of the
scenery, the futility of life and
philosophies of life are all very
laudable, but they also have a famt
ring ot familiarity about them. The
pseudo-sophistication of the plot
fails to ring true.
The structure of the book is
logical, and the language is ex-
cellent. One feels however, that is
somewhat Incongruous for ranch-
hands and hotel hostesses to speak
with the gramamtical purity and
pedantry ot a French text-book.
Perhaps I have been too severe
in my judgment, and no 'doubt
lovers of soap-operas will relish it
heartily. It has the modernity of all
unfinished end, and psychological
problems, and it is well-written, as
far as actual style goes, s» I |""
sure, that many people will find
It very enjoyable.

If you see a bright face and sombrero smiling up at you from a pii*
of pamphlets in the Iwokshops this week, don't start looking in the other
direction because you've already been to Mexico, or aren't interested in
travel literature. It just so liappens that the picture on the cover is very
misleading and what you are really looking at is a report by John Murray
Gibbon on Displaced Persons who have come to Canada in the past six or
seven years. New Colour For The Canadian Mosaic is only thirty pages
long and Gibbon's presentation is hardly what you might call colourful,
but we believe that the people dealt vfith in this pamphlet deserve more
attention from native-born Canadians than they have received so far,
and we are grateful to Mr. Gibbon and his publishers, McClelland &
Stewart, for taking a step in the right direction.
Since its organization in 1947. the International Refugee Organization
has been responsible for transplanting over a hundred thousand D.P.S
from Europe to Canada. A separate organization, the Canadian Christian
Council for Resettlement of Refugees, which is interested only in people
of German origm who would possibly be discriminated against in a
larger resettlement organization, has been responsible for bringing out
nearly twenty thousand Volksdeutsche, as these German-speaking people
are called. Jews, Germans, Latvians, Estonians, Lithuanians, Poles,
Ukrainians, Roumanians and Jugoslavians have all come to Canada in
large numbers under the auspices of thete two organizations.
To anyone interested In Canadian culture, the arrival and resettle-
ment of these people in Canada will be of unlimited interest. In Europe,
D.P.S are given a short course in Canadian History, and on tlieir arrival
in Canada are given lessons In Basic English. To offset this slight
Introduction to the Canadian way ot life they bring with them a
Emopean heritage which most of them will fail to assimUate to their
new home. In their own generation. Even during the lew years that they
have been here there have been precious few signs citlier on the side ol
Canadians or of the D.Ps to bridge the gap between the two cultures.
Your comfortably well-oft, middle-class Canadian feels that these people
must make their own way, and in a great many cases is afraid of the
professional competition that D.Ps might offer him. On the other hand,
a great many D.P.S are apalled by the Canadian's lack of interest in any
kind of cultural recreation and his relentless pursuit ot material comforts.
Canadians need to be reminded that these people have a great deal
to cive to Canada along the cultiu-al side — an aspect of Canadian hie
whose neglect the Massey Report has deplored. That the D.P.S mfluence
JaTalready been felt in this' respect is evident in the following report
of a performance by the Halifax Gotshalks Ballet, formed by '"<> .'■"•^^
Latvians. The CP. press report says; "History was "Wde 'his old

hopeless traffic jam and a capacity crowd went home clamouring or

in Christianity and History. Pro-
fessor Butterfield gave his concep-
tion ol the Christian's interpreta-
tion of history. Now, in History
and Human Relations he gives his
conception of the historians' pre-
sentation of history. These books
are complimentary. Both ap-
proach the "world of human re-
lations, whoch is the historians'
universe.'" In History and Human
Relations. Professor Butteifield
clarifies the principles by which
the historian must approach the
universe of human relations, be-
fore he may add a Christian inter-
pretation of what he finds.
To step out of one's own shoes
into the shoes of others— that is the
historian's purpose. The object of
his science is the human personal-
ity, because it is the "only thing
in the created world that really
matters." But the true historian
wllf recognize the universe with-
in each personaUty. And he will
recognize that his understanding is
limited by the walls of his own
personality. Therefore ills work-is
to open new windows upon an in-
finite vista which can never be
wiiolly seen. His method, then, is
relentless search for exact knowl-
edge. Only thus can the historian
fulfill his function of broadenhig
our understanding of human per-
sonality.
With burning clarity. Professor
Butterfield shows the dangers in
history when iU purpose is denied.
Because he Is human, the historian
Is found setting up false barriers
of -prejudice, distorting bis vision
of human relations. The urgency
of Butterfleld's work. Is rooted in
the fact that what we think about
people to a large extent determines
how we act toward them. There-
fore Butterfield sees in the right
use ol history, a challenge to undo
some of the harm that the wrong
use of history has done. It is a
challenge to the liistorlan to knock
down the walls of prejudice, to
look upon personality with sympa-
thy. Then he will be able to pity

More and more of us are be-
coming concerned with the fright-
ening fact the gigantic battle lor
power between Man and Machine,
is the real crisis of Twentieth Cen-
tury western civilizations. 'This
may sound like science-flvtion stuff
to many, but current theories on
the effect of mass media of com-
munications are on this line. Pro-
fessor McLuhan's The Mechanical
Bride went into this tendency en-
tertainingly. At the first Hart
House Library Evening last Thurs-
day Toronto Tely Book Editor
James Scott suggested that ma-
chine's coming conquest ol man
has been the concern of practical-
ly all American noveUsts on this
century. Although somewhat tenu-
ous, the theory has a sound basis.
Then on a much higher level.
Professor Harold Innls of the PoU-
tlcal Economy department has
been pursuing the theory that
communications and development
of civilizations run hand-in-hana.
All this Is to Introduce and per-
haps suggest the importance of a
Utile book. Television and Our
ChUdren. Written by Robert Lek-
is Shayon. a Saturday Review of
Literature, editor, this is a collec-
tion of articles originally ivritten
In ig.'iO tor The Christian Science
Monitor.
From the point ot view of TV s
effect on children, based on the
American experiment in commer-
cial television,. Shayon explores
the posslbUllles and dangers of the
newest method of mass communi-
cations. The Increasing triumph
of Machine over Man is shown in
the hypnotic effect that television
has over lU viewers. Shayon
quotes teenagers who see the bad
things about television programs
and charges: "They may be re-
pelled, appalled, offended — but
they are fascinated."
Included are the various theories
of child-study experts on televis-
ion's probable effect on cliildren,
their habits, attitudes and devel-
opment. Shayon does not attempt
to give a one-sided case: he admits
the impossible net that the com-
mercial entrepreneurs of Televis-
ion are in. They think in terms of
"will it sell the product?"
Shayon's solution then, is that
the parent listener mus activate
himself to doing 'something con-
structive about TV development
and improvement. He is concern-
ed "not with the complacent, un-
complaining maloiity.but with the
dissatisfied, rcDflllous minority".
Writing Individual letters to the
entrepeneurs is one of course. To
do this effectively, an accurate
knowledge of TV is necessary, as
well as ability to pudge, to critlclza
constructfvely as well as destruc-
tively.
This individual coui'se is coupl-
■ ed with anotlier, perhaps easier
one; to persuade children to
watch "desiioble" programs and
not "undesirable" ones, But this
all must come to a head in tlie or-
ganization of Listeners Councils,
of which there are many devoted
to the improvement of radio and
television. Shayon affirms that a
better pattern can be gotten with-
in the framework of commercial
operation.
We in Canada, of course, may
avoid some of the hazards of Mil-
ton Berle and Hopalong Cassidy
when the CBC experiment In TV
control comes soon. This approach
ot course, is based on the British
example, and like CBC radio
should at times give a gratifying
taste of some resistance to the
pressure of commercial mass ap-
peals to the lowest common de-
nominator of public Interest.
And Shayon* final thesis Is that

Defeat
Harrier Blues
Buffalo State won the annual
three-corner harrier meet with
Varsity and Niagara U. last Satur-
day at High. Park with a low score
of 32. Toronto edged Niagara for
second place as Herb Tilson came
through with a win, setting a
course record with a five-mile time
of 28 minutes, 15.5 seconds. State
placed men . in 3, 4. 7, 8 and 10
positions while Varsity runners
came in 1, 6, 11. 12 and 13. for a
total of 43. Niagara's 2, 5, 9, 14 and
17 place finishes gave them 47.
Tilson set a course record in last
year's meet at Niagara when he
sliced three full seconds off the
previous standard. The otlier To-
ronto men who finished were
Chuck Wortman in sixth place,
George McMuJlen, Murray Gaziuk.
and Bud McCurry, 11th, 12th and
13th respectively, and Bob Sheri-
dan 15th.
The Senior Intramural Harrier
was held right before the Intercol-
legiate, and it was taken by Vic's
freshman star Pal Johnston in the
Ume of 31:04. Gord Rintoul of UC
was 6'^- seconds behind for second
position. Third and fourth spots
went to McCurry (Dents) and
Sheridan (Vic) since their times in
the Intercoll. were better than
that of Meds' John Pj'ke, who
followed Rintoul. They were eli-
gible for the Senior Harrier al-
though they ran in the other meet,
so the five best times won.
Victoria continued its domina-
tion in harrier as they walked off
with the tea mchampionsliip. Their
winning team, besides Johnston and
Sheridan, was composed of Banks
(6), Bird (7), Angus (9), and Har-
ris (10th).
McGill Gains Third Win
Trounce Mustangs 26-0
By their 26-0 performance
against the Mustangs in Montreal
last Saturday afternoon, the Mc-
Gill Redmen proved that their de-
feat of the Metrasmen the week-
end before was far from an acci-
dent. In fact they left University
of Western Ontario fans feeling
that their team was something
more than fortunate in not ab-
sorbing a worse defeat in the first
game against the Redmen.
The McGill line was the star of
the game. It hald the Mustang of-
fensive to only 26 yards gained
rushing, and opened holes in the
Mustang front wall that allowed
McGill backs to gain a total of
285 yards along the ground. .The
Redmen were also better in the
air. completing 5 out of 16 passes
as compared with a record of 4
In 19 for the Metrasmen.
' Geoff Grain, who led the McGill
scoring with 2 majors, opened the
scoring for the Redmen in the
first quarter when he gathered in
a pass from Robillard in the end
zone ofter a series of ground plays
and brought the ball up to the
Western 25 yard line.
' McGill scored twice in the sec-
ond quarter, the first coming on
a 30 yard run by Crain for a hand-
off. A few moments later, a Mus-
tang fumble by O'Hara was re-
covered by the Redmen on the
Westei-n 1 yard line and Findlay
carried over. McGill scored its
final major in the fourth quarter
when Haskell Blauer scored from
10 yards out.
Dave Tomlinson converted all
four of McGill's touchdowns, and
Bertrand rouged Bob Smith of the
Mustangs for the remaining point.
The win was a sweet one for the
Redmen who h^ve been smarting
ever since their defeat by the Mus-
tangs in Montreal for the Intercol-
legiate title last season. It also
threw a new light on the present
Intercollegiate picture. McGill
now have undisputed possession of
second spot in the Intercollegiate
standings, trailing the Varsity
Blues by only two points. The per-
formance of the McGill line
against the Mustangs has made
football enthusiasts look with
greater anticipation toward the
final game of the schedule to be
played between the Blues and the
Redmen in Toronto on November
10.
Junior Medicoes Trounced
Dents Register 34-1 Victor^
Sportswoman
The women's softball play-offs
got underway at Trinity field yes-
terday when DC whipped St. Hilda's
II 13-5. The Red and White got
away to a good start in the first,
inning when they batted in 11 runs,
and held the Samts to only two
runs in the last half of the session.
After the 'first inning the game
was very close, with the UC girls
getting two in the second and the
Trinity team retaliating with three
in the third. Mary Craw was a
standout for the UC'ers with her
careful pitching and her three run
homer in the first. Heather Chip-
man aded a two run homer for the
winnfers in the second.
In the other contest, Saint
Hilda's fii-sts overpowered Vic II's
15-2, in four innings. The Saints
built up an eight run lead before
the Vicsters hit the scoresheet in
the bottom of the third. The Scar-
let and Gold came through with
some inspired hitting but an error
by one of the runners kept their
score down to two. The Trinity gurls
came back strong in tlie fourth
plating seven runs to put the game
on ice. Donna Paisley and Marg
Martin were outstanding for the
winners while Joan Gore turned in
a good performance in a losing
cause.
The Dentists rolled home without much competition ]
the Med's 11 team yesterday afternoon. If you like to Watc?l
a team look good in every department while the other stam^l
around looking as if they were waiting for a streetcar, it ^^^1
a good game. The final score was 34-1 for Dents. The M^^l
one point came when the Dent's fumbled behind their Ij,,:!
on a kick and were ruged. That was in the fourth quartefl
Dents wore down an began to look bad for a while, and i\A
Med's team managed, somehow to get a point out of it.
The game opened up right from
the kick-off in the first quarter.
Med's kicked off and the Dent's
ran the ball back to their own 45.
They lined up and on the team
back they fired a quick pass good
for 10 yards. And on the next play
Gilbert threw a 25 yd. pass to Con-
ner. Lefebre went around the end
for 15, and a buck through tlie cen-
tre for the T.D. Hori made the
convert good. Dent's kicked and the
Medmen fumbled and Dent's re-
covered on the Med's 10 yd. line.
Dent's plunged through tackle to
the one yd. line, and then Gilbert
sneaked the ball over on the next
play. Hori made the convert good
without any trouble.
That was the end of that quar-
ter, and aside from the score of
12-0 the Dentists hinted that it
was going to be a stroll through
the park.
Next quarter the Dent's team
kicked to Med's who ran the ball
back to their own 20. and on the
down they fumbled the ball. Dent's

He Scores
By DAVID BOTENBERG
Now that the Intercollegiate football schedule is two-
thirds over it is time to take a look at the standings and con-
sider the positions o£ the other three teams in the loop.
Starting from the bottom and working up, we find
Queen's who have lost four straight, but their remaining
games will affect the playoff chances of the other clubs. The
Gaels who played at the Bloor Bowl last weekend were a
greatly improved team over the one at Richardson Stadium
the week before. The Kingston crew came out fighting,
scored the first point, and almost upset the highly rated
locals. If they can continue this spirited playing they should
score an upset in at least one of their two final games.
The defending champion Mustangs are now in third
place, and after their double loss to McGill, their playoff
hopes have been reduced to a great many "ifs". If the UWO
crew beats the Blues next week while the Redmen lose to
Queen's, and if Western bea'ts the Gaels the following week
while Varsity beats McGill, then the Mustangs will end up in
a second place tie with McGill, but will be awarded a playoff
with Toronto as they will have beaten the Brues while the
Redmen, if these conditions are fulfilled, will not have. But
this is all speculation, for if the Redmen win one or the Mus-
tangs lose one. Western will be left in third place out of the
running, and from where we sit, it seems that Johnny Met'
ras can start to pack up the silverware right now.
The McGill crew are the only ones with a real chance
to beat out the Blues for the Yates Cup. After dropping the
opener to Varsity, Obeck's crew have won three straight, in-
cluding a convincing 26-0 victory over the Metrasmen last
weekend. If the Redmen beat the Blues at the Stadium a
week from Saturday, they get a playoff no matter what hap-
pens this week and McGill must win this one too in order to
take home the honors.
Badminton Squad
Trials Tomorrow
The University of Toronto will
go in for badminton in a big way
this year, the Athletic Association
announced yesterday. A team will
be entered in the Toronto and Dis-
trict baijminton league this year
and from this squad the players
for the Intercollegiate meet will be
chosen.
Last year was the first in which
badminton was recognized as an
Intercollegiate sport. The Blues
were entered in the Western sec-
tion of the intercoll loop and came
first in a meet against Western,
OAC. McMaster and Waterloo Col-
lege. As .winners of this evenUthe
Varsity birdmen went to McGill
but lost out to the Redmen.
Neil Hamilton and Joim Nasih,
who were one. two on last year's
squad will be back again this sea-
son, but they will be unable to
compete in the Toronto and Dis-
trict league as it is a "B" loop and
they are rated as "A" players, and
therefore the city team will be
composed of all new men.
h\ order to find the students at
the University capable of holding
down a post on his team, the bad-
minton club is having an elimina-
tion tournament at the Drill Hall
tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m. Any-
one interested should phone Ed
The above picture shows Dents' quarterback Doug Gilbert going o^^'
the Meds* goal-line on a quarter sneak for the Red and Blue's
second touchdown in the first qaarter. The Meds* line is holding back
its opposition and seems to have stopped everyone but the ball carrier,
who got right through.
Gilbert led his team as the Dentistry squad piled ap the biggest
score of the Interfacolty season. The Dents got 34 points on six
majors, three converts and a single. The Medsmen got their idnglB
when the Dentistry squad fumbled behind their goal-line*

enterf^ sports figure is to be immortalized in celluloid, it seems there
that j^^yg to be something really bad happen to him. Nobody makes
* vie about Ty Cobb, or even Jack Dempsey. Not recently anyway.
» current sports biography is JIM THORPE: ALL-AMERICAN
the university). The more correct title should perhaps be BURT
NCASTER: ALL-AMERICAN. But this film, made by the same
J. Brothers who made the Mister Paul Muni epics, is an interest-
^^'^mixture of sports and entertainment. Plus, it would seem, some
Sud biography.
jiM THORPE: ALL-AMERICAN is an absorbing and enjoyable
An example of the new Hollywood compromise between enter-
■ inent and a serious message, this biography does an excellent job.
^"ri who is to say that the method of compromise, for example GO
roR BROKE, is not th& most effective? If a thing must be said
rsuasively, to a mass group, a qualified elaboration of the American
?f p^m would be taken in by those who would walk out of A STREET-
CAR NAMED DESIRE.
What makes JIM THORPE seem an honest attempt at biography is'
that it is hard to pin down exactly what the Message is. That is, there
I no one Message, but pertinent comments on the Indian problem,
till quite valid, on miscegenation, and on the age-old argument about
' fmateurlsm (we think of Avery Brundage) are presented.
Thorpe's story is of tremendous athletic achievement, of great
triumph and deep bitterness. The breakdown of a proud, stubborn
and simple man is portrayed without the usual complete sympathy so
often awarded by Hollywood writers.
And the most excituig thing about this Michael Curtiz movie is
that the ups and downs of Thorpe's career are depicted on and not off
the athletic field. To do this effectively, Burt Lancaster, probably the
onlv Hollywood star who could convincingly portray an all-around
athlete plays Thorpe with intensity. Lancaster flashes across ,the
screen,' in the Stockholm Olympic pentathalon and decathalon,- playing
football for the Carlisle Indians, baseball, etc. This is like seeing the
■hands of a movie pianist, only more so.
As ALL MY SONS and THE KILLERS proved, not only has
Lancaster much muscle, he has acting ability. There .is not too much
acting needed in THORPE, but the brooding, bony face of Lancaster
Snakes you feel at times that this could be Thorpe himself.
The Hollywood grandiose touch naturally results in athlete-heroes
becoming supermen. 'At other times, this faculty has been annoying,
but not in JIM THORPE. The legend and the records show that this
Oklahoma Indian was a kind of superman himself.
Thorpe's breakdown after the death of the young son is convincing
but not as exciting as the first half of the film when he is the nation's
and Carlisle's darling. The script sinks a few times to soap opera
quality, but is offset by happy scenes like the wordless contest between
Lancaster and rival Steve Cochran on the campus athletic field for the
favor of heroine Phyllis Thaxter.
Charles Bickford is superlative as mentor and friend, Pop Warner.
Miss Thaxter is a pallid sort anyway, and seems mismatched from
the start, but she is sweet-girlish in a 1920-ish way.
With JIM THOEPE is a Bugs Bunny cartoon, HIS HARE-RAISING
TALE, which unlike the usual Bugs effort also has a fine punchUne,
and introduces a welcome newcomer, a pop-eyed nephew of the
smart-alec rabbit.

A Tired Gimmick
The progress of our much-touted civilization has now
arrived at the point where nearly every week is a special
Week, dedicated to the solemn admiration (and financial
support) of some facet of North American life.
We now have a Canadian National Institute for the
Blind Week, a Health Week, an Education Week — even a
National Cat Week. Like all good advertising gimmicks, this
one gets tired easily. Effective within its Imits it certainly
is. But we would like it to leave us a little space in between
when we can think our own private thoughts.
There are fifty-two weeks in the year. This is an unfor-
tunate circumstance but a fact. We would like to take the li-
berty of performing a facial contortion. We would like to
curl our lip and put tongue in cheek. This done, we would
like to suggest that the obsolete seven-day week be replaced
by a five-day week, in order that there may more weeks in
the year to set aside for Favorite Causes.
Limited as we are, as to the number of weeks at our
disposal, technicalities are bound to become embarrassing at
times. This week the worst has happened. October 27 to No-
vember 3 has been set aside as Canadian Book Week. It has
been set aside every bit as forcefully as National Radio
Week. What to do ? Can the Twentieth Century mind devote
itself to tw,^ causes in one and the same week?
We suggest that the week of November 4 to 11 be set
aside as National Week Week. Its aim will be to give individ-
uals across the continent a chance to sit back and think about
the institution of the National Week, hbw it can best be util-
ized, what Causes are worthy of a National Week, and wheth-
er the National Week device is so worn out as to warrant dis-
continuing it.
We predict that one of the outcomes of National Week
Week will be the appointment of an International Week Co-
ordination Committee. Its purpose will be the prevention of
such blunders as the one under whose effects we are strain-
ing at present— the coinciding of two National Weeks.
Short of this, the only effect will be chaos.
Its cure? The abolition of the week.
There Is little doubt that most of us would like
to see the continuance of intercollegiate com.
petition in footbaU and basketball. The excite-
ment, the loyalties, and the needed escape from
four dark walls and a ceiling, which the game
itself provides; the cheering and the cheerleaders,
the camaraderie of the away weekends; the bands,
the bottles, the blondes ... the whole spectacle is
in itself a part of our way of life.
The men who play the eames are students like
everyone eke. must pass their exams like every-
one . else or they do not play football. As with
students in other heavy extra-curricular activities,
it is almost impossible for intercollegiate athletes
to hold academic scholarships. This is more true
of these activities than it is of most because a
footbaU player cannot take a night or two off to
get ahead on his studies, as can a debater or a
campus politician. The competitive element is too
high— and lierhaps that is all to the good. A large
proportion of college football players have become
successes in the business world as 'a result of the
competitive ■ drive developed in athletics.
If^the athletes contribute in a large way to col-
lege lite, and need financial support to stay in
college, it seems only reasonable that they should
receive it. Chaiges of professionalism are entiie-
ly pointless; a subsidized college athlete is no
more a .professional athlete than an academic
scholarship holder is a professional student. The
former usually makes a broader contribution to
university life than the latter because he is .en-
couraged to be a good student too, and must puss
his exams, whereas the latter is not required to
be an athlete, and usually hasn't time for much
else besides if he wishes to keep his scholarship.
I would personally be in favour of athletic sub-
sidies simply because of my acquaintance with
athletes in both Amerrcan and Canadian univer-
sities who -would not be able to go to university
had they not received this help. A football or bas-
ketball player can use his ability in athletics to
provide himself with an education, and conse-
quently a career which would otherwise be only a
vision.
Colleges whose prestige and financial position
have been established by famous football or bas-
ketball teams have been able to raise or maintain
high academic standards. Some have in this way
become ranking universities. Gate receipts have
enabled them to afford higher paid staff and
facilities, and the name itself serves to attract
students. This is not a very secui'e position tor a
university to be in, since It would seem that it the
teams failed to win, or got involved In som»
dal, the whole university would go into declin»
However, it cannot be denied that colleges line
these are providing thousands of student^
good educations which many of them would
otherwise be able to obtain.
These so-called athletic scliolarsbips, which
•"oitt
to result almost inevitably when sport bee,
business too, are of course not taken out ot
funds of the universities. They don't have to
Usually alumni organizations provide a fund , '
the purpose. In the Western Conference, ther "
another fund as well which is taken out of r
program sale at the games. This seems to me
be better than letting in outside Influences \^
booster clubs, which sometimes gain virtual c
trol of a university's athletic department, an/"'
best makes life very unhappy for losing coaches"
Unfortunately, alumni interference is not th
worst that can happen to a college if atbieti '
and the rah-rah spirit is the main reason for st"
dents' being there, or it busy ticltet wickets are th'
authorities' main concern. A. large number .
American universities have degraded themsel,"'
academically with physical education course'
featuring twenty hours a week of sports ana oni
hour of academics, or w4th courses in Canasta fi
casting, and other aspects of higher learnin,'
These are extreme cases, but they do exist
pecially in the deep south and the far west. W|,jjj
the f-Siancial expediency of catering to people ji,,
want to be college boys or guls but not univeisii,
students may be just as responsible for these mon.
stroslties as football players on a free ride to a
B.A., football was in many cases the original reason
for lowering the standards.
Instead ot compromising the acade.-nic standani!
of the university duectly, It can ije done indintl.
ly by doctoring the marks of players to give thta
the standing requiied by the league. This is an
even greater offence than the other, stace as sell
as lowering the academic standards by encoura».
ing poor students, it often allows a person who has
no right to be at university and will probably
gain little benefit from being there, to take Iht
place ot a bona fide student. Such a case came
to light this year at William and Mary Univer-
sity in Virginia. Instances of this sort are larelt
heard of, but are easy to conceal.
It Is possible that the whole matter in the Uiiil-
ed States may have to be covered bv a Federal
law regulating subsidization of athletes and ath-
letics. However, it would be much better for aU
concerned it such regulation could be left to the
heads of the universities themselves. It is up to
them whether academic standards are to be coi-
rapted or maintained, whether a sensible sy.!tem
ot athletic scholarships is to be devised or whether
under-the-table handouts are to continue. Even in
the wildest moments ot football frenzy few
would censure a university president for upholding
the integrity of the university.
OUR READERS WRITE
Picture Window College
Doors
Complaints around the University once in a while have
effcc-ts. Once upon a time, The Varsity printed a story to the
effect that the door of Hart Housfe was impossibly heavy.
The story even insinuated that the weight of the door had
been the direct cause of a mythical student's death. That
day. the door of Hart House was loosened.
This fall, Hart House frequenters found the door again
too heavy for the human touch. The rare student carryino-
an armful of books suffered especially. Soon the wheels were
set in motion to make the door open more easily. It does!
Now when it is given a healthy push it swings back, hits the
wall, and smacks the unsuspecting on whatever poi:tion of
the anatomy happens to be nearest.
Under the category of the sticky and heavy also comes
the Southeast door of University College. Co-eds have been
seen waiting at the door until a male of the species comes
along to apply his superior strength. It is a regrettable situa-
tion..
Editor, The Varsity
It is our unanimous opinion
that the University of Toronto
is not providing what a univer-
■ £ity should provide and ought
to be annexed to the United
^ States immediately. As the Uni-
versity of Northern New York,
we could have:
1. A subsidized football
team and courses which are
not unreasonably difficult
for it. i-uch as knitting, or
needlework, so that the play-
ers could do their home-
work while warming the
bench.
2. Professors like the ones
we see in the American
movies, i.e., unmarried, un-
inhibited and under thirty.
3. As part of the United
States, a bigger voice in the
■JNO, and perhaps even a
Jniversity representative on
-he cultural committee.
4. All, undesirable males
)n the campus drafted for
active service in Korea.
5. Slacks worn tq classes
in winter and, shorts in the
sucnmer.
6. A vote on the personal-
ities and teaching ability of
oiiv professors.
7. A Student Union (all
American universities have
them) complete with cock-
tail bars to replace our ob-
scure dives.
8. Instead of outdated
architecture, modem alu-
minium and picture win-
dows; instead of gargoyles
to frighten us, a statue of
Benjamin Franjchn to in-
spire us.
In short, we^ yearn to be a
drop in the fountain and a
.source of North American
culture.

Sepflabav
Not
Just Junk
Editor, The Varsity:
In Monday's Varsity I read a
letter to the Editor by a young
Vic student who calls himself
Walt Stewart. I cannot express
to you my concern over this
matter. Is not/ this university a
Christian univer.sity and are we
not church-going, law-abiding
citizens? Thrit such a man as
this Walt Stewart should be
allowed on the campus and
allowed to speak, shows such a
public apathy that it sickens
me. This mon who ha-; organized
a society called theSEPFLABAV
is a discredit to Vic and the
university as a whole. Good
God, this man is toying with
the most sacred things in life.
My anger at him is only slightly
more heated than my anger at
the editors of The Varsity for

the formation of the Union.
In a letter to the secretary of
International Affairs of the Brazil
Student ■ organization, copies of

and university newspapers across
the country. Wax, on tjfehalf of
NPCUS asked if sufficient time had
been allowed to properly organize
the student unions in South Am-
erica before attempting a full scale
Inter- American Confeaence. Wax
also asked whether it would not
be wiser to organize a strong South
American student organization first
and leave a -full Pan-American
Union imtil later in th£ year.
Because of finances and the early
time of the conference NPCUS will
not send an official delegate to the
conference. However lAC is arrang-
ing- with Canadian University gra-
duates, who are working in Brazil
at the present time, to act as an
official observers at the conference.
A telegrajn was also dispatclied
congratulating the Brazil union on
its efforts and expressing the sup-

The University of Toronto De-

run by SPS to be held next Thurs-
day afternoon on the motion, "Re-
solved that the University of To-
ronto needs a Student Union as
soon as possible." Speaking for tha
affirmative are Cliff Wilson, IV

Groot, rv SPS. Dave Rose and Al
Strauss, both IV UC, will oppose
the motion.
Chuck i.i. Hanley, III UC. Chair-
man of the UTDU. said tliis is the
first of a series of invitation debates
to be held in each of the colleges
and faculties to stimulate univer-
sity-wide and co-educational de-
bating. The program for 1951 will
also include proposed tours to Bos-
ton, Chicago and the Eastern Cana-
dian Universities in co-operatiou
with the Intercollegiate Debating
Union. He said that tour Scottisii
universities are sending teams to
Canada in January to visit McGilt,
Queen's. Western and Toronto.
Preliminary trials among these four
universities will decide which uni-
versity will compete for the Cham-
pionship Trophy between Canada
and Scotland.
The debate to follow the one at
SPS next week is to be held - in

Prizes of one tin of cat food will
be given for the cutest and most

Mr. All Tayeb of Karachi, Pakis
tan will outline the problem of
admission of Communist China to
the United Nations at a meeting of
the United Nations Club In Wymil-
wood Thursday. The meeting will
tie a Joint one held by the Interna-
tional Students Organization and
the UJi. Club. A social hour start-
ing at 3:45 will be followed by the
regular meeting at 4:45.
The urgent and thorny problem
of the admission of Communist
China Is the current topic of U.N.
Club discussion groups which will
contmue throughout November in
preparation for the model Secur-
ity Coimcil meeting on December
6. On that date students elected by
the eleven study gi-oups will pre-
sent the view of their respective
countries In the Security Council.
After two meetings the member-
ship of the UJf. Club is over 50.
The majority of members are i
Canadian students. A special invi- I
tation is therefore extended to stu-
dents of other countries at present
attending the University of To-
ronto to Join t^e club. In this way
a true understanding of the point
of view held by each of the coun-
tries studied will be more easily
obtained.
Mr. Ali Tayed was bom and lived
In India where he attended th«
Moslem University All Garh,
graduating with both BA 'and MA
degrees. Following the partition of
India Mr. Tayeb moved to Kar-
achi Pakistan. Last year he cam«

the need for recruits for the min-

standing.
Social workers with definite
training are needed to raise the
standard ot living, and there Is
also a great need for doctors, es-
pecially in thinly-populated »reas.
he said. Bishop Wright also talk-
ed ot the work of teaching in the
Indian schools. He stressed the
fact that culture of all kinds is
lacking in Northern Ontario, part-
ly because ot the newness of the
mining communities, and because
so much o! the wealth of the min-
ing and paper industries drains
away to Toronto.
The Bishop's diocese of Algoma
extends from North Bay to the
lakehead and from Muskoka to
Krrkland Lake. It covers about
70 thousand square miles. This
compels him to spend about half
ot his time travelling from place to

churches in this diocese, but even
in some cases one clergyman cov-
ers as many as 10 of them.

EAC To Rehash
Soviet Exchange
Immediate discussion ol the pro-
posed Russian and Canadian stu-
dent exchange will be instituted by
the representatives of the Exteraal
Activities Commission In their
school or faculty organizations.
This was the result of a motion
passed at the meeting of the Exter-
nal Affairs Commission last night
in the Mining Building Board
Room.
Reports of the stand adopted on
this issue by the colleges and fac-
ulties will be presented at a meet-
ing of the EAC in four weeks. On
the basis of these repoi-ts EAC will
take a stand to be presented to the
National Federation ol Canadian
University Students.
The motion was presented by
Peter Alley, IV Trinity, vice-chair-
man in charge of International
Student Service on this campus.
It was the result of a stand adopt-
ed on the exchange visit of Rus-
sian students at the recent BS
conference at McMaster Univer-
sity.
Three alternatives were present-
ed to the meeting by Alley. Eith-
er EAC press for a reversal of the
NFCUS policy by asking that the
Russian student delegation be in-
vited to come to Canada this year,
or go on record they do not favour
such an exchange at all. The third
alternative is that the delegates to
the next NFCUS conference be in-
structed to issue an invitation next
year.
In order to put the NFCUS stand
adopted at the last NFCUS confer-
ence in London. Ontario in Sep-
tember squarely before the stu-
dents on the campus, a directive
was issued the publicity commit-
tee to prepare a statement on the
history of the invitation issue and
the reasons for the stand adopted
at the NFCUS conference for pub-
lication In The Varsity.
Alley also told the EAC that no
chairman had yet been found to
take charge of the proposed stu-
dent relief campaign. Five hun-
dred already have been approach-
ed without success, he said.
Because no chairman has yet
been found, no report has been
presented to the Commission on
the type and organization of the
campaign suggested for this year.
Discussion about the importance
of getting the campaign organiz-
ed and underway as soon as pos-
sible ensued. A motion was final-
ly adopted mandating the chair-
man and two vice-presidents of
EAC meet with the provisionary
campaign committee and report to
the next meetUig of the EAC on
a suggested type ot campaign. A
definite decislcm will be made at
that time.

Editor, The Varsity:
The reluctance of the Campus
Tories to participate in the cam-
pus mock parliament elections is
political cowardice. There are two
possible reasons: ,(a) They are
properly afraid of losing; (b) The
Macdonald-Cartier club on its
present exclusive basis Is Incap-
able of fighting a proper cam-
paign. ^
If the campus Tones are to be

baleon^ viewpoint
By DAVE PEDDIE
When I saw Tennessee Williams' A STREETCAR NAMED
almost two years ago at the Royal Alex, I found it an extremely ^
comment on our society and times. Obviously the author wanted to
lorcefuUy as he could that the 20tli century stinlis. In this 31(5^"'
succeeded.
He used old Aristotle's theory of catharsis— the play must liny,
the castor-oil for the pity and terror that it stimulates' in the amji
— and our feelings were completely in Mr. WUhams', and the
bands. We were compelled to sympathize with Blanche Dubois ajj'
Kowalslds, and we were shoolied and horrified by their taehavlouj, J
the play was over we had lived through a nightmare with th(^
aslted righteously, "why should this be?" However this effect soo,,,
off and one was still able to maintain that it was not either ,
tragedy, nor a great drama.
The movie of the same name now playing at ihc 'Victoria only „
to heighten this opinion, for the camera close-ups show the empd,
the play that had a misty look from the second balcony of thj
Alex, Nor is the acting as good In the movie, and after having stt^
can only aslt what aU the fuss has been about on Broadway ana lo,
circles?
The play at least was tight— i^ueeied Into two shabby rooms,
had to come out, came out hard and taut, with no excuses. The mon
spread it thin; weakened it; tried to malse it more genteel, and th,
tor-oil has turned to milk.
When Uta Hagen played it here Blanche was a woman who hij
fered misfortune. She had become hardened and she didn't want to fc,
Stanley Kowalskl was just an ignorant "Polack" who was disturbs,
something he didn't understand. In his attempt to free hhnself tron
burden of Blanche, he brought about her mental collapse. Tliis ,(
fairly simple story tol dwlth great force.
Vivien Leigh and Marlon Brando in the flhn do not have thtirJ
squarely on the ground. Miss Leigh acts very capably the part 01, J
delicate lady, but this is only what she wants others to think of haj
her whole character. Blanche is Just not that dreamy and — '
southern.
Por Mr. Brando little good can be said. If he Is a stupid t«u!b,li
the origmal Neanderthal Man. Anyone can break dishes and tall
a Kooklyn accent. There appears Uttle reason for his picktag on B
— he never seems really driven to anger. He is trying to play as
he were a small boy, when he is supposed to be a grown man, a
voice never varies throughout the entire film. He has nice solt (salj
.those interested, but that is hardly Important to Stanley KowaUki.
A really excellent performance was given by Kim Hunter as Stil
Blanche's sister. She was completely consistent with the play as ml<|
and she never let on that she was acting, as the "stars" did.
The basic "fault -seems to be the idea that A STREETPCAK NA;!^
iDESIBE is lyrical and s'lighUy romantic instead of harsh. There 1: .
call for nice tinkly music, and the two rooms though dark should »1
small. Surely the camera doesn't have to make them seem so brcexi
Even as a social comment the play and movie have nothing 10 1 .

by a reasonably comely senior coed of probably better than

.■Is that so?" we challenged. *'Just stop right there. Look at y^ur-
hf or any other girls for that matter. You start off toy wiggling, squeez-
» and squirming into the straight- jacket's first cousin. Then you strap

W' ^i,oes — high heels which curve your arches every which way,
Arrow petite block areas which pinch and condense your toes, open

l„e walker, and the ability to endure pain of a contortionist to wear
It, must be a relief to put on loafers or saddle shoes. No, honey-
vou can't tell me you girls dress as comfortably as we men do."
"How do you know about these things?" she looked us right in the
e-
"I've got a sister."
The prosecution rested to catch its breath.
Her eyes were flashing now. "What about in the summer when boys
fere hot trousers that make their legs sweat, and we can go stockingless?'
"Hardly an adequate comparison when one talks about comfort. You
pil wear your girdles, etcetera. The only pressure from clothes we feel
Urom our belts, and then we adjust them accordingly. Perhaps garters
Tstarchy collars, too. if you want to really scrape the barrel. But these

"Well, boys don't like girls with tummies," now she was strictly on-
e defensive. "It's easier to wear a girdle than to hold your stomach in,
tilas don't like girls who arMi't neat and well-figured. It's you men —
u make us dress this way!"
It was at this point that we had paused. She lodced up from her
Iffee now. She wasn't pouting any longer. In fact, she was breaking out
. bfg grin upon discovering she had admitted something she did not in-

"Don't get me wrong, dear light-of-my-life," we explained. "I don't

"Okay, I get tbe point,'* she was demure again. "Well, you're the

5 Lectures
To Instruct
Lost Frosh
A series of lectures organized
by the University Health Service
will begin on Thursday, Nov. 1
with a lecture by Warden Igna-
tieff. of Hart House. He wiU be
talking od, "The University and
the Community."
He says, "The student's time is
so highly organized both in class
and out that the University
might add to his confusion rather
than clear his thoughts. He has
pressures and pulls from both
timetable and student groups."
Mr. Ignatieff's talk will discuss
these things with special empha-
sis on the extra-curricular phase of
the student's life.
All the lectures, which take
place once a month, start at eight
o'clock and will be held in the lec-
ture hall of the Toronto Psychiat-
ric Hospital, Surrey Place. They
used to be held in the largest room
of the Physics Building, but a
more compact group will be pos-
sible by having it in the smaller
room in the Hospital. Another ad-
vantage of having them there -is
that refreshments can be served.
Each of the speakers will talk for
approximately forty minutes. Then
the meeting will be thrown open
to discussion for as long as any-
one remains, within limits, of
course.
The pui-pose of the series of five
lectures is to help students who
come to the University without
knowing exactly what they are
here for. This assistance helps
tbe min approaching studying and
other activities in getting along in
the group. It will also give in-
formation on University activities
and get them into the swing of
things in the first few months in-
stead of the last year. It is de-
signed to partly take the place of
an orientation program for first
year students which is lacking
still although It has been consider-
ed.
In the four years during which
similar lectures have been given,
many people have expressed their
appreciation of the good they have
received from them. The talks
are also interesting to many older
students and doctors who attend
them. The speakers are experts
in their fields and recommended
highly by the Health Service.
DRYDEN FIRST SPEAKER
IN H. H. CHAPEL SERIES
The Secretary of the Young
Liberal Association, Mr. Gordon
G. Dryden, will be the first in a
series of speakers to talk on "The
Christian and This Election," in
a Hart House Chapel series.
This Is a semi-annual chapel
series that is run by the Hart
House Chapel, and which is held
in connection with any pertinent
issues at stake. There will be
speakers from all the other parties
to make the series complete.
The other speakers will be. In
order, A. A. . McCleod for the
ULP, Charles Millard for the
CCP, and possibly Dana Porter for
the Progressive Conservatives.
The meeting will be held today
in the Debates Room of Hart
House from 1.30 till 2.00 p.m.

Last Minute Single Poini
Wins For Scarlet And Gok
By BRUCE NORTH
Sportswomai
S J);
In the most sensation&l interfaculty football game to date thi^ season the
Scarlet and Gold edged out a fighting Engineer squad 13-12. It was a spine tingler
down to the last minute although a Victoria touchdown which was called back becaus™**
holding might have broken up the game as early as the first half. , ^
It was the Vic line that made the bulled his way off left tackle for a
difference. They cut the Skulemen
down with beautiful blooking which
enabled Goodfellow, Frazor and
Bond to tear off long gains along
the ground. When he realized in the
first half that he couldn't go
through the Vic line. Skule quarter-
back Lewis switched to passes and
it was this pitching arm that al-
most upset Victoria.
Victoria drew the' first blood in
the second , quarter when they
marched .fi-om their own 40 in 6
plays for a touchdown. Atkin and
GoodfeDow did the ball carrying,
Atkin going for 40 yards in two
plays. It was Goodfellow who took a
pitchout from. Lodge and went five
yaixis tiround right end for the
major. Williams converted.
Victoria hit back fast again when

Fourth Quarter Touchdowns
Give Trinity important Win
By FRANK QUINLAN
Trinity College's Intramural footballers took a virtual stranglehold on first place in
Group 2 as they downed St. Mike's yesterday by a score of 11-1. The Red and Black needs
to win only one of its remaining three games to tie for the top spot and two out of three to
win it, and in both cases Forestry and St. Mike's must go through the remainder of their
Bchedule undefeated.
^ Up to the fourth quarter the
game had been extremely close
with St. Mike's clinging to a one-
point lead. But two Double Blue
fumbles led to one Trinity major,
and the Buttery boys struck again
to score another TD against the
stunned Mikemen to sew up the
game and probably the play-off
spot.
The first half was largely un-
eventful as the game early re-
solved itself into' a two plays and
kick routine that lasted until late
in the second quarter.
The third qsarter saw St. Mike's
take a narrow lead on O'Heany's
single. After the Double Blue had
taken possession of the ball on
Trinity's 45, little Jimmy Coghlan
toddled through the line twice for
a first down. Two plays later
CHeany booted a long one out of
bounds behind Trinity's line for
a point.
The Red and Black took full ad-
vantage of two St. Mike's bobbles
in the first quarter to pull out in
front. Fisher's kick was muffed
on the Irish 3 and Trinity took
over. After a line buck was stop-
ped and a pass fell incomplete in
tlie end zone, Thomas drove off
tackle and stumbled over the
goal line for the TD. Andison's at-
tempted convert was blocked to
make the score 5-1.
The winners struck again with
the speed and suddenness of a
thunderbolt. When St. Mike's
fumbled the kick-off Gray scooped
up the pigskin and raced to the
Double Blue 25. On the next play
Andison hit Thompson with a nice
pass and he went over standing
up. The convert was good to give
the Tea-sippers an ll-l bulge.
The Mikemen threw several
desperation passes in an ef-
fort to get back into the game but
it was a little too late. The game
ended with Trinity parked on St.
Mike's 20r
Andison's clever quaiierbacklng
was a major factor in the Red
and Black's win, as was Thomas'
running and Fisher's kicking. The
two lines were fairly even on the
play with Driscoll of St. Mike's
especially standing out as he set
more than one Trinity back on
his pants. The Mikemen were
minus first string backfielders
Miller and Russel, who are out
with ihiurles. but O'Heany. Mc-
Donald, and Coghlan came through
with good games.
By MAL CRAWPORO
Got back from a busman's holiday to Ann Arbor and
Detroit the other night, where we shivered through two of
the finest football games we ever saw. We had the privilege
of watching the Michigan-Minnesota homecoming game from
the Michigan bench, and the next day shared a windy roost
.with the Brigg's Stadium pigeons as the Chicago Bears
edged the Detroit Lions 28-23 on the passing arm of un-
heralded Steve Romanik, filling in for injured Johnny Lu-
Sfack.
Michigan won the college game 54-27. It was a dull
affair except for a 95 yard runback of the opening kick-off
by Gopher fullback Fred Engel, a 75 yard run back of a punt
by Michigan's Irf>weU Perry, two 30 yard runs after
receptions by Perry, two runs of 50 and 65 yards for TD's by
145-ix)und Wes Bradf6rd, and a dozen or so other thrilling
plays. Lowell Perry, who looks and runs much like Tom
Casey, plays nearly 60 minutes every game, left end on the
offense, and safety on the defence. He also did a little punt-
ing, including a 75 yarder that Minnesota fumbled and
Michigan recovered for a touchdown.
The stadium at first Jooked small, owing to their shorter
and narrower field and 10 yard end zones (Canadian end
zones are 25 yards deep). Then we looked up. And up. And
lip. There are 97,000 seats. What with this and the small
field, the stands cover more area than the field.
The teams in the Big Ten (there are nine teams so they
call it the Big Ten) all carry about 50 players or so, and
dress thenvall for games, or at least the home games. How-
ever, only 22 (the offensive and defensive terms) regularly
Bee more than a few minutes action. The rest are held in
reserve in case s.omebody gets hurt. They are the JV's
'(Junior Varsity) and except for the fact that they dress for
ttie big game on Saturday, are much like our Intermediates.
They play the JV's of other big colleges or the big teams of
email colleges in midweek games, and act as practice material
for the first tw6 or three strings to sharpen up on.
At Toronto, the Blues carry about 30 plays and the
Intermediates an equal number. The Ints generally play on
Friday, and scrimmage with the Blues at least once a week,
but do not dress for Senior games on Saturday,
In the Big Ten, unlike here, the first and second lines
do not practice body contact amongst themselves much dur-
ing the schedule — somebody might get hurt. The JV's, and
sometimes the freshmen, supply the cannon fodder for prac-
tice sessions, and generally go at it pretty hard, since their
best chance to crack the lineup is to make a regular player
look bad. . ,
touchdown. However, it was annull-
ed by the referee because the Vic
line was holding.
Skule wasted no iime in the
second half. The kickoff was car-
ried back to their own 25 and then
Snider and Lewis went foi 9 and 5
yards respectively for a first down.
Lewis faded baick for a pass and
was nailed for a l2-yai'd loss. A^in
he went back for a pass and this
time' heaved a 40-yard strike to
Carr who scampered the rest of the
way for a major. Prendergast con-
verted. *
Still In the third quarter Lodge
took u Skule puat to their 39. Fra-
zor, Goodfellow and Lodge carried
down to the Skule 16. Goodfellow
was smashed for no gain on thfe
next play but then Frazor went to
the one foot line and would have
gone over bad he not hit the goal
post. Quarter Lome Lodge sneaked
across and Williams converted.
Skule took the kickoff to theh-
own 35 and then marched down to
Victoria's 15-yard line. But disas-
ter struck when a fumble lost them
the ball. Victoria couldn't, make a
dent in the vicious Skule line and
kicked to their own 41. A pass was
grounded and Prendergast went for
5. Two more passes advanced the
ball to the Vic 15. Then Beady
made a sensational catch of Lewis'
;4jass in the end zone for a well de-
served major. Prendergast convert-
ed and the score was tied.
George Hevenor then saved tbe
day for Victoria. After Bond had
carried the kickoff to his own 21,
Hevenor galloped forty five yards
to the Skule 35. Bond went 20 yards
around right end. Bond an3 Lodge
then bucked to the 8 and Hevenor
hoofed it over the dead ball line
for the big point. Lewis threw two
desperation passes into the ground
and the game was over.

Blue Squash Team
Begins Practices
Today the TJnlversIty of Toronto
Soccer Blues resume their annu-
al rivalry with Buffalo State
Teachers College when they cross
the border to play their one ex-
hibition game of the year against
State's black and orange squad.
To date the Bines have yet to
suffer a defeat at the hands of the
Buffalo team. The State squad is
usually a big hard hitting team,
but are usually no match for the
skillful passing plays of the soccer
Blues.
This year however, the Varsity
team is going to be severely weak-
ened by the insistence of the bor-
der authorities that only players of
British Nationality shall be allow-
ed into the tJ.S. Apparently the
world situation is backfiring on
the Soccer Blues, as well as on in-
ternational politics, as six of the
eleven regulars will not be able to
travel with the team.
This will entail a wholesale ralct
ing of tbe Intermediate Soccer
Blues ranks in an attempt to con-
struct a team around the shell of
the senior team that is left. Even
'SO. a lot of the best players will
have to be left behind because of
their European or Latin American

Illuminated with bard light shin-
ing at alcohol-saturated faces is
the moodiest and perhaps the most
expressive.
The few landscapes shown do
not, seem to reach the high stand-
£krds of the other oils. Especially
the greens of the trees are strik-
ingly raw and do not harmonize
with the romantic subject matter.
The sketches are free, light and
quick. Some are excellent, such
as "The Spectators", "Equestrian"
and "Bare-back Practice." These
are sensitive in the quiclaiess of
expression, clean and exciting in
lines and very pleasantly held in
the frame of the paper. Other
drawings, like "Gorilla", "Bears"
and "Jaguar" seem indefinite,
hard and unsensitive in line and
everything but realistic.
On the whole the show is a vis-
ually pleasant example of how
far art " can ■ get out of contact
with the world we really live in.

It is a funny sight to see the thirty-

this instance. The Blues have to

JVas It Fear ?
By MAX PARSONS
Storm To Miss
Last week's issue of Collier's magazine- was devoted to
a "Preview of the War we do not Want". We suggest, despite
the protestations of the editors to the contrary, that the
issue ought to have been named "Preview of the War we
y/ou\d Like to Get Out of our Systems'*.
- Produced by some of the biggest names in the country
— from 'Robert E. Sherwood to Bill Mauldin — the issue
describes the hypothetical course of a war with Russia and
subsequent reconstruction. We are led from the horrors of
atom bomb raids on the United States right through to
the production of Guys and Dolls on the Russian stage.
While the editors state that war is not inevitable and
peace is to be earnestly sought, the readers of Collier's are
more apt to be impressed by the fruits of victory oyer
Russia. Their descrption of a war with Russia is fnghtennig
and awe-inspiring, yet the prospects of a united world tomor-
row is very tantalizing. And a war with Russian Commu-
nists might achieve this, according to the Collier's plan.
A war in which the Communists were defeated would
really be the war to end wars, they imply. It would have the
effect of an eraser, removing all previous problems and
replacing them wilh none — save the problems of production.
And as all American readers of Collier's know, this is a sur-
mountable one.
All these amplcations are most comforting, most dan-
gerous and most untrue. They are the ideas of the spoiled
children reared in the idyllic calm of the North American
■world. We want our own "way all the way. And until the
twentieth century we have been accustomed to eetting our
own way,
I This is why the ideas presented by Collier's may be very
attractive to many people. If a war with Russia could achieve
the absolute peace which we so earnestly desire, then by all
means»have it.
Yet again and again, it has been proved that the road
to peace does not cross through the battlefields of war
Rather, war is only a bad way of settling the. conflicts which
Inevitably and constantly arise throughout the world.
Also, it is doubtful that we can assume, as cheerfully
as Collier's does, that the bulk of the Russians are just wait-
ing to be Americanized. However much the majority ot
Rxtssians may hate their Communist ov^flords— and it is
quite possible they mav— there is little possibility that they
■mere was" quite a rasn of correspondence in
these columns last weelc about the refusal of The _
National Federation of Canadian University Stu-
dents (NFCUS) to invite scene Soviet students to
come to Canada for a visit this year. By and large
students seems to sujaport the principle behind such
an invitation, although many doubted that it would ,
do any real good.
Which is sll very fine. We seem at last to be
getting the view of a man very much forgotten
by the custodians of student government, the poor,
common student who is usually no more than a sta-
tistic in minute boolis and a reason lor ponderous
resolutions.
I have been intrigued, however, by one aspect
of the situation which for some reason has es-
. caped official notice. It consists of an odd contra-
diction, which I fall to understand.
First: history. -The invitation to the Soviet stu-
dents was extended last August by Denis Lazure,
then Chairman of the International Affairs Corn-
mission of NPCUS, who was attendijig an Inters
national Union of Students (lUS) CouncU meeting
in Warsaw. It went direct to the Russians at that
meeting, who, after clearing it through the home
office, accepted. This is a point some readers
should note— the Russians, according to Lazure,
had already received permission to come.
Such an invitation had, naturally to be cleared
through Canadian student officialdom. Lazure
brought it back to the NFCUS Conference held in
London, Ont., in September, where it had a rough
time. It almost didn't get out of committee— the
vote was 6 for, 5 against, and there was one aU-
stension.
The motion that did come before a full con-
ference meeting (called a plenary session) read:
Resolved: (a) That NFCUS, in co-operation
V with interested groups, attempt to bring a
delegation of Soviet students on the basis of
Soviet students on the basis of international
cultural relations to Canada,
(b) That no financial obligation be borne by
NFCUS in connection with this project.
This is the motion that was booted out by the
Conference, 12 vot,es against, 6 for, with no record-
ed abstensions. And this is the motion that all the
talk has been about. -
Why did the Conference turn down the proposal?
The only official "reason that I have been able to ^
dig up contained in a letter written by Syd Wax,
present Chairman of the International Affairs
Commission of NFCUS, to the president of the
Russian student group. It read6, in part:
This resolution was introduced at the plenary
session of the conference and as a result of the
discussion held it was felt that at the present
time it would be impossible to arrange such a
visit. A number of difficulties were raij.. !
conjunction with the financing of such ^ \
ject and the technical atrangements f oj. \
ducting such a tour across Canada. As a^"^
. suit ot these discussions, the resolution t
passed by the plenary session of the confefp^""!
A resolution which definitely stated that
financial obligation (should) be borne" ^as ^
feated because a "number of difficulties
raised in conjunction witli the financing of g^^^^
project"! I'm afraid I don't understand thaHi.
of i^asoning.
It has been suggested that the real reason tl
::1 down the resolution was fear,
of public opinion which the delegates
would crucify NPCUS if it made such a rev^!
tionary move, and also, and more subtly, feaj, ^
NFCUS of its inability to handle delicate ana co^
troversial issues.
Tliis is an old story. And it has really very mJ
to do With a visit of Soviet students. Once piaJI
on th& spot with some" controversial suggesti^l
NFCUlS neatly sidesteps the issue under covef ^1
one or more excuses whic hread like a primer hi
cliches.
There are two very decided points, of view ontiul
Soviet students. One group thinks they should ^jl
invited so that we could l>a:ve a look at scene rell
live, breathing Russian Communists, put tW|
into situations, ask them questions, show tht^
what we are, and perhaps explain why, and cat^
fully note their reactions. The other group thin^l
they should stay in Russia, that such a visit wouul
bring NFCUS harmful publicity, that it wouldiyjl
do any good anyway, that they will be no betiaj
than spies, that we couldn't change their opinij^J
(and so why bother with them), and perhaps
couldn't handle the technical arrangements ^
such a tilp.
NFCUS, and its officials, by their consistent re. I
fusal in the face of repeated demands, to inakejl
public statement of why they refused the im,.!
tation. by the wishy-washy attitude they do adop^
when put to the wall, have implied that the Cm, 4
dian university student is afraid to take up a cg. I
troversial issue and fight it out. If that is the I
then I think that NPC7US has done the CitnaQai
student a great injustice, I
This argument is on whether or not it Ik a gooil
idea to bring Soviet students to Canada am! ul
participate in a reciprocal visit (a forgoUen pasl
of the suggestion). J^any think it is. They feeltbsl
question should be- thoroughly discussed, Discu!*l
sion is not possible unless the NFCUS officialil
come right out into the open and give a fuil, de-f
tailed and intelligent statement ol why they tun- 1
ed down the proposal. |
It was not finances, for finances were ruled out
of the original suggestion. It must have been some-
thing else.. There are a great many students wlii
would like to know what the something else con-
sists of.
The buck now rests gently in the hands o'
NFCUS, and particularly of its International Al-
fairs Commission Chairman. Syd Wax.

66 Good Feathers
Editor, The Varsity:
We as students of the School ot
Social Work, concerned with the
Red Feather campaign for the
Community Chest, were interest-
ed and also surprised upon read-
ing The Varsity editorial on Mon-
day, October 22nd, entitled "Char-
ity Inc."
We were interested because the
issues raised are the issues that
face all of us. A few years ago
there was no Red Feather Cam-
paign. What happened? Many,
more than the Sixty-Six, withT^
over-lapping services, were vying
wi,th each other for your dollar.
Out of this chaos has grown the
cooperative organization of Red
Feather Services. The Junction ot
this organization is to coordinate
■ in ex-
ing your service or product. Busi-
ness uses it, governments use it,
universities use it, students in
their concern for other students
use it — why not Red Feather?
If anyone would like to discuss

in Japan, which is in some ways very westernized m outlook,
the gestapo-like Thought Police was re-instituted only one
•week after the Peace Treaty was signed. So much for the
transplanting the freedom of speech tradition!
The political atmosphere of the world today is as op-
pressive as the air before a storm. The policy of contain-
ment which the west has undertaken assumes that oppres-
sive air is preferable to a storm which would devastate both
the enemy and ourselves. Any suggestion that there would
be a brave new world after the storm is irresponsible
nonsense.
Feather organization in its com-
paratively short life, has in large
measure accomplished these aims.
But it is by no means perfect,
which it is the first to admit, and
is anxious for a;iy suggestion
which would further improve its
service to all of us as citizens of
this community.
With limited funds it i^^ under-
standable that students will have
to make a choice where they feel
their responsibilitie-s lie, to the
world community of students, to
the community in which they live",
or to both.
We were surprised that the edi-
torial questioned the use of ad-
vertising as a method of raising
unds. Advertising IS expensive.
On the other hand it is accepted
as the most efficient way of sell-

felt that it would be a shame
ta kill an activity that could in-
volve 11,000 students for the sake
0 f a show whose mamimum seat-
ing capacity would be 450.
The splrU of the freshmen and

have been no pep-rallies this year,
Jona Dancy, in Vic said. With a
contending team this year, Walt
Mackenzie, IV Meds, felt that the
team deserves more than a few
cheers at the game. He said that
it would still be possible to go to
the Follies after the pep-rally.
A few years ago a pep-rally was
held on the same night as the UC
Follies and as a result the Follies
was a failure. Ann Gostling. IV

after the Follies show. Both UC
and the Blue and White Society
asked for the night of Nov. 10 for
a dance. No agreement was
reached last spring when the dates
for Hart House were being allocat-
ed. This year, Hanly explained,
UC agreed in good faith to a com-
promise and the Blue and__ White
planned to hold a dance at Hart
House Nov. 10.
, UC feels that a pep-rally on Nov.
9, coupled with a dance the fol-
lowing night will cause the Follies
to be a financial failure. This
would mean that the year's activi-

In* In tlie editorial of (ice today »5
5 pjn. All masthead members, in-
cluding Music, Drama and Book
editors, are expected t» attend.
If
. . . we had a Student Union build-
ing, the Bob Revue cast would not
have to rehearse in the locker and
shower rooms in Little Vic.
In one of the most outspoken statements in the past
two years of Council history, the Chairman of the SAC
Radio Committee stated last night that his committee
members had "relegated him to the position of a by-
stander," while they made decisions without consulting
him.
The Radio Committee is a Students' Administrative
Council-sponsored activity, run under the direction of a
Chairman, who is a Council member. Since the Chairman
was not appointed until late this year, the Council formed
a committee composed of Rocky Martino, Grad, and Fred
Giles, IV UC.
After Waite spoke, SAC President Syd Wax amplified
his remarks, commenting that "these two gentlemen are
running the Radio Committee by themselves. When he
calls meetings of the Radio Committee, they either don't
bother showing up. or spend the time telling him what
they have done already, without previously consulting
him."
Wax further charged tTiat Martino and Giles were
committing the SAC without authority, and were using the
Radio Committee to settle private feuds.
"This committee is in the hands of too few people,"
charged Waite. "It must have wider campus participation.
Their meetings are informal and unparliamentary; there
is no chairman, they are not held in the Council office
(as are other committee meetings), and there is no chair-
man."
"This whole thing seems to boil down to the fact that
this committee is not Varsity-wide, as it should be, .but
two-man-wide," remarked Bud Trivett, Law.
As a result of these charges, the SAC withdrew their
appointment of Martino and Giles as the members of the
Radio -Committee. It is now up to Waite to form a new
committee.
Waite said his first move would be to call a general
meeting of all those persons and organizations interested
in working on a Radio Committee. He particularly stressed
glee clubs, in addition to the college drama societies al-
ready working with the Radio Committee.
At the general meeting a secretary would be added,
said Waite. Other appointments would be a Drama Direc-
tor and Round Table Director, to take charge of the two
man activities of the Radio Committee. He also hopes to
expand the Committee's work to include special events
such as musicales, and a university talent show.
The present Radio Committee has already made ar-
rangements for drama productions by the four Arts
College drama groups, to be heard over CJRT. Martino
reported that CKEY was unwilling to broadcast the Round
Table discussions, as they did last year.
However, Secretary-Treasurer E. A. Macdonald read
out a letter from CKEY News Editor Harry Rasky, assur-
ing him that CKEY was willing to broadcast the program,
on the understanding that Rashy would be moderator.
Previously Martino had criticized Rashy's handling of the
program in his position as moderator last year.

I attended courses at the He-

(I.e. the New City).
Such a system of widely-separ-

the university is mainly concern-
ed with laboratories, libraries and
finding places tor the students to
sleep. Many of the 200 students
are from foreign countries or from
other parts of Israel and with the
acute housing shortage in Jerusa-
lem, the authorities do find some
difficulties in arranging accommo-
dations.
Since we were a group of Cana-
dian and American tourists, our
lecturers spoke to us m English,
but the official university lan-
guage Is Hebrew. I recall hearing
a Psychology professor here in

SAC At A Glance
Besides censuring the Radio
Committee and deciding to hold a
Pep Rally November 9. at its
meeting last night the Students'
Administrative Council:
—decided to hold the Mock Par-
liament elections on November 15,
in spite of the dangers of their be-
ing used for political propaganda
in the provincial elections one
week later,
—decided not to give S250 to the
Folk Dancing Group, for records
and choreographers, on the
grounds that the 25 members of
the group did not constitute an
"all Varsity" activity,
..—raised the SAC President's ex-
pense account from SlOO to $200.
and in addition created a S200 hos-
pitality fund. This money is to be
used to entertain visiting delega-
tions from other universities.
— approved the purcliase of a
desk, chair, and filing cabinet for,
an office for the SAC President, to
be placed in the Women's SAC Of-
fice in University College. A

a future date.
—gave "spiritual" support to 'a

—approved a $250 grant to-
wards the expenses of the delega-

LITERARY
The Varsity is going to publish
a Literary Issue again this year.
Tbe deadline for taming material

at The Varsity office. There are
openings for entries in Short Stor-
ies, Poetry, and Essays in both
serious and lighter vein. There
will also be a competition in pho-

The Bracken Trophy, stolen from

University of Manitoba.
Arrival of the trophy was pre-

The Varsity printed across the top,
explaining that The Varsity had
won the trophy the previous year,
but felt that The Manitoban was
more deserving of it this year. The
letter was presumably signed
"Editor, The Varsity".

Fot the first time since the Hillel

a woman occupied the platform. Dr.
Ti-ude Weiss-Rosmai-in, the guest
speaker at the first lecture of " the
season, chose as her tooic Wednes-
day night "What Can the Modem
Jew Believe?"
"Wc believe that we are the first
generation of Jews to ask what God
is and wonder how can modem
man believe in God, 'nit ?o did man
before us", said Dr. Weiss-Ros-
marin.
One problem Is that the person
trained in philosophical thought
fmds it difficult to take at face
value the text of the Bible as it is
mitten stated Dr: Weiss -Rosmarin.
God speaks to Moses, and in Proph-
ets you find passages such as "and
God said to me" in the Bible, and
many great thinkers and philoso-
phers with a rationahstic view can-
not accept a God that uttered

sounds in a language known, to man,
she added.
"The difficulty of the rationaUsts
is solved by the admission that man
can never really know what God
is, and once we become resolved to
it, the text of Ciie Bible presents no
further difficulties to us."
Even today there are two factions
in the Jewish camp — the rational-
ists, and those who believe instinc-
tively and have no questions in the
realm of belief said Dr. Weiss-Ros-
marin. Whereas tlie rationalists
questioned and analysed the idea
or God speaking to man, those who
are instinctive believers accept the
idea of God communicating to
mortals.
The Old Testament is the essenc4
of Western civilization and all that
it has inspired; takeaway that and
all that remains would be the
■barbarian ism rampant am.ong the
, Nazis and among the Russians wlio
both banished the Bible.
Cheers
The Blue- and White Society has
reached a compromise as to what
the cheerleaders should -do when a
Varsity Blue rugby player is Injur-
ed. The decision is a result of ths
booing incident In last Saturday's
Queens- Varsity game.
Both cheers and applause will b«
used, said a Blue and White official.
This is to fUl the gap of time while
the injured player is on the field.
The audience is asked to cheer whUe
the trainers are on the fieW with
the injured player and to applaud
as he leaves the field.
Previously the cheerleaders were
instructed not to lead cheers for in-
dividual players as it was felt by the
Blue and White Society that ap-
plause was in "better taste",
. This is the result of last week-
end's game when the cheerleaders
were booed as they failed to lead
the crowd in a yeU for injured full-
back, Steve Oneschuk.

coming government agencies." s«id
Engineering IJean K. F. Tupper
Friday night.
Speaking at the fourteenth trien-
nial reunion of the University's
Skule alumni before about 750 grads.
he pointed out that the direct con-
tribution of private industry to this
"University, for example, was a very
small fraction of total income.
Sixty per cent of its contributed
eupport now came from govern-
ments, he said. This was a develop-
ment of the past twenty-five years.
There were many sincere men in
government agencies, but they exist-
ed to carry out the will of the gov-
ernment of the day. Dean Tupper
continued. To preserve the vital in-
tellectual independence ef Cana-
dian universities, more direct sup-
port must come from private in-
dustry, he stated.
Industry was obligated to univer-
sities for trained men. he said, and
many of these men started at
higher salaries than the profes-
Bors who taught them.
Universities had tradltionaUy been
the source of supply of trained men
for industry, but by the time uni-
vei-sity grads reached high-manage-
ment level they had lost touch with
.the needs of the university, particu-
larly its independence. The Dean
felt this was essential to scientific
truth and progress.

SCIENCE NOTES
Pennies From Heaver
By STAN 6CHATZ ''
When prospector Pied Chubb stumbled into a big hole
barren wastes of Northern Quebec, he bumped his head on ^"L
scientific discovery. In cooperation with Dr. V. B. Meen o£
university, he inspired a joint expedition of the National Geogra
Society and the Royal Ontario Museum that culminated in
investigation and confirmation of the largest meteor crater
to man. . *1
Such an annonncement invites the question: What is a niei
crater? Meteors are small solid celestial bodies which become viv*^
when they enter the earth's atmosphere and are heated to ixi^f*-
descence by impact with air molecules. They then appear as moment^'
streaks of light across the night sky that have been long known"
"shooting stars." Unusually brilliant ones are called "fireballs." Bewa
of undue hyperbole, however, for if the meteor's brilliant trail is jgo!^
and rain is falling, you are probably observing lightningl The l'^.
"meteor" is derived from the Greek word pertaining to anything
air. Meteorology, the science of atmospheric phenomena is
concerned with meteors but with the interpretation of the Canada
weather beacon. - .
Friction due to the resistance of the air raises the temperature
these swiftly moving bodies to about 7000 degrees Centigrade, aim
most cases this great heat causes these meteors to burn up before th""!
reach the earth. Those larger meteors that survive the flight throij!l
the air and fall to the ground are called meteorites. Specimens i^^M
about 1600 falls have been recovered, and new ones -are being fou^d
the rate of twenty-five a year. Tlieir fall is frequently accosnpanjil
by bright flashes of light, by eJtplosive roaring sounds, and hl|
appropriate screams from startled observers. Most meteorites are fouM*!
at or a little way below the surface. They are of two kinds; thov!!
composed of . metal (iron and nickel) and those of stone. Sometin,
like a -tlozen known meteorites weigh more than a ton. A few \^nm
large ones have blasted out the great pits known as meteor cratml

gases to expand explosively, scattering what is left of the meteoriisl

the size of a crater in Aiizona which was- some three-quarters

Why is it that sometimes the best
concerts are least well attended?
That Is what happened yesterday
afternoon in Hart House, when
baritone Donald Brown and ac="
companist. Dr. George Brough pre-
sented a recital. The program was
skilfully constructed, and equally
well performed, and yet a mere
handful of students was present.
Only one number on the program
was written within the last hun-
dred years, but such was the vari-
ety of older music performed, that
boredom was at all times kept at a
distance.
The central group on the pro-
gi-am was Beethovert's much-dis-
cussed but seldom-performed song
cycle "An die feme Geliebte" ("To
the distant beloved"). Beethoven
composed the six brief, passionate
.poems comprising the cycle in very
simple, eloquent style. Some of the
songs repeat the same musical
phrase over and over In different,
though related keys; two of them
are strophic, repeating several
verses to the same music. Through-
out, it is the unity In thought be-'
tween the words and the subtle
rhythmiO' and harmonic changes of
the accompaniment tliat sustain
Intefest in the music. It is to Mr.
Brown's and Dr. Brough's great
credit that they strove to attain
this unity in their performance,
and succeeded admirably. Piano
and voice were equally devoted to
expression of tlie feelings of the
poems, and when the cycle closed
with a reference to the melody of
the original song, we feit that they
had never parted company from
beginning to end.
To open the recital, Mr. Brown
sang four eighteenth century
songs, two by Handel and two by
Bach. The agility of his voice, and ,
his clean intonation make this sort
of music very suitable for him. He
also managed to convey to the
audience the diference between tha
singers — Phoebus, Pan. and a
boastful Philistine giant — in spite
of the fact that the music given to
all three is very similar.
Mr. Brown also sang a number of
old English songs, and four Irish
ballads. Here his excellent enuncia-
tion made it possible to follow the
stories related by the songs. Coupled
with his feeling for modal melody,
this made the group particularly ap-
pealing. They were sung with all-
their native simplicity and humor,
and were very well received by the
audience.
It has long been^ our contention
that Dr. Brough is one of the fin-
est accompanists in Toronto. He,
lived up to his- reputation once
again on Wednesday, and g*,ve us
crisp, clean, and very carefully con-
trolled accompaniments. He was
I never obtrusive, and always a
worthy partner of a fine singer.

By DAVE PEDDIE
Next week the Royal Alex is playing host to DARKNESS AT NOON
and it will be a relief to see a professional show that is not of the
calibre of OKLAHOMA, which was good once but that is its limit.
DARKNESS AT NOON was originally a novel by Arthur Koestler,
written in the thirties just after he had left the Communist party.
He has since become a very bitter opponent to Communism and has
tri^d to formulate in vaguely philosophical terms the reasons why
Communism is a poor political creed.
The play which has been on Broadway for the last year Is about a
party man who is under suspicion and is in jail f<>r investigation. This
investigation almost breaks the man completely, leaving him exliausted
and barely able to find anything to live for. •
The lead part will be played by Edward G. Robinson who haj
taken over from the original actor. Claude Rains.
The fhst of the revues will take over Hart House Theatre next
week — The Bob Revue will play Monday to Wednesday and the tJ.O.
Follies will be on stage Friday and Saturday. These are the only shows
put on by the Arts Colleges and they will both be eager to outdo each
other.
College shows have come up for a great deal of criticism lately.
People aie beginning to ask whether these shows are worth the trouble
and the money. It has become more and more expensive to produce
them and on top of that there have been a number of people wliose
marks have definitely suffered from lack of studying.
Since there arc only a few acts in each full-length show that are
really good "theatre," the promoters of the college show cannot say
that they are developing taleiit. And after tliat the' only excuse for
the shows is that they help that very tenuous creature .oUege spirit."
Just how much does it build spirit and if it does — what kind of spirit
does it build?
There have been a few moans from the Hart House box office
that the seats for MADWOMAN OP CHAILLaiT are liot selling as
they should. In the past the house has been almost full every night of
the week. Is the university losing its interest in the theatre or are the
students too broke to pay 73 cents to see a play by students on -the
campus? It IS a sad reflection on Uie student body when they go less
and less to plays and yet turn out in as great .strength to see the
football games. The two are not mutually exclusive: going to see a
good play can be just as entertaming. In the case of the MADWOMAN
OF CHAHiLOT it can even be good fun.

JIM BUTLER I a terrific showing lor Trinity.
After a dull and scoreless first
half, things really got rolling and
UC struck for three touchdowns,
only one being converted. The first
came early in the third quarter
when UC recovered the boll as
Wheeler fumbled a bad snap deep
In Meds territory. Nichols went for
one first down and then Richardson
took a pitchout afid galloped way
round the end for a major. Peebles
hoofed the extra point.
Two plays later, UC intercepted
a pass. Cucin went all the way to
the 2-yard line and oa the next
scrimmage, Peebles sneaked over the
end again. This time the convert
atten^t failed. In the last quarter,
Richardscm stormed for two first
downs taking play t« the Meds one.
Peebles threw it over to :a-own who
went away wide for the major
which was unconverted again. And
that was the story of the scoring.
There was one injury of a serious
nature in the game, that to Moran
of Meds who was hiu-t on the same
play that got UC its final touch-
down. He was borne off on a
stretcher and later to the General
Hospital suffering from a torn car-
tilage in his knee.
Play moved up and down the
field durmg the whole first half
with neither side getting very close
to pay dirt. Both QB's, Peebles for
UC and Wheeler for Meds. clicked
with a few passes but none for large
gains. Blchaixlson got away for one
good run for the Red and White but
it was nullified by a clipping penal-
ty and this same thing happened'
to a number of pla^s on both sides.
The half ended with nothing decid-
ed.
Bryon Peebles was a triple threat
star in this contest. His passes were
hitting the mark, his kicks were
consistently long and when he chose
to run the ball himself he . went
places. He ghosted through for one
touchdown and another time, when
he was back to kick and was rush-
ed, he zig-zagged for forty yards
right up the middle of the Meds
team. Richardson, Brown, Cucin
and Wilkes were ground-gainers for
the Red and White. The first two
both scored majors and Cucin set

two before he was downed. Jack

Join_^the navy and see the world;
dozens' of men from the Univer-
sity of Toronto have done just that
during the past summer. Tales of
grass skirts, Hawaiian beauties that
fill ^ grass skirts, navy discipline,
submarine rides, English pubs, Pic-
cadiliy Square, cigarettes at ten
cents a pack can still be heard all
over the campus. On board ship the
UNTD Cadets faced naval disci-
pline at its toughest and on shore
they did the things that sailors will
do. Tlie highlights of the summer
training were the actual cruise and
the forty-eight hour leave at the
point of debarkation.
On board ship (frigates) the
Cadets had considerably more to do
than play shuffle board. Each
Cadet was fuliy employed with dog-
watches, messenger duty, seaman-
sliip lectures, and huge doses of
navy discipline and deck swabbing.
And then there was the inevitable
seasickness for some of the cadets.
While on board the cadets had oral questions. The^e questions may

"The human world needs the help
and remedy, the new life and regen-
eration which can come only from
God", said Mi-s. Audrey Westheuser
at the open meeting of the Uni-
vei-sity Baha'i Student Group yes-
terday.
"God's eternal covenant has been
revealed progressively. Irrigating
currents of revelation have been
the source of spiritual renewal in
every age and liave been the mighty
civilizing forces of their time," the
speaker went on to say. "Through
obadience to^the ordinances of God
we can overcome the exigencies of
our time and learn to dominate our
environment. Thus the power of
God operates through a collective
center and today is flowmg through
the creative words of Baha'u'llah".
Mis. Westlieuser continued by
saying that "the goal is to unite
races, creeds, and nations, to clear
away the superstitutions. dogmas
and rituals wliich are keeping men
from truth and reality in all re-
ligion, and to show tliat there is
but one religion arid tliat all the
prophets have taught it."
"In one hundretJ and six cotintries
of the world Baha'is ai'e leajning to
live according to principles of unity.
World peace cannot be assured
through patriotic devotion nor can
human agencies alone bring peace,
The guidance of God is essential,
and this guidance has been given to
no time to realize what a great ex-
perience they were undergoing, but
as soon as they docked and had
their feet on solid ground, the
cruise seemed a most remarkable
experience. Most cadets crammed
more into the forty-eight hour leave
immediately after docking than any
Skuleman could pack into a quarter
of a dozen football week-ends in
Montreal. From both England and
Hawaii cadets brought home loot
ranging from grass skirts to Harris
Tweed sport jackets: ^
In order that the cadets will be
able to survive this the UNTD in
sists that they obtain the very best
material. Of the three armed ser-
vices, the Navy is the only branch
that admits men on the basis of
oral examinations. A candidate, if
in good physical condition, is inter-
viewed and either accepted or
turned down on the basis of that
interview. If accepted the candi-
date assumes the rank of Ordinary
Seaman and must attend weekly
"parades" at H.M.C.S. York. At
these evening classes the seaman
goes through boot training, attends
lectures, «nd gets his first taste of
that notorious naval discipline.
After some weeks of this type of
training the seaman then comes
before his Board, consisting of both
Reserve and Regular Naval offi-
cers, where he faces a series of
range from "Do you go steady?" to
"Who won the World Series?" If
the seaman passes his "Board" he
is promoted from Ordinary Seaman
to Cadet.
The merits of the naval disciplin-
ary system cannot be denied. The
UNTD's' main function is to
train men to be naval offipers of a
high calibre; and to' be a good
leader the cadet must show that
he is humble enough to be led dur-
ing that training. The actual tram-
ing of the cadets is of the very best
as witnessed by the buinmer cruise.
The best way to learn about a ship
is to live, sw^at, and get seasick on
that ship.
But who cares about hard work
and tough discipline when fags are
a half a cent each and Hawaii is

to criticism and evaluation, but that

The Editor, The Varsity:
What is the purpose of having campus
elections for the. Mock Parliament? The
demand for them is coming from the
political clubs who represent a very small
proportion of the student body. Only those
in the clubs will take an active interest
in them but the whole campus will be in-
volved. Most Varsity students are not in-
terested in the Mock Parliament, yet the
resujts of the election, if held, will be.
announced in large -letters in Toronto
papers as the opinion of the student l^ody.
I see no reason why Varsity should pro-
vide propaganda for any party, right or
left win-c.
There is another objection to elections
tX this time. The Mock Parliament dis-
lartoon by Hugh Niblock. ..." t, .
^ cusses only Dommion issues, not Frovm-
cial matters. Yet the tentative date for
election is November 15, just a

political leaders will use campaig|

VANDALS PAINT CAMPUS
Hold Emergency Meeting
To Investigate Rowdyism
— Varsity Staff Photo by Tod Sporrow
Tjniversity College took a beatinfr on Wednesday night. Most likely
the siffo shown above and another one saying "Skule Forever" will
I be visible for years unless an ugly' light patch obliterates them.
:adio Round Table
lay Be Resumed
The University, Radio Round Table may "be going over
Ithe airwaves this year after all, in spite of a report from
the SAC Radio Committee that CKEY had refused to broad-
last it. The round table, entitled "Of Minds and Men" was
[leard on CKEY last winter, under the auspices of the Radio
ommittee.
However, the broadcast schedule will not begin until the
fcew year, since coming provincial and muncipal elections
tre taking up all the free time on the station. Programs
^ill be able to stai't the first week in. January according to
ttation officials.
No university windows were broken on Hallow-
e'en, but a- wave of vandalism did sweep the
campus Wednesday night as All Saints" Day was
ushered'in.
Students fcoming to classes yesterday morning
were greeted by painted signs *on the walls of
University College, Whitney Hall, Trinity and
Knox, and on the steps of Victoria College.
The Students' Administrative Council has called
a special mefeting of its Executive Committee,
together with college and faculty presidents, to
air the matter,
SAC President Syd Wax sai3 last night that if
nec:essary an investigating committee will be set
up to look into the whole problem of mob spirit
and rowdyism on the campus.
The emergency meeting will be held at 1 p.m.
today. Members present will be the Presidents of
the UC, Vic and Kngineering student governments;
the president, vice-president and secretary-
treasurers of the SAC, and the Editor o£ The
Varsity.
"I don't remember a worse case of vandalism In
all my years at the university," commented UC
Principal Jeanneret yesterday. 'T cannot believe
that any student of this or any other university
committed this vandalism. If it is found that some
student is responsible, I think he deserves
expulsion."
The signs, painted In oil-base paints, are still
to be found on the front and side walls of Uni-
versity College, the windows of Knox, and the
steps of Victoria. They have already been removed
from Trinity and Wymilwood.
UC suffered the worst damage from the as yet
unidentified vandals. Two men spent most of
- yesterday trying to remove the white-paint
"Skule Forever" on the side wall of Croft Chapter
House. Although they have managed to remove
most of the paint, much of it still remains in the
stone itself, and can be clearly read. The other
sign. "Skule Stable," still remains on the front
wall.
"Passion Pit" was the comment painted on the
red brick wall of Whitney Hall, the UC girls*
residence In both the case of Whitney and UC,
the paint ft ill have to be scraped slowly away by
hand. It is impossible to use solvent, since the
solvent and paint would sink even deeper into the
bricks. Sand-blasting would necessitate cleaning
the entire wall.
"Those signs will be -there for some years to
come." commented one UC caretaker.
At Trinity, one Of the heavy wooden front-
doors was taken down for refinishing. after the
painted "Skule" sign had been removed. The other
door has been cleaned with gasoline and will need
refinishing, but has been left on the main
entrance.
One of the large gym windows of Knox College,
opening out on the lane between Knox and
Simcoe Hall, was liberally painted with signs of
"Skule," "Meds," "fool," and various initials. On
the front steps of Victoria College, someone
painted "Pink 'n Yellow." This was done in a
different color paint from the others, and some
feel this is an Indication it was done by a differ-
ent group of persons.
In Wymilwood. one of the Vic women's residences,
"^ule" was painted in white over the fireplace.
At the O.T. Huts on Devonshire Place, the door
was blocked by a sign nailed across it. When the
caretaker came to open the huts, she was hurt in
removing the sign. She may have a fractured bone
in her hand, as a result of injury from the falling
sign.
In an official statement to the University, the
Engineering t'oclpty said: "The appearance pi
the word "Skale" In oil paint inferred that mem-
bers of the Engineering student body were at
fault. If It is found that students of our faculty
are responsible for the damage, we shall cer-
tainly support any disciplinary action which
might be taken by the university authorities. In
our opinioD, the incident was highly deplorable.
We would welcome any accurate information
which might shed some true light on the un-
fortunate situation."
I The students' Administrative ♦-
fOuncil received this information at
meeting Wednesday night in a
fetter from CKEY News Editor
Barry Rasky.

"ut that because they don't
understand the foreign languages
in which many of the best texts are
written, students are often forced
to use second-rate English texts.
This difficulty is also found on the
graduate and faculty level, he add-
ed.
"You can't ask anyone to know 25
languages", said Dr. Helcheihelm.
"Many times I have been lucky m
the past by finding a student in
my class who could translate a
language I do not know. But other
times it has meant hard work with
a dictionary."
Dr. Helchelheim envisioned
translation bureau composed of
students with a working knowledge
of the various languages.
He thinks it should be self-suf-
ficient. Fees for students would be
asked only if a typed translation
was required: for grads and faculty
a small, reasonable fee would be
charged for any work: for outsiders
a higher fee would be asked.
"This project Is such a good idea,
and so valuable, that it should real-
ly be given to the university auth-
orities to carry out," commented
Professor R. S. Knox. SAC Facul-
ty Advisor. Doug Sherk, Engineer-
ing, agreed saying that such a bur-
eau was outside the authority of
the SAC.
It was finally decided to pass it
to the student Service Commission
for investigation.. The commission
has been empowered to get in
touch with university authorities
in connection with the translation
bureau
Council Statement
The use of paint on the walls
of University College is a child-
ish prank, but, because it has a
mutilating effect on the stone-
work, it will be practically Impos-
sible to remove for some time,
and it becomes more serious.
The campus seems to reflect a
distorted sense of humor and
lack of proportion lately. Th»
theft of almost $300 worth of dec-
oratioa from the Homecoming
Dance at Hart House marked a
new high in juvenile irresponsi-
bility.
The same infantile outlook iM
manifest In the painting on th«
walls of the various buildings.
What may have been considered
as a great stunt at the time shows
8 lack of imagination and has re-
suited in damage to buildings
with possible serious repercus-
sions to the student body as a
whole.
What the students seem t«
have forgotten is that their ac-
tions may cast serious reflections
on the student body. The Stu-
dents' Administrative Council will
not condone any irresponsible
student pranks.

Those who felt most strongly the
new expenses are those students
who are living away from home.
As one put it. "$50 pays three
weeks room and board."
To sum up. student feeUngs
seem to be divided on the question
of whether or not the increase was
just. However, their opinions,
generally, were that the situation
might have been avoided had our
government, Federal or provin-
cial, or both, granted the U. of T. a
sum sufficient to coyer new ex-
penditures. Recent figures pub-
Ushed in a well-known Toronto
newspaper show the excess taxes
of the Ontario government to be
roughly $30 million. Six S'^'dred
thousand dollars, that is one-fifti-
eth of this sum, would have kept
fees at last year's level. By slm-
p" arithmetic then, fees shou d
Sot only not »ave been raised but
they might have been loweredl
Red China AdmissioiJ^
Debated At UN Club
•The present attitude of the Un-
ited States toward the Chinese
Communist regime seems to be
born out of a psychological frus-
tration at having lost her chance
in China," said All Tayeh at the
United Nations club meeting last
night.
Th« recently formed UN club
was congratulated by Tayeb on the
selection of the topic: "The Prob-
lem of the Admission ol Commumst
Chma to the United Nations Or-
ganization."*
The problem was classed as a
knotty one by the speaker. I use

subject.
The speaker gave a chronological
outline of the situation in south-
east Asia since the Chinese revolu-
tion of .1949. President Roland
CorlnelUe. in thanking Tayeb, des-
cribed the outline as "an exoeUent
skeleton" on which the flesh ol
future discussions could be built.
The talk, mainly factnal. ^ was
planned to introduce the problem
of admitting Bed China to the
UN. No definite conclusicms were
reached, and few opinions offer

with regard to Red China as one
which recognlies realistically the

Leon Bookman, IV Chemical

government should have helped
the situation. He revealed that
various students in his course were
already in debt in an effort to
clear their fees.

felt the government might easily
have offered aid here. "In prac-

At the time of the raise, it was

tration announced that if the .aid
did come through at the assumed
sum. they would consider a fee

the increase. This fall the stu-

Dr. A. M. MacKenzie. He agreed
after two and a half hours of dis-

'No American TV
Say U C Debaters
An appeal to the University Col-
lege Debating Parliament by Ann
Wilkinson, first speaker for the
government, that they should act
as artsmen and not engineers, help-
ed the Parliament to decide last
night that "in the interests of
Canadian culture private enter-
prise should not be given complete
control of television."
Miss Wilkinson said that a delay
was better "than having Betty
Grable in our homes," and that
free enterprise admits -that their
programs are for an audience of
children of seven or eight. She gave
the motto of television in the Unit-
ed States as: "Entertainment for
morons."
The resolution was defeated by
a vote of 21 to 17, although the
first division of the house was 21
to 4 against. Speaking for the gov-
einment, Harriet Thomson, II UC,
said that while advertising may be
a "dirty word" even the opera de-
pends on advertising. She said that
if television was left to the private
stations there would be no resent-
ment against "highbrow stuff be-
ing thrown down arbitrarily. Miss
Thomson remarked that the CBC
cost Canadians $3,000,000. annual-
ly and could afford to be arbitrary
and extravagant while private en-
terprise did iTot cost a cent.
Charles Hanly, III U.C., second
speaker for the opposition, felt that
any person whose life is governed
by the dollar is not free, and that
private enterprise is not interested
in the public welfare. He was then
asked by Eli Rubin. IV UC, "what
has the opposition got against
money?"
Other comments were that TV
was "a capitalist plot to distract
the workingman from constructive
thought"— Jack Robson. past presi-
dent of the UC Lit, and Jack Med-
coff, IV UC, "if you don't like
television you can turn it off." _

A Glance At Buddha
With today's student seeking a
broader knowledge of the world in
which he lives, the Department of
East Asiatic Studies is offering, for
the first time since its inception
in 1948, a course in Chinese religious
and phUosophic thought.
Dr. L. C. Walmsley, Head of the
I>epartment, had a long and. rich
experience in educational work in
the interior of China. Living there,
among people uninterrupted in their
culture by the progiess pf science,
he was able to see the Buddhists
at meditation, and the Confucian
pattern of sofcial relationships at
work. Dr. Wnlmsley^Js giving this
new course, "designed to open up
the windows to the student, into
the wonderfully rich historical and
cultui-al background of one of the
worjd's longest and greatest .civiliza-
tions," ^ ,
Though many of the roots of our
Western "Culture originated in the
Mediterranean areas — Greece.
Rome, and the ^ear East, there is
now in progffess one of the greatest
cultuj-al collisions in history. In the
past the West achieved power and
control over the world's resoui'ces
to the extent where it could readily
dominate China, and be concerned

Those days are gone forever — China

"The Russ^n shadow that has

To Professor Friedmann the pic-

lems have for us here in Canada

ment was hopeless in Berlin, the
West might have quit the city and

dling at a future round table.
The discussion, also touched upon
the formation of a new society on
the campus, The CHOP.
"The Campus Hair-Raise rs on
Parade is an organization dedicat-
ed to raising glorious moments in'
history on the campus," explained
Trudi Trumperton HI Vic, Social
Directress, who went on to express
the hope that next year's float

"Many expect a university edu-
cation to give them a passport to
life," Hart House Warden Nich-
olas Ignatieff said last night in the
first of the Health Service lecture
series at the Psychiatric Hospital
before a small group of six.
*'The feeling should be, however,
that the university is only the be-
ginning in life— there is much
more later/' he said.
Speaking on "The University and
the Community," the Warden sug-
gested that college extra-curricu-
lar activities should fill this gap
as interest in the arts, world af-
fairs and politics is something that
is developed when a youth is near
or at maturity.
"Extra-curricular activities help'
develop the whole man, aid latent
talents, assist in developing judg-
ment, improve physical condition
and encourage initiative," he
said. Warden Ignatieff also de-
scribed these activities as aiding
the undergrad in becoming cons-
cious of the great opportunities
in Canada, something which many
accept as "matter of fact."
"The university shows the way
in medicine, engineering and oth-
er professions, to a lesser extent
in literature and creative art, but
the university begins to slip when
it comes to human affairs," he

,Thc aim of theTROS is twofold:
t-o acquaint the students with Cana-

equally important, to give Canadi-
an an opportunity to learn more of
the people and institutions repie-
.sented by students from abroad.
The Community Is concerned in

make arrangements for such things

lines.
stated.
The Warden then mentioned the ' demic and extra-curricular
state of our affairs as a whole in
the world today. "Never in our
history have we been nearer a
precipice," he said; "man has not
learned to control his environ-
ment?'
"Artificially stimulated emotion,
as displayed by pep rallies and
cheerleaders. exhibits exactly
what a university should not be."
he continued. "These artificial
emotional efforts cut right across
the sense of individualism preva-
lent in North America the spon-
taneous desire to do something to-
gether. .
Warden Ignatieff criticized the
effect of mass efforts at artificial
emotion as tending to produce a
"bunch of sheep", being led to
support any cause, no matter what
it is. In its innocent way. this
cut across the sense of Individual-
ism and dragged us down, he
said.
Last year, the PROS helped stu-
dents with language difficulties,
organized tours' for them to vari-
ous centers of Canadian industry,
government, and businejs. so that
they get an idea of the workings
of Canadian democracy. Canadians,
on the other hand, phone up to aslt
students for Tlianksgivlng week-
ends, Christmas dinner, aiid make
them part of the Canadian family
and customs on such occasions.
As there is, as yet. no easy way
to obtain a complete list o^foreign
students, everyone is asked by the
PROS to register with Mrs. Kay
Ridden, their new Toronto office,
in the Household Science Building,
or to phone MI, 4884. ■
You will soon find that Cana-
dians are eager to extend theii- hos-
pitality to you, and to contribute to
the good impressions you wiil be
taking with you.

The Hockey Season Is Here. Al-
ready with the thermometer dip-
ping to the freezing point, intercol-
legiate and intramural teams have
begun their practices. About six-
ty hopefuls for the Blues turned
out at Varsity Arena on Monday
and Wednesday but with the first
eut on Wednesday the group has
been pared down to a manageable
eize of approximately thirty.
It appears at this early dat«
that the Blues will be packed with
power offensively, but the defen-
sive situation is at present one of
great doubt. Coach Bill Wade
has an abundance of good for-
wards this year but the loss oE
stellar goalie Ev Leuty and de-
lencemen Porky MacDougall and
John Addison has left a large de
Censive gap.
' XIp front Wade has veterans
Ernie Frey, Norm, Fox. Pete Ver-
non, Al Conboy, Bill Yeo. JeiTy
Henderson and Doug Dies all
lighting Jor their old positions. Be-
sides these performers there is an
impressive number of newcomers
^who should add a great deal of
scoring punch to the team. Fore-
most amongst the new players iS
Jack McKenzie who last year play-
ed with the Marlboro Seniors. Oth-
er members of the Leafs' chain
that should show '* well are Don
Rope, now playing soccer, and
Jack Weldrake.
Doug Orr, regular goalie in the
1949-50 season is out to regain his
old position. Johp Milne and Bruce
Taylor, former Junior B goalies,
and Jim Ross, last year's inter-
mediate goalie are the other three
seeking the netminder's position.
Two footballers are expected to
augment the squad when tho
rugby season ends. Gerry Fitz-
henry will likely take a second
lease on his defence position, while
Johnny Adams is expected to an-
nex a forward position.
Intermediate practices will com-
mence on November 19.

There will be an important
meeting of the Varsity sports
staff, on Tuesday, November
10 at 1:00 p.m., in Room 78,

lowing are urged to attend:

Jr. Skule Defeats Dents 7-0
All Scoring In Last Quarter
' Red Stevens, late of the Oshawa
Generals, is almost a sure bet to
tie down a regular position on the
team. Logic, Davison, Holden,
Bennett, ^asaa, Lawson and Full-
ertoQ are the other forwards that
survived the first chop.
The only regular member of last
year's defence corps that has been
out so far, is Joe Kane. Fingland
Machin, and Prendergast, who
have all played for either Uie In-
termediates or the Junior B's, are
currently engaged In attempting to
secure regular defence positions.
Others who are still in the running
for the rearguard division are
Moreau, Stewart, Andrew, and
Dalglelsh.

teams changed «nds for the final
Yesterday afternoon, the red-hot
Junior SPS squad extended their
unbeaten streak to practically
clinch first place in their group.
They edged a fighting Dents teanr
that needed a win to stay In the
running, 7-0. All the scoring was
done in Uie last quarter when the
winners notched a single and a
conveited touchdown.
The Dentists outplayed Skule by
fair margin in the abbreviated
first half but failed to score. One
touchdown by Dents Jack Gilbert
was called back because of an off'
side on the play. However, they did
hem tlie Engineers in their own end
for most of the half as a result of
a partially blocked kick and a long
pass. Dents Bill Jeffry was taken
off with a dislocated shoulder, the
first of two injuries in the game.
Sknlo's long kickofi to start the
second half set Dents back on their
ten yard line and theh- kick on
third down was almost blocked and
went into touch at the fifteen. The
Dentists set them back after two
running plays and then blocked tba
attempted placement.
Taking over, Dents marched
down Into Skule territory led by
quarter Jack Gilbert who burst
through lor two long gains. They
were pushed back, to centre and
Pete O'Cwmor's nice put was taken
out to the llfteen. SPS quick-kick-
ed on second down and then tbe
quarter.
O'Connor's kick was brought out
to the ten and Horton's kick was
run back across the field for a
anall gain by Dent's Jack Wall.
Gilbert's pass was intercepted by.
Norm Newell for Skule. BUI Hor-
ton's pass was caught by Fr-ed
Smale for a first down. Then came
the first real break of the game
for the Engineers, A beautiful six-
ty-yard boot by Horton was fumbl-
ed and Skule recovered on the
thirty from where Horton hoisted
a high spiral into touch-in-goal
for a single.
. Taking possession on the forty
Dents tried a long pass by O'Con-
nor and then had one intercepted.
long Skule toss was also inter-
cepted. On the fhrst play Wall took
a liand-off from Gilbert and broke
off-tackle for fifteen yards and a
first down. On the play Skule's
Bruce Day who had been playing
a good game was hurt making the
tackle and carried off on stretcher.
Dents elected to run the ball on
third down and Skule held. This
was the real turning point.
Horton threw two passes in suc-
cession to Newell and Smale to take
play to the one yasd. hne. On sec-
ond down Ollie Bablrad went across
for the major. Pete Bannister's pass
to Smale off a fake placement was
good for the extra point. This end
,ed tbe Dents' hopes and the game
ended a few plays later.
Both teams came up with ter-
jlfic performanfies along the line.
Bob Varey and Fred Spratt were
partioularly outstanding for the
winning Skulwnen. Wall and Gil-
bert played well in a losing game.

Although Vai'sity teams managed
to tie the Mustangs on their home
ground In 1937 and 1947. the Blues
have not come home from Western
with a win since the championship
year of 1936. With practically all
hope of retaining the Yates hard-
ware gone for the Metrasmen, they
will be gunning to save face by up-
setting the Blues on their trip to-
wards the championship.
Coach Bob Masterson is as wor-
ried about this game as he has
been about any during the season,
even though he has a couple of new
plays up his sleeve- to try on the
Mustangs, and hopes that a few new
defensive formations will be what
the doctor ordered as far as halting
the Mustang offensive Is concerned.
Bob Leeming and Jim Butler,
rookie guard with a broken hand,
along with centre Bay Yakasovitch,
who is bothered with an ai^le in-
jury are the three Blues who will
not see action tomorrow. Boy Mc-
Murtry, who saw some acUm
against the Gaels last week will fill
in at guard for the injured Butler.
Bob Garside, one of the Blues'
most potent defensive weapons this
season, will be back in action at his
left secondary spot after missing the
game last week. Bob Bumball, re-
covered from a bout with some
Sprained ribs, will play defensive

the line. Al Haig, whose injured

For this big game. Coach Ken- ■

both olfensively and defensively, as
that old nemesis, Mr. Injury Jinx
has forced three of the Interraeds
to view proceedings from the side-
lines, with A possible three more
players being forced out of the
game. Halfback Bob Kimaff, with
water on the knee, and ends Don
Smith suffering from a bad char-
ley horse and Ted Lansky with torn
ligaments in the ankle are the
Baby Blue stalwarts who will def-
initely be out of the game.
The doubtful starters are Cap-
tain Al George, Guard Don Matti-

MacKenzie's ailment is a pulled

sore shoulder.
Gerry Fltzhenry and Al Geekie
wil once again be at the quarter
spot, directing the team's passing
attack. The Blues attack has been
most successful through the air,
thanks to these players and the
sure fingers of the ends. As a mat-
ter of fact, so strong is ^eir pass-
ing, that most of the team's touch-
downs have been via the pass, route.
Although the Cotts were defeat-
ed at the hands of the Intermeds
the last time the teams met, the
scOTe was only 15-7 for the Blues,
and this was largely to the fact
that the Varsity seconds capital-
ized on numerous Western fumbles.
Coach Kennedy expects that the
Western -team will be vastly im-
[H'oved for this tilt, resulting in a
tough game for both squads.

As was supposed by most of those who speculate oi
these matters, McMaster's venture into the kick-'em-and-
clout-'em company of the ORFU was a short one. Ivor
Wynne, McMaster's athletic director, announced tht: othei
day that this year was his college's first and last in the
semi-pro league.
Wynne said that he didn't expect his team to win in
the bigger company, but he didn't like the idea of watching
college boys take the physical beating from older, tougher
opponents accustomed to what goes in semi-pro football. He
added that Windsor and Sarnia had agreed at the first of
the season that they would limit themselves to a couple of
imports this season. Beaches denied that any such agree-
ment had been made. However, that was how it started out
all right, and when Sarnia, with an all-CanadiSn team, start-
ed to pull away from the others right off the bat, Windsor
and Toronto brought in more imports.
McMaster won two decisive victories over the flounder-
ing Windsor Royals, and had a couple of close ones with
Beaches, but lost all their games with Beaches and Sarnia.
Nevertheless, Mel Hawkrigg, Marauders left halfback, won
the scoring championship with 70 points, including 13 touch-
downs, in spite of the fact that McMaster played only half
the number.of games the others did.
The purpose behind entering the ORFU was to get out
of Intermediate ball and show what they could do in Senior,
in the hope of gaining entry into the Senior Intercollejiiate
League, a project that has been close to JIac hearts for many
years. If anyone on our staff had told us three months
ago that McMaster would win one game in the ORFU, we
would have banished him to the denizens of Toike Oike.
The big difference between college and semi-pro ball, out-
side of the use of imports, is on the line. That extra two
or three years makes a bii? difference in the biff and hrmse
business.
Lacking a sixth team, the Intercoll league would have to
provide off days for one team ev^ry week if it let McMaster
in. Personally, we can't see anything wrong with that — it's
a long season. A fifth team would provide variety badly
needed in a four team league.

Alarmed by recent threats to free speech in American
Universities, our Canadian University Press Editor points
out some of the danger points and student reaction to them.
1
By RALPH WINTROB
Ungentle Art
Last Friday we wrote an editorial in which it was sug-
gested that undergraduates ought to be given a lesson in
"the gentle' art of raising hell". Students today often seem
unnecessarily prosaic and .lack the imagination which charac-
terized their illustrious predecessors.
In the past "week two events have occurred which might
question the validity of our judgment. One was the theft
of the Bracken trophy. The other was the defacing of
university buildings with paint.
Whoever took the Bracken Trophy showed the imagina-
tion and initiative that we had believed lacking on the
campus. Our so-called challenge to action backfired onto our
own laps. AVe were the victims of student ingenuity.
And the final touch of genius consisted in sending the
Trophy to The Manitoban — whose articles we have been
over-^eaTously reprinting. Or so the Trophy-takers seemed
to indicate.
The whole scheme involved clever planning and care-
ful execution. No harm resulted from the action. Nothing
was destroyed, no expenses were entailed.
While we on Canadian campi are dissipating our
energies worr7.ng about whether coeds are to be
allowed in the front door of the Arts Building or
whether we should adopt the prhiciple of an
exchange of Russian and Canadian students, a few '
big American universities are fighting to protect
free speech on their campi- Intellectual freedom
is slipping out from under them.
But more than that the American university
community is up against a profound question:
Where do we stand in relation to the democratic
principles of the right of the universities to seeic
truth? How many of these rights, guaranteed in
the Bill of Rights "primarily, can we give up or
suspend, temporarily for the sake of natipnal
security?
The last few weeks have seen further efforts to i
restrict free speech on various American campi.
In eacii case the question has descended to a
matter of people of dubious loyalty being permitted
to speak or else an open conflagration to prevent
Communists irom having a campus outlet. Yet
wjiere fear' of being labelled has conflicted with
the rights of a university to seek the truth, from
who.soever's lips it may come, students have taken
up the cudgels for right and truth.
The first such example occurred this year at
the University of California, seat of the contro-
versy over signmg a loyalty oath last year.
On the U. of C. campus there is already a ruling
that no political speeches may be held on the
campus unless both sides are represented. This
has been in force a long time. To get around it,
a tradition of long standing has grown up that
anyone who wants to spout politics sets up a
soapbox and a loudspeaker at one of two gates.
Sather or West, just outside the grounds and says
hi§ piece. It is the U. of C.*s Hyde Park.
Just before the present semester started the
Berkeley city council was asked to approve a
motion to ban soimd trucks, loudspeakers and
public meetings at various points in the city. The
reason: they were main traffic arteries and these
meetings, it was said, obstructed traffic. Two of
the places mentioned were, of course, Sather and
West Gate.
It did not take long for the issue to be set
before the students and action was forthcoming.
Nor did it take long for the issue to become tinged
with traces of subversity. Two prominent supporters
of the ordinances are actually prominent members
of the California staff. One is Prof. H. E. Stone,
Dean of Students.
When a motion was put before the Association
student council). Stone brought the Ir""^!
into the open. Said he: I aim to prevent J
tinged organizations from being alio^ei'SI
around the campus. "I have talked to
exclaimed, "who have had difficulty ij^ „^t]g!
because of the Sather Gate rallies
employers hear about the rallies and
pression that the university is:a bunch q/''
However, the council decided to spark ■ ■
to defeat the ordinances. Contact was i,
campus clubs, interviews were held to
"feeling of the students and-the campus j,."^
The Daily Californian, opened Its pages to
sions of opinion. Finally a spetial cominii,J
formed to organize the fight.
When the city council held an open

the result was an overwhelming majoiity m

passed a ruling recently that would

not think the students ought to hear, Thbfl

Thus when it comes to politics, 25.000 studeSI
be spoon-fed with what the president thinhjl
little minds should absorb. The authorities uj
even to hear a presentation of the objectioni

"And while occurrences like this take pi^l
over the United States." exclaimed Th( |f
'"Califorman, editorially, "the public is i
subjected to a lot of prattle concerning
job American universities musfc do in |
tomorrow's citizens."
Tlie United States has become the i
champion of freedom as the greatest ,
glorious democracy. But its greatness If^
about the edges with shoddiness as principij
sacrificed for so-called expediency. But J _
college students give an even shoddier lm[o

LOSEST GAME
GS - BLUES TIE
By MAL CRAWFORD
Western Mustangs came the closest of any team yet this season to a victory over
Varsity's undefeated Blues, as they held the first place Toronto squad to a 13-13 tie at
London Saturday. Though both of Western's touchdowns were scored on "breaks*' — a
Varsity fumble, 'and a blocked kick that rolled out in the clear nowhere near .a Varsity
player, a Western victory was prevented only by the convert attempts being blocked or
partially blocked by end Al Brown.
The game was played in near-freezing weather
that made catching passes or pitch-outs difficult,
and the fieldHhough well-cleared of snow, did not
provide good footing. Western, depending entirely
on the single wing for their wide running plays,
was probably not handicapped as much by these
factors as Toronto, whose faster-breaking T end
plays depend on how quickly the backs and blockers
can get out wide, and the wet ground made this
kind of tough.
Varsity was running well through the line, as
Oneschuk, Bewley and MacFarlane clipped off big
gams on traps and quick-openers after taking
hand-offs from Alex Lawson. Their end sweeps
were not as effective. Mustang ends Beatty and
McNichol broke many of them up on the line of
scrimmage.
' Even at that, the Blues outgained -the Mustangs
on the ground. The starting trio of ball carriers.
MacFarlane, Bewley and, Oneschuk, gained nearly
200 yards net amongst them. Bill MacFarlane
played his best game of the season as he racked
up a total of 78 yards net from scrimmage. Ones-
chuk was hurt near the end of the second quarter,
and Bewley hurt his shoulder again at the start of
the second half, so neither was able to play more
than half the game. Bob Garside, who was the
best man on the field defensively, went weU in
Oneschuk's place offensively, his first chance this
year to carry the ball with any regularity, and
Bob Rumball, after an absence of several weeks
due to injury, took over for Bewley.
The Mustanirs behaved like they owned the park
(?) in the first period, holdhig the Blues deep In
their own territory as fullbacks G\no Fracas and
Jacques Belec, and left half Bob Smith smashed
off and inside the Varsity tackles for repeated
gains. All they could get though was a single poUit
kicked by Humberslde grad Bud Obal.
Then Varsity started to roll. Pushed back to their
own end. Western fumbled a short kick on their
26 and Rumball recovered. In five plays, Bewley
was over for a touchdown.
But Varsity, whose backs lost the ball five times
on fumbles, were too gentlemanly to take such a
gift without returning it. MacFarlane fumbled on
his 30 and Murray Henderson ran to the 14 with
it, carrying over himself five plays later. Al Brown
blocked the convert attempt.
At the end of the third period, Varsity put on
one of the scoring drives that they have become
famous for this year about once a game. Obal had
kicked two singles to put Western ahead 8-7, and
Jim Carrol, hitting off Varsity's left tackle frctn
a single wing power play almost every play, had
been drivhig the Blues back into their own end.
From the 25, RumbaU, Adams and Dale drove all
the way to a TD, Dale carrying around end for the
score.
A blocked kick by McNichol bounded into the
clear on Varsity's 30 early in the fourth and
Beatty, right end, who incidentally played a great
game there after being switched from the back-
field, got it and ran uiunolested into the end zone.
Brown deflected the ball on the convert attempt
and the score was tied.
Western drove back to Varsity's 30 on ground
plays with three minutes to go.

As a result of a directive from
the Executive Committee of the
Students' Admirustrative Council,
Blue and White Society plans for
a pep rally next Friday night have
had to be cancelled.
This was only part ot the pro-
gram undertaken at a special meet-
ing held last Friday, in an effort
to avoid a continuance of last
week's hooliganism on the campus.
A special committee, including
Uic president, vice - president,
finance commissioner, faculty rep-
resentatives, and secretary-treas-
urer of the SAC. has been set up
to investigate the whole situation.
The first duly of the new com-
mittee will be "to attempt to get
to the bottom of the sign paintuig
episode " slated SAC President Syd
Wax. Investigations are scheduled
to begin today.
Ail persons who know anything
ot the situation or ot the people
involved are being asked by the
committee to get in touch with
the SAC office in Hart House,
either by phone or In person, wax
emphasized that the names of
those people who possessed any in-
formation concerning the ewjnt
woi/ld be treated in the utmost con-
fidence by the Committee.
Allhough the immcdl^le object
of the newly formed Committee
was to investigate last Wednesday
night's vandalism, a long term
Dioiect was also envisioned. Tlie
Secondary aim of (he Committee
would be to study mob psychology
and make a positive effort to pre-
vent such- occurrences Ui the fu-
ture Concern was expressed br
those at Friday's meeting over th«
present spirit ot rowdyism which
seemed to be infecting the campus.
Aside from cancelling the pap
rally which seemed advisable to
the 'committee under the circum-
stances, positive measures wer«
taken to avoid retaliatory actionj
by the colleges concerned.
Better police protection of uni-
versity grounds was planned for
over the weekend. In addltlofl to
this, the presidents of the collegej
affected by the Incident were asked
lo do all they could to prevent anr
retaliation by members of their
faculties.
A letter explaining the actions
being taken by the Students' Ad-
ministrative Council was sent to
the CAPUT whose regular meeting
was scheduled for Friday after-
noon.
Presidents ot the UC and En-
gineering student governments. th«
vice-president. finance commis-
sioner, secretary-treasurers and

tended the emergency meetms

sulted in the cancellation of Hi»

The Toronto Argonauts won their

that the tarpaulin does not belong

It has been rumoured on the
campus recently that the students
in Physical and Occupational Ther.
epy are to have their course's name
changed to Occupational and Phys-
ical Therapy. A group of these stu-
dents, when iniormed of the rum-
our, expressed amazement. They
couldn't imderstand why it would
even be considered.
"Yon can't pronounce the name
to short form," one girl said. None
of them objected to being called
POTS. It's distinctive, they say-
like Sltule— an easy name to
member and pronounce.
According to Miss F. Laidlaw, the
Secretary of P and OT, no sucli
change has actually been contem-
plated. In June of this year the
Benate gave official approval to the
name, Division of Physical and Oc-
cupational Therapy in the Faculty

petition would have to be sent
through Dean MacParlane of the
BB^culty ol Medicine, then to the
Faculty Council and finally to the
ISenate.
their blanliets, in preference to the
cold, snowy benches. Others had
blankets over their knees in the
traditional manner. Blankets were
worn as -stoles over the shoulders.
(Little Memorial Stadium is decid-
edly windswept).- The final varia-
tion on this theme was an Indian-
style arrangement with a plaid
blanket wrapped around the head
and shoulders and a tweeper peek-
ing forth. ^ ^ ,
A new use has been found for
Tweepers! One of the cheerleaders
says that they made showy ear-
muffs. He admitted that these un-
provided ear-muffs were not wind
proof but that they were in the
spirit of a rugby weekend.
The Varsity band, particularly the
brass section, were hampered by the
cold weather. After the first quar-
ter the keys on their instruments
froze. The cheerleaders did cart-
wheels on every possible occasion,
either out of enthusiasm or in order
to restore their circulation.
Blue and White policy announced
last week regarding cheering injur-
ed players from the field was well
received. Cheer-leaders said this was
on of the most enthusiastic crowds
seen this season,
Santa Clans came to town a little
early. In his well-ltnown red and
white outfit he shook hands with
as many of his admirers as poS'
sible. Between St. Nick, "Jingle
Bells" and the snow, several befud-
dled fans wondered if they had ex-
perienced a lost month or two and
it were now Cliristmas.
Even though it was the mardi-
gras weekend and a time lor re-
joicing some sharp characters kept
their noses to the grindstone. A blue
and white "vote Liberal" sign was
hoisted near the score board.
One sensible cheer-leader from
Western wore slacks in place of the
usual short skirt. Another did cart-
wheels in snow boots, and very well
too.
A fire at half-Umc on the field
served to warm as many of the
spectators as could gather near it.
It was a very short fire though,
newspapers don't burn for very long,
but Satui-day afternoon every pos-
sible warming method was tried.

Brock Hammond denied at a Uni-

recently that drinking had been re-
sponsible for the failure of the
Western band to appear at half-
time of Uie Western-Toronto foot-
ball game in Varsity Stadium.
He said that numerous factors
made a half-time appearance i
desirable. The decision was his own,
he said.
The main reason for the affair
was the late arrival of the band m
Toronto. Hammond pointed out
that there was not time for a pre^

He admitted that two bEind mem-
bers had been drinking but denied

Dr. Harold M. Cassidy, director
of the School of Social Work, died
Friday after being seriously ill
for more than a month. Funeral
services were held in Convocation
Hall on Saturday afternoon with
six staff members of the School
of Social Work serving as active
pallbearers.
In paying tribute to Dr. Cassidy,
President Sidney Smith said that
his leadership was recognized in
the field of socia,l work not only
throughout Canada but In the Unit-
ed States and by the United Na-
tions.
Dr. Cassidy bad been on the
Staffs of the Universities of Cali-
fornia and his native British Co-
lumbia as well as being Director
for the United Nations Relief and
Rehabilitation Administration in
1945.
He first came to the University
of Toronto in 1929 as assistant pro-
cessor of Social Science and was
here for a period of five years
In 1939 he studied under a Rock-
efeller fellowship in the United
States and was then professor of
Social Welfare and Dean of the
School of Social Welfare at the
University of California for an-
other five year period.
Three times Dr, Cassidy gave
up positions in the United States

Montreal (Cap) — After three
days of canvassing last week the
Combined Charities Appeal at Mc-

$250 had been collected, or five
cents per student. However stu-
dents had contributed 526 pints of
blood to the Red Cross Blood Donor
Clinic, set up on the campus to
amplify the Charities appeal.
Money collected from the drive
goes to support city charities, dis-
tributed proportionately according
to the number of students of each
religious faith on the campus.
Twenty-five percent of the total
raised goes to the International
Student Service to " aid students
abroad.
Besides contributions from per-

Saturday's football game and other

was unthinkable to him that ho
should spare himself In any way
in the high service to which his
life was devoted.
"His standards of professional
education was high. His admin-
istration was based on the con-
cept that goodwill and good in-
tentions, even when combined
with practical experience, are in-
sufficient qualifications for a so-
cial worker. To him the worthy
member of that calUng was a per-
son well grounded in the elements
of the humanities and social sci-
ences ; one who apprehends the
social, economic and pohtical forc-
es that affect the lives of "men,
and who by intensive study and in-
vestigation sees how these forces
could be focussed on the solution
of vital problems. He had a unique
capacity to relate the theoretical
studies of the classroom to the
realities of a developing society.
"He was one of the pioneers in
Canada in increasing the prestiga
of the social worker, and in demon-
strating the need for private and
pubhc agencies to call upon spe-
cialists in this field of endeavors
for the common weal.
"His untimely passing is a loss
to Canada: and nowhere will Harry
Cassidy be mourned more deeply
and sincerely than in the Univer-
sity of Toronto."
It was requested by the family
that no flowers be sent and that
memorial contributions be directed

Winnipeg
Winnipee: (CUP)— The council
«I the University of Manitoba Stu-
dent Union refused to approve the
$550 fee owing to the National
Federation of Canadian Univer-
aity Students. The question will
be reviewed at the meeting of the
tTMSU council subject to a final
decision then. Reasons given by
Tbe Manitoban for tabling the fee
payment, which would curtail the
activities of NFCUS at Manitoba
as well as university participation
In the national student organiza-
tion, were a drastically smaller
budget this year and opposition to
NFCUS on the campus.
A total of S44M8 was approved at
the session. Described as an aus-
terity budget by treasurer Glen
McLeod he blamed a drop in en-
rollment for the decreased funds
available for UMSU activities.
Besides the NFCUS budget be-
ing tabled the proposed cut in the
music program budget principal-
ly the band led to the resignation
of the chairman of that committee.
Bill Renton, who also acts as band-
master. His request for an in-
creased honorarium of $100 was
opposed on the grounds he was
a student and entitled to no more
salary than any other subcommit-
tee head-
As a result of this action Renton
resigned as chairman and threat-
ened to take the band outside the
university with a sponsor an<J op-
erate it at a profit he felt sufe it
can make, he told the council.
Biggest slash was the refusal to
sanction oji expenditure of $1260
for a tape recorder and allied
equipment for the radio committee
to record its programs prior to
broadcasting. Manitoba students
operate their own broadcasting
station. The committee was left
with $100 deemed by the chairman
as necessary to carry out the
year's activities.

In presenting the NFCUS case
to the council Frank Muldoon,
chairman of Manitoba's External
Affairs Committee said that the
advantages gained by NFCUS
membership wer^ intangible.
"After listing: all the doubtful
benefits of belonging to NFCUS,"
commented The Manitoban editor-
ially, "Mr. Muldoon concluded that
at any rate one should not ask for
concrete, visible benefits from an'
organization such as NFCUS; that
such advantages as may be gained
from paying it the full levy of
twenty cents per student are not of
the tangible variety. It hardly
seems reasonable, in a tight year,
(when we are forced to cut the
budgets of local activities that
yield direct and obvious benefits
to those who pay for them) to force
students to pay out a substantial
sum of money to an organization
when they cannot see what- they
are getting."

Ottawa (CUP) — Blaming the
Carleton College administration
and last session's yearbook debt.
Student Council President Vic
Hryhorchuk told a Council meet-
ing here recently that Student As-
sociation finances are in a critical
condition.
He cited the College administra-
tion for refusing to pay for the
heating of the Student Union build-
ing this winter. Hryhorchuk al-
soljlamed an unusually large debt
accumulated by last session's year
book, the Raven.
The Council treasurer stated that
at least $800 was needed to see the
Council balance a minimum bud-
get. ■
That figure, she said, was bare-
ly enough to cover expenses. It
would be too small to allow the
Council funds with which to issue
grants to various clubs at the Col-
lege.
Outstanding bills to be paid by
the Council include a $140 debt
for decoration ^d maintenance of
the Union, and a $500 payment due
on the recently-completed exten-
sion. , '
This report follows a recent
statement at Carleton that some
student athletic activities are to
be cancelled this year due to lack
of funds.

footlights of the Museum Theatre.

Pop Concert
Pop Concert programs are a i
curiously mixed Jot — some good,
some not so good; some fresh, some '
hackneyed. Friday night's concert,
conducted by Sir Ernest MacMil-
lan, with Gladys Swarthout as
guest soloist, was a good example
of a program of popular classics
that mostly steefed away from the
too- familiar.
Miss Swarthout is primarily an
operatic singer, and it was almost
expected of her that she should
sing at least one number from
Carmen. She obliged with her
characteristically forceful rendi-
tion of the famous Habenera.
Even taken from its context this is
wonderfully dramatic music, and
no one could do it better justice
than did Miss Swarthout. In addi-
tion, she sang an aria from Hay-
dn's Orfeo, and a song by Niles
comiwsed recenlly, but in seven-
teenth-century style,
In her group accompanied by the
piano, Miss Swarthout proved her-
self a more subtle singer than she
appeared in her group with the

A campns humorist said last year that the skits about the traffic

hilled. Apparently there haven't been enough students killed yet as
"Hoskin" skits are back on the campus again tills year. The picture
was taken at the stadium show last week when the Scarlet and Gold
Revue cast brought back their routine. However, the proper authorities
are aware of the problem and. took action over the summer holidays,

The standard formations that the

there is a new formation for each
week. Tliey started off this year
with a snowflake, then a pinwheel
and finally a palm tree. At West-

into one which he calls "a revolv-

'T'."
Assisting Guthro is Wally Sulka,

her voice to better advantage. Her
best number in this group was a
traditional Spanish bolero — a
bright dance in rapid tempo, quite
different from Ravel's slow and
sombre measure.
The orchestral part of the pro-
gram . Included Saint-Saens' Bal-
let Suite from "Henry VIII". This
smug set of imitations of exotic
dances (including a Scottish one
aTTd an Irish one) was given a
splendid performance by the or-
chestra. As we have noted before,
the brass section has improved its
standard over that of previous
years, and this brightly orchestrat-
ed music demands good brass play-
ing.
The program concluded with a
performance of the familiar Italian
Caprice by Tchaikovsky, and Smet-
ana's Dance of the Comedians,
played as an encore. As is very fre-
quently the case, the familiarity of
the music made it possible for the
players to give the conduclor their
full attention, and the result was
a performance of great precision
and vivacity. Even very tired music
can sound good under such condi-
tions, and for once, it did.

St. Mike s Win 2-0
Foresters Downed
On Slippery Field
By FRANCIS QUINLAN
St. Mike's kept alive its faint hopes of making the Intra-
mural Rugby play-offs by edging Forestry 2-0 last Friday
on a snowy back campus. Two third quarter singles provided
the margin of victory, as the slippery field and wet ball,
along with several timely pass interceptions, impeded the
touchdown chances of both teams.
The Double Blue came close In line gave the Green a first down
the fii'st quarter when the Woods-
men almost lunibJed the ball away
on their own 10. They kicked on
the next play and St. Mike's took
Dver on the Forestry 35. Jack Mc-
Donald drove, lor lo yards, and Bull
Winters ripped off 10 more to put
the Mikemen In scoring position on
the 15. Joe Ryan's try for a field
goal was short and Waddell of
Forestry ran It back to the 13. The
Woodchoppers shift^?d Into high and
Itarted a march ot their own. Cros-
b«3 plunged for a first down, and
luarter Bill Earle handed the ball
pit to Waddell who galloped to his
own 40. Crosbie went for 10 more
before St. Mike's held and took
Dver. Marcus intercepted a Double
Blue pass just as title half ended.
Tlie third quarter saw the only
icoring in the game. Tlie first point
came after Winters ran a poor
Forestry boot back to the latter's
25. Two plays later Marcus was
rouged on a St. Mike's kick.
The men in blue added another
•ingle a few minutes later when a
Forestry kick from deep in their
own territory was nullified by a
penalty, and St. Mike's given the
ball. Burns hoofed it over the line
to give his team a 2-0 lead.
That ended the scoring in the
game but not the action. The Lum-
bermen came up with the biggest
ground -gaining play of the contest
■when, on their own 25. Whitcombe
tossed a short pass to McLellan who
lateraled to Marcus, and Eddie tip-
toed down the sideline stripe to the
Double Blue 40. Two smashes at the
on the 29, but the Forestry kicker
fumbled trying for a single, and
SMC recovered. The Foresters came
right back as Crosbie seized an
errant pass and lugged it back to
the 30. Foxy Clark caught a short
pass and burrowed to the 25, but St.
Mike's held and gained possession
of the ball. The ball changed hands
a few more times, as both teams
blundered around, unable to get
anywhere.
St. Mike^s finally escape! from,
their end of the field when Mark
■'Monster" Wiant flopped on a
Green bobble on the 30. McEtohald
and Winters carried the pigskin to
the centre stripe but were forced to
kick. The Timberteam attempted an
onside kick but something got foul-
ed up somewhere and SMC took
over on the former's 15. A penalty
set them gack 10 yards and they
lost 15 on the next play so they
finally got rid of the ball. Forestry
tried several passes with time run-
ning out but were imsuccessful.
The game ended with St. Mike's on
the long end of a 2-0 count.
Best for the victorious Mikemen
were McDonald, Winters, and
Burns, while Monster Wiant was
his rip-snorting self. Beaudry and
Corcoran stood out on the line.
Fleet-footed Eddie Marcus was tops
for the losers, with Earle, Clarke,
Crosbie, and Waddell also coming
up with good games. St. Mike's Jim
Coghlan turned in a flawless per-
formance, as he handled the water-
boy duties with a skill and dexterity
obviously born of long experience.

By BRUCS NOBTH
The Intermediate footbalt Blues defeated the Western coits iz-i last rmaay aite., I
at Varsity Stadium to win their first Intercollegiate championship since 1933. The ?j
was closer than the score indicates as the Blues didn't score their second touchdown l
the final minutes of the game via Don Fawcett's 105 yard gallop. ""i
Western came close to tying it up early in the second half when Colt end Ross sJ
picked up Ed Ksiazec's fumble and waddled 65 yards to the Varsity 21. Beck had at 1 1
a 10-yard lead at the outset, but three Toronto tacklers caught up to him. The Baby JlJ
broke up the game when Hurley intercepted Thompson's pass and lateralled to Fawcett vl
went all the way from the Blue 5-yard line for the score.

Intercollegiate Soccer Blues ditto
their name every year on the
Blackwcod Trophy— Uie emblem of
superiority in the Wesern division
of the Intercollegiate loop.
The ditto macjiinc was at work
again on Friday, as the Big Blues
once more added their name to the
Blackwood 'Trophy by defeating
the U. of W.O. Mustangs 7-1. The
game played under ccnditions that
at best were diificult. presented a
fighting Western team, determined
to keep the margin of victory at its
lowest. Hie Blues had other ideas;
despite the wet, ,si:,3pery field and
freezing rain, the Blues played a
fast and bustling game.
Jose Atucha cpt-ncd the Blues
side of the ledger with a " well-
placed shot which provided no
chances for the Mustangji minder.
The opener was a shot in the arm.

INTERMEDIATE
Playing like a determined team,
and witii the sole exception of un-
necessary passing in front of the
goal, the Intermediate Soccer team
turned in another of their stellar
performances on Friday afternoon,
as they drubbed the University of
Western Ontario Colts.
Howard Asbourne and Al Bowles
were the successful forwards and
between them booted three goals
past a trying and game defence.
The^ game, characterized by
proved standards, started on a wet
and extremely hard field. The
Little Blues, after having handed
out a shut-out a week or so ago,
were extremely confident and soon
settled down to a spirited and vig-
orous attack on the Mustangs' de-
fence.
Play for the gfeater part of the
game was centred in Western's side
of the field, and quite often had
the appearance of an extremely
one-sided affair. Only the over-
doing of then: extremely machine-
like precisioned passing, the lack
of finishing and poor shooting on
the part of the forward line pre-
vented the Blues from adding sev-
eral more goals to the tally sheet.
WUh two games aeaitist Mc-
Master to go. and with an iinbrok-
en string of wins, the team looks
powerful and able enough to take
the Intermediate Loop.
Backed by the good fielding of
a steady team, Mary Crowe pitched
UC I's to a solid 14-2 Victory over
St. Mike's in the first game of a
best-of-three finals Friday. Though
UC lacked real power-hitters, they
kept up a steady baiTage of singles
topped by good base running to
■batter St. Mike's. The Saints' spir-
its were somewhat dampened right
at the outset, when their first three
batters went down in order in the
bottcm of the fu-st frame, and then
found themselves on the wrong end
of a disputed put-out in the sec-
ond.
It wasn't until the fifth inning
that^ St. Mike's showed some of
their usual drive by handing UC
three sti-atght outs. In the same,
inning, however, Edie Bogomolny
robbed the St. Mike's pitcher of a
beautiful hit with a sensational
catch deep in left field. Heather
Chipman played a good game at
short for UC, pulling in several
tricky flies, while Ruth Allor and
Nancy Prmieau played well for the
losers.
Both pitchers had off innin|:s in
which they filled the bases ' and
walked the fourth batter, but on
the whole, Betty Jane Eraser's
swift balls and excellent timing
couldn't be beaten. The big dif-
ference in the teams lay in St.'
Mike's inability to connect at bat.
Usually a hard-hitting team, Mary
Crowe's pitches were too much for
them ~ eventually they were
swinging at anything. Joanne
Smitli, SMC, was the only one
to connect with a solid hit for
either team. Tlie second game will
be played at 1:10 today in the
Trinity backfield.
Guard Al Geoi^e wtis easily the
standout on the Varsity " wingline.
He made more tackles than any
other man on the field, time after
time breaking up Western's off-
tackle smashes. Middle Alex Macklin
also came up with a good defensive
effort. Bob Digby blocked two Wes-
tern kicks in a row although it
wasn't etitirely his fault. Both times
the ball went off Thompson's toe
straight into the Varsity line and
hit Digby. Western recovered each
time although they lost the ball on
the latter play.
The Baby Blues bad a big edge
in passing. Quarterbacks Al Geekie
and Gerry Fitzhenry completed 9
out of 19 while Western clicked for
only 3 out of 18. It was end "Nobby"
Milne who caught the majority of
the Varsity tosses. He and Dan Nel-
son also bottled up the Western
backs time, and again before they
could make any decent runbacks of
Burley's kicks.
The first Blue touchdown was set
up early in the first quarter when
Moslak fumbled Buley's kick on his
own eight yard line arid I>an Nel-
son recovered. Hurley was
or no feain and then PitaL— ■
threw a pro pass to Ksiazel; rU
to the Western three. Buriey l
the ball again and this time
ried over but fumbled and nJ'
fell on it for a rather cheap ^
jor. Pord converted. i'
Western failed to capitalize ^
after Swan made a sensational Jei-
ing catch of Getty's pa&;, fot
gain of forty yards to the Torocj

yards in three downs and lost i
ball. A little while later a
pass from the Varsity 47 was ciH^

THE VARSITY
SCIENCE NOTES
The Fly & Heredity
Behold the humble fruit-fly. It toils not neither does It spin, yet
every gene in its chromosomes Is numbered. From study of this
insect s cells has come much of our knowledge of heredity and genetics.
Chromosome granules in the cells are organized to form thread or
rod-like bodies colled chromosomes. These units are divided into
hjTJothetical particles called genes, many of which have been correlated
with certain features of the organism. Thus, if gene A is not present in
the germ cell, character A does not appear in the adult.
Two factors for each character are present hi each gene, a dominant
and a recessive one. The donUnant factor is the one which appears in
the adult, and the recessive one though not appearing may be trans-
mitted through the germ ceU to the offspring. In forming the se.-? cell,
the chromosomes are paired and divide into two halves. The dommant
factor forms the gene of one cell and the recessive becomes incorporated
into the other. Thus only one of a pair of contrasting characters can
bfr represented in a single germ cell.
Sex determination may be used as an example of the operation of
genes. Male body cells contain two sex factors, X and Y Female body
cells contam two X factors. Male germ cells are thus of two types
those containmg X and those containhig Y factors. All female geml
cells contain X factors. K male germ cell containmg the X fa^or
uniting with a famaJe cell therefore results in a female organism. A
male cell containing the Y factor unitmg with a f^ale cell results in
a male orgaiiism. This disgustingly scientific explanation of it aU
reminds me of a poem. - ^

Qala Weekend
For Carabins
On the Carabin Weekend, (Dec.
6, 7, 8, 9) the French-Canadian
visitors from the University of
Montreal and then- hosts will n;>t
have much time to sit on their
hands.
Thursday evening: (Dec. 6) The
Carabins will aiTive on the evening
train, and will be greeted at a
sherry party in the Buttery of
Trinity College.
Friday: (Dec. 7) In the morning
tlie visitors will go with their hosts
to casses, if they wish, or else
simply explore the campus, the sub-
way, or other points of mutual in-
terest. After lunch, eaten at their
hosts' habitual haunts, there will
be a discussion, arranged in a sort
of seminar style, on the aims and
methods of education here and in
Qiiebec. All interested students and
faculty are invited, in fact urged,
to come to this. It is always per
haps the most interesting and
valuable pai't of the weekend, where
all sorts of differences in outook
come to the fore and are discussed
in a friendly and illuminating way.
Afterwards, there will be cock-
tails and dinner; then in the even-
ing party of the kind usually de-
scribed as a Big Smash. It is ex-
pected to go on rather a long
time , . .
Saturday: (Dec. 8) In the morn-
ing the Carabms and their hosts,
dressed in their oldest Jeans and
slacks, will be taken in buses to a
lodge near Caledon Hills Farm.
They will spend the tnornhig and
early afternoon in various health-
ful pursuits, (including eating) ,
and then will take part in another
discussion, even more informal than
the one on Friday. Tlie evening wUl
be occupied with singing, square-
dancing, and mild rowdiness.
Sunday (Dec. 9) The visitors will
go to Mass, have dinner at the
homes of theh: hosts, and then go
to a farewell tea at Wymilwood.
This function also is open to the
entire university, and the same
open-armed invitation is extended.
Finally, visitors and hosts will
go to the station, and the Carabins
will be seen off with much noise
and shouting.

Political parties are the backbone of effective
Canadian democracy and- free elections are an
essential of that democracy. Parliaments and elec-
tions go together. For years Varsity has had Mock
Parliaments; now. at last, we get Mock Parliament
elections too. Political activity has. so far, been,
restricted to debates and Mock Parliaments, with
their relatively small number of participants'. Now
everyone will ha''^ a chance to express his
preference.
It is ridiculous fo say that elections have no place
hi university. Any person old enough and intelligent
enough to enter college should have some political
ideas 'and preferences. If our students, our future
leaders, are not interested enough in the working
of our democracy to participate, then the future of
democratic government is in jeopardy. It is likewise
preposterous to declare that elections and noisy
campaigns are out of keeping with university,
dignity. The goat-post fights, lavish display of bot-
tled hospitality and general hell-raising in the
student section at football games should dispel that
notion once and for all. Political campaigns are
one of the few occasions on which our elders let
their hair down and put on a show. Surelv they
do not have a monopoly on this.
True, these elections are not as important as the
real thing; neither is a lab experiment in the
preparation of hydrogen as momentous as the
original discovei-y. Elections are nothing new in
'Canada, but students can make mistakes and learn
here in a campus laboratory of democracy. We
have training for medicine, dentistry, the business
world and theology; why not for democracy?
On the campus the various parties compete in
placing their program before the students. They
hold meetings, introduce speakers, participate in
elections, discuss and develop party platforms, and
hold Mock Parliaments; but the student body has
never had a chance to pass judgment on these
groups. Now they will get that chance. Mock
Parliament elections have been called, the use of

Radio Coughs
Once again the Radio Committee, adopted child of the
Students' Administrative Council, has been causing its foster
parents a great deal of trouble. Ever since the Radio Work-
shop became part of the SAC family, confusion as to its
activities and plans has reigned in the minds of the Council.
Although the adoption was a magnanimous gesture and
undoubtedly saved the child from financial starvation, the
SAC assumed a greater problem than it knew how to handle.
In the past, the Radio Committee has simply been a
club where interested people worked at writing, acting and
radio production. They were luckier than most clubs for
finances (however inadequate) came from the SAC and the ■
SAC-appointed Chairman tended to be a figurehead who was . w,r,.-rr
out of touch with the actual work done by the Committee. OUR READERS WRITE
This year. Radio Chairman Doug Waite has been given
carte blanche by the SAC to reorganize the whole Committee
on a broader basis.
In bursts of rhetorical fire at last Wednesday's Council
meeting, it was decided that every attempt should be made
to make the SAC chairman leader in fact as well as in, name.
All previous appointments and plans were thrown overboard
and a completely new attempt at organization was begun.
There was much justification for this action.
Yet the old problems still remain. SAC representatives
who are chosen to fill the position of Radio Chairman year
after year, do not have the specialized knowledge and
experience necessary.
It has been suggested that the Radio Committee ought
to be formed hierarchically as are most clubs osi the campus,
and have an ex-officio representation on the SAC as do
The-Varsity and Torontonensis.
This would be one way of bringing roses back into the
Radio Committee's hollow cheeks — if we want to.
But' is there any reason for keeping the Radio Commit-
tee alive, or SAC-sponsored (which amounts to the same
Then there comes a gradual loosening ol

At present campus party politics spill over ^t,

for this is the Mock Parliament. The ideal n

Undeserved Critieiism
Editor, The Varsity
In view of the fact tliat thei

uals connected with the campus
that so much deserve a good
blasting criticism, I fail to un-
derstJind why you should single
out a group who have been so
efficient in carrying out their du-
Peace
Projects?
Editor, The Varsity:
T would like to Know why the
University Beace Council, dedi-
cated to such an important
, cause as the preservation of
thing) ? Possibly an organization which affects such a small peace, has not called a member-
minority of students should not be singled out for special - ship meeting long
favoritism by the SAC.
On the basis that radio is a mass communication me-
dium, therefore, in the interests of a vast number of student
listeners, the existence of a Radio Committee might be justi-
fied. Yet the more easily available and often used FM broad-
ties at the school for unjustified
criticism.
Your article re: tine' pohce on
duty passing gi-ad cars was en-
tirely unjustified. Had your re-
porter bothered to check with the
police and ask why the cai's were
waved on without asking for
proof of graduateship, the article
would never have been printed.
Where the man on duty knows
the driver of the car, is there any
need to ask for further proof?
In the years I spent at the
University, I never had oppor-
tunity to -find any group who
were as careful, courteous, and
efficient as the police; unless it
was the tuck shop staff. And if
you think this is any easy f'
you think wrong. Certainly It

casting is surely a minority communication
short, few students have FM sets.
Potentially the Kadio Committee could reach a far wider
number of students, both as participators and listeners.
Chairman Waite is in the process of doing just this. By
attempting to get in touch -with all those interested in radio
work and by carrying programs over CKEY (as was done
last year), the narrowness and cliquishness characteristic of
l)revious years may be avoided.
Yet the whole principle of SAC Chairmanship of a Com-
mittee which requires such specialized knowledge is a shaky
one. Even if this year's chairman is a smashing success
there is no assurance that we will have such luck next year.
What horrible midsummer sickness must any club suffer
If they have to wait till the autumn to be told who their
chairman will be. Some hierarchical succession would be
necessary to ensure any continuity of developmein, to club
interests.
Possibly we should hope that the racking organizational

articles in such popular maga-

us for storms that we could have

the floor, surrounded by countless
females. Soon the ritual began.
A slightly nervous soph read
short speech on tlie faults of her
Inferiors. I v/as informed that I
hadn't opened doors for the stu-
dents of upper years, I hadn't serv-
ed them at the table, and I hadn't

Then came my downfall, Roll was

good enough and my obviously
masculine voice caused a ripple of
laughter from the assembled

heard such comments as "let him

The scholars were part of the first

The discussion, over coffee and

quite satisfactorily, in spite of
noise from other tables, and one
student's manipulation of sugar-
cube "dice".
The group was forced out of the

The "Russian question" came up again yesterday on
the University campus. The entire issue of inviting Russian
students to Canada was discussed at a meeting of Political
Commission of the Student Christian Movement yesterday;
afternoon at Trinity College,
The. main dffflcuitles hnpUcit la
the Invitation issued by Denis
Lazure on behalf of the Canadian
student body were summarized
follows: (1) a tour would not de-
velop understanding because it
would be of too short duration. (3)
the expense Involved would ulH-
mately hit the student who can so
111 afford it, (3) political implica-
tions must be considered, (4) peiv
sonal danger that if the tour to<A
place NPCOS would split.
Possibility of a Russian-Cana-
dian student exchange was not
considered at the annual confer-
ence of National Federation of
Canadian tJnIversity Students held
at London In September. At aa
Ontario region NFCUS conference
held over the weekend Joan Pres-
ant, ni UC, local NFCUS chair-
man, was questioned about a pro-
posed exchange. This Is the first
time any mention of a student ex-
change had been made, she said.
A tour along the lines Indicated
at the conference this fall would
last for only four weeks. Miss Pres-
ant said. It was expected that tha
students coming to Canada would
be leaders who could be expected
to have fixed Idetvs. We would b«
able to give them an idea of Cana-
dian student life, but it would b*
impossible to furnish any under-
standhig of thougnts, alms and
ideals, she explained,
Shirley Eadicott, IV Vic. felt that
it might be more difficult to ar-
range such an exchange with tb«
USSR government. It Is aireadr
known that the Russian govern-
ment will permit a tour as was
outlined at the conference. A tour
would permit more students to
come than an exchaoce year sha
said.
Such a tour would contribute to
friendship rather than to under-
standing. It would be a beginning.
After this start towards better in-
ternational co-operation was mad*
it would be easier to evaluate th*
potentialities of a student exchango
plan, she continued.
An obaerver at the NFCUS con-
ference, Peter Alley, rv Trhilty,
gave his Impressions of why tbo
invitation extended to Russian stu-
dents was withdrawn: (1) personal
animosity towards Denis Lazure,
last year's chairman of the Interna,
tional activities Commission at
NFCUS who Issued the invitation;
(2) fear of public relations diffi-
culties in both general public reac-
tion to such an invitation; 0>
fear of disapproval by university
authorities; (4) financial difficul-
ties, (even though the motion pro-
posed specifically said that NFCUS
would not become financially to*
volved Alley said that NFCUS tiiM
and effort would be expended in
arranging the tour; (6> NPCUS
would be overextending Itself; It Is
too young an organisation to tm*

The following statement has been

Chairman. This statement refers
to remarks made at the SAC meet-
ing of October 31st, at which time
the Radio Committee came under
severe criticism.
"As chairman of the Radio Com'
mittee it is my duty to make radio
on the Varsity campus open to all
students who are interested:
(1) In learning the mechanics of.
radio production,
(2) In taking part in student
radio productions.
The Drama Group under the
direction of Mr. Harry Giles and
the Round Table Group under the
direction of Mr. Rocky Martino
were already in operation and do-
ing an excellent piece of work.
However I feit that I was not get-
ting to the ground floor in opera-
tions and that many interested
groups were not represented on the
committee. Therefore I asked that
the committee be re-organized to
give representation to Glee Clubs,
Musicales, and "Special Events",

the last year, radio on the campus
has been generally poorly support-
ed. This unhappy circumstance,
and its many misunderstandings,
were bequeathed to me by the SAC.
More unhappy misunderstandings
have led to statements which In-
volve the good faith of Mr. Giles
and Mr. Martino who themselves
admit to misunderstandings on
their part.
Therefore I hereby retract the
statements,
<1) . . . "these two gentlemen
are running the Radio Cocumittee
by themselves. When he caUs
meetings of the Radio Committee,
they either don't bother showing
up, or spend the time telling him
what they have done already,
without previously consulting him."
■ (2) Wax further charged that the
Martino and Giles were com-
mitting the SAC without author-
ity, and were using the Radio Com-
mittee to settle private feuds.
Mr. Wax acted on the basis of
the reports which were made to the
Executive Committee of the SAC
and therefore I feel responsible
for the statements he made.

Record Hour
Do you tire easily in dull lectures?
Are you tlie typical student whose
nerves are frayed after a long, hard
day filled with lectures? Your prob-
lems are solved.
Recently, I decided to track
down the rumors and went to bear
the Carnegie Record Collection.
Climbing three flights of stairs
in the Mechanical Building takes
a little effort but when I reached
the Faculty Common Room I was
more than rewarded. It wasn't only
the two-toned walls of soothing
green, the modern furnishings, the
friendly chatter around me or the
comfortable lounging chairs; you
can even- smoke there.
Best of all is the music. Students
of all years who enjoy and love
good music gather together to hear
well-loved favorites. For some rea-
son it was found that last year an
average of 20 students came to the
aU-Beethoven hours while the
average audience for other record
hours usually consists of about 15
students.
In the large selection given by the
640 records there is a wide range
of music to suit all tastes. To hear
your personal favorites you need
only to sign the request book. If
your request is not in the collec-
tion, providing there are enough
requests for it, the selection will be
bought out of the yearly grant of
fifty dollars.
Although many people expect to
find students from the Music
course to predominate in the audi-
ence, actually students from many
different faculties attend the con>
certs including Psychology, Anthro-
pology, and Physical and Occupa-
tional Therapy.
A grant is given each year by the
Carnegie Foundation, which do-
nated the collection, and out of this
money additions are made to the
collection and to the equipment
used to play the records. Last year
long-playing attachment was
bought for the record player in ad-
dition to two long-playing records.
The curator of the collection,
Mary Gemmell II UC, said that
most of tills your's grant wUl be
spent on long-playing records which
are unbreakable and easily stacked
In a small space. The record col.
lection grows year by year as
records are added to the coUeo,
tion.
Occasionally a student wishes ta
have his own records played to thi
Music Club. The guest speaijr
ProfesscHT E. A. Alcutt, at the open,
ing program illustrated his ls,kn

For Elections
Mock Parliament elections have
definitely been postponed till after
the Provincial election of Novem-
ber 22. This was the decision of
the Mock Parliament Committee
of the Political Science Club last
Friday when the Macdonald-Car-
tier Club decided to go into the
elections in spite of the fact that
last week they voted against hold-
ing them. However, they stipulat-
ed that they be postponed till af-
ter tiie main eleotlcm.
A week ago the Macdonald-Car-
tler Club voted against holding Uie
elections at all. In the meantime
several students interested in see-
ing that the Mock Parliament
elections be held banded togeth-
er and decided to form an inde-
pedent conservative club that
could fight the election. These
students included Vern Turner.

Campus Show
Vic Bob Revue
By JACK GRAY
It's difficult to know just what to say about this year's Vic Bob
Revue. It is a weU -organized, fast-paced show. It has good sets which
make a pleasant background and set a good atmosphere, obviously »
lot of work has gone into parts of it and those who present it ara
enjoying Uiemselves.
But as a show, and even bringing it down a level and saying as •
college show, it doesn't hang together.
While it is well paced, thne after time It hits the boards with a
resounding thump. Too often skits fade quietly out leaving a bewildered
audience. And whUe seme of the old traditional numbers (solo piano^
a chorus line) brought heavy applause. I looked in vam for anything
new, or different, or with that pleasant twist that college shows so
often produce. Most of the gags never reaUy lost the frost that cold
storage produces. The dances, whUe weU planned, were executed, and
the two-piano musical accompaniment, particularly in the OvertQre^
wafted me off to regions that I usually associate with beautiful ladies,
heavy drapes, soft lighting, and the Ontario Licensing Act.
Tiiis is the 79th annual production of the Vic Bob, which for the
first year has been combined with the now defunct Scarlet and Gold
Revue. It is not aU a vale of tears, what is good is not very mudi
above average, but does provide pleasant entertainment.
John Baylis' choreography for Murray's Flurries may owe somethina
to other, more famous, routines, but it was well planned. Unfortunately
the dancing dmn't give it a chance. Phelps Bell and Walt Stewart
(lyrics) combined in a Solemn Search For Knowledge to give a light-
hearted treatment of four years at coUege. with a marvellous punch
line about "not letttag your studies Interfere with your education."
It was well sung by Jack Burnett and Bom Loudon, even though they
seemed a bit nervous on opening night,
I liked Shakespearean Sketclies. and would have enjoyed it twic«
as much il it were half as long. Arthur Pennington and Debora Turn-
bull were outstanding here. Judy McGill's rendition of The Farmer^
Daughter was fun, but I didn't get the point of the number at all.
In a class by itself was Way Back Home, done by the Bob Reram
Chorus, directed by Fran Macdonald, The song is a good one, the lyric*
are bright, and the singing gave the song a chance, even though it
would be nice to see a few more male voices coming out of it.
The Joshua part of The Evolution of 'Music I enjoyed, but the rest
of that number just never managed to climb out of the pit.
The costumes were simple for the most part, colorful and effective.
The sets were very good, particularly in Murray's Flurries, Cannibal
Cnt-Ups, and hi The DownfaU of Dirty Dan.
There were two or three individual performances that we didn't sneal
In above that deserve mention: Lillian Mitchell as Ambrosia In Dirty
Dan, Bob Jackson who made it through a deal on eating m Hart House,
and an unscheduled (and very old) Smiling jack by George MicCowan.
The skits were quite unhappy. Ricky Arnold should learn to write
up to his climax, not down from It as he did In Doorstep Tcchniqae.
Writers of skits for college shows^ight look for humorous situation*
which (a) he outside college life and (b) do not Intimately involve
liquor, food and the slinky coUege gal (sex).
Producer Terry Laiwon and the large number of undergraduate*
who have presented the Vic Bob Revue liave done a good job, within
the very serious limitations of mediocre material and as yet undeveloped
talent. If it's any consolation I would remind them ttuit yesterday'*
newspapers are used tomorrow for wrapping fish. This newspaper, and
the reviews it carries, are no exception.

The elections had definitely
been set for the 15th of this
month. As a result of the post-
ponement the date is not definite
now. but notice of the new date
will be made public. Other activi-
ties such as the forums for the

Satisfying novels, books with an equal complement of intellectual

late tmth is debiitated by a lack of general moral energy. North
rican wiiters often seem so revolted with that lax creature, man,
they throw up their values in disgust and waste their talent in
ant but unconstructive description of the social weaknesses they,
iselves, are victims of. English writers have more mdividuality in
approach to present-day problems. One of their number has
itly published a fine and refreshing novel bearing out the English

Miss Roy was trying to appease
her critics by infusing her char-

Again, in her portrayal of chil-

How urgent are their shouts

Probably the most enjoyable
section of the novel deals with

skilfully opens his heart and

20th Century Unlimited, ed.
Bruce ByeviQ. Longman's Green.
1951, S4.25.
Under the guidance of Bruce
Blevin, the editorial writer of
the New Republic, a boolc of es-
says on the problems of our
time has been compiled. The
aim of this book, according to
Mr. Blevin, is to show that at-
though we are living in trouble-
some times, ail is not darlc. To
pi-ove his point, the editor pre-
sents articles by experts on the
socio - economic - politico - an-
thropological aspects of Amer-
ican life from 1900-50.
Elmer Davis, Leon Svirsky,
Robert Nathan. Phillip Murray,
and Clyde Kluckhohm give their
considered opinions on such
topics as world politics, the aiom.
trade unionism and the manners
and morals of Americans.
These eminent spokesmen make
a sincere attempt to analyze the
many factors which make Amer-
ica what it is today— what ever
that implies.
Mr. Blevin is a liberal who be-
heves that the problems that be-
set the U.S. can be solved by
mtelligent compromise. The dis-
appointment which the reader
experiences while reading aoth
Century Unlimited can be trac-
ed to the same cause which un-
derlies the immaturity of Amer-
ica today. That is. as usual,
while being earnest and honest,
these eminent writers have for-
gotten to scrutinize themselves
and have got lost with their
■pi-oblems'.
These problems are real prob-
lems, the solutions are real, but
only on the assumption that
America is basically 'a""'"^-
and has only a fey minor dltjl-
culties which can easily be solv-
ed What these writers fail to
realize is that U.S.A. is a coun-
try of contradictions and para-
doxes in the Ainencon philos-
ophy ot life. (e.g. a good man
can get ahead-only if white,
twenty-one and Protestant Anglo-
Saxon 1 And that these para-
doxes must be solved If Ameri-
Valcf
J. Mlddleton Murry . has been .
busy for the past thirty years in-
voking the ghost of his deceased
wife, Katherine Mansfield. The
publication this fall ot a ten dollar
tome of letters from the late Miss
Mansfield to Mr. Murry marks the
issue of just one more invitation
on the part of Murry for us to par-
take of her unpublished remains.
The presence of such a sensitive
soul undressed in public is em-
barrassing, yet we do not deny
that the critics as well as the
curious will be gratified by the
publication of these letters. If it is
possible for the critic to trace the
influence of the life-e;cperience of
a writer on the work he creates,
then he should be able to put his
finger on the reason why Kather-
ine Mansfield felt that her writ-
ing was too removed from her life.
She felt that her stories wer«
cramped birds in golden cages. Sb«
held out for herself the highest
standards o ftechnical perfection^
but tortured herself with questlona
which betray her awareness that
there was something missing, evett
when that kind o£ perfection wai
realized.
If we believe in the reality o£
the spiritual struggle of her la«fi
years and in the thought that sha
was well on her way to making her
life and her art one. then thes«
letters are of immense interest to
the critic. For it was Katherine
Mansfield's close miss on the aide
of life which makes her a lesse?
artist and accounts for the
■maliciousness' which so many
people object to in her shorj
stories.
Strange New World
Of Science Fiction
The House of Many Worlds* by
Sam Merwin, Jr. Doubleday, 1951,
52.75.
In his first science-fiction nov-
el, "The House of Many Worlds".
Sam Merwin, Jr. has turned out
as well-written a story as hi.s
earlier mystei-y thrillers. The plot
angle is rattier a trite one in
STP (sL'ientific-technological fic-
tion)—that of skipping lightly
from oui' world to other possible
"worlds" where liistorical events
take a different course, but Mer-
win treats it with skill and imag-
ination.
The story concerns a poetess-
journalist and photographer who
is an ex-pugilist and what hap-
pens when they visit a lonely
Flsrida key which is a transi-
tion spot from one to the other
of these co-e.\isfihg possible
"worlds". Here they are enlisted
as trouble-shooters to resolve the
difficulties in a world where the
South has gained the ascendant
in the United States and formed
a Columbian Republican — an oli-
garchy where, manufactui'ing in-
dustJies are suppressed and in-
ventive ability thwarted. They
also reach another "world" where
the om-ush of science and medi-
cine has cieated a population
pressure whose only solution is
space travel, and this is only
made possible by bringing the
knowledge from another possible
world which has it.
The plot as sketched above is
pretty standard fantasy but the
author's imaginative treatment
keeps it from degenerating to the
"space opera" of the dime thrill-
ers. The science fantasy, like the
whodunit, is a specialised type of
fiction ri-Hd in tlie past by only
a small and rather fanatic group
but lately, as recent films such as
"The Thing", "The Man FYom
Planet X", and "The Day the
Sun Stood Still" have shown, it is
a genre that is appealing to
more and more people. The field
is one that could mak-' a con-
siderable contribution to our pres-
ent technology -conscious civili-
zation and it is heartening to see
a novel like Merwin's — not a cla-:-
sic like ^ome of the early Brad-
bmy or Heinlein. but -one which,
if taken as indicative of the aver-
age quality of STP writing today
should presage a steady flow of
good reading for the fantasy fan.

Readers interested in the thia

introduction to his latest sheaf,

re-assure them that they were
better off when they left Cana-
dian Poetry where it Is generally
left — on the shelf. Nor do we
have any Justification In this in-
stance for challenging their de-
cision. The Mulgrave Road, un-
fortunately, is just one more
book of poems which just nearly
has something to say but not
quite. Tlie usual criticisms can
be levelled against it — the poe*
leans too heavily on local color
(the provincial background la
Nova Scotia) and trite universale
which meet on tixe fair-weather
ground of adequate but unin-
spired words.
Granted, we too. are just aa
uninspired In our appraisal of
these poems. We don't say that
they should never have been
published, because they do
emanate an atmosphere of sea
air and deadwood which many
will enjoy re-living who. are fa-
miliar with the east coast. We
can recommend them only on
the strength of this ^appeal
coupled with the hope that they
will serve as a reminder to those
who do care about Canadian
poetry, that It still exists, but ia
a long way off from attaining
any standard of excellence.

Can Force Playoff Saturday ,
Karpnk Incident
'I Coaches went into a frenzy, fans
threw snowballs and there ensued
one of the grandest rhubarbs in the
history of Canadian football when
Pete Karpuk of the Ottawa Rough-
riders leaped off the bench last
Saturday afternoon to tackle Ulys-
aes Curtis of the Arg(fe as he raced
toward an Important touchdown in
Ibe fourth quarter of the crucial
Sportswoman
game after Intercepting one of O'-
Malley's passes.
But Karpuk was not t^e first one
to pull a fool stunt (looking at the
incident now, It seems as if there
was a lot of horse sense in what
Karpuk did) that was not specifi-
cally covered by ihe rules. Years
ago in the States, a college team
came onto the field at half time
with a leather patch sewn to the
sweaters of all the backfieWers that
was the color and size of a regula-
tion football. Simply by crooking
their arms as if they were cradling
a ball, that team managed to thor-
oughly confxise the opposition. The
situation is now adequately covered
in Canadian rules.
The old helmet -noder-the- sweat-
er trick has been pulled so often
during the history of the game as
to be almost common-place. All the
backlielders take off their helmets
and put them under their sweaters.

By defeating the Queen's Gaels
19-2 last Saturday afternoon in
oMntieal, the McGill Redmen
strengthened their position as con-
tenders for tlie top place in the
Intercollegiate football picture for
the 1591 season. Played on a field
covered with more than three
inches of snow and in a blizzard
that raged all through the contest,
the game was tbe fourth victory in
a row for the Redmen.
Dawson TiUey was the leading
point-getter for the winners with
two majors, while Lionel! Qulnn
scored the remaining McGiU touch-
down. Other McGill scoring came
on a convert of the first touch-
down by Dave Tomlinson and three
rouges.
Queen's picked up their two
points when Geoff Crain was
rouged behind the McGill line and
when Ross McKelvey kicked to the
deadline for the Tricolor.
Only 8,000 shivering fans braved
the driving snow and the sub-
freezing temperatures to cheer on
their respective teams. Playing
conditions made the attack of
both teams ragged in spots, with
both quarterbacks sticking pretty
well to the ground. The field was
so covered with snow that it took
the head linesman three minutes
to find the Queen's 15 yard line
when they requested a measure on
contested McGill first down.

■ Top BToimd gainer in the West-

Western's Jim Can-ol. Carrol, a
•lim six-footer of 170 pounds, who
has missed most of the season due
to an injury, racked up a total of
81 yards in only ten tries. Varsity's
Bill lilacFarlane had the next best
total, 78 yards in 13 tries, but Bob
Dale had tbe best average, carry-
ing the ball ten yards per crack
on only four attempts.

them exchanges bis helmet for the
pigsllin and it is up to the other
team to figure out just who actual-
ly has the ball. This one is dealt
with in the rule book today.
Of coorge, the rules commission
will soon look after this latest prob-
lem and see that it never occurs
again, but the brave ref who hand-
ed down the on-tbe-spot decision
in last Saturday's game will prob-
ably go unheralded. In a lot of ways
he is a lucky stiff, fo:- had the
Argos not made that touchdown,
and had they lost the game on ac-
count of the ruling, he would un-
doubtedly have been the most un-
popular individual that football
circles have been graced with for
many a moon.
He had a toufh decision to make.
Had he given the Argos on auto-
matic touchdown, the Riders would
probably have walked off the field,
even though, in our estimation they
would have been far from justified
in doing so. A technical touchdown
would seem a fair penalty for ^ch
an infraction of the moral rules of
the game, but tlie final decision is
a matter for the law-making body
of the league,
Karpuk seems to have an almost
uncanny Intuition for getting him-
self in the spotlight, even if the
circumsbanoes are rather unusual
(his famous boob in tlie Grey Cup
final against the Caigary Stamps
three years ago) and lost weekend
was certainly no exception.
The win gave McGill a record
of 4 wins and a loss in league
play this season, their only defeat
coming at the hands of the Blues
in their first scheduled game of
the year. A win over the Blues this
coming weekend would put them
in first place by one point (the
Blues only get one point from their
tie game with the Mustangs this
weekend) and necessitate a play-
off with the Blues, If, however,
McGill fails to beat the Blues this
weekend, any title hopes wUl be
gone as far as the Redmen are
concerned.

win a league game this fall, and

Grads Return
To Help Haunt
"(/C Fotlies"
Back to haunt the PoUies! That
is the response of U.C. graduates
to the ticket sale for the annual
college show. Even as the under-
grads were urged to buy their tick-
ets, the U.C. Alumni was co-oper-
ating with the "Lit/' and the WUA
to bring out the graduates.
Irwin Paslcmack, a gradnate of
U.C. and at present a student at
Osgoode Hall, stepped in when di-
rector Victor Beube came down
with apendicitis, and is directing
the "Bitter Bulrushes" skit. Ben
Wise, last AVR director, and Billy
Preedman, last year's Poliles Di'
rector, are both working for the
show.

We know it's there, but we wish ta'iipus humor

Now, Children
Sometimes I think that it was easier In the oM
days. "Gosh! How easy It was then," I ponder.
Then I decide that in a few years, perhaps, the
gurge of life will settle down to a pleasant little
backwater where we can all fish, sleep, drink, or
die as we see fit. But try as I may, I can't justify
my carelessness In allowing myself to be lured away
from that quiet haven w-ience all little boys and
girls are lured Iquiet. junior), into this particular
eection of history. (Circa 1925 - 19??)
Perhaps things are just moving a little too fast
for me. As amatter of fact, anything over 80
seconds to the minute leaves me gasping for
breath. I hold seven National CJjampionshlps in
passing time slowly, and am known throughout
several counties as a man who never quite gets
where he wants. (What or who may also be sub-
stituted in place of where.) Whenever something
has to be done, the first thing you hear is, "Don't
let old Jotay do it!" As a matter of fact, this does
have its blessings, you see?
I think, perhaps, the thing which makes it more
difficult to get along than the tendency of modem
man to sleep only 10 seconds out of the minute, is
the insatiable desire of our employers for efficiency
and ability in the employee. In the old days, any
child who could tramp ten miles to school every
day. and chop a cord of wood before breakfast, was
assured of success, as long as he managed to sneak
into the city without a cent in his pocket. The
roads, however, were crowded with big, fat
capitalists all struggling to cram a dollar or two
into the grimy mitt of the embryo Horatio Alger,
and it became a battle of wits to pass their
defenses and into the big town. Then, if there
happened to be a spare comer around, and an old
newspaper or two blowing along the gutter, why
your fortune was made, provided you didn't try to
fight the thing too riiuch.
Now. however, it's no use just to stand on the
sidewalk, dressed in rags, waiting for someone to
offer you a railroad to run, or a chance to be
governor. I tried it and nothing happened. Actually,
it's just as well, since I doubt if I'd know what to
do with a railroad, even if somebody did offer
me one.
Tou can jee from this illustration, tj,
what capitalism and free enterprise haif"
us. They've filled all those big building
when you go downtown (well, you should
i»erhaps you're living in the country 5'
know It.) Witli efficiency and work, tlie ■
of one of these bee-hives is enough to"^^'"
any God-fearing young hopeful just i

things were going (hoping that sotnebM^'

ness to me) and I was appalled to see th

Alarme(3 by several instances of "mob violence." an(3 es-
pecially worketi up by the artist's (ielight job of All Saints'
Eve, the Executive Committee of the Students" A(iministra-
tive Council has taken a positive step in cancelling- Friday
nifirht's pep rally. ^
The question the campus is asking is "Wliy was the pep Qyj^ READERS WRITE
raTIy cancelled?" •
The Council's answer is that vandalism has occurre(3 to
an unprecedented degree on the campus this year. Specta-
tors at the Queen's game booed the cheerleaders when, fol-
lowinj^ unpublicized instructions from the Blue and White Editor, The varsity
Society, they failed to cheer an injured player when he was -we, the midersigned, strongly
carried from the field. At the Blue and White dance that
evening, over ?250 worth of decorations was torn down and
remove(i by exhilarated dance patrons.
The painting episode represented the climax to this
series of events, and it moved the SAC to positive action.
Thev decided that rather than leave the matter entirely up
to the Caput to settle, they would show that the student
body of the University was concerned over the vandalism
that had occurred. They wanted to guide their own flock
when it strayed from the fold.
But is it not a rather slight thread of reasoning that
connects the recent episodes of vandalism and a pep rally?
We are beginning to feel that we are little children. We have
been naughty and refused to eat our vegetables, and so we
cannot have our ice cream.

Editor, The Varsity:
When Macbeth cried, "Naught's

pleading the case of the poor
Varsity students who pay ex-
horbitant fees for the privilege

as a pep rally were to offer competition. The Co-ordinating ^j^^^^ ^^^^^^ ^^^^^ ^^^i,^
Committee of the Council had already cleared the night tor used?
the Follies.
But a discussion and vote at the last Council meeting
sTiowed a ma.iority in favor of holding a pep rally. The
Council did this for well-considered reasons.
But the Executive Committee of the Council said nay.
Are its members not being a little dictatorial in this step?
A pep rally would rouse spirits and direct them in a way
that would end, not in destruction, but in the healthy col-
lege enthusiasm whose passing old-timers so much regret.
The Council has got itself concerned over "mob violence"
and "hooliganism." and is brushing up on its mob psychology.
But we feel that this year's events indicate no special cause
for alarm.
The booing of the cheerleaders was, under the circum-
etances, the perfectly natural action of a football audience,
whose only intention in attending football games is to make
itself heard. The football audience boos the team wJien it
fails to measure up to standards; it boos the referees when
St disagrees with their decisions ; if a dog is running up the
field and trips, man's best friend gets booed. Then why not
boo the cheerleaders when they don't live up to expectations.
The removal of decorations from Hart House dances is
something so common in practice that it is almost a tradi-
tion. Whatever is removable will be removed. Dance decora-
tions are regarded more in the light of souvenirs than as
private property, and this sort of stealth is almost sanction-
ed by society.
We feel that in its eagerness to act, the Executive Com-
mittee of the Council has made a tempest in a tea pot.
There is a tired old platitude that says, if you treat
people like children, they will act like children. Perhaps the
reason the saying is so tired is because it has often been
tried, and found tru»
I am referring, in particular,
to a room .-n the UC tower,
where, any Monday morning.,
two dozen myopic students can
be seen straining Jour dozen (ap-
proximately) eyes, to read the
world's worst writing on the
world's worst blackboard.
It is too bad that the ill-famed
idiots who ruined the front of
UC did not apply their paint,
instead, to some UC slates. Then
perhaps something would be
done.
E^'en the misguided infants
who infest the south part of the
campus deserve better than thisl
And again Macbeth says, re
installation of new slates:
If 'twere done when 'tis ^one.
Then 'twere better it were done

We would question whether the
Pep Rally would have been can-
celled if the Bob Revue, a Trinity
play, or a St. Mike's rausicale had
been in Hart House Friday night
rather than the U.C. Follies.
The Varsity reported that
neither UC president took part in
the discussion at the executive
meeting, but we wonder if there
was an understanding before the
meeting which "fixed"' ttie vote.
We thought it rather significant
that no representatives were pres-
ent from the other three Arts col-
leges.
We feel that, if the Pep Rally
is being cancelled because of the
"vandalism episode" it Is unfair
of the executive to punish the en-
tire student body. But we also be-
lieve that the true reason for the
cancellation may be that it con-
flicts with the Follies.
If the executive feels that it Is
reasonable to cancel an All-Var-
sity function which ll.OOO may
enjoy, in order that perhaps one
hundred more tickets may be sold
to the UC Follies, an affair which
concerns only U.C. why don't they
say so directly and in plain lan-
gUEige?
If the exective does
that university students cM''
have like adults and acce*
sponsibility for their o\vii
then the executive sliouId(
pretend to represent the sbl
body.
There are bound to be soffl
■dividuals in a conuiiunitj
11,000 who cannot control ti
selves, but the whole comM
should not be punished fori
actions.

Russia, a communistic
had allied with the west-
democracies (capitalists) in the
last war. and was doubtlessly com-
patible. George Atwell, as second
speaker for the affirmative, used
British government as an example
of compatibility.
Arguing for Pharmacy, Cliff
Klan claitued Russia's aid in the
last war was simply "political
strategy." "There are at least a
dozen countries allied against
communistic forces to the north
of Korea. This is not harmony!"
Klan said, Peter Yacempki, the
negative's second speaker intro-
duced the religious factor, claim-

of modem society and said it
was not compatible with com-
munism.

As In previous years the fair will feature booths from
faculties, games of clmnce, shooting galleries, roulette wheel'
games and even the Skule cannon. POTS are busy making canciv

Equally popular was the Medical Society's "outdoor Health clini"'
where everyone, especially beautiful co-eds, could obtain coinni^'^

patients. If anyone objected, they were carried away bodily by
coated internes wielding laquered femur bones. The School
taught undei^-aduates how to "beat the races" and Trinity made ino^'

It was decided last year to move the location of the Fair to ttu

THE DIG
Garbage Dump
Toronto ( CUP ) — "I don 't see
why any Indian would build his
village so far from Toronto — or
why he'd choose this Godforsaken
hilltop!" This and other bitter
comments typified the reaction
of the student archaeologist fac-
ing bis first dig.
The sixth annnal Student Ar-
chaeological Expedition, better
known as Dig, took place last
weekend. Friday's grey dawn
saw an estimated hundred under-
grads, grads and faculty, board-
ing buses for the Barker farm
north of Woodbridge. Upon arriv-
al each digger, armed with shovel
and trowel, wound his way up a
steep (and later extremely slip-
pery) slope onto a windy plateau.
This plateau was the site of an
Iroquois village of about 1570. To
the digger it looked like any other
cow-pasture, until he found, be-
neath the topsoil, evidence to the
contrary. The site was laid out
hi a grid of five-foot squares along
the brow of the hill. The slope of
the hill presumably constituted
the village refuse-dump— refuse
consisting of bones, pieces of pot-
tery, broken flint and bone tools,
flint chips, pipes, beads &nd oth-
er Iroquoian discards.

\usurance Plan
Uill A Prablem
Toronto (CUP)— In the coming months, this year's Student Council
I will be faced with the problem of a university-wide student insurance
I plan. The question of such a program was willed to them at the final
■ meeting of last year's Executive Comcnittee of the Students' Adminis-
|trative Council.
At that time all Insurance companies were asked to send in
Iplans for an accident and sickness insurance program covering the
|entire student body. Only two companies replied.
The most suitable of these provides for an Insurance plan with
5ald benefits for both hospitalization or home care. It would be effective
!y during the school term, not in the sianmer or Christmas vacations.
Maximum value of the policy would be $830. The total includes $420
|*or hospital room,- and the rest for X-rays, surgery, and doctor's fees.
The only Canadian oniverslty with such a scheme Is the University
^ Western Ontario. The figures seem to indicate that a veiy large
fteajority of payments are being made for injuries suffered in ath-
|letics, These Injuries are alieady covered here by the University Health
Service fee eveiy Toronto student pays.
I-ast spring the SAO Executive Committee decided that there was
t in the proposal but that it should have the approval of the en-
student body. It referred the matter to this year's Council for
Jfictioa.
'^'aior reason for the deferrment was the high cost of the premium,
r*lch would amount to $12.00 per student, It was felt that this was
5°" tnuch money. In consideration of the fee rise last summer. It was
^elt that most of the students were ah^ady covered by Blue Cross,
^^ne other such accident insurance program.

No Pep Rally After Train
From McGill Comes Friday
Toronto (CUP) — It was decided at the Blue and White Society's Open Meeting veatep.
Friday ?v?nW "tw f^"- instructions to disband after meeting the McGill train
r rmay evening. This decision was designed to prevent an impromptu Pep Rally, which the
meeting felt would be going against the order of the Students' Administrative Council

Glee Club
Toronto (CUP)— Due to a mix-
up regarding dates in Hart House,
the Blue and White Dance Satur-
day wiU highlight a concert by the
Rochester University Glee Club.
Some time ago the Hart House
Glee Club invited its Rochester
counterpart to visit this weekend.
However, the Blue and White had
already reserved the entire House
for its rugby dance. This left the
glee clubs stranded. So a com-
promise was reached.
As a result, the Rochester Club
will present a program In the
Great Hall during the evening, and
its members will receive free
dance tickets.
' Tickets to the dance are being
sold In Hart House lobby every
day from noon to 2 p.m. at $2.00
per couple.
The Rochester University Men'
Glee Club Is comprised of 45
"oarelully-selected voices" chosen
from a number of applicants.
Their prorram is varied to sat-
isfy every taste. In one recent
program they sang music of the
early Christian period. Bach,
madrigals, and Broadway mater-
ial. Polk songs, college medleys
and popular music balanced the
program.
Six orchestras will provide the
music for Saturday's dance. The
Women's Interfaculty Swimming
meet will be held in the pool as an
added feature. Sports enthusiasts
are warned, however, that the
meet starts at 7:30. before the
dance proper.

Station or to the Royal York Hotel, "in view of recent developments
on the campus." Jim Dooley, Head Blue and White Cheerleader said
that it was very difficult tor the cheerleaders to arouse enthusiasm
at the game in students who had spent the previous six days in peace-
ful lecture halls, but that he would not recommend leading excited
students anywhere where no organized activities had been planned,
as they would "find somethhig to do."
Dooley suggested that the SAC talie over direct control of Blue
and White activities "since they seem to icnow more about it." He said
he was not surprised t"hat the students were annoyed at the cancella-
tion of the Pep Rally.
Rose tcnuested permission to clarify the position of the Ut eneo-
utlye on the matter of the cancellation. He said that the executive
feels that It was unfortunate that the cancellation happened at thia
time, since everyone realizes that the Lit had done Its best on an SAO
level, to see that there would be no Pep Rally.
However, he said that once the motion had passed, the Lit had
■ <h-opped its obeictions to the Rally, and had started planning a pubUc-
ity campaign to take advantage of the Rally so that "it would have
been to their advantage if the Rally had been held."
Rose said that the Lit had approached no one to engineer the can-
cellation of the Ra^ly. and had "expressed its official msappoSL^^

Expert's Advice Collects Dust
Student Union Is Debate Topic
Toronto (CUP) — Four debaters
will try to decide Thursday whether
the University of Toronto needs a
•tudent union as soon as possible
when they speak at the debate be-
tog sponsored by the University ot
Toronto Debating Union in the
Wallberg Auditorium (Boom. 1035)
at 1 p.m.
Dave Rose, IV UC, and Al
Strauss, rv UC, will oppose the mo-
tion, while Mrs. Lois De Groot, IV
BPS, and Cliff Wilson. V Arch., will
■peak for the affirmative.
Strauss feels that it is "an in-
•ppropriate time for such a white
elephant." while Rose does not be-
lieve that the students would sup-
port the union if they realized how
the union is to be paid for and how
tt is to be financed. Tlie answer to
this, from Wilson, was that the stu-
dents will cross their bridges when
they come to them.
The proposed student union has
■been a favorite topic of debate for
a long time. Letter.s liave heen sent
to the editor of The Varsity for
over 40 year.s on the subject. How-
ever it was not imtil February, 1948,
that the Students' Administrative
Council unanimously approved
"Uie principle of a plan presented
to it for the building of a co-edu-
cational students' building as a
university war memorial." A stu-
dent union committee was formed
in 1949 and is still an SAC com-
mittee. At one time the committee
went so far as to have a definite
plan of administration and to have
sub«nitted what was considered to
be the minimum requirements for
a building. When the '49 commit-
tee left office they expressed hope
that the 1950-51 committee would
have as its sole object the formu-
lation of a plan to get the money.
Edgar Whiting, an expert'brought
from the United States to con-
sider the problem, decided that, the
Union should be built alongside
Hart House and that, it was the
responsibility of the administra-
tion "to provide adequate facili-
ties for extra-curricular activities
for all students" A sharp motion
from the University College Liter-
ary and Athletic Society opposed
the report as it believed that uni-
versity money had been spent to
provide information which has been
given repeatedly by The Varsity
for the past few years.

a fugue clearly on the piano, so
that all the voices can be heard is
something of an achievement par-

Roubakine played it with "the same

for the performer. No one should
be required to struggle agauist this
frustrating sort of handicap, and
the Hart House Music Committee
should see to it that this never oc-
currs again. A sudden cold snap is
no excuse: the instrument must be
in tune for the concert.

Kingston (CUP) — Queen's has of
ficially drofvped completely out of
the National Federation of Cana-
dian University Students on a mo
tion presented to the Alma Maler
Society (Queen's student council
by the budget and finance commit
tee at its last meeting.
High cost of membership and t
slim budget were the reasons given
by George Ainslee, cliairman of the
committee, who Introduced the mo
tion.
He added that the campus had
enough outside affiliation thiough
affiliation with the International
Student Service and the Interna
tional Relations Club.
There has been no evidence t<
show that NPCfUS has been suf-
ficiently useful to justify a twenty-
cent-per-student levy, he said.

cially a member of NPCUS because
of a short budget. At the annual

Changed
' Toronto (CUP) — The Meds H
Intramural football team has been
(Withdrawn Ircoi competition for
the rest of the season. This was an-
nounced yesterday after a special
meeting of the Football Standing
Committee. The Medsmen have
played three games so far this sea-
son and lost them aU by big scores.
It was decided to withdraw the
team in order to allow the injury
riddled senior squad to use the ^
player.s as substitutes, and also to
facilitate the completion of the
schedule by the end of next week.
1 As Monday's two games were
postponed, the Standing Commit,
tee also passed on a schedule re-
vision. Yesterday's Vic vs. UC tilt
went as scheduled and Monday's
BPS vs. Meds game will be played
this arternoon. Each team In Group
I will play twice next week to
xound out the schedule.
' Tlie Group H game between
Forestry and Trinity will be play-
ed Friday, and the Trinity vs. St.
Mike's contest originally scheduled
lor Thursday will not be played
until next week. If the Buttery'
Boys win this one they will clinch
ihe group title, and there Is a pos-
sibility that the schedule will not
be played out because of lack of
Itlme.
' The withdrawal of Meds II in
Group HI means that Jr. Skule
have clinched the championship

played between the little Engineers
and Dentistry and this will he

SPORTS PROFILE
I Toronto (CUP) — With the sea-
ton more than halt way complete,
the Intramural Soccer competition
presents an interesting picture.
Senior S.PS. must show a com-
plete reversal of form if they hope
,to retain the championship they
earned last year. U.C.'s squad on
itheir current form apepars as the
greater challenger though Knox
has a team that cannot be too
highly overrated, and the Buttery
Boys are a potentially dangerous
»quad. Senior Meds and Architec-
ture are not entirely out of the
picture, and should make the play-
offs an extremely interesting af-
Jair.
Group three has been reduced
to four teams as Victoria College's
tecond squad were forced to with-
(iraw having lost two games via the
llefauU route.
- Senior S.PS., Senior Meds, Vic
end U.C. have been severely weak-
ened this year as a result of their
contribution to the Intercollegiate
BQuads. Trinity "A" is a potentially
strong team and should be around
for a couple of years as quite a few
of their players are In their early
years.
The standard of soccer played
this year in the Intramural games
Is appreciably below that of last
year, while the Blues and the Inter-
mediates are playing better ball
than they did a year or so ago. A
little coaching from members of
both squads and if po^tsible from
their coaches would help.

Toronto (CUP)— Have you ever
)met an intercollegiate football
player? Well, I've met a few. Every-
one who watches tlie big teams in
action has wondered what those
men of iron are like.
They come in all shapes, all sizes,
and all kinds of naiures. but you'd
like AJ. That's big Al T'rown, 195 lbs.
and 6'3", but you wouldn't want to
meet a milder guy to talk to. Never-
theless Al has been a big sensation
at end this year.
He was eating dinner when I
went around to see him, and when
I told him I wanted to talk about
Al, he got embarrassed at once. But
we went over to the comer and he
began to tell me some of the little
things he thought were important.
How long have you played foot-
ball, Al?"
Seven years, I played tor North
Toronto in high school."
Al worked hii way up and in his
last year he played senior for them.
He played flying wing then. He told
me that he has never been on a
championship team, but that be
thought he would be soon. Looking
back on those days, he said that
the game he Uked best was a junior
game against Oakwood. North To-
ronto lost 7-6 on a blocked kick, but
it could have been anybody's game,
In those days Al Dancy and Eric
Jones played for the team,
Then Al came to the U. of T. He
tried out for end on the inter-
mediates, but he never played
game for them. Jack Gray got hurt
and Al went up. Prom then on he
was Gray's understudy. I asked him
how come he got moved to end and
he told me, "Well, I looked over
the back field and they looked
pretty good to me, so I went out for
end". Last year, as a first-string
end, he played an in and out year.
He got a bruised kidney, and was
out for a wltile. This year he has
been an outstanding end in the
league. In the last game he blocked
a convert, deflected another, caught
two impo:tant passes for a total
15 yards, and it was Al that picked
up that short kick-off and ran for
twenty yards.
"You've really had quite
Uiis year", I told him.
"Well ... I guess so."
Al got married at the end of
his first year. He's a big blond,
amiable-looking guy, and I guess it
54
AL BROWN
was inevitable that he's 21 and been
married for three years. He has a
daughter, two. and his family lives
with his wife's people. I asked him
how he ot along with his mother-
law, and he told me, "Oh, I get
along okay." That's Al.
Right now he is at O.C.E. He
graduated last year in PJIE. When
asked him what he would like
to do, he said he would like to
get a high school somewhere and
coach, especially football. He has
played evei-y sport, but he says he
likes football best. When he says I
like football better than any sport,
you see a sincerity in his eyes that
makes you Icnow how much more
those players feel on the field, than
^ny spectator can ever feel. I asked
him if he would like to go on and
play some more. I might, he said.
But football is in liis blood.
What was the moment you en-
joyed most, in football, Al?"
'Beating Western."
'Why Western?"
"They're smug, too sure of them-
selves. I guess they were on top
too long."
What did you think of the last
game? Wliat happened?"
"I thought we played a good game.
I think we should have won."
"How come "
"We've got a better team."
"How about McGill?"
"That was our toughest game.
They have a big team and a couple
of fast backs."
Al says all this In a mild reserved
voice. When he says something it's
short and direct, and rather than
having him tell you, you feel things
about him. You feel he's a fellow
you'd like to meet more often, you
feel how straightforward he is, and
how hard he'd play a game. You
feel how mild he could be and how
hard he could hit, all at once.
This year will be his last year
with Blues, and he would like to
be on a championship team.
WUl we beat McGill this week-
end,- Al?"
I think we will. We beat them
before."
And one thing about Al — he's
honest.

University bf Toronto.
Social Work is a two year set-up.
At the end of the first year the
soiccessful student gets a BSW de-
gree, at the end of the second, an
MSW. In order to gain admission
to proceed to a degree at the School
one must have a Bachelor's Degree!
so that it Is actuaUy a Graduate
School. But because the first year
student is proceeding to « Bachelor
of Social Work Degree, the Univer-
sity considers him an undergradu-
ate. It isn't till second year that the
Social Work student becomes a
member of Varsity's Graduate
School.
It's an accepted fact at most
Schools of Social Work that along
with lecture com-ses, a student
should do practical field work.
Those proceeding to degrees put in
400 hours per year of field work,

great deal of outside reading, and

student.
The first year student can choose
to "specialize" in one of two basic
social work methods — Case Work
or Group Work. In second year
there is a greater refinement. The
aim of the school is to prepare the
student for a highly important pro-
fession, the functions of which are
becoming increasingly central in
society.
There are 170 students registered
this year at the School — broken
down into sbc categories. There are
71 full-time BSWs and 4 part-time;
42 full-time MSWs and II part-
time. Then there are students who
don't have aU the entrance require-
ments, and until they do, cannot
quahfy for degrees. These people
are granted certificates and are
called Special Students, numbering
6 fuIUtlme and 36 part-time.
The University of Toronto School
of Social Work enjoys a fine repu-
tation. Its students come from righfi
across Canada, from the United
States, and even as far away aa
India .and Japan. Many are fresli
out of University, and others hava
had a wealth of experience in Social
Agencies.
Because they are graduate stu«
dents in a professional school. So-
cial Work students are serious about
their work. But for all their gravity,
they know how to enjoy themselves.
The gusto and enthusiasm with
which they went to work on their
Homeooming Week-end Float, which
won an honourable mention, is jus6
one incident.
The students are organized into
the Social Work Students' Associa-
tion which is represented on tha
Students' Administrative Council.
The Association works In close co-
operation with the faculty of tho
School. Last year it sponsored the
first National Conference ol Cana-
dian Social Work Students. It is also
the body that looks after student
parties. Irving Mann, a second year
student, is the president.

The Following is the Complete Text of a Report on the
NFCUS Conference held at London in September and was
received by The Varsity Yesterday Afternoon.
ortoon by Hugrt Nioio
Safe Icons
This Is a report of the Toronto delegation
on their ytand taken at the re-cent National
Conference of NFCUS on the question of the
Russian student delefation. The statement is
issued at the request of the editor-in-chief of
The Varsity. It would not be necess^y had
The Varsity fully and fairly reirorted the Con-
ference and subsequent Commission meetln^^ on
the campus.
The Varsity has indicated through its editorials
and cartoons that NFCUS is afraid of Russian
student visits to Canadian campi. NFCUS IS NOT
AGAINST RUSSIAN STUDENTS VISITING
CANADIAN UNIVERSITIES. Both NPOUS and
the 'TOronto deleg^ation feel that any contact be-
tween Canadian students and students from behind
the Iron Curtain is to be welcomed and encoui-aged.
The question of the Russian student tour is
only a small part of the NFCUS international
program. The "progressive and liberal outlook of
this program is to be observed In NFCUS' at-
tempt to prevent the last door closing on East-
West student relationships. In the near future
Canada's Union of Students will participate in a
conference which will attempt to reconcile the
rUS with the student unions of the Western World.
NFCUS is proceeding actively in many other
aspects of world student affairs — among them
the establishment of a Pan-American Union and
the support of ISS (WUS) international relief
programs. A complete report of the activities
of the International Affairs Commission of NFCUS
will appear in the near future in The Varsity. Also
the NFCUS policy will be aired in an open meet-
ing to be held on the campus this Thursday. Any-
one who would like to discuss these questions
further is cordially invited to attend.
IjCt us, then, consider the Russian student ques-
tion in relation to NPCUS activities as a whole.
The Varsity has abstracted the refusal of the Rus-
sian student invitation from the context of the
Conference. Moreover, it has suggested that To-
ronto's delegates voted against the principle of
Russian students visjting Canada. This was not
the problem with wlTich we were confronted.
We were faced with the question: Would we, as
the representatives of the 45,000 students of Canada
sponsor a brief visit of Russian students to the
Canadian Campi? Becaue the visit could last only
three or four weeks the Russians would not be able
to stay at any University more than a couple of
days. This type of tour precludes the possibility of
developing real friendship or understanding.
Neither the Canadiaris nor the Russians would be
able to develop any clear picture of the way of
life of the other group; nor would either be able
to make an approach toward clarifying differences
in ideas and ideals. A trip, which would only give
enough time for the two groups to look at each
other — as one might look at animals in a zoo — ■
promises little in the development of international
unity.
Serious doubts were raised too, as to whether
a hand-picked group, either of COMSOMOL stu-
dent leaders, or of cultural delegates would be able
to return to Russia and report through th? student
and public press, radio and other media u true
pictme of CSnadian life as they saw
The second major factor which we

Some pretty damning conclusions are drawn about the
younger generation in this week's issue of Time. Not only
are we gi-ave and fatalistic, gregarious and conventional, and
wanting in faith, but also we appear to lack, in Time's
opinion, the spirit of revolt which has characterized youth
in the past.
It would be very surprising indeed if a reforming zeal
eould survive the reactionary forces alive in society. A
strong desire for progress and change would testify to the
strength and health of our democracy. But Time is right, it
does not exist.
And why not? Partially it seems from the feeling of
aelf-satisfaction which permeates the North American con-
tinent. We are conscious of the fact that we are living in
the best of possible worlds — or could be.
The Great Russian Threat (and militarily it is a real
one) has undoubtedly intensified this feeling of satisfaction
with the status quo. Indeed, fear of communism has done
much to bring it about. Everyone wants to put his finger on
Our Way of Life to keep it from getting away; few realize
that this is the surest way of letting it escape.
What chance has a reformer, let alone a rebel, in a

McGill Approves Exchange
In Almost Unanimous Vote
Montreal (Special) — The Students' Society of McGill University voiced its overwhelm-
ing support of the proposed reciprocal visits between Canadian and Soviet Students yester-
day. It called on the National Federation of Canadian University Students to reconsider ita
negative decision on the exchange, at the same time reaffirming its "total opposition to
the aims and methods of Soviet Communism."

ful IV Meds student.
Of the more than five hundred
students who jammed the McGill
Union for the special meeting of
the Students' Society, only 12
people voted against the motion.
All classes were cancelled' so stu-
dents of McGill could attend the
special meeting which also dealt
with proposed changes in the ISS
constitution and the recent edict
banning coeds from using the front
entrance to the Arts building.
The Society also declared in its
motion "that the present tension
between nations cannot be alle-
viated unless a realistic attempt
to achieve mutual understanding
made by all people, particularly
students." The motion continued:
"We believe that an exchange of
student visits between Canada and
the Soviet Union would contribute
to this end (the relaxing of inter^
national tension both in itself and
as an indication to the students of
the world of our faith in demo-
cratic ideals and practise)."
John Scott, last year's editor of
the McGill Daily presented the mo-
tion to the meeting. He said that
the NFCUS should reconsider the
proposal because delegates who
voted against the proposal had now
forsaken the reasons
then for doing so.
Open Meeting
Today At 4
The international activities of
NFCUS (National Federation of
Canadian Univeraty Students)
will come under fire this after-
noon at an open meeting to be
held at 4 pjn. in Boom 6, Uni-
versity College. All students have
been asked to a**'-nd.
Highlight of the meeting is ex-
pected to lie a discussion of the
NFCUS withdrawal of an invi-
tation extended by Denis Lazure
to a group of Soviet students to
visit Canada. This invitation
was originally made by Lazure
(for NFCUS) at the annual con-
ference of the International
Union of Students in Warsaw
this summer. It was not ratified
when the Canadian student
union met at its annual confer-
ence in London this fall.
The Case ~ Pro and Con
These are the basic arguments which have come
Dp time and time again whenever discussion arises
on a decision to withdraw Lazure's invitation to
the Soviet students.
In their report (published yesterday) the Toronto
deiegates to the NFCUS conference in London
empliasized the tact that NFCUS is not against
Soviet students visiting Canadian universities.
Therefore the problem docs not seem to be inc
principle of Soviet visits, bnt merely whether or
not NFCUS acted rightly in its decision.
The motion which was defeated in London, and
for which NFCUS must be judged, la:
Resolved: (al That NFCUS, in co-operation with
Interested groups, attempt to brhig a delegation oC
Soviet students on the basis of international stu-
dent cultural relations to Canada,
(b) That no financial obligation _ be borne bf
NFCUS in connection with this project.

1 GOODWILL: This is the crux of the matter.
NFCUS is constantly speaking about its desire to co-
operate with students around the world It is even sending
a delegation to Europe next month to confer with the
CommuniS-dominated' International Union of Students
(lUS) But it has missed this big chance to show, in
practice, that it wants to meet Russian students^ And
it may be an embarrassing decision, when the NfCUh

To London
The whole question of Soviet stu-
dent visits to Canada started off a»
a side-issue of one of the' manyj-e-
ports presented at the annuEd
NFCUS conference in London last
September. But since then, it ha«
turned into a "cause celebre" which
rocking many a campus right
across the coimtry.
The wliole thing started in War-
saw, when Denis ijazure. on behalf
of the National Federation of Cana-
dian University Students, Invited a
group of Russian students to visit
Canada. A couple of days later, tho
Russians extended a similar Invita-
tion to a group of Canadian stu-
dents to tour the Soviet Union.
However, when Lazure flew back
to Canada to make tiis report, ho
found that NiPCUS wasnt hi favor
of such a visit. The annual con-
ference defeated his motion of in-
vitation 12-6.
Lazure was in Warsaw attendinc
the meeting of the International
Union of Students (lUS). as th«
Canadian student union observer.
He was not there with the approval
of the NPC?US executive, but only
with that of the President, Art
Mauro of Manitoba. His Job, sinc«
he was not accredited to the meet-
ing, was simply to report back to
the Canadian body.
The ideas ot a Soriet student
visit originally came to Lamm
from John Thomson, President
of the BHtish National Union of
Students. Tiie BNUS conducted
such an exchAUge of stadents
earlier this year, an exchange
wliich has lieen reported as quit*
successfuL
Lazure said that he wrote Mauro
about the possibilities of such a
plan being carried out in Canada*
When he received no answer, he de-
cided to act on his own.
Over lunch one day during the
Warsaw meeting, Lazure presented
his idea to one of tlie Soviet deJ&-
gation. Tlie next step was a meet-
ing with rus President Joseph
Grohnian , who received the plan
enthusiastically, and urged another
meeting with the Soviet delegation.
That meeting was held. Thre«
days later ttie Russians not only
said tliey would be happy to come,
but extended a similar invitation
to a Canadian delegation to virit
the Soviet Union.
It is expected that the proposal
was fh-st cleared with the Soviet
Government tlirough the Moscow
headquarters of the Soviet Anti-
Fascist Youth Committee (RussiaTI
national student union).
Under the proposed plan, the So-
viet delegation would tour Canadian
universities for three or four week*
Part of the group would be cultural
representatives, part would be stri-
dent leaders.
The Russians agreed to pay
their own way to and from Cana-
da by air. Travelling expense*
across the country would be cov-
ered by receipts from their cul-
tural performances in music and
baUet. In addiUon, the Biwsian
student union agreed to make up
any deficit.
"It was agreed that there were to
be no pubUc speeches of a political
nature," Lazure said. '-EverythinK
was to be strictly oa a student
ba&is.'*

Hotd 100th Meet
' October 10, 1951, maiked the csnd
of an era. At 10:30 pjn. on the day
the hundredth session of the Hart
House Debates Club was adjourned.
In the course of one hundred de-
fcates, the House acquired not only
tts honorable tradition, but also the
various accoutrements which make
debating today what it is.
Today U would be difficult to
imagine a debate room containing
only chairs between Its blank walls,
yet for the first five years, the De-
l)ates Room was not even graced by
the Speaker's Chair, which, accord-
ing to its donors, "embodies the au-
thority of the Speaker, and adds the
necessary dignity to this already
liignified hall."
The story of the chair is the story
of Henry Maurice Cody, one of the
founders of the club. He was one of
the main speakers at the second de-
bate held in Hart House, and in
1927 he had the distinction of being
the first member of the House to
oppose a Prime Minister. At that
time, Maurice Cody was also presi-
dent of the University College liiter-
ary and Athletic Society, and a
member of the Osgoode "SaM de-
bating team which won the inter-
collegiate shield.
His drowning in July 1937 un-
fortunately brought an end to a
promising career. In his memory.

of the hybridization and cultdvatlon
of orchids as a hol^y.
Following; a brief introduction of
the botany of the Orchidaceae, Dr.
Manske will give a short resume of
the history of their introduction and
cultivation. Hybridization and the

of attaining this end are described
In some detail.
Dr. Manske was associate research
chemist with the National Research
CouncU of Canada from 1930 to 1943
and was appointed to hid present
post as Director of Research of t^e

in 1943. Dr. Wa-nsV^ -will illustrate

House, "This later generation may
miss his atlrring rhetoric, but he
lives on in the glorious tradition he
helped to build. The outward ap-

Is still the same— the eternal search
for bnith, pursued in Uie face of
all dUficulties."
The chair, presented by the Rev.
Dr. H. J. Cody, then chairman of
the Board of Governors of the Uni-
versity, was designed by Mr. Henry
Sproatt, one of the architects of
Hart House. It was patterned after
the architectural design of the De-
bates Room, and carved from mature
and sturdy oak, an object of beauty
whose avowed purpose was to con-
nect the name of Maurice Cody for
all time with the debates of Hart

NOTICE
The Varsity is going to have a
party Friday night. There will be
no punch, champagne, lobster
sandwiches, or other vulgar re-,
freshments of this sort. Rather
we look upon this party as ah oc-,
casion to discuss the philosophy
of modem journalism.
All those who failed to attend the
news, makeup and reviewing lec-
tures, are especially urged to at-
tend. Even the enthusiasts who
did will be tolerated on Friday
night. However, this time there
will be a nominal charge for the
stimulating discussion which is ex-
pected.
Because we do not wish to have
any of the tutorials overcrowded,
those planning on attending are
requested to sign their names on
the Ust in The Varsity news office.
In this way, we will be able to
arrange a sufficient number of

London (CUP) — An overwhelm-

bers of the Liberal and Indepen-
dent opposition defeated a Pro-
gressive Conservative motion that
all pro-Communist acts be de-
clared an indictable offence at a
mock parliament held last week at
the University of Western Ontario.
In introducing his bill, the gov-
ernment leader drew attention to
the seditious literature published
by tJhe Labour Progressive Party
which was receiving criticism in
the House of Commons. He urged
that the Communist party was a
menace to the country and should
be outlawed.
Such action would take an im-
possibly large police force and
would in effect entail the setting
up o fa totalitarian state in Can-
ada, the speaker of the Liberal op-
position said.'
The leader of the CCP party told
the parliament that people should
not be condemned for exercising a
right that is in direct accord with
our heritage.
"It Is getting so anything re-
motely connected with freedom
means Communism," the Indepen-
dent party leader remarked.

The resolution that "Women

the debate. He then listed women's
motives for entering the Faculty of
Medicine, among them the desire
compete with the males. He
stated that many women get mar-
ried after completing their course,
and never use their knowledge;
whereas the men whose places they
took might have been able to make
a living in medicine. He also £aid
that the role of the woman is
housekeeping and reproduction,
and that a woman doctor lacks
feminine qualities.

speaking for the opposition, argued
that women doctors have saved
Uves and advanced the cause of
medicine, and that anyone possess-
ing the necessary qualities has a
right to be a doctor, whether that
person is male or female. He said
that women have always practised
medicine, and have never com-
pletely disaM«ared from the medi-
cal field. tt

Acadia Questions
Hazing Suspension
WoUevflle, N.S. (CUP)— Fresh-
men at Acadia escaped most of
the Initiation program planned for
them this year. After the activi-
ties ol the first evenlns. it was an-
nounced by the dean of men that
Jnitiation proceedings would be
suspended.
The announcement came as a
result of violations of initiation
rules Over - enthusiastic upper
classmen had depai-ted from the
approved Initiation plans, and had
led the pyjama-clad freshmen out
of bounds.
A poll of freshmen opinion, con-
aucted by the college newspaper,
showed that 85% disapproved of
the suspension. Moreover, sev-
eral students objected to the man-
ner in which the suspension was
carried out. No notification had
been given to the Students' Coun-
Watwn KlrkconeTl. president of
Acadia, explained the University's
stand. He pointed out that, whfle
a partial delegation of authority is
made to the Students' Council in
the realm ol student activities, fin-
al authority and legal responsibil-
ity for all students rests with the
Board of Governors. "The limita-
tions placed on initiation at Acadia
grow chiefly out of the need for
avoiding public Uability." he said.
In view of the existing circum-
stances, an editorial in the college
newspaper came out In favor of
abolishing initiation altogether.
Energy could then be directed to-
ward "a royal welcome for the
class of '56."

Comment by the more profound
of the downtown critics was that
this picture should have been
shown at a small art house, viz.,
the Towne Cinema, An audience [
pretending towards '■discrimina-
tion" would have received it much
better than the Ma and Pa Kettle
addicts of the Uptown.
The same sort of thini: seems to
have happened to TERESA. The
University Theatre has had many
adult films, but TERESA got the
bum's rush there. To see it or IN-
TRUDER IN THE DUST noW de-
mands careful watching of the
minute listings on the evening
movie pages. But in both ca-es,
the films are more than worth the
microscopic work.
TERESA is a subtle, searching
film. The subtlety and the deep
probing is due mainly to director
Fred Zinneman's intelligent touch
and taste. A weak yoimg boy (John
Ericson) liias post-army adjustment
problems. He has returned to his
New York. City tenement home
after service in Italy, confronting
his Hamlet-complex mother (Pa-
tricia Collinge) with an Italian war
bride. Teresa (Pier Angeli). Young
Philip Cass has a hell of a time
adjusting, and the film looks back
and around to find out why. When
informed of her pregnancy, the
jhild-like Teresa says to the doc-
tor. "But Philip is too young to
have a baby."
The' young Italian actress. Pier
Angeli, is a welcome and unique
addition to Hollywood's young
women. Her sensitive face and
alarmingly large and expressive
eyes will grip even the hardest of
student cynics — Fourth Year
men, for instance. What enhances
her beauty and personality is a
feeling of inherent maturity (per-
haps an Old World faculty) which
makes what she thinks and does
seem significant and real.
Jolm Ericson, a Broadway neo-
phyte, fits the role of Phillippo
well, with his likeness to Marlon
Brando effectively amended with a
weak mouth that Cass would have
had. Lending his Puckish face to
the proceedings is cartoonist-actor
Bill Mauldin.
The outstanding performance,
however, is by Broadway veteran
Patricia Collinge as a h
example of Phillip Wyiig."'^''!'''

Louis Armstrong
— An Appreciation
Louis Armstrong is the greatest
figure in the development of Jazz.
His Massey Hall concert last
Saturday was a real stinker. But
this is not so much a review as an
Appreciation of King Louis and
his two jazz instruments, the cor-
net/trumpet and voice.
Jazz is still an adolescent art.
Despite' the current doldrums, both
ill popular fashion and in bopo-
logical development, jazz is more
than the passing of a hit tune, or
the dead ashes of a cocktail-lounge
cigarette.
Unhke our highbrow jazz apos-
ties like Winthrop Sargeant or the
Europeans, Hugues Panassie and
Robert Goffin, a Jazz lover needs
no profound theories of jazz de-
velopment to boost him along.
Neither does he have to go along-
Ray Dudley
— Focalty of Music.
Bay Dudley, well-knowa young
Toronto pianist, will be playin?
for the Wednesday Afternoon
Series in Hart House next week.
As a member of the staff of the
Royal Conservatory of Masic, he
gives recitals in the Conserva-
tory, and he has also played in
the Music Amphitheatre at the
Canadian National Exhibition.
He Is especially noted for his
playing of the music of John
Beckwith and of other Toronto
composers. Besides modern works,
his program will include maslo
by Ravel and Schubert next week.
with our jazz radicals like Barry
Ulanov and other wi-iters who in-
sist on New Things and Modern
Music to maintain jazz's pace.
(The Stan Kenton frantic Inno-
vating is one result of this ap-
proach.)
Jazz is a motley thing. The snobs
among its midst have tried to
make cults of different chronologi-
cal phases. Thus the New Orleans
addicts. Or the Chicago early
swing fans. Or the big band swing
of the Goodman school. The pro-
gressive stuff of Kenton, Woody
Hermany, Boyd Raeburn, etc. Or
the bop of Charlie Parker and
Lennie Tristano. Or the "cool"
music of Stan Geta, (The newest
thing, you understand.)
The place of Armstrong In this
set of phases that the cults try to
stratify and preserve Is an inter-
esting one. His was a pioneering
sound, whether it be trumpet or
voice. What he says is simple and
pure in quality, there are no
pyrotechnics In his trumpet or
swoops in his voice. And yet when
his records are studied (and hap-
pily the new Armstrong boom has
resulted in re-releasing of scores
of hi.storic recordings), the steady
change in Armstrong can be
studied just in the way that of
Coleman Hawkins of the tenor
saxophone can be discerned. At
all times, Armstrong has been
vital to jazz.
The new Armstrong boom came
when he formed his All-Stars, a
small manageable group that in-
cluded pianist Earl Hines. a long-
time collaborator in jazz, clarinet-
l?t Barney Bigard and trombonist
Jack: Teagarden. For once in a
long while Armstrong was sur-
rounded by kindred spirits and the
All-Stars' contribution of old and
new tunes in a free-wheeling New
Orleans manner plus more mod-
ern overtones also proved to be
popular.
When the Armstrong AH-Stars
came along two years ago. there
were flashes of the brilliance dis-
played in the more durable archives
of the Town Hall Concert album.
Teagarden, too much of an indi-
vidualist to fit completely into the
All-Star music, nevertheless paired
with Armstrong on the singing of
Rocking Chair to excite and
satisfy both addict and bobby-
soxer. But it was the Louis art
with voice and trumpet on Ain't
Misbehaving and Pennies Prom
Heaven that made jazz heavea
possible on earth.
The All-Stars were concerned
then with jazz standards like Musk,
rat Ramble and Strutting With
Some Barbecue. And the pop tunes
singled out for Armstrong treat-
ment still had the enduring quali-
ties of I Surrender Dear or Con-
fessing.
Last Saturday, the Louis Arm-
strong group came to Toronto
again, flushed with commercial
success and European accolades.
Teagarden had left, so that Arm-
strong was now the solo star. The
audience was a crowd of 30isli
couples, many university students,
and groups of women. There were
very few strides and wolf cuu
around.
But the concert was a stinker.
The Armstrong voice was fine
and his style great in his first
vocal. Blueberry Hill. But that
trumpet which once sounded as if
it were the only way a trumpet
should be played sounded tired
and old. Not until the group clown-
ed with Twelfth Street Rag did the
concert take hold. (But the sight
of the dignified professional musi-
cian Barney Bigard doing a jitter-
bug jig was almost as vulgar as
the later antics of comedienne
Velma Middleton.)
This was an entertaining show:
"What showman Louis is!" was a
feminine cometnnt during Inter-
mission. It was not the musical
feast that many of us went to re-
ceive. The only old-time standard
was High Society used solely to
show off the Bigard clarinet lech,
nlque. And mast of the Armstrong
contributions were ephemeral Hit
Pa7ade tunes.
MusiraUy, Earl Hines was im-
pressive despite his use of the
same pattern whether of Tea F'or
Two or Honeysuckle Rose. But
Louis himself, the jazz great, spent
much of his time being the Per-
sonality Kid, MCing the show. He
should have sung Confessing or
I Can't Give You Anything But
Love instead.
And yet, after all was over, thera
is still the beer-glass comment:
"There's only one Louts Arm-
strong.*

TTiursdoy, November g
BLUES VS. AGGIES TODA'
Quarter
By BRUCE IWACDONAI/D
Unfortunate though it may be, it seems that when the
most important football games of the season roll around the
weather immediately determines to do its very worst. Any
one who saw the Argos and the Tiger-Cats slush their way
around Varsity Stadium yesterday will understand just what
the Blues and the Redmen wiU have to put up with this
Saturday unless old Sol makes a timely appearance today or
tomorrow.
This pre-winter stage of weather usually comes a little
too late to affect Intercollegiate footballers, but it sure hit
the nail on the head this fall as far as interference is
concerned.
The only thing that remains to be considered is how
such adverse playing conditions are going to • affect the
chances of the two teams, for now that the weatherman has
lowered the boom, there is nothing to do but accept his
yerdict.'
1 Although the Blues have been working hard up until
a couple of days ago to perfect a neglected pass attack, it
iwoukl appear that their reliance on a ground offensive will
stand them in good stead on a field like the one that will
probably be lying in the centre of Varsity Stadium this
Saturday. One of McGill's most potent weapons has been
a long pass. Even Nobby Wirkowski can't toss that ball
well when it weights twice as much as normal and is as
slippery as a greased pig.
The Blue did most of their ground-gaining in Montreal
on the quick opening plays that have proved so effective
for them aU season. Even on a wet field, those plays will go
if blockers can get enough traction to shove opposing line-
men out of the way even nomentarily. But the pitchout end
runs that Varsity has used to advantage this season wiU be
a pretty dangerous gamble on a field as slushy as the one
yesterday.
Of course, if the weather turns warm and sunny
there can be a lot of passing even from a comparatively wet
field underfoot. According to all reports though, the Redmen
have a lot more to offer than a pass attack and are a greatly
improved team in the offensive department over what they
were at the first of the season.
After watching the Yates Cup slip out of their grasp
last fall, the Redmen are in no frame of mind to lose it
again this season. The Blues have two chances to turn that
trick, but nothing would please us more than to see them do
it the first time out.

The University of Toronto In-

schedule at Varsity Stadium at

Varsity has already clinched the

two opposing coaches, the rule lim-
iting each team to di-ess 24 men
has been waived and both squads
will have 30 players in uniform.
Pitchiog Sportshoes
The snow and the rain curtailed
the Interfaculty sports somewhat
yesterday as all three soccer
games had to be called off. Games
were scheduled between Pre-med
end front campus.
It was hoped by officials of the
AttUetic Association that the back
campus could be cleared in time
far the scheduled SPS vs. Meds
game yesterday afternoon. Ar-
rangements were made with the
stadium to borrow the men and
equipment being used there to
clear the field for the Big Four
playoff.
Because the fields were cover-
ed with slush the ordinary trac-
tors were useless and a grader
with a 16 inch blade was borrow-
ed. This grader arrived late at
the stadium because of heavy
traffic in the city, and it wasn't
finished clearing the field there
until after 1:00. But by this time
It was therefore decided by a
committee of the Athletic Associa-
tion to leave both campi until next
Monday and let nature take its
course. If it remains cold over
the weekend, the snow can be
rolled and games will be played
on that surface. But if the tem-
perature rises, the fields will drain
by themselves leaving a damp but
clear surface for play next week
In either case every effort wil
be made to complete the schedules
in both the soccer and the foot-
ball. This is the worst weather
conditions encountered by the In-
tramural loop in its sixteen year
hi^ory, but with a good break
next week, everything should get
back to normal.
Injury Free
Varsity Team
Faces AAcGili
Coach Bob Masterson of the
Senior Blues said last night that
his team would go into the all-
important game against the McGill
Redmen this weekend compara-
tively free from injury. Although
several players suffered minor
hurts in the game against the
Mustangs last weekend, most of
them will be back in playing condi-
tion by Saturday.
Steve Oneschnck, who came out
of ttie game with a couple of sore
ribs last Saturday afternoon when
he ended up on the bottom of a
pUe of Mustangs, seems to be
pretty well recuperated. Bill Bew-
ley, who missed the first game of
the season against the Bedmen
with a sore shoulder, had his wing
injured again last weekend, but
should be back in action this Sat-
urday.
Jim Butler, freshman inside with
Varsity, missed the game against
the Mustangs last week with his
broken iiand In a cast and will
most likely have to sit it out tliis
week as well. Ray Yakasovitch's
ankle still is not in the best of
shape and he is a doubtful starter.

received during the Mustang
game and will see action against
the Redmen this Saturday.

J The umbilicus Is a roiind depressed cicatrix In the midline of the
Bonien usually found at the level of the fourth lumbar vertebra. It
■esents the site at which the umbilical cord entered the embryonic
SHvidual- The main structures passing through the cord are the umbilical
ries and veins upon which the imbom depends for sustenance. It was
' these vessels that infections of the newborn were so prone to occur
[the preaseptic days.
H&milton Bailey has written: *'Every time we examine an abdomen
ives, almost instinctively, rest momentarily upon the umbilicus. How
Eumerable are the variations of this structure!" When CuUen was
maring his monumental study of the area, he examined hundreds of
fcients in search of a normal navel. So varied were they that he
iilually printed photographs of sixty types which he had seen. In the
Jant, the umbilicus is much larger in proportion to body weight than
Itlie adult. There is no relation between the size of the umbilicus and
! size of the adult.
The function of the umbilicus In prenatal life is obvious: postnataUy
[junction is contemplative.

London, Engrland (tlPress — On
November 5th Uie students of Lon-
don University n<»ninated Great
Britain the forty-ninth state of the
union in honour of ttie crfebration
of Guy Pawkes Day.
A n amber of floats were included
In the parade of over six thousand
students for the occasion. A series
of good-natured jibes were depicted
In the floats, one of which was a
modem version of the State of Lib-
erty showing liberty holding a bot-
tle of coca-cola on high. She had

one foot placed on the Globe and
another on the Union jack.
Guy Fawkes Day is an annual
celebration in England, usually
constituting an evening parade and
ending with fireworics and the
burning of the effigy of Gujr
Pawkes,
Fawkes was the man who at-
tempted to blow up the British
Parhament in the Gunpowder Plot,
Nov. 5tli. 1605, because he did not
agree with their policj-. Snce tliat
date the parliament has been very
closely guarded when it is in ses-
sion and not even the king is al-
lowed admittance without pennis-
slon from the speaker.
"Like all student councils.
Queen's are trying to reduce ex-
iji uditures and I feel the recent cut
HI student council budgets M the
li.ison for this step," said Joan
1 1 sant. in Anthropology, NFCUS
Cnairman, in a statement to The
V araity yesterday regarding
Queen's withdrawal from NFCUS
"Speaking as an ordinary mem-
ber of NFCUS," She continued. "I
feel like any other student that it
is a shame. Generally Queen's
stands for Canadian Student opin-
ion and Queen's now has no voice
in this opinion as it is reflected
nationally and internationally.
NFCUS' work of attempting to
improve student welfare and act
as a unified voice on diversified
campi is a difficult task and needs
Queen's help," she said.
She does not feel it is fair that
Queen's students should derive
some of the benefits of NFCUT
without paying the cost. An ex-
ample of this is the NFCUS man-
date to reduce the high cost of
royalties on student plays and the
like. However. Queen's will miss
out of the NFCUS-arranged ex-
change scholarships and travel
schemes, she said.

Corpse Reviewed
Sometimes it is almost impossible to bury a corpse, but
that is because the body isn't as dead as could be hoped.
'And this is the case with the question of the Russian student
exchange. There are many eager gravedigrgers, yet their 3uc-
c«fis at the present has not been great.
\ Curiously enough, this is not because anybody really
(Bares about the Russians themselves, or the potential success
of an exchange visit. Rather we are more concerned with
our own attitude towards It.
)t« Possibly this is why yesterday's report on the stand
taken by Toronto's delegation to the NFCUS is so unaatia-'
factory. While it began quite bravely by stating that
^ "NFCUS IS NOT AGAINST RUSSIAN STUDENTS'*
VISITING CANADIAN UNIVERSITIES",
the -v^'hole effect was spoiled by suggesting that the invita-
tion was refused because:
"NFCUS would be opposed to certain sections of the
Canadian public and by some of the university
administrations, notably in the MarULmes and
Quebec."
It is rather hard to swallow both statements in one gulp
without suffering from indigestion.
1 The one and only point behind the whole issue (which
the official report fails to recognize) is not whether or not
a handful of Russians and Canadians are exchanged for an
indefinite length of time. Rather, we are concerned with the
jfeasoning which resulted in the NFCUS decision.
The statement quoted above indicates not only a spirit
of reaction in the minds of the delegates themselves, but
ftlso a fear of public opinion. They were afraid of what people
might think and of what might happen to NFCUS as an
organization. Yet a cowardly act can hardly make any group
etronger.
The report seems to believe, and it is very probably
true, that little would be accomplished by such a visit. The
Russians, being a picked group, would be hardly likely
to respond favorably to the democratic ideas with which
they were confronted.
But this is hardly the point. It would be about as diffi-
cult to convert Russian students to our viewpoint's to equip
Asian universities by our contributions. In the^tter case,
however, we are willing to make an effort.
Last year's All Varsity Aid from the University of
Toronto indicated our interest in the welfare of Asian uni-
versities. It hardly exhausted the need nor was it meant to.
Similarly, an exchange visit with Russian students
ghouid not be expected to bridge the gap between East and
West. It would, however, indicate more forcibly than any
conference could possibly do, our willingness to give the
Russians every opportunity to co-operate.
And such exchange visit would show that we, at least,
were willing to support the democratic convictions which we
purportedly kave.
The representatives of 45,000 students at the NFCUS
conference decided that they would not receive unanimous
support from their universities. Yet, already the Universi-
ties of British Columbia and McGill have indicated that at
least part of the students disagreed with the NFCUS
docisioo.
' ' The whole issue is to be re-opened; an autopsy will be
performed on the corpse. Maybe the causes of death will be
found insufficient and in this case, the corpse could be
ibi-ought back to life. But that is up to the universities of
(Canada to decide — among them, prominently displayed, will
be the (^inioja of the ]Uaiversity of Toronto.
Editor, The Varsity:
As the UN Assembly convenes this weejt people
throughout the world will watch and listen for a
spark of hope Uiat a peaceful settlement of world,
conflict may emerge. The UN Charter represents
the basis on which genuine peace can and must be
built. The foundation stone of the Charter is great
power unanimity, without it peace becomes pre-
carious to say the least. Is there any better way to
ensure peace outside the UN Charter and great
power unanimity?
Collier's magazine would have us think that peace
can be achieved by war. As a recent Varsity edi-
torial pointed out the main emphasis of the article
was the Third World War — and the glorious
prospects following it. There was little discussion
of what we would do with rearmed Germany and
Japan after the war or exactly how we were to
convince 400.000.000 Chinese that we were their
friends. War itself has never really solved anything
but wrought havoc and created problems greater
than existed before. Man can always look back and
see that war could have been prevented.
Professor Underbill took up the question of peace
fai The Varsity recently. It is a very good thing to
have our professors writing in The Varsity espe-
cially on such an important subject. He lauds the
American theme, "peace through strength," i.e.,
more rearmament. But can Professor Underbill (as
an historian) cite examples of how armament races
have prevented wars in the past? He also speaks
of America's move to take decisions on security to
the veto-less General Assembly at the beginning of
the Korean war as "brilliant constitutional ma-
noeuvre." Brilliant inanoeuvi-e for what? Peace?
Well hardly! Its result has been the extermination
of one-and-a-half million Korean civilians. Genuine
peace will depend in the final analysis on great
power xuianinimity protected by the veto as
Roosevelt foresaw when he suggested it.
Mr. Harold Miller of the World Federalists spoke
on the campus recently propounding his view on
how peace is to be secured. But his sum-up reveals
the truth about World Federalism: "Even if Russia
doesn't join the World Government and she is the
big question mark (why should she give up sover-
eignty to an organization dominated by powers
which are antagonistic — writer) it is stiU better
and more secure for all western nations to oppose
her xmited rather than individualy." We can see
that this course of action has little hope of achiev-
ing peace except amongst the western nations, but
of course they do need something to keep Iranians,
Egyptians and Nigerians m line.
Mr. Cadbury. British Quaker and millionaire
chocolate manufacturer, was reported in The
Varsity to have expressed the belief that mutual
understanding is the way to world peace. No one
could say this is not a step in the right direction.
Its importance has been forgotten by our NFCUS
leaders who rejected the opportunity of inviting
Russian students to Canada. To invite South-East
Asian students instead of Russian students is to
do no more for world peace than ttie World
Federalists.
The NFCUS Conference in Xrijndon did
steps toward peace. They pa^ed a
favor of peace and approved a meeting of
student unions with lUS to discuss their d^^''' I

World Federalists, and NFCUS in part, have

are its ^.ims.
The Peace Petition does not ask for ne^

And the first ac^ the Petition calls for is a
of Peace between the Five Great Powers, Sc-
have said that this does not go far enough a.
one could argue at greater lengths about d
armament with controls, banning atomic weapc-
demilitarizing Germany and Japan, trade and c.
tural exchanges — all important questions on pe^^^
But the point the writer wants to make is thai '
attitude. There are two attitudes that a per
must constantly keep in mind if he is ^oiiv
work for peace: 1. the two economic sy^tun ,
exist side by side, and 2, that peace i',
negotiations is possible.
We must respond to each new opportuiiii; ^
break down the barriers of misunderstajiding
fear wliich produce war hysteria and blind 'oy^L
the real possibilities that exist of solving probfej
peacefuly. For Instance, as Mr. Cadbury sugjtSi
we should follow up Russian peace proposals m
positively.
The NFCUS executive last year endorsed tli
Idea of a five power peace pact as a meam i
safeguarding peace. It is not too early to diva
endorsation by the new executive of the Five Poia
Peace Pact. The Appeal for a Five Power Ptia
Pact and the attitudes towards peace it represE'j
is the best medium for working positively lor
genuine peace.

Editor, The Manitoban?
Congratulations! Your editorial
e«i the conventionalism of mod-
ern youtA was supported on the
same page by a superb example.
The reasons given by the Toron-
to delegation to the NFCUS con-
ference, explaining why they re-
jected an invitation to Russian
students to make a brief visit to
Canadian campi, displayed aptly
the inert disposition of our think-
ing.
The delegation argrued that we
could not learn much about
Russia by looking at the visit-
ors for a few days like aJiimals
in a 200. This was not the pur-
pose of the visit. It is possible
for the Russians to learn a great
Yea Vic !
Editor, The Varsity:
I think that Jack Gray should
go back and see the Bpb Revue
again. He has presented a
rather narrow viewpoint in my
opinion, and has judged the show
as a whole by one or two of its
acts. I will not dispute the fact
that it "doesn't hang together",
(although I think quite good un-
ity is maintained by the open,
ing and closing choruses), be-
cause I don't believe that is a
standard requisite of any vari-
ety show . . .
It isn't every year that any col-
lege review turns out a new col-
lege song, and especially one as
catchy and spirited as "Stand
and Shout". That was composed
by Barb Taylor and Phelps Bell,
two Vic students as loyal and
enthusiastic as their song, and
the cast at least doesn't consider
this little ditty run-of-the-mill,
not by a long shot.
I'm all in favor of honest and
lair criticism but I think that the
the critic in this case has erred
in overlooking at least two very
original facets in a terrific col-
lege show.
Judy Hutchison,
I Vic
deal about our culture - by living
in it for a few weeks.
The delegation feared that the
Communists would make politi-
cal capital of the opposition by
some universities. True, this is
food for the Russian propa-
ganda machhie, but to prevent
this we are trying to hide the
sordid truth that there are uni-
versities, institutions of educa-
tion, wliich are so prejudiced
that they will not permit Soviet
students on their campi. I feel
that the NFCUS would lose
nothing by the withdrawal of
such narrow-minded organiza-
tions. •
They were afraid of opposition
from sections of the Canadian
public and university adminls-
tratione, particularly la the Marl*
times and Quebec. If their
stated conviction, that
NFCUS is anxious to extend
operation with students throiLE
out the world, were anythiDg"*
bellywash, they would suppon
against any opposition and «
tainly not be intimidated

is agitating for a Student Union
Building."
The cost of such a project also
came up for criticism from Strauss.
A forty- thousand dollar expenditure
to be used to coordinate the SAC
projects and committees might be
in order and not the three-hundred
thousand which Is the proposed
cost of a Student Union Building.

"fae Student Union building has

the answer of Lois DeQroot, IV SPS.
to Strauss' statement. The Idea of
a Student Union and its uses has
been long considered at the Uni-
versity, Uses such as rehearsal halls,
meeting places, and a place to co-
ordinate the coeducational activities
in the evening, were a few of the
suggested uses that Mrs. DeGroot
mentioned. "A poll taken five years
ago resulted in 75% of the students
wanting a coeducational Student
Union building" she went on to add.
Girls not in the Arts courses had
no place of their own to relax in.
Dave Rose, IV UC. spealcing
against the resolution, felt that the
"rising costs" and "decreasing en-
rolhnent" would make It foolhardy
to attempt such a project now. Rose
went on to mention the other fees
that a student has to pay such as
college fees. Hart House fees for
men. SAC fees, and athletic fees,
would make it prohibitive to add a
$12 fee for the maintenance of a
Student Union building. "There
would be difficulty in providing the
initial cost and the mauitenance
costs" went on Rose. He thought it
better to maintain the high stand-
ards because "the University of
Toonto will be judged on its aca-
demic value" and because the
money would be better spent toward
that aim.
In the qoestlon period that fol-
lowed it was brought out that the
Student Unio* committee of the
SAC had cut the original plans to
the bone but that no cost estimate
had been arrived at. The proposed
building, which would be an ad-
ditional wing o Hart House, would
contato offices for the SAC and aU

Narrow Campus Attitude
Deplored By Syd Wax
Opposition on many university campi to Canadian student participation in international
atfairs was deplored yesterday by Syd Wax at the open meeting of the SAC External
Affairs Committee.
"Althougrh most Toronto students do not realize it" Wax said, "The majority of Cana-
dian universities do not have the dynamic interest in world student affairs to be found on
this campus." Wax is chairman of the Intemational Activities Commission of the National
Federation of Canadian University Students (NFCUS).
This "isolationism" was very evi
dent at the NFCTJS Ontario Re-
gional conference held over the
weekend at McMaster, he said. He
also pointed cjjit Acadia University's
refusal to give money towards ex-
penses of a Canadian delegation to
the conference between NFCUS and
the International Union of Students
this December. However, Acadia
will continue to contribute to a dele-
gation to the Edinburgh conference,
to be held the same month between

dent unions who have found it im'

West Indian students who would
like to send Christmas messages

with Canadian Broadcasting Cor'

sible.
The CBC aDDonnced yesterday
that it is shipping records of holi-
day messages made in Toronto to
the islands of Jamaica, Trinidad,
Barbados, and to British Guiana.
If any students from Bermuda, the

possible to work with the Commu
nist-dominated lUS.
Wax then described a program of
Canadian international action which
Jack Gray, UC, described as "the
most constructive and ambitious in
NFOUS history."
Canada has taken the world
initiative in asking 25 student
unions to try to co-operate with
TUS, Wax said. A meeting is to be
held next month at which NFCUS
and lUS win try to find some com-
mon ground on which they can
work together. In its circular letter
the Canadian body has urged the
other national unions to try to find
a compromise.
He aI»o described the stand
NFCUS is taking in a plan for
Pan-American Student Union pro
posed by the Brazilian union. Cans,
da's participation has attracted the
attention of both the United States
and Brazilian student bodies. Wax
said.
"This Is the first time NFCUS
has ever gone out and done any-
thing actively in tlie intemational
field", declared Jack Gray. "In the
next 12 months, it may make up
for the lack of action of the put
five years," he added.
Wax also traced the hisiory of the
conflict between the Communist-
dominated lUS and NFCUS. which
came to a cUmax during the sum-
mer of 1950. At that time the Cana-
dian observers to the JUS confer-
ence in Prague recommended that
NFCUS have nothing further to do
with the intematlonl body. Hiia
summer Denlz Layure, one of the
observers at the 1950 conference, re-
turned from the Warsaw conference
of the lUS with a belief that com-
promise between the two bodies was
possible. For this reason the western
unions — luS meeting will be held.
Gray, however, warned that
NFCUS would not likely find com-
mon ground on which to co-operate
with lUS.
The national role of NFCUS, As
opposed to its international activi-
ties, was vigorously defended by the
local NFCUS chairman, Joan Pres-
ant. in UC. NiPCUS actively work*

'Win Korea"
Lecture Topic
Of P, Berton
A group of lormer residents of
International House throughout the
world will meet together in Toronto
Wednesday to celebrate Inter-
cational House Day.
There are about 50 persons en-
rolled in the Toronto alumni group,
which will present a lecture on "Tlie
United Nations in Korea" that day.
The lecture will be given by pierre
Berton, the Assistant Editor of
MacLean's Magazine, recently re-
turned from Korea. It will be given
at 8 p.m. in the Women's Union
Theatre, on November 14.
International Houses are situated
In connection with universities in
New York, Chicago, Berkley, and
Paris. They are large residences at
which only foreign students live.
The one in New York, for instance,
holds about 500 students of almost
every nationality.
The Toronto Alumni group was
granted a charter only, last year,
and is now investigating the pos-
sibiUty of a House in Toronto. Such
a building is needed badly, says
Al Shea, one of the group membei's.
However, he adds, the group has
neither the money nor the plans for
a Toronto International House at
present.
The Houses in the United States
and in Paris have been built with
Rockefeller Foundatior. money. In
other centres, the money has come
from local benefactors. Such is the
case with the House in Copenhagen,
although some Rockefeller money
has been used for an extra wing.
The Toronto group hopes to find
a Canadian donor who will con-
tribute the majority of the money
lor a Toronto International House.
If the money is raised, the building
here will be the first permanent one
of its kind in Canada. There is a
email House in Vancouver, Shea
eays, but it is not up to the scale
of other International Houses
around the world.

his iffo-
informal
open meeting of the SAC External
Affairs committee go on record
as approving the principle of ex-
change visits between Canadian
and Russian students was with-
drawn by Jack Gray, U.C. It was
decided to let the decision of the
students of the University of To-
ronto come solely from individual
faculty mandates.
Peter AUey, IV Trln, vice-chair-
man of the External Affairs Com-
mittee presented a list of possible
stands that could be taken on the
question of inviting Russian stu-
dents to Canada. He asked that the
colleges and faculties instruct their
EAC representatives to take a stand
on them by either affirming one
(the first) absolutely, or making a
preferential selection.
The possibilities suggested are as
follows:
—that NFCUS not concern itself
with Russian students coming to
Canada under any circumstances,
—that Toronto press the National
Executive of NPCUS to work for
consent from the constitutionally
requisite number of local commit-
tees to effect an exchange of stu-
dent tours with the Russians for
this year.
that Toronto press at the next
annual conference of NFCUS that
an exchange of student tours with
the Russians be effected for the
academic year of 1952-53.
—that Toronto press that NPCUS
arrange an exchange of r
and Canadian students for th \1
suit of their studies for an apL^H
ic year.
— that Toronto request that Ntv
lend the support of its a
facilities to any organization
will effect any of the above
the first), taut that it not
burden of any such tasks
— that Toronto press that Mp-
ask some organization, (presu

Service (ISS) ). to carry onul^
all of the above proposals.

that after listening to Syd Wax

George Morrison, IV Met
of the Toronto delegates to

the delegates' motives
against the proposal was maini

that he had been working on a

strong opposition of some i

such plans impossible.

They Dress At Munitaha
Reprinted from the Manitoban
The sophomores, j uniors and
seniors of the male sex at the Uni-
versity of Manitoba are not, nor
probably would they want to be,
candidates for the title of "Cana-
da's Best Dressed Man." Occasion-
ally their suits need pressing, their
ties are garish, their shoes are
dirty. Frequently they forget to
shave. But a new order ol man has
entered this unjver.?ity and men of
the seniors years are, by compari-
son, "men of distinction". The class
of '55 has descended upon us in all
its high school disorder. Seniors,
scan well your brothers who have
elevated you, in fashion circles, to
the pinnacle.
The most essential article of
dress in the male Ireshman's closet
is his trousers. This is probably
very natural and as it should be —
but such trousers! They oontahi
enough cloth for two pairs of the
ordinary type-most of the bolt
settling about the knee. It seems
that, last year, a tailor was having
some difficulty fitting one of his
patrons. The lad was desperately
in need of the pants for the local
high school hop, and said tailor, m
desperation, made them fit by
pleating the side seams three or
four times. Apparently these very
trousers were the highlight of the
evening, and all the Winnipeg
youths, not to be outdone, immed-
iately adopted the fashion. In a
matter of months, one's place on
the social scale came to be deter-
mined by the number of pleats m
the pants.
Came the day for Johnny to
choose his coUege clothes. Sweat-
ers, he was told, are the essential?
in the undergraduates' wardrobe.
Johnny did not inquire further to
discover that sweaters are usually
worn by members of his sex over
shirts.

The council is built on students
representing tlie five permanent
memberships (Great Britain, Rus,

gether with Canada, India, Israel.
Yugoslavia, Norway and the Arab
bloc. The non-permanent member-
ships were determined after a poU
was conducted among members of
the campus UN Club, sponsor of
the model council. Members were
also polled on the countiy they
would most like to study. India,
Russia, the United States and
Great Britain in that order proved
most popular.

questions as "how do I get my teeth

DVA problems are still received
by the Advisory Bureau, although
there are only approximately one
thousand students on the campus
who are still receiving veterans'
allowances. The Bureau is the sec-
retariat for the Veteran's Loan
Fund, and works closely with var-
ious benevolent funds in addition
to the university faculties.
Often students are refen-ed to
the Bureau by the registrar's of-
fice, the University Health service
and by individual staff members.
Social, emotional and mental dif-
ficulties are refewed through the
University Health Service for psy-
chiatric consultation when advised.
Naturally matters discussed with
the advisors are kept in the strictest
confidence and the fact that the
Bureau has no disciplinary author^
ity helps it to operate in a neutral
zone.
The seeking of advice is (
pleteiy voluntary, so there is
compulsion for anyone to make use
of the Bureau's services. Perhaps it
is because this point is stressed,
that a great many students do call
on the Advisory Bureau for help.

Deep Drama
For Victoria
balcony viewpoint
By FRANK MOR3TSUGU
The last film we saw concerned with hospitals was Joseph
Mankiewicz' PEOPLE WILL TALK.. It was a witty piece faied with
bright talk and comment about the medical profession and some of the
taboos and attitudes of our society.
Another film concerned with hospiUls Is WHITE CORRIDORS,
a British product which opens at the Odeon-Toronto today.' Quite
different in its approach, this new film presents a kaleidoscopic view
of a hospital's internal processes. Don't let this scare you away; the
internal processes are not mechanical but human.
Most of the action takes place in one day at Yeoman's HospitaJ,
somewhere m the BagUsh countryside. The story makes me think ol
Lloyd C. Doiigias' preoccupation with hospital habitants, but perhaps
Elizabeth Seifert has a hand in too. (Someone named Helen Ashton
wrote the original novel, though.) At any rate, there is the devoted
young researcher (James Ronald), his ambitious surgeon-fiancee
<Googie Withers), the scared young probie (Petula Clark), the dis-
tmguished surgeon (Godfrey Tearle), his weak doctor-son (Jack
Watling), the senior nurse (Moira Lister) who loves the weakling, and
so on.
Tried-and-trae stuff it all is. and yet the whble thmg jeUs toto a
neat package. WHITE CORRIDORS dees not shake the world but it
is not starched and antiseptic either.
Credit for the satisfaction would go to director Pat Jackson's tight
direction and to James Ronald and Googie Withers who mate their
obvious parts i^eem qmte hnportant. Ronald will be remembered as the
corporal in THE WAY AHEAD, and Miss Withers, with the expressive
face, has been around quite z while.
Basil Radford is injected as a "guest star" but his material does not
meet his peculiar Ulents. Jack Wstling, of course, was the young tetmis
star in QUARTET who came off well witJi the blonde temptress. And
young Brand Inglis is another un-precious British child star. Bairy
Jones of SEVEN DAYS TO N<X>N is seen in a small bit.
I especially liked the tasty handling of probie Petula Clark's facing
the Man Without a Pace. Director Jackson never lets us see the scarred
man when the bandages are removed. A neat touch.
I do not know what the medical or nursing professions would say
about the technical aspects of this film, although the impression is
given that great care was put into authenticity. But as a layman, you
may go away thinking that the next time you ring the bell and the
night-nurse doesn't turn up. it might be because under the stai-^'hed
bosom of her uniform, warm emotions are stiiTing. That will be a way
to curb your impatience anyway.

clear and warmer, and nothing
other than some di-ying weather is
going to return the field in the Sta-
dium to anything like proper play-
conditions. The Redmen have
developed a diversified attack to
strengthen the aerial power that
they shc\ved when the Blues de-
feated them in Montieal earlier in
the season, and a good playing ser-
vice would enable them to use
everything in their bag of tricks.

Robillard are the chief threats in
the McGill backfield. along with
Pindlay who is the leading scorer
for the Redmen this fall.
The Blues suffered a slight stroke
of bad luck yesterday morning when
quarterback Alex Lawson fell on the
icy pavement and gave himself
quite a cut on the right elbow. Al-
though it was not felt advisable to
take any stitches in the cut due to
its position on the point of Law-
son's elbow, officials felt that Law-
son would be able to play and would
not be hindered to any great extent
by the wrapped up elbow.

Ryerson Institute placed applica-
tions for entry of a basketball team

basketball team was rejected be-
cause it was not .considered likely
to be up to the calibre of the league.
The hockey team, lacking an in-

try because it was not felt they
could cover visiting teams' expenses.

The Inlermediate Blues' dreams of an anaefeated season
were rudely shattered yesterday on a snow-covered back
campus as they absorbed a 13-0 whitewashing at the hands
oi^ the OAC Redmen. The Aggies' superior kickmg and a
couple of breaks made up the difference between the teams
as Varsity's vaunted pass attack was stalled up the heavy
ball and a good pBss defence.

" The field was covered with some
four or five inches of snow, but it
had been removed from the yard-
markers and the sidelines. Red pow-
der was laid down on the lines to
make them stand out.
The result of the game meant
nothing so far as the league stand-
ings went, since the Blues clinched
the top spot last week. However the
Aggies gained a measure of revenge
for the 19-7 shellacking they re-
ceived from the Intermeds a few
weeks ago as they racked up a very
convincing victory yesterday. Mc-
Lennan was running for substan-
tial yardage all day while Calverley's
booting left little to be desired.
Fitzhenry and Geekie didn't start
to connect with their passes until
the second half and even then they
didn't complete enough to throw a
scare into the Aggies.
OAC took the lead in the first
quarter on two singles by Calverley
as a hard-charging Aggie line kept
the Blues bottled up in their end
of the field. The Intermediates
threatened once in the second quar^
ter when they penetrated to the
OAC 15. After the Aggies had driven
for two consecutive first downs into
Varsity territory, Ron Fleming pick-
ed up a Red fumble and raced to
the OAC 40. Don Harrison carried
twice to put the Baby Blues on the
15 but the Farmers held and kick-
ed out of danger. After an exchange
of kicks Strapp of OAC grabbed a
loose ball in the Blue backfield and
raced 40 yards to the Blue goal line
to make the score 7-0. The try for
the point was no good. Late in the
quarter two Pitzhenry passes

the game with the Redmen tomor-

and may cause him to miss this
game as well as the last two.
Steve Oneschuk, who spent the
last half of the gaihe In London
nui-sing a couple of sore ribs, seems
to be back in top condition again.
Bill Bewley's shoulder has been giv-
ing him a bit of ti-ouble the past
couple of weeks, and a fail in the
wrong dii'ection tomorrow could
cause him to head for the sidelines.
The Blues have got a game on
their hands if they hope to prevent
the Redmen from forcing the league
into a playoff, and they realize it.
A win for McGill tomorrow would
put them at the top of the league
by one point and the spot for a
playoff would be theu: choice. They
would probably choose home terri-
tory figuring that a home game i3
an easier one to win.

this fall.

open on the next play as J. Smith

end zone to put his team out ahead
13-0. The convert was not good.

players are fast, skilfull, and al-
ways dangerous. The forward lino
is particularly good, and will take
some stopping no matter what the
conditions.
The Blues have suffered only one
loss this season, and that to Mc-
Gill. If the Redmen win at R.M.O.
today, the Blues will have to beat
McGill to tie for first place In the
Eastern Division of the intercol'
legiate league. The champion will
be the team with the best scoring
record.
The Blues are all alone on top^^
the Western Division not havuo?
lost a game, and a convincing win
tomorrow is all that stands between
them and the championship.
The Intermediates are followinS
hi the footsteps of the senior team,
not having lost a game yet. Tlio
Little Blues have two games to
play yet against McMaster. One
was scheduled for today, but ha*
been cancelled due to the weather.

Most college show producers arc content to make their sets oat of

Skulehouse things are different; their machine must be made at least
partially of metal to stand the strain put on it. Hence we see the
eager stagehand with full welding equipment putting the properties
together. The work may be a bit warm, but we'll bet he's one of the
few photographic subjects who wasn't bothered by the magnesium
flash of the photographer's camera. What the flash of a welding
torch in use can do to a lecture is almost as obvious, too.

In the firsc of three basketball
games at OCE last night, Phys. Ed.
I's, last year's inter-faculty champs,
continued their winning ways with
a 40-8 victory ovej: UC Sophs. The
game was a lot closer than the score
indicates, but 22 fouls called against
UC didn't help their chances. The
,Phys-Edders were smooth all the
way, but they were not to be out-
done by the UC guard line which
was a power house. Alma Hatch
led the winners with 15 points, and
Sally Wallace followed with 13.
PHE, who have won their previous
games by scores ranging from 53-6
to 71-15, look like the team to beat.
In the second game, St. Hilda's
Jr. defeated Phys-Ofs 37-13. It was
a good clean game in which St.
Hilda's definitely had the edge.

CAT WEEK
Cartoon by Hugh Niblock.
I don't know quite
how it came about, but
all of a sudden I find
myself identified as "the
most useful, loyal and
self-effacing of God's
lesser creatures". Me —
an ordinary, champus-
type cat!
I find the whole busi-
ness very nattering. It
all began in 1938, when the American Feline 3QcIet7^
Inc., was founded, and chartered by the State of
New York. Apparently a bunch of dear ladies got
together and decided they wanted to start some-
thing*. What more useful than a Cat Society? And
so began this non-profit corporation, with mem-
bership open to "all those having the Cat's in-
terest at heart." The Society Inc., now has 63
member societies. It is heart-warming to think that
you guy.s are really so concerned about us CATS.
We used to get along all right on our own, you
know, but a little build-up never hurt anybody.
Now natcherly the Society, Inc., has its purposes.
The chief ones are to "alleviate cat suffering and
abuse, offer protection, food, medical attention,
advice and instructions on the care and feeding
of these animals." It proudly notes that its services
to date have involved more than 35,000 Cats. That's
a lotta Cat. #
It boasts an adoption service. Also a Cat Infor-
mation Bureau (I'll let you know when there's
anything I wish to be informed about). But it
gets better and better.
May I quote from the publicity blurb the Society,
Inc., is sending out to the press? "The Society is
credited with giving the Cat greater publicity (with
a view toward elevating the animal to rightful
place in the scheme of contemporary p;
than all the previous eftoits in the
humane organization history." Ain't thaf^""'*
The blarb continues, telling that th
Idc.'s chief concern is that of the coounn

Darkness Too Soon
Oiir Library
Someone has said that the true university consists of a
collection of books. And however restricted this judgement
may seem, the library remains the basis of any university.
If it is not a good one, the university can hardly be expected
to be a success.
Yet, at the University of Toronto Malcolm Wallace com-
ments "we have just completed (1949) a new Chemistry
Building at a cost of ?4.300,000, but our library as a building
and as a collection of books can only call forth our apologies
and explanation^."
Siiice 1923, library facilities at the Univei'sity of Toronto
have been growing more and more inadequate. Built for a
Btudent body of 2,500, the library can hardly expect to serve
the requirements of a student population of over 10,000.
And it does not.
For almost thirty years, an extension to the library
has been needed and yet, for one reason or another, it has
not been built.
After the war, not the library, but a New Mechanical
Building, a new Chemistry Building and a new Stadium were
first constructed. These first two buildings were essential,
but hardly more so than the library. And the stadium might
possibly have waited a bit. Yet the library has waited so
long that no one was very surprised at the delay.
It is a very easy thing to be convinced that we can
make out with what we have just a bit longer. And in the
case of the library, we have become used to doing this.
Many people would suggest that university students
today are not reading as much as they ought. But the bar-

Consciousness" by Arthur Wrest-

Let me raise tlie Iron Curtain
on a drama of frustration that
only now can be told.
Act Oneski
For two long, empty months
our hero, Seibenjar Itch, had
writhed on a little bed in a
third-floor cell in the Ivory Tow-
er (the Union prison for men).
His hau- faded, his face grey,
loneliness had long since taken
its toll. Only in his reddened eyes
remained tthe memory of the
glorious party.
"Whatta party", he was often
heard to say. >'
His head still actied as he re-
membered the way tthe vodka
had flown, how wonderful it had
been to burn the monopoly game
in the basement, and then, of
course, he remembered . . . Olga.
"Son of Itch", - she had said,
"cant you realize IT we had a
student union you could bum
monopoly games upstairs and
with me?"
Why had he listened, why oh
why did he go along with the
party His mind buzzed; another
toast. Another vodka. His head
spun. Suddenly, he feared that he
was. ... He thought it would
be wise to leave the party, but...
Act Twoski
It's been two months now since
Siebenjahr was taken from the
Union Party to the Ivory Tower.
It's been two months now since
he's seen his Olga. He dreams of
nothing- else as he looks out his
window into the Quadrangle be-
low. Yesterday they took away
his Capitalist Calendar,
I didn't think that even this
son of Itch could last long after
that, and he didn't.
His end happened dramatically,
so the story goes.
One night from the code pound-
ing in the radiator pipes Sieben-
jahr learned from the outside
that Olga was somehow going to
come to him that night.
But how could a girl get in
where even. Varsity -Pravda re-
porters had failed? Could Olga.
disguised in a suit-coat, linger in

over her peasant windbreaker be
enough to break the electric eyes
that guarded every entrance?

was flat before he finished the
performance.
Broda was unconvincing as the
goal-tender. Every time he was
scored upon, he overplayed his
disgust. His gesture of breaking
his goalie-stick on players that
sooi-ed on him was quite an un-
necessary bit of business. Produ-
cer Smythe may well omit tliis
from the play.
The second act had some grip-
ping moments, especially when
Homer, on being penalized for
tripping, made some grand
speeches. These will undoubted-
ly be deleted by the censors be-
fore the next performance.
The unknown character who
was planted in the audience pro-
vided excellent comedy relief. His
throwing of hats, programs, and
poUy-seeds upon the ice while
the game was in prepress f
vided no end of amusement. F
ever, in the third act, he
slugged over the head by

The result of all these restrictions is inevitable. Students
attempt either to buy as many books as possible, which is
expensive, or to cut their reading to an absolute minimum —
« more common alternative.
We are not suggesting that all the red tape is a special
device of the library to discourage iwtential readers.
The circulation if library books would probably not in-
crease by a 100%. But the fewer the barriers the better.
$2,000,000 has been set aside from the Building Fund for
a new library building. Construction is supposed to begin
after the completion of the Heating Plant.

a riot of action and colour. Of
coiu-se. there were several dull
stretches throughout the play,
but the sincerity of the individ-
ual performances was unques-
tionable,
Norman Lamport in the im-
sympathetlc role of the referee
gave an interesting portrayal, and
rose to great heights in the free-
for-all in the third act, before
being abruptly hit by a flying
Pepsi-Cola bottle. His closing
speech was rather crude and out-
of-place but it was so sincerely
sptAen that he passed out quite
realistically.
The first period was featured
by a rink-length dash by Syl-
tanus Apps who played the lead.
He was dieered by the audience
at every entrance and his techni-

University Forest Block
Is Site For Field Work
Every year the oM story that the
University of Toronto Campus is
too crowded comes up with rela-
tion to something or other that
should be on the campus and isn't.
Every time, it is explained that
there is no room lor it on the Cam-
pus.
Despite aU the crowding on the
home site the University of To-
ronto can still boast the largest
university lorest ol any univer-
sity in Canada. They have 18,000
ftcres ot hardwood and mixedwood
areas typical of the parts of Hali-
burton County in which they are
located. This compares with uni-
versity forests of about 7.000 and
e.OOO acres at the University of
New Brunswicli and tlie University
©r British Coluinbia.
The University Forest Is situated
©n highway 35, seven miles below
Dorset and about 27 miles above
Minden. The main center of for-
est is marked by the Ontario For-
est Rctnger School and is the head-
Snobby Beerkowski
of Toronto Egonuts
soyf
quarters for all the work done on
the university property.
The Ranger School was started
during the war and was completed
in about five years. It consists of
a main school building, complete
with an auditorium in which 16
mm movies are shown every week,
a dormitory which accommodates
about 60 people, a dining room,
with kitchen facilities combined,
capable of seating about 200, a
well equipped garage and carpenter
shop and a boiler plant capable of
supplying central heating for the
whole station and enough elec-
tricity for most of it in case of a
power shortage. In addition to all
this there are individual housing
units for each of the teaching staff
there.
There are many other courses
taught at the University Forest.
The first and second year Forestry
students take three weeks field
training there every year. Third
year civil engineers take five weeks
of surveying field work there, and
the final three years of Architec-
ture take two weeks of training in
landscape sketching in the fall.
The University rents the buildings
but supplies their own staff and
their own site for carrying on this
work.
With respect to the University
Forest proper, its main purpose is
to supply Varsity with a place to
carry out its research programs,
and to give its students practical
field work under typical field con-
ditions. Ten years ago the whole
area was virtually a waste, but
now, though not yet greatly chang-
ed, it has become a major centre
of research on the provincial level
Some plans are already being laid
for holding a world conference on
Forestry there next year.

Varsity Takes Win Quietly
It was a grand day for the Blue
and Wtiite Saturday— even though
many Toronto students didn't knew
what cup the Blues had won. Aftter
the goal posts had come down and
the victory parade had stopped
traffic on Bloor Street, people were
still talking about Toronto regain-
ing the Intercollegiate Rugtiy Cup
and the Grey Cup. Some people
mentioned the Mulock Cup and
the Bracken trophy, but they were
not won over the week-end eillier.
If...
If we had a Student Union
I Building students from McGill
would not have had to be enter-
tained at places miles from the
campus.
Old-timers aroxmd the Univei'sity
noticed a big difference between
the sober, young students who
watched the Blues win in '51 and
the gay veterans 'wlio stormed the
City Hall after the victory in '48.
Although the cheerleaders a^ked llie
crowd to follow the band after the
game, only around 300 v;ere maix-h-
ing witli the combined McGiU and
Toronto bands by the time the pa-
rade had marched along Bloor
Street and Queen's Park to College
St.
In 1948 over 5,000 students block-
ed traffic on Bay Street when tLiey
marched on the City Hall. The City
of Toronto police were prepared to
see Bay Street blocked, but were
completely unprepared for the com-
plete tie-up th?,t resulted when the
Engmeers carried the goal posts
down Yonge Street at the same
time. This was, of course, before the
subway.
When they reached the City Hall,
the mayor congratulated the team;
Bob Masterson made a speech, and
President Sidney Smith sang a
song. The present-day students do
not know what they missed by not
foUowmg the band. The song alone
was worth the walk.
However there were a few stu-
dents wiUins to risk life and limb
at lialf-time. Five or six gay blades
did swan dives from the cross bar
at the south end of the field, after
almost breaking the bar in their at-
tempts to swing up on top of it. A
smoke bomb added to the confusion
while some of their friends tried to
ha-sten the dives by shaking the
goal posts. Fortunately, none
v.'ere hurt.
The most colorful addition to
Saturday's game with MoGill was
the Redmen Band with new red and
v;hite uniforms. This was quite a
cliange from the shabby crew who
marched several years ago and
were mistaken for the Lady Godiva
Memorial Band by some of the stj.
dents. The new unifoirn- aliuKt

Cadet G. S. Shreve, second speak-
er for the Marine Academy, went
on to point out that they were a
criminal conspiracy, with a move
to take over the government by un-
democratic means.
"Communism merely offers a
false philosophy to those who are
dissatisfied," declared Elmer Sopha,
Grad, "and since ttieir propaganda
has won the first step, the United
States is now in a state of hysteria.

Deplores
Spurned
'Culture'
At a meeting of the U. of T.
Polish Students' Club on Sunday,
Julian Michalskl, cultural director,
spoke on the purpose of the club's
cultural committee. Michalskl sftid
that the committee's aim was to
place emphasis on the intellectual
aspect, by providing the club
members with a background of life
and history.
•■It is rather unfortunate," ho
said, "that in our so-called modera
society there is a pronounced ten-
dency on the part of the average
man to spurn the idea of culture."*
In his opinion this attitude is a
result of two things. The first la
that man today has an ill-con-
ceived notion of the meaning of
culture. Secondly, man has set out
to condemn certain aspects of
culture without even making, an
effort to study and analyze tho
products of a culture and esti-
mating their worth.
According to Michalskl. culture
is not only the material develop,
ment in man, but what Is more
important, the moral development
of the artistic and ethical activi-
ties. Therefore, since culture ij
sc«iething which belongs to tha
earthly order, it is the product of
man's reason. In obtaining an in-
sight into culture we study not
only culture itself, which is tha
effect, but also the people wh«
are the cause.

Simpleton's and Cretin's (by Jack Robson and Pat Watson) also had
a Rood idea. It was marred at times by poor acting, a tendency to throw
Ewav the blue pencil too soon, and bathroom fixtures. Bert Stones
Royal Visit was excellent, but here much of the humor was kiUed by
throwing it away. Grant Gibson was guilty of this more than once.
People who did a good job: Gibson, Freed and Rechshaffen in The
Big Three, probably the best all-round act of the show. Vem Turner,
for his work throughout. Jack Robson. although not particularly for his
acting Grant Gibson who, even though he killed many of his lines,
Ehows premise. Gilda Fine, for the first minute of her part in Bathtub
Ballad. Joan Palter, for her treatment of Twenty-One.
Directors Barbara Comes, Joe C, Goldenberg and Victor Beube (who
, was unfortunately invalided out before the show was produced) made
their big mistake, I think, in trying to do too much, to be too original.
In the case oi untrained dancers, for example, imaginative precision
routines are a better bet than ballet sequences. And unless you have a
lot of time in which to train it, the singing chorvis can become an
unbearable millstone. Another beef I have was the use of the PA system
fio many times. A stage is a stage, and not a radio studio. Although it
may make it more difficult, evei-y time you use your stage and get rid
of the PA system you manage to appeal to an audience in the way it
expects to be appealed to, through its eyes, as well as its ears.
This year's UC Follies could have been much better than it WEiS. Still,
for those vJho participated in it the show has probably been fun, and
for many, a valuable experience. And while the treatment was not always
of the calibre I would like to see, the words "completely original" still
put the Follies in a class that could use more members.

Immaculate Technique
Beethoven's Violin Concei-to in
D is one of the great concertos for
that instrument, not because it
fully exploits the violin's tech-
nical capacities, but because it
realizes to an unusual degree its
typical quality. Beethoven de-
liberately put virtuosity in a sec-
ondary position and allowed a
fresh elevating lyricism to blow
freely through every b£(V of his
masterpiece; this must be given a
full and sensitive expression.
Thus the concerto becomes a test
for violinists who wish to prove
that they are not mere technicians
but mature musicians as well.
Technically, one may be excellent,
yet not able to sense their subtle-
ties and gi-asp the meaning of this
composition.
Last Wednesday night, at the
regular TSO concei-t. Tossy Spiva-
kovsky. in his performance of this
concerto, proved at least one
thing: he is to be ranked with the
great violin virtuosos. He has a
fine immaculate technique which
revealed itself in the difficult ca-
denzas; his three part chords
used liberally there, were remark-
ably pure, no mean feat on the
violin. Too, ■ he tried to convey
the lyrical qualities of the work;
but he succumbed to a temptation
which I consider unforgivable.
Taking the inherent romantic ele-
ments, he overexpressed them,
sometimes to a point of effemin-
acy. This was especially true in
the first movement. The

ANITA FREEDMAN
real on June 27, 1921, came to To
ronto as a young child. She grad-
uated fi-om Harbord College Insti-
tute and enrolled in English Lan-
guage and Literature at the Uni-
versity of Toronto. -
It was here at the University
that she began her career in writ-
ing, as a member of The Varsity.
In 1942 she received her B.A.
and the following year went to
work for the Canadian Press. Af-
ter two years at the Canadian
Press slie joined the staff of the
Globe and Mail, where she be-
came known for the accuracy,
style and completeness of her re-
ports.
When Anita Freedman died May
28, 1947, a group of her close
friends thought it would be a fit-
ting tribute to her memory if an
award was ^ established in her
name. The award was also intend-
ed to arouse an incentive for
journalism on the University of
Toronto campus.
All reporters are eligible and
there is no restriction to the type
of writing. Any writer of sports
news, art, music, book and movie
reviewing or features may qualify.
There are no set standards otlier
than energy, faithfulness, inven-
tiveness and integrity of the re-
porter concerned.
The awarding committee is com-
posed of the Editor-in-chief of The
Varsity, who provides the person-
al information, the Secretary-
Treasurer of the Students' Admin-
istrative Council, a representative
of the University of Toronto, and
a member of the Press.
It has been four years since the
award was first established. Prev-
ious winners have been: 1949,
Wills Harrison and Jack Gray (a
joint award); 1950, Don Stevenson.
In 1951 the award was not given,
because in the opinion of Prank
Moritsugu, then Editor of The
Varsity, no writer on The Varsity
staff possessed the abilities requii--
ed. No one had contributed an all-
round effort of superior reporting.
It iS'to be hoped that this year at
least one member of The Varsity
may possess the elusive qualities.

By DAVID PEDDIE
Because ot the traditional ela-
borateness ol the sets and the
time lapse in setting the stage, the
technicians of Skule Nite '52 will be
working under a great strain.
In order to give them more time.
Skule reports that "We're featuix
'ing a Magician before the curtains
who will stage a major illusion
never before attempted in the il-
lustrious history of Hart House
Theatre."
The Magician has stated that
this will not be just the usual
sleight-of-hand, but an outstanding
effect staged by many leading
Magicians tiiroughout ttie world.
He assures that anyone who sees
this act will leave Hart House
Theatre wondering how the trick
was done.
Samaritan
President David R. K. Rose of
the University of College Literary
and Athletic Society offered to give
Skule Nite a script after the UC
Follies were over. Skule could not
accept the script as the show has
been cast and besides they already
had a similar script.
SCIENCE NOTES
Pterosaurologists
By JOHN REDFORD
The aeroplane is a recent ap-
licatiuii of the principles of flight,
t /light is no new phenomenon.
mi one hundred and fifty mil-
years ago vertebrates first
ntured into the air using the
me principles of flight that are
und in the aircraft of today.
During previous periods in the
i-th's history, an exti-aordinary
.riety of animals had adapted
emselves to life on land or in
e water. Finally, some animals
10 found that it was getting rath-
ciowded down on the earth de-
ded to adapt their bodies to fly-
g so tliat they could escape the
01 existence of crawling around
the ground or splashing in the
lean. To do this they had to de-
:lop wings, a motor, light strong
sdies, and a good stabilizing sys-
Two groups of animals
,ade this experiment. One group
as that of the flying reptiles or
terosaius; the other group was
lat of the birds. The birds have
irvived until the present day,
i)t the pterosaurs perished along
ith their dinosaur'an cousins
bout sixty million years ago.
caving the study of birds to the
rnithologists, let us become
teiosaurologists and consider the
inged reptiles and their experi-
lents in flight.
There were two great groups of
terosaurs. The early ones were
^ the most part small, often not
PSer than robins or crows. The
'es that appeared later were
'ormous. Pteradon, for example,
id a body over four feet long and
ihajuinum wing span of some
f-enty-seven feet. In those days
^ere must have been some spec-
ciilar air accidents, unsurpassed
^he world'i history until the
'resent century.
The wing of the pterosaurs was
_ nuge membrane supported at
leading edge by a greatly elon-
Bp ,, ^oiiith finger. The remain-
t luigers were hook-like claws,
I^Paiently used for clinging to
]„„ powerful breast mus-
n„-7'^ached to a greatly enlarged
loiih^f , However, it is

^eti ^^^^'"^^^ was over eight
eiiipi ^^"^ limbs were ex-
lese T^^^- ^^^^ suggests that
.big ^"''»als were almost incap-
°' locomotion except in the
air. It has always puzzled scien-
tists how they were able to take
off from the ground or from the
water,
Tlie pterosaurs were lightly built,
with hollow bones which were
strong yet at the same time re-
markably light.
For a stabilizing system, ptero-
saurs had a long tail with a hori-
zontal fin at the end. Their hind
legs were extended back and con-
nected with a membrane, the mov-
ing of which could control their
flight.
Their food habits are imperfect-
ly known. It is believed that they
ate fish, as fish bones have been
found in their stomachs. Their
large effifcient eyes also scanned
the horizon lor other flying crea-
tures such as insects and birds
which they swallowed whole.
Like all other reptiles, ptero-
saurs probably laid aggs. As the
bones of the pelvis are closely con-
nected, these eggs could not have
been larger than those of a hen.
Such small young would need pa-
rental care, and they may liave
had breeding grounds and season-
al migration just as do modern
birds.

saurs were warm blooded, for it
difficult to conceive how they
sustained flying action over long
periods of time without a constant
body temperature. Other reptiles
are cold blooded, but these that
developed independently may have
attained a condition similar to
b?rds'and mammals.
In London, Ont., last Friday night, a new play
by a Canadian, Joseph Schull. was given its first
stage presentation. SHADOW OP THE TREE won
the 1,000 dollar prize awarded last year by the
London Little Theatre for the best Canadian play
against 72 other entries.
Although this critic cannot say anything ot the
play itself, not having seen or read or heard it on
the radio where it has already been performed, I
think that it offers an opening into that field
sown with so many dragon's teeth — The Canadian
Theatre.
Mr. Schull's play is one of the very few that have
been recognized as good plays and it is among an
even smaller group of plays that have been
financially satisfying to their authors. Even then
$1,000 is paltry when one considers the effort that
was put into it£ writing. It is commendable of the
London group that it has given the prize and
staged the author's play but we are still a long
way from anything resembling a living' theatre.
Now most people will question the very concept
of a native theatre. After all, if they want to
see a play they can see the best shows from Broad-
way imported by a few theatres in some of Can-
ada's larger cities and that is far better than an
amateur show put on by the people who live and
work right here in Toronto or London. It seems
to their shallow minds that nothing theatrical can
come from the dull atmosphere in which they live.
Many other people have tended to be annoyed
by this talk of a "Canadian Theatre," because the
tallc has been so idiotic. It has usuaUy revolved
around the ideas of culture and art and education
or something equally insipid.
For some strange reason the theatre has an
eternal fascuiation for a large number of block-
heads, show-offs, and pale-young-things who think
tiiey are artists and who want to do artistic
things. They want to e cultured and they have
been told that Culture is Art. The culture they
espouse is their only reason for living; actually it
is not even a good excuse for living. So we hear
them saying tliat someone must provide them with
a National Tlieatrc in which they can act or attend
as the flower of Canadian culture. They want the
theatre to attract bigger audiences and then by
some mViacle the audience will become CLiltm"ed
and then everything will be just gi'and. That of
course is the extreme case and will apply In no
one person du-ectly but it is the assumption of too
many people — both those who are for a theatro
and those who are indifferent.
However, an excellent account by Robertson
Davies of the Canadian Tlieatre as it should be if
and when it comes, and the reasons where, v;hy
and how, is to be found in the volume of special
studies prepared for the Massey Conunission. Mr.
Davies realizes that the theatre Is primarily the
result of a culture, not the cause of one, although
m a secondary way it is slightly educational. The
fact that the Massey Report made a study ot the
arts is far more noteworthy than the pseudo-
artistic theatrical groups, and seems to suggest thafi
we are nearer to a theatre than evre before.
In judging: oar own tlicatrical achievenients;
such a.". Mr. Schull's new play or the performances
of any local group, we must have a standard and
Mr. Davies tries to define one for us. "A classic
thoroughly understood and finely presented, a
display of virtuoso acting in a play of modesC
merit, a fine piece of ensemble work in a play of
Tchekov or Ibsen, a farce played with skill and
gusto — any of these may in its degree provide
that special pleasure, that sense of exhilaration
and fultillment whicli first-rate theatre can give."
This we should remember, for too often we are
apt to accept what is called art as true culture.
But to steal from Mr. Davies again — "Enou3h lor
one morning. Let us to the cocktail lounge where
we may drain a bumper to the future."

We are particularly anxious to
get applications from the profes-

ttie past, V. ot M. students in a
prolessional faculty have been dis-
appointed that they have not been
able to meet students from our

was a laige representation from
their Dentistry faculty while we did
not have one application from that
faculty here, she added.
Tlfb University of Montreal is

When Mr. Reach starts making the official Intercol-
legiate football with a handle on it, the Blues are go.ing to
be the greatest college football team in Canadian history.
Last week at London they came as close as they possibly
could to giving Western the game when they fumbled away
the bail five times. Last Saturday, with the Yates Cup on
the block, they lost the pill on fumbles six times, once to
Bet up McGill's only touchdown, and dropped three of Lick
Lawson's passes, one of them in the end zone, a sure touch-
down.
Fumbles or no fumbles, though, you have to go a long
way back to find a Varsity team that can match the record
this one has made. They were checking back through the
records when we left the press box Saturday but had not
found an undefeated season or an undefeated j^cord of
eleven straight games. They'll probably have to go all the
way back to the Champlain-Cartier-Radisaon team (which
covered quite a lot of ground too).
I It was a great defensive ball game, with neither team
able to sustain a long march or scoring breakaway, and with
thumping hard tackling. Those fumbles weren't the result
of poor ball handling, but because the backs were hit so
• hard that the ball was torn away. The fumble Saturday was
an offensive play by the defensive, rather than a lapse on
the part of the offensive; all the scoring resulted from
recoveries. Varsity's first touchdown resulted from the re-
cover.v of McGill fumbles on two consecutive series of downs.
MacFarlane swept eight yards around the end after the
second recovery to score. Varsity's three first half bobbles
resulted only in Kobillard's single, as the Varsity line, out-
Weighted but not outfought, held McGill back on the others,
In the second half, both teams scored touchdowns from
fumbles. Biewald was separated forcibly from the ball on
the kick-off, and 32 yards and nine plays later MacFarlane
was over again. Lawson's lovely TD pass dropi)ed by Mac-
Farlane came after a recovery on McGill's 15. All Lawson's
passes, by the way*, hit Varsity receivers, were either com-
pleted or dropped. It looks like the Blues have developed
a pass attack potentially as good as their ground attack
BOW that the season is over.
McGill's touchdown was scored after two Varsity
fumbles in their own territory in the third quarter. The
Bedmen actually gained more yards and first downs than
the Blues, but thanks to Al Haig's kicking (except for two
20-yarders in the second half on which he was badly rushed,
one of which he recovered himself, Haig's hoofs averaged
'44.4 yards from Hn line of scrimmage), the propensity on
the part of C ' i nd Robillard to pass or run on third
down, and the s.iiloning of Varsity's defence whenever

In Swimming Meet
P.H.E. Takes Title
Last Saturday night at Hart
House pool the Women's Interfacul-
ty Swimming Meet brougsht to a
close five weeks of practice for
some twenty-five girls. Nearly every
faculty was representetJ in one or
more of the eleven events.
PS.E. easily won the faculty
championship with an aggregate
score of thirty-five iwints. Trinity
and Victoria followed with twenty-
five and eighteen points respective-
ly, points were gained
through the combined efforts of
Beryl Lewis, Fricky Wood, Peg
Rowntree, and Roselyn stone.
Louise Willard, Trinity showed
terrific form and came up individ-
ual high scorer, winning the div-
ing, synchronized solo, and school
figrures, for a total of sixteen points.
Second by only two points was Peg
Rowntree, PHE. In the closest race
of the evening. Peg managed to eke
out a win over Pam Perrln, Vic, by
one-tenth of a second in the sev-
enty-five yard medley.
Beryl Lewis, PHE, made thirteen
points winning the fifty yards free
style in 305 seconds, and also the
fifty yards backstroke. Lois Cossar,
Physio, by her sustained drive gain-
ed most of the points for the com-
bined Meds-POT team.
The most impressive event was
Trinity's synchronized duet. Jane
Rogers and Jessie Marinner per-
formed the difficult tricks in their
routine with perfect timing.
The costumes added sparkle to
the evening. Especially colorful were
the black sequined suits worn by
tfc swimmers, Helen MoPhee and
Joan Ellis.
All in all, both the swimmers and
the audience appreciated and enjoy
ed the evening which was mark:
by enthusiastic swinuning of a re-
markably high calibre.

the outstanding ball carrying per-

Isolationism
The charge levelled against smaller universities In general and Acadia
in particular, that the course which they followed at the recent NFCUS
conference leads to isolationism is neither corpect or warranted.
The Acadia stand was not groundless. Larger universities who would
wecome "a little honest controversy over the visit of some dyed-ln-
the-wool Russian Oonimunists'* would do well to remember and respect
smaller colleges and their views. i
The proposal to bring fifteen Communists to Canada for an expense-
paid tour of Canadian universities is something that not even the most
starry-eyed idealist would dare dream. Certainly these 15 commies would
be trained propagandists — experts in theit field. On the other hand they
would be meeting students who would have had no experience in such
matters. We would be sitting ducks. While some universities might lay
claim to superhuman intellectual and argumentlve powers for all their
students we at Acadia make no svich boast. We are a group of college
students and most of us would not want to be pitted In a bull .session
or eUewhere against 15 of Russia's best. It only one student were
influenced by these Reds, then the enUre purpose ol the plan would
be defeated. '
Supporters of the plan argue that this trip could arouse Canadian
.students from their smugness, and complacency. If such a method must
be used to arouse Joe College, then he is not worth arousing. Forums,
lecturers. Mock Parliaments and so on will awaken student lethargy
without the help of propaganda we know to be deadly to democratic
ideals.
It is all very well to discount the adverse publloity which such a move
■would bring to NPCUS, but the fact remains that a Red Reputation once
acquU-ed is difficult to get rid of and would do nothmg to further NFCUS
work at home. This coupled with the extreme expense of bringing these
Communists to Canada is reason enough for an Acadia veto.
When our campus \s fuUy aware of the issues, bring on the Ru-ssians.
But we are not yet ready for them. First things first. Let us develop on
each campus an awarene.'^ of democratic Ideals and concepts, of ovir
way of life and our poUtical thinking and Institutions. Then, nnd only
then, will we be able lo effectively cope with any Reds that may be senk
We then would be fighting on the enemies' ground and not ovir own.
Instead of all this plnying with fire, let us now tum our efforts to
the Canadian Student, which should be the primary concern of NPCUS,
and all members of student government. After we have developwl a
national consciousness and awareness, then and only then can we widen
our scope to include others.

Only three minutes later the
Blues missed a chance to put tne
game on ice when MacParlane
di'opped a perfect toss from Lawson
in the end zone. Late in the third
quarter the Redmen began to take
matters into their own hands. Mc
Gill recovered a Lawson fumble on
the Blue 52 and began to roll
Robillard elected to nin on a pass
play and carried to the Varsity 39.
Quinn plunged for 10 yards and a

After the Blue line had held for
two plays at the start of the fourth
quarter, SHwka hauled in a pass on
the Blue 8. Varsity held and re-
gained possession, but not for long.
Caldwell pounced on a Blue's fumble
on the Varsity 27. Grain tossed to
Shaw for a first, and then charged
his way to the one through the

Tomluison limped onto the field to

With only 4 points between them
and victorj'. the Redmen began to
show a little fire, but a determined
Blue team kept them bottled 'ip in
their own end until a desperation
pass in the last minute of play
from Grain to Klein brought the
play to centre field. A McGUl pass

jtEP ROOTERS
The American Everyday Dic-
Uopary's definition of "glum" —
gloomily sullen. The Varsity's
definition of the McGill CheerlnB
section— gloomily glum. This was
the third year in a row Ijiat the
Kedmen supporters have travelled
to the province of Ontario, m the
hopes of seeing their heroes wm
a clutch game that might mean
the Championship; and alas and
alack this was the third time that
they were sadly disappomted.
This "Hydraniatic" McGill team
(no good in llie clutcli) gave little
tor the McGill rooters to shout
about, and their comments and
their cheers during tire game re-
flected the sad disposition of tne
Montrealers. _ , ,
The only amusing incident that
gave Coach Vic Obeclc's followers
some relief from the sad case of
the Blues that they suffered hap-
pened before the game. Obeck
and some fans had just descended
from their bus. when a SOu'M"'
scalper (he was no more 1"=;"
teen) saddled up to the McGill
coach, and in quick, sl^oit, under-
tones offered him a choice ticket
lo the game. Said jc.alp^r^
"Would you like this ticket? Re^
plied the coach; "A ticket To
v/lia^'" To which the young licke.
broker replied in obvious youth-
ful astonishment. "Why to get in
here, of course." To wmch Mr
Obec quipped tecl!. "What's going
on in there?", strolled off amidst
loud guffaws, and left the most be-
wildered young scalper that the
city of Toronto ever did see.
The McGUl Section, which was
the largest visiting cheering sec-
tion to appear at the Bloor Bowl
this year, were on the edge of
tlieir seats all through the second
half, but remained Quite silent in
their anxiety.
Faculty off Arts
Manitoba (CUP) — In a recent
editorial The Manitoban hi\s up-
held the position of the Faculty of
Arts at the university. Arts stu-
dents are charged with wasting
time and graduating without any
practical knowledge. Yet Arts
teaches the student to think and
work for himself which is cciually
as important as, or more impor-
tant than mere technical knowl-
edge. Even cramming for lectures
develops inlUaUve. The Haniloban

A Large Cast
*"What is truth?' said jesting Pilate, 'and would
not stay for an answer." And neither does the
newshawk linger as he edits the daily despatch, 2f
the evidence of current media is convicting, we in
the ha]f-century face a chaos of communication
that would shaite the Tower of Babel. News turns
to the black and white of its ink and paper, but
Its real colour remains unseen. The reader who
thinks that he reads pure news, reports of events
as they are. needs a dose of reflection on what
happens to news between the event and the printed,
page.
Fiction mixes with fact from Korea eye-witness
observers, and the event must filter thi'ough u
series of lenses before they see printer's ink. A
few of the lenses are (1) the bias and prejudice
of the reporter, <2) tlie perspective or position of
operation, (31 the ability of the writer, (4) his
style, (5) censorship, (6) selection and condensa-
tion for cabling. i7) re-write revisions at the paper.
(8) the headline and position set by the editor, and
possible last minute cuts. What emerges may still
be the event. But it resembles the original much
as an omelette the original egg.
Look at the front page of Saturday's Toronto
Star. Reporter Dick Ryder writes, or rather, imder
iiis by-line is the full text of Liberal Walter
Thomson's "MAY BE YOUR MOTHER" speech
from St. Catharines, in double column, bold face
type. Page three features a small, shady picture of
Premier Leslie Frost to the left of a huge, half-
page, well-lit cut of Thomson, and under the Frost .
portrait is a related story with sparse quotes from
his Sault Ste. Marie address. An iiTelevant report
on Dana Porter is set up top right, in which he
exposes the Thomson link-up with the Star and
the reader melts in the glow of the Star's mag-
nanimity and fair play. The technique speaks for
itself. News is never pure.
Since advertisers pump the life-blood into a
paper, whose heart-beat contracts and expands
with circulation, news has become a commodity,
sometliing to be sold. As Dr. H. A. Innis of the
University of Toronto concludes: "Consequently it
was classified in relation to the markets which
it was supplied and in relation to regir,
produced it. In the words of Mr. DooleJ^ ^
news and news is sin.' Charles Merz wroe 'Km
is doubtful whether anything really m, , 'h^l
country like its murders." ''^s \
William Randoph Hearst believed "that 1
largely a matter of what one man wants th'^^*^!
to know and feel and think." He proved \ - SI
in tJie Journal American, "An American P^'^ ^
American People." Hearst fed on real an^'^^'^
explosions in society, and to keep the hot^
burning was his theme. Says Dr. H. m; ^\ H
in The Mechanical Bride: "Headlines meanT^
sales. It takes emotions to move merchandi!
wai's and rumours of wars are the nierch^'^
and also the emotion of the popular press "^S*^
Pulitzer "rather liked the idea of a war,.^

him a chance to gauge the reflex i
give
circulation figures." And Lord Beaverbroo!["i«
that "you must be ready to put into it your
heart and soul, your stomach, your liver ■
whole anatomy which will appear most o£ the 13
to be dangerously stimulating and r*"
positively revolting." News is never pure.
Stories are played down, trimmed, slanted!
killed, and written from an angle. A glance at J
Telegram and the Daily Star for instance,
1' We have a team ^vho won a game which won the cup.
[All this despite the large gaps in the audience at last Satur-
<Iay"s game — produced by cowards, no doubt, who thought
the game a lost cause and their comfort a primary aim.-
Not that they can be blamed too much, after last week's
>veather ructions.
But it was a fine day; both teams played well and con-
sequently, the game was exciting. There were few plays of ^ ^
awe-inspiring brilliance, but the overall tension of two *
closely-matched teams contributed to ever-increasing OUR READERS WRITE
enthusiasm from the stands.
Maybe is was because of the booing blunder at the last
feame, but everyone was on his best behaviour. A mad spirit
of co-operation swayed the stands and field alike. It was a
dizzy race to see who would come out on top, whether
cheerleaders or audience would put on a better, show.
And, unlike the game itself luckily, it was a tie. The
tinity which makes for a winning team manifested itself in
the spectator aspect of the game — an important facet of
the whole football pageant.
t In short, the football game was not composed of a limit-
ed number of players, but like de Mille's movies had a cast
of thousands, all of whom were necessary, all of whom
played well.
Yet the football season is over and the cast of thousands
a divergence in their respective cryptic suminarl
of the official forecast of the weather, ^fu^df?|
riot or fire would hence give rise to even w\
shades of meaning, to say nothing of
political hay. Ruskin ought to have iticiiijJ

truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to
at the feet of Mammon, and to sell his tmmk

prostitutes." Pi'ostitution is the oldest prolea

Philistines We !
Editor, The Varsity:
My general distress at the hy-
sterical incompetency with which
the problem of Varsity Radio was
handled, has reached the lim-
its of endurance. NoNy you have
added stupidity of reasoning
and gross unfairness to the pre-
vious stupidity of misbalanced
reporting. You have followed the
recantation which invalidated
your initial headlined hysteria
with a muddle-brained editorial
file back to their respective colleges and faculties. If past seeking to re-kindle the dying
■performances are any indication, there is a slim chance that ^mbers With your head firmly
X, .,, , , .,, , ■ ii. 1. J- * ^ buried m the shifting sands upon
they will appear together till next year jn the stadium. At ^hich the unsteadv foundations
least football seems to be the one occasion on which the of this year's lamentable stand,
university as a whole is drawn together so forcefully and so you have been blind to several
enthusiastically,
I But like weather probs, predictions in which people are
concerned are never very sure. Efforts like All Varsity Aid,
the Blue and White Society's Museum and Art Gallery
nights, and the All Varsity Revue can and have drawn the
university together in their very different ways.
Such causes should be thrust head and shoulders above
the sectionalism of this university just as Bob Masterson
:was carried triumphant from the field by his team.
Les Carabins
1 Like most all-university activities worthy of wider
recognition, the Carabin Weekends between the Universities
of Toronto and Montreal, are often just one of the many
nebulous activities on this campus.
The idea behind it, however, reflects the growing desire
among Canadians for a greater national unity. Quite simply,
it aims at improving understanding between French and
Ji)nglish speaking university students.
While, at the start, the Weekends were little more than
an unending round of entertainment, the feeling soon arose
that their real value lay not just in parties but in discussions
to get at the root of differences.
The discussions have not proved entirely successful be-
cause, like most uncharted talk, there was no fixed direction
and they buried themselves in essentially insignificant
details.
A better approach to the whole Weekend would be to
break down the eighty Carabins into small groups or eight
or ten, not just for discussion but for social activities as well.
On this more intimate basis there is consdex'ably more
opportunity to get down to the basis of prejudice and mis-
understanding.
Carabin Weekends are not designed for any special
group of Toronto students. Although open to everyone, an
unbelievably small number of students have applied, particu-
larly from the profession faculties.
Understanding is a word that is much bandied about
on university campi. But in the case of Carabin Weekends,
it has proved, to some extent, that it is not entirely worn
out from overuse-
crucial points.
(1) The initial attacks of Mr.
Waite, the Radio Chair-man,
were obviously tliesome and
childish for if it was, indeed,
true that the radio committee
had been guilty of the faults
which he claimed, he himself was
to blame. It was his duty as
Radio Chairman not tg whimper
after the event but rather, as an
SAC member (with responsibili-
ties attendant upon his privilege
of being quoted in The Varsity)
to prevent the mishap in antici-
pation before the event.
Furthermore:
(a) In tlie field of radio drama
two plays have already been
performed — an achievement of
some merit.
(b> In the field of discussions,
etc., the animosity or disagree-
ments between Rocky Martino
and your late Feature Editor,
HaiTy Rasky (now of CKEY)
were a completely open book,
(c) The lack of inclusion of glee
clubs, etc., must be attributed to
SAC supervision for Martino was
handling discussions and Giles
drama — no third party was ap-
pointed.
Thus we can see that a little
forethought on your part, though
it might have lessened the quan-*
tity of news you carried, would
most certainly have improved the
quality.
(2) In your editorial you claim-
ed that because the standard of
Varsity Radio was low it should
be allowed to die.
I will not try here to elucidate
an argument the truth of which
should have been manifest io you
shortly after the age of five:
Namely that the value of student
means of expression (be they
radio plays, discussions or pa-
pers) lies not In the finished
product itself, of course, but In
the educative effect which its
production engenders in the stu-
dents concerned.
Suffice it to say that, if this
policy of extermination of the
lame-footed were really carried
out. The Varsity itself would be
one of the first institutions to
take a hasty leave of us.
(3) In your editorial you further
claimed that because Varsity
Radio was the concern of a small
minority of students, it should no
longer receive SAC grants.
Might I point out that unless
Varsity Radio gets grants it will
never be able to graduate from
PM to AM where it can be heard.
You, in fact, are advocating a
vicious circle poli^ of exter-
mination. But with hejp Varsity-
Radio will most assuredly prove
itself on FM and thus graduate
to AM where it will establisli it-
self on the airwaves towards the
ultimate goal of achieving its
own small station. And then it
will become not only a valuable
occupation for many students
but also a means whereby some
effort may be made to instill
the first quaint traces of educa-
tion into the co-ed mind <i.e.
they may finally settle the miia
vexed problem of Hart House *
bates by hearing them over t:
air) etc., etc.
Also, in reference to the n
ter of popularity, it must i
clearly understood that tlie (-|
culation of The Varsity
way represents the number 1
copies actually read each d^l
(Of course high circulation L>
ures make for easy adverib^
seUing at high rates . . .)
{3) Your arguments of
problems of an annually cli^|^l
ing and technically uiisk'^l
Radio Chairman might Ije r\
plied equally well to the Publ^p
tions Commissioner.
In short, madam Editor, iH
are to carry out the foolish fwij
whicli you so lightheartedly -
vocate, if we are to throw "'-^f^i
Radio into the flames o(
stine stupidity, let us IJT
realize that this holocaustai J
like all other local fires (be 'J
of vandalism or not) w'" 1
assuredly have been startea
an unopened and unused cop. l

VCU Agrees To Authorize
Russian Students Exchange
Although told that The Varsity had dealt with the Russian question ad nauseam the
supponers ot a motion that the National Federation of University Students should not'con-
cein itselt with Russian students coming to Canada under any circumstances saw the mo-
tion almost unanimously defeated at the Victoria College Union meeting last night A mo-
tion was then passed that NFCUS should invite Russian students and investigate the oossi-
bility of year-long exchanges.
Noth
Both
ing
ers
UC Wall
Rumours that the walls of the
U.C. quad are crumbling have been
checked, ^ind have been found to be
of no immediate concern. It was
believed that the bricks of the outer
walls were an inferior variety gen-
erally used for interiors, The shorn
edges, seen extensively near the
claisters. seemed to indicate erosion,
caused by moisture seepage under-
mining the inner strength of each
brick. This would mean the inevi-
table collapse of the whole structure.
However, experts and authorities
investigating this problem have as-
sured that any deterioration is just
the work of old age. The walls were
built over 100 years ago. and are
constantly examined for defects.
"Barring an earthquake," one au-
thority said, "U.C.'s walls will last
another century."
In presenting the eight altern-
ative proposals which the External
Affairs Committee wanted the fac-
ulties and colleges to vote on, NF-
CUS rep Tim Armstrong said that
The Varsity had given the impres-
sion that the External Affairs
Committee was preoccupied with the
Russian student question.
Later in the discussion, Alec Ifang-
ford. U Vic, said that there was no
need for discussion as everyone
should have an opinion on the ques-
tion ah-eady. He stated that *The
Varsity had repeated the Russian
question ad nauseam.
To help the VCU make a deci-
sion, SAC representative Graeme
Ferguson gave a brief outline of the
history of the question from the
time that Denis Lazure first invit-
ed the Russian students to visit
Canada.
Fci^aon said that he voted
against the proposal that NFCUS
should invite the Russian students
to visit Canada when the question
was raised at the NFCUS confer-
ence in London, but favored the mo-
tion as a student of Victoria Col-
lege. He explained that the Toron-
to delegation felt that they could
not support the motion without the
support of the stuaent body and at
that time they did not know what
the opinion of the student body was
on the question.
There was also the danger that
some of the smaller Canadian uni-
versities who have not the strong
financial position of larger uni-
versities such as Toronto and Mc-
Gill might drop out of NFCUS if
there was a great deal of contro-
versy over the visit. Ferguson said
Acadia, Montreal, and Laval uni-
versities as well as several of the
western universities would ban tho
Russian students from their campt,
if they were Invited.
However pessimistic we may be
about the world situation, Ferguson
said he believed that Canadian
students must try to maintain good
relations with the Soviet Union. Ho
said that this was becoming ex-
tremely difficult since with the
present world split there is very
little comn;unication between Nortli
America and the USSR.

Dr. Fritz M. HeicheUieim had
been dismissed from Giessen Uni-
versity, in Germany. The reason
for his dismissal had been a mat^
ter of principle. It was 1933, and
Hitler had come to power. But,
Dr. Heichelheim insisted, he head-
ed an illegal government, and the
lecturer refused to compromise
his principles just to keep a job.
So the rector of the university,
acting under Nazi orders, dismiss-
ed the young scholar. "Luckily,"
adds Dr. Heichelheim, now lectur-
er in the Classics Department at
the uAiversity of Toronto. "IS I
hadn't left Germany then, it would
not have been easy to do so later."
One day, a month after his dis-
missal, two letters came, one from
the Sorbonne in Paris, the other
from Cambridge. He accepted the
fellowship offered him in England,
and with the moral -support of the
Cambridge scholars who had come
to fetch him, went to a congress
of professors in Munich. "I was

student. "I was occasionally en-
trusted with lectures." this reader
of 20 languages remembei-s. "but

has become one of Dr. Heichel-
heim's chief projects. "In this
world of complications' and so
many instances of ugliness, it is
good to take a daily bath in
beauty."
The son of a banker. Dr. Heichel-
heim's early life had been "happy,
carefree, and dull, at least com-
pared with our present hectic ex-
istence." As an undergraduate,
he had become interested in An-
cient history and has specialized
in it. A bronze bangle which once
belonged to a Roman cI-sW. and a
huge Tudor thumb-ring found in
Southern Nottinghamshire near
some Roman pottery, form part
of his prize collection of his own
discoveries.
"The ring was apparently lost in

The shelves of the little office,
which looks out the west side of

with all sorU of texts in many

"The Dutch firm wliich original-

firm has the contract for the new
English edition soon to appear.
A clipping from the "Gongster,"

heim was lecturing from 1942-48,
testified further to his love of

Dr. Heichelheim. the discoverer
of the boom and depression cycle

to publish a luige untouched col-
lection of ancient papyri. Co-op-
erator with the University of To-
onto on the project is Giessen
University, the professor's old
alma mater.
For the end of the Giessen epi-
sode is a triumphant one. Five
years ago. Dr. Heichelheim wrote
his old university from Notting-
ham and asked for an honorable
release. Their answer was
apology tor the 1933 affair, and a
relieving of duties so that he might
remain in Nottingham. Since then,
he has remained in friendly con-
tact with Giessen and was recently
appointed to an honorary post as
full professor at the German Uni-
versity.
"The life of a scholar Is quiet,
but not enough so in the twentieth
century." sums up Dr. Heichel-
heim. "I have so far seen two
world wars and two revolutions. It
would have been preferable to
have looked at them from the
moon."
Scholarships
For Phys Ed
Postgraduates
Scholarships of the value of six
thousand dollars for post-graduata
study in physical education, rec-
reation or physical medicine wlU
be awarded this year by the Na-
tional Council on physical Fitness.
This was aimounced by J. H. Ross,
the acting chairman, in Ottawa
on Thursday.
In awarding the scholarships, tho
suitability of the candidate's pro-
posed study with respect to his
future employment and to his pro-
fessional competence, will be con-
sidered. Scholarship winners must
agree to return to Canada for a6
least two years.
The total value of tJiese scholar-
ships has increased this year from
$4,000 to $6,000. No award may bo
for more than $1,200 or less than
$300. The scholarships are restrict-
ed to Canadians who have had at
least three years" full-time experi-
ence in physical education or rec-
reation in Canada. This must In-
I elude at least one year's experienco
since obtaining an under-graduata
degree.
These scholarsltips for posU
graduate study were set up three
years ago to help overcome tho
shortage of professional personnel
with advanced training. The dead-
line for applications is January 15,

Camfor Discusses
US -Red China
The United States should recog-
nize Communist China and admit
its mistalces in crossing the 3flth
pBrellcI a£ a matter of Christian
expediency, according to Prolessor
K. J. Joblin of Emmanuel, who
epoke yesterday before the Camfor
Club in the first of a series of lec-
tures and talks on Pacificism. As a
pacifist, Prof. Joblin felt that It was
lirst necessary to stop aggression be-
fore the positive action of Christian
love could take effect.
The Camfor Club, standing for
the Campus Fellowship of Recon-
cilUation, was formed last year as
the Christian Pacifist Fellowship. It
v/as decided at that time to form
& separate club rather than join the
University Pence Council as it was
felt that the council violated some
of the Fellowshjp's principles.
Prof. Joblin remarked that he
could see the tyrannical imposition
of ideas coming from the USA just
as well as the USSR. This prompted
one student to add that "we are as
ba-' as the USSR." Professor Joblin
Baid that to say this Is to obliterate
the judgement as wliile it might be
true, It does not necessarily follow.
The speaker hoped that the stu-
dents, who were passing through
th3 same st ge as he was in twenty
years ago, would not lose their faith
in peace or their abhorrence of war
and drift Into cynicism. The in-
vasion of Ethiopia and the Jail of
Czechslovakia shook Prof. JobUn's
belief in pacifism before 1939. Now
he does not believe that it is wrong
to use force to stop aggression as
moral force does not necessarily
work against an immora 1 force .
While stiU a pacifist he feels that
to refuse to take the logical im-
plications of the use ol force as a
last resort to stop aggression, is to
break the law of love.
Before the war. one of the Hart
House debates was on the question
of whether students should bear
aims for King and Country. Now,
Prof. Joblin said, it was felt that
while war is an evil and against the
wi'.l of God, yet the refusal to stand
on the side of justice was also an
evil.

lies on the desk of J. K. Brad-

Of Debates
Hart House
A change in the cAie of the Hart

ed by the Publicity Director of the
Hart House Debates Club. The de-
bate on •■Canada's Immigration
Policy ' was to be h^ld on Decem-
ber 12. but tlie date has been
changed to November 28 when the
Hon. W. Harris, Minister of Citi-_
zenship and Immigration will be
guest speaker.
The other debate, "Resolved that
this House regards the modern press
as a monument to human folly,"
was originally scheduled for No-
vember 21. but will definitely be
held on December 12.
never refused -to place a job on
file.
Certain occupations seem to have
more glamour attached to them —
advertising, journalism, personnel
work — and these ai'e the types of
jobs most sought after. Many
people miss good jobs because they
often disdain to accept work with
which they are familiar. Every in-
dividual has his own idea of what
he wants to do.
Some «r the jot»£ tnal come in
seem strange to most people but
there may be only one person to
fill it and the job doesn't seem so
odd when the right person is found
for it. In the past such jobs as
selling ladies' hats "wholesale and
selling books of matches found 2
or 3 interested male applicants.
The University Placement Ser-
vice was formed about thiee and
one-half years ago by J. K. Brad-
ford and is an administrative de-
partment of the university respon-
sible to the president of the uni-
versity. This service is for the bene-
fit of all grads, undergrads and
those who have completed at least
one year in any one of- the faculties
and colleges. Applications for em-
ployment have been received from
alumni up to 70 years of age who
have been away from the univer-
sity for 30 or 40 years and have
been placed, These older alumni
are not encouraged by the place-
ment service.
Most of the firms contacting the
Placement Service want students
in their gi-aduating year and no-
tices of available jobs are posted
on the bulletin boards of colleges
interested up until the start of the
examinations. Since the engineer-
ing exams start one month early,
notices of jobs interesting them are
posted at the end of their ex-
aminations.

As for the orchestral selections
little can be said except that Paul
Scherman sweated to endow them
with freshness, and in the Habc-
nera and Vaqueros Song from Na-
toma almost, succeeded.
The chorus, unfortunately, was
too obviously made up of soloists,
each singing in his or her own
style, and .^o was most effective
when it could scarcely be heard.
Hertert's appeal can be muffled
only by a very bad perfonnance,

though the swift movements, the
color and dazzle of the costumes and
the expert dancers of the various
corp.-? de ballet will perhaps tire you
a bit the second time around.
This is something unique in most
musicals. In almost every musical
there are one or two numbers
which are alive while the others
seem a lot of ado about a little. But
after oui- introduction to Paris and
other characters, Kelly with Osoar
Levant, Georges Guetai-y and
couple of older women do the lesser-
known Gershwin song By Strauss
as if they are having a wonderful
time. This carries through to 'S

Kelly do, to I Got Rliythm which
surrounds Kelly with a bunch of
Parisian ur<;hins; every number is
a delight.

Ingenuous personality that refresh-
es. Her dancing is delightful, if not
up to the technical verve of Vera-
Ellen. She does have much too
anuch ^eth, but this is a minor
fault, the rest of her graceful pli-
able self more than makes up.
Oscar Levant does familiar
things, except that in his scenes
with Kelly he seems to be enjoying
himself rather than making just a
fast buck. His playijig of Concerto
p with an orchestra of himself is
not that impressive, I liked his
singing and his bravado finishes
with Kelly much better. Georges
Guetary is the other French ac-
cent in AN AMERICAN IN PARIS,
am told he is a big name among
the Fi-ench-spsaking; he is of the
Jean Sablon-Charles Trenet school.
Guetary has a flair, he contrasts
well with the Irish Kelly. His big
number, A Stairway to Paradise, is
not that good, but this is not Gue
tary's fault. I prefer seeing beauti-
ful young ladies singly so that I
can concentrate on them, rather
than hordes of them in identical
dresses parading up and down fancy
staircases.

ion, or concerned with it in one
ly or another. Yet at no point, in
reword, body or appendix, does
ackley indicate that he is a man
ith strong, dogmatic views on the
ibject. Buckley is a Roman Cath-
which is certainly nothing to
shamed of nor to hide. It
luld help to put his view into a
rspective. His section on econo-
ics rests more or less on a charge

rtst" values in its students. Buck-
' never defines just what he
Jang by "collectivisf\ ^ but it
;ms to be roughly or vaguely as-
:iated with "socialist'^ His view
, this matter has already: been
lorously challenged by those who
low Yale well. ;
For the Canadian reader the most
Interesting, and most damning
section of the book is the chapter
on "The Superstitions of Aca-
demic Freedom". His charge is
specific:
"I believe it to be an indis-
putable fact that most colleges
and universities, and certainly
Yale, the protests and preten-
sions of tlieir educators not^
withstanding, do not practice,
cannot practice, and cannot even
believe what they say about edu-
cation and academic freedom. 1
am not saying that they do not
utilize the rationale of academ-
ic freedom to obtain license
when and where they desire ii.
This they most certainly do, for
their policy is one of espedi-
ence."
Buckley's thesis is that universi-
ties, whether they admit it or not.
do conform to what he terms an
"orthodoxy ", that there are limits
within which faculty members must
keep their opinions if they wish to
be "tolerated". And then he says;
"Now these limits are very wide
indeed, and they are limits pre-
scribed by expediency, not by
principle. My task becomes, then,
not so much to argue that lim-
its should be imposed, but that
existing limits should he nar-
rowed."
I do not like Buckley's book, nor
his thesis. It is disturbing, but per-
ha.ps significant, that such a book
should appear at this time. Living
in his own world of absolute per-
sonal values Bu9kley may natur-
ally want to see those values spread
widely as possible. Yet there will I advertising,
^e few who will agree with him |
Vale
that we should move in on the uni-
■versities and turn them into insti-
tutions that are little better than
propaganda mills, no matter how
right the propaganda might seem
to us.
What Buckley sepms to fail to
understand in his rush to rid Yale
(and presumably other universities)
of those who do not agree with his
own narrow interpretation of the
truth, is that the values and stan-
dards of a society should at all
times remain open to change, so
that when significant portions of
the population see a better way of
doing something, or a more satis-
factory way of belief, thdse changes
may manifest themselves. And in
democratic societies the job of the
universities as I understand It, is
one of giving a man the methods
to work to improve his society,
rather than a rigid set of values
and beliefs which it will become
his main task to propagate.
Perhaps, as Buckley seems to be-
lieve, our greatest strength is our
greatest weakness. But with Yale's
former president, Charles Sey-
mour, many will prefer to "seek
the truth and endure the conse-
quences", knowing tliat the "truth"
is an elusive kind of thing, and the
•'consequences'' often explosive.
Buckley is described by his pub-
lisher as an "eloquent spokesman
for the new generation of conserva.
Lives — the 'new radicals' on the
university scene". He has also been
called a "black reactionary". God
and Man at Yale tends to bear
out the epithet rather than the
Jack Gray
The first issue of Vic's College Magazine. Acta Vlctoriana, came
out yesterday morning with an excellent new cover by Bev. Pearsoa
and a restful lay-out that make it a pleasure to read. Although we
think that lower-case type should have been used on the Table of
Contents when It was used so extensively throughout the magazine,
who are we to quibble if the contents themselves are as refreshing and
easy on the eye as the lay-out is at first glance? Let's dig in with botb
feet and find out!
John Finlay's Vditorial keeps an even balance between facts 'and
speculation. It is a straightforward presentation of the state of extra-
cunicular activities around the university and it is not written from
the lofty perch of some ivory tower far removed from the cries of men.
So too. Walt Stewart's article. The University and Society, keeps its
nose to the ground and deals with the business at hand in an earnest
and intelligent way that leads up to cite thi.s article as the best in the
whole issue. Can this be the same guy who wrote that zany letter to
The Varsity not so very long ago? Anyway on to Marg. World's
of -interest- to- Vic-people article. Prof's Away, which brings the
professors back in the limelight even though some of them tried to
escape, for the summer at least.
The contributions to the Fiction, Poetry. Books and Drama section
are good, but it is quite obvious that Acta is coasting along on the
talent-s of three or four people who have been with them for socne lime.
Chuck Rea has a lot of words at his command but sometimes we
question the use to which they are put. We've just never iiad a wave
slap us disinterestedly, or something. Joyce Upshaw's contribution is
good in parts but quite a letdown here and there, especially in iJie
second stanaa of her poem. Ricky Arnold.s idea in Old Burwash is
entertaining, but the second half of the story is far superior t-o the
pea incident. Jo' Boyd's In Loco Parentis unfolds skilfully and has a
nice. soft, unhurried touch. All these contributors will be familiar to
last year's Acta readers and the only new name is that of Jean Little.
Miss Little's poems show promise, to use an old cliche and Acta Is
considerably richer for her contributions. Finally. William Glenesk does
his usual competent job in a description of the present state of Hart
House Drama.
Other feature contributions toe the line and we think it no small
accomplishment that the first issue of Acta has no glaring errors in
taste or use of English from start to finish —whoops, we just turned
the final page and damit. there it is— we do object to try somewhere
else. We believe it is a crime against the VCU to go to all the trouble
that a college magazine involves and then to have even the tiniest bit
of space thrown away for nothing. Whaddya mean, WE expect the
wqrld for free!

Now this book is probably the
least exciting of the series, be-
cause the novel in America has
been adequately presented before
in critical treatises on the subject
and the study of the American
novel follows a generally accept-
ed path. James leads the way as

man that America has produced

from favor in the face of a new
generation which believed that his
scope was hmited reaches its low-
est ebb with the publication of
Dreiser's Sister Carrie in 1900.
Dreiser emerges as the father
of the new naturalism and expon-
ent of an observational type of
writing which believes in putting
everything in. The first two dec-
ades of the century produced all
kinds -of novels devoted to putting
everything in in the belief that

writers who appeared in the twen-
ties owed very little to that tradi-
tion. Hemingway and Fitzgerald,
the two writers who will stand the
test of time, were spiritual chil-
dren of Gertrude Stein, and Miss
Stein was far more Interested in
the way people wrote than she was

Senior Skule Wallops Meds 6-0
The Senior SPS football squad kept alive their playoff
hopes yesterday as they handed the Meds I crew a 6-0 set-
back on the back campus. The win gives the Engineers four
points and brings them witlihi one point of the second place
UC team. But they must face both UC and Victoria in the
final two games of the season, and need two wins to clinch a
spot in the post-season games.
The big difference In the play in last one, jvith about two minutes
yesterday's contest was on the line
where t!ie Skulemen were too much
foi the inexperienced Medicos.
Led by the hard tackling of end
Don Kerr, the Engineers' line com-

through the Meds line at will rack-
ing lip ten first downs on line play.
Thp Euiiineers put on two drives
which showed them to be the super-
ior team. One in the first half took
them from their own 35 all the
way to the Meds 12. But Lhe Red
and Black line tightened up and
on third down Kerr attempted a
lield goal which went wide.
The Skulemen got rolling again
In the third quarter and tfiis tim§
went all the way. Gaining posses
«ion on their own twelve, they rai
the ball for a touchdown on eight
plays. They were helped by pen-
alties to Meds for having too many
men on the field on two different
occasions, and the Doctors were
forced to play a man short for al-
most six minutes, and it was at thi:
time that the Engineers made their
touchdown drive,
to go, was from Wheeler on the
Meds 47. to Oopolino on the Skule
25, and he ran it to the ten before
being brought down.
Wheeler threw another to Samis
who took it on the five and car-
■ied it over. But the major was
called back as Meds were offside
on the play.
Ella was the star of the Skule
team. I^iraing in a good running
and blocking performance, while
Beattie, Riddell and Lietch were
good up front. For the losers. Wheel-

Coach Bob Dunstan, who played
on and coached Varsity champion-

grad. assures us that the ideal play-
er should be an even cross between
a bull in a china shop and a trained

polo the fast hard sport it is.

opinion. At 5'10" he weighs a solid

lighter linemen.
Bill Pullar of McGill was a

Doug McNichoI, 6'4" 205 pound

good shape considering the pounding it took from old "i*

repeatedly (on several occasions fights were narrowly avf' '

of a Forestry team who refused to give up, but fought till "".

Wortman Comes In First
As Blues Take Harrier
The Varsity Harrier team won
the cross country championship '
for the sixth straight time since
the war at McGill Saturday.
Chuck Wortman coming in first to
go down as individual winner.
Varsity and McGUl are the only
teams that generally compete iii
this Intercollegiate sport on the
senior level, but Royal Military
College. Guelph Aggies, and West-
ern also entered teams In the meet
this year.
Varsity had a score of 26 '4 to
take the meet by a considerable
margin. RMC was second. OAC
third. Western fourth, and McGill
a poor fifth.
Wortman*!( winning time was 26
minutes 0.0 seconds, fast runnltig
for the 4.7 mile course. Behind him^
Gord Rintoul tied for second with
an RMC man and Bud McCurry was
fourth. Rintoul is in his first year
of harrier running and put on i
very promising performance. Mc
Curry, who has been running In-
termediate in past years, also did
a fine job upon making the Senior
team.
George McMuHen came in sev-
enth, and Murray Gaziuk put on a
sprint to come in twelfth to beat
McGill's best distance man, Farrel
Hyde. McGill did not place any-
one in the first half of the 25 man
field.
The Intermediate team goes to
London this Wednesday to meet
t«ams from Western and pAC,
The first quarter went scoreless,
as Poresti'y dominated the play due
to some tricky mnning by Eddie
Marcus and Waddell's pass receiving
ability. The Woodsmen were also
aided by a fifteen yai'd penalty to
Trinity for roughing the kicker.
The second quarter was almost a
copy of the first, with one excep-
tion, it was Trinity all the way.
Taking advantage of a penalty to
Forestry, for roughing the kicker,
the Buttery Boys moved right down
field on long gains by Steedman
and Lawson. Finally, deep, in the
Woodsmen's zone, Doug Andlson
tossed a pass to Harry Meredeth
who rompied over the goaline un

vert to give Trinity a 6-0 lead.

Initials scare the reader away. By using them, a publish-

tbought that the reader will not go past the initials in the

The initial device is as frightening in its implications

like "The, War to End All Wars", "The Forgotten Man",
"The Greatest Happiness of the Greatest Number" . . . even
"Don't be Hall Safe."
Some of the slogans may be for irreproachable causes.
But their effect is to provide a catchword that can be clung
to and quoted, in the absence of real thought.

Chairman, Carabin Week-
Stalinist
To Hoodlum
Peace And What?
Comment
Editor, The Varsity:
I find myself in agreement
with Drama Editor Peddle and
his review of Darkness at Noon.
While Peddie gives a good re-
view of what happened in the
book, he does not review the
play,
Sydney Kingsley. the adaptor
of Koestler's book, apparently
felt that tlie character of Glet-
kin would be much too subtle for
theatre audiences. Therefore he
transposed Gletkin from a realis-
tic-thinking young Stalinist to a
hoodlum. And to make the trans-
formation complete Gletkin was
moulded as a Nazi storm-trooper.
Granted there are many party
members who are indistinguish-
able from Nazi storm-troopers, it
was most necessary to Koestler
to HAVE NO PRESSURE put on
Ilubashov. Rubashov's final con-
viction of self-guilt MUST be
the result of an honest apprais-
al of where "communist line"
tliinking will end.
Given this freedom of thought.
Editor, The Varsity:
Until recently possibly the most
abused word in the English lan-
guage was the small word "love".
The meaning of the word ranged
through God so loved the world
.... to maternal love ... to he
"loved" her at dawn ... to the
"loving"' of apple pie a la mode.
It now appears that the pre-
eminence of "love" is being
tfiireatened by another small
word, "peace." Ever since the na-
tions have appreciated the value
of the word, "peace", as a propa-
ganda agent, we have b€>en bom-
barded with "peace" in every
shape and form.
For example, in Mr. Ander-
son's letter in the Thursday, Nov.
8 Varsity, the word, peace
mentioned 32 times. This
like an awful amount of peace,
might be suggested to Mi". AiioeJ'
son that it approaches an oDse>'
sion witti peace.
The word, "peace", standi^
alone, means nothing. ^^Ipqrt
what? Peace and slavery? ,
and imprisonment? Peace
d.ishonor? Peace and death
Or peace and trust? Or P^'' ,

Charge Leftist Tendencies,
Gag-Ruling Stops Defence
Montreal (Special) — At a regular meeting of the Students' Council of the University
of Montreal held Monday the editors of the student newspaper Le Quarlier Latin were dis-
missed. The editor-in-chief, Gilles Duguay, though regularly a member of the Students
Council, was not allowed to speak at the meeting.
This dismissal action was instigated at the request of a number of individual students,
as well as by a delegation of student presidents of the various faculties on the campus!
The final-portion of the meeting was held in camera and no reasons at all were included in
— _4the -notion for calling^ the dismissal.
In an interview with the president Jean Noel Rouleau, the McGlll
Daily learned there was a general feeling throughout the university that
the newspaper reflected only the views of the editors and not of the
student body in general. Charges of left wing tendencies were also level-
led at the paper
One of the few specific Issues mentioned in the discussion pre-
ceding the vote, was the criticism of the Royal Visit by the Qtiartier
Latin. The paper devoted an entire issue to the visit of the Royal
couple to the university, but several of the articles were uncompli-
mentary and were written in a satirical vein, The Daily reported.
This, it was felt, did not take into consideration the fact that the
Royal couple were given a rousing welcome and consequently there was
no sufficient justification for what was felt to be excess criticism.
When contacted. by The McGill Daily last night, Duguay said that
smear tactics were used to arouse opinion against him and his staff
and vehemently denied that he or tiie paper contained any left wing
leanings. Furthermore, he said that the procedure was undemocratic
since he had no opportunity to defend himself at the meeting.
Only one of the editors was retained. Vivaimey Therrien remains in
his former position, while the new editor-in-chief is Dennis Bousquet.

Montreal (Special) — Unani-
mous approval of a plan to bring
a group of Russian students on
a visit to Canada, was given by

real delegation at NFCUS con-

or of the motion there. Two

'.awmen Veto Soviet Visit

The question of whether Russian students should be brougrht to Canadian universities,
eived a definite answer from the school of Law which decided on Friday night that they
fuld not be invited. The lawmen gave five reasons for their decision, the first of which
Js the fear that the issue might result in a serious split amongst the universities be-
[^ing to the National Federation of Canadian University Students (NFCUS).
So far Victoria, Emmanuel, and Music have voted in favor of the visit. Tripity has

Flanked by an escort of the Loyal Cannon Guard,

and planning. Another special
group of about seven people will go
around to the different colleges and
faculties to sell the campaign and
solicit tlieir support.
The assembly representing re-
sponsible representatives of each
college and faculty used for ths
All-Varsity Aid campaign last year,
will be abolished. Instead the focus
of the campaign will be on per-
sonal canvass working through the
college and faculty student gov-
ernments and using their year and
course structure, he said. Reason
for not using the special campaign
assembly is to prevent an "un-
wieldy body of campaign officials".
Personal canvass also will involve
a large number of students working
on the campaign.
In hw report Amistrong stressed
that the personal campaign would
be the main source of funds be^
cause of complaints last year about
the duration of the drive and
various means by which student*
were hit for contributions.
However, he said that colleges,
faculties and campus clubs will b«
asked to run some of their normal
events for the benefit of the cam-
paign. The main emphasis will be
placed on these events, while the
publicity for the proceeds to the
campaign will be as unobtrusive as
possible. This is another method t«
stem some of the resentment from
last year that students were being
canvassed more than once.
Official poblicHy for the cam-
paign will be handled by special
branch of the committee, he said,
"since unofficial reporting tends
to be inaccurate or out of spirit
with the campaign."
No comment was offered on ex-
actly who would get the money,
what they would get and how
much. Arznstrong explained that
the committee had not had enough
time to decide on these points bat
added that a clearcut presentation
of them would be used as a basis
for the campaign.
-Vhis campaign will also colnclda
with the national ISS(WUS) driv»
for funds as recommended at the
annual iSStWTJS) conference held
recently at Hamilton.
Coincident with the student cam-
palgn, money will also be solicited
from the faculty and private bmi-

Dean Bissell
Speclol rates lor students
Professor Bagnani of the Classics Depaa'tment re-
cently commented to me,
"Claude Bissell is an up-and-coming young man."
And the latter's list of achievements is an excel-
lent commentary on this opinion. At present Dr.
Bissell's posts include acting as Assistant to the
President of the University of Toronto, Chair-
man of the Humanities Division of the School of
Graduate Studies, and Dean of University College
Men's Residences.
The dignity or these posts, however, cannot dim
his pride in his accomplishments as an undergrad-
uate. He cherishes a little clipping which describes
a lacrosse game. It mentions the star, discusses the
various plays, and adds, "so-and-so, so-and-so, and
Bissell played well".
Tall and slim, witli wellbrushed black hair and a
iharp I'ttle moustache, Dean Bissell has a bright
sense of humour and a quick understanding. As
guai"dian and general godfather to 64 young men,
the problems he has been asked to solve range
from course difficulties to the rehabilitation of ex-
servicemen after the last war.
"Tm rarely used in the capacity of love trouble-
shooter", the Dean ruefully said. "But it's very in-
teresting watching the developing romances, though
they are strictly outside the area where I operate."
Born in Meaford, Ontario ("a hallway-stop to
Toronto for my parents wlien I happened to ar-
rive"). Dr. Bissell entered University College in
1932. in the Old English and History course. He
was editor of the Undergraduate (the college mag-
azine before the current fad for conservation of
'n:,me), and is the
: hy author of a poem printed under a pseudonym.
A voir af'T rrSflTiation, he joined the staff of
the college as a teaching- fellow in English. Then
he went to Cornell for his doctorate. Two clever
19th century cartoons of Charles Darwin and
Thomas HuMey which hang in his office (Huxley
in a wonderful bulldog attitude) are reminders of
his thesis on Evolutionary Ethics.
In 1942 Dr. Bissell, "having trained in the rigor-
ous school of the C.O.T.C.", joined the army. He
went to Europe one month after D-Day with the
Argylle and Sutherland Highlanders of Canada,
with whom he was stationed "for alphabetical
reason". After cessation of hostilities he retinned
to England "ostensibly to take a course, but really
to get married. I made up for the lack of Scot-
tish blood by marrying a Scottish girL**
Then, after several mooths at Khaki University,
y university of Toronto. As assis-
tant to Dr. Smith, Bissell acts as general liaison
officer between the administration and the faculty
and students. Since he teaches two English courses,
a happy balance seems to have been worked out
between his administrative and academic duties.
"Each supports the other", the Dean pointed
out. "Each mate different demands and act as re-
lief to the other. Administrative work presents im-
mediate problems needing quick solutions, and
gives a feelinrj of ac:omnli5:^ment, while the aca-
demic branch works more often as a long-term en-
deavour."
One of Dr. Bissell's courses is on Canadian let-
ters. "We need a new approach in the realm of
Canadian culture. We ask too many rhetorical
questions. We need, rather, a deUgled, careful
analysis of what we have. As far as needing a shot
of intellectual whiskey,,' he said, refering to a
comment made by a French delegate to the recent
International Student Seminar, "a general absence
of the catastrophic revolutionary quality is part
of our whole tradition. Our great qualities are
compromise and reticence, and even an ironic
self -depreciation."
Dr. Bissell glaneed out of his office window at
an unimpressive example of potential Canadian
architecture, a large muddy field covered with bits
of steel, paper and car tracks.
"It's not very exciting as yet," he said, "but that
Is the proposed location of the new School of
Nursing. The view will undoubtedly improve when
plans are completed."

Seek Council Investigation
Of Fee Rise, Bursary Fund
. A motion requesting the Students' Administrative Council to seek clarification of the
University s policy regarding the reasons for the recent fee increase was passed at the
meeting of the External Affairs Commission last night. Also included in the motion was a
request that the SAC seek official clarification of the bursary system amounting to $115-
I Ji ^^^^u «^"^\time as the tVe^ ncrease last spring. As yet no information
g^into effect ^ '"''^ ^ "^^"^ ^""^ P'^" ""'^^
The idea behind the bursary fund was to assure that no student with ability would ba
denied an education because of lack of funds.
Incentive for the motion presented by Joan Presant. Ill UC. chairman of National
Federation of Canadian University Students (NFCUS) committee on this campus, came
from a recent letter from the University of British Columbia. It requested co-operation
trom the members of NFCUS in lowering of the cost of higher education
The NFCUS committee at UBC was mandated at the annual NFCUS conference held
m September to make a survey of costs of education across the country and to present
proposals for assuring equality of opportunity for higher education in Canada.

, drinking^ out of a mug which has not yet been stolen by collec-
ors. It is supposed that the thieves use them as flower vases and
laving^ mugs. A number have turned up in Hart House Theatre,
no doubt being- used as stage properiles.
Through student action, the
president of the University of
British Columbia has agreed to
recocnmend a fee decrease to the
university authorities. He told the
student council recently that the
decrease would not equal the 530
rise announced in the spring but
"will be large enough to ease tiie
minds of the students."
Miss Presant added that through
the motion, it is also hoped to
discover the university's position
with regard to a possible fee de-
crease.
The reason for requesting the
SAC to obtain this information,
she added, was because it is the
elected and representative student
governing body. As such, a request
affecting all the students of this
university should be made through
the facilities which are already set
up within it, she said.

feather Fair Is Cancelled
Have Direct Appeal Instead
The withdrawal of several faculties from participation in the Feather Fair (which

vice Commissioner of the SAC, Miss Irene McLellan, to recommend cancellation of the fair.
Those students who desire to contribute to the Red Feather campus campaign might do

Coffee Expensive
As Mugs Missing
Mugs are still being stolen from
the tuck sliop in Hart House, in
spite of complaints made last year.
The manager of the tuck shop,
George Marshall, has no idea how
many cups have been stolen this
term. "As far as I can guess," he
says, "they are going as fast as
ever — maybe faster".
Asked if this contributed to the
increase in the price of coffee, he
answered, "I'll say! These cups are
34c each, and we buy them by the
gross."
I^ast year, several hundreds of
these mugs were missing, according
to Hart House officials.
It is interesting to learn just
what becomes of the mugs. Some
are surreptitiously thrown away
after the adventure of stealing has
palled, some are used in apartments
and residences for drinking pur-
poses, some even become flower
vases.
If these thefts do not stop, or at
least decrease appreciably, the price
of coffee will inevitably keep rising,
said tuck sh<^ officials.

November 17, at 8:15 p.m. in Con-
Tocation Hall.
Dr. Gilbreth believes that the
answer to all problems facing us
today seems to be teamwork, team-
work in the home, hospitals, fac-
tories, welfare work, and in fact,
in all fields. According to Dr. Gil-
breth, recognition of the import-
ance of spiritual and human
values must go hand in hand with
scientific developments if the
needs of the world are to be met.
Dr. Gilbreth was bom in Oak-
land. California. Since her gradua-
tion of the University of California
with the degree of B.Litt. she has
received degrees from many of
the outstanding universities in the
United States. At present she is
President of Gilbreth, Inc„ con-
sulting engineers in management
and is a fully qualified industrial
engineer and engineering consult-
ant. She has also served on many
committees and commissions in-
cluding the War Manpower Com-
mission, and the American Council
on Education. She has also writ-
ten a great many books on man-
agement, time study, and motion
study, some in collaboration with
other well-known authors.
family)", said Durant.
period, they fall into habits of
promiscuity. Is it surprising, then,
if they continue these habits into
married life, and transform forni-
cation into adultery?"
He suggested the parents give
dowTies to their children, so that
the youngsters can afford to marry
early. Durant mentioned that he
had given both his son and daugh-
ter $5,000 presents at the time of
their marriage, without any ill
rffects for the children.
By safely channeling the sexual
instincts during this ten-year
period, Durant believes thai mar-
riage can be placed on a much
happier ground.
He added that ne need not de-
spair about the condition of our
morals, since, looking at history,
there was a period of moral re-
laxation at the peak of every civi-
lization, as people moved from the
country to the city. Durant pointed
as examples to Athens, to Augustan
Rome, and to the Rome of the
Renaissance.
Durant analysed the changes
which came about in the institu-
tion of marriage as the basic
economy of our society changed
from hunting to agriculture, to in-
dustry.
In the hunting stage, he said,
men had to be greedy, because of
the insecurity of their way of life.
The death rate was high, and
women had to be made mothers as
often as possible. This, coupled
with the primitive reverence and
care for pregnant women, neces-
sitated polygamy.
Then, as man settled down on
the farms, woman changed from
merely a biological to an economic
asset, as slie helped around the
house and farm. "She provided
man with a slave who did more
than any slave would, at only the
loss of her name," he said.
The children were also economic
assets as soon as they were old
enough to help with the chores.

Women of the university may attend the Sunday evening con-
certs if accompanied by a member of the House,
many children as possible, Durant
said.
Because of the economic cost of
eight or nine children, and the
equalisation of the death rate of
both sexes, monogamy became the
dominant form in an agricultural
society.
People married early to have
many children. As a result pre-
marital chastity was the custom.
A strong religious belief added to
the stability of these marriages,
Durant added. Marriage became a
sacrament. This was strengthened
as the farmer watched the miracle
of growth.
During the Industrial Revolution,
people left the neighborliness of
the small town tor the anonymity
of the city. They felt that they
could do anything, Durant said.
Religion died, as factories and
offices substituted for it the idea
of mechanical cause and effect,
and eventually the worship of sci-
ence.
As religion declined, so did the
moral code which It supported.
Morality became a "calculus of ex-
pediency", he said ; a matter of
Can I get away with it?"
This was aggravated by the fact
that persons training for profes-
sions had to wait a long time be-
fore they could marry. "Thus the
most developed persons mamed
the latest and had the least chil-
dren, while the least developed
married the soonest and had the
most children. The educators
struggle to teach a class which
tries to cdntracept itself out of
society's bloodstream", said Durant,
New Courses

At Manitoba
Manitoba (CUP) — The Univer-
city of Manitoba has introduced
several new departments to its cur-
riculum. These include the follow-
ing: the Department of Judaic
Studies which offers two courses,
Modern Hebrew and Jewish
History, The Manitoban reports.
This -new department is the only
one of its kind in Canada and
there are only four in the United
States. The library is to receive a
collection of Judaic works found in
Europe after the war and which
the Nazis had confiscated.
Art Review
The current exhibition of Aba
Bayefsky's work will hang in the
Hart House Art Gallery until No-
vember 25. 1951. It consists of a
number of black-on d-white dry-
points, three monotypes and _a
number of large oils.
Abe Bayefsky is. to our knowl-
edge, the only Canadian painter
whose work reflects almost ex-
clusively a social consciousness.
However, his motives are not so-
cial-political commercial or sensa-
tion-seeking, but purely Iniman. He
lived the life of an average Toron-
tonian until he was exposed to
both the active and the passive as-
pects of the war. Sinctejhat time

New Director For Bob Revue
Because the Bob Revue was not incorporated in the constitution of the Victoria College
Union last year, producer Terry Lawson was able to donate ?20 from the show's profits
to the Vic Drama Club. Social director Alec Gigeroff questioned the legality of the dona-
tion, as he did not think Lawson should be allowed to give away the show's profit on his
own authority.
The status of the Bob Revue was
explained by president John Dcv-
ereux who said that Lawson had
the right to walk off with the
$100 profit as the show had not re-
ceived a grant from the VCU and If

He edged over to the spot where they would finish their dance, and

They made small talk and danced the next ten dances. She told him
impressed she was with life at a big university, and how wonderful
erything and everybody was, and how sorry she was she didn't go to
liege, but hved in a small town in southwestern Manitoba (whose
he had never heard before), and that the bus home was leaving at
30 that night.
Why thank you, she would be very grateful for a lift into town, and
would her girl friend, probably, except that her girl friend was Jiving
the practice house, and thus wouldn't be going into town.
Just then she caught her girl friend's eye; the practice house in-
bitant had her coat on and had to get back to help make dinner and
anks lor the visit, and come back to Winnipeg soon.
He spurned the lift-seekers as he passed the bus stop, the little

After supper they got into the car and he headed back towards the

"The problem of the sexual
psychopath is a live topic today and
has even been Avritten into the
Criminal Code". Dr. Gray told a
meeting of the Law Club last night.
Dr. Gray, an assistant professor in
psychiatry at the University and
eminent authority on medical juris-
prudence, was lecturing on the
'"Sexual Psychopath". After he had
graduated in Medicine at Toronto
he went to Osgoode Hall from
which he graduated in 1935.
Dr. Gray defined sexual psycho-
paths as a group of people com-
monly called "sexual perverts" but
whom he preferred to refer to as
sexual deviates". He pointed out
that their conduct was only a devia-
tion from the normal and that the
psychiatrists viewed it quite ob-
jectively. "As anyone knows, who
has read Kinsey. normal morality
may be wider than what most
people consider," the lecturer con-
tinued. "It may vary from country
country or from generation to
generation."
Dr. Gray focused his talk on two
aspects of the problem — the need
for study of the individual offender
and the flexibility in administration
of justice with regard to the sen-
tence passed. "Legislation in the
past aimed at the protection of
society by putting these deviates
in jail," he said. "But many sex
offenders are neither dangerous nor
are they serious social nuisances,
The spealier went to on.3ay that
some of the "deviates" respond, ex
tremely well to medical and psycho-
logical treatment. "Imprisonment
does nothing but remove him from
circulation for a time." be added
Dr. Gray spent most of his time
reviewing case histories of sexual
abnormality. The problem, he felt,
was to divide those that can be
treated from those that cannot.
"The sexual psychopath is a varie-
gated group." he said, "some are
dangerous and do require to be put
in penitentiaries, but some will
benefit from treatment."
The part of the Criminal Code
that dealt with sex offenders was
criticised by the speaker. The
psychiatric examination of offend-
ers charged with an abnormal ?fex
act as required by the Code could
not be reliable in the short time
called for and with no proper
equipment. Secondly, the Code
eitlier sentences the offender to a
long term or it provides for acquit-

The questions of honor rings and
honorariums for the staff of Acta
Victoriana were discussed at gi'eat
length during the four hour meet-
ing. It was finally decided to pass,
the expenditure oT $200 for honor
rings and to allow Acta to give a
$20 honorarium to the managing
ed Itor.
The assembly decided to cut $35
from the 5T2 and 5T3 class grants
because of tUe decrease in the bud-
get, but at tJie same time increased
by $20 the amoimt given to the
Liberal Arts club. It was decided
that the Liberal Arts club needed
$20 to fulfil its program and that
the club did not have any way to
raise money from its members as

Hockey Blues
Chopped Again
The thirti player cut lor the 1
hockey Blues took place Monday
night bringing the sl""",*'''^
.more manageable size ol 24. Two
surprises were encountered in the
release of two of last year's team,
notably Bill Yeo and Doug Dies.
It isn-t that their hockey ability
has deteriorated but rather that
Coach Bill Wade has an over
sbundance of good forwards.
It is liltcly that even more of
last year's team will end up playing
In lower ranks this year.
Jack McKenzic heads the list of
newcomers and is showing very
well at centre between two veter-
ans Ernie Frey and Al Conboy.
Another forward combination that
j£ clicking well is the one with
Pete Vernon and Norm Fox
centred by another newcomei'. Red
Stevens who has returned to this
country from playing In the
Scottish league.
A hustling trio of last years' in-
termediates are still fighting tor
regular positions on the team. This
line finds Sandy Davison at centre
Hanked by Bob Logie and Jim
Wilkes. On Monday Wade experi-
mented with another line com-
posed ot Bennett. Jack Wcldrake,
wi ex-Marlboro, and Johnny Adams
who has returned from football to
don a pair of skates.
Jerry Henderson and Don Rope
are two other forwards still to be
considered. Rope, who P'^ed for
St. Mike's Majors last year, is st U
busy with soccer but is expected to
show up some time this -week.
seven defencemen are still vying
tor the four regular positions. Joe
Kane and Gerry Fltzhenry are the
only two holdovers from the 1950-
51 intercollegiate champions. John
Pingland, who played a couple of
games for the Blues as a forward
last year, has switched back to
defence. Jim MacWn, Paul Pren-
defgast Fasan, and Moreau are
the other hopefuls.
Wade has retained tour men to
guard the twine. Veteran Doug Orr
and last year's intermediate goal e
Jack Ross are the leading candi-
dates for the position. However
they will have to fight it out with
Bruce Tavlor and Gord Bates who
p'ayed for Skule last year.
■With the opening game less than
a month away (Dec. 7th against
McGiUl the team is bearing down
at their daily two hour practice
sessions. Last week an unfortunate
incident occurred when the wallets
of several players were rifled and
a total ot $1900 removed. As yet
no trace of the money has been
found and it is not ocrtam whether
the blame can be put on some
voun.. rink rats who frequent the
arenJ in quest of everything from
pop bottles to broken sticks.
Pitching
Sportshoes
Soccer finally got under way
again after last week's rash of
postponements, and three games
were played yesterday on the still-
soggy front campus. In the day's
top match Trinity A blanked Sr.
Vic 3-0 after running up a 2-0 lead
in the first half. Rowan, Clarkson
and Cater, were the Red » id Black
marksmen.
Trinity B's were not so successful
as tiheir brethi-en as Pre-Meds
handed them a 2-0 setback. Kra-
molc was the whole sliow for the
doctors as he was responsible for
both their tallies. In the day's oth-
er game Knox and Forestry battled
to a 1-1 tie, both teams scoring in
tlie first half. Kucosinski fired the
lone Woodchoppers' goal whUe Mac-
Kinley scored for the Ministers on
a penalty shot.
Lacrosse action saw SPS 1 out-
score Vic I 11-3 to take over the
lead in their gi"oup with four wins
against one defeat. The Engineers"
scoring was pretty well divided as
Byrnes netted three and McKay.
Dewar, Walkey and Cruise garner-
ed two. Rush' with two and Finch
with one were the Sc-arlet and Gold
marksmen.
The Knox lacrosse men kept roll-
ing along as they downed Ti-in B

legiate ftotball season can kick up its heels and fade into
the past in a matter of 48 hours. Less than four days ago
ihe Hues won the Yates Cup and completed an undefeated
ieaso,; on the same afternoon, and yet .^^^'de from a few
die-hards in the Athletic Association and the team itsett, it
seems that the old football atmosphere on the campus has
completely disappeared.
It seems hard to believe that 10,000 students can get
themselves as wrapped up in something as they do m
watching a football season roll by, and then forget the
whole thing faster than you can tell about it.
Of course there are always the discussions through
the winter about that tremendous tackle that Steve Ones-
chuk made in front of the timer's bench as George Klein of
the Redmen threatened to break loose around the end, about
the stellar Une play of Marsh Hames last Saturday aftei-
noon, about the play calling of Lie Lawson, and about the
defensive plays of Bob Garside, a defensive back who has
earned the respect and admiration of every ball carrier in
the Intercollegiate league.
Somehow or other, this whole season seemed to be doom-
ed to the status of an anti-climax after Varsity's defeat of
of the Mustangs in the second scheduled game of the season.
The Mustangs have been the symbol of Intercollegiate
supremacy for more years than most of us care to recall,
and to the fans at least, their manhandling by the Blues
here in Toronto was something to behold.
Masterson and the team were the first to point out
that beating the Mustangs was merely a step in the right
direction, but the whole attitude of Blue fans for the rest
of the season seemed to be, "I told you so. Even the
win over the Kedmen last weekend was accepted with a
touch of the inevitable. There was none of the wild excite-
ment that characterized the last Varsity championship in
the 1948 season.
Perhaps we are getting, on the strength of two victories
in four years, the same attitude that has been prevalent
in the minds of Western students for some years back.
Maybe we just take a championship for granted?
Maybe we shouldn't complain about that?.

twice. Varsity had only to win yes
teixlay's game to stow the cham-
pionship into the Hart House
Trophy cabinet. The Intermediates
play one more game against Mac,
but only prestige is at stake as the
little Blues will seek to remain
undefeated this season.
Yesterday's game opened with
both teams slithering and sliding
in the mud. but the Intermediates
soon got used to the conditions,
and began showing the Macmen
how to play the game as the short,
sharp passes of the Blues ha.d the
McMaster team sliding around on
their rear ends. The combination
of Mat Derzai, and Al Bowler on
the right wing was particularly ef-
fective as they consistently threat-
ened the Mac goal. Occasionally
the McMaster forwards got going,
but they met with a strong defence
in the shape ot Don Rope, and
Doug Quirk, and Tom McCann, the
Varsity goalie, was rarely called
upon.
However no goals were scored in
the tiist half, and both teams went
into the second half determined to
get the first goal. It was the Blues
that scored first, when Al Bowler
pounced on a loose ball in a goal
mouth scramble, and tUcked the
ball into the net to make tlie
1-0,
The next chance for the Bin
to add to their score came y
Mao defender fouled in the i
area, and the Little Blues s^.
awarded a penalty. Howie Ashb
blasted at the net, but the
goal keeper saved the shot a-'
cleared the ball up the field.
The tmal score came when
Logan got loose on the left ^
and shot at tire Mac goal. '
Marauder goal keeper sprawl&l
the ground, and the ball sqiii
through the mud to just cross ,
goal line by six inches. McVaji
made a few vain attempts to ;
back in the ball game, but fa^
as the whistle blew to end i
game.
Mac were not without
though as the two twins. Pete ati
Mike Johns played well at iii^
right, and centre halt, with -
MacDonald turning in a good
at left toack. For the Little

Baby Blues Play
Queen s Saturday
For the first time in many years,
the Western champion Varsity foot-
ball Intermediates will meet the
eastern champion Queen's Comets
for the Eastern Canadian title. The
Baby Blues will leave Toronto Fri-
day afternoon. Kick-oft time is
slated for 2 o'clock Saturday.
The little Gaels lay claim to an
unbeaten season in the Eastern
division. The Blues were defeated
twice this season. Cobourg edged
them 4-0 in a pre-season tilt and
OAC upset them last week 13-0.
However, competition may be a lit-
tle stifter in the West. This fixture
may be an indication of tilings to
oome. Perhaps Queen's finally have
a team to lift them out of the dol
drums.
There were four women's bas-
ketball games scheduled tor the
OCE gym yesterday evening. The
contest between St. Hilda's I and
PHE I was postponed as the Phys-
ed girls had an important meetmg
at Whitney Hall.
In the tuts that were run oft.
oft St. Hilda's Sophs were beaten
by the UC Sophs 17-11 in a close
contest. The score was knotted at
7-7 at the halt, but the Red and
White girls pulled away in the sec-
ond as their passing attack began
to connect. Anne Greey and Hea-
ther Chipman played well for the
winners while Mimi Bell was a
Standout lor the Saints.
POT seconds were soundly
trounced by Meds 42-9. The Meds-
women took a 10-1 lead in the first
quarter and kept going. Joan El-
liott Ruth McCree and Marge
Platts shared the scoring tor the
winners, and Ruth Beaton played
well tor the losers.
In the final tUt, St. Mike's A de-
feated POT I 40-17. The Physots
kept up their opponents in the first
quarter but then the Mllkmaidens
got rolUng and pulled away. Kay
Shenk led the winners with a 22
point effort, while Joan Storey
was good on defence for the losers.

aliy goes to almost three pages in the Penguin
edition and which only Shaw would have dared
to write, for Don Juan to say — "Pshaw", lit is
guaranteed to bring down the house) but it never
came. I was heart-broken. The other laugh is at
the punch-line of a very long running-gag about
fencing which is too long and involved to go into
here, but it is a shame that it was missed.
To criticize the acting of such an illustrious
group as the First Drama Quartette may seem pre-
sumptuous of a very young theatre-goer, but the
performance was not perfect and I miglit as well
say where it was not as strong as it might have
been. Both Miss Moorehead, in her very thankless
part, and Charles Boyer in his very exhausting
part, had not enough of the Shavian attack in the
first half. Admittedly the play has to rise to climax
but I felt that there would have been more consis-
tency if Mr. Boyer had really been sick of the
Devil and all his tribe at the begirming and not
saved all his disgust until later in the evening.
However, to do Mr. Boyer justice, when he hit
the clihiax in probably the most impossible speech
in English drama, he was superb. The perfect con-
trol of his voice, the variety of tone, the rhythm
and forcefulness that could only come from a
good continental actor — all became apparent. These
things were there throughout of course but im-
fortunately we, being so deaf to such eloquence,
did not notice it until the actor had such a dif-
ficult speech to give. Miss Moorehead, in spite of
any criticL5m to the contrary, gave a charming
and elegant performance that was in keeping with
the whole production.
Cedric Hardwicke was the scene-stealer of the
group. None of the long intellectual speeches were
his; all he had to do v/as be very funny. Almost
every line was a laugh and he got every one and
a few more-miUting lines as they were meant to
be milked. He also used the few movements allow-
ed the actors to the very best advantage. If this
is ham-acting, why can't we have a lot more of it.
The final and most resounding praise is laid un-
ashacnedly at the feet of Charles Laughton — the
director of the show and the most gentlemanly
Devil that ever existed. Existed is the only word.
Laughton was mincing and petulant,' seU-assured
and urbane, intelligent and opinionated; his polit-
ical speech about beating Heaven by a constitu-
tional majority was in the grand manner. Yet so
attracth'e was he to us all that we could not but
realize why he was the perfect Tempter.

Not wanting to see the poor edi-
tor unhappy, an obliging staff
member wrote the sad, sad story
of 32 students at the small Nova
Scotian college of Marshaven who
were imprisoned following a fresh-
ie pow-wow. He gave consider-
able detail in the report, outlming
the comments of Marshaven's
police chief, Fergus MacFarlane.
and of student president Ross Ban-
quo on the incident.
In the next issue another staf-
fer followed up the story with an
even more sensational account of
a jailbreak in which the impris-
oned students were "sprung" by
fellow college members. This was
written in equally comprehensive
news style with quotations from
several history honors students
who were against this flouting of
law and order and from college
president Rev. Andrew Dundoon,
who was against everything.
There was only one thing wrong
with the stories. The incidents
did not happen. Ross Banquo.
Rev. At - Dundoon, Founder's
square. New Hebrides, and, in
fact, the entire town of Marshaven
do not exist.
The writers had expected that
mosE^ students would realize this.
At least one Canadian university
group is picked up by police ev-
ery fall and events almost iden-
tical to those described occurred
in an Australian college town two
years ago. But the places and
names (many of them straight
from Macbeth) were meant to be
an obvious take-off on the Mari-
time Scottish. The quotes from
authorities were meant to be as
typed as the speeches of Good and
Evil Angels in medieval moral-
ity plays.
Mach to snc writers' embarrass-
ment, most Manitoba students
took the stories at face value.
Member papers of the Canadian
University Press even picked up
Ihe story and reprinted it as regu-
lar CUP news for their readers.
The Manitoban is sorry that its
innocent humor was taken so ser-
iously. To the students of Man-
itoba, the members of CUP. and
the nonexistent students and towns-
folk of Marshaven, we offer our
humble apologies.

Man Bites Dog
The Engineering Society is worried about The Varsity.
This particular worry comes at an opportune time.
At its meeting last night, the Society asked its Students'
Administrative Council representative, Doug Sherk, to pre-
sent a motion to the Council asking The Varsity to give a
specific policy in writing on news reporting and publicity
for anyone who might be interested. This written policy is
not to be ratified and the Engineering Society, as far as
we understand, merely wants to know how The Varsity
handles news and publicity.
• The publicity part of it is simple. About one hundred
mimeographed copies of a brief outlining the policy on
publicity are in The Varsity news office for anyone who
wants one. This is the second printing of the publicity brief
ths year. It was distributed in September to all campus
organization including the Engineering Society.
News is another, matter. As in all things there is a
policy. Stated as simply as possible it is this:
News consists of reports of events. These reports
should be accurate, unbiased, and as objective as pos-
sible. Some events, according to the principles that the
editors follow, are more important than others, and are
consequently given more forceful presentation.
/ That about covers it. The important thing of course,
is the set of principles which the editors follow. These are
clear for The Varsity.
The Varsity is essentially a service to the students of
the University of Toronto. The responsibilities of the editor
and the staff are to the student. The Varsity must take a
large number of events each day and from them choose what
it considers to be the most important to the community.
From these it prepares reports outlining the relative value
of those events for presentation in the paper each morning.
How does one decide which event is most important?
One criterion is interest. A small event in point of size and
number of participants may hold a wide interest.
But for the university paper there is an additonal task.
It is not enough to distinguished between events which are
of wide interest (such as a football game) and those of nar-
row interest (a meeting of the Russian Circle, perhaps) . There
is also the problem of picking out those events which honest-
ly reflect the activities of a thinking community, of a uni-
versity. There are events which though they may seem
unimportant in a narrow view, in reality mirror important
trends in student thought. To tl^pse we attempt to pay
more attention,
' What all this means is that an At-Home, even though
it may involve hundreds of people, becomes quite unimpor-
tant as news, while the latest speech from a cabinet minis-
ter, who draws a crowd of only thirty-seven, is headline
material. And if on the day that the cabinet minister speaks
President Smith decides to resign because he disagrees with
the Board of Governors, then the cabinet minister is out
and Dr. Smith makes the headline.
Or, in another field, what students have to say about
jrisiting Russians is more important than publicity for a
campus show. And gets a different presentation.
These are the principles upon which the editors of The Moscow,
yarsity make their decisisn. The application of those prin- d^ided by the Soviet Minister of problems ot the day. Instead ot
ciples is fluid, because the importance of events and their Higher Edueation that four soviet ^J»^S>? S ?he

Editor, The Varsity:
Why was last Thursday's open meeting of NFCUS
called? Mr. Syd Wax. them aln speaker, claimed
that the main purpose of the meeting was to dis-
cuss the broad outline of NFCUS activities in the
international scene; he deplored the "sensational-
ism" of the Varsity which had led students to be-
lieve that tlie discussion would centre around the
proposed visit of Russian students to Canada. Mr.
Wax did not lay all his cards on the table. In the
address he gave on Canadian participation in in-
ternational student organizations, he proceeded to
give indirectly all the arguments in favour of the
NFCUS stand, at the same, time claiming that any
discussion of the question was not the pui-pose of
the meeting. It became clear that his real aim
was to justify, not to discuss, what might be call-
ed the NFCUS Blunder.
Some of Mr. Wax's ideas seem rather odd. As a
reason for our not supporting the tour, he stated
that Maritime and Western universities might be
opposed. This is no reason to ask students of the ,
University of Toronto to vote against the tour,
since a referendum of Canadian universities can
succeed only if students vote according to what
they feel on the issue, not if htey vote to appease
what may well be minority groups. I£ the majority
of Canadian students are in favour of the tour,
then NFCUS should take heart and change its
stand, VlOiy is NFCUS afraid?
We were given a variety of reasons.
We were told that the sponsoring of such a tour *
might tint the campus a bright pink in the eyes
of downtown businessmen who would cease to help
finance our studies or employ our graduates. Per-
haps this is true; but it should not deter us. If
there can be any home of idealism in the world
today, if there can be any place where people fight
for what they believe in, is it not in the univer-
sities? We are, of course, dependent on outside sup-
port; but we can do without the money of those
who want to govern the thinking of university
students. They can only stultify the search for
truth.
We have been asked to believe that the brevity
of the tour will not allow a real interchange of
ideas, that we shall «;arcely have time to see
these students or these students us. Yet, at the
same time NFCUS supporters argue that the tour
is inadvisable since it may give Russian students
a chance to convert muddled Canadians to Com-
munism. Either of these arguments may contain a
grain of truth; together they are vaguej^
tra4iictory. When we realize that it is not^'*'
this tour but likely the whole field of relatiot^
with Russian students that is in question
worth of both arguments Ls clearly small,
is throwing dust in our eyes.
S
We have heard that Denis Lazure had no
ity to extend an invitation on behalf of Ctm '
students. This is regrettable, but it does not ma[, '
It is as irrelevant as the question of financing*^'
return tour to the Soviet Union, as the problejt, *
ho J/ much is to be gained from this particm'^
tour. It is a petty reason indeed for the ruae^ ^
of withdrawing an invitation which was airpj
accepted. '
We have not been told what I believe to \
real reason for the defence of the NFCUs stanj
that NFCUS is terrified of admitting that it i^,
have made a mistake. Mr. Wax wishes to
save hi,
face. There seems to be no other valid e.Kpiandii/
for the confusion with which the whole issue lu
been clouded. The arguments NFCUS has given
have been dug from deep in the barrel; in general
they seem to be cowardly, worthless or irrelevaEt
They need not concern us. What really mattery ^
that Russian students have applied to come on
tour of the universities of our countries, a ton
which need not include those universities whici
are not in favour, a tour which need not wejkf;
UFCUS activities in the national field, a t,,
which will likely cost nobody a red, or even
cent. They have appUed. Do we want them?
The answer to this question is critical, It is
merely this particular tour that is at stake, but
possibly a large number of tours, exchanges ani
other worthwhile international students activiiifs,
This tour by itself may not accomplish wonderj,
but tours of this sort and other exchanges could
not fail m the long run to be of value. For tbt
last five years, NFCUS has given lip-service to»
theoretical co-operation with the Soviet Union,
but has lamented the impossibility of putting
much as a dent in the iron murtain. At last there
comes a slight hope. The result: cold feet, tha
blame for which is shifted onto downtown buai
nessmen and western universities whose attituds
Mr. Wax considers frightful, but whose cxampls

■ 'X:\-\e action was unconstitutional." declared Don
t,eU Forestry. He quoted the SAC Constitution,
wiiich states that the Executive Committee "shall
empowered to deal with minor routine matters
in order to expedite the work o£ the CouncU, but
qhall have no authority where matters of genreal
' licy are concerned."
BeU arffoed that the decision to hold the pep
j-iiiy. in spite of opposition from University College
whose musical revue was being held the same night,
was not a "minor routine matter." Therefore he
said, the Executive had no right to reverse the
deci^n.
At one point a motion of censure on the Execu-
tive Committee was on the floor. This was with-
drawn when the Council was told that If the
motion passed, the Executive would be forced to
resign.
Bud Trivett. Law, defended the action of the
Executive Committee, '-It was a forward step in
student self-government." he said. "We took action
ourselveij. rather than leaving it to the Caput to
settle.
Furthermore. Trivett said, the cancellation of a
Pep Rally is not a matter of general policy, but is
a specific situation. Thus It comes under the juris-
diction of the Executive.
He emphasized that the action was not taken to
punish the student body, but "to show the sincerity
of the great bodu of students who don't approve or
vandalism, and nave very few ways to express
their disapproval."
The Executive Committee also reported th9
results of its investigation of the painting episode, ■
It reported that the following facts have beea
determined:
1. Those responsible for the painting are a group
of University students.
2. The number In this group was from seven to 15.
3. From evidence presented to the Executive
Committee it is indicated that some of the stu-
dents involved are from the junior years in the
Faculty of Engineering. It is Impossible to identify
the persons involved by name or year.
Trinity College reported that four or five per-
sons were Involved in the painting of the Trinity
front doors, that seme of them wore fing#r-tip

A list of translators will be set
up by tlie Student Service Com.
mission of the Students' Adminia-
ti-ative so that manuscripts that
may be of value to students can
be translated. The Commission was
empowered to set up the list by
the SAC last night after Professor
Helchelheim had suggested to, the
commission that a bureau of trans-
lation should be set up under the
auspices of the SAC. Prof. Heichel
heim felt this was properly an SAC
project and not a University one
and that no expert guidance is
needed to organize the bureau.
The greatest number of transla-
tions would be in French, German
and Italian. Additional transla-
tions would l>e needed in Emtch,
Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Ice-
landic, and Yiddish. Also required
would be persons who can translate
Spanish, Portugese, "Roumanian,
and Latin; Hungai-ian and* Finnish;
and Slavic languages of Russian,
Czechoslovakia n, Polish. Croatian,
Serbian and Bulgarian; and in ad-
dition ancient and modern Greek,
Arabic and Hebrew.
The student translators would be
paid by those who would benefit
from the various translations. For
example if one translation would
be sufficient for a group of stu-
dents where each student could
contribute a small amount but the
total money collected would be
large enougii to pay the translator.
To set up the Usi of students the
Student Service Commission will
contract the heads of the various
language departments and also will
seek competent translators through
publicity in The Varsity,
It was i-ecogni:j2d by the commit-
tee that a formal course of scudy
in a language does not necessarily
equip one to be an expert transla-
tor and that there will be some stu-
dents fluent in some of the lan-
guages who are not enrolled in a
language course.

until the SAC Radio Committee
Chairman was assured that Mar-

Paul Forestell, St. Mike's, ques-
tioned Martlno's appointment on
the grounds that if Harry Rasky,

tlno were still "not on speaking

sions would be impossible. Rasky
is the moderator of the discussion

Edgar FuUar, Wye, suggested
that if Martino's appointment were
deferred it would probably destroy
the Round Table discussions.
Graeme Ferguson. Vic. replied that
the intent of the motion was to
get Martlno to co-operate with
CKEY.
Elinor Strangways, Managing
Editor of The Varsity, said that
the paper had received a letter
to the Editor from Martlno which

Forestell said that there would

the letter today (Wednesday) so
that the members of the SAC could

the Rasky story.
"The letter dealt with past Ills-

main telephone -telegraph cables
between Toronto and Montreal. Tho
thieves released the cable from
a pole, which dropped tho
wire to the ground and then cut
through the wire, near Pickering.
The loot would have been worth

Jim Broughton, in Vic. official
ot the Blue and White Society,
gives these facts and figures for
the curious mathematicians and
philosophers who throng this Uni-
versity.
Seven hundred Tweepers were
sold at their debut. On the follow-
ing day, at the Queen's football
game, six hundred met their happy
owners.
Some Tweepers were hawked by
errant •■newsboys" on the Western
train. Finally, three hundred
greeted the champion Blues last
Saturday.
As was expected, V. ot T. fans
found a fantastic variety of uses
for Tweepers. The Blue and White
"fly swatters" are now regarxled by
many as regular features of a

Now, after the football season,
the Tweepers have become house
decorations at Vic residences and
at some fraternities. The Blue and

has met with reasonable success
and looks forward to its revival

University of Toronto would give
us the oppwtunity to study their
attitudes and observe thehr reac-
tions towards institutions and prac-
tices we take for granted," de-
clared Bloom in giving his opin-
ion of the proposed visit. "We
would have the oportunity in talk-
ing to them of being able to learn
something of what makes a Soviet
student tick," he said, "and per-
haps to allow some doubts to enter
' their minds as to the complete ac-
curacy of all that with which they
have been primed."
Miss Janecek in making a state-
ment lor The- Varsity, remarked
that the visit "would be unwise
from the Russian point of view
rather than the Canadian, because
it isn't the Canadians who are
going to fall for Communism but
the Russians for Democracy once
they have seen it. From the Cana-
dian point of view it would be very
good to start to impress the mean-
ing ot democracy on the undemo-
cratic world," she said.
Speaking for the a((irfnative Mr.
Benazon pointed out that "the
purpose of bringing Russian stu-
dents to Canada must surely be to
increase understanding between
East and West. By bringing them
to a provincial university such as
the University of Toronto," he
continued, "we will not be achiev-
ing that purpose since it is doubt-
ful whether Russian students
would get to know more thaJi a
very few Toronto students, and
moreover they could not \
get a conception of howr Cai_
as a whole think and live [
such a narrow standpoint.'
"If these students are hi
picked." noted Don Michel,
UC, speaking for the govenm
"in the same maimer Russia fi-
picks her U-N. delegates, ant

Ia fact, the more magazines, the

so the higher the quality of avaU-

The special book to mark the
centenary was put together over
the course of the summer. It was a
hectic task according to all mem-
bers of the editorial board. Employ-
ed in various sun\mer jobs they
were scattered at points ranging
from the Atlantic to the Pacific
seaboard. The result was many an
anxious moment, for instance when
one entire chapter was lost in the
mail. Many an hour was spent in
digging up historical background
material and many an additional
hour was spent by those still in the
Province in rushing down to Toron-
to for conferences. Over a hundred
dollars had to be spent on phone
calls.
The result of this frenzied read-

Saha*i Hears Speech
On *iVeft? Mteveiaiion*
"Why a New Revelation " was the
subject of a talk given by Mrs,
Peggy Ross at the open meeing of
the Baha'i Student Group yesterday.
"All religions have the same es-
sential truth," said the speaker, "but
the Baha'i message has been broad
ened to meet man's greater capacity
at this point in his evolution.
"The central theme of all the
great religions is salvation and re^
generation. Baha'i can project its
faith into the reahn of collective
social action."
Using the analogy of a ladder to
illustrate clearly the principle of
Progressive Revelation she said that
in climbing the ladder we must place
our feet on every step and we must
not stay long on any one step or
we wUl block the progi'ess of others.
It was further suggested that the
Revelation of Baha'u'Uah is the next
step on the ladder which must be
taken by mankind.
SAC At A Glance
Besides criticizing the Executive
Committee, setting up a translation
bureau, and refusing to ratify
Rocky Martino's appointment as a
Radio Committee Director, at its
meeting last night the Students'
Administrative Coimcil:
— decided that the Brading De-
bating Trophy could keep its name.
A motion was made to request that
the name be changed, because it was
felt the trophy (for debating com-
petition between four Canadian and
four Scotch universities) would be
used for advertising. Said Graeme
Ferguson. Vic. "If we request this
change, we will be duty bound to
request the Athletic Directorate to
play no more games in Molson
Stadium.'' The moLlon was defeat-
ed with only one dissenting vote
— and that only because the voter
moved the motion.
— thanked Student Service Com-
missioner Irene McLellan, Nursing,
for her vain attempts to hold a
Feather Fair, in spite of the weatli-
er.
— commended The Varsity for
the lack of editorializing in its new«
columns.
— heard Publications Commis-
sioner Doug Sherk suggest that if
any groups are having public re-
lations trouble with The Varsity,
they try to settle them by seeiny
Editor Barbara Browne.
— decided that the International
Ball would be held in Hart House
on December 7, under SAC sponsor-
ship.
— decided to send $1000 to tha
National Federation of Canadian
University Students (NFCUS) as a
part payment of the current fees
I which amount to about $2000 for

— decided to make ground*
available so that they newly-form-

and promised to supply four park-

World Gov't Ideal
Must Be Practical
EAC Says
Plans Begun
For Carabin
At its bi-weekly meeting the Ex-
teL'Dal Affairs Commission beard
the following from chairman of
the various committees:
— that 55 women but only 21 men
have applied for the Carabin
Weekend. Twenty men and twen-
ty women will be chosen to act
as hosts when the University of
Montreal group visits here from
December 6 to 9. A committee
composed of Warden fenatieff,
Graeme Ferguson, chairman of the
EAC, Joan Presant, NFCUS chair-
man, Peter Alley, ISS (WUS)
chairman, and Dorothy Leiber-
man, in charge of the Carabin
Weekend.
—that the Host Committee is plan-
ning a small weekend at Caledon
Hills farm for a small gi-oup of
Foreign and Canadian students.
The chairman asked that all for-
eign students who would be inter-
ested in this and similar activities
should have their names put on
a list at their college or faculty
and forwarded. She also learned
that there are about 500 foreign
students on the Toronto campi.
About 200 of them are Americans
studying at St. Michael's College.
— that information about travel-
ling overseas tliis summer cannot
be expected before January first.
Yyes Pilon, permanent secretary
treasurer of NFCUS is attempting
to establish a travel service but
will not have completed arrange-
ments till that date.
World government is an ideal
for which we must strive, Mr. M. K.
Gelber told a meeting at Hillel last
night. But we must consider tha
practical poUtics of the world in
which we live. Mr. Gelber was
speaking on "UJi. and the World
Order".
Nationalistic states are Jealous
of their prerogatives and find it
difficult to give them up for tho
sake of world authority, he said.
"We must face the problem of
population," he said. The popula-
tion of south east Asia Is increas-
ing at such a rate that it Is un-
likely that we can raise th=
dard of living appreciably by tha
efforts of the Colombo plan, ha
added. However, he continued, wa
are morally obUgated and may not
withold assistance. The real prob-
lem in south east Asia is an In-
creasing population. Mr. Gelber
wondered if it is within our power
to relieve it. This economic prob-
lem is increased, he added, every
time we lower the death rate.
The Russians have used the veto
indiscriminately in the UN. ha
said, but they did not create it.
The veto was suggested by tha
United States to secure suppwt
for the United Nations from the
isolationist sectors of their popu-
lation. Although the veto has
harmed the the prestige of the UN,
he said it was a necessary con-
cession in order to get the member-
ship of the major powers. The
powers of the general assembly
have' been e-xpanded. he added,
when world peace is at stake and
the Security Council is hamstrung
by the veto.
Mr. Gelber said that the United
Nations has no independent power,
but is dependent on the support
of its member nations.

However the advertising depart-

printed the ad themselves.

two weeks ago that something

If there weren't so many grown-
up films popping out these days,
a Swiss import FOUR IN A JEEP
(at the Astor), might be getting a
much bigger p'ay. This is a worthy
movie on an off-beat subject.
The four in a jeep ha^e nothing
to do with FOUR JILLS IN A JEEP.
Hollywood product about USO
touis. Instead of curvy Ameiican
pinup blondes, these four are MPs
stationed in Vienna, from four dif-
ferent nations. This quartet make
up the International Patrol which
poUces the small central Inter-
national Zone in the city. The gov-
erning ol this No Man's area is
taken over by one of the four powers
month by month. ,
This month it is Russia's turn and
that is why Soviet MP Kvavechenko
is sitting on the jeep driver's right.
The driver is American MP Long,
because the US Army owns all the
jeeps used by the International
Patrol. In the back seat completing
the foursome are Pasture of France
and Stuart of Britain.
The producer of FOUR IN A
JEEP, Lazar Wechsler, is also re-
sponsible for THE SEARCH, in
which the young unknown Mont-
gomery Chft starred in the story
about DP chUdren. Wechsler m-
eludes European flavor which makes
FOUR IN A JEEP a happy event.
What FOUR IN A JEEP says, Am-
erican films could not say: the per-
spective is so different.
The International Patrol gets in-
volved with a young Austrian woman
(Viveca Lindfors) who is anxiously
awaiting the repatriation of her
POW husband from a Russian camp
in Hungary. The attitudes and re-
actions of the four men are varied
ani reflect their national character-
istics. More subtly, the relationships
between the four occupation powers
are defined in the relationships
between the four in a jeep,
and Frenchman watch, shrugr,
or trying to make peace.
I have said this picture
The POW does not retarn on
schedule. He has escaped. The Rus-
sian military are al worked up, the

Kravechenko is given "orders".
Long and Kravechenko do not get
along. They had first met each other
on the Elbe as the 1945 war end

drunken friends. Later the relations

folk-music of various sorts, but
ag<aln they owe their interest to
the subtle alterations of the regular-
rhythm of the tunes and dances on
which they are based. Particularly
delightful was the Hillbilly Folk-
song. The song appears in the com-
position unchanged, but the ci-oss-
rhythms of the accompaniment
make its accents appear to fall in
the wrong places, throwing new
light on the orthodox old tune.
Mr. Dudley should be commended
for his brief introductions to the
music he performed. It is to be
expected that the artist himself will
know enoug-h about the music to be
able to tell his audience something
about it, but few artists seem will-
ing to do so. Mr. Dudley is a wel-
come exception, and his explana-
tions, made In a friendly, unpedan-
tlc way, added much to the enjoy
ment of the audience.

Fledermaus Revamped
In Broadway Style
The first showing to the gen-
eral student body of Warden
Ignatieff's personal films of Fin-
land will be shown today. The
fUm will be shown from 12:30
to 1:30 in the East Common,
Room of Hart House today.
The showing is part of a week-
ly series of films sponsored by
the Art Committee. Mr. Ig-
natieff's film on the Peace River
will be shown, and he will com-
ment during the films.
' Opera", said Dr. Johnson, the
famous eighteenth-ceniury lexicog-
rapher, "is an exotic and irra-
tional entertainment." Whether
or not we agree with tliis state-
ment as a eeneralization, it cer-
tainly applies to Johann Strauss'
Fledermaus. Irrational it surely
is— the mere fact that as In every
opera, characters are continually
bursting into song makes it so.
Exotic it also is— its scene is laid
in a place and time, in a state of
society that does not, and prob-
ably never did exist. People do
not pretend to be dukes and mar-
quises and get away with it nowa-
days; nor is a hangover quit« the
delightfully musical condition it is
made out to be in this opera.
It is, however, precisely because
it is completely "exotic and ir-
rational" that Fledermaus has
attracted and held audiences for
some three-quarters of a century.
In recognizing this fact the Dietz-
Kanin renovation of this opera cur-
rently playing at the Royal Alex-
andra scores its greatest success.
No attempt has been made to ra-
tionalize any of its hilarious go-
ings-on in terms of real life. Ra-
ther, instead of making the opera
more plausible, the producers have
made it less so. Not only do char-
acters burst into song— they also
burst into dance. Every bar of tfie
score has been used to suggest
stage groupings and movements
in the same way as it would in
producing a ballet. Some brilliant
"choreography" leads to extreme-
ly amusing results, achieved sole-
ly by co-ordinating the gestures
and movements of the aciors with
the orchestral accompaniment.
The second act particularly dem-
onstrates the effectiveness of al-
lowing the movements of the ac-
tors to be quite irrational, govern-
ed only by the music. A large
chorus is on stage throughout most
of the act, and Its members, un-
like ihose of most travelling op-
era-company choruses, can both
sing and dance. Some striking ef-
fects are achie^'ed. for example,
in the languid number towards the
end when everyone settles liimself
comfortably on the floor with
someone of the opposite sex. Par-
ticularly clever, also, is tlie way
the stage is cleared gracelully at
the end of the act. sustaining inter-
est land preventing applause i
right to the end of the inevitable '
dominant-tonic reiteration that
closes the act.
Besides applying to Fledermaus
the piinciples of good comic-opera
production in these days, Messrs.
Dietz and Kanin have completely
scrapped the old libretto, and
supplied the music with new text
and lyrics. One would need to
see the production several times
fully to appreciate their wit; the
lyrics particularly, are of a quality
that would have turned W. S. Gil-
bert green witli envy. Some of the
ga^s ill the dialogue seemed less
brilliant, but this impression may
well have arisen from the tradi-
tional unwillingness of a Toronto
audience to let down their hair
and laugh.
Although the production richly
desefves the praise heaped on it
by the New York critics last sea-
son, its realization here in Toron-
to is not always what one might
desire or expect from the Metro-
politan Opera Campany. ilt is. of
course, not the original New York
cast that is performing here, but
a new one recruited especially for
the tour.)
It is with ttie orchestra that the
chief fault lies. Strauss' music
imperatively demands a large or-
chestra; he is of the age of Berlioz
and Wagner, and his orchestration
is designed for ensembles ot sim-
ilar dimension to those used by
more pretentious composers. A
group of about 30 musicians can-
not do justice to it— inevitably, the
strings will be completely over-
shadowed by the brass and pt/cus-
sion. and the result will be tliin.
at times even cacophonous, and
a lot of interesting and amusing or-
chesiial detail will be wasted.
Since tlie transport of an adequate
orchestra is apparently prohibits
ively expensive, the conductor. Koz-
ma. ihould try to make the best
of a bad situation, and improve
the balance by judicious changing
of dynamics here and there. That
this is possible is demons! lated
every year by Mr. Goidsciiniidt
with the opera orchestra of the
Royal Conservatory. As it is,
however. Mr, Kozma has not suc-
ceeded in doing so.
The singing and action are of an
almost uniformly iiigh quality. Al-
mosi every singer's enunciation is
JuKiciently good to enable one to
hear the words. The voices too,
alihough not of tlie distinction one
often associates with the Metro-
politan, are good, and one never
feels that the music is too much
for them. Perhaps Brenda Lewis's
Rosalinda and Virginia Mac Wat-'
ter s Adele should be singled out
for special metion. Both of tUese
ladies sang tlieir difficult mut,ic to
perfection, and succeeded in turn-
ing two stock figures of the comic
opera stage Into real, living per-
sonalities.
Uhat sliould one say to the less
than affluent student who asks.
"Is this show worth going to see?"
The answer depends on one's point
of view. Anyone interested in
seeing a slick Broadway produc-
tion is well advised to go. even at
the rather exorbitant prices be-
ing charged. Prom a strictly mus-
ical angle, the show is a disap-
pointment.

A new company has been formed
in the country and like every new
company, it has prepared a dis-
play of samples of various styles
to send on the road in order to line
up prospective customers. The
reference is to the Canadian Na-
tional Ballet Company which held
its premier performance Monday
evening at Eaton Auditorium.
Les Sylphldcs won the opening
number and a fortimate selection
' It was. As a classic, and as a
standard item on every company's
repertoire, Les Sylpbldes serves
as a yardstick whereby one group
can be compared with another.
The corps de ballet gave a delicate-
ly styled performance, particular-
ly in the finale. Lois Smith and
David Adams, dancing troth solo
and together contributed to the
grace and classical simplicity of
the numbers. The prelude was
danced by Celia Pranca, former
choreographer for Sadler Wells,
who is now the artistic director ot
the Canadian National Ballet.
The main item of the evening
{■hul followed. Salome, was choreo-
graphed by Miss Franca who has
danced the title role. This was a
lush and ornate melodrama, en-
' trancing to watch. Miss Pranca's
[ Salome was a live and sensual
; figure, always in motion or in ar-
iresied motion.
In the Dance of the Seven Veils,
she sustained excitement through-
out, despite its length.
Judy Gotshalk's interperetntioB
of Herod, was a vigorous one. and
his preciseness foiled Miss Pran-
ca's fluid movements to just the
ripht degree. As the infatuated
young Syrian. David Adams played
and danced his part well. Natalia
Butko as the scheming Herodiaa
did not always maintain the bril-
liant peaks she attained at times.

Basketball Time Again
The sight of a crowd of hope-
fuls trying out in the main
Sjm at Hart House every af-
ternoon from 5.00 to 6.30 brings
back memories of the basket-
ball season last year. This bit
of action occurred during a
leftgue firture between the Mus-
tangs and the Blues in London
last winter.
Varsltr's Jack Gray la the mmm
with the ball, while big Bnd
Natanson (11> is keeping George
Wearrlng of tiie Mustangs in
ihe background temporarily at
least. Eddie Brennan <33> of
the Blues has his eye on team-
mate Gray, while Bob Phibbs
•f the Mustangs looks on from
the bHckground.
The Mustangs won the game
last year, but if the material
performing in Hart House these
nights is an Indicator, they won't
do It again.
Intermed Harrier Men Win
Bring Back Yates Cup
The Intermediate Harrier team,
after winning their championship
at Western yesterday and findrtig
that there was no trophy for it,
went up to Thames Hall after the
meet and got the Yates Cup from
the Western Athletic Association
instead.
The cup. which was won by the
football Blues last week, was not to
have been sent to Tporonto till later.
However, when one of the harrier
team, after tallting to Metras a
while about sp(Ml« in general and
Western in particular, jHped up,
"Say, how about giving us the
Yates Cup, eh?" Metras sent some-
one down tJie hall to get it. Much
to the surprise of everyone on the
team, the trophy was brought,
boxed and ready to be taken away.
Noting that the "Prom Toronto
Br BRUCE MACDONALD
Warren Stevens busted out of his office yesterday a(jj
noon and nearly ran us down in his haste to get some pi,,'
or other. "Hello" he said, "It has been a terrific seas«'
hasn't it?" We nodded our head in agreement and
to Western" address tags were stiU
on the box, someone started to take
them off. and Metras said, "Leave
those on, you'U need them next
year". A rather one-sided deal was
struck whereby if the tags were
torn off. the harrier man would
personally have to carry the cup
to Western next year if Western
wins it back.
Toronto won the 5-mile cross-
country race by a considerable mar-
gin over Western and OAC. placing
men first, second, fifth, tenth and
fourteenth. John Pike won in a
fast time. 26:27. and Mai Crawford
finished within ten yards of liim.

spent J
moment informing the worthy Athletic Director just j,,,^
much easier it was writing about a winning team than nuj.
ing excuses for a losing one.
When next year's team was mentioned, the twinkle
Mr. Stevens' eye grew even brighter. It seems that only j
regulars will be graduating come spring, and that prospejj^
to fill their shoes are almost plentiful. Bruce Johnson
freshman guard whom coach Masterson converted to an '^^
early in the season will be the only outside wing returninj
to the Blues next season, but a couple of ends taking thjj
apprenticeship with the Intermediates will be making thei,
names known in senior Intercollegiate circles.
Alec Lawson has played his last football game for tl.
Blues as well as Marsh Hames, a guard who turned in oneol
the best performances of his career against the Kedme,
last Saturday afternoon. Johnny Evans, team captain thij
fall, is graduating from Medicine this spring.
However, as Warren Stevens outlined, a complete back
field and enough linemen to give coach Masterson .some,
thing to start with will be returning to action provicied Hi
team spend enough time between now and next May huddlei
over a text book. We must say that it is the first time in
a long acquaintance that we have detected even a note o|
optimism in our friend Mr. Stevens'who was by far the raosl
nervous and least optimistic of any individual we have even
seen during the game between the Blues and the Hedmei
last weekend.
♦ •«> ♦
Coach Masterson of the Blues was handed quite i
bouquet in this week's issue of "Saturday Night". In a fea.
ture article by George MacFarlane of the Globe and Mill
sports staff he is alternately described as "one of the raoil
colorful monetary missionaries" to the game of Canadiai
football, one who dislikes the Canadian game of hockey wiH
"unreasonable intensity", and is one of the most imaginatiii
of football strategists.
The article is an interesting one from the viewpoiDl
of the Varsity student who has watched Masterson in actim
on Saturday afternoons and picked apart his strategy in the
Hart House coffee shop.

Editor. The- Varsity:
T think its aoout lime that certain ridiciflous
charg" anrimplicatlons made ™f' ,„*"to

now" have maintained patient f /'f ,Var«s
that the smaimess and nonsens.ty
^ni.lrl be lenored by most people for what tney
Sere But now I see that people like Miles Ken-
nX whose letter wa3 printed last Monday,
believe these charges to be true.
TTir^t of all there Is not and never was any
„taSlty between Harry Rasky and myself. I have
"ways had a deep respect tor Mr. Rasky's ability
^ a Iritir and as a news editor. This respect was
dee^ hat I am fimJy convinced that Mr. Rasky
fs the finest news editor in town. But I hmiestly
felt that Harry was not the best moderator in the
world.
This was an honest criticism luUy Justified by
reports given to me by various people^ With all
Sue deference to Mr. Rasky's abiUty the tK^iHon
of a moderator Ls a difficult one that could better
be handled by an expert in the field ^der d^-
cussion. It was my belief, right or wrong, that the
best method of handling a progiam of this sort
would be to have Harry produce the program and
possibly announce it, but to have a different man
act as moderator each week. This man would be
either a public flguie or a professor. The general
idea was to have an expert in each field moderate
the discussion concerning that field.
An Incorrect report was printed in The Varsity.
This report purported to have said:
(1) That I had already gone to the station and
had Harry Rasky replaced as moderatxjr.
(2) That I was willing to be the moderator
myself.
This' report was copied verbatim from a tran-
script of an SAC meeting. It was supposedly true.
It wasn't.
No such report vas given by me and j
see how anything other than mistakes in Ita,,
or In Interpretation could have been made, \%
What I really said was;
(1) No definite time had been set by Mj. j,
and myself in deciding on a radio Umc i""*!
■ program and that he was to take the niatu \\
with the prograjn director on his return \M
vacation. A tentative time of Sunday evenL
established by myself and Mr. Rasky In cr
tion during the summer.
(2) That I was going to approach the stan
director with my idea of shifting the moderat!:^
of inviting some noted figure -as a Perina?*!
moderator. I did not say I was committed to i?
but merely that I waa considering the idea ^
(3) I did not offer to act as moderator, i
I used the expression "ten foot pole."

Rock, Marti,,
Grad Studio,
We have always taken for granted that the CBC was
free 'to carry out its pohoies without government inter-
ference But the events of the past few months prove the
limitation of their freedom. As a result of Vr^'^^^'XTtC^
section of the public, their policies will be considered by the
Parliamentary Committee on Radio.
This investigation is largely the result of the machin-
ations of an organized pressure group, beaded by variotis
Catholic newspapers in Quebec, specifically The Ensign .
They have been joined, incredibly enough, by The United
Church Observer" and Dr. B. K. Sandwell. Strange bed-
fellows all round!
The primary object of their wrath was a series of talks
given by F™d Hoyle, Cambridge mathematician and theo-
Sical astronomist, on "The Nature of the Umverse But
then Dr. Brock Chisholm (there is no Santa "aus) "nd
oth"; sr^akers further annoyed the Christians in their talks
on "Ma^'s Last Enemy-Himself". The culmination of all
?his was a series by Bertrand Russell. By this time the
Ch,-i"«ans who, if they were incoherent previously were
. now totali; Tncapable of registering their opinions with any
degree of pertinence or canity.
The basis for all their arguments seems to be, quite
simply, that it is unforgivable to carry unchristian material
over the CBC.
"The Ensign" called the Hoyle broadcasts "a blatant
and brazen provocation of Christians, paid for by Chris-
tians". The up..hot of "The , United Church Observer at-
tack seemed to be that, however much rf igious Programs
were appreciated, unchristian opinions could not be tolerat-
ed Sandwell made some irrelevant comment to the etfect
-that the "CBC should not hurt people s feelings by talking
about Christianity in such tones".
From such statements the non-listener would ,get the
impression that Hoyle spent long radio f"°""""?
Christianity in every conceivable manner Actually, Hoyle
as a scientist, was little concerned with religion, but rather
with his theory of continuous creation. Perhaps this rapid
by-pi\,ss of relig(^ is hurt most.
After Chisholm and Cameron had been similarly charged
with unchristian opinion, there was hardly enough venom
left to attack Bertrand Russell. H there had been less com-
petition, he would have called forth a blaze of rhetoric.
But the whole effect of the Christian accusations seems
to be achieved by taking statements out of context and turn-
ing them into atheistical tirades. As the liberal Catholic
"Prairie Messenger" observed, the speakers were scientists
and "the cities accused them of making unchristian and
anti-religioui statements".
The whole controversy indicates the fgar of an influen-
tial element of Christians of hearing other viewpoints, it
is almost as if thev believed that religion could not survive
the so-called attacks of a series of half hour broadcasts.
And the most dangerous aspect of the whole discussion
is the proposed manner in which the Concerned Christians
have succeeded in dealing with the delinquent CBC. Through
pressure exerted on the Parliamentary Committee on Radio,
the whole matter is to come up for discussion.
Yet the CBC, if it is to f uncfion in the future as well
as it has in the past, must preserve its independence of
parliamentary control. While it is in every way possib e
to criticize tlie quality of its programs the question of its
policy must be left for it to decide Otherwise it m.gnt
become as narrow and bigoted as certain Cathelic and Pro-
testant elements aeem to desire.
So
There !
Editor, The Varsity:
English, English, English. This
is all I ever hear. Several days
ago I was compelled to undergo
an examination in English Com-
position. Needless to say I, like
many others managed to obtain
a mark under 50%. Is there any
reason for such a grade? I thinfc
there is. First of aU there were
ten words to deline. This' to me
is an absurdity. Do you know
how many words there are in '..he
English language? Well there are
approximately 6d8.000. How just
the English department is to test
our knowledge by asking us to
define ten of these. Many in this
university were brought up in a
medical, mathematical, or scien-
tific environment. How many of
the English department members
can define kaleidoscope, mter-
Itinesis, and meiosis. Now don't
run for your Oxford pocket dic-
tionary Mr. Dean for I can think
of many more, and also dejine
them.
Then there was another part
of the test and that was the
punctuation of sentences. I doubt
that I can call them sent-ences,
for to me they were more like
small paragraphs. In my life I
have never came across such sen-
tences, and never hope to. Most
students in this university have
been studying English, for more
than twelve years. They have
managed to pass examinations
qualifying them to attend such
places of higher education. Now
that we are here we are told we
cannot understand or write Eng-
lish. Yet this rare English de-
partment can correct our errors
by a series of approximately ten
lectures. If I graduate after this
I certainly hope that I do not
have to use such sentences as
these in order to prove that I
have a university education.
Another task we were com-
pelled to do was to write a pre-
cis. It is everyday I f4nd post-
graduates running about writing
one or two precis. Nothing better
to do than to write a precis to
pass the time away. That is what
I always say. My father graduat-
ed from university many years
ago and he still writes a precis
before retiring in the evening.
A university education in my
estimation is the learning of
practical knowledge plus some of
the greater literature of the cen-
turies. Its use, I may state is use-
less. How popular one is every
time he meets a friend and comes
out with "Do you know that
Browning's Fra Llppo is ".
It is my suggestion that the de-
partment of English teach us to
read and write according to OUR.
needs and not acordlng * to
THEIRS. I might also suggest
that not all .students in the uni-
versity are enrolled in that sacred
course of HONOUR ENCMUSH.

because we are not at war with
them yet. We must consider Ger-

be for us next time.

Union Start
Seek OK For Campaigning
As Union Plans Forge On
By IAN MONTAGNES
— Vorsify Staff PhoTos by Teo Sparrow.
1 its first meeting of the year, the SAC Student Union Commitlee
[ejected 3 proposal to renovate the old observatory, pictured above,
student union building. In the lower picture, the Committee's
tliairm.iQ, Cliff Wilson, Architecture, is seen reading the report which
Iroposed a student and alumni canvass to raise the necessary money to
■uild the union. The observatory may be used yet — as a campaign
ieadnuarters for the fund drive.
Wednesday night saw what may well be the
greatest forward step taken towards the erection
of a Memorial Student Union Building since a
Union Committee was first formed on the SAC,
three years ago.
At Its Wednesday meeting, the Council passed a
resolution to immediately investigate all ways and
means in which money can be raised. Plans include
a campaign among the students and graduates, to
find the funds which have always been the stum-
bling block in Union plans.
The Council is going to ask the University
authorities for permission to start a collection
amongst the student body for the building. More
important, should the University agree to such a
proposal, it would be a commitment from the
administration on its approval of a co-educational
union on the campus.
So far such approval has been wanting. Last year
the University had an ex-pert in such unions come
up from the United States to investigate the situ-
ation on the Toronto campus. His report was
submitted to the Univer.sity last soring, but no
action has been reported on it. The report was
described by Bill Gibson, last year's Union Com-
mittee Chairman, as containing little new material,
as "just saying with authority what the Council
had said before."
The report (by Edgar Whiting) stressed that it
is the responsibility of the admmistration "to pro-
vide adequate facilities for extra-curricular activ-
ities for all students." It also said that for business
reasons the need is for an all-Varsity co-
educational union as opposed to separate college or
faculty unions.
Proposed site for the new building would be on
the plot south of the east wing of Hart House, bo
that the kitchen facilities oi the men's union could
be used in the new building.
The decision, Wednesday night, is the first step
taken by students towards raising money for the
Union. Up till now the main student work has
been in drawing up plans for -the building, while
the financial end has been left to the University,
Two years ago, it was estimated that the cost of
the smallest union possible would be about $600,000.
President Smith intimated at that time that the
University would be able to raise that amount
from the surplus in the building fund. Since then
the cost has gone up, as building costs have
skyrocketed.
Last year, however. Dr. Smith told the Council
that the money he had suggested could be used
for the Union was almost completely gone, Rising
building costs had cut the surplus down to $100,000
and that would be needed for buildings alteady
under construction, he said.
This seemed to leave the student union without
any funds. A general feeling of depression set in.
Now the students themselves are seeking per-
mission to go out after the money,
The Student Union Commitiee hopes to raise
money both from the student body and the
graduates. In order to interest the grads. it was
suggested, Wednesday, that in addition to office
space for the Council, the proposed union could
contain offices for the Alumni Association, and
accommodation for graduates.
Even though the money collected this year might
not be large, it would be a start, the Council
decided. A trust fund for the union could be set
up with the money.
The idea of a Student Uoion dates back four
years to the 1947-48 session, when the Council
approved a proposal that a student union be bullfc
on a campus as a memorial to the University dead.
It was first suggested that it be built on St. George
Street. However, that site was dropped because it
would conflict with Hart House as a cntre of
campus activities, and would mean duplication of
the Hart House kitchen facilities. For these reasons
the site was moved to one adjacent to Hart House.
The union first proposed would have included
separate and co-ed lounges, check rooms, cafeteria,
coffee shop, private dining room, and a theatre or
auditorium. It was also to have housed the offices
of The Varsity, Torontoneneis, and the services of
the Council,

It is also rumored that all dungeon accommoda-

Warden NIckle I. Ignltlon-Off, when queried
about the presence of dungeons under Hart House,
stated: "Tlicy were provided in the days when
organization of poUtlcal cells was a popular under-
graduate activity, and they were not provided as a
bar to student freedom of impression." He further
categorically denied the stocking of turnips in the

discussion will follow and then a
vote. Dave Rose IV UC, President
of the Lit feels that since, "UC
contains so many diverse ele-
ments, since it is the largest arts
college, and since it is non-sectar-
ian, that the vote taken will be the
most representative vote pos-
sible.". It was also added that
an "enthusiastic interest is antic-
ipated'* and that this matter will
be taken up "early In the meet-
ing." The UC Arts Ball wUl also
come under consideration and Al
Strauss stated "I will defend the
poor working man who can't af-
ford a suit of tails." Questions of
decorations and' how many orch-
estras will also come up about the
UC Arts Ball.
The cleanliness of the JCR (Jun-
ior Common Room) will come
under attack and Strauss states
that "the JCR standing Commit-
tee will give its first intelligent re-
port in 23 years."
The freshman president will pre-
sent a motion to illusti-ate UC's en-
thusiasm toward the freshmen
orientation program.
An important event during tho
evening will be the president's re-
port. A statement of UC's posi-
tion with regard to the recent can-
cellation of the pep rally will bt
issued. A committee will also be
formed to decide a possible tang-
ible gift to the college.
This will be an important meet-

Probe Lack of Christianity
On Campus of Western U.
The University of Western Ontario is going to be investigated by the National Church
body on charges of barring religious representatives from its campus.
The Canadian Council of Churches decided to make the investigation at its ariniu
meeting in IWontreal yesterday, after charges by the Students' Christian Movement.
SCM National Secretary Rev. H. L. Puxley said that the bar doesn't mean students are
prevented from joining the SCM or professing their religion, but "it means that any one
with a religious message is not given access to the Western campus."
"I have waged every kind of possible warfare to change the situation at Western as
this problem is more important to us than the cold war or the Iron Curtain," the SCM
Secretary continued.
The charge was made during a discussion of the low ebb of Christian knowledge
among the general public and among the students. Puxley was attending the annual con-
ference of the Church Council as a delegate, as well as in his campus position.
— ^ It was finally decided to leler active profeasion of their faith.

Council for investigation, on a
motion by Rt. Rev. A. R. Bever-
ley, Anglican Bishop of Toronto.

Russian Student Visit Here
Gets Unofficial UC Support
■ The UC Parliament yesterday defeated the resolution that it would be unwise to allow
, ,iet students to study at the University of Toronto, by a vote of 64-9. In t,ie forced
elections which followed, Vern Turner, IV UC, was chosen leader of the opposition The
Parliament is an unofficial body. The results of this debate will not influence the
jgcision-
The first speaker for the affirmative, Don Michel, II UC, declared that nothing but
hostility would come from a meeting with Russian exchange students since there is no
basis for a compromise for the two different "minds" as they now exist
■■We have nothing to fear," stated Bert Bloom, IV UC, "let us weigh the relative folly
df failing to invite them thus providing propaganda for them." Bloom went on to say that
„e should display our views and better widen what goes on in the Communist mind
Grant Gibson, I UC, supporting the affirmative view, deplored the necessity of import-
ing students from behind the Iron Curtain when we have communists close at hand "You
jan have the Soviet Union and I'll take the student union," said Gibson in an aside remark
The second speaker for the government, Michael Benazon, II UC. said the Russian
students would feel out of place in this narrow, provincial, conservative sort of university
.■Can you imagine those students visiting the JCR at noon?" he said. Benazon ari'led that
the expense and language barriers would present great difficulties and that no one wants
to invite communist students to his home with the RCMP hiding across the street.
Inika Janicek, IV VC, and the second speaker for the opposition.* .
replied that if this is really a democratic country there is no reason for
j(,e police to watch us. Miss Janicek declared that there would be no
language barrier for the visiting students, as most students from eastern
Europe know two or three languages.
When Vem Turner, IV UC. rose to speak for the affirmative, he
upset proceedings by declaiing the government viewpoint indefensible
and then crossed the floor to join the opposition.
Far St. Mike^s
Almost fifty delegates represent-
ing some fifteen Catholic Colleges
and Universities across Canada ar-
rived at St. Mike's yesterday for
the Seventh Annual Conference of
the Canadian Federation of Cath-
olic College students.
Tlie Federstioot usually called
CFCCS was started at St. Mike"s
in 1946 and affiliated with Pax
Romana, the International Nfove-
ment of Catholic students, at
Rheims. France, during this last
summer. Suzanne McGrath, who
graduated from Loretto College last
yeiir, represented the' CFCCS at
Rheims.
The main aims of the Federa-
tion are the sponsoring and further-
ing of close relations between Catli.
olic Students and the defence .of
the interests of all Catholic stu-
dents.
Some of the highlights on the
agenda and program for this year's
conference are a banquet at which
Professor L. E. M, Lynch will speak
on "the role of a Catholic in the
University," discussions on Pax
Romana, and an address by Bern-
ard Ducret, General Secretary of
Pax Romana. Mr. Ducret. from
Pribourg, Switzerland, will speak
on the "Role of CFCCS in Pax
Romana."
The conference will continue un-
til Sunday night when the new ex-
ecutive will be elected.
Retreat
On November 22 to 24 the annual
retreat for university students will
be held at Newman Hall. Retieat
master. Rev. T. F. Tierney, C.S-P,
c ..jliasizes the purpose of a retreat,
to provide for the student a chance
to make a spiritual inventory of his
life, and analyze in his own con-
science how he stands in relation to
God.
Lady in the Chair
From the opposition side of the House, Ian Moritagnes, III UC,
stated that there must oe a spirit of internationalism:" if there is to be
no war. The gesture o£ extending the invitation Is important to show
tbat we are still open to cooperation, added Montagnes.
In a reply to a request to clarify the purpose of the debate, Al Strauss,
w-UC, stated that the debate was merely for the purpose of debating
End £or the interest of the topic. The official feeling of University College
towaids the question of whether or not to invite Soviet students to study
et U 0 T will be determined by the vote of the UC men's government

Norman Penner, LPP
Condemns CCF Policy
Norman Penner. LPP candidate
ioT York South, charged that "the
policies of the leaders of the CCF
have only confused, discouraged,
and divided the people in Ontario
and have opened the way for the
strengthening of the two old-line
parties." Penner further maintain-
ed that the CCF, Liberals, and Con-
servatives all agreed on the funda-
mental issues in the election and
that there was no real difference
between the three parties. "In-
deed," he said, "the contest seems
very artificial."
Peimer was speakini: at a meet-
ing of the campus Labor Progres-
sive Club. His topic was "Ontario:
The LPP and The CCF".

of the three parties. "As far as they
are concerned," he added, "this
campaign may have been conduct-
ed in 1925." This is a far cry from
the CCF Regina manifesto of 1939
Penner said, that opposed "im-
perialfst wars."
Referring to the three parties,
Penner asked how they could make
"such fantastic promises when so
much money is going into an econ-
omy that is geared to war. .
In the labor movement the CCF
has carried out a policy of raiding,
the speaker said. "Those unions
who did not endorse the CCF as the
poliUcal arm of labor were expelled
as Communist dominated," he con-
tinued. "Charlie Millard even ad-
mits that he spent $550,008 in try-
ing to break the International Un-
ion of Mine, Mill and Smelter
Workers."
Penner said that the LPP woQld
support the CCF when and if they
work for unity in the labor move-
ment. "A stand for peace and labor
unity was the only effective altern-
ative to the Liberals and Tories."
he declared. Penner has made an
offer to Jolliffe, the Ontario CCF
leader and candidate in York
South, to withdraw from the run-
ning if Jolliffe took such a stand
for peace and unity. Three CCFers,
he concluded, have already sup-
ported peace by negotiation, and
opposed rearmament, and as a re-
sult have received Labor Progres-
sive support.

Riddles are a sort of a question
with no agreed method of solving
them; therefore riddles are phi-
losophy, said Professor Sparshott
at the first annual meeting of the
University of Toronto Philosoph-
ical Society at Wymilwood on
Wednesday night. He stated that
philosophy is an art or capacity,
dealing cwivincingiy with prob-
lems to which no satisfactory so-
lution has been found.
He listed seven different types
of riddles, some of which could be
used to embarrass the person ask-
ed. Some liddles of this type
could be evaded, while other could
not, and some could even be turn-
ed against the poser.
Another type depends on puns,
such as: "Where was Moses when
the lights went out?" "In the
dark."

However, the really out-

t"it was given a full scale pro-

nce in Canadian theatre develop-
frint But I'affaire Ti-coq goes
Spvond this. It is especiaUy im-
Snitant because the history of this
nlay sheds a powerful light on the
Canadian theatre scene.
Mr. Gratien Gelinas, profession-
ally known as Fridolin, wrote a
olay of Canadian subject and set-
tiDg Fridolin had in the past done
oractically everything connected
with the theatre and had also pur-
sued a very successful radio
career as writer, director and ac-
tor. With experience, money and
a fairly talented group of actors'
M^duced a play named Ti-coq.
^nk back. Did you ever hear of
him at this stage of his career?
Not likely. Although his contribu-
tion to Canadian theatre had been
of quantity and quality, he was
iftrely ever mentioned by critics
and commentators even in -our
neighboring province. Whether
ttiis was because he worked in the
medium of the French language
or a result of a general apathy of
Canadians in recognizing their own
talent is hard to say. It is prob-
able that both elements were re-
sponsible for his anonymity. The
play was given in Montreal and
Quebec, and was popular in both
cities. 'In the former it set a seo-
saUonal record, (for Canadian
theatre), of two hundred consecu-
tive performances.
After a year the author reintro-
duced his play to the Montreal
audience in an English translation
and began to repeat his former
euccess. Did you ever hear about
liim then? No. Neither he nor
Ms play had been discovered or
appreciated by the dead repre-
sentatives of the Canadian press,
It is worth noting that while Frido-
lin and his play were a Canadian
success they were not worth re-
porting outside of the province in
which that success was made. It
was just another example of the
refusal of the Canadian public to
consider its own talent. But
&en what happened? This Cana-
dian product became associated

way was to accept a Canadian

play was performed. _
At this point I avoided reading
any more explaJiations. A certain

nlir L'affaire Ti-coq was sig-
^/«aiit, that It would act as a
^Jjtalyst lor the previously stunt-
nS, growth of Canadian theatre.
"ere was new hope lor Canadian
actors. There was an incentive
now for Canadian authors : a Canar
dian play was going to Broadway.
Study In Irony
The rest ol L'affaire Ti-coq is a
study in irony. The climax occur-
red when the play was presented
on Broadway. And here we had
the first ironical twist. Broad-
way, which had made the play Ti-
coq for Canadians, now chose to
break it. Abiding by their own
standards of artistic merit the
Broadway critics almost unani-
mously panned the play . After
three performances it closed. They
didn't like the awkward change
from dramatic comedy to melo-
drama. They realized the dispar-
ity of style in writing and acting
between the two halves of the play.
They felt that the reaUsm of the
first half reverted to a stylized
performance in a second. They
commended the charm and under-
standing treatment of the first
half but accused the author of be-
coming theatrically gUb in the
second. They questioned whether
the author had sacrificed his in-
tegrity of characterization in his
second act portrayal of Mane
Ange They felt that there was not
sufficient clarity in the perform-
ance because of the poor linguis-
tic ability of the French speakmg
cast in an EngUsh performance.
There were other criticisms, but
it is important to note that the play
was rejected for artistic reasons,
i e.. for not standing up to the ideals
or at least the averages of the
playwriUng craft. It was not re-
jected because the critics couldn t
understand or didn't sympathize
with the Quebec cultural traditiwis
and divorce laws.
And so Ti-coa was finished on
Broadway. What was the sigmfi-
cance of this? Well, it obviously
seemed an insult to the apprecia-
tive intellect of Canadian audi-
ences and critics. After all they
had gone overboard m their ap-
plause and critical accliUm. They
had made so much noise that there
w^ no turning back. En orcmg
then- tight Uttle mi"^^/;";.,^"^:
American prejudice and f^ntasUc
excuses they tried to give an ex-
planaUon of the play's failure af-
ter its glorious Canadian accepts
ance.
New York critics were besieged
with childish, angry letters from
Canadians who declared that
Broadway's refusal of the play
proved conclusively that New
York was insidious and decadent.
Others cried aloud that they had
been insulted beyond repair by
these critics and several claimed
that they would boycot any fu-
ture American plays on tour in
Canada. These petty mean actions
of the public were rivalled only by
the critics who now attempted to
save face. This was done in a
variety of nauseating ways. Our
most prominent new^spaper critic
blamed poor publicity, which of
course had no effect on the crit-
ical opinion which broke the play.
He went on to say that Fridolin
was unduly nervous on opening
night. This of course was prob-
ably true. But his nervousness
didn't affect the play writing which
remained constant and was the
main target of the critics' attack.
In succeeding columns he went so
far a^ to suggest that the failure
might be attributed to a jinx on
Misunderstood ?
These and other comments were
hard to t^ke. But the worst result
of this attempt at face-saving was
the famous Canadian excuse that
■'nobody understands us." This post
mortem excuse was supported as
much by Fridolin himself as his
critical undertakers. He came back
to Canada claiming that the critic-
al approval of his play depended
on the acceptance of the last act.
The acceptance of the last act in
turn depended on a sympathetic
under.stantling of French-Cana-
dian manners and morals. Now this
point is important. The Canadian
public presents a poor theatre au
dience lor for that matter a poor
audience to any of the arts) and.
as might be expected, there is a
dearth of intelligent, informed and
sympathetic critics to guide this
public. The meagre support of a
public n-jnibering a million in great-
er Toronto for the few productions
we have and a careful examination
of our few pseudo -critics will sup-
port this claim.
However let's forget these two
factions of the theatre and go back
to the one I am discussing — the
playwright. In this case it is Frido-
lin. Did he learn anything from
L'affaire Ti-coq? When he propos-
ed to make a grand Canadian tour,
he found that there weren't the
theatres to do it. He also ruefuly
admitted that there was too great
a dls-pariiy of opinion in the public
appreciation and critical comment
received in Quebec. Ontario and
New York. But there is a more im-
portant point than these. Ti-coq
is not the play it was touted to be.
but i": is not a bad play. No begin-
ning drama author need be asham-
ed of a work of this caliber. In
other words, we have a playwright
in our midst. But he, ignoring the
point that his play was severely
censured on the standards of tJie
playwrighting craft, joined in with
the public and critics to the old
Canadian wall of "nobody under-
stands us."
Now let me make it clear that
I do not hold the Broadway crit-
ics as gods hovering over the do-
main of Thespus. However, it must
be admitted that the Broadway
circle of critics reviews about nine-
ty productions a year and that most
of these presentations are origin-
al. In other words, they earn their
daily bread by criticizing new
plays as to direction, acting, decor
and especially on the dramatic
qurilities of the script. How many
p)fi}.=; riocf; tlie Canadian critic re-
view s. \ear? Very few. How many
are new. i.e., how many does he re-
view within the first few months
of t.heir struggle for existence?
practically none. I therefore claim
that, although they are by no
means jnfaliible. from the stand-
point of experience, < if only that),
we might do v,'eU to listen "to what
New York critics had to say. It
wou)d be of even more advantage
for himself, as well as his public,
if Fridolin had listened. But no,
he shed his tears, roared his de-
fiance and moaned his loss.
At Ibis point we come very close
to home. For reasons which escape
me, the University of Toronto pre-
sented Gelinas with an honorary
degree last spring. Now It has al-
ways been my idea that university
degrees, at least honorary degrees,
were not given away like quiz show
prizes. Let's assume they arent.
Then what is M, Gelinas" claim to
such honour? Is it his past en-
deavours and successes in Quebec?
Possibly, but you must remember
that his work in Quebec went prac-
ticnlly unnoticed by press, critics
and public. I.e.. lie was not yet as-
.s(x-iated with tlie magic name of
the USA. Why then the degree last
fall? Oh no. It couldn't be— but is
it? Were the powers that be in ihis
university intimidated by the hot
air and ballyhoo that surrounded
L'affaire Ti-coq? Did our great
sanctuary of wisdom, like our pub-
lic and critics, succumb to the
glamorous influence of the play's
Brofidway connection? But Ti-
coq :iopped on Broadway. Why
then tne degree? Fridolin has beat-
en his head against the brick wall
of public apathy to further tJie
progress of Canadian theatre. He
has written an admittedly attrac-
tive play. However, as already stat-
ed, most of his work has been un-
known and, further, his play is not
of any exceptional merit. Was the
university attracted and intimidat-
ed by all this noise? And, in view
of the play's failure.— was this de-
gree also a con.solation prize.

One of the most expressive faces In the Canadian limelight Is the
one above —c»U him Gratien Gelinas, Fridolin or Ti-Coq as yoo wilt
He was photographed at a press conference where he expressed the
opinion that if "Ti-Coq" had received better advance publicity, and
the right financial set-ap, it would probably have been a success on
Broadway.
Matter of Degree
I take my pen from the acid ink
and consider a moment. These are
impertinent and blasphemous
terms. I had better stop. However,
this university has, with a remark-
able lack of insight and with ag-
gressive ignorance of the Canadian
theatre scene, refused and consis-
tently refused to establish a chair
of drama on this campus. Is this
then their way of recognizing the
importance, the significance, of A
potential Canadian theatre? Their
way of supporting our theatre, it
.'^eems. will be like the rest of the
mob.
And so, I have a word for thosa
on the campus who think of some-
thing t)e6ides themselves. And es-
pecially. I address those who might
be interested in the theatre. Go
ahead. Strive for your goal. If you
manage to be recognized by some
faction outside of Canada then
Canadians in turn, shocked* by the
possibility Of talent in their midst,
will acclaim and support you. But
what if you fail in this other coun-
try? Never mind, you can come
back to Canada and sob with the
i-est iJiat "nobody understands us.*
But look up. Better days ahead. The
University of Turoiito might eiv9
you an honorary degree. Mind you,
they won't admit your possible ex-
istence -or make any attempt to
help you in the initial stages ol
your career. If you want to act,
then do it to the detriment of your
studies. If you want to study di-
rection, then that's just to bad.
If you look for training In play-
wrighting. then that's too bad also.
You won't even find a good course
in the history of ihe theatre at this
institution. But don't let thai get
you down. These matters are trivi-
al. Think of that possible degree.
Struggle and fight.
L'affaire "Ti-Coq" has more sigi.
nificance than that centering on
the play itself. It sheds a powerful,
searching light on the Canadian
threatre scene — its public, press,
critics, and even the attitude of
our own university. And what does
the glare show up? Something trag-
ic? No, the word tragedy could
never be applied to a situation M
cheaply ironical as this. If we tTf
to classify It, in dramatic tertns, we
will have to revert to the field ot
comedy — low comedy. L'affaire Ti-
Coq and the situation of our Cana-
dian theatre is, in terms of th*
drama, a farce — and a bitter faroe
at that.

they trounced the Medical twelve

bis first and second string with-

formed equally as well.
Vic half Ebiie Goodfellow . .led
his teammates witit a brilliant two
touQhdown performance. He and
John Bond were great offensively,
tearing off long gains off-tackle
and around the end on pitch outs.
Mai Frazor was also going well un-
til he aggravated an old injury in
the second half.
The Doctors never even came
close to scoring a major except
late in the second quarter when

of his foot at the Vic 25 yard line.
Wheeler threw a pass intended for
Btipcc which was incomplete and
then the half ended.
The Medsmen finally had sue- '

In Final Game
VO girls won the Intra-mura]
Mftbalt championship yesterday
when they defeated a determined
St. Mike's team, 18-12 at Trinity
Held.
The first two innings saw both
teams playing cautious ball with
two runs apiece by the end of the
second. In the third frame, St,
Mikes' batters were unable to con-
nect, but UC, inspired by a homer
jmashed by Heather Cttlpman,
walloped in 12 runs to put the
game on ice.
Tlie next two innings saw the
Saints' atempts to break into the

White fielders, with the PS squad
batting in three runs in the bottom
of the fifth.
The Double Blue started to click
in the sixth frame hitting in tliree
runs and holding the UC gals down

The Intramural football schedule is novv entering its
final week and it is about time to look at the playoff picture
as it is shaping up.
On the strength of yesterday*s 18-0 win over Meds 1,
Victoria's Scarlet and Gold clinched first place in Group I
and the right to meet the Group III winners. Junior SPS,
in the semi-finals. The Vicsters now have four wins and
one tie for nine points, three more than UC.
The 6-6 tie yesterday between UC and Senior SPS,
has really complicated matters. The present standings show
the Redmen in second place with six points, and the
Engineers in third, one point behind. Both teams have one
more game to piay, but the UC squad have the advantage
as they meet the winless Medsmen while Skule must take
on Vic.
If UC win their final game, or if SPS lose, then the
Artsmen will have the final playoff position sewed up.
If UC lose and SPS win then the Engineers will enter the
post-season play against the Group II winners. But if the
Redmen tie and the Engineers win or the UC team lose while
the Skuiemen tie, then there will be a tie for second spot in
Group I and a special sudden death game will be necessary.
The situation in Group II is almost as complicated, but
]t can all be solved this afternoon. Right now Trinity is on
A "V^^ *hree points behind,
and both teams have two games remaining. These two
squads meet today and a win or a tie will clinch the group
title for the Buttery boys. But if the Irish can come
through, they will pull up to within one point of the Red
and Black, and both teams will meet the winless Forestry
crew next week.
The Mikemen take on the Woodchoppers on Tuesdav
and if they win or tie this one (and it will onlv be played if
they win today) then Trinity will play Forestry a week
today. The possibilities in this group are too numerous to
go into detail.
If (here we go again). Trinity win this afternoon, and
Group I doesn't end up in a tie, then the semi-finals will
take place next Thursday, with the finals the following
Monday. Here the schedule makers run inio another prob-
lem and that is the Grey Cup final. The semis are usually
held as a doubleheader in the Stadium, but with the big
game on there next Saturday, the Bloor Bowl must lie
unused for the three previous days, which will force the
intramural teams onto the back campus.
But if St. Mike's win today or Group I ends in a tie,
then the semi-finals will not be until a week from Monday
and the finals the following Thursday, and the Siadium will
be available for all of these contests.
The ony thing that is definite is th-t Victoria meet
Junior SPS in the semi-finals. After that it is anybody
guess.
It was hard for the Engineers to
accept the tie as only 25 or 30
seconds stood between them and
win, but that was all the time UC's
Charlie Goberis needed to boot the
ball over the deadline and
the Redmen the tie. At that it took
him two Icicks to do it, as his first
boot from the 40 rolled over the
goaj line, and SPS elected to re-
turn the kick, which turned out to
be uiiHise. Enough time remained
in the game for Goberis to hoof
one over from the 20.
The Sknlemen drew first blood
in the second quarter, when Keith
Mowat plunged over from the 10 to
climax an SPS march from deep in
their own territory. Prendergast
and EUa had ripped through the
UC line almost at will to set up the
touchdown play. Kerr's convert
made the score 6-0. Skule threaten-
ed again before the end of the half
when Mowat recovered a UC bobble
on the latter's 40. A pass put them
in the 25 but UC held and the En-
gineers tried a field goal. The UC
line charged through and blocked
the kick just as the whistle blew.
UC stepped up their offensive in
the second half after Richardson
returned SPS' kick-off to the 20.
On the next play he dangled 20
yards around end behind good
blocking. BalpJi Brown, a consistent
ground-gainer all day, tried the
other end and found it to his lik-
ing as he rolled off a 25-yard gain.
SPS brought a halt to UC's march
when Ella intercepted Peebles' pass
on his own 20. After Brown retun,
ed a Skule kick to his own so
pass-out went awry in the Uc bact*
field and members of both team'
kicked and dribbled the ball doS!
to the 25 where UC managed u
nab it. -
A blocked kick in tne fourth
quarter led to the UC major. Afte-
a good UC boot put the En-ineers
on their 3, the Redmen bro.u
t(hrough to block the kick and re-
cbver on the 7. Brown bounced
through for the TD on the nm
play, but Peebles' try was low to
make the score 6-5 for the Yelloiir
and Blue.
UC got a break when another
blocked SPS boot forced them to
kick over again from deep in thei;
own end. With the minute flag
waving, the UC'ers made a detdr.
mined drive, which culminated in
Goberis' point. The disappointed
Skulemen had time for one desper-
ation pass which went incomplete
as the whistle sounded to end the
game.
Prendergast, Ella, Bowie, and
Sinder played well for the En-
gineers with the first two in par-
ticular standing out. John Riddell
spearheaded a hard-charging SPs
line that blocked four UC kicks.
Brown was UC's best with Richard,

jjalcony viewpoint
By DAVE PEDDIE
«nien students put on one-act plays such as the U.T.D.C. did last
day and Wednesday, it Is very easy for the critic to say that they
all bad. But even though the were generally bad I must admit
*^^fc I enjoyed them very much. The mistakes and blunders were never
-serious and the actors were obviously still learning and trying
^hefflselves out.
However, looking back on all six plays, there are some general
j _,s that must seriously be made. The worst fault on the whole
thflt too little work had gone into the shows. With the sole
was ^"^j^ I think, HELENA'S HUSBAND, all the plays looked like
needed another week of rehearsal so that people could become
they ^.^gjy lines and movements. In many of the movements espe-
the actors looked a little dubious about their positions. Usually
-r doubts were well founded for they were either awkward or in
phody's way. Another major fault was the speaking. Nothing can
^rl-iie an audience more than not knowing what is being said, and
^rtunately this was often the case. Either the actors were not
ftkin'^ joud enough, as in X=0, or they were speaking too quickly
bPt s]oppily- This last was most obvious in The Spartan Girl which
very funny when understood, but alas that was seldom.
It seems to me that these one-act plays could be much better if
time and effort were given to them. There seems to be plenty of good
Skule Nife
plays
that give students a chance to do something worth while without
esponsibility of a three-act play. There were good things done
but not all together in one play.
The setting of X=0 before the walls of Troy was superb and the
fttmosphere created by the playing was in keeping with the play but
no individual stood out from the setting. The acting of Margaret
Griffin as Doris In Famed Oak was realistic and very consistent. One
yajiy expects an accent or an attitude to fail somewhere, sometime,
but Doris was always Doris. The best acting of The Spartan Girl was
by Ron Williams but the others all caught the spirit of the play and
seemed to be having a wonderful time but, as mentioned already, they
didn't want to share it.
on Wednesday night, the highlight was a fine performance of a
faitner's wife by Marilyn Campfcln In Susan Glaspell's Trifles. This play
too, had good pacing and bulld-up to the climajc. The Purple Doorknob
Tfas a pleasant little comedy that was not outstanding but good. The
last pla-y of the evening, Helena's Husband, was the smoothest — with
no blunders and everyone playing together. Judith Cunningham was
very fimnyand carried off the acting laurels here.
As I said — it was bad but it was fun and I think that we can get
*W5t as much entertainment out of such a bill of one-acters as out of
any full-length play produced by students.

position of defending total abstin-

Straight Facts
We are going to write about the Russians again. Not
at any length, nor in loud voices, but to state as simply
as possible the questions which should be answered by all
colleges and faculties throughout the university.
Despite Victoria College's statements to the contrary,
there appears to be some misunderstanding as to precisely
what the students are expected to decide upon. And because
we believe the issue to be an important one, it seems emin-
ently desirable to avoid any confusion.
Here, then, are the questions as presented to the Stu-
dents' Administrative Council by External Affairs Chairman
Craeme Ferguson last Wednesday:
1. Are you in favour of having Russian students
' visit Canadian universities, specifically the Uni-
versity of Toronto.
2. Should the I'niversity of Toronto ask the
National Federation of Canadian University
Students (NFCUS) to re-invite the students this
year.
3. Alternately, should we ask NFCUS to invite
the Russian students next year.
The first question is clearly a matter of principle,
whether or not we are in favour of NFCUS sponsoring a
yisit of Russian students to Canada.
As to the second point, it should be explained that it is
still possible to re-invite the Russian students this year, at
a meeting between Western Student Unions and the Inter-
national Union of Students to be held this December. But
first the Executive of NFCUS must be asked to re-open the
question and to ask each university member to hold a refer-
endum on whether or not they favour such a visit. The
University of McGill has already requested that the issue
re-opened; our support would greatly strengthen their
stand.
Dependent upon rapid action, there is still a strong
possibility that the Russians could visit Canada this year.
If this is not successful, however, the alternative of asking
NFCUS to. invite the Russian students next year could be
adopted.
There still appears to be some confusion about the
nature of the proposed visit itself. So we will conclude with
a few facts about these aspects.
1. The Russian students, with the permission of
their natIon.il student union, liave already accepted
the invita^on.
2. The proiiosed visit, not exchange, would last
abDUt tour weeks.
3. About 15 Soviet students wo;|ld be included in
the visit, soiue cultural representatives, some stu-
** dent leaders.
4. Neither NFCUS nor universities separately are
nodcr any financiul obligation. The Russians would
pay their own way by giving cultural performances
in music and ballet. Any deficit would be made up
by the Russian student union;
So there they are, not all the facts, not any of the argu-
ments, but the main points which may somehow have been
passed over by many people.
From now on the question is in the lap of the gods,
Vhich, in this case happen to be the students of the Uni-
versity of Toronto who Itave not yet decided.
Editor, The Varsity:
I wish to reply to the author
of the Champus Cat (Nov. 15),
with regard to his satire concerfi-
ing the triservice parade on the
campus and the purpose of the
three armed services represented
By those students parading on
Nov. 10.
To begin with, I would uphold
his rig-ht to publicly hold his
opinion though he has given it in
blissful ignorance or with delib-
erate pui'pose. His inaccurate re-
port on the rates of pay is re.a-
tively unimportant in view of the
deeper ignorance his article bold-
ly proclaims. *
I defy him to find one of the
students enlisted in the three ser-
vices who is there to uphold any ,
aggressive "balance of power,"
I beg to suggest that those en-
hsted in the University Armed
Services' schemes are in those
services because the very privi-
leges which we all enjoy on this
campus, and in our liome com-
munities are dependent upon the
survival of what we loosely sum
up as "The Canadian Way of
Life" — of academic and political
freedom, and all that such a Way
, means to Canadians.
We are aware that forces
I within this world to-day would
gladly subvert or stamp out that
way of life.
Some of the students in these
Services are veterans who learn-
ed first-hand the real hell of war.
Neither they nor the other Stu-
dents who are "part-time soldiers,
sailors or airmen" want such hell
on earth again. Ti-aining exercises
with live ammunition, rockets, and
flame-throwers are ghastly and
as close as we want to get to
such hell as war obviously is.
Why then do we study prin-
ciples and tactics of war? Be-
cause we now that you cannot
begin to lecture to the barbarian
at yom- country's gates in
"philosophic considerations" (suoh
as the Champus Cat so nobly
upheld).
Editor. The Varsity;
I have in the past received certain shocks resulting from i
articles in The Varsity. However, I must admit that none were of'
great as the one I received on reading yestei-day's "Champug '
whose good name thereby suffers in my opinion. In my three y^.^
this institution, till now, I have apparently been suffering unde^
misapprehension that the "Champus Cat" was designed to hi'
amusing little article containing bits of social and campus satir(
articles of mUd amu.sement. Apparently it has now become a curiau,
anonymity behmd which certain "philosophical intellectuals" can
and hurl their barbs of derision at a much larger element of stn
than themselves who have given themselves up whether rigi^J
wrongly to training' themselves for the defence of our country ii^ „
that war. which none of us iS fool enough to wish for, does
threaten us.
That wars are a foolish and ridiculous attempt to solve
problems goes without saying amongst people with common sense <
who do participate in practical training in the ways whereby theu
help protect their country and their ideals and way of life are nif,
showing a little- practical reahsm in their approach to the probi.
No one wants war but we must be ready should it come upon [

If the author of this article (who so discreetly withholds his ng.

The allusion to the paid hirelings for killing to which the am
seems to reduce all the armed sei'vices betrays a lack of knowledgi
the essential facts and of their aims, in fact it betrays a lack of ahj
to see beyond the end of his nose.
I believe stcongly that such articles should not come under
"Champus Cat" column and that they should be signed by the
name of the author. Along with it ,more practical suggestions sli.
be made whereby "philosophical considerations" can solve world pi,
lems rather than indulging in a tiradp of ridicule at what our comi!
at present, considers the answer to the problem.

dead. It just doesn't pay.
Let me explain . . . and to do
that I'd better go back to the be-
ginning . . . when 1 was a student
just like you.
When I was having a good
time, not working too hard, and
attending the odd lecture (and
some of them were odd) I got in-
volved with the Radio Commit-
tee. As a matter of fact, I was a
member of the first radio com-
mittee that Jhere ever was on the
campus.
I found that producing a radio
progi-am was not an easy job.
Luckily at that time, working on
the committee, was a gentleman
named Ross McLean, who was
working for CKEY, while attend-
ing college. Because of his sta-
tion affiliation, we were able to
produce some pretty good shows.
Most of us realized that we would
never have been able to do any-
thing much without an "inside
man" . . .
Anyway, when I got involved

in radio, I thought it would be
an excellent idea to give you
students a helping hand. I per-
suaded my boss that we might
do well to carry a university pro-
gram on our station. Since stu-
dents and professors spend a
good deal of time discussing
things, we thought it would be a
fine idea to have a discussion-
group on the air, a round-table
discussion.
I decided to give my time free
to produce and moderate these
shows. I realized, unhappily, that
I am neither the best producer
nor the l>est moderator in this
world, but I knew thaf there
would be no such show unless, I
personally did a major part ^ of .
the work.
I gave up an evening a week
and two or three afternoons to
arrange these programs. I did it
because I thought what I was
doing would be appreciated . . .
so I thought. In fact when I was
finished, I thought perhaps the
SAC would send me a small pres-
ent, maybe a stop-watch to pro-
duce its shows, or even a letter of
thanks.
Instead, L picked up The Varsity
one day, to read all sorts of nas-
ty things about myself. Not being
the nasty type, to say the least,
I was shocked.
Then someone said I was hav-
ing a feud with Rocky Martino.
Not being the feuding type, I v
shocked again.

Rosaire Beaule, the 21-year-old
McGill law student who was elect-
> 1 president of Pax Romana at
Rheims, France, last summer, told
I ] Le delegates to the Canadian
Federation of Catholic College
students (CFCCS) conference at
St. Mike's on Friday that it was
the duty of Catholics and of all
Christians to unite in a world
shaken by forces of evil and defend
their beliefs.
He said that this evil resulted
because of the fact that Christians
and the remainder of the world
have become materialistic.
Beaule addressed the confer-
ence on the role of the. CFCCS in
Pax Romana, the international
movement of Catholic students. The
Federation of Canadian Students
joined Pax Romana at the annual
assembly at Rheims last August
when delegates from over 70 na-
tional organizations elected Beaule
as president to succeed another
Canadian, Dr. Claude Macdonald.
The revival of spiritual values
and the spreading of Catholic
thought is, in Beaule's opinion, a
more practical way to work for
peace than are peace councils. He
stressed these two actions as posi-
tive means to be used in fighting
communism on a practical basis.
However Beaule said that while
the Federation should work in-
ternationally, it should not forget
that Canada is two nations with
different cultural backgrounds and
that there was a need for better
understanding between Catholics of
the two groups. He felt that the
Canadians should conciliate what
they have in their own nation and
that Catholics would not have the
influence in Canada that they
should have as long as contacts
between English and French-
speaking are as few as they are.
M. Bernard Ducret. General
Secretary of Pax Romana also
spoke on the role of the Canadian

A "Bring Christ Back To Christ-
mas" campaign will be sponsored
this year by the Canadian Feder-

The CFCCS meethi^ at St. Mike's
decided to sponsor the campaign
which was started by Mount St.
Vincent College last year, with the
hope that it would be as successful
on other Canadian campii as it was
at this Maritime co-ed college.
The Seventh Annual Conrerenc*
of the federation elected three stu-
dents from the Maritimes for the
top executive positions. The new
president is Margaret Martin from
Mount St. Vincent aod the secre-
tary-treasurer will be Ann Streeter

English Failures
Shacked Faculty
The results of the University
College Pass English examinations
were made known last week. "The
results startled the Depart^ment of
English," said Mr. Woodliouse,
Professor of English at UC. "They
■were much worse than expected."
The pnrpose of the examinations
were, first, to get some indication
of whai degree of knowledge of
English the average undergrad
possesses; and secondly, to enable
the Department to provide help for
those who most obviously need
special instruction.
The University administration
wants to give undergrads the type
of English training they need and
hence this information was neces-
sary, said Professor •Woodhouse.
who as head of the department set
the examination.
Plans were made to have five in-
Biructors groups of approximately
twenty-five students each, for
those who faOed to get above fifty
percent. Because of the poor re-
mits ten groups are indicated,
rhus the plan was altered so that
oly the people who received un-
ler thirty-three percent wjll be in-
auded in the classes. Moreover,
he original number of twenty-five
ler gioup has been increased to
birty-flve. This shows the con-
Bderably lower standard than was
fiticlpated.
Mr. Woodhouse stressed that
there was no liistality or cruelty
ntended In the examinations. It
was an an attempt to help students
who need help."
Just what the long-standmg ef-
fects may be on this revelation of
the Inability of so many students
to cope with English Language
is not known. However, Dr. Bis-
sel. said. "It involves a serious
consideration of the role of Eng-
lish in the University."
Kingston Cadi
Cancels Vote
For Students
Kingslon. (COP) — A Kingston
county court judge has ruled that
no student at Queen's Dmversity
may vote except in the riding where
his parents live. The ruling has
brought protests from students at
Queen's, the majority of whom will
be deprived of a vote in the forth-
coming provincial election.
A Kingston lawyer who voluntar-
ily represented the students in theu-
appeal against the ruling explamed
that students spent about seven
months in Kingston, which virtual-
ly amounts to permanent residence
in the city.
Be added that the ruling render-
ing thousands of students ineligible
to vote was not the purpose of the
Election Act.

A Difference Of Opinion
The Editors of Le Quartier Latin, student newspaper
at the University of Montreal, were fired last week by the
Student Council. One of the reasons given for the dismissal
was a special issue devoted to the Royal Tour containing
both uncomplimentary and satirical material.
In this article, reprinted from the McGill Baily, the
' Canadian University Press Editor, John Cunningham out-
lines some of the material contained in that issue.
The Varsity said, "The University is proud to
play host to the Royal Ck)uple. We wish that it
were possible for them to stay longer -Such a
happy occasion will long be remembered at the
Qniversity." The Queen's Journal said, "She is a
welcome and charming guest . . . Prom Queen's
Re send to her our warmest wish for a pleasant
=tay in Canada. Our only regret with Canadians
acioss the nation — is that she cannot stay
longer." The Sheaf (U. of Sask.) said, "The British
Monarchy represents something more than mere
fcingship; the Crown is a symbol of unity within
ft free commonwealth of nations. As Canadians
we proudly hold membership in that Common-
wealth and warmly receive these Royal personali-
ties."
Le Quartier Latin of the University of Montreal
[n its Royal Visit issue said, "They will bring
back our enthusiasm to England as homage
to the Empire. Our applause wul be Qepo:>ii-ed ta
the vaults of the Bank of England as securities
with large dividends. With this they can hope for
the survival of the Commonwealth; the association
organized not for the common good of its mem-
bers (as its pompous title suggests) for lor the
maintenance of the political power of that little
over-populated island."
If the views expressed in this issue were the
views of the editors, then these editors are ex-
tremely nationalistic. In the whole issue there
was not one story that wasn't liberally sprinkled
with personal opinions. In the last paragraph of
their page one story Le Quartier Latm said, ''rhe
role of the English Princess sent by the English
Government leaves no doubt for anyone, even if
her coming has cost people the equivalent of a
good reduction in educational fees. The National-
ists think of the Royal Visit in 1939 and the Im-
perialists regard it as a re- enforcement of unity
around the British Royal Family and they are
both right. England realizes finally that she is
losing her supremacy and she is trying by all
means to get out of the crisis evoked in the little
island."
Le Quartier Latin continued, "That's why
people say it is all proaganda but nobody listens.
There is no danger in propaganda when you know
the motives of those who make it. That is why
we permit ourselves to like the Kn^lish Prlnr^^
by politeness towards a foreign, but friendly power,^
The Quartier Latin In every ons of its i.^i.^j
struck a note comparable to Le Devoir's attitutjg
toward the Royal Visit; that of welcoming tt,^
couple but at the same time reminding everyo,!^
that they represent a foreign power.
In a cartoon the French-Canadian is depict^^
as a puppet in a Little Lord Pauntehoy suit, kiss,
ing proffered hand of the Princess and at th^
same time clutching a Fleur-de-Lis behind iii,
back. The Princess is depicted with a grotesqyj
smile on her face and holding the hand of hf[
husband who in turn is hiding a Union J&ck be,
hind his back. This cartoon was used is illustrate
an arOcle titled, "Good-bye to Mythology."
The paper's editorial said, "We respect Instino,
tively these last representatives of an old mon,
archy. Of course there axe" also about ten miliif^
dollars being spent by the government (on tin
Royal Tour) but it isn't decent to speak aboui
that."
*Tt is important that we be not dupes, w,
aren't naive and we can't be bought with hcni;
and radio and newspaper propaganda. Our peop
are beginning to think that Canada has attain^
maturity and that tutorships are always costlj
We believe before all in the independenc? i,
Canada and when politeness requires, it is with
imbelieving smile that we bow before the Crowii
Le Quartier Latin in reference to Le Carabio,
student newspaper of . Laval University said, "u
Carabin declared that we should welcome [he
Princess with proper respect to her authority,"!
"After all!" the Quartier Latin says. "Up to whal
point should one "ignore the history of one's coun-
try. The Commonwealth, after a long evolution,
has become a free association of independent coun.
tries. It is more a question of receiving her as a
representative of past splendour, just as we would
receive any other well-born person."
In story after story the writers freely expressed
their own personal opinions of the Royal Family
and the Commonwealth which were all in a nation*
alistic vain. They quoted the circumstances sur*
' rounding previous Royal Visits to Canada and find
in the present one similarity to the Royal Visit ot
1939.

Montreal (CUP) — The McGill
University library, which turned
over its profits to the Students' So-
ciety will now finance a lending
library of lighter books from those
same profits.
The library will be made up en-
tirely up of new and recent books
that may be borrowed for leisure
reading. With the $650 profit Uiat
will be used to begin the scheme,
the bookstore will be able to buy
about 2,000 books to stait, the Mc-
Gill Daily announced, reporting on
the move.
A special room in ttie new lib-
rary buil^g will be set aside for ,
this lending library. The books
will be put on open shelves from
which the students may select
what they wish to borrow.
Since the bookstore's profits are
expected to increase this year,
ready money will be available to
form the starting collection and to
; increase it.

f At il'C session on Thursday it
Las decided that after approving
Eje principle of the visit, they
KoiiUl decide what organization
ihoiJ'd Ije in charge of the visit and

KpCUS was chosen as the organ-

FCUS should leave the Interna-

' Service and imlit its activi-
|ies to sending delegates to inter-
latic al conferences where they
(Boirt represent Canada.
A :'iotion. proposed by Peter Al-

Eive preferences for the type of

■was desirable. The motion stated
Itiiat any action should be re-
ciprocal, an exchange of study
was preferable to tours but
Jthat a one way tour was preEer-
(ablo to no action at all. The fifth
win! was that NFCUS should press
por ft tour this year, if possible
y- other following year.
cliarges arose out of an alleged ex-
plosion under the School of Law
float on Homecoming Week-end.
New international complications
are indicated by the discovery that
recent graduates of the Lenin
School of Molotov Cocktail-Mixing
of Stalmgrad may attempt to en-
ter this country. It is not known
how these genta will seek entrance
to Canada but intelligence source^
anticipate that then- mission will
be cultural liquidation.
When questioned about possible
implication. N. Geneer said. "It is
not true that I did not deny that I
did not ai.tend the Lenin School of
Molotov Cocktail Mixing." Agents
of the Submerive Squad have been
re-investigating the recent bed oul>
break of undercover activities oi^
the campus.
, The Varsity has been advised by
the Engineering Society that it
has retained the services of the
top-flight firm of Giraudy. Blen-
karn. Ti'ivett. BiUen. Coo and As-
sociates to conduct E. Geneer 's
defence.
Summing up the defence in
comprehensive statement defence
council sta.ted that they had con-
sidered it almost inevitable on the
evidence which might be produced
that a case could be made out
which would possibly have the ef-
fect of proving the inaccuracy of
certain allegations wliich might be
construed as implicating their
cl.ent providing an honest jury
could be impanelled and a sober
judgment obtained. However" the
former is in some doubt.
Meanwhile from the Campus
Courting House steadfastly refus-
ed to divulge the name or where-
abouts of tiie presiding judge on
the theory that he might be inti-
mated before his time had come to
try the case.
A motion to exclude the public
from the trial on the trrounds of

dice was refused today oy His Hon-
our E. Lectrode of the Circuit

Music Review
Soap Opera Pops
Last Friday night, Andre Kostelanetz, vaunted American conductor,
led the TSO in the regular Pop Concert before a packed house. The
source of Mr. Kosteianetz' success has always been a puzzle to me. It
this concert is to be used as any criterion, it certainly is not his musical
abilities. Jlather, his fame seems to rest on the ignorance and bad taste
of the public. The case in point was his performance of the Eine Kleine
Nachtmusik. Mozart's faultless serenade. Never have I heard a more
uninteresting, perfunctory, and insensitive intei-pretation of this
delightful work. Throughout, but especially in the second and fourth
movements, the dynamics were harshly exaggerated, the sforzandos
sounding like pistol shots, the pianos barely audible. The second
movement gushed with nauseating sentiment; it is marked "Romanza'
but it does not mean the modem American soap opera conception of
romance. The Minuet, the third movement received a brutal treatment,
with the violins sawing, the ceUos hacking. It was a trying experience.
The other major work on the program was the Rhapsody in Blue,
Gershwin's uneven and rather incoherent work. Kosteianetz gave it the
lull smalt^y treatment, with Leo Barlcin, as pianist, accompanying the
baton. Barkin, who played with a score, gave an indifferent, unimagina-
tive performance; he read his music and that was all there was to it.
It seemed to be someone practising rather than performing. In some
of the cadenza passages, Mr. Barkin's rhythm was bad.
Kosteianetz exhumed Gershwin's Cuban Overture, a work which has
fallen into obscurity ajid which received its radio premiere last Friday
night. It is a dull and pretentious work and should be reburied. The
rest of the concert consisted of some Bizet inconsequentialities,
Romberg .ind Victor Herbert banalities, and a moribund Strauss waltz.
Tales of the Vienna Woods, that was given the last twist of the knife.
When is the Pop oiThestra going to stop playing the worthless Romberg-
Herbert trash and hackneyed Strauss waltzes? Let us have an end to
this pandering to bad taste, this facile condescension that attempts to
cajole people mto listening to serious music.
The whole concert was marked by listless, mechanical playing and
general indifference. The only thing passable was the performance of
Berlioz' Roman Camival Overture. Some may think, perhaps, that I
have been hypercritical, and say: "After all. it Is only a Pop concert."
This approach to music is naive. Music should always be treated
seriously and sensitively, no matter what the standard of the audience
is. Poor performances kill the art of music.
William Kotcheff.

DETECTIVE STORY (at Shea's and Eglinton)
almost did not carry over into a second week's
run. The drums for the succeeding feature, a
teclinicolor musical, have been rolling for a week
now, more or less breathing down DETECTIVE
STORY'S uneasy neck.
This has happened to other worthwhile pic-
tui-es too. THE WINSLOW BOY got a fast axe
at the very same Shea's Theatre. INTRUDER
IN THE DUST is a cause c^-lebre now. And
TERESA was the latest example. All above-
average films that went so fast we hardly
noticed they had come.
'ITicre is something wrong here. It is the
response of the audience through the box office,
of course. But breaking this down, there are
several possible reasons; Inadequate or mis-
leading publicity, the wrong kind of audience
(i.e., wrong theatre since locaWy we have a
vague cultural hierarchy among the movie
houses), an unpalatable theme or luipopular
treatment of a theme (again a qualitative prob-
ing of the audience).
This impressive William Wyier adaptation of
the Sidney Kingsley play is a fine film. It
deserves a high place in the Hollywood Renais-
sance, the current crop of pictures which as-
sume that there are enough moviegoers who
want intelligent and adult themes arlH attitudes
in their movies.
Like the film adaptation of A STREETCAR
NAMED DESIRE, the concessions of DETEC-
TIVE STORY to Hollywood tastes and morality
are few. But even than &R.EETCAR, the even-
ing DETECTIVE SORY audience I was in show-
ed much restlessness and candj'- wrapper crack-
ling even in the tensest scenes. And when the
principals were showing stress and emotion, the
audience obviously felt embarrassed. DETEC-
TIVE STORY seems guaranteed to lose money.
The funny thing is that the heavy scenes
in the film are mostly well-acted, not maudlinly
postured and sobbed. But the audience at Shea's
didn't like, although the closeness of the pofv-
com concession to the body of the threatre may
be one aggravating factor. (There was stir and
fuss during the SEVEN DAYS TO NOON also,
although not to the same degree.)
DETECTIVE STORY is an above-average pro-
duct because director William Wyler and his
very capable cast tackle the play as if they were
co;ivinced it were Shakespeare. I personally feel
the play is too neatly -contrived, and the ending
obvious and long-drawn. But just the same, this
drama of a day in a New York detective's life
and the examination of his pathological hatred
and treatment of criminal suspects Is an absorb-
ing one. And Wyler develops mood and subtle
insight with his concentration on pace and sen-
sitive performance, especially from the bit per-
formers.
As the tormented sadjst dick, Kirk Douglas is
convincing. His contribution is the usual Douglas
version of a man struggling with an internal
storm of emotions, but he toes the line between
sincerity and hamminess quite well. Eleanor
Parker is quite satisfactory as his wife. William
Bendix plays the nice tough Irishman his u.si
competent way, '
The soundness of the film comes from
contribution of the character actors. Most
the detectives are familiar Hollywood faces
their expression of dull routineness is effectiv
But the audience forgets its restlessness ^
two Broadway actors do their bits, Joseph Wu^"
man is a foui--time loser, and Lee Grant
shoplifter who apolc^izes for putting her
ticular officer to all his troubles. Horace '
Mahon is interesting as the detective lieutena'n'
The biggest reason for the reluctance of
but
audience to accept DETECTIVE STORY
be the leisurely pace that director Wyler
established for the play. Action erupts often,
■when the principals get all involved in theil
problems, the screen patiently waits with the^
through their mental tortures. This may expia,^
Horace McMahon's moments of weakness in
oherwise impressive portrait, weakness which
may be due to the, director's insistence on heaw
atrhposhere. And American audiences are con
ditioned to fast-moving films in this age m
mechanical progress.
But there may be a simpler reason for baj
audiences. V/hen it is recalled how much tilW
affect audiences (TICKET TO TOMAHA\Vk
and ACE IN THE HOLE were changed b;
money- wise exhibitors), perhaps DETECTrvg
STORY suggested some slam-bang cops-and-
robber epic of the Alan Ladd type. It so, thf
leisurely mood of the film, so essential to the
play's theme, would naturally make people fij.

Last Tuesday night was spent at one of the
lectures on Film and Society in the University
Extension series. This series is directed by
Albert A. Shea, former member of staffs ol
both this university and University of Manj.
toba. He is a mass communications expert, and
was on the staff of the ISS seminar at Btvda.
The particular lecture was on"I>ocumentaiy"
and given by National Film Board producer Syi-
ney Newman. Newman is responsible for the
commercial NFB works such as Canada Carries
On, and he illustrated his lecture with some ol
his works, including the recent PENITEN-
TIARY, and excerpts from a sensitive British
documentary by Humphrey Jennings, FIR£S
WERE STARTED.
This is midway in the PUm lectures, and those
to come include (3erald Pratley on the Develop-
ment of FUm Narrative, a panel of Toronto
critics on The Film and Public Taste, Lou Ap-
plebaum on Music For the Movies, and a visit
to the Queensway Studios of Capitol Film Pro-

fatnpM' Show
§kiile Nite '52
By JACK GRAY
Thinking back over it I find it isn't as difficult to say some nice
,hines about Shule Nite '52 as I was afraid it might be. Because among
hP thiiigs that the Engineers dreamed up for their annual musical revue
iVvear there are a couple of higlilights, one that I had more or less
npcted, one that I had only hoped for in the smaJl, daik parts of my
that I ordinarily don't discuss.
The ^^^^ Powrie produced some better-than-
vevaee sets for Skule Nite last year, as well as sets for some other
^mpi^ productions.^ Tliis year he didn't quite manage to reach the
Heights
Page Five
he attained last season, but the sets were still much better than
^ver'a^- ^h's I think was true of all the sets, which managed to combine
■ talents as a designer with the mechanical needs of the show.
' The other highlight was part of the Conception number, and for the
first time this year managed to get across some of the magic that I have
vJen looking for in campus shows. To say that it was professional, or
*hat we could drag out the superlatives would be something less than
ritellectual integrity will allow, but it managed to be pleasing, charming
d entertaining, a feat that few numbers have managed in campus
^offs so far this year
The Filles de Paris and Miss Helen Splcer came in about the middle
f the Conception number. Miss Spicer has a pleasant voice which I am
+ tally incompetent to say anything intelligent about. I liked her song
nd ber manner. The Filles de Paris, Joan Elliot, Audrey Koehler, Carol
McKinlay- Leila Niemi, Jane Phillips, Novene Pye, Marjorie Sewell and
^ice Strand, did a dance which was essentially simple, and suited to
Iheir amateur talents. No ballet here, just uncomplicated precision
Toutines which they managed to keep up to. The costumes were wonderful,
the planning well and intelligently done. No other part of Skule Nite '52
came across to the audience so well. 2
Most of the rest of Skole Nite was a lost cause. Education produced
two good songs. But the skit suffered from over-writing. Prof. Log Log,
playful take-off on a well-known Skule professor, got an enthusiastic
reception which was slowly and surely killed by the length of time he was
kept in front of the spotlights. Tlie songs were the only thing that saved
the number. The lyrics (Bill TOler and Mike Harrison for the Opening
Song and Hyde. Hayman, Selby and Harrison for the SUdc-Rule Song)
were imaginative and full of fun. They were well delivered by the male
chorus,
Conception started out well, but began to come apart at the seams
too early and with the exception of the production number noted above
didn't get anywhere. Why? It had no plot (that I noticed), it wandered,
skirted the sex-women-sex scene we have seen too much of, and
-ws?.tually led to a machine. By that time it had died a quiet death.
From here on the show just' quietly went to pieces: it dragged (one
and a half hours), and in the final act really stopped once or twice. (I
j saw the second show on Friday night.)
I liked: Des Buolt's Calypso song in Conception although I was a bit
surprised to see a Calypso singer in Paris (listed as a "Gypsy Vendor");
Prank Yamada's magic, because I always want to be fooled by magicians
and can't hold it against them even when I'm not; Brown, Cameron and
I Hayman doing a relaxed Come and Nestle.
I And although Skule has made a tradition of machines, Friday J^ght's
I traffic jam, which saw three machines cluttering up the stage and
I stopping the show and not being that amusing will, I hope, lead next
I year's Skule Nite producer to junk the idea.

Vancouver (CUP) — The Ubyssey,
undergrad paper at the University
of British Columbia, has aroused
the wrath of the university's Board
of Governors following an editor-
ial described as irrespor»-ible
wriiing by the board, asking for a
breakdown of the budget. The p^
per has been aclively campaigning
to find out tlie reasons for the in-
crease in fees imposed at the be-
ginning of the present session.
Such a breakdown was promised
by the university's president, Dr.
MacKenzie.
The Board of Governors has ask-
ed UBC's student council to take
some action in this matter.
Commented the Ubyssey editor-
ially: that it was never the inten-
tion of the paper to cast any re-
flections on the Itnowledge and
judgments of the Board. The only
purpose was to obtain fulfillment
of a promise we felt that had not
been adequately fulfilled as yet.
"The Board of Governors is to
be commended for this move."
continued tlie editorial. "They
have not demanded the removal of
studentiS responsible, but have re-
quested the students to solve their
own problems."
The editorial also admitted its
injudicious use of language in
writing the editorial asking for the
breakdown.

ONDS MAKE HISTORY
By MAL CRAVfFOBD
It has been a long time since a figure has entered the
Canadian sports scene amid as much fanfare and departed
amid as much abuse as, George Ratterma,,, e'J-Notr« D«m^^
star who played this past season with the Montieal Alou-
ettes. „ , ,
Katterman left the New York Yankees for whom he
had played one season, and signed with the A ouettes for a
Reported $17,000 plus a $5,000 a year 30b m a broker s
or ice Towards the end of the season, m which the Als
sank quickly to the bottom of the standings, the high-priced
quai toback announced that he was returning to the Yankees
at the end of the season.
It was a very business-like move to say the least, bince
the National Football League's schedule does not begin
until the Canadian season is more than half over, Ratterman
was able to earn a full season's salary with the Alouettes
plus an additional half-season's pay with the Yanks.
Ranked fourth among the NFL passers last year, while
completing 140 passes in 194 tries for a total gam of 2^51
yards, an average of 16.01 yards per attempt (which is the
criterion thev grade the passers by down there), Gorgeous
George was expected to take the opposition apart on ever.v
outing When the Alouettes won four games and lost eight
to wind up in the cellar only two years after Frank Filchok
had quarterbacked them to the Grey Cup, Ratterman was
looed upon as the let-down of the year.
About the best thaf^as generally said of him was that
he wasn't able to adjust himself to the Canadian game. The
worst (the worst that is printable, that is) was that he was
directly responsible for the Als flopping. Canadian papers
quoted him as saying he couldn't adjust himself to our
game, but when he got down to New York he said he was
misquoted and the only reason he left was that he missed
the .ttood old USA.
The reason the Alouettes failed this year was not that
Ratterman couldn't adjust himself to Canadian football, but
that Ratterman couldn't adjust himself to a poor team. The
Montreal backfield was the best in the nation; on the line it
was a different story. From tackle to tackle, they had two
good two-wav linemen, Ray Cicia and Herb Trawick, plus
another in Ciary McGeaVy who arrived late in the season,
and a couple of good defensive linemen in Chambers and
Keys. Behind this they had one or two Canadian defensive
linemen, but no offensive support strength. Ratterman was
no the only instance this year of the effect on good passers
of frequent smearings by 250 pound linemen; look at the
Dekdebrun case.
Even when his linemen were protecting him, he had no
exceptional receivers, though Yonakor showed well at times.
Many times in the games here he would throw the ball as
the receiver was breaking only to find that the. receiver
hadn't shaken off the defender covering him. As it was,
Ratterman completed 41.6 percent of his heaves. If you
could count complete the passes crropped by Toohey, Manas-
tersky, etc., it probably would have been 61.6.
Although other things, like his faking, did not seem to
be up to what they must have been in the States, we fail
to see how any quarterback could have kept the Als out
of the cellar this year.

Both Varsity touchdowns came
from passes by Fitzhenry. Another

Queen's five yard line but the Blues
were unable to take it over.
Queen's looted as good, if not
better than the Blues along the
ground. Bill SurphUs, Al Kocman
and Dick James were all going
great guns on off-tackle slants and
around the end on pitchouts. These
three men were also" tackling
viciously from their secondary posi-
tions on defence.
Queen's quarterback Al Poutanen
was a quadruple threat man. He
was a capable field general as the
Blues learned only too well from
the Comets' ground attack. He
carried the ball himself several
times with great success. Although
he didn't have too much success
in the air for the first three-
quarters of the game, he spear-
headed a pass attack in the last
quarter that almost upset the
Blues' applecart. He was also one
of the leading men in the tackling
department.
But the Blues had the better

Sports
With a lapse in Intercollegiate
sport at hand, there is an urgent
need for spsrts reporters interest-
ed in covering hockey, lacrosse,
wrestling, bc-ing, etc., on the In-
tramural level.

Intramural hockey in particu-
lar demands an increased report-
ing staff, and the help of all those
I interested will be appreciated.
A few minutes later there was a
bad snap to Burley on the third
down and he was nailed on the
centre stripe. Kocman and Mc-
Kelvey went for 21 and 7 yards re-
spectively. After an incomplete pass,
Burley was rouged on Surphlis'
kick but it was called back be-
cause Queen's was holding.
Varsity took over on their own
16 but were forced to kick. Surphlis
then made a very heady play. He
received Burley's punt on the
Varsity 35 and returned the kick
over the dead ball line to tie the
game at one-all.
Half way through the third quar-
ter Dick James started the Comets
on the way to their only major
with a forty yard nm irom his own
ten. Queen's were forced to kick
after two more plays. Ford re-
ceived the punt and tried to make
a lateral as he was being tackled.
The ball fell to the ground and
Joe Labuda fell on it at the Varsity
33. The Comets marched to the
Toronto one yard line on a series
of plays and captain Bert Elford
took it over oh an off-tackle smash.
Beaton's convert attempt failed.
It was kind of agonizing to
watch Queen's pound away for
that major and then see Varsity
get it back with ridiculous ease.
Late in the third quarter the
Blues had first down on their own

Crumpaters Win Over Double Blues 16-6
Cop Playoff Spot With Undefeated Year
By FRANCIS QUINLAN
Trinity Conege. one of last year's Mulock Cup finalists, made its way into the play-offs last Friday by downing
St. Mike's 16-6. The win gave the Red and Black an undefeated season with four wins and a tie for a total of nine
points; St. Mike's was second in the Group, and Forestry third,
It was a much closer game than
the score would indicate, as Trinity
was clinging to a 10-G margin un-
til the last few seconds when a
fumblad kick gave them another
major. The lead changed hands
three times during the contest
which up to the final minui« lool^ed
like it could have gone either way,
Trinity relied mainly on its ter-
rific passing combination of passer
Doug Andison and receivers Cor-
coran and JarvLs and the running
of Thomas and Steedman. St.
Mike's used a new double wing for-
mation that looked pitiful hi the
first half and unstoppable In the
second.
Trinity came very close to a ma-
jor in the fust quarter when they
marched from their own 35 to the
SMC 8 only to lose the ball on a
fuml>le. Steeu...an started off the
drive with a plunge to his own 50,
and an Andlson-to-Jarvis pass was
good on the St. Mike's 43. Two
plays later Thomas took a pass on
the eight to put Ihe Red and Black
in scoring position, but Decker re-
covered a bobble on the 18 to end
the threat.
The Buttery Boys were not to be
denied and came back in the second
quarter to go out in front 5-0. After
taking possession of the ball on the
centre stripe, the Trinity boys drove
for a first down on the 43. Cor-
coran made a finger-type catch on
Ihe 30, and on the next play Andi-
son pass^ again, this time to Mere-
dith, and it was good for a touch-
down. The convert try was not
good.
St. Mike's finally began to look
like a team in the second half as
Johnny Miller. Dave Whiters. and
Bob Singleton swept for long gains i
behind some superlative blocking.
Miller set 'th^ ball rolling as he
raced 25 yards to the Trinity 48,
and followed it up with a drive to
the 40. Sing'.cton carried twice to
the n, and Winters twisted and
turned to the one. After a line
plunge was piled up for no gain.
Winters went over for a major.
Heughen's convert put tlie Double
Blue out in front 6-5.
The foutw.i quarter saw Trinity
take the lead again as Pete Jarvis
took Andiscn's toss Into the end
zone to ci.m_ x a march of almost
100 yard;, jliree St. M.ae's penal-
ties and a yard pass completion
were the im,iortant factors in the
drive. Tlu convert attempt wasn't
good and tl.: score remained 10-6 in
Trinity's f: vour.
8t. Mike's ground attack couldn't
seem to get back into stride after
that as they never got past the
Red and Black 40-yard line. With
less than a minute left Trinity
kicked over the Double Blue line,
and the safety man fumbled. Jar-
vis dove on tiie ball for the final
touchdown. Andison converted to
make tne score 16-6 as the whistle
blew.
Jarvis and-Aniison were Trinity's
best while Winters and Miller stood
out for the Mikemen. Trinity has
a fast, alert team with a fair line
and a good backfield as during the
season they piled up 53 points to
19 for their opijonent^. Whether
they take the Cup or not, they
can be depended upon to put up a
good fight. Their opponent Is not

\ From *his definition, we see that a human being po&sesses the

Imaii ^ °" same level as a clock or a popcorn maker. By their
Itechiiiques they have discovered a certain something— a soul,
loersonality, consciousness, or mind — that lurks somewhere in the dark
ISknoivn of the brain.
I Biologists sneer at the idea. The soul has never blunted a needle or
I caused a pointer to twitch. If you can't see, weigh, or measure a thing,
■ then ignore it. Some biologists, however, have whispered that they may
Ijjave run across this X factor occasionally in their investigations.
I Among the most unexpected people it has become popular to assume
I the existence of the mind. Thus, even in the most conservative medical
I journals articles are printed on how the mind can affect blood
1 pressure, stomach ulcers, asthma, depression, and other ailments. In the
I past, this understanding of the mind's influence on health was termed
"horse sense." Today it is known as psychosomatic medicine, which
I implies that some interaction between mind and body exists.
L^.«^ow could such an entity as mind develop from a machine? Some
yhave said that mind or consciousness is an. extraneous by-product of
I the workings of the body. George Santayana described it as "a lyric
cry in the midst of business." If we assume the existence and influence
of the mind, we must accept the fact that some ghostly ethereal thing
is moving good solid bone and muscle.
I If the concept of mind is here to stay, we should seek its dwelling
place. Shakespeare asks,
"Tell me where Is fancy bred:
Or in the heart or in the head?
I How begat, how nourished?"
Descartes thought it lived in the pineal gland at the base of the brain.
This theory has been rejected, but it still is impossible to point to any
I anatomical site in the brain and say that consciousness resides there.
1 Consciousness nevertheless can be altered by cutting fibres that run
to the frontal lobes of the brain. Psychiatrists use this technique in the
I treatment of certain mental disorders.
Scientific knowledge concerning the mind has been very slight,
j Some scientists believe that living organisms have some spiritual
j essence in them that reaches its height of development in the human
mind. Others, however, believe that through further investigation of
life processes they will be able to exi^ain consciousness in terms of
chemistry and pnysics.

We believe in Santa Claus. But we doubt that we are
representing student opinion in doing so. We believe in the
Santa Claus parade. But we doubt whether many under-
graduates even cared to see it.
Yet this year the parade route seemed to make a special
attempt to reach the student body. It passed along Hoskin
Ave. We suspect that anyone trying to cross the street
would only feel that the traffic menace had taken on fan--
tasiic proportions, that after many harassing experiences
they now suffered from hallucinations.
Ayide from these traffic weavers, few undergraduates
would have an excuse to go to the parade. There may have
been some who attended, notebooks in hand, to study the
Bociological implications of the Eatonian ritual. But we doubt
that they had much fun.
We regret that Santa Claus has been relegated to chil-
dren (and, vicariously, their parents). Between these two
groups there is only a limbo of unbelievers.
Young people take a great deal of pride in rejecting the
idea of Santa Claus. It is almost a sign of growing up, and
Bince most children are in a terrific hurry to become adults,
they are apt to throw all sorts of beliefs out the window
without question.
And along with Santa Claus. go all the elves, gnomes,
fairies and goblins which made childhood an exciting effair.
We are told that there is no such person as Santa
Claus, but rather we must think of the Christmas spirit.
And instead of thinking of God as an old man with a great
flowing beard and gnarled hands, we are told that He is an
Infinite Force. Now "spirit" and "Force" are awfully hard
things to visualize, but this seems to be considered a tribute Editor, The VarsUy:
to the adult niind. We object. is it true that the President has
mi ■ J • i • i. ,1- ,11 . . ., Stopped beating his wife?
This desn-e to reject everything that empirically we George M., ii Pass,
cannot know is a very dangerous tendency of tlie modern Ed. Note. Be more specific. George.
When Hans Richter produced his unique
Dreams That Money Can Buy In fUm, he cast a
shadow of light on the three arch makers of
dreams in print — Reader's Digest, Life, and Time.
Liice Paramount News, these three play the role at
"the eyes and ears of the world", but add one
more, the mind. And perhaps the heart. They play "
to the "thousands who influence the millions", the
crowd that is not the crowd, the exclusive ma-
jority.
Published in Pleasantville. N.Y., the Reader's
Digest ironically paints only a pleasant world, a
sky without clouds where nothing succeeds like
sucess. In the pattern prescribed in the Digest
we are dared to be Daniels in the lion's den and
baited beyond the impossible. Ixjok at the Digest
covers. "Science Rebuilds a Farm -in One I>ay",
"She Opened the Eyes of Texas", "Do it Them-
selves? Impossible!", "Take a Cow To College and
Make It Pay." By means of subtle contraction
and tailored-to-fit. features, the Digest designs its
contents to design the reader. Where the pa^es
were made to the reader's order, now the reader
is made to order. And it's just because "Life's Like
That." Life in the digestive tube is just a bowl
of cherries, but the editors have removed the
stones and after a retouching here and there, the
cherries are preserved in print. In The Mechanical
Bride, Dr. H. M. McLuhan states the formula:
"Since there's a hc-ap of goodness, beauty, and
power in everybody and everything, let's extract it
and then box it. bottle it or can it, and hurry to
market. The smart little pig went to market,
the dumb little pig stayed home. But if some acci-
dent should keep the smart little pig at home,
then bet your boots that little old home is going to
bloom out into a $100,000 business, at least, and
provide a lesson of comfort and solace to the
entire community." The Digest reader steps sub-
consciously into a strait-jacket, and the doUarized
success formula "destroys human autonomy, freezes
perception, and -sterilizes judgment."
Caught in the tension of a dog-eat-dog econ-
omy, where his pulse beats with the stock ex-
change, and his eye dulls with the spectrum of
propaganda, the man in the street cries for a
medicine to cure his ills. Like Blanche in A Street-
car learned Dpsirc, he sighs: "I don't want reality.
I want magic." And Reader's Digest waves the
aesthetic war.d.
Typical of those "different" millions who keep
step with the smart set in swallowing Time and
Life Is the crack: "The only thing he knows about
hfe is that It comes every week." Until its com-
ing the reader lives in a suspended pictm-e world
of crime exposure, body exposure, and double ex-
posure of his own conscious and sub-conscious soul
to dose upon dose of popular science mixed with
a hberal spoonful of religious art. Is Life objec-
tive? In a recent ad in Time the caption reads.
"Life . . . graphically reports the world's events '
and vividly pictmes the democratic way of life.
It has become an ambassador of goodwill through'
out the free world — and an advertising showcasi
for products made by free men." Note the franfc
admissions contained in the words "viviaiyp
"democratic", "ambassador", and "free." Life ha*

life, with lighting by the Republicans on the sidg^

resistance with a "be in the know" chuckle, the^

vious or explicit. It is concealed and implicit 15
the lines. Its philosophy, jts doctrines and opinionj
are submerged. As Dr. McLuhan states: "Like th^
clever ads. they do not argue with their reader.
They wallop the subconscious instead." The Tim^
editor keeps the light and shade of the news eveni
just out of focus as he sets his stage of words to
achieve the planned effect.
Time re-creates unity out of diversity. In
page on People, Time turns the kaleidoscope
alternate comedy and tragedy on celebrities, ano
a parade of "inside stories" stimulates the curious
stimulus-seeking mind in the Time technique
if by one man for one man." By means of thi
sharp simile and homely metaphor juxtapose]
with fact. Time masterminds the reader with
stereotype suggestion, and we behold the glistening
artifice of the decorated Christmas tree, the reai'iij-
of its branches fused in a unity of coloured lights

single phrase. The "lift" is into its concocteil
stream of current history, which in fact is con-
current, and youi- interest is kindled with a sly
dig in the ribs. The "let-down" is when your rea.
son submits to the dig, and a tickle of anaesthesia
is nudged in.
On just how aware you are of Time's

gives vent to a traumatic laugh, and you are
caught up in the "Ballet Luce." Time marches on.

A motion in favor oT inviting
Russian students to visit Canada
'as passed 27 to 5 by the Social

President Irving Mann told stu-
lents that the purpose of this
neeting was to discuss whether
ussian students should be invited
iour Canadian universities
•ariicuiarly U. of T.), or attend
i^m on exchange. Another ques-
on was whether NFCUS should be
sked to invite the Russian stu-
6its either this year or next, if
was decided that they should
invited.
The main arguments in favor of
invitation were tliat university
'"cients as potential leaders in
anadian communities should
steti to what Russian students
'islit have to say and to find out
!^cUy what is the situation be-
("a the iron curtain. There is
—■'SO the remote chance that the

if -the press so distorted the details
of tlie visit that even more ill and
unreasoned feeling engendered
among the Canadian people.
Then a discussion was held to
see whether SWoSA was in favor
of asking NFCUS to invite the
Russian students this year or
next. It was decided that be-
cause a visit would involve fuch
preparation, no time limit would
be put on the request but that
NFCUS be asked to begin pre-
parations immediately.

Pieliminary debating trials for
the Brading Trophy Debating team
will take place at Brennan Hall, St.
Michael's College on Nov. 26, from
4-6 pjn. The winners will compete
with a representative tram from
four Scottish unlvereities early in
January.
The prospective Varsity team
monbers will present 15-minute
speecties for or against bhe motion,
' It is resolved that the Iranian gov-
ernment was justified in nationaliz-
ing Iran's oil industiT". Four fac-
ulty judges will choose the two de-
baters of the highest calibre to rep-
resent U. of T. in the Canadian
playdowns.
Similar tryouts will be held at
Queen's, McGill and Western to
ohoose debators to send to the
semi-final debates to be held at
Brennan Hall Dec. 8. Each two-
man team will be accx«npanied by
a faculty judge from its own uni-
versity, but will be judged by the
three faculty meambers of the com-
peting universities.
The teams will speak as a unit
for or against an as-yet-undecided
motion. The highesc aggregate score
will decide the team to compete
with a similarly chosen team from
Scotland. The Scottish debaters,
students at one of Edinburgh. Aber-
deen, St. Andrews or Glasgow Uni-
versities, will tour the four partici-
pating Canadian universities in
Januai'y, 1952, in a series of vm-
official de>>ates similar to the one
above. The debate held at the uni-
versity of the Canadian chgmpions
will officially decide the winners of
the newly donated Brading Trophy.
The trophy, and the $1,500 at-
tached to it for travelling expenses,
have been donated by the Canadian

The second open meeting of the
UC Literary and Athletic Society
will be held tonight at 7:30 p.m. in
the JCR. Among the questions to
be considered at the meeting will
be the question of whether or not
to have a formal Aits Bali. The
dance will be held on January 25
in a Monte Carlo atmosphere and
the Lit Social Director. Victor
Beube. advocates that it be for-
mal.
A new idea for selling tickets for
the UC Ai-ts Ball is also to be dis-
cussed at the meeting— some tick-
ets to be sold for .50c. $1.00, $1.50
and $3.00 depending on how lucky
you are.
After discussing a motion on the
advisabiUty of allowhig Russian
students to study at the University
of Toronto a vote will be taken to
indicate the feelings of the Lit. to-
wards the question.
Also of prime importance on
the agenda will be the question of
how to clean up the JCR. The
Lit will even go to tlie extent of
barring men from the Junior Com-
mon Room or closing it. "This ne
plus in swinish living cannot go
1." said Beube.
The first year president. Martin
Siegal, will introduce a motion in
regard to UC's part in the fresh-
men orientation program. An in-
formal get-together is being plan-
ned for Friday in the Women s Un-
ion for freshmen in aU facuities.
Canadian debating team will go to

A group of McGill students hiter-

McGil/ Apathy
At Low Ebb
Montreal (CUP) — Student
apathy is at a low ebb at McGllI.
Nominations have been received
for only three out of 12 posts on
the Student Executive Council
(corresponding to the Ctudents" Ad-
ministrative Council).
The President of the SEC said,
"This is a great reflection on stu-
dent interest in their own govern-
ment. Students forget that there
must be seme management behind
the privileges they enjoy. There
is a tendency to take student gov- j
ernment for granted."
The Chief Electoral Officer for
Ontario, Major Alex Lewis, said
last night that university students
may vote only in the electoral rid-
ing where their permanent resi-
dence is located. They cannot vote
at a temporary residence, he said.
In spite of tliis ruling, many of
the university residences, including
Knox College and Burwash Hall,
have had their residents included
on the voters' list. Students living
in residence are liable to be chal-
lenged when they appear at the
polls Thursday, and their right to
vote in that riding cancelled.
The Election Act clause in ques-
tion states that to vote a person
must "ordinarily be a resident of a
city, town or township over 10,000
in population at the date of Issue
of the writ of election." The ques-
tion, according to one law student,
is whether or not the students
were "ordinarily" residents of their
university residences when the writ
was Issued Oct. 6.
The Returning Officer for St.
Patrick's District, which includes
the majority of university resi-
dences, was not available for com-
ment last night, However, accord-
ing to one Vic student, sooie of the
resident students were included on
the voters' list with his knowledge.
John Rutherford, Vic CCF Or-
ganizer, said that when Burwash
Hall residents were not included
on the first voters' list, he saw tha
Returning Officer, Marvin Turk,
who had them added.
The CCF candidate for St. Pat-
rick's said last night < through his
official agent) that he would be
working to keep the names of the
students on the voters' list. He
added it might help if they swore
the residence was their heme.
Kelso Roberts, the Progressive
Conservative candidate, commented
that if a student has been enumer-
ated and his name appears on the
voters" list, he should make every
effort to vote. "My advice to the
students is to present themselves
at the polls if their names appear
on the list."
The Lil>eral candidate. Walt
Mackenzie, would only state that
he would follow any decision made
by Major Lewis.

be attending the Edinburgh Con-
ference next month. There is only
one which beats it— The National
Uiuon of Students of England, Wales
and Northern Ireland— but no one
ever calls this anything but the
British National Union of Students.
Therefore it seems the first thing
for which students have to be thank-
ful to NPCOS is that its initial are
phonetically pronounceable.
Wh4» ?
Everyone belongs to NFCUS,
■Whether they realize it or not. Even
If you don't approve of the principle
of the organization, you still pay
your fees when you pay your in-
cidental fees in the fall.
Twenty cents o( yoor $5.00 stu-
dent's council fees goes to the na-
tional headquarters of NFCUS in
Ottawa. The only way to stop pay-
ment of this money <which comes to
about $2,200 from the Toronto cam-
pus) is to f-fuse to vote it out of
SAC funds. This means a complete
break with the national body.
Some people have decided to get
along without NFCUS. Queen's has
been out of the organization for two
years now. And Manitoba is threat-
ening to leave, becau^2 the UMSU
(that's their student council) budget
can't afford ft.
However, as long as the "dynamic
spirit of internationalism" recently
mentioned by Syd Wax lasts on this
campus, Toronto isn't likely to with-
draw.
And anyway. $1,000 of our NFCUS
fee is already in Ottawa.
Whore ?
Eighteen universities belong to
NFCUS, and they stretch from
British Columbia in the west to
Dalhousle in the east.
They have been divided into four
regions: the Maritimes, Quebec, On-
tario, and the West.* Each region
elects a Regional Vice-President. In
addition the entire country elects
a President. These five people sit
on the National Executive.
This year a sixth member may be
added to that body. There is a con-
stitutional amendment going the
rounds to make the Chairman of
the International Activities Com-
mission a voting member of the E^x-
ecutive.
This makes the NFCUS Chairman
at the University of Manitoba see
red. He is afraid that it will upset
the whole regional organization of
NFCUS. But Toronto thinks it's a
good idea.
It seems to be the fashion nowa-
days for groups of similar people to
band together in larger organiza-
tions. The Canadian Manufacturers
have done it. Unions do it. Canadian
universities have done it. And the

Canadian university students have
done it.
Jus: as the other larger groups
have formed national bodies, so the
students formed NFCUS. The rea-
son is fairly obvious. A group of
45,000 (the present national univer-
sity population) is going to be heard
much more than a group of 11,000
(as at Toronto), or 1,100, or 110. In
other words, NFCUS is a pressure
group, to represent Canadian stu-
dents wherever their interests are at
stake.
Looking at it on a higher plane, ,
another purpose of NFCUS is to al-
low an interchange of students and
ideas between the different sections
of Canada. This it does through
Canadian regional exchanges, and
exchanges between Canadian and
American universities.
The all-Canadian side of this has
proved highly successful in the
past. Several students from other
parts of Canada are studying at
Toronto under this scheme.
Whether or not NFCUS' lobby
action has been successful will be
discussed in a later article. How-
ever^ in the early years of its form-
ation, the national body certainly
did get down to work. Among other
things it arranged special student
railway rates at Christmas, organ-
ized Canadian University Press (now
a separate organization, although
NFCUS continually discusses it at
the annual conference), got dis-
counts on sporting goods for stu-
dents, and organized a national de-
bating competition <to wiiich To-
ronto is just returning this year,
after many years' abence).
Since the war, NFCUS has not
achieved a'great deal o^ a practical
nature. One of the most outstanding
works has bse.i a 19-page booklet
entitled "So You're Going to
Europe," which describes everything
a prospective world -traveller might
need to know: passports, where to
stay, hostel groups, etc.
It presented a brief to the Massey
Commission on the Arts, Letters and
Sciences regarding the need for
more financial aid to students. It
is working on a national drama
festival and a national seminar. For
the past two years Toronto was in-
vestigating text book prices, to dis-
cover ways of lowering them; the
mandate has now passed to {
western university.
Since the war, International ac-
tivities (such as the Stockholm and
Edinburgh Conference of Western
Student Unions) have been of great
interest in NFCUS: — have even
stolen the limelight away from the
national work. The Canadian body
has slowly grown in stature until
now it is beginning to take a lead-
ing role in world student affairs. The

Great difficulty was experienced
in obtaining a judge who was par-

equanimity. A graduate of this

War No Use
Pacifist Claim
Until a sufficiently large num-
ber of our citizens come to the point
ol saying, T will not support our
country in the event of war', ttie
pacifist movement will not be ef-
fective," stated Reverend J. Lovell
Smith at the Campus Fellowship
for Reconciliation Club meeting
yesterday.
Speaking to twenty students at
Emmanuel College, Reverend
Smith, minister at the Church of
All Nations, indicated that he had
been a pacifist since 1918, after
serving as a Canadian army officer
in Europe.
Reverend Smith presented the
reasons for his aversion to war
under the headings of practical,
patriotic and moral reasons. "Not
a single aim of the First World
War was accomplished," said
Smith, "for Democracy is no
safer". The speaker then praised
the idea in Harry Fosdick's state-
ment: "The only thing a nation
learns by being defeated in war
is not to be defeated again."
Although the First Great War
ended Germany's aggression, re-
leased millions from political bond-
age, and overthrew the tyrannical
Hapsburgs and Romanoffs, the
former two situatiMis did not last
most recent example of this, of
course, is the now notorious "RUS'
sian question".
At present NFCUS is vsfprking on a
number of projects which, if com-
pleted and implemented, will be a
great boon to the Canadian student.
The only trouble is that too often
three -year- old projects (such as the
text price investigation and the
seminar) are no further ahead than
when they were first begun.
1
and the latter event would
occurred anyway.
The 186 billion dollars and
i million people spent Id the
of 1914-18, though stagering^
dwarfed in comparison with'
cost of the recent war, the s
pointed out.
"If the blood bath would rid
world of hate, greed and viol
we should be more liable j/^^
cuse the cost." Smith added,
my personal feelings are that
only adds to hate."
Smith suggested that war "r-
us of the very freedoms which
are supposed to be defending",
mentioned the curtailment oi [-
speech, false propaganda, censei
ship of the press, and the regim~
tation of citizens as examples
the deterioration of pem~
liberties in wartime,
"Many are taught to lie,
and kill during war. This mariis
decline of moral values,"
Smith.
"It is the ultimate heresy of
Church to go to war," stated
Smith. "It is a way of saying
God no longer controls the woi
he added. He quoted several
sages from the Bible to shon
"the teachings of Jesus can
quoted to support pacifism."
Gandhi's theory that one sh
absorb evil rather than ret "
was referred to by the speaker
a wise form of resistance.
The Camfor Club has heard
resentatives of both pacifist
non-pacifist ideas in the past '
weeks. It was announced yest
that the next session of the
would probably take the form a
discussion in which the Taerti"
would attempt to take a concl
stand on the subject of pacif

The annual University College
French Play "Les Plaideurs" by
Jean Racine will be presented in
Hart House Theatre on Wednes-
day. November 21. The play is to
be taken, sets, costumes, and all
to McMaster, the University of
Ottawa, and the University of
Montreal after its initial presenta-
tion here.
Let Plaideurs, the ,only com-
edy ever written by Racine, is a
witty mockery of the legal prac-
tices of the day and of plaideurs
of pdaintiffs who were happy only
when filing a suit. Its great popu-
larity seems to indicate that the
author could have been as success-
ful in the field of comedy as he
is in that of classical tragedy.
The sets, termed "Magnificent"
by Mr. Finch and "Eye-knocking"
by the Wardrobe Mistress were de-
signed by Hubert Fielden-Briggs.
The costumes were especially
made for this play by Mrs. Vicien
Keogh, who has made a particular
study of the dress of the 17th oen-
Principal Jeanneret commented
that "Les Plaideurs" should be
seen by everyone interested in
classical comedy of the Moliere
school.

Varsity Mission
Canon Milford, Chief Missioner
in next January's University Chris-
tian Mission is now Chancellor of
Lincoln Cathedral. Canon Milford
carries on for Bishop Neill, who
conducted tlie Varsity Mission in
1949, and who had to cancel his
coming to Toronto in 1952.
Last year Milford preached at a
Varsity church service, and led a
group of professors at the Hart
House Farm on the purpose of a
university. In Britain he has
worked with Sir Walter Moberley,
author of Crisis in the University.
When asked to lead the mission
at Varsity in 1952, the Canon
warned: "X am very, very English."
He is a graduate of Magdalene
College, Oxford, in Litterae Hu-
man i ores.
At Cambridge the Canon gradu-
ated in theology, and thence went
to St. John's College. Agra, India,
as a lecturer in philosophy. From
1935 to 1938 he was Study Secretai-y
of the British SCM, and from thei-e
was appointed Vicar of St. Mary's,
the University Church at Oxford.
Milford has written two pamphlets:
A Christian Philosophy of Sex, and
Freedom and Discipline, and he is
currently writing a work on tlie
Atonement. Latest report on Dick
Milford is that he will discuss his
debate in Finland with philosopher
Gilbert Ryle. The Canon, I believe,
has a sense of humour, and is a
whiz at question and answer ses-
sions.
With Milford will be a bevy of as-
sociate speakers from Canada and
the United States.
balcony viewpoint
By FRANK MORITSUGU
What ruins a war film more than anything else I-*; phonhiess. And
the newest entry locally, FOROE OP ARMS (at the Impeiial) is a bad
film because it is essentially phony.
It is hard to place the blame for this insincerity, but I suspect the
original story by World War H correspondent Richard TTegaksis may
be the major fault. Quite probably this is not an intentianal slant on
Tregaksis' part, but his wort Ca war novel, Stronger Than Fear, is
another example) has tended to be superficial, a bringing-together of
all battle cliches into a phony development.
But at least. In Stronger Than Fear, which deals with the last
stages of the battle in Germany, the hero falls in action. As FORCE
OP ARMS ground on. my partner said; "He's going to die, isn't he?"
referring to hero Bill Holden. But he couldn't die, because after all he
was such a clean-cut Ajnerican boy and he was loved by a clean-cut
American gu-1 (Nancy Olson) who virtuously repulsed his advances at
the early stages of their acquaintance. The repulsing showed that she
was a good girl, and good girls don't get hurt in a picture hke this one,
not permanently that is.
There Is more than just kinship in titles between FORCE OP
ARMS and A Farewell to Arms. The hero is a tough, well-educated,
self-sacrificing sergeant in the Italian campaign. He meets the WAO
lieutenant at a rest camp and falls m love. Back in action, now as a
field commission looie, he is more cautious because he must return to
Her. His bud&y dies, and guilt preys on the hero because he did not
make what would have been a futile attempt to save his friend. Out
of this theme could have come a tremendous movie.
But from the opening scene, which is a skirmish with a German
position on an Italian hill, there is an air of studio unreality. This
unreality keeps on cancelling out the effectiveness of the battle scenes,
even if actual combat shots are pasted in. And as the movie goes on,
the principals are so articulate when worrying about each other's
futures and such-like stuff, that the talk sounds more like a bull session
in the Plaza Room between campus intellectuals. (The screenplay by
Orin Jannings may be to blame here, or it may be still the Tregaksis
touch.)
The story also suffers from an over-obvious sequence of events.
Never do we wonder what is going to happen next. It always happens
the way we know it is going to. So we know .the hero is not really dead,
although everyone in the film acts as \1 he was. And he isn't either.
To add to the shoddiness, the film is underlined by one of the most
cliche-ridden musical scores in Hollywood history. Herbert Whitfaker
has mentioned "My Buddy" in the tense hospital scene when the
soldier and his WAC meet after he has been wounded. A further
deftness is the booming signature of Beethoven's Fifth when the victor-
ious AUles march into Rome. But there are a million of 'em.
And in the ending, the bells ring out in glorious clanging. "It's for
the victoiT," says the girl, her muddy ecstatic face uplifted in joy and
relief. "No, it's for us. you and me," corrects the unshaven hero, and
so it ends happily ever after. Except that he has a permanent bad leg,
and she's going to have a baby.
It Ls to the credit of William Holden and Nancy Olson that, despite
all this corny muck, their performances are earnest and sincere. Frank
Lovejoy is thrown away as the major-buddy who is killed.
Director Michael Curtiz should stick to fables about Young Men
With A Horn. And writer Richard Tregaicsis and Warner Brothers'
head composer Ma.t Steiner should drop dead.
I suppose it should be said also that FORCE OF ARMS isn't quite
"the greatest love story every told."

Editor, The Varsity:
The Canadian Communists
would be no more worthy of at-
tention than the vegetarians or
the Bloc Populaire if it were not
for the fact that they are the
intellectual agents for a foreign
nation, controljing an interna- ■
tional "party" which is opposed
to the hberal democratic tradi-
tion. Because they are admitted
representatives of this move-
ment we must give them a refu-
tation rather than a treatment
even when it is manifestly clear
that the latter is needed.
To the illiberal totalitarian
mind the truth is that which the
authority (such as the leader,
the party or the book) says is
true. A Communist believes that
South Korea started the war
there on the infallible authority
of the party.
One method of refuting the
Communists is to point out the
difference between the truth as
defined by the party hierarchy
and the truth as most reasonable
people see it as they look around
them. I am not naive enough to
believe that we can destroy the
faith of the Communist in that
way but we can at least keep the
record straight and prevent him
from confusing us.
Last Thursday, Shirley Endi-
cott. the leading Communist on
the campus, chaired a meeting at
UC during which Norman Pen-
ner, former leader of the Young
Communist League, discussed
"the crisis in the CCP" and the
provincial election. Mr. Penner
5poke very eloquently about the
"right wing leadership of JoHiffe
and Coldwell". He argued that
they were supporting "the war
policies of the St. Laurent gov-
ernment". Most of us at the
meeting have heard this line
time and time again but before
long something new had been
added, a revolt in the ranks of
the Ontario CCP. He named
three CCP MPP's who have op-
posed the "war" policies of their
party and were receiving Com-
munist support in the provin-
cial election. His whole speech
consisted of lies, half-truths and
slander (all of which he and
Miss Endicott sincerely believed
as loyal party members with In-
telligent and well - disciplined
minds) but this last part was
so fantastic that I thought I
would check it. Friday at Bloor
Collegiate, two of these MPP's
appeared on a public platform
with their warmongering leader.
(I am being sarcastic, don't quote
me out of context.)
After the meeting I spoke to
Lloyd Fell, MPP for Parkdale
and Harry Walters, MPP for
Bracondale and told them about
Mr. Penner's little speech at UC.
Their comments were very in-
teresting. Both men, needless to
say. want peace and not war.
Walters does not disagree with
CCF foreign policy and did not
ask for nor does he want Com-
munist support. Tlie same goes
for Fell who says that he has
had to toss Communist "peace"
delegations out of his house and if
Penner continues to use his name
to support Communist foreign
policy he will take legal action.
Before closing. I would remind
Miss Endicott and her small band
of party faithfuls that it would
be more judicious to have guest
speakers talk about the glories
of life in the USSR and in the
party's New Dictatorships of
Eastern Europe. The trouble
about talking about happenings
in the old hc^ town is that we
can check up.

Editor, The Varsity:
Mr. She5>herd in his letter to
The Varsity Nov. 13 asks "Peace
and What? Mr. Anderion". I
must attempt to answer.
There are different areas to
which the word peace applies:
international, national, and per-
sonal. Let us concern ourselves
with the first of these.
By peace I mean absence of
armed conflict between nations,
but more tUan this negativism.
Peace stands for a relationship
of tnist and goodwill between na-
tions. Peace means bilateral dis-
armament with inspection. Peace
means the destruction of atomic
bombs and outlawing their pi-o-
duction and the production of gas
and bacteria for war. Peace means
trade and cultm-al exchanges be-
tween all countries. Peace means
non-interference by force of
arms, econcjmic power or social
pressui-es on the internal affairs
of other nations. Peace means
freedom from fear, from want,
freedom of religion and speech,
freedom from war propaganda
(i.e., licence of speech).
I will be surprised if Mr. Shep-
herd disagrees radically with the
above definitions, but he may be
surprised to know that it is de-
rived directly from the Warsaw
Nine Points of the World Peace
Congress. It is to this kind of
peace that the Appeal for a Five
Power Peace Pact is directed.
We haven't peace today by this
definition. How are we, the ordi-
nai-y folk, to .achieve it? Can you,
Mr. Shepherd, suggest a better
way than petitioning the Five
Great Powers to get togetlier and
sign a Pact of Peace and then sit
domi and negotiate until the con-
ditions of the definition are real-
ized—or, machinery set up for
their realization?
Please note I only used the
nasty little word (my una.-^hamed
obsession) 15 times.

Editor, The Varsity:
We have -been hnmbled . . . ?
Wiiat does kaleidoscope mean?
Like Becky ShaJT>e, we thi-ew our
dictionarj' out the window after
leaving school. But alas! — al-
ready we have erred, for our ref-
ence to poor Becky is faintly re-
miniscent of Mr. Crang's pedant
who discoursed at great length on
Browning's Pra Lippo. without so
much as a "Pleased ta meetcha!"
We feel that Mr. Crang beheves
practicality to be the spice of life —
maj^be so, but what is (le doing in
a liberal arts course? He feels
that the English department as-
sumes too much in setting a com-
iwsition test. Perhaps he would
prefer a course in some foreign
lanj-ua-ge to the one offered by
the English department. If Mr.
Crang learned Italian, he could
always switch to that, taking ad-
vantage of an awkward situation,
and probably his conversation as,
when an English sentence be-
came a paragraph (rather like
this one), the pmictuation foggy,
and such words as "interkinefiis"
inappropriate.
After reading Mr. Crang's let-

par Lagerkvist - '51 Winner
Of Nobel Literature Prize
<'Barabbas" — Par Lagerkvist,
pandom House, 1951, $2.00.
, 3t week Far Lagerkvist, the
S^vedis^i playwright, poet, essayist.
rt^story writer, and novelist,
iS^ awarded the 1951 Nobel prize
I r litei'ature (which, incidentally,
■nounted to over 32.000 dollars).
ADparently the award was pre-
resented for Lagerkvisfs earlier
vork because his latest novel,
-Barabbas", seems scarcely for-
thy of such an honour as the Nobel
prize-
perhaps the idea for "Barabbas"
^as conceived without the influ-
ence of recent American novels,
but it appears to be a product of
the trend to deal with obscure
Biblical personalities. The suc-
cess of Lloyd Douglas' "The Robe"
created a swift succession of nov-
els whose subjects varied from ■
Pilate's wife and the daughter of
jalrus to Luke, the apostle. It
jnust be conceded that these top-
ics are of interest, because often
one finds himself trying to recon-
struct the life of a character who
appears briefly on the stage of
history. Now, one may save him-
self some mental stress and mere-
ly wait until a novelist writes a
book on the subject.
The New Testament nientions
Barabbas as the condemned thief
who is released in place of Jesus
6t the time of the Passover feast.
The Biblical account makes it
clear that the shouts of the mob
saved Barabbas from ci-ucifixion
in preference to freeing the man
who claimed to be the son of God.
But Lagerkvist provides his hero
with a guilty conscience without
attempting to explain why Bamb-
bas, who had nothing to do with
his own release much less with
Jesus* crucifixion, should feel re-
sponsible.
The author also makes exten-
fiive use of unconvincing coinci-
dence to place Barabbas ir
places desirable for the movement
of the theme which deals with the
spiritual angiiish springing from
the aforementioned guilt complex,
Barabbas runs into the disgiimtled
apostles even when seeking to
avoid them. He is present at the
sepulchre when Christ is freed
from the tomb by "an angel in a
mantle of fire . . . rushing down
from heaven with arm outstretch-
ed like the point of a speare." He
watches angry scribes stoning the
Christian martyrs, and stumbles
unsuspectingly inio an under-
ground meeting of the disciples
The final stroke of fortune places
him in a Roman dungeon withi
Saint Peter.
The character, Barabbas. is as
dead throughout the novel as if he
had been crucified, rather than
freed, in the fii'st chapter. Lagerk-
vist never gives us a good look in-
to the mind he is trying to reveal.
Instead, we are given a vague im-
pression that something is troubl-
ing Barabbas, and that it is prob-
ably this incomprehensible feeling
of guilt. Most of our hazy insights
int« the anguished mind are pro-
vided through glimpses into the
thoughts of Babbbas' friends.
The author uses up six pages de-
scribing the opinions of a portly
prostitute who is upset because
Barabbas has degene.-ated from
an active lover to a moody think-
These painfully developed
ideas are destroyed with a flick of
the pen which writes: "But at last
it came to her that in actual fact
she knew nothing at all about
Barabbas , , , whether he was
possessed by that crucified man's
spirit or not."
Although it is considered unfair
to quote authors out of context,
many of Lagerkvisfs gems are
out of context when read in the
book. The hackneyed maxims of
Christianity inserted at unlikely
and frequent intervals become
tiresome toward the end of the
novel.
First century atmosphere is al-
most completely lacking, but we
re given a convincing estimate
of the confusion which faced the
earliest Christians in attempting
to separate fact from lumour.
understand the new philosophy
and to nourish the faith through
its insecure beginnings.
Perhaps the translator, Alan
Blair, may be blamed for the col-
orless style. Blair probably con-
fused the author's thrifty style for
dull simplicity.
However, we must toss a bou-
quet toward Random House pub-
lishers who amaze by manufactur-
ing a two-dollar novel to look like
a deluxe gift edition.

'Unfulfilled' Reviews
Canadian Problems
The Unfulfilled by George Hardy,
McClelland & Stewart, 1951. S3.50.
George Hardy is a Canadian au-
thor with an impressive career
behind him of scholastic and liter-
ary success. At present he is head
of the Depaitment of Classics at
the University of Alberta and has
written three good historical nov-
els, the most recent one being a
study of Moses called "AU The
Trumpets Sounded.
In The Unfulfilled however, Prof.
Hardy turns to the contemporary
Canadian scene in an attempt to|>
describe the position of Canadians
who feel themselves squeezed in
betvi'een the conflicting influences
of England and United States.
All the superstitions that seem
to accompany a stretch of land
that has been settled and whose
boundaries have been defined are
expressed in this novel, for ex-
ample, "Somehow I feel that there
is a Canadian type . . ." "Puritan-
ism is a strong sti-aln in Canada,"
and finally the old bogey that our
only defence against a rising tide
of Americanism is a truly Cana-
dian culture.
Although British influence is
given some consideration the di-
rect and vital influence to be com-
batted turns out to be the U,S
Wesley Drummond and Gregory
Rolph both represent the split
within Canadian Society, the weal-
thy financier and tJie ordinary,
struggling white-collar man, and
yet both are at one regardless of
their class differences in trying
to struggle free.— from dependence
on U.S. capital on the one hand
and the beacon of Hollywood suc-
ess on the othei.
An American reading The Unful-
filled would probably be amused
and slightly annoyed at the way in
which Gregory Rolph and his son
approach New York as a place to
vent all the pent-up emotions which
a Puritan Toronto would frown up-
on, and then smugly decide to re-
turn to the staider and more vir-
tuous life north or the border,
once they have had their fling.
Perhaps we are being unfair, but
we simply don't go for this line-
that our cultural salvation lies in
a defiant attitude towards Ameri-
can influence. We rather agree
Van Vogt Science Thriller
Depicts New Race of Men
Slan by A. E. VanVofft, Muason BofA Company,
1951, 52.50.
"Slan." is one of the early classics in the mod-
em school of science-fiction, has been reprinted.
This story was first printed in a magazine— and
the issue containing the story has been since un-
available. A limited edition was printed in book
form in 1945. It sold out quickly and copies have
since been selling for up to $20. Now the book is
once again available
The slan is a superhuman being of the distant
future; hunted, persecuted, and killed on sight by
the waning race of liomo sapiens. The humans
bave the added advantage as the slan Is anatomic-
ally different internallv and has golden tendrils
his head— organs of a new telepathic sense.
'i'he plot follows the slan Peter Cross on his
search for the true history of the slan race. Rum-
or has it that the race was created by the machine
of a scientist named Samuel Lann— S. Lann— as a
niutation of humanity. Upon discovery a conflict
began after termed the "Slan Wars", as the accusa-
tion was made that the original slans were in-
creasing theh- numbers by use of the machine
i^pon humans. As a result the slans were appar-
ently decimated and the human race reduced to
a twentieth of their present numbers.
Cross doesn't quite believe this — he'd never
think of doing such a thing himself and as he
Kradually meets other slans he finds that they
ai'e of similar mind. Then enters the villians— ten-
tlrilless slans who are perpetrating these evU deeds
an incidental to conquering the world from a
■^ase on Mars. These have an intense hatred of the
t^He slans— their only obstacle— and humans who
^'ley consider due to theU- inferior inteUigence
strength lit only for slaves.
,^The burden of the plot relates how Peter With
aid of the latest In atomic disintegrators and
the love interest finds his way to the true slan
underground tthey are posing as the rulers of the
World State) just in time to thwart the plans
of the villains and recover the gul he lost a few
chapters before. He also finds out the ti-ue history
of the Elan race.
But the plot in any science-fiction book is gen-
erally merely the building the machinery rests in.
and Slan is a fu-st-rate example of this. Van Vogt
starts from a basically plausible hypothesis— sup-
pose the time should come for a mass mutation
of the human race. Such an event may have ac-
counted for the vanishing of assorted types of
prehistoric men, hence why not for homo the
sap?
But I*fan hates all that is strange or miusual
and fights it. However a successful or survival
mutation will have superior inteUigence and
strength, and hence the ability to fight back and
eventually to win. It is this situation that forms
the storj' in the book.
Technology has been pretty well developed in
the ten years since the story was first published
and all that remains is sufficient time for the
theory to be put into practice. All that can
really be said about this sort of work is that-
well, it hasn't happened yet and maybe It won't
—but it could.
Science-fiction is now becoming an acknowledg-
ed field of literature, no longer confined to
"penny-dieadfuls" with bug-eyed monsters and
scantiiy-clad women on the covers. A few more
well -designed books such as this and it will have
at long last achieved respectability. And with re-
gard to this may we express one final hope —
since one science- fiction book passes through
the hands of so many readers, let us have bind-
ings as smart and as dtu-able as that on Slan.
Richard Clec.
Colette has been called the greatest living writer In Prance by
Gide and lauded by Somerset Maugham as a painstaking artist, whose
every word has been carefiilly selected. How a vivacious young girl
rrom Burgundy ever managed to take the everyday experiences of her
youth and shape them into permanent literature ii a good question.
We are probably more indebted to llie Iriend of the family. Gauthier
Villars who married her. carried her off to Paris, and locked her in
her room until she had written down her impressions of her life at
school, which were published as the Claudine series, than has as yet
been acknowledged.
This act of discipline on the part of Gauthier-Villars (known as
"Willy") hardly justified his taking advantage of his wife's talent in
the way that he did by signing his name to his wife's work. Colette
left him in 1906 for the stage, but still continued to write fictionalii*;d
versions of her experiences through World Wars I and IT.
Seldom has a writer been able to mamtain such a steady output
and still manage an active life that ranged from participation in
Music Hall Varieties, to Volunteer War Work to various jobs as fashions
editor, dramatic writer and featuie reporter for several Paris news-
pspers.
In 1945, at the age of 77, Colette was awarded the PrLx Goncourt,
an award a\:ii!able to only ten livinc French artists at one time.
Colette is now chairman of this select committee and although prac-
tically an invalid, still makes her appearance in French society on
special occasions, the last one being a performance of "The Mad Wom-
an or Chaillof in which a friend of hers starred.
Colette has had a few ardent admirers on the North American
continent because of her simple sensuous way of writing about human
beings. She is not interested in ideas or manners in themselves, but
rather in the antics of the human animal. Slie is a "poet and historian
of the instincts", but she never descends to describing man at his
worst simply for the sake of throwing dirt in her readers' faces.
Canadians will be slven ample opportunity to read Colette for
themselves this season for British Book Service has published a new
translation of her works (e.g., Ciier^ and Last of Cheri, $2.75i and
Longmans Green has recently issued ilx of her novels in one volume
(Six Novels of Colette, (6.25).

with Prof. Underbill that for better
or for worse tliere is little differ-
ence between Canadians and
Americans. We must rather learn
to take the best from the U.S., not
deliberately cultivate a local cul-
ture which will in the end prove
narrow and insufficient for tlie
times, ou can't just put boundar-
ies on tlie cultural development of
a nation the way you can limit it
geographically.
But enough of culture-mongering.
To return to Prof. Hardy's book,
we would like to add that its struc-
ture and plot is smoothly concoct-
ed but that the emotional tenor of
the novel often tends to slow up
the flow of words. Hearts sob
just once too often, and the char-
acters tend to become uninterest-
ing when they get lost in a flood
or emotions only too familiar to
the reader of Canadian novels.
Perhaps the reason we are so
critical of this particular novel lies
in the fact tliat it is so much bet-
ter than the average. Yet Cana-
dian writers never seem be able to
lift their creations into the realm
of genuine literary accomplish-
ment. Whether or not they do it
on the strength on a sort of liter-
ary sophistication we associate
with English novelists, or on the
strength of an intense realism
which some American writers have
perfected we don't particularly
care.
Tlic thin? is that we are looking
for a treatment which will give
rise to the immediate reaction:
"THIS, at least, could never pos-
sibly be run as a serial in the
Family Herald and Weekly Star."

McCracken, Musson Book Com-
pan.v. 1951, S3. 25.
The name of Robert McCracken
will be familiar to many Canadians
especially to McMaster grads who
took Prof. McCracken 's lectures
in Phi losophy during the ei gbt
years he taught at that University.
In 1947 he accepted a call to
preach at the famous Riverside
Church in New York, wliere he
succeeded Harry Emerson Foa-
dick as minister of one of the larg-
e.st churches in New York.
A Selection of Prof. McCracken's
sermons have been published in
book form covering a variety of
subjects from "Why Did Jesus
j Die?" to "Is There an Art in Liv-
ing in New York City?" The style
I of thes ecolumns is flawless and
I .should be studied by students ol
I the ministry. However one can-
not help but feel that these ser-
mons are muted by the very na-
ture of the position of the protes-
tant preacher. For such a minis-
ter can never be certain of the
status of his audience and as a
consequence he is forced to ap-
peal lo unbeliev ers and, in the
course of the same sermon, to ap-
peal to the Lord Jesus Christ, in
order to reassure the believers
that he is still on the in-
side track even althought he
has spent the first ten minutes
.showing in a very convincing way
that it is possible to start from the
outside completely and come to
God.
Prof. McCracken leans very
heavily on the traditional strong-
points of the Baptist Convention,
like belief in a personal God and
the immediate necessity that faith
be continually substantiated by
good works. According to him,
human nature (although this is
never defined) can be changed and
man will share eternity with God.
In one sermon. "Doing What
Comes Naturally" Prof. McCrack-
en finds his grounds of objection
to this particular philosophy in
reasons that hold good both within
and outside the confines of the
Christian faith, and we think it A
telling fact that this particular ser-
mon is one of the most convincinj
in the selection,
Otherwise there is little that Is
new or convincing for Uie non-
chi isLian and much that will warm
the heart of the stout believer who
is in .complete accord with the au-
thority on which Prof. McCi-acken
bases his appeals for the regenera-
tion of man.

It was a dirty deal the football team pulled on the Ath-
letic Association, winning the Yates Cup on the last game
of. the regular season. Practically on its own flesh and blood,
it committed this offence — where would the football team be
without the Athletic Association? There were Mr. Stevens,
and generous old Mr. Loosemore, all waiting for a play-off
with McGill, and the extra gate receipts that would result.
Just think, they might have paid off the debt on the tar-
paulin. Or even reduced the Athletic Fee (stop laughing,
Dnieper).
Of course, this doesn't mean that anyone at Varsity
would have wanted McGill to win. That would be disloyal.
Down in the States, university staff get investigated by the
Senate for disloyalty.
But those darn Blues won just the same, and there was
BO play-off. Well, the hockey team didn't really want to go
down to Colorado this year anyway.
If the football season's ending without a play-off hurt
the Athletic Association, take a look at what it's done to us,
,With a gap of three weeks now between the end of the foot-
ball season and the start of the basketball schedule. Inter-
collegiate Sport has come to a standstill. Just a few short
days ago we had no space; now we have nothing else but.
If worst comes to worst, we might even have to start giving
coverage to the hockey team.
However, any sports editor with half a clue has several
ways of getting out of a situation like this. The easiest is to
call a meeting of the Sports Staff. In this method, he runs a
notice listing the names of everybody that has been seen
near the sports desk over a period of at least three years, in
the largest possible type, and requests their presence at a
meeting at a stated date and time. This fills up an amazing
amount of space.
A certain amount of foresight must be e.^ercised in this
sort of thing in order to get the most out of it. If, for ex-
ample, a news famine of three days is expected, the astute
spoi'ts editor calls the meeting for four days hence, and runs
the announcement for three days. By this time there is lots
of material, and reporters aren't needed so the few, stubborn
souls that come to the meeting are sent away and don't come
back until the old familiar notice appears again.
However, comes a time when even the most faithful
sports staffer refuses to respond when the sports editor has
a space to fill. These are the times when the reader is con-
fronted with articles utterly unconnected with University
life, such as columns on George Ratterman. or articles on
Pete Karpuk's latest misdemeanor.
And then, if all else fails, we relent and start covering
the hockey team. But it they leave us flat by winning the
chamoionshin without ^ olayoff too . . .
Hockey Starts
U C Edges Vic
In Group Two
The intramural hockey season got
off to an unimpressive but promis-
ing start yesterday wilJi tliree
games fcai'ded. The feature contest
was in Group 2 when Jr. Vic and
Jr. UC met in a noon-hour game.
The Red and White overcame a
two-goal deficit to edge Vic 3-2.
Mason scored both goals for Vic,
one early in the first period and the
second early in the second frame.
Then the- UC six turned on the
beat. Duff netting a pair to tie the
count and Yakimoff getting the
winner.
Both teams had plenty of chances
in the first stanza but they seemed
to lack the polish on their plays to
put tthe puck in the net. Outside of
Mason's unassisted goal at the 2-
minute mark, play was even
throughout tlie first. Seager, the
Vic goaler, was able to keep the UC
team off the scoresheet although he
gave the sparse crowd several
scares with his peculiar netminding
style.
The second period was more spir-
ited. At the 2-minute mark it was
Mason again stealing the puck at
tbe blue line and going in alone to
score. Duff got UC back in the con-
test on a breakaway and at 11 min-
utes was given credit for one that
drittbled in from a scramjble in
front of the nets. Finally at the 16-
minute mark Yakimoff put the
game on ice as he flipped a rebound
past Seager,
There were a couple of other
games carded. Pre-lfeds and Jr.
SPS battled to a 1-1 draw. Robert-
son from McDougall scored for the
doctors and Campbell took a pass
from Jamieson to count for Skule.
The last game of the day found Vic
HI whipping UC UI 4-1. Taylor had
a pair for the Scarlet and Gold,
tielped by Shirer and Spencer with
singletons. Joe Ste^ian got the lone
UC tally.
By JEW PROUDFOOT
In a 'game that meant absolutely nothing to them, a
weak Meds team reached the lowest point of a notably un-
successful season yesterday when they were completely ovr-
whelmed by the Senior UC team. The win, to a 44-0 tune,
cinched a playoff berth for the Red and White and at the
same time ended the scant chance that Sr. SPS had of mak-
ing the playdowns. Had UC lost, the Skulemen could have
beaten UC by winning their remaining game.
Shifty and speedy, Ed Richard-
son gave a peak performance in
the UC backfield, powering for
four touchdowns. Ralph Brown
was outstanding, too, with one
major score and three converts to
his credit. Paterson called a clever
game at quarterback, mixing ac-
curate passes with a relentless
ground attack. But the plays un-
folded behind airtight blocking
and the defensive play was great.
UC scored on the very first play
of the game and the doctors never
seemed to recover. Naumoff took
the kick-off and the Meds receiver
was nailed for a rouge. Meds put
the ball in play on their 25, got
nowhere on two plays and kicked
to the 48. A ten-yard penalty put
UC back to the center stripe and
on the first play Richardson broke
through the line and ghosted all
the way for a major which Brown
converted. Meds elected to re-
ceive but UC recovered the ball.
They made one first down and
then Richardson took a pltchout
on third down and raced around
the outside for another touchdown.
The convert attempt was no good
this time at the end of the quarter.
Meds took the VC kick-off on
their 20 and the QB faded to pass
but his throw was intercepted on
the 27. Danny Cucin went for a
first down behind very pretty
blocking. Again the blacking threw
up a shield for Brown to run wide
for five points again. He kicked
the convert too. Meds had the ball
a couple of times but got nowhere
and Richardson liad been stopped
at the goal line after a 40-yard
, romp as the half ended.
Meds recovered their own kick
but their backfield fumbled and
UC took over on the 40. On one
try, Richardson was smothered for
a loss but he went for a TD next
time on a hand-off play that
fairly exploded. Brown booted the
extra point. Meds kicked after two
attempts, UC took the ball to the
two but it was not a first down.
Meds clicked with a pass to the
ten but the receiver dropped it.
That man Richardson picked up
the loose ball and had clear saO.
ing for another major. A bad snap
ruined the convert try.
The start of the third quarter
fffund UC deep in Meds territory
and Patterson hit Jack McParlane
with a forward in the end zone to
count again. Meds took the kick-
off but lost the ball on a fumble on
their 25. Goberis carried to the
one and plunged over on the next
play. The try for the extra point
was blocked. Again Meds trie<l,
this time a long pass which Cucia
nabbed. There was a first dov/n
and a penalty on Meds gave UC
the ball on Meds' five for the last
play of the game. Wass got into
the act, gathering in a touchdown
pass and nobody cared when the
convert kick was low.
The Red and White team was
consistently good. Richardson and
Brown stood out offensively and
Danny Cucin sparkled on defence
while striking for long gains too.
For Meds, Wheeler was kicking
well till he was hurt but it was no
contest.
THE SCORE
44-0
Varsity^s Ed Brennan
Out For Cage Season
Ed Brennan, captain of the Blue
basketball team and all-star guard
last year, will be lost to the Blues
this season unless chronic leg in-
juries heal up very fast. Bother-
ed by his shin splints and weak
ankles all last season. Ed has
found that they are worse rather
than better this year. In addition,
he has a knee ailment which he
aggravated this fall playing soccer,
Brennan is in his final year at
St. Mike's. Basketball coach Bob
Masterson was not counting on
him to come back when the sea-
son was over last year because
Eddie, who comes from Larch-
mount. New York, had received
his draft notice. However, he got
a deferment, and fans have ex-
pected to see the pint-size (5* 8")
guard's flashy play on the beisket-
ball courts for another year.
Eddie is taking another trip to
the doctor this week to make sure,
but is pretty well resigned to sit-
ting the season out by now. Uls
stocky build and hard play have
made it hard for him to shake the
shin-splints; they are pretty well
a permaneDt condition.
' Bill WUsoD. left Sorward last
year, also expects to sit out this
season. Bill is having difficulty
with his course, but since he is in
n Premeds. he still has a few sea-
sons to go.

During the twelve months ending July 30, Canada's
regular Armed Forces — Navy, Army and Air Force —
increased from 46,886 to 81,727, or about 75 percent.
The requirement for officers has correspondingly
increased. This requirement is met in three ways:
1 The Canadian Services Colleges at RMC, Kingston
and Koyal Roads, B.C.
2 Short Service or permanent commissions for men
directly from civilian life or from tlie ranks who
have the necessary physical qualifications and
junior matriculation or equivalent;
3 The university training plans.
In the university there is the University Naval Training
Division (P>JTD) for the Royal Canadian Navy, the
Canadian Officers Training Corps (COTC) for the Army,
and the Reserve University Flights (RUF) for the RCAF.
Last year, in twenty-seven Canadian universities and
colleges a total of 3,980 undergraduates were members of
these units. This year, to match the expansion in the Armed
Forces, etill more university men are needed to take these
courses and qualify as regular or reserve oflScers.
[All undergraduates taking advantage of these officer
training facilities receive pay for time spent in training,
including full time employment with the pay of a Second
Lieutenant for tliree or four months each summer. Under-
graduates in their final year who are accepted for the
regular forces can be commissioned with full pay and
allowances of their rank and remain at the university to
complete their year. On obtaining their degree, they will
continue in the service without interruption. The cost of
tuiti(»i^ and books for tlie final year will be paid by
the service.
Today the threat of aggression has led Canada and the
other free nations to build up the strength necessary to
prevent aggression and preserve peace. Modern defence
activities, Dew weapons, require special qualities of leader-
ship and the kind of knowledge and skills which university
men can provide.
You, as an undergraduate, can play your part in
national defence while at the university by adding to your
other qualifications the knowledge and experience needed
in an officer. You can play your part in preserving
freedom by preparing yourself to defend your country
should the need arise.

toon by Hugh Nibloclc
Ihe Vote-Race
Vote as you like, but vote, is the common altruistic cry
of political parties in these days of an imminent election.
The question of "how you like" becomes a very im-
portant one, if you follow these instructions and determine
to vote come hell or high water. For voting is a highly seri-
ous thing. It has been soundly advised that each man should
vote as conscientiously as if his were to be the deciding vote
in the election.
When the voter puts his "X" on the ballot, he has made
s decision. How has he made this decision? He has decided
I will vote this way, because if this party gets into power I
will get the most out of it. Or, he has decided I will vote that
way. because I agree with this party's principles.
The question of profit versus principle is an increasing-
ly difficult one to decide. In the current electioneering, the
campaigning has been more and more like a give-away pro-
gram. Originally, only left-wing parties provided election
platforms that sounded like Christmas gift lists. The idea
appealed immensely to those who for various reasons had
much to wish for. Mr. Jolliffe promised increased pensions
and greater social security. The staid old Conservatives un-
der Mr. Frost clambered onto the bandwagon with increased
old age, war veterans' and widows' pensions. Next, Mr.
Thomson promised a network of hospitals covering Ontario
like a patchwork quilt.
Finally, the question of whether to vote on principle or
on profit tended to drop out of the picture. The question left
to decide is, which party can give me the most ? And this,
we maintain, is not healthy.
A second question that must be decided before the ballot
can be X'ed is: Shall I vote for the man or for the party he
stands for? Voting for the party means, again, voting on
principle. Voting for the man may be something worse than
principle, or it may be something better.
When it is no longer principle by which a party stands
or' falls, then the party with whose forgotten principles we
would once have sympathized no longer has a valid claim on
our vote.
Voting for the man instead of the party is not neces-
sarily a desertion of principle. All parties now show a tinge
of socialism. No matter which of the three main parties gets
into office there will be no vast and vital change in our way
of life. Today, there are few ridings in which it can be said,
"A cow could get into this riding if it were Conservative."
(We use "Conservative" only as an example, with no slur
intended to the Progressive Conservative Party.)
The question becomes, then, shall we vote for the respec-
table but colorless man in the party with whose principles
we agree, or shall we vote for the brilliant man in another
party? With the opposition party playing an essential role
in government, it is just as important to have a good opposi-
tion as it is to have a good government. The better the gov-
ernors, the better the government.
When it comes to deciding which party deserves our
vote, we are left wondering what to do. Shall we vote for
principle or for what we, personally, can get out of it? Shall
jve vote for the man or for the party? Or shall we vote at

Editor, The Varsity,
Your Champua Cat of Thursday, Nov.
15, was excellent. I beg now a few lines
of type in order to defend our little friend
and I trust to shock Messrs. Buchanan
and Baines with some simple language.
This I feel is needed since C. C. was too
subtle for them and because the absurd
naivete of their mushy idealism obvious-
ly will not be pierced by anything less
blunt.
I am not going to waste words explain-
ing the meaning of all the Champus Cat
had to say. Two facts should be sufficient
to bring your correspondents' thinking on
to a realistic and honest plane.
The first fact is historical. There has
never been a time when any two nations
or groups of nations, having turned them-
selves into armed camps, finished the
little race anywhere but on a battlefield.
Furthermore, the widespread opinion to-
day (aided by mediums of mass propa-
ganda like Colliers) that war between
East and West is inevitable will do noth-
ing but hasten the process.
The second fact is one which every stu-
dent on the campus who has an honest
friend in any one of the three services'
training divisions should know.
There are only three reasons why 95%
of our fellow gi'aduates are in these
schemes. All these reasons are practical
and understandable ones. I am not throw-
ing mud at any chap, who, because of a
combination of any one of these reasons
sees fit to spend his summers in uniform.
I have spoken to many of them (good
friends of mine, incidentally) and they
all confirm what I have to say. I do not
agree with their decision but I admire
their honesty in not trying to hide their
real reasons behind a smoke screen of
fine phrases.
These are the three reasons:
(1) The Practical Reason: If there is
another war I'm not going to be a sucker.
I'm going to be ready for a commission
with more money and a better berth than
the other guy who waits. I'm not going
to be ordered around; I'm going
some of the ordering, and if
from a safe place. Even if a war doi
come I'm getting paid now, I have a s, ■
mer job and I'm learning things ah
business, the management of men
modern machines which may come''^
handy. '
It is those who think this way that a
three services' "Career" ads are tiv
to catch. ^\
(2) The Lazy Reason: Hell ! I'm gettb
paid, I get free board and lodging ^ *
clothes. Better than that I don't have
worry about what I'm going to do torno"^
row or what show I'm going to see. The'
tell me what to do and they bring
shows right here. ^
This is the big reason for the "line
least resistance" guys. The ones who wouij
rather drill for an hour than sit dovr
and concentrate on a good book.
(3) The Traditional Reason: This otij
is not important as the others. It lies in
the bosoms of those who come from oli]
stock, whose families have a .tradition (,[
one son going into the army. In thes^
circles the military man has a certain air
It is the honorable, courageous, respectej
career and makes a big hit with the ladie-
It is these types that the O'Keefe'j
"Tradition Counts" ads»stimulate.
You see, gentlemen, the reasons are
very simple and quite obvious.
One last word, Mr. Baines. You ask for
practical suggestions whereby "phil^
sophical considerations" can solve worlj
problems. Not only a suggestion by a prac-
tical step (in no matter how small a way)
was taken at your own college on Mon-
day night when the VCU voted that NF.
CUS should do all in its power to bring
a group of Russian students to Canada,
The door is nearly closed. Let us hope we
got our foot in it in time.
John B. Findlay, lY Vic.
P.S. As for the American Draft and the
COTC, etc. Who won the last war anyway?
Yes, yes, I know, the Americans.

On Principle
Lit Approves Russian Tour
Only One Dissenting Vote
In an almost unanimous vote
last night, the University College
and Literary Athletic Society ap-
proved the principle of Russian
students visiting the Toronto cam-
Jius. The one dissenting vote, 4th
Year President George Brigden,
stood up just as the chairman was
announcing that the. vote was
Unanimous.
The 39-X decision was the result
of a short discussion on the ques-
tion in which no violent opposition
ivas evidenced. The only person
■who spoke against the visit got a
chance to make only two short
speeches in between praises of the
proposed plan.
r"Some people say there is a dan-
ger that in four weeks the Russian
students won't be able to get to
Know the Canadian counterparts,"
remarked Jack Robson, Grad.
"However, this is a longer time
V^an that taken by the Royal Tour,
auring which Princess Elizabeth
and Prince Philip are supposed to
have got to know the whole Cana-
dian people," he added.
Another member suggested that
NFCUS should rush to support
such a plan, "which would give
the Soviet students a chance to
rest from the onerous serfdom of
their life in Russia."
"The fact that the Soviet stu-
dents will probably be hand-picked
propagandists should only make us
more determined to invite them.
Our society must be pretty weak
if it fears 15 or 20 Russians", com-
mented Third-Year President
Nichols.
The motion which was passed
was that NPCUS be requested to
invite a group of 15 to 20 Russian
students to make a three or four
week tour of Canada, the tour to
be held this year if at all possible.
The Lit also passed a motion
suggesting that the short tour be
followed by a one-year exchange

rangemerits for decorations and ex-
penses w-ere referred to the Social
Committee.
Athletic Director Muray Gaziuk
emphasized the necessity of build-
ing up UC spiiit. One of the sugges-
ticns in his report was that weekly
reports of all athletic activities be
written and distributed among all
students. If we beat Trinity on
Tuesday, he said, I hope tp have
the team introduced at tlie Red and
White Nii>ht Wednesday and ar-
rangre a "sort of a pep rally."
Objections were also raised to the
name of the Brading Trophy for
Scotch -Canadian debating. Some
Lit members feared that the name
would onlv give free advertising to
the brewerv. "We might even get a
Sani-Flush Tiophy eventually." re-
marked Bert Bloom, IV UC. This
motion was formerly defeated by
tlie SAC. when it was brought up
by the UC rep at the last Council
meeting.
of Soviet and Canadian students
for purposes of study.
UC was the seventh college or

tour since the question was first
posed to the individual groups.' To
date the vote by faculties is 5-2 in
favor of the visit, with Vic. UC.

eering and Physio and Occupa-

Other bodies will have to have a

Claim LawSays Yes
Though Vote Boss
Turns Thumb Down
students living in residence at the University of Toronto
will be able to vote tomorrow despite a ruling by the chief
electoral officer of Ontario, Major Alec Lewis, to the effect
that they would have no vote.
The four co-cds shown helped
cheer the Senior SPS football
team to a 12-5 victory over Vic-
toria on the back campus yes-
terday afternoon. Tliis was the
second appearance of the girls
this year, but yesterday some

Raise Fees
For Students?
— McMaster
no,milton (CUPi— Pacing a def-
icit of $700 this year on financial
operation, the Students' Council
of McMaster University agreed to
call a meeting of all students in
order to vote on a $1.50 Increase in
student fees retroactive.
A quorum of at least 150 is re-
quired to pass the proposal. The
council's appropriations which
totalled $12,260 is almost $700
greater than actual revenue,
"Either the student fees must
be raised." commented the treas-
urer Doug Holt, "or the council
will have to dip into the revenue
funds. That would be establish
ing a dangerous precedent." he
said.
The increase would be collected
after Christmas, and default of
from writing exams or from
payment would bar the students
graduating.
Whee!
► According to a subsection of part
one of the 1951 Election Act. a per-
son's residence is defined as "th«
place where a single person occupiej
a room or a part of a room or ft
part of a room as a regular lodger
or to which he habituaUy returns,
not having any other permanent
lodging."
Said Kelso Roberts, Conservativa
candidate for St. Patilclfs, lii com-
menting on the regulation. "Stu-
dents have the right to vote wher-
ever they are it they are bona
tide residents in the riding. Onca
the list has been made up and
approved by all concerned, every
person on the list has the right to
vote and it cannot be talcen away"
Continuing he pointed out that a
person can be challenged his right
to vote but if he signs a declara-
tion to the effect that he was la
residence on the 6th of Oct. when
the writ of election was declared
he must be allowed to vote.
"Each student Is expected t«
malie every effort to exercise hU
franchise, that Is, that he go to
the poll tomorrow and cast hi«
vote," was tne unanimous state-
ment of the political clubs on th»
campus, "and that all parties oa
the campus protest any further
disenfranchisement of the stu-
dents."
William Newcombe, the COP can-
didate tor St. Patrlclc-s riding point-
ed out that he situation was deli-
cate. "The best solution as tar as I
am concerned." he said, "would b«
an arrangement such as the one th«
ai-my uses in Korea. There, the sol-
diers vote for the riding they call
home and since the university stu-
dents are seldom at home mora
than a tew weeks in the year, the/
shouid have this special category.*

Weekend
In Capital
For IRC
Tomorrow afternoon a group ot
IRC members will leave Toronto
7ia car and train to spend the
.week-end amid the government
fcuildings in Ottawa. International
Relations Club President Andy Wat-
son described the purpose of the
trip as an attempt "to see how
the machinery governing Canada's
foreign policy works and how her
international relations are gov-
erned."
Scheduled on the trip are visits
to the Privy Council, and the
House of Commons and a tour
through every department of the
Department of External Affairs.
The heads of each of these de-
partments will address the group
an dlt is hoped also that Mr.
Ecott Beid, (Acting Under Sec-
retary of State), Brooke Claxton
and St. Laurent will be able to see
them.
According to Watson about
thirty-five students are planning
to go. and accommodation in Ot-
tawa has been arranged for those
who need it. He also hinted that a
few parties have been planned
Which should fill up any spare
moments over the week-end. A
meeting is being held this after-
noon at 4:00 pin. in Cartwright
Hall, St. Hilda's, to make final
arrangements for the trip.
INTERNAL AFFAIRS
The WaiiantMr in NFCVS
This article, on domestic
achievements of the National
Federation of Canadian Univer-
sity Stndents, is the second in a
series on the national student
body. The third arttole, on more
recent national activities, wiU ap-
pear tomorrow.
In spite of the Impression you
might get on the Toronto cam-
pus, NPCUS does some work
which haam't got anything to do
with Russian student, the Inter-
national Union of Students, the
Western Union of Studaits, or
the Pan-American Union of Stu-
dents.
Strang as it may seem, NFCUS
was originally begun as an organ-
ization to function on the na-
tional, not the international,
level, and it is still doing this.
These national, or domestic, ac-
tivities, are the subject of this
article.
The first thing a student us-
ually asks about the national
body is "What do I get for my
20 cents?" This is a question
which will often embarrass a
NFCUS worker who has only
been active lor a few years and .
doesn't know the background.
Since most of us have come to
university, the organization has
done very little which has affect-
ed our pocketbooks. (It has made
some important investigations,
however, and is at present at
work on som" significant projects
which will be discussed in to-
morrow's article.)
However, NFCUS has done »
number of things which directly
allect the vast majority of stu-
dents. For students traveling
home over Christmas for ex-
ample, it has secured a reduction
in railway fares; they only have
to pay single -fare-and-a-quaxter
for the return journey. And one
Canadian publishing house has
agreed to allow minimum royalty
rates on plays produced by
NFCUS members. ,
Free toition at another imi-
versity is another item on the
national body's program. Under
the regional exchange program,
honor students at one university
can take their third year at a
university in another region, pro-
vided they plan to return to their
own campus for their degree.
During the year away from home,
the student is exempt from,
tuition and student council fees.
There is also an exchange ar-
ranged between Canadian and
American imiversities.
These exchange schemes are
two ways in which NFCUS tries
to encoxnrage an interchange of
ideas between the different parts
of Canada and the United States.
Another is a seminar for students
from all over the country. So tax
this hasn't been successful; one
was planned for two summers
ago, but fell apart at the last
minute due to lack of funds.
However, McGill has been work-
ing since then on plans for a
seminar expected to take place
this coming sununer.
Some things NFCUS has done
have grown up and are on their
own. Prominent amongst these
axe Canadian University Press,
a press association to which all
campus papers belong. NFCUS
also organized the Inter-Univer-
sity Debating Union, to which
every campus but Toronto be-
longs. We may soon belong, it
the final report of last year's
SAC Debates Commissioner is
followed.
These are some of the projects
NFCUS has completed in the
past. Unfortunately the past few
years have not been so full of
solid accomplishments. Just what
has been done, since the inter-
national activities have cast their
shadow over the organization's
original purpose, will be discussed
in the next article.

Trial By Pcrjfuru
ileached amid the confusion of
3,e Mining Building, N. Geneer,
^(iily twenty-four hours away from
rial on charges of attempted mur-
[er. smiled confidently as he pot-
ered away happily with one of
he machines. "They'll never pen
on this," he said. "I'm just
victim of evidential circum-
itances. My lawyer says I have
lothing to fear but the verdict.
le^e dicks don't bother me, I got
ilenly of friends, too." Questioned
the charge, Geneer kept re-
ting that he was using honest
ngineering methods, and people
tiouldn't lose their heads over it.
The AlLVarsity Persecutors an-
ounced that the Crown's case was
pen and shut. We have some
tiaracters as witnesses which will
up the whole case. In a sur-
rise statement he made it known
lat Gloria Mae Swansong would
e present at the trial. Making an
mazing recovery from the grievoxis
rounds suffered in the explosion,
aiss Swansong announced that al-
Lough feeling far from her usual
ouncing self, she would attend
urt to see that justice was
one.
-lel Nircus~Eloop, oen-styied'
loiives expert when interviewed
the Ex-Officers of the Dra-
goon Guards Club, said he hoped
that British justice would be done
but personally he would hang the
cad, by gad. "More monarchy and
less anarchy is what this country
needs," he exclaimed.
Mr. Grciz I. Paulme, waiter at
the Onion House Hotel, stopped
briefly from his work of convey-
ing brew to remark that people
come and people go but this was
the first time that he. personally
had been asked what he had heard
in the course of his years as a
waiter. "Poisonally I think these
blondes are all alike, so one gets
blown-up there's more around so
who's worrying, but I got to get
the party at that table, he is a
big ten cent tipper. Excuse me will
yuhl"
Counsel for the defense indi-
cated yesterday that they would
rely on expert testimony to impute
the whole charge and would call a
few characters for witnesses as
welL Subtle hints suggested that
the expert that would testify might
well be C, N. Starrs. Professor of
Astrology, official Phophet to the
University and a man of some nut
in his profession. Visibly pained at
having his academic privacy in-
vaded, Prof. Starrs said, "My stars,
a body can't even tell whether it's
an earthquare in CQilna or the En-
gineers by the size o' my graphs
these days. In intorpreting undu-
lations nowadays it's not the wiggle
wiggle that counts but the way
that it wiggles," he explained.
Judge E. Lektrode quashed .
motion yesterday to exclude wom-
en from the trial on the ground
that it might be messy. Refusing to
follow the notorious rule of Hurt
House versus Farcity, he stated
that "Middle Age would come all
too soon and that he would oppose
cleavage on the campus."

Nattering Over Nurse
Nets UBC Kidnapping
Vancouver (CUP) — Betty's Date
Clinic — "A night with a nurse".
After a heavy week of studying
prescribe a little TLC (tender lov-
ing care) expertly administered by
a nurse. Phone CE 5142 and ask for
Betty, Here's to higher morale and
lower morals.
This sign, In red paint. Is to be
found on the bulletin board in the
Engineering Building at the Uni-
versity of British Columbia. When
it was reprinted In The Ubyssey
recently with the comment: 'Come,
come sciencemen — have you ac-
tually admitted that you need as-
sistance in attracting the opposite
sex?" the result was a kidnapping
of the author of the column, Ai
Fotheringham, by members of the
UBC Engineering Society.
But It was no small prank. Al
Fotheringham, author of the date
clinic article, entered a formal
complaint against his kidnappers
with the Vancouver police. He said
that his money and coat wer«
stolen from him and that he was
left stranded in the bush near
Vancouver at one o'clock in the
morning.
Fotheringrham said that five en-
gineers spirited him away from a
party he was attending and after
a scuffle deposited him in a car.
Tiiey threatened to put him on the
boat to Victoria with a one-way
ticket and no money.
In their haste to reach theip
destination, Potneringham said, ia
a front page, banner headlined
story, that they attricted a Van-
couver police patrol car, which
gave chase.
The patrol car caught up with,
the kidnappers and Issued a speed-
ing ticket. When he tried to get
free from his captors, by saying
that he was being taken a<^ainst
his will, the kidnappers told police
that It was all a gag.
The car was allowed to proceed
after a flask was confiscated.

Hundreds of everyday uses for Nickel have been
developed by the Nickel industry through a
planned program of research. Today a large share of
Canada's Nickel production is being diverted from
peacetime uses into channels for preparedness. So
the Nickel mine facilities, gready expanded over
the past decade, are again being operated at peak
capacity. There is actually more Nickel now being
delivered by Caijada to the free world than in
any peacetime year.

Miefrigerated Creation
One of the most damiing and
colorful shows ever to hit To-
ronto came last week in the form
of the Ice Capadfes of 1952. With
appeal for old and young alike
this big Ice extravaganza was
able to fill the Maple Leaf Gw-
dens in practicaUy all of its six
performances.
Topped by an ap-to-date "re-
frigerated" version of Cinderella,
the Ice Oapades now seems to
have 'adopted a permanent fbt-
ture in presenting fairy tales <hi
ice, Cinderella is the third Walt
Disney story to be used by the
Capades. With Donna Atwood as
Cinderella, and Bobby Specht
as the Prince, the tale of the
scullery maid who becomes a
princess unfolded in truly quaint
style.
The show this year, again fea-
tured the favorite and popular
"Old Smoothies", Orrin Marlchus
and Irma Thwnas, who have
been with the Ice Capades for
the past ten years. In their own
distinctive way and backed by
soft, sweet music they gracefully
danced around their* frosted
dance floor.
The three comedy routines
wp-ie good. Mimic, Joe Jackson
Jr,, a tramp with a trick-play-
ing bicycle on ice stumbled
through a great performance. The
two Australian boys, the Max-
weUs, did a sensational act of
dead-pan, slow-motion acroba-
tics on skates. Jaclcson and
Lynam then combined to put on
an unusual exhibition of ski-
skating.
Two pert and talented female
performers were also featui-ed in
this year's Capades. Trixie, a
dynamic little blond, does the
unbelievable in balancing and
Juggling while whirling over the
ice. Then there is Patti PhUlippi,
a spectacular drum-majorette,
with a talent for twirling a baton
to the tune of modem jazz.
However there would be no
show without the characteristic
and colorful pageants such as
Gypsy Gold (witii Jeanne Sook
and Ted Roman). Jingle Bells.
Juke Box Jamboree. The State
of the Union, and Minstrel Daze.
The "Teddy Bears' Picnic" pro-
duction, with Its animated
characters, was a disappointment
and seemed to fall below the
average in action and spirit,
A ballet on ice titled "Birds
of a Feather" provided the ex-
pert teamwork of Donna Atwood
and Bob Specht with an exciting,
imaginative, and feather-full
background. Costumed in long,
white, flowing feathers a section
of the Ice Capets (the chorus
line) added a sophisticated touch
to the production. Incidently,
there were 112 of these stunning
Ice-Capets in the whole "52 show.
If the Ice Capades. With its
interesting creations and mar-
velous music, is an indication of
what is to come in ice shows,
then it will certainly be worth-
while seeing the Ice Follies
(coming \v the Gardens on
January 28) and even next year's
Capades when it slides around
again.

balcooj viewpoint
By DAVID PEDDIE
Tonight in the Women's Union the U.O. Playerg Guild are staghig
two very old plays that are seldom seen but are read for some reason
In the thhrd year English Drama course. NOAH'S FLOOD is an old
iMystery Play and was put on as part of religious celebrations. DR.
FAUSTUS is by the famous or infamous Christopher Marlowe who was
the fashionable playwright when Shakespeare came to London. FAUS-
TUS is one of his better plays and should prove to be exciting theatre-
fare. The Players Guild are planning on presenting the Marlowe play
on Hart House stage early in January.
Aside from this show on the Women's Union's tiny stage there
seems to be no other theatrical offering this week. To the chagrin of
all theatre-goers the Royal Alex is remaining empty from the end of
this week when PLEDEaiMAUS leaves until Christmas. Hart House
Theatre will be lit only by work lights next week until the BOY WITH
A CART and A PHOENIX TOO FREQUENT opens on Friday.
One is inclined to give up all hope for a "Canadian Theatre". A
few years ago the New Play Society was presenting a different play
about every three weeks. Since they stole quietly back into the deeper
recesses of the Royal Ontario Museum nothing like them has come
along to equal them in any way.
Our only hope now lies with a new group — The Jupiter Theatre,
who are starting modestly with only four plays this year. Perhaps If
these are successful they will enlarge that number and we will again
have a native Toronto Theatre.
The managers of the Jupiter Theatre are all connected with the
theatre business. John Drainie (chairman), Lome Greene, George
Robertson, and Paul Kligman are radio actors and Len Peterson is a
writer for radio.
The plays they have chosen for production this year all look inter-
esting and are fortunately not concessions to the taste of the siunmer-
theatre audience. They are not terribly high-brow but neither are they
foolish farces that aren't even worth laughing at. GALILEO as a
pageant play about the great scientist, portrayed with modern over-
tones by the modem German playwright Bertold Brecht, This play
will start on Dec, 14th and will run for a week .
The plays to be presented after Christmas are a modem English
^ce, l>alton Trumbo's THE BIGGEST THIEF IN TOWN— Lister
»5^C'air's latest play SOCRATES and CRIME PASSIONEL by Jean
Paul sarte. ^
The unfortunate part of the whole venture is the fact that Tne
Jupiter Theatre wUl be presenting theU- plays on the very tiny Museum
Theatre stage They will find their movements hampered in big shows
like GALILEO and SOC^tATES and that is a handicap, for actors can-
iiot do their best when they are concentrating on not getting in some-
one else's way. Let's hope that they can overcome it to some extent ana
put on good shows.

answer to its technical require-

The one sad note of the recital
was the regrettably poor attend-

better than at the average recital

still be increased. Perhaps the av

Blue Swimmers
Hold Practices
Need New Men
/Blue Saccerites
Defeat Mac 2^0
Now that the football season is
over, the scene shifts to winter
sports. One of these which seems
to have been neglecteti by competi-
tors this year is the intercollegiate
swimming. For the past two weeks,
the Blue swimmers have been hold-
ing practices in the Hart House
pool every Monday and Wednes-
day night, but coach Cress Mc-
Catty has been disappointed by
the lack of an enthusiastic turn-
out.
McCatty hopes to be able to have
two teams, senior and intermediate,
ready By the opening meet which
will be on aJnuary 12 when West-
ern visits the Hart House pool. So
far only about twenty candidates
have turned out for the teams, so
that there are stil] openings for
anyone who has any experience in
water competition. Interested
swimmers are urged to report to
the coach at any of the regular
practices, or leave their name in
the Athletic Office.
Aside from the opening meet, this
year's schedule includes two trips
to Buffalo, and visits from Niagara,
Rochester and Wa3Tie Universities.
The Intercollegiate meet will be
held in Toronto on Feb. 27.
The University of Toronto Inter-
mediate Soccer Team completed
their 1951-52 schedule by trouncing
McMaster two goals to nothing when
they joumed to Hamilton on Friday.
7<he record of the Baby Blues this
season will take a lot out of suc-
cessive teams hoping to equal the
mark established — season com-
pleted without loss of a single game
And with one lone goal against net-
' minder Honmiy Andreson.
Playing with the confidence gain-
ed by a win over the Maurauders
earlier in the week, the Blues
opened the attack. For the opening
ten minutes, the game had the ap-
pearance of an extremely one-sided
dffair. the Blues playing an ex-
tremely better brand of soccer, and
playing with the wind in their
favour. The Macmen tried desper-
ately to hold off the advance of the
threatening Blues" forward line,
and Ken McDonald, in one of his
efforts to clear, handled the ball in
the penalty area.
Howie Ashbourne, who has played
consistently and well all season,
was elected to take the shot. He
had the Mac net-minder beaten with
ft shot that passed through the
right-hand comer of the net. The for McMaster.
Blues were up 1-0, and McMaster
spanted up, apparently determined
to even the score. Despite several
raids, the Blues' defense held their
own. while several shots from the
Marauders' forward line went wild.
The half ended with mid-field play.
The sec4Hid half opened with the
Hamilton team playing like a team
resolved on winning. This, however,
did not last for any length of tiqjie,
as the Blues' forward line was soon
"haunting" the Marauders defense
area. This attack spearheaded by
left-winger Al Logan, paid good
dividends. The Marauders defense
crumbled, and fouled in the penalty
area. Howie Ashbourne tried for his
second but missed by inches as the
ball grazed the right outside of the
goal post.
The Bines kept the pressure on
and Jim Trelivlng scooped the ball
from a goal mouth scramble and
aimed a "blast" directly to the goal-
keeper. The ball rebounded back to
Treliving who made no mistake this
time.
The Maroon and Grey men tried
desperately to get back in the game,
but all to no avail, as the Baby
Blues' defense led by Ted Kersey,
was too much tor them .Ed Bhatty
turned in a stellar performance,
while Ken McDonald and the Jones
twins — Pete and Mike played well

Fighting Engineer Squads
Hands Scarlet and Gold
First Defeat of Season
By BRUCE NORTH
The fighting Skulemen retained a little of their dignity-
yesterday afternon on the back campus as they defeated the
previously unbeaten Victoria squad 12-5. Although the game
meant nothing as far as final standings or playoff positions
are concerned, the Engineers were obviously out for blood
and as a result there were several near fights.
There were remark^ly few fum-
bles for such a cold day. Victoria
had a few regulars missing from the
lineup but they didnt lie down,
and fought the Skulemen every Inch
of the way,
Sorprtsingly enough the Tic boys
scored their major via the forward
pass. Quarterback Ijorne Lodge fad-
ed back on his own 32 and heaved
a long one that was deflected into
the eager arms of Art Williams by
a red faced Skuleman. Lodge then
called a heady friay, taking advan-
tage of John Bond's w«ll known
end runs. Bond took the pitchout
as usual but instead of running with
it, he tossed the ball to George
Hevenor over the goal line for a
touchdown. Four Skule linemen
broke through and blocked the at-
tempted convert.
Gotcha !
The Engineers came out for the
second half like a Shanghai riot
squad. Ella and Snider carried right
down to the Vic one yard line on a
series of end runs and off-tackle
smashes. Snider took the ball and
went off tackle again for the first
Skule major. Prendergast missed
the convert.
Early In ttie -fourth qnafter Don.
Kerr made a circus catch of Pren-
dei^ast's pass from the Vic 32 and
carried to the 10. But Godson stop-
ped Ella on the ZKxt play and
Goodfellow grounded a pass over
the goal line. Prendergast stepped
back and hoofed it over the dead
ball line for a single point.
Late in the fourth quarter came
the play that caused the hey rube,
Geoi^e Hevenor of Vic was kick-
ing from his own ll-yard line when
Hotchklss broke through and block-
ed the ball wl^ his nose. It bound-
ed toward the sid^slii>es but Mc-
pherson of Skule kicked it over the
goal line and went In after it. He
managed to reach the hall and the
second he touched it the referee
tooted his whistle. However im-
mediately aiterwards -he rolled
away from the baU and Wooton of
Victoria fell on it. The referee toot-

The Intramural hockey schedule got underway at the Arena on Mon-
day ot this week and there are now three or fotur games each day.
There arc few spectators, bnt these are treated to good ^ames free of
charge. The above picture Is from yeaterda};*8 St. Miie's C-Meds IV
tilt, which the latter won 4-1.
The Intramural hockey schedule
continued yesterday with three
games on tap. In the opener St.
Mike's "C" were defeated by Meds
IV, 4-1. Led by Jones with two tal-
lies, the Medmien took a 2-0 lead
in the first frame and coasted in.
Venis and Coulas got singles for
the winners while Millar was the
marksman for the Irish.
St. Mike's "B" made out a little
better than their big brothers as
they edged SPS IV 7-6 in a hard
fought battle. Duffy was top scorer
turning in a hat trick for the
Mikemen. Teammate Hunt added
two more while Jerome and Keen-
an added one apiece. For the
Skulemen, Elorado and McTavish
scored twice with Hayman and
Copper netting singles.
In the fin:il hockey tilt, Law de-
feated Forestry "B". 3-2. The Law-
yers took a 2-1 lead in the initial
stanza and thLs was too much for
the Woodsmen. Stevenson was the
sparkplug ci the winners as he
netted two, and teammate Long
added one. For the losers, Beatty
and Tomkins each scored once.
There was only one game sched-
uled on tiie lacrosse scene, and in
this Trinity "A" edged Meds n
S-4. After a scoreless first quarter,
each team scored once in an even
second stanza. TrUilty took a one
goal lead in the third and that
was the game. Brlant of the win-

ners and Sproul of Meds each
scored twice. Maybee, MacMillan
and Williams were the other Trin-
ity marksmen and Hobson and
Dawson scored once each for the
Medsmen.
There were two soccer games
played at noon hour yesterday,
and both ended up in a tie. UC
fought to a l-I draw with Sr. Vic.
Neither team scored in the first
half and play was even in the
second when both sides tallied
once. Dalnoki was the Redmen
scorer while Ashburn netted lor'
Vic.
In the other soccer contest, Jr.
SPS and Emmanuel played to a
2-2 tie, as each team scored once
hi each half. Wareham and Found
were the Engineers' marksmen
whUe Snowden and Logan tallied
for Vic.
On the volleyball floor, Vic HI
had little trouble as they trounced
St. Mike's "D" 15-3 and 15-4 in
the lunch time encounter. Sr. UC
also took two straight as they
downed Sr. Vic 15-7 and 15-2, Meds
I year took the opener from For-
estry 15-G. but the Woodsmen
came back to take the next two
15-5 and 15-13.
Meds II year came out on the
right end of a 15-4, 16-8 score as
they beat Pharmacy, while SPS

ed again. The ot>vlous question that
arose was: whose ball was it? The
ref ruled in favor of Sfcule and
awarded them in TTD.
Victoria londly proclaimed the
fact that they did not agree witli
the referee's ruling. In, fact th^
even questioned the official's ances-
tx7! In the meantime the Engineers
were not idle. Pretty soon there was
a shoving bee taking place in the
midst of a group of players. How-
ever things finally cooled down and
Prendergast kidced a questionable
convert.
Philp, Pearson, Murray and Webb
all played well on defence for Vic-
toria. Vernon and Lewis were also
good for Skue.

is the Society's weekend project
for the farm itself.
There was a tremendous feeling
of energy created by the students
on the weekend. They did every-
thing—standing out in the cold for
hours, sitting on stone fences, cut-
ting out paper dolls for animation.
Nothing stopped the work. Fuses
blew out, fingers were scratched
by butcher knives, film was lost
and found a^ain. old scripts were
thrown out and others improvised
on the spur of an imaginative mo-
ment. And when midnight came,
everyone was too exhilerated to

again this Sunday, with a concert
by the well-known pianist, Bela

rival in Canada from Hundary a
few years ago. Boszormenyi-Nagi
has given many recitals in this
city, and has also made appear-
ances as soloist with the Toron-

The program on Sunday will con-
sist exclusively of sonatas by

one of the earliest English miracle
plays. Noah's Flood, will be pre-
sented toniglU by the UC Players'
Guild. The performance will begin
"exactly'" at eight o'clock at the
Women's Union.
The bill is the most ambitious of
the Guild's first term productions,
and is especially designed to demon-
stmte the technical and di"amatic
adviances made in the English thea-
tre between the relatively primitive
Noah and th6 considerably later
Faustus. Professor Knox, professor
in Uie Department o£ English at

One of America's most prolifiU
writers has never received a cent ia
royalties. His rc-aders number in
the millions but lie owns neither a
bank account nor an automobile.
He is Doiiiel A. Lord, a Jesmt priest
from St. Liouis, Mo. Smiday night
he arrived in Toronto from an ex-
tended lecture tour in tiie States.
He will spend tliis coming week
putting the finishing touches on his
new play written in honour of the
Centenary Year of the Sisters t-f St,
Joseph, it will open the first part
of next week.
The most remarkable fact about
60-year-old Father Lord is llie in-
credible volume of best-selling
vror^ss he produces. In the past 20
years he has written over 200 boofc-
lels, some 25 plays, 50 musical com-
positions, a dozen or more books,
three murder mysteries and sowes
of children's story books.
In 1949 the lametl Martyrs' Shrina
Pageant made the whole of Canada
sit up and take notice. Father Lord
wrote the music, the dialogue, the
explanatory reading and directed
the whole show. This summer in
Detroit he staged an elaiwrate show
called "City of freedom". It waa
sponsored by tlie University of De-
troit and in addition to tiie faculty
and student haciang the city sup-
IJorted it. This latter pageant earn-
ed him t4ie reputation of being
' iiie first mail to give Detroit a
eoul,"
Altihoueh all tJils seems a full-
time job, it i£ only a segment of
Father Lord's gargantuan wort
scliedule. He is National Director of
two lay societies and editor of two
widely -circulated magazines. In
addition, he writes a full weekly,
column wliich is syndicated in
Catholic newsipapers throughout the
U£_A. and Canada and contributes
a daily script to a 15-nunute radio
program. Periodically he goes to
Hollywood to advise on films and a
numher of years ago he was asked
by tlie movie-makers to draw up a
morality code under which the
Johnson Office (formerly Hays),
operates. H'm tonslant travels on
lectaire tours caused a colleague to
comment: "Nobody rides on trains

Freedom, Please
Censorship of opinion and freedom of expression have,
in our opinion, always been incompatible. Yet, the Parlia-
mentary Committee on Radio seems to be considering some
sort of broadcasting restrictions. ^
The CBC policy in the past acording to its Chairman,
A. Davidson Dunton, has been "to try to see that all view-
points which a reasonable number of Canadians wish to hear
have an opportunity on the air". And this is quite right.
Any attempt by the CBC to decide which opinion was good
and which was bad would be a form of totalitarianism.
For that reason, Mr. Dunton suggested that Parliament,
if it seems necessary, lay down a clear ruling as to what
opinions may not go on the air. But surely a policy of censor-
ship, which would be totalitarian coming from the CBC,
■would be a great stride towards dictatorship on the part
of Parliament.
Take Hoyle's lectures as an example of what some
people think ought to be censored. As a scientist, he gave a
series of lectures on cosmology, entitled "The Nature of
the Universe".
Yet, a letter to the editor, printed on this page, "Facts
for CBC" states that Christianity the revealed word of God
Almighty is not to be questioned because it is a certainty.
Hoyle is guilty of blasphemy if his opinions are contrary
to Christianity. The author, Mr. Gonzales, does not define
Christianity nor explain how it is to be interpreted.
While he states that products of the human mind are
subject to disputation, science in its astronomical and theo-
retical aspects would seem to be excluded from discussion. ■
Possibly Mr. Gonzalez did not hear that broadcast in which
Hoyie explicitly stated that the immaterial and spiritual
woi'Id was out of the range of scientific knowledge. That the
material world was the field for scientific exploration. None-
theless, he. would ban Hoyle.
Dr. B. K. Sandwell. in this week's issue of "Saturday
Night" has continued his tirade against the CBC. On quite
different grounds than Mr. Gonzales ht comes to the same
conclusion — censorship. For him "the questions of whether
there is a Creator and whether the life qjf the individual
ceases after death are not scientific questions; these are not
matters of knowledge, they are matters of faith". Very
much the same things as Hoyle said, but Sandwell sides
with censorship!
In the case of both Sandwell and Gonzalez, we are con-
fronted with a desire to limit free speech without quite know-
ing how. While it is very easy to mak^ laws saying that
atheism should be banned from radio networks, the inter- '
pretation would be next to impossible. Hoyle speaking about
science and Russell speaking as a philosopher on "Living in
an Atomic Age" were surely not attacking religion.
Sensitive souls can see signs of irreligion in almost
everything — if they put their minds to it. Catholics would
ban Protestants for ther blasphemy and vice versa — if they
were allowed to.
But more than the impracticability of censorship laws,
is their fundamental opposition to our belief in the right of
important views to be heard. Democratic societies do not
shield their members from opinions, rather they expose new
ideas for consideration. That is, if democracy is democracy.
Trial Or Error ?
This year The Varsity intends to continue one of its best
tradit ions, that of publishing a Literary Issue. We say
"intends" because, of course, whether this w-ill be possible
or not depends on the quality of the material submitted.
There are a lot of cynics around the university who
claim that the only creative work university students are
capable of is confined to decorative inscriptions painted on
college walls. Even with such a wide canvas, we hope that
there are some whose abilities rise above this fly-by-night
kind of exhibitionism.
Then there are the quantitative optimists who, at the
slightest provocation, shriek "Surely in a university of
11,000 there must be someone who can write". On our part.
We reject such pseudo theories of probability.
Rather, we are offering an opportunity for the creative
instincts of this university to manifest themselves. The
Varsity gives prizes for the best entries in .serious verse,
light verse, short stories, e.ssays (topic to be decided by the
writer) and photographs. Here, then, is one of a limited
number of places in the university (and elsewhere for that
matter) where original work can be published. Even better,
a circulation of 11,000 is ensured.
The deadline for all material is January 10.- The days
of grace until then will give the undergraduate a chance to
show his creative instincts.
We believe in trial by jury. We believe in the right of
the accused to defend himself. And in this case, the defence
of the undergraduate will consist of a manuscript, typewrit-
ten at 60 spaces on one side of the paper, submited to The
Varsity editorial office.
Judges of the cultural state of the university will be
announced later.
OUR READERS WRITE
Facts F»r CBC
Editor, The Varsity:
Your CBC editorial was a masterpiece of wishy-
washy muddle-headedntss for you completely miss-
ed the point and went on ranting for a whole wide
column on "Differences of Opinion" and "all points
of view" and "narrowness" or some such.
The real point is what is Cliristianity and what
does it claim to be? It seems to have slipped your
mind altogether that Christianity does not claim,
has never claimed and will never claim to be hum-
an opinion. This Is fundamental if you don't mind.
Quite fundamental. Christianity claims to be the
revealed word of God Almighty himself and the
word of Almighty God is not subject to review or
disputation by Lord Russell, Pope Pius, or the
Moderator of the United Church.
Argue if you wUl about the claim of Christianity
to be divine but don't argue that Christians should
submit to entering what they consider to be the
opinions of the Almighty God on equal terms in a
free for all CBC quiz show with the opinions of
Lord Russell. Lord Russell is undoubtedly a first
class brain and has come on fairly well on his
own steam in trying to find a solution to the whys
and wherefores of existence but I am not willing:,
and no christian is wiUing. to grant that Lord
Russell's steam is probably equivalent to the
steam of Our Lord.
What you are asking is either the Christian be
dishonest and pretend that God and Lord Russell
be dishonest and that both are possibly equally
liable to error, which is absurd or that Christians
be not reaJly Christians at all but quite sceptical
and "open-minded" and ready to be Mohammedans
or Shintoists tomorrow and perhaps Buddhists the
day after.
It seems to be extraordinarily difficult to get
across to non- Christians the fact that we believe
in Christianity and that belief is not to be subject
to revision. Even the word "belief" seems to carry
in this age some sort of qualification implying un-
certainty. But we are not uncertain .
fj will grant you that politics, philosophy, artistic
criticism and other products of the human mind
are subject and always will be subject, as far as
we can foresee, to disputation and argument and
the possibility of revision remains as new theories
arise and old ones find themselves challenged.
Sui'ely if there is a God and He is the ^
Christianity then Christianity is not subje^t^'^'
opinion of Mr. Hoyle? Not only under th ^
cumstances is it not subject, but the - ■
Mr. Hoyle,
olasphemy which is a serious business, liJiQ^^ ,
only more so. '^^'^
The argument then is: is Christianity
We who are Christians know it is
expected to grant that it is subject to
opinion. Surely then we cannot be
permit om* taxes to be used to dlssemln!
phemy?-
The Christian position will, I suppose, be
narrowminded by unthinking people, but sur^
is not narrowminded to assert fact and deny i
controversy is either intelhgent or useful?
calls anyone naiTOwminded if they assert t
Napoleon lived between 1750 and 1850 and
circa 875. No one says that it is bigoted to jjj
in uncompromising terms that Convocation Hy]
nearer to Simcoe Hall than to Trinity ColiJ
What is more certain than that which God sj
is the Author of Truth has declared to be so?
You know there are an enormous number j
people whose knowledge of Christianity has n
kept pace with the development of their inteUe
in other fields but has been allowed to stagmjt]
at the 7 or 8-year-old jevel (which is the lasttiiL.
they were dragged to Sunday School). Prom tit
to time they have fortified this stagnated chiiii^
knowledge with the superstitions of the irreligio^^
pretending to be Orthodox Christianity arwi i-
adults, they emerge with a picture of Christlaniir
that is, to say the least, ludicrous. Then they t
around and make absurd pronouncemenCr a
the Christian religion and expect Christians to
calmly by and permit their blasphemies, albeit
norant blasphemies, to be aired from the positl
of eminence that they have attained in ol
fields. Furthermore they expect Christians to
them for it!
Christianity matters, you know. It is not o
an abstruse amusing subject for discussion at
time like the latest movie or the Conductor o[
Concei-ts Symphoniques.

Advice To Vic Tads
Editor, The Varsity:
A word of advice to eight pa-
triotic Victorians, unable to
sleep nights due to the plight of
an "utterly defamed" Varsity — .
back to your teething rings!
I notice that you deplore a
pitiable decline in the quality of
campus reporting; gone are the
old days, the happy times, the
hours when you and I were young
—who's kidding whom? I no-
tice that six of you have been
reading The Varsity for all of
two and a half terms, while the
other two have all of two months
of serious perusal to their cred-
it. What do you know about the
"light, humoi'ous satire of prev-
ious years"? What Is your cri-
terion of shedding tears for a
Varsity decline, the "Canadian
High News" or the "Bobbsey
Twins"? Come off it, kiddies;
you haven't the slightest idea
about the "good old days" at
Varsity so why waste your
breath?
You are anxious about the in-
crease in news reporting in
The Varsity. I have always
thought that news was customary
in a newspaper. The news
doesn't Interest us you say; we
want to hear about Victoria,
not about the nasty old Russians.
I hope that you don't wish one
day that you had heard more
about Russia in The Varsity, and
less in a set of indoctrination
lectures. Wake up lads, youth
means business; Don't you
Time?
Finally, you dear little
you resent the biased atti
of The Varsity to the dear
Vic Assembly, not to those
derful campus dramatic effo
Has it ever occurred to you
your own grounds (the infal
ity of the "average undergra
ate"), that the coverage of ti
events might be adequate?
it ever dawned on you, dear
dren, that there are those

ish prating of the VCU? Ha
you ever thought, when a cr.i

Engineers, Nursing, P&OT
All Approve Russian Visits
Engineering, Physical' and Occupational Therapy, and Nursing have voted in favor of
the principle of a visit of Russian students to Canadiaji Universities. All three stated a
preference for an exchange of student years rather than short term visits
Rui
By a narrow margin, the Engineers supported the principle that
Russian students should be invited to visit Canadian universities In an
open meeting held yesterday afternon by the EngUieerlng Society The
final vote was 39 to 33 in favor of the principle. All 39 Skulemen who
voted for the visit also felt that the National Federation of Canadian
University Students should organize the exchange.
On the question of what form the visit to Canada should take,
the engineers showed a preference for a student exchange over an
academic year. They also felt that there should be a visit of Russian
students to Canada even it a return visit was not possible.
Physical and Occupational Therapy undergrads. by a vole of 64 to 7
ratified the Inviting of 20 Russian students to Canada. The question
of whether this Invitation should be extended this school year or next
was resolved by a vote of 44-7 in favour of next year.
Another motion that a certain number of Russian students be Invited
to the Toronto campus On an exchange plan of one year was moved by
Denlse Jonston and ratified 59-8.
Molly Bark, n POT, questioned whether a hand-picked delegation
would gain anything from the trlO, adding that "The university students
are at a very impressionable age, and as the guests are trained to preach
commumsm, it is likely that we wiU fall for it." Sue Stansbury stated
that this didn't matter and no harm wiU come to us as there at« already
so many (communist) spies hi the country.
SAC Rep, Shirley Bratl, felt that if we don't convince the Russians
of our way of lite la point brought out by External Affairs ren Joan
Pearson) we may at least convince ourselves . . . which is more
Important.
The Nursing undergraduate association voted on Tuesday night in
favor of the principle of the Russian visit. A motion was also passed
stating that the University of Toronto should undertake to bring
Russian students to this campus even it NPCUS is unwUlUig to handle
the exchange.

The University of Saskatchewan
unanimously defeated the principle
of Soviet students visiting Canada
at a meeting of its student council
last week.
The Council voted 23-0 in support
of the motion that "the Students
Representative Council of the Uni-
versity of Saskatchewan ratifies
the KFCUS decision not to invite
a group of Russian students to vis-
it Canada on an exchange basis at
the present time."
The only opponent of the motion
was Nick Chwelos. leader of the

Hart House Art
Skeletonsi And Maeabre Scenes
There is on display at Hart
House art galleries a series of
paintings by a young Canadian
artist which he hopes that many
people will not like. Most of the
paintings show skeletons in ihaca-
bre scenes.
A positive, a^sressive statement
on a situation existing in society
now. is the way Aba Bayefsky de-
scribed this series or paintings
called "recruiting posters."
An an official war artist witli the
RCAP he went to Belsen Concentra-
tion Camp where he was more
moved than he said he had ever
been before or since. He felt at
that time that while tlft uniform
and glamor were nice, the war and
its after-effects, as shown by Bel-
sen were not.
After the war he returned to
Europe where he painted a series
of pictures^ in the Italian D.P.
Camps.-
Bayefsky feels that this period

still life and "tilings that would ^ controversy resulting from these
paintings. "All paintings
look nice above a mantel piece."
Now he felt that he must make a
conscious effort to make a stand
as an artist and as a human being.
The result was the first painting
in bis recruiting poster series. "See
the World" has a skeleton stand-
ing in a scene which the artist de-
scribed as meaning "DPs, despair,
poverty and hunger." Another
painting is entitled "The Officers'
Mess." containing two skeletons
nonchalantly talking. Bayefsky
said about this painting tliat it
represented two unconcerned as-
pects of destruction— "there are \
an awful lot of foolish minds wear-
ing an officer's cap." By this he
explained that he was not saying
that all officers are bad and de-
structive I he was a former of-
ficer in the RCAP). but tJiat there

to think about the direction he : is going on in the world today,

Bayefsky
As for the title of the series "Re-
cruiting Posters", Bayefsky said
that he worked on the premise
that the posters are ridiculous^
containing such falsehoods as the
services being a wonderful life. Ha
compared this to feeding the tur-
key until it is plump and thea
chopping off his neck.
n*Ti House Art Gallery was de-
i>cribed by the ai-tist as being one
of the few. if not the only, gallery
in Toronto where pictures can b*
shown without considering th«
sales percentage. Some of the
other painters- in the city, he said,
were barred from going into this
realm although they were as anti-
war as he is. He felt that art and
oneself cannot be divorced.
Now Bayefsky is making a deci-
sion whether he has expressed iiim-
seU as he intended the paintings to
be. This is the first time that the
paintings have been hung together
as a series since Bayefsky finish-
ed the last of his "Recruiting Pos-
ters." The group will be on dis-
play until Nov. 25 in Hart House

This .rticle, U.e third in a »° J^^J-^'^^f
dian Federation of Canadian University Students, is on i e
«f5, taing done by the loeal NFCUS committees.
KFCUS. as a national organiza-
tion still depends almost exclu-
Eiveiy on the work of the local
committees at the individual unl-
versiUes. This year a permanent
secretariat was set up. but the one
member on its stall has his hands
lull with the correspondence that
tuch a wide-spread body necessi-
tates. Tlieretore when NFCUS de-
cides it wants to carry out- a pro-
ject, it assigns it to a member uni-
versity.
At its annual conference in Lon-
don, last September. NFCUS hand-
ed out a number o< these assign-
ments, or mandates, to its mem-
ber universities. Toronto received
three, as the biggest member; oth-
ers received one or two.
Prominent among the Toronto
mandates is the international Ac-
tivities Commission, which is in
charge ol all the relations of the
Canadian national student body
with' students in other countries.
This is headed by SAC President
6yd Wax; the other members of
the Commission attend the Uni-
versities of Manitoba and New
Brunswick.
Another project, which Toronto
Is working on, but which has not
of the TAC, is a university infor-
mation booklet tor the use of high
school students. , , ™.
This brief wUl Include informa-
tion on living conditions, general
tuition and text costs, and the op-
portuniUes for bursaries and
kholarships at aU universiUes and
colleges In Ontario. The project ib
beini restricted to this province
for the time being, until it. proves
successful.
The »B-lmporlant matter of
university fees is being hivestigated
under another mandate to tne
OniversitJ of British Cohimbia.
Fruits of the western investigation
are ab-eady appearing on the
Toronto campus, as an SAC-spon-
sored investigation into the need
tor last summer's fee rise goes
under way.
And to save the student more
money. NFCUS is trying to get the
eiemption of university fees from
the income tax of both him and
his parents, a power that lies with-
in the discretionary powers of the
Finance Minister exclusively. It is
also trying to get students exemp-
tion from unemployment insurance.
For student actors. McMaster Is

on member campl. Such an ar-
rangement has already been work-
ed out with one Canadian publish-
ing house: now NFCUS hopes to
extend it to others.
The national office is taking
over a few projects which will not
stand a great deal of investiga-
tion. Among these is a travel
bureau service. where students
travelling abroad can boot passage
at a reduced rate. The national of-
fice will also act as a clearing house
lor information on the student
coimcil of the various Canadian
universities; their council set-up.
handbooks, financial and athletic
positions, and other relative Items.
These are only some of the pro-
jects Canada's national student
body is working on. However,
NFCUS has had a number of other
projects in the past, which never
have seemed to come into prac-
tice. A mandate is only good as its
implementation. What 'effect the
present mandates will have de-
pends largely on the support they
receive from the student body. But
support only comes with . informa-
tion. Maybe what NFCUS needs
is a good project on publicity.

An opposition from engineering
was defeated tti a debate at St.
Joseph's CoUege last night on the
resolution that "A healthy attitude
towards temperance is achieved
through- moderation and not
through total abstinenie." The two
engineers w«re supporting total
abstinence.
The first speaker for the opposi-
tion, Geoffery Hyde. IV SPS, asked
the house if anyone there had
ever had one-half a love, affair. He
said that there was no such thing.
Moderation he felt involved some
of cverythhig. The question can-
not be discussed regarding eating
or breathing- He said that it was
s qntstion of degree and of time.
He posed the questions of whether
drinking was moderate, was any
Und of drinking moderate, and
was It moderate in a young child
of 21 years.
Hyde felt that moderation is
open to abuse, contending that
the name itself is abused. He said
that abstinence is personal, on a
personal level and is the embodi-
ment of temperance itself.
Modeiste drink was described by
Mary Grieve, first speaker for the
government as a good thing, smce
by its utility and pleasure it does
an immense deal of good. She
claimed that a smaU quantity
produced only a quickening in the
circulation and ft temporal* ^ ■

SHARE Domation
"SHARE (Student Help tor Asian Heliet and Education), the cam-
paign planned by ISS this vear. will be directed toward helping In-
donesia." said President Jean Sheppard at the Physical and Occupa-
tional Therapy Undergrad meeting last night.
or the 150 million population, only ten thousand are students. Miss
Sheppard added, describing the povertj- of the country. "While our
contributions of food, clolliing, medical suppUes and books wiU not be a
cure, they will be a help in our international relations," she said.
"The group directing SHARE have asked us not to use SHAKE for
advertising purposes in money raising schemes." Miss Sheppard went
on to say. explauiing that the emphasis in raising the $11,000 campus
objective would be on personal donation, not on benefit performances
sponsored under that name.
A motion was passed by the undergrad association to add 50 cents
to tlie price of the At-Home tickets and supply each escort with a
boutonnicre. The At-Home is to be held during the week of the SHARE
campaign, the week of January 15.
When questioned from the floor as to the validity of this compul-
lory donation. Miss Sheppard stated that them otion has been passed
by the undergraduates and that she considered the 12 members present
a fair representation of the 256 students enroBed in the physical and
occupational therapy. "The others should come to the meeUngs.'

By PHILIP M.
Silence falls over the crowded classroom as the
Head of the Department enters. He mounts the
podium. The nutter of note-paper is heard and
the Professor begins to speak. Suddenly a frown
crosses his face, and with a wild cry he inverts
the customary jug of ice-water over his head,
screams a dismissal to the class, and pads eut
of the room on his hands. Should this occur in
your class some morning don't be perplexed-
it's probably only the result of a post-hypnotic
suggestion given to the Professor after the Psuedo-
Scientific Society Supper the previous evenmg.
such potential action-patterns are easily im-
planted in the mind of a suggestible person when
in a deep state of hypnosis. This condiUon with
all its phenomena may be explained by assum-
ing the exist(3nce of a basic division of the mind
into two parts — conscious and subconscious —
each with its own peculiar characteristics. In such
a state, when the conscious mind (which controls,
decides, and inhibits) has been lulled to sleep we
can directly contact the subconscious, which is
highly suggestible and which has pigeon-holed
every impression and memory ever experienced.
This fanciful theory may have little basis in
fact, but serves very well to explain what is
observed,
Thus a hypnotised girl of twenty-one will glibly
rattle off what she ate for breakfast on the morn-
ing of her fifth birthday and the da;- of the
week on which it fell. When this latter point has
been checked (for me a laborious procedure!) sh'e
wUl be found to be right. To my mind this indi-
cates the validity of her other remarks.
Not everyone is capable of being induced into
this state of hypnosis; there are two prerequisites:
wUlingness and susceptibility. In by own ex-
perience The number of people capable of being
hypnotized is small, and no unwilling person can
ever be forced into this condition of hyper-
suggestibihty.
The question is often asked whether a person
under hypnosis will perform acts contrary to their
everyday moral judgement. The answer can be
yes, depending upon the interpretation of the
actions in question. Thus one may say that such
immoral actions were desired subconsciously but
supressed by. the conscious mind and under hyp-
nosis this inhibition is removed. Another question
AbDERRIAN _ .
concerns the likelihood of not being able to awakea
a person' from the hjnotic trance. This difficulty
rarely arises, but should it occur, the subject win
gradually pass into normal slumber from w^iich he
will naturally wake up in a few hours. I
As is weU known a hypnotized person will do i
almost anything suggested to him. Further, he will
easily recall anything wliich he has even known
or done in the past. These phenomena are in-
teresting enough, but much more fascinatmg are
'the results of suggestions gaven to the hypnotised
st^ject for execution after he has been awakened.
For example. I, have suggested that a person on
awakening wUI not apprehend the presence of a
particular friend "because the friend has left the
room for ten minutes". When he wote up be
asked for his friend twho was standing before
him) and was content with the exiplanation that
his chum had left. No amount of jumping up and
down, talkUig, tugging at his clothes, poking or
calling made the slightest impression. After exact y
ten minutes had elapsed the subject was suddenly
aware of his friend and asked where he had been.
The subject was told what had occurred and was
as amazed as his friend had been frightened. Aji-
other post-hypnotic suggestion is to tell the hyp-
notized subject that, at any time in the future I
after he wakes up, three snaps of one's finger m I
front of his face will immediately cause him to go I
to the nearest chair and foil into the deep trance I
in which he presently finds liimself. This works I
beautifully and is indeed impressive, but for better I
01- worse, it has never been effective more tha^ I
one day. After that time the signal is ignored I
and questioned. . I
An important pqiut seems to be the depth oi I
the hypnotic state achieved by the subject. The!
above effects will occur only if the subject, bj|
vii-tue of his own suggestibility or the skill of '
operator, has been adequately relieved of his con^
scious mind. If distractions intervene, or it
subject is not particularly susceptible, only a r^'^'
tively light state of hypnosis can be achieved
The subject then will be only slightly amendable
to the will of the operator.
Anyone may successfully hypnotise providuiK^
that he holds the confidence of the subject, thj^
he perfect a well-modulated and phythmic P^^^^
of speech and that he practise iinder quiet ai»
relaxed conditions. Try it yourself!

Poge Three
No Overemphasis On Studies
Victoria, UC Debaters Decide
•Although the Government asserted that book-
worms may end up their life in a mental hos-
pital, the resolution before the Victoria CoUege
Debatmg l^liament, -Resolved that Academic
work is overemphasized on this campus", was de-
feated hy a vote of 18 to 10 yesterday afternoon.
Speakers from University College formed the
Opposition.
Ken Jarvis, IV UC, second speaker of the Op-
position pointed out that debating is an academic
intellectual activity and no matter who won the
debate, the Government, by debating at all, proved
the worth of academic activity.
He deplored the hedonistic attitude displayed
by the Government in its advocating credits for
extracurricular activity. We must be capable, he
added, if we are to help other people. We become
capable through assimilating Icnowlcdge we gain in
university- and transforming it into wisdom, he
said.
Jarvis continued, "At university we learn how
to apply reason. We have the choice of being
reasonable and free, or unreas(^able and bonded.*
Don Armstrong, ii Vic, Leader of the Govern-
ment, said the education we receive should equip
us mentally, socially and physically. He said that
cramming for examinations will never t«ach us
how fco get along with people. Social education
that IS learned on the campus is more worthwhile
than striving for academic prowess he continued
Armstrong described the University of Toronto as
a community of citiyms who have personaUties
to develop.
Cynthia Olsen. n UC. spoke for the Opposition.
She said that we come to university for scholarly
apphcation. It is at university that we take our
first steps into the world, she added.
Dave Jackson, II Vic, speaking for the Govern-
ment, said that stressing abstract subjects as a
university must necessarUy do, leaves the student
out of step- with society.
Dave Rose. IV UC. advocated an internal revo-
lution and ttie overthrow of the formal structure
of lectures and professors. He felt that a student
should rather use his own discretion and judg-
ment m the selection of texts which he wished to
read.

A Reply
CdUor, The Varsity:
Contrary to your iinwarraiited
assumption, I haven't the slightest
objection to Mr. Hoyle as a physi-
cist which is what I think he is
qualified to be, I have no desire
to "ban Hoyle"— if he sticks to
pliysics or astronomy, theory or
practice, continuous creation of
matter or what have you.
I have DO objection to hearing
Dr. Mai-itain or Dr. Niebuhr on
the OBC talking about theology.
I am, however, shocked at the
irresponsibility of the CBC in
hiring Mi". Hoyle to talk about
theology, which is what he did in
fact do, I grant you that most of
hl.s talks dealt with scientific mat-
ters but he did talk about the-
ology and he has absolutely no
training whatever to do so. If by
censorship you mean making sure
that people are qualified to talk
about the matters that they are
being paid to talk" about — and
paid by us, yes, I am In Tavour of
censorship.

Editor. The Varsity;
Many people have deplored the
lack of humor on the campus these
past years. The Ghampus Cat
just has not been up to stajidard
we had come to expect. The edi-
tors, it seems, have been trying
hard to give humor a Uft. Last
week we ha4 an article about of-
ficer training and in Tuesday's
Varsity, there was the subtlely
humorous article on "Facts abo\it
the CBC". If you 'don't mind,
please allow us to congratulate
Mr, Gonzales on this fine exam-
ple of tongue-in-cheek writing.
But take care! Remember what
happened to the Manitoban's
article on a certain east-coast
college. Some students may think
Mr. Gonzales is serious. The mod-
ern student is notorious for let-
ting people stuff all sorts of
trash down his throat without

in the teachings of the Bible?
Must I point out that the Bible
contradicts itself, especially be-
tween the Old and New Testa-
ments? If we are to accept the
New Testament as accurate and
true must we not also admit that
parts of the Old Testament are
true? Is not the Old Testament
totally God's word, and therefore
all t-uth Then is the Christian
text, the New Testament, true?
No one knows, according to Mr.
Gonzalez, because God's word can-
not be questioned nor interpreted.
It seems '« me that, by Mr.
Gonzalez' description, God is di-
vided. But God is whole. God calls
other gods false, but they in turn
call God false. Yet other people
believe implicity .in the word of
their gods. Arc they wrong, or are
we?
A Christian, according to Mr.
Gonzalez, must believe that the
world and universe was made
from notl^ng by a feat of pres-
tidigation. An Indian tribe has
the god ftom -a ball of mud. At
least they didn't get something
for nothing as Mr. Gonzales be-
lieves we should.
Did it ever occur to Mi\ Gon-
zalez that his belief in Christianity
because God says so is paralleled
by the old German belief that
something was so because Hitler
said it? Does this not show a
certain lack of logic on his part?

Christianity has many divisions.
These divisions are on interpreta-
tion. Jesu& 'Was immersed on
baptism. Aie all religious denom-
inations that don't immerse blas-
phemous? Mr. Gonzalez thinks
' so because Jesus is part of God,
and immersion should not be
questioned.
Most Christian faiths have mut-
ated from one main one. Who are
we to judge whether the mut-
ation is better or worse than the
root. Can not they be equal in
the eyee of God as the New Testa-
ment states? Who can interpret
God's wishes?. Cannot one person
express his theories— his religion if
you like— in any way he sees fit?
Must he be censored because a
few interpret God's word as cen-
soring the freedom of opinion?
Do not others, who have a differ-
ent religion, also pay taxes to the
government to hear what THEY
wish? Must we hear Bible classes

to hear what other people think,
don't you?

Truth
Not Opinion
Editor, The Varsity:
May I express rfiy whole-hearted
agreement with Mr, Jack Gonzalez
when he says in his letter pub-
lished November 2, "There are
an enormous number of people
whose knowledge of Christianity
has not l:ept pace with their
development in other fields." May
I also suggest that he Is one of
those people?
I believe that Mr. Gonzalez"
arguments do a great disservice
to Christianity. I believe that a
Christian can hear Mr. Hoyle's
statement on religion and answer
them, one by one. I am confident
there is a great deal of truth
in his beliefs.
Faith is strongest wh.n it is
tested. Not only do our ideas be-
come clearer when we must an-
sv/er those w'lo challenge them,
but also much of the dross which
has gathered about them is purged

Good Humour Is Standout
In les Plaideurs' Farce
I Doto played by Edith Grecn-
I berg, (left) consoles her mis-
j tress, Dynamene, played by
I Charlotte ^chrager while the *
I two sit weeping over the death
I of Dynamene*s husband Viril-
Ins. in his tomb. This is the op-
ening scene of A PHOENIX
TOO FREQUENT by Christo-
t pher Fry, which is one of two
plays by this rising English
I playwright, that are to be pre-
sented by Hart House Theatre
nnder the direction of Robert
Gill. The plays will run from
Nov. 30 until Dec. 8 in Hart
Honse Theatre.
Racine's Les Plaideurs is a farce
with just enough satirical content
to provide the amusement that
springs from recognition. Last
night's production of Uiis play, by
Le Cercle Prancais of University
College made the most of the op-
portunities of satirization as well
as of the more obvious exploi ta-
tion of the usual comic types.
Almost plotless, Les Plaideurs is
held together by an unusually un-
complicated love affair and the
legal fixations of a judge whose
inordinate fondness for his profes-
sion has driven him insane and
of Les Plaideurs — a countess and
3 bourgeois who both find law
suits their only pleasure in life.
^The bourgeois, Chicanneau, is
still tenuously tied to reality by his
love of money.)
But neither Racine nor the' per-
formers took the plo't seriousfy; to
both, it provided only the neces-
sary vehicle for the humor, that
was, almost without exception,
quite frivolous, and quite enchant
ing. And this detachment was most
effectively underscored by the de-
liberately unreal visual effect of
the production.
Hube^ Fielden-Briggs designed
the costumes and scenery, and
presumably the makeup also, with
a great deal of intelligent imagina-
tion. The scenery was a bit too
reminiscent of Walt Disney to
suit the period of the play, but
aside from this quibble, it was
gay, colourful, and properly droll.
On the other hand, it would be
dificult to find argument with the
costumes — their colourful pre-
cision and simplified ability to
suggest a seventeenth century

of first-rate chamber music. The i Jean
performers were the Kresz-Ham
bourg Trio. These artists— Norah
de Kresz (.piano, Geza de Kresz
( violin t and Boris Hambourg
(cello) — give the illusion of taking
their music very easily. Their
platform manner is no different
from their manner anywhere else,
and the audience is made to feel
that they are really hearing cham-
ber music performed as it ought
to be. by a group of friends who
just happen to drop in.
The music they play, however, is
not amateur stuff. The program
began with Brahms' Trio in C
minor. Op. 101. Although this is
the third work Brahms wrote for
this combination, he fieems ill at
ease with it, and writes music of
a peculiarly harsh sound, espec-
ially in the first movement. In the
following movements, particularly
in the mysterious scherzo and in
the andante with its seven-four
rhythm, the Kresz-Ham boui-g Trio
succeeded belter in making the
music acceptable from the stand-
iwint of euphony.
- The remainder of the music on
the program makes no attempt
to have a trio sound orchestral.
This music included a contempor-
ary work by Paul Mclntyre — a
melodious Trio-Serenade — and a
relatively ancient one by Jean-
Philippe Rameau. Tiiough styled

certo in the ordinary sense, but a

consisting entirely of piano sona-

paits. It consists of a number of
old dances, with many repeats and
da capo's. In this lucid music the
Kresz-Hambourg Trio was at its
best. They played with zest— a
quality which the gaiety and hu-
mor of this music demainds. As ■
Mrs. de Kresz said, the audience '
seemed to like old music, and the
Haydn Rondo which followed as
an encore was further proof that
she was right.
The Kresz-Hambourg Trio shows
the marks of having played togeth-
er for many years— perfect una-
nimity and understanding among
the players. They gave a finished
performance of every work on
Sunday evening: the harshness of
their first number was probably
due more to the composition than
to their playing of it

Basketball Coach Bob Masterson was inclined to be a
little gloomy over the prospects of his team last night. He
thought it would liliely not be as good as last year's, though
with the numtier of freshmen cage stars out to catch posi-
tions, he admitted, he couldn't say for sure at this early
date.
But three of the first line are gone. Jack Gray has
graduated, Ed Brennan is out with leg injuries, and Bill
Wilson has decided not to play either. Since there are five
men to a team in basketball, and five minus three leaves
two, not much is left of the Blues first line. George Stulac,
the best looking freshman out, was counted on to fill Gray's
shoes, but may quit basketball for the season and concen-
trate on swimming, the sport which he hopes will take him'
over to Finland with the Olympic team next summer. He is
working out with the Intermediates for the time being.
However, the way the Blues looked in their practice
scrimmage last night with the Intermediates, who play
YMHA in the city loop tonight, the coach's pessimism was
hardly warranted. True, their shooting was off, particularly
dose in (Ed Maynerik was sinking some lovely ones) but
we have yet to see a team with sharp shooting after only
two weeks of practice. Plays were being set up well, with
two men in (Natanson and Lukenda) and three out (May-
nerik, Huycke, and Glover). Huycke and Glover, two guards
who came along fast last year, looked sharp as ever yester-

as last year. The opener it at Hobart CoUege on the 29

Yesterday at noon, a more ex-
perienced St. MUce's team out-
classed a very game bunch from
Architecture 44, and advanced in-
to the soccer semi-finals.
The Double Blues started off as
if they were in a hurry to get
I borne; they were pressing hard
right from the opening whistle,
and kept the play bottled up in the
Architecture end. The Architects'
goalie successfully blocked St.
Mike's efforts, until finally Don
Kope found the open corner. St.
Mike's quickly added another one
when Rope beat the goalie again,
on a penalty shot.
The less experienced Architects
tried hard to come from behind,
but they seemed completely befud-
dled by the superior passing
and ball-handling of the Irish.
Soon after Solomon added another
point for Saint Mike's on a beau-
tiful corner shot, and that finish-
ed the scormg lor the first half.
file Double Blues kept on try-
ing to increase the score, but ov-
eranxiousness hampered their aim,
and the Architects began to find
themselves. Ivem Davis kept
driving hard for St. Soke's and
finally made the scoresheet at the
beginning of the second balf with
hard drive that the goalie
couldn't get.
St. Mike's missed an easy goal
when a penalty shot from only
about eight yards out went wild,
while on the other side only a bril-

Truth JVnt Out
— Cartorn by Hugh Niblock.
A baby has been born on the campus. And the Univer-
sity of Toronto, throug-h the Students' Administrative Coun-
cil, is to be its foster parent. We know that it will be called
by its nickname SHARE, because the words which its initials
represent, Student Help For Asian Relief And Education,
will be forgotten as soon as they are explained.
What is SHARE? This is about as difficult a question
to answer as "Who is Sylvia ?" Purportedly, it is the succes-
sor to last year's All-Varsity Aid which attempted to show ,
our interest in the welfare of fellow universities in South-
East Asia. But as yet, we have been shown none of the
idealism which resulted in th adoption of such a relief
campaign last year.
Rather we have been presented with a slogan — SHARE.
We have been told that it is a good cause, without even
being told why. And worst oi all, we have been asked to
participate in something whicli we know nothing about.
Thei'e are many charities, all of which have slogans, but
they hardly ever secure our support on the basis of a set of
initials.
Last year's All Varsity Aid on the other hand, was
•uccessful on the campu.s because it did explain the reason
for its existence — and very forcefully. Through its very
explicitness, the university was united in a cause which had
every reason for their support. Naturally the campaign it-
self was not perfect; but then it was a first step and not
the last word.
This year, then, SHARE set out to follow in AVA's
footsteps. (Changing the name hardly indicates the con-
tinuity.) Yet even now, it is not known where the steps
of AVA led. Recipients of the aid, Sindt, a University in
Pakistan, and Jammia-melia, a University in India, have
not acknowledged its arrival. Probably this is just a ques-
ton of red-tape delay. Nonetheless, students have a right
to know how last year's aid was received before they are
asked to give again.
This year's SHARE is gravely determined to avoid
what it considers to be AVA mistakes. In practice, this has
been interpreted to mean, "Don't expose baby SHARE to
public view". Perhaps we are being rather vulgar in want-
ing to know all about the child; what it looks like, how it
functions and what it wants to do. But if the students
of this university are expected to pay for its future, they
surely have every right to know all the projected plans
«nd every right to take an active part in forming them.
A person to person canvass has been chosen by the
External Affairs CommiXtee (EAC) as the best means to
raise money. (You would think they were organizing a push
not a drive.) Yet the personal approach will become .simply a
personal touch, if students are going to be asked to give
willingly for an unpublicised plan in a hushed up campaign.
Bdltor, The Varsity:
I am a Christian, far from perfect and
still learning a great deal about the won-
ders of God's creation from the natural
scientists.
May I, sir, take issue with Gonzalez's
letter.
I do not wish to go into the matter of
many versions of the Bible, or the un-
happy divisions in Christendom over
which are the essential matters of faith.
But I would remind him of the pride
that has caused the Church to oppose
Copernicus, Galileo, and Darwin in the
name of Christ. Then to discover that
these gentlemen were really teaching the
natural scientific facts of creation and a
possible method God could have used.
I would not admit "that God and Lord
Russell — are possibly equally liable to
error." But I would admit that my inter-
pretation of Scripture, or any other means
God has used to reveal His truth, is as
liable to error as anyone else's. I believe
that revelation goes beyond what is dis-
coverable by human reason, but I can not
believe that God's revelation is contrary
to reason.
Mr. Gonzalez says, "Mr. Hoyle, if con-
trary to the word of tiod — " How are we
to know if he is not gfven a chance to be
heard? Select bodies of religiously right-
eous men killed the prophets and crucified
Jesus to stop their opinions contaminating
the people.
Which of the two stories of Cre
Genesis, Chapter 1 to 2; verse 4, or
ter 2, verse 4 on, would Gonzalez

Reprinted from The Varsity, Nov.
22, 1953.
Ever since Monday, it has been
generally felt that certain iiTe-
sponsible members of our student
body have gone too far.
In accordance with its usual
editorial policy of objectivity,
tolerance and broad-mindedness,
The Varsity has regarded with
comparative indulgence similar
incidents in the past. In 1951
several such happenings were
treated only with mild censure.
In 1952 the bombing of Whitney
Hall by the Shuzoff brothers,
Ivan and Joseph, was partly con-
doned because it was felt that
the boys were under a nervous
strain at the time. But this time
it has gone too far, altogether too
far.
Did the immature hooligans
who burned down University Col-
lege the day before yesterday stop
to thinii that their foolish action
might cause considerable ex-
pense and trouble? They justify
their prank on the grounds that
it will not lie necessary to find
new lecture rooms for UC stu-
dents, since both students and
lecturers were in the cullege dur-
ing the conflagration. However,
We feel that this is no excuse for
an act of wanton destructlveness,
After all, are we Intelligent uni-
versity students, or children?
Neither the principal of UC nor
Dud Morose, president of the Lit,
is available for comment, but
all other faculty and student rep-
resentatives join in condemna-
tion of this sort of puerile exhi-
bitionism. Robert Poalcatt of the
Engineering Society was seen
wiping his eyes, and Thomas
Crump of Trinity expressed the
Editor, The Varsity:
I understand that certain dam-
aging inferences taken from my
letter in yesterday's Varsity
have proved unfortunate for
feelings of all wiien he re-
marked, "Dear me."
In view of the general annoy-
ance and other caused by the
disappearance of UC, The Var-
sity heartily endorses the com-
ment of SAC president Windy
Sax, ". . . most regrettable. We
all enjoy a good practical joke
now and again, but the joker
should have some regard for
other people's feelings. This
one really isn't funny, it really
isn't,"
Windstosser
Shirley Endicott. On the basis of
informal conversations I feel
that she could be justified in
using my name, though I did
not sigTi the stencil in question,
Prom my point of view the whole
issue has arisen from a series
of misunderstandings and I do
not wish the impression to re-
main that I endorse the- opinions
expressed therein.

The new. Engineer-controlled, Universitv Peace Council

United Nations Club, following a decision made at the year's
first business meeting of the Council yesterday.

those of the UN Club, and whereas the Peace Council has a
bad name on the campus, be it re-

Champion On Campus
New Hue and Cry^
Another newspaper. Champion, will probably be on sale on the
campus today. At any rate, the smiling newsgirl pictured above. Kari
Levitt, promised she would be back today when she was snapped
selling' the paper's last edition in front of Hart House two weeks ago.
Champion, "The Fighting Voice of Youn^ Canada," is published
every other Thursday. It is backed by a number of groups, among them
the National Federation of Labor Youth.
In its lead story in the issue pictured aiwve. headlined "They're
after your life! Fight for it!", Champion describes the great number
of Canadian soldiers who are going to Europe to be a part of "a US-led
army which will include former Nazi generals like Kurt Meyer."
Another headline says "CAMPUS OPINION PAVOBS VISIT TO
CANADA BY SOVIET STUDENTS." This story describes the question
of Soviet; visits at the recent conference of the International Student
Service, "which defeated, 15-12, a motion asking the National Federation
of Canadian University Students to reconsider its decision not to invite
Soviet students to Canada.
The story covers the "heated discussion" at the DSS conference, and
tells of support for the visit at the Universities of McGill and Montreal.
The same question has taken up space in another paper, the
Canadian Tribune, which blamed the NFCUS decision on "American
Infiltration" into the Canadian body's ranks,
"This yeafs new NFCUS executive, hammered into line by a so-
called US fraternal delegate (to the conference), cynically washed out
the deep desire of Canadian students for such international student
exchanges," the story said.
The fraternal American delegate to the conference is named as Al
Lowenstein, described as "the leader of the group fighting the proposals
of last year's executive."
Actually, the American delegate was Bill Denzer, President of the
United States National Student Association, who made only one speech
at the conference. Lowenstein was the fraternal delegate from the
USNSA to the 1950 conference.
solved that the Council's executive
is allowed to negotiate an amal-
gamation between the Council and
the UN Club, this amalgamation
subject to ratification by the gen-
eral body."
The Engineers took over the Uni-
versity Peace Council from its orig-
inal members last March, by joining
en masse, and electing their own
officers.
In the Student's Handbook, the
new organization is described as
"reformed on non-party lines". The
book continues, "PEACE, the avow-
ed object of the organization, re-
mains the same. The means to this
end will t>e reformed this year."
4) Speaking against amalgamation,
last year's Peace Council President
^^ Don Anderson suggested that those
■ 4, persons who wanted to unite the
two organizations join the UN Club,
but maintain the Peace Council for
those who wanted to remain mem-
bers of it.
He further opposed amalgamation
on the grounds that the aims of
the two organizations were differ-
ent. "The UN Club is interested in
the affah-s of the United Nations,
of which Peace is naturally an im-
portant.part — but only a part," he
said, "The Peace Council is the
only organl2ation which Is devoted
to peace," he added.
The meeting was interrupted at
one point, after the minutes were
read, by a loud cry ot "Peace
Brethren, let there be Peace," as
ten Engineers mawhed down tlie
aisle to their seats.
Council President Bishop com-
plained at the meeting about the
accounts harided over to him by
last year's executive.
"When I finally got the records,"
He said that the book was only ft
list of the payments and receipts
for the past tnree years, and that
there was no documentai-y evidence
to support these accounts.
He added that of 200 membership
cards which the CIiUj (according to
their accounts) had ordered in 1949,
only 71 were accounted for.
"All this goes to show that the
Peace Council for the. past threa
years has Ijeen a secret oi-ganiaa-
tion," remarked Bishop. "There Ij
no membership list for that period.
Cards were issued, but no record
was kept. And 129 membership
cards have been withheld from th«
new president."
"It seems the Council has dono
nothing for the last three years."*
he said, and added, "It makes you
wonder what all this shouthig is
about."
Countering this. May Lipman. r
Meds, exclaimed. "You talk about
last year's Council not doing any-
thing. But at least it didn't watt
two months to hold its first busi-
ness meeting!"
"What has happeend to those per-
sons who took over the Council m
vigorously last year, and were goin«
to do so much with it?" Miss Lip-
man asked.
Answering- an Engineer who disa-
greed with Miss Llpman's remarks.
Bishop suggested "You two should
get together, preferably in the neir
Student Union Building."
Nominations were also received
for the posts of Vice-President and
Publicity Manager. Elections ft*
these officers will be held some-
time in the next few weeks.

to the campus proper the club be-
came a Hart House committee.
After a frantic search for space, a
former ticket office at the west end
of Hart House was requisioned
and cleaned up. The equipment
from Ajax was transferred to the
"bicycle shed"— the members' fond
name for it— and VE3BPD— U of

Since Us inception, the club has
become associated with the

building. This loan of equipment
by the air force is a criterion of
the value placed on such projects
by the government. I
In addition to the opportunity
provided to contact other amateur
radio enthusiasts in far-flung lo-
calities the Hart House Club pro-
vides part of an emergency radio
communication net in times of
disaster. During the Texas City
disaster, and the Missouri flood
the "ham" radios of tlie locaUty
were olten the only means of
communication with outside areas.
In addition many major discover-
ies in electronics — one of tRem
the superhet transmitter — have
been developed by "hams."
While such activities illustrate
the more glamorous aspects of the
"ham's" hobby, his main enjoy-
ment is derived from simply com-
municating with his fellow hobby-
ists, wherever they may be. The
Hart House committee's main func-
tions is to provide a station for
"hams" who haven't their own
The opportunity is also given for
others to learn the theory and code
necessary to obtain the govern-
ment licence, without which an
amateur cannot operate. The club
also holds open meetings at which
experienced guest speakers are
often presentd. On in a series of
such meetings will be held on

The club works quietly and ef-

For Asian Aid
The new Relief campaign on
the campus is going to follow the

end sell parking space for the
Grey Cup game next Saturday.
The new drive— Student Help for
Asian Relief and Education — Is
fioing to use all available space
around the university for parking
purposes, Director Tim Armstrong,
H Vic. said yesterday.
Volunteer students will supervise
parking on the campus, he said.
Plans call for use of fraternity
lawns, lots, backyards, campus
fields and driveways. Charge will
be 50 cents a car.
Responsibility for finding volun-
teer parkers has been left to the
Students' Administrative Council.
At the Council's last meeting, each
member was asked to find four
people from his faculty or col-
lege to do the work. Other persons
interested in helping should apply
at the parking campaign's head-
quarters, at 118 St. George.
Student Help for Asian Relief

This article, the fourth in a series od the
National Federation of Canadian University Stu-
dents, is concerned with the international activities
of the Canadian student body. The fifth article, on
NFCUS on the Toronto campus, will appear
Monday.
Should NFCUS take part m in-
ternational activities? Many stu-
dents say, "No, NFCUS is a nation-
al organization, to serve Cana-
dian students. It shouldn't meddle
with the affairs of otlier countries,
which aren't our concern."
However, in the recent years
there has been increased Canadian
interest in world student affairs.
Many people should take part in
the conferences which are being
held between the various national
student groups. And since it is the
representative national student or-
ganization, NFCUS is the logical
body to represent Canada at these
meetings.
This year the national body has
got itself into one piece of trouble
regarding international affairs: the
now-famous "Russian question". At
its annual conference last Septem-
ijer, the organization decided to
withdraw an invitation extended in
its name to a group of Russian stu-
dents to visit Canada.
A move is now under way to have
the executive re-open the question
to a national referendum. If the
universities, by student vote, ap-
prove the principle of Russian vis-
Its, the invitation will have to be
re-extended.

Election Mighlight
By BICH CLEE
All students who wished to vote
in St. Patrick's riding during the
elections yesterday were required
to sign oaths of permanent resi-
dence or statements that they were
students resident at the university.
John Medcof, president of the
Liberal Club on the Toronto cam-
pus, said yesterday that while the
District Returning Officers had
been instructed to challenge all
University students, they were also
instructed to allow them to vote.
He added that in case of an un-
favorable decision, the students
could later be brought to trial, al-
though there was some doubt as to
the nature of the charge that would
be preferred.
Medcof said that the Liberal can-
didate had instructed his scrutin-
eers to challenge students, and
hence was ijeing condemned, by the
campus club. A formal statement
was prepared, which stated, "The
U of T Liberal Club condemns the

At press time last night the lead-
ers of the other two major campus
political parties were not available
for comment. However students who
had voted stated that they had not
been challenged by either Progres-
sive Conservative or CCF scrutin-
eers at the polls.
At 11 p.m. last night, the results
in St. Patrick's, the tmiversity rid-

elected with 7,247 votes, a clear
majority over the Liberal, Macken-
zie who had totalled 2,487 ballots

No comment was available from
the election authorities on the
number of resident students vot-
ing but one scrutineer said that it
had been very small. As yet, no
action has been reported as taken
against voting University resident

This is the second meeting these I

they decided that if possible they I

Prof. E. A. Allcuf
"Engineers must learn Engiisn," stated Professor
Edgar Alfred Allcut, head of the Department of
Mechanical Engineering at the University of To-
ronto.
"Engineers have to write many reports to convey
their own ideas to someone else's ^mind. There-
fore they must know clearly what 'they want to
convey and then they must know how to convey
it." And Prof. Allcut was instrumental in starting
the procedure where fourth year students must
write a thesis, make a speech on it, and conduct
the meeting discussing it.
Professor Allcut is a remarkable example of the
all-round student become the all-round man. As
a student of engineering at the University of Bir-
mingham, he was cartoonist for the university
magazine. His specialty was caricatures of pro-
fessors. He played cricket, rugby, track and tennis,
and was sub-editor of the English Journal. And he
still managed to get his M. Sc., win the Heslop"
Gold Medal, and become a Bowen Research
Scholar.
And now the pattern is much the same. His
list of chairmanships, honorary and actual mem-
berships, subsequent prizes, and books and articles
he has written, is almost unending. He "was the
first winner of the A. Stewart prize given for test
work in the field of Diesel engines. He is technical
advisor of "Manufacturing and Industrial En-
gineering," and wiites the book reviews. He is
chairman of the Committee on Atmospheric Pol-
lution in Canada, one of his pet fields.
This past summer he went to Brussels to rep-
resent the University of Toronto and the Engineer-
ing Institute of Canada at the Ninth International
Management Conference, addressing 1300 people
from 26 countries. He gave the only two Canadian
papers at a meeting in England of world leaders
in the subject of heat transfer. And at the same
time he corrected the proofs of his latest book,
the text used by engineering students, on indus-
trial management.
The non-academic side of his career gives stiff
rivalry In the portioning out of his time. He coach-
ed the soccer team for Skule for ten years after
his arrival here, and at present Is on the Athletic
By PEARL FABNE3
Directorate. For relaxation he reads history and
biography, classical novels and the classics in
translation, and has kept up a record of one
book per week on subjects outside his own field.
"My primary Interests have always been more
directed to the ai-ts than the sciences. And I am
a better engineer because of it."
His prize possessions include two daughters,
tliree grandchUdren, and a coUection of 700 records,
rivaling the Carnegie Record Collection which he
has welcomed into the New Mechanical BuUding.
His love 01 sports and his creative drive still
find expression: he plays "at" golf, and dabbles
in verse, satirizing his own professlo-^.
I'rofcssor AUcufs appointment to the University
of Toronto, where he has been for the past thirty
years, came about almost by accident. He had filled
engineering positions at several large plants in Eng-
land, including the place where Watt had worked
and the steam engine had first been produced in
quantity. He taught in the evenings. One day in
J921, he called on an old professor of his. who' in
the course of conversation, casually asked him "Like
to go to Canada?" Shortly afterwards Prof. Allcut
arrived at Toronto as a lecturer in the-rmo-dynamics
and heat engines.
A visit to thft Mechanical Building Itself is a
sobering experience to the arts student (or staff-
member) who is ignorant and often patronizing to
the field of engineering. In the basement of the
buildmg is a miniature Niagara Falls, complete with
water (which can be rushed througli at 9.000 gallons
per minute) and the proposed new power plant A
model of a river bed with "log^" is directed to the
problem of preventing the logs from piling up.
Projects for dam improvement and for getting heat
from the earth are only two of the vat e.\periment8
the engmeering students and grads are tackling.

building most arts students know well, la now being
fitted to become the only Engineering Museum In

The question of a Russian stu-

versities received more support yes-
terday when the Women's Under-
graduate Association of University
College voted in favor of the prin-
ciple of a Russian stadexit tour 39-

The WUA also voted in favor of
recommending to the National
Federation of Canadian University
Students that they consider a short
tour of about 15 Russian students
this year, or, alternately, next year.
This motion was carried 36-4.
A third vote supported 33-8 tho
idea of a year-long student ex-
change between Canadian and Rus-
sian students.
Forty-two of University College's
668 women turned out to this meeU
ing to vote on a question which
has caused campus-wide interest
this year. That is, about 6.3%.
The UC women are the tenth

Meds Society
Shows Movie
The Medical Society decided that
Meds would raise money for the
Red Feather campaign this year
by showing a documentary film of
the work done by eight of the
66 Red Feather agencies rather
than by contributing to the Red
Feather Pair. However it was de-
cided not to announce that the
popular Medical Clinic would be
absent from the Fair until after the
Fair was over in case this might af-
fect the attendance.
The Society felt that the techni-
color film would bring the claims
of the charities to the individual
student. The film was shown dur.
ing lecture and lab hours to the
six medical years, with a chancs
being given at the end of each
showing for the students to con-
tribute.

Visiting Student From India
Describes Home Condition
Miss Lakshmi Bao, of India, spoke
to an open meeling of the Wom-
en's Undergraduate Association of
University College yesterday, with
the purpose of making her audi-
ence familiar with the universities
and students in India. She explain-
ed that the educational system
now being delevloped in India was
co-education among the younger
children, separation of the sexes
during the adolescence, and co-
education again in the university.
She also stated in passing that the
money spent in bringing one stu-
dent over here from India would
help fifty Indian students through
college there.
The curriculum of a university
in India, which Miss Rao describ-
ed, is more rigid than in Canada.

She also spoke of the women of
India— their fight against planned
marriages and for franchise. A
wotnan in India can now vote if
she is literate, and if she or her
husband owns property. Miss Rao
named several women holding pub-
lic offices in India, and said that
the men had no prejudice against
women in public life. "But," she
added, "in the economic sphere,
men put a tab on women." -
She ended her speech by exhort-
ing the girls at the meeting not to
lose their sense of ideals, or to con-
sider them old-fashioned.
Do you know what tliis country

and exactly how these two are be-
ing carried out.
E. B. Jolliffe, Opposition Leader
t-V.CF.) In the Ontario Leg1sla,t\u-e
since 1942, met with the U. of To-
ronto Political Science Club a
while ago, -and without entering the
field of poUtical intrigue, he had
some pretty straight talk to offer.
"Public apathy and iridifference
are replacing the barbaiic methods
and extreme views natural to po-
litical parties in the past," quotes
The Varsity. "This poiblic apathy
arising from an unfoimded sense
of security constitutes the main
danger to democracy." Th^m from
these generalities, the news ac-
count becomes more specific.
"Democracy will only function
perfectly when more people give
more thought and more service to
politics. The alternative forms of
totaUtarianism and autocracy are
corrupt, wasteful, stupid and even
less efficient t*ian democrax:y. De-
mocracy demands more from its
beneficiaries than most Canadians
are willing to give, as is witnessed
in the pitifully small vote polled
in Canadian elections, and the
great difficulty of political parties
to secure candidates.''

For its third pair of subscrip-
tion concerts last Tuesday and
Wednesday, the Toronto Symphony
Orchestra played a program con-
sisting of the overture to Sme-
tana's "The Bartered Bride," John
Weinzweig's Divertiments for Oboe
and Strings, Elgar's Enigma Varia-
tions and Brahms' Fourth Sym-
phony.
In a program rather heavily
loaded with lush-sounding
nineteenth century music, the
sparsely orchestrated, terse, htr
tie Divertimento by . Weinzweig
provided a welcome contrast.
This, my third, hearing of the work,
convinced me that twelve tone mu-
sic recjutres more than anything
else familiarity with the piece in
ouestion for its enjoyment. Weinz-
weig's conception of harmony (and
for that matter, of rhythm too) is
often very different from what we
commonly regard as normal and
natural. But it takes a surpris-
ingly short time to acccustom
oneself to it. and to hear the mu-
sic in what at first sounds like a
bizarre, random - juxtaposition of
notes.

balcoiij viewpoint
By DAVE PBDDIE
The U.C. Players Guild are to t>e commended for their pi-oduoticms
of Noah's Flood and Doctor Faustus last Wednesday night. They were
both inteiesting and different and it is througli an understanding
of these plays that one can arrive at a better idea of drama.
Unfortunately the productions did not try fully enough to present
the plays as they were done originally. Noah's Flood in particular is a
narrative play and is addressed to the audience. All attempts at
lighting only interrupt what should be a straight story. The cast and
director, however, did capture the spontaneity of the play and it cpme
off not too badly.
Til© main event thoug^h was Doctor Faustus^ the story of the bril-
liant scholar who turns to magic and the E>evil in order to satisfy
his own ambition. For 24 years he enjoys all pleasures and powers
before he is'daJuned eternally.
FAUSTUS is a sood play with. i#ome beautiful poetry, but it did
not come across as it should. It was crying out for a less realistic
production. The electrician was a^jain overworked, and the frequent
curtains only broke up a play that should flow. The EliL*ibethan
theatre was in the open air, and was much more stagey — theatrical —
thsn our own theatre, Marlowe wrote his plays , to" be acted in thiS
manner and the realistic underplaying -of the U.C. actors was out
of place. The attempt to get atmosphere by dark lights was a waste,
for it often seemed awkward and out of place. The atmospheie is in
the lines; we get it if we listen. But if the stage is dark, we spend
too much time looking for Faustus.
As to the staginess of Hizabethan drama (many people will re-
member the opening of Olivier's Henry V) the acting must be large
ill gesture and voice. Marlowe is regarded as a master of rhetoric,
and it is a shame when lines are not given rhetorically. Following
from tills point of view — most of the action should be on the
front of the stage, and the scenes with Wagner should be played
with the audience, much as a nigtit-club comedian plays with his
audience.
This, of course, all sounoi. very Know-it-all, but since the play
is to be performed again in Hart House Theatre early in January,
it might be wise if John Hampson, who directed and played Dr.
Paustus would consider these things. As the play stands now it is
weal;. We got a great deal from the lines for they were well spoken
and verse is not easy. But. if Mr. Hampson could "suit the action to
the word" the effect would be much more moving. Let me remind
him that in spite of the wavej'ings of conscience, Faustus has a hard
heart and a well founded pride in himself, and these qualities were
Dot too apparent.
Will Crichton as Mephistopheles was good and so was Walter Stan-
wick's Lucifer. I think the uest scene was the one with the Seven
Deadly Sins, but Lucier should have been more front and centre. Jack
Sherrif as Wagner had the right idea and I think will improve.
All in all it was a good evening because tir^ actors were interested
the show. That is, after all. half the battle.

■■The Bab (Gate), and Baha'u'llah
(Glory of God) are the Twin Pil-
lars of a new civilization which,
was inaugurated in 1844 by the de-
claration by the Bab of his unique
station as a Manifestation of God,"
said Elizabeth Manser, IV Vic at
the open meeting of the Baha'i
Student Group yesterday.
"Is this a new utopia with its
vague generalizations, ideals, ideas
and sentiments? What will it do
for us? Is it a strength or a force
with power to combat the negative
and pessimistic thinking of today?"
These were the questions which
Miss Manser proceeded to answer
in the course of the meeting.
"Now is the beginning of a new
Baha'i Civilization. It is actually
being established now. Some of its
institutions have already achieved
a high degree of maturity. Others
are in the process of formation.
Why do we believe it will pro-
gress?"
"Every manifestation of God in
the past, including Christ and Mo-
hammed, has alone estabhshed a
new civilization. People, have been
changed*. Human nature has been
changed. Each of these Faiths had
something strong, vital and neces-
sary—a renewal of Faith — which
works. This power of renewed faith
is evident In the development of
the Christian religion from the
words and life of one man to the
spiritual enlightment of the
whole of western civilization, and
in the similar phenomenal influ-
ence of the Islamic Faith on Euro
pean life following the coming of
faderal Sa/af
Mohammed and today upon thi
civilization of the Middle East.
"The Baha'i Faith is not jusi
another step in the evolution of
man. This is the day of the unity
of man. Manifestations of God suc-
ceeding Baha'u'llah will be teach-
ing to one world. Now, just over
one hundred years since the ad-
vent of the Bab, men are univer-
sally beginning to acknowledge th«
validity of the Baha'i ideals. We
are just now becoming able to sea
through our errors and prejudices".
Miss Manser continued by out--

traiion, in which the members ol

The speaker described the reai
struggle in the world today as tiii
convulsions of a dylrtg civiliza-
tion with the birth-pangs of th€
new being endured at the sam«
time. Realizing tlie difficulty of en-
visioning the new society with all
of the Divine principles in opera-
tion Miss Manser suggested thai
the foundations have already been
established and that the "Bahal
syst-em offers growth and oppor-
tunity to seive in the concrete

The ex-Oakwood coUeg^ian Is one
of the two hold-overs on defence
this year along with Gerry Pitz-
benry. In the 1950-51 season Kane
piled up a total of 10 points and
was second highest scoring de-
fenceman in the league next to
his partner Porky MacDougall.
Those 10 points also meant that
he was the fifth highest scorer on
the Blues.
With the introduction of the
••clipping" penalty last year many
of Joe's famous dives at the puck-
carrier had to be dispensed with.
In his first year with the Blues he
brought to mind many aspects as-

from all those who sign up, with
an eye toward equal distribution of

schedule of practices arranged at
the Lillian Massey Pool, prepare
themselves for the meet.
Since the aim of the Club is to

In the soccer playoff game on
the back campus yesterday, U.C.
and Dents played to a one^ll tie.
It was a well played game, with
some good passing and fancy foot-
work, but after full time plus four
overtime periods it slowed down
notably.
It started with U.C. driving very
bard and keeping the play in the
Dents' end of the field, but the
Dents' fullbacks didn't allow them
any shots. From then on, the play
was confined to the middle of the
field with neither team having an
edge, until Ed Fast worked his
way to the U.C. goal and shot
hard drive which hit the top of the
goal, bounced on the ground and
then rolled off the field. Dents
claimed that it bounced inside the
goal area, and though U.C. protest-
ed the referee declared it a goal.
The decision seemed right though
his ability to see the play from
where he was standing is question-
able. Anyway the score was 1-0
against U.C. and though they tried
very hard for the rest of the half,
that is the way things stood at
half time.
After the rest, U.C. came back
very strongly and had the Dents'
goalie working overtime. Finally
Dalnoki evened things up on a pass
from Mackenzie, with a hard shot
into the open corner. Prom there
on U.C. seemed determined to go
ahead in the scoring in a hurry,
though but they came very close
to scoring, the ball refused to go
into the net. So the regulation time
ran out with the score stlil 1-1.
The game went into overtime,
but when after foiur overtime per-
iods the score was still tied, the
game was declared no contest. Dur-
ing the overtime the game prac-
tically slowed down to a walk, but
still retained the qualities of a good
soccer game. The artsmen retained
a slight edge most of the time, yet
couldn't make it pay off.
For U.C, Dalnoki and Macken-
zie were the standouts, while for
the Dentists, Ralph Hunt and
John Tokiwa were very dangerous
and almost succeeded in winning
the game for Dents, while Porler

Skulemen On Top 2-0
Over Trying Parsons
By BOB GODSON
The Varsity Orphuns, taking advantage of thei^
superior condition, came from behind in the second half la«t
night at Hart House to outlast a fighting YMHA club 57
to 42. The Baby Blues broke the game wide open in thai
second half, led by the sensational shooting of freshman
George Stulac who netted 22 points for the game's be-il-
individual performance. .
• « Leading 26 to 24 at the half
YMHA found themselves outhustled
as they started the third period
Coach Dalt White of the Orphm^
predicted a hundred percent im
provement in his club as soon as
the players get to know each other
better.
It was a surprisingly good game
tor the first game of the season
with the play rough and exciting.
The teams seemed to be feelinj.
each other out in the first halt
with many shots either rimming or
completely missing the basket. With
6 minutes remaining in the first
half, however, play started to picij
up with the score tied 17 aU, as
Stulac and Nick Yakomln begaiL
to find the range. YMHA however
took advantage of the breaks and
leaped into a 24-20 lead in tlie
closmg minutes. It was then that
newcomer Doug Kettle of Varsity
made his best play of the night
when ho stole the ball, pivoted, and
sank a beautiful hook shot. Willie
Silverman sank two foul shots to
end the half with YMHA ahead by
two points.
Bob Milne played a good defen.
sive game for Varsity and he hoop,
ed a nice hook shot to tie up the
game 28 all early In the third quar-
ter. Kettle showed a lot of finesse
and covered a lot of ground in lead-
ing the Blues to a 38-33 lead at
three quarter time,
George Stulac, last year's runner
up in the TSSAA scoring race, took
personal charge in sewing up the
game in the last quarter for the
Orphuns, He scored 12 points within

Hockey continued to dominate
the Intramural sports action as
three games were carded yester-
day. In the most important tussle
of the day, Vic in took a 4-1 de-
cision over Forestry A's with a
three goal outburst in the second
period. Kirkwood was the big gun
for the Scarlet and Gold as he fired
two tallies, the others going to
Taylor and Ivy. Ross scored for
the Woodchoppers.
Trinity C and Dents B battled to
a2-all saw-off in another hockey
match, as the former came back
irom a one goal deficit at the end
of the first period to tie the game.
All the scoring in the game was
done by two players. Ripley whip-
ped in two for the Crurapeteers
while Murdock netted a brace for
the Molarmen.
The third game of the day saw
Inst. Management whitewash SPS
V 2-0. Ford and Welse were the
marksmen for the winners.
In the lone lacrosse encounter
of the day SPS m downed Vic II
4-1 by maintaining a goal a per-
iod pace. Kingston scored twice
for the Engineers and others went
to Clarke and Weiczorek. Hulbert
saved his team from a shutout by
driving one past the Skule net-
minder in the second session.

Auerback pointed out that the
University Press has increased its
rates by 13%, bringing the cost of
publication up to $800 an issue. This
means that six issues would cost
$4,800.
The Journal is subsidized by the
Medical Society to the extent of
$2,000 advertising and graduate sub'
scriptions account for an additional

More Apathy!
student apathy is a Dreadful Thing. Few people can be
found who will deny such a statement. Yet, at the Uni-
versity of Toronto, with a little luck, we may be able to
avoid it altogether.
The University of McGill seems to be accomplishing
something along this line. A report carried in Tuesday's
iftsue of The Varsity stated that apathy at McGill was at a
low ebb. Very fine, indeed. Possibly we should consider
how they were able to accomplish such a feat. The partial
ftbolition or even decline in apathy is something which most
club executives and organizers have been wanting to accom-
plish for a very long time.
We would suggest that the low ebb of apathy at McGill
*nd the "No Activities Week" are very closely connected.
(All extra-curricular activities have been suspended for a
whole week, beginning last Monday at the University of
McGill. Small wonder, then, if student apathy fails to
flourish in such an unflourishing climate. How, indeed, can
we expect apathy to survive if we take away all the activi-
ties which cause it to?
In short, it is impossible to chastise apathetic students,
if there is nothing to be apathetic about.
An Interesting and historical development has
been the intensive growth of liigher educational
facUities in the French Canadian Universities.
The remarkable progress made in the organization
of the University of Montreal and the bold vision
■of the projected new $10,000,000 campus of the
University of Laval are but two examples of the
vigorous growth.
Witli the increase of these facilities tlie propor-
tion of French Canadian university students has
steadily increased. Today the representatives ot
these colleges are seen at almost every student
meeting and their voices are being heard in the
councils of Canadian student government.
There can be no doubt in the minds of any
Eerlous group that this development can-ies with
it great ipotentiaUties for the futm-e.
There has been gi'eat alarm voiced in many
circles at what is believed to be an ever-widening
gap between the French Canadians and the rest
of Canada. This fear has been, based on mis-
understanding, prejudice and ignorance. There is
great need for clear, honest thinking on the future
relations between the peoples of Quebec and our-
Belves.
The emergence of a large group of students
carrying with them the hopes of their people for
the development and future of French Canada
offers to us the challenge to use these opportu-
nities to develop a deep and understanding bond
of friendship with our French Canadian brothers.
E^'en more challenging is the realization that this
friendship will budge not only the gaps of dif-
ferent cultural heritages but also, open the door
to religious tolerance and understanding.
The more one'consioers the possibilities inherent
in this idea the more one comes to realize that
here is an approach worthy of the sincerest con-
sideration. As trite as it may sound, there can
be no denying that from this group of French
speaking students will emerge the political and
cultural leaders of the French Canadian com-
munity. Here is presented the opportunity to

In the French Canadian community. If we

Who shall benefit from the vigorous attempt at
understanding and friendship? The answer is

The greatness of Canada lies not only In the

Canada is dependent on the unity of its people,

Radio Different
Not For Mailer
Says Sandwell
the campus. It has been stimulating and for that reason OUR READERS WRITE
has aroused a good deal of student apathy.
Again, the campus shows have descended on the campus
like the measles. They are all over the place. Such an
untoward outbreak of activity can hardly meet with any-
thing but apathy.
Similarly with plays. Presentations such as the UC
French Club's "Les Plaideurs" and Hart HTouse Theatre'a
next choices, Fry's "A Phoenix Too Frequent" and "Boy
■with a Cart" should not be presented if we hope to avoid
student indifference.
It is clear then, that desperate measures would need
to be taken to do away with student apathy. Only- by
dispensing with all activity could we ever hope to ei-adicate
it entirely.
Possibly some activities or projects could be allowed
to remain. The Radio Committee and even the Student
IJnion Committee could be allowed to remain; surely they
would not stimulate student apathy too much.
But, on our part, we would like to encourage student
apathy — and enthusiastically. It indicates more clearly
than anything else, that there is a certain amount of activity
in a university. We call for more student apathy. We cannot
have enough.
Editor, The Varsity:
I find it a little embarrassing
to be coupled with Mr. Jack Gon-
zales in your editorial of Novem-
ber 21 as having "a desire to lim-
it free speech". Prom this letter
I rather think that Mr. Gon-
zales would like to limit free
speech in any method of com-
munication, including the print- ,
ed word and the public meeting.
■I am merely doubtful of the
wisdom of unlimited free speech
by radio, which is surely a rather
different thing. Radio has cer-
tain special characteristics which
differentiate it from all methods
of communications "The Naked
and the Dead" is in many ways
an admirable novel, and like you
I should violently oppose any at-
tempt to suppress its distribu-
tion in Canada. But I should
question the wisdom of any
broadcasting authority which
undertook to have it read over
the air.

came through the University while
students were still in classrooms
or labs. However, this one was
different from ttie Santa Claus
parade. The Grey Cup float pa-
rade broke up on the front cam-
pus.
Several students wondered what
the parade would do when it
reached the barricade under the
bridge, but nothing could stop the
swarms from Ottawa. Regina and
Balmy Beach as they swept past
the guards.
Mogt of the floats were low,
green ones from Regina carrying
a sign saying that some small
field in the Queen City of the west
got a tarp in 2'/2 days while it
took Varsity several years. How-
ever, behind this float marched
ociety . carrying their tarp to
show that the West hasn't every-
thing.
There were several herds of
horses in this parade, most of
which were allowed to run loose on
the front campus. One, student
felt that this would play havoc
with the soccer games on Monday.
A large Canadian soft drink com-
pany had a float containing a
small sign and several liundred
bottles of its products. This float
practically disappeared when it
stopped in front of Convocation
Hall.
However there was one big dis-
appointment for the men who wait- ,
ed on the front campus for the
parade to come. Miss America
never arrived.
Trivett. Law II. Publicity Direc-
tor of the UN Club denied the va-
lidity of this argument. He pointed
to the words of the statement o£
aims of the UN made at San Fran-
cisco where the signatory powers
"determined to save succeeding
generations from the scourge of
war , . . and tor these ends to
unite our strength to maintain in-
ternational peace and security . . .
1 and to accomplish these aims . . .
do hereby establish . . . the Unit-
ed Nations."
"This statement is clear, concise
and to the point." he continued
"It leaves no doubts in the read-
ers' minds that the UN is organiz-
ed to ensure peace. The method
of establishing such peace is to be
through tolerance, understanding
and co-operation and not through
indoctrination of a particular
creed. This is where the UN Club
comes in. It is organized to study
the aims, problems and methods
of the UN." he emphasized. "By
studying the problems and the
opinions of member nations, we
gain understanding and learn to
practice tolerance. It would ap-
pear that the Peace Council could
do no more than the UN Club is
doing today."

All compus 'debaters are eligible

Michigan, Ohio
Band Rivalry
Twenty-five weary Blue and
White bandsmen arrived in To-
ronto last night after a weekend
at the University of Michigan in
Ann Arbour. They saw: Michigan
beat Ohio State; the renowned
Ohio State and Michigan March-
ing Bands: Yost Stadium in Ann
Arbour filled with 95.000 football
fans; and one of the most up-to-
date and beautiful campi in the
States.
Of the Michigan band they were
imanimous in their praise, "It was
great entertainment and their
marching rivaled the game in in-
terest." stated Jim Gutliro, Direc-
tor of the Blue and White Band.
The afternoon was like a "Roman
Carnival brought up to -date", he
added,
Tlie efforts of the two bands
were intensified because there lias
been a long-standing rivalry be-
tween them as there has been I be
two football teams. Instead of
entering the field at the usual kill-
ing pace of 180 paces a minute. .
both bands were doing about 200
paces a minute, which is a little
over three paces a second.
The test came at half time as
both teams tried to outdo the
other m intricate and novel for-
By JERKY BROWN
mations. Michigan's efforts were
spectacular as they marched on in
a steamboat formation to the tune
of "There's No Busines.s Like Show
Business", They •'floated" down the
field to the strain of "Old Man
River", formed into a bow and
arrow, and as they broke into "In-
dlan Love Call" the arrow was
-shot" down the field. The arrow
then reversed its direction and
pierced the heart which had mean-
while reformed from the bow.
The next part of their show was
a gigantic soldier which "marched"
down the field. The legs of the
soldier crossed and recrossed to
the tune of "This is the Army
Mr. Jones"' as it proceeded down-
field.
The climax was a "march-
dance" as the band played "Be-
gin the Beguine". Tlieir adapta-
tion of Cole Porter's old favorite
wa sa piece of musical and march-
ing wizardry.
The game was a new and inter-
esting spectacle to most of the
Blue and White Band. They were
stationed right down on the field
but were allowed to wander over
to the stadium to get the best van-
tage point. The U. of M. which was
the Rose Bowl champion last year
put on a sterling defensive show to
shutout the favoured Ohio State
7-0. A few of the things that
seemed strange to the Canadians
were the four down system, the
lack of distance kicking and the
distressmg lack of female cheer-
leaders.
The Toronto bandsters, who
were met at Detroit by a special
bus. were taken to Ann Arbour
where they were quartered in one
of the newest and most modem
dormitories in the continent. Each
room was supplied with a phone
and washbasin and each corridor
composed of about ten rooms was
supplied with an individual com-
mon room complete with modem
furniture, and a piano.
Most of the Blue and Wliite
band members felt that the trip
had been a succe.'is. The sight of
the Michigan Band was worth the
Clip some of them thought, al-
though one band member was
heard to say. "I wouldn't have the
gumption to go out and march
like that."
trative Council was asked to get
four students to help with the
parking lots, and as a result there
were students from practically
every faculty working on Saturday
afternoon. Some started work at
10 a.m. when they took over the
barricades blocking off the front
campus. The Grey Cup Float
Parade broke up on the front cam-
pus around noon, and with the help
of the police the parking area was
cleared well before game time.
Last year All Varsity Aid col-
lected ?500 in a combined park-
ing and tagging scheme on the
Grey Cup day. This Asian Aid
campaign this year could not col-
lect as much as they did not tag
and could not use the Trinity back
campus for parking because of the
soft gi-ound. Armsirong said.
So far around S:J75 has been col-
lected, with money to come from
the' four lots operated by the Wo-
mens' Athletic Association and by
St, Mike's.
Denis Lane. H Vic. was nearly
run over while parking cars on
Little Vic field when he did not
watch where he was going. Lane es-
caped with a slight shaking.
Literature
Of Jews
Discussed
Last night Dr. Israel Knox. Pro-
fessor of Philosophy at the Univer-
sity of the City of New York, spoke
at the first lecture of the Hillel
House Lecture Series. His topic
was "Jewish Authors and Charac-
ters." The books he chose con-
cerned Jewish topics, but not all
the authors were Jews; he chose
central episodes in these books to
disciiss.
'The first book he chose was one
of Franz Werfel's earlier works,
■'Hearken Unto the Voice," The
first two chapters are too literal,
but the descriptions of Palestine
are unique in their grandeur, said
Dr. Knox. He then preceeded to
discuss the incident from which
the book takes its title. The pro-
phet Jeremiah asked Kins Zede-
kiah to release all the slaves as it
was the Sabbatical year. Zede-
kiah was at war, however, and was
afraid to enrage his war lords,
whereupon Jeremiah cried, "S^de-
kiah, you think you are arguing
with me. the tongue and the lips
are mine, but the voice is the voice
of God." Dr. Knox claimed that
this may be regarded as an eth-
ical representation of what is best.
Of course we must differentiate
between the voices of God and the
Devil, for example in secular
philosophy ,— Gandhi and Roose-
velt being the voices of God. and
Hitler the voice of the devil.
Dr. 'Knox also discussed one of
Sholen Asch's earlier book.s, "Kid-
dush Ashem," dealing with Jew-
ish community life in the seven-
teenth century. During the wars
between the Cossacks and the
Poles in Europe, a few people
underwent humiliation to obtain
a synagogue for their people, but
these people felt the pain was ir-
irrelevant and did not feel it
physically.
The third book he chose was
Joseph Opotashi's "When Paland
Fell." "These stories deal with
the psychological resonance that
is brought fortli in everyone by
suffering," said Dr. Knox. Dr.
Knox's point was that, althougli
millions of Jews who perished in
the death chambers were not giv-
en the choice of fleeing to safe-
ty, but died without a choice, they
should still be considered martyrs,
for it is the total life of the maa
that counts, not the way in which
he sptnt the last few minutes of
his life.
The fourth book he chose waa
Maurice Samuel's "The World ot
Sholom Aleichem." The book Is
written as a novel, but the charac-
ters are all taken from Sholom
Aleichem, the master wit. "This
book." said Dr. Knox, "gives every
Jew who reads it a feeling ol
spliitual beloofflng."

Dr. Etienne Gilson
By PEARL PARNES
-I like detective stories. Peter
Chcyney's death was a great loss
to the world of the intellect. He
■was a great metaphysician." Dr.
Etienne Gilson's eyes twinkled.
This professor, who has lectured
fit most of the ffreat universities
of the world, is one of tlie loremosf
philosophers living today. At pres-
ent he is director of the Institute
of Medieval Studies at Toronto,
the only one of its kind in the
-world, and Professor of the History
of Medieval Philosopl?y at St.
Miciiael's College.
A recent "Who's Who" cited
Prof. Gilson as "the first Canadian
to be chosen as Gifford lecturer at
' the University of Aberdeen". He
beamed when told about it. "I
certainly won't protest. I'm here
tor good now." Paris has first claim
on his birth, however, and she
has recognized his genius by aU
sorts of awards. He was created
Chevalier. Legion ol Honour, In
i935 (a citation comparable to the
British knighthood), and is a
member of the French Academy. '
Serving as an officer in the
French Army, and later a prisoner
of war, was not sufficient for Prof.
Gilson. Following th^ first World
War, despite all the warnings of
his friends, the French govern-
ment, and the insurance companies
that refused to insure him, he
joined the Nansen Relief Com-
mittee for Russia. For six weeks he
distributed food and tried to re-
lieve the needs of stan'ing Russian
children.
"It was a time of dreadful fa-
mine and drought. Children were
dying everywhere. The schools
were empty except for dead chil-
dren. War itself is not as bad."
In 1928, St. Michael's College
wanted to organize an institute to
study the Christian civilization of
the Middle Ages under all its
various aspects, literature, art,
theology, philosophy and social,
political and economic problems.
Prof. Gilson was approached,
thought it was a magnificent idea,
and came out to help.
Editions of works by such giants
as St. Thomas Aquinas and St.
Augustine are prepared by the In-
stitute, maiy of which are used
by students as textbooks.
■ "We would publish more if we
had the money," is Prof. Gilson's
only complaint. "We have the
brains. All' we need is financial
support. It is easier to get money
for a swimming pool than a schol-
arly book."
Professor Gilson adnUtted that
it would probably be easier to get
the money in Europe, particularly
because of cheaper publication
costs.
"There is an old tradition of
scholarship in Europe. But I take
strong excepUon to the view that
the emphasis on this side of the
water is on the material. True,
the material side of life is better
organized here than in Europe, but
the interest in the other realm of
life is lively."
Intellectually. the European
range of interest is wider. Prof.
Gilson mused. "But socially speak-
ing, the Canadian or American is
more developed, particularly in
such things are organizing meetings
and conferences". The education
tradition of the Old Country is
•'the best way to spare the child
Is to make him learn as much as
possible as soon as possible." Latin
grammar is often taught in one
week. Then, basic education over,
specific training can be begun,
usually at the age when we here
are only getting "warmed up."'

With It I can listen to London"

without the slightest effort. Here
broadcasters work on the assump.
tion that people are stupid and in,
terested in stupidities. TTiis is not •
true. Good jazz makes fine listen-
ing, but enough is enough." He
stressed the need for the Univer-
sity to use radio to enlarge it^
field of activity, to teach every
province and person in Canada.
This one-time professor at Paris,
Rome, Oxford, Cambridge, almost
ad infinitum, really is sincere in
liking good jazz. His main "hobby"
is to work; rivalling this iS" listen-
ing to music. "Fortunately for niy
contemporaries," he chuckled, "i
play nothing myself. But I despise
no music, if well-played and hon-
estly written."

sesses one of the finest minds
working today, stress the over-all
import.ance of the study of philo-
sophy. "It gives a general culture
and keenness of mind taught by
nothing else."
He had some interesting com-
ments on the place of women
among the greats in any field.
'■There has never been a truly
great woman painter, philosopher
or musician. Many have- been good,
but there has been no Mozart or
Michelangelo so far. But there is
no evidence that creation on the__
highest possible level is not possible
for them."
"And the mature and brilliant
philosopher has some advice for
students in his own field. "Don't
mistrust yourselves. Work —
philosophy has to be learned. And
then, wait until you are forty years
old to know if you have a personal
philosophical life and Ideas."

has not been a good ysar for campus shows. Both Vie
'^""inissed the boat, and Skule Nite was a sad. sad affair. It was

^ pieft^ ^.^y takes the ribbon for the most entertaining camprus
-SZnd. Annual production of Dentautics was not a polished
"^^t was hardly original. And lilce most amateur productions
gho*- ijushei of faults. It had a slow, leisurely -pace which infuriated
it m t'^^ ^ ^'"^ (pauses between numbers, for example). I still
fjie !5°tliat show orchestras shouldn't sound like dance bands — and
^ lA complement a show rather than be a power unto themselves.
^^i cheated by skits like rootball Hero which stand (and fall)
^ ^f^iv on one joke. And while I understand that the show I saw on
^"^ rday night had already been streamlined by a generous jettisoning
^*^pxce?s material, the blue pencD, could still have been used to
oi „tjige. The singing chorus and I suffered through a rendition of
^te-. they couldn't keep up the front of being a chorus — I was
. sit still by people sitting near me.
J could go on on in this fashion. Why then, with all its
was Dentantics .the year's most entertaining siiow? The answer
faults,
■ is probably that it used its talent to advantage, and kept
within the limits of that talent. A good example of this was the
chorus
; line. These girls won't win any dancing or beauty contests —
but their routine was simple, one they could handle. Even the ^ fact
that they didn't keep in step with each other from time to time
was forgotten because they had life, they smiled, and they looked
. they were having a good time.
Queen's Park Capers, the number in which I squirmed through
the singing chorus, and was cheered up by the dancing chorus, had
another act I thoroughly enjoyed. Jean Britten gets the title of
The Girl With The Most Expressive Legs for her opus with Bill Dover
on a P^'"^ bench. There was no dialogue in Queen's Park C^icrs^
just delightful nonsense like Miss Britten and her legs,
pave Engle's Pantomime was fun, but too long.
Ordinarily the laymen in an audience (like me in a DenUntlcs
showi is left pretty cold by take-offs on professors. Whoever waa
lesponsible for A Bit Off the mesial .or The Boot Has No Character
^Mnaged to write a skit that apparently did its job as far as professors
are concerned. More important though — it also managed to be very
fuiuiy to the uninitiated. Much of the credit goes to John Armltage'a
presentation of Dr. Jacltson. *
Tennessee Williams has re^iched a point in his theatrical develop-
ment -s'here people axe beginning to take him pleasantly to pieces in
small campus shows. Dentantics' more or less cleaned up version of
Streetcar was loosely written, and ultimately unsuccessful, but in spite
of this it was often funny. Particularly good here were Eteve Engle aa
Stan and Julie Sherman as StclLa. Bill Dover's Mitcli was effective.
Blanche was played by Ruth Tolman. THe skit incidentally, was called
Death of a Streetcar.
Littler Than Little Egypt used the old business of clumsy male
dancers. It was very entertaining — the dance by Statue Prances
Plndlay was perhaps a little long, but the business carried on by the
male dancers kept the npmber moving.
I like Dentantics of 195L Its. sets weren't as good as oUier shows
this year. It had no outstanding highlights such as each of the other
shows had. Its music wasn't original (but was well presented by
arranger Howard Hasenpflug). It had no machines, no elaborate
production members, no really startling staging.
But Director Mai Yasny and those who helped produce Dedktntlcs
gave us something that none of the other campus shows was able to
produce — a standard level of perfonnance maintained (with a couple
of glaring exceptions) from beginning to end. That standard may not
have been tenibly high, but It was at the level where entertainment

Hambourg and Kresz
The first in a series of cham-
ber music concerts was presented
Saturday afternoon by the Kresz
'lambourg Trio in the Museum
Theatre. Many university students,
too well acquainted with the
"dead" acoustics of this theatre.
ill be surpri&ed that anyone
.vould choose it for holding a
concert. Chamber music, however,
seems to thrive there — the very
deadness that is so annoying in
lectured and theatrical produc-
tions gives an impression of inti-
macy to be had in few real con-
cert halls.
The program consisted of works
in three different styles, A Trio by
W^nt A Cut-up
Haydn represented the late eight-
teenth century, when trice were
virtually piano sonatas with vioJin
and cello accompaniment. The
Trio No. 5, Op. 70, No. 2. was a
fine example of Beethoven's
mature style, with its return to
independent part writing and its
profound emotional content. And
a contemporary Trio-Serenade by
the young Toronto composer, Paul
McInt>Te showed one of the mod-
em solutions to the problem of
writing for this combination — to
effect, not writing for the instru-
ments in combination at ail. but
letting them accompany each
other in turn.
The Beethoven trio, the final
work on the prosram. is in very
regular form, and superficially
shows little of its significance as
a record of human emotion. The
performers, who had evidently
thought very carefully about it,
gave a special emphasis to those
a pects of its structure which re-
vtiii its emotional depth. In the
: hird movement particularly, the
ni!i_ldle section of the minuet, with
: -■ wierd shifcs to distant keys,
given a performance that was
p.ne-tingling in its intensity.
The technical difficulties of this
rtork, which Boris Hambourg
meniioned In his introduction, w'era
successfully overcome for the most
part. The Kresz-Hambourg Ti-Io
have set a high standard for what
promises to be an interesting
series of concert.s.

The Very Latest Things
in Mate Campus Mades
Men's styles for campus wear
are becoming more and more im-
portant, as male students leave
the dull field of student activities
to the women, and immerse them-
selves in escapist fantasies.
One of the more chic items this
year, for the athletic type, might
be called two-tone. The wind-
breaker is an adorable shade of
purple, and the strides black gab-
ardine. These colors match per-
fectly with any bruises and black
eyes a sportsman may be parad-
ing.
The trousers are caught up
gracefully at both ends, at the bot-
tom bv midget cuffs, at the top
by a belt, with buckle at back.
The overall effect can be heighten-
ed by the inclusion of a pair of
shoulder pads under the wind-
breaker.
And then the whole question of
Russian students coming over to
our campus has brought out an-
other style a la "subversif". The
highlights of the outfit are a tall,
wide-brimmed hat of fawn felt,
and matching trench coat, lined
with three pairs of heavily-filled
pockets. Knee-length cossack

SHAM Is Here
F€Pr Male Aid
A new campaign has hit the
campus. This one. in the now
popular trend toward initials, is
going lo be called SHAM— Student
Help for tlie Average Male.
No one is quite certain what the
money which is raised by SHAM
will be used for. but everyone
agrees that something- must be
done to help the deplorable stale
of the average male studeqt at
Toronto.
One of the alms which has been
suggested is the institution of a
Hot Shower Club, in an attempt to
keep at least part of Hart House
inviolate from women. There are
also plans to take over such key

Students' Council.
SHAM is also quite determined
to fight the Student Union Project,
since such a building would destroy
the last shred of masculine super-
iority ; the feeling that at least
men can bar women from Hart
-House debates.
SHAM is not going to descend
to such things as carnivals or
shows to. raise money; it feels it
can stand on its own merits to
raise the necessary funds. The
appeal will be to the individual's
intelligence.
The campaign starts immediate-

Meeting
Girls
Last week we discussed in this
column the problems involved in
helping the freshmen become adapt-
ed to the faster hfe on the big
campus. Too much emphasis can-
not be placed on allowing the
youngster plenty of time to be-
come weaned away from .his high
school habits, many of which he
might still consider to be "keen".
Today I would like to talk with
you about the freslunan and wom-
en. Any young fellow coming to
Varsity can hardly escape nieet-
infl- co-eds. Only the extremely shy
sp^nd all their time in ttie men's
room.
Picking the rig-ht girl is a prob-
lem and should the freshman ask
for advice you should accept the
responsibility and help him make
a wise choice.
Supposing he has to make a
c'hoice between tiiree girls that he
has met. June is soft and willowy
and pliable— the kind of girl any
fellow would be proud to take hoipe
to his father. Sheila is healthy,
robust and has a Nash convertiole
... the kind of girl that he doesn't
have to take home to meet father.
And then there is George . . . any
freshman who lost his glasses might
have made a similar mistake.
If you laugh at the freshman
and hell him that it is just puppy
love, he may be hurt, deepl.v. And
you should always remember that
old dogs from young pups grow, or
as the Hollywood starlet said: "It is
just as well to have a wolf at the
door if you want a mink in the
cupboard.''
. I would like to close with the true
story of Edgar and Mary. These
two grew up alongside one another.
When they were five years old they
played together; when they were 15
they learned progre-=sive ga'iies and
had a wonderful time, and by the
time they were 18 they had a deep
understanding of each other's needs
and wants. After a short engage-
ment they were married and are
one of the happiest couples that I
know, with ttieir 18 children.
space is always left around me.
Not only am I able to get a seat, I
get a double seat. No one will sit
beside me.
And when I'm in a car on a
long trip. As a rule I am made to
drive, even though I do not possess
a driver's licence, while everyone
else, sometimes ten or twelve of
them, crowd into the back scat.
"We want to give you enough room
to signal turns," they explain,
although they know I never open
the windows. On several occasions,
I have been asked to stop the car,
then kicked out on the side of the
road. When this happens I don't
get any explanation at all,
But I could have put up with
these little idiosyncracies of my
companions . indefinitely, and it
looked as if I may have had to.
But one day I met a girl. Let me
tell you about it.
It was high on a windy hill. I
was wandering alone, as usual,
through heath, gorse and heather
out near Scarboro Bluffs. I
struggled to the top of a little rise
and the wmd rose to almost
cyclone force. Suddenly, i saw her.
She was everything I had ever
hoped to find in a girl: hair, eyes,
teeth, complexion. She had two
of the prettiest legs^ I had ever
seen, two alabaster arms, two
laughing blue eyes, two, etc., etc.
The wind pressed her ihodish
tweeds against her lithe, young
body. She smiled; I smiled. Slie said
"H^lo". I stammei-ed some inane
reply. We chatte<l; the weather, the
heather, the gorse, of course. Need I
tell you, dear Gigolo Jim, that we
made a date? We were to have din-
ner, just we two, at the Asbestos
Grill, then on to a show at the Ace
in downtown Toronto. Oh what a
gay. mad, enchanting evening it
was to have been.
But something happened. Some
curse prevented her healthy out-
door personality lron;i manfesting
itself in tfie artificial glare of the
cafe society's worid. the world to
which I- desperately longed to be-
long.
She kept, me at arm's distance,
or a little more. She picked at her
rows down from me at the Ace.
She insisted in taking the street
car ahead of mine on the way
home. And at once, she blew a
kiss t.o me from her wii dow. Tlie
window was closed, I never even
got on the porch.
Gigolo Jim, what can I do? I
don't tnind walking 20 miles when
my acquaintances kick me out of
the car, I rather enjoy the power
I have which enables me to get a
seat on even the Wellesley bus. But
Gigolo Jim il'm not getting too
familiar, am I?). I must know
what is keeping Permentia and I
-apart. Please tell me what I can
do.
Worried,
ni Pass.
Dear Worried:

Dear Gigolo Jim:
What am i to do?

Roger, IV Nursing
Dear Roger:
Never have I seen a letter which
so poignantly expresses the true
torment in the soul of a tender
young man callously cast off by
seme designing woman after she
has toyed with his easily-bruised
emotions and had her way with
him.
You must realize, though,
Roger, that, the fault is partly
your own. This vixen wouldn't have
gone as far as she did if you didn't
encourage her. No, Rogers, you
must bear your shame. Perhaps
some day you will fmd some under-
standing woman who will make an
honest man of you, who will take
the both of you to her heart and
cherish you as her own. Have you
spoken to the Better Business?
They might be able to get you

THE VARSITV
Monday, November 26
By MAL CRAWFORD
Some 27,132 people watched the Grey Cup final at Var-
«ity Stadium Saturday, according to the ticltet wicket report.
Besides these paid spectators, there must have been several
hundred who hopped the fence or entered by other means,
judging by the numbers occupying the aisles, and many
others watched from various nearby buildings, until thrown
out by the custodians of same. Meanwhile thousands inilled
around on the streets outside in the meagre hope of a ticket.
In spite of the fact that the game was played in Varsity
Stadium, Varsity got only about 100 tickets from the CRU,
and the Athletic Association's usual commitments were
sliced drastically. Not even all the Association's staff got
tickets. Needless to say, there was no sale or distribution
among faculty or students.
Nevertheless, there apparently were enough, in spite
of the great demand, to provide the members of the Athletic
Directorate and the Senior Football team with two apiece.
With tickets going at ?30 a pair, it's very nice to have an
extra one to scalp. Not many did sell, of course, but that
did not make the distribution any more equitable.
In spite of annual reforms which promise to make the
Grey Cup ticket situation fair to all, there does not seem
to be much chance that this aim will be realized until foot-
ball officialdom really wants it so. McMaster, with an enrol-
ment about one quarter of Varsity's, got 400 tickets, we
hear, and were able to hold a sale for the students.
The tickets were divided on a basis of SO' !, each for the
Big Four, Western Big Four, and CRU, and 10% for the
ORFU. McMaster got its block out of the ORFU share. The
CRU divided its 30',,t among the Big Four (2000 to Toronto,
1000 each for Hamilton, OUawa, and Montreal) and the
West, with a few going to the Universities and other people
and organizations connected with football.
The West, then, had about 8,000 tickets plus what they
got from the CRU. About 1,000 people came down to see
the game. Where did the other 7,000 tickets go?
Argos, according to President Bob Moran, got 2800
tickets to distribute among their 8,000 subscribers. Thi^
includes the 2,000 given them by the CRU, so their share
from the Big Four, allowing for ducats for the team and
exeuctives, could not have been much over 1.000. Where
did other 7,000 go? The lion's share went to Hamilton and
Ottawa, since they came out on top in the playoffs (though
Argos tied them in league play).
It does not seem likely that many people came from out
of town, either from the East or the West. The best that
can be inferred from such a set-up is that Toronto fans
got a pretty poor deal.

Why Botherism
"Nothing succeeds lilie success," according to the old
maxim, and undoubtedly this is as true of politics as any-
thing else. But it is true only up to a point. And we suspect
that the overwhelming success of the Con.servatives in the
Ontario elections passed far beyond it.
While such support must have been most gratifying for
the victors, it may also have been a bit unnerving. For the
Conservatives are in the uncomfortable position of being
without an opposition.
Of course, being without an opposition is by no- means
a unique situation on the North American continent today.
In the United States, the Democrats continue to prove their
great staying power.
And at Ottawa, the Liberals have virtually a carte
blanche as far as the effective power of the Commons
opposition is concerned. Newfoundland at present seems to
show promise of being a classical example of the one-party
system in a democratic framework.
Even, or possibly particularly, at the University of
Toronto, the Students' Administrative Council seems to be
going its own placid way without any strong diversity of
opinions within it. This might seem relatively unimportant
in the scheme of things, but it is not, simply because it is so
symptomatic of outside worh'
But then, is opposition important? Conventionally, it is
considered to be the basis of the liberal democratic way of
life, which we claim to be oui' own. But if it isn't should
we worry?
One-party systems are easy and comfortable. They get
things done, and efficiently, and on the other hand, it is very
easy to do nothing when therg are no nagging voices.
We are satisfied with the status quo, federally, pro-
vtncially and even locally, it seems. Life is so full "of a
number of things, that we have convinced ourselves that
we are happy as kings. And we all want to be happy, thence
the "why botherism"
Tet there still remains a tradition of opposition, a belief
In the value of scrutiny and criticism. And we are still wor-
ried when it doesn't exist, but not too much. "The Globe and
Mail" has already gotten over its post-election hysteria and
shows signs of concern at the lopsidedness of the new legis-
lature. They don't quite know how to create an opposition,
but then, who can blame them. iVIore caucuses, less party'
discipline, they suggest. Possibly, part of the Conservative
party should be turned into the official opposition — this
is perhaps going too far.
Of course, the Conservatives are worried because they
■re not sure whether the Newtonian law "for every action
there is always an equal and opposite reaction" still holds
good. Or whether it is valid in political affairs.
The Students' Administrative Council is spared that
problem. Where there is no action, there can be no reaction.
Anti-View
Editor, The Varsity;
.According to the ob\iously
outdated inXoi'ination found in
the United Xalions' World of
AugUiit, of 194!), and in the World
Almanac of tlie same year, tLie
distribution of leligioua "belie'/-
ers" on this earth is something
like the following;
Roman Calholics 15
Coufucianists 13
Hindus . . . - - . - . 10
Mohammedans ........ 10
Buddhi^sts " 7-
Protestaiits 6
Greek Orthodox 6
Taoisf-s . . - 2

Tlie problem, Mr. Gonzales and
company, seems to be not "v\Ciat
do you believe?" but rather
'■v' ose heretic are you?"

For Christianity
Editor, The Varsity: '
I accuse The Varsity of biased
reporting !
My statement Is based on the
article on Thursday's front page
entitled, 'Engineers, etc. All Ap-
prove Russian Visits'.
According lo the st-atistics pub-
lished, seventy-two Engineers at-
tended the meeting. Hiis fact
alone is open to question since no
■po-sitive identification was re-
quired of tliose attending. While
the meeting turned out to be a
sounding board for NPCUS poli-
cies and ori^aai:^alion, a few min-
utes at the end of the hour were
allotted to open discussion of the
question.
If the vote was as close as re-
ported. I maintain that some
mention of the views expressed
by the opposition should have
been made.
The Varsity neatly evaded this
question by ignoring views either
pro or con fr' n a facultv of 1619
members and at the same time
going to great lengths to give the
views of a faculty of 254 mem-
bers.
Prom the small turnout of En-
gineers (4.45':, I several infer-
ences can t>e drawn:
1. The majority of the Engi-
neers couldn't caie leas ab„ut the
Russian Visit question.
2. The NFCUS does not have
the suipport of the Engineei-s.
Since the tuniout of engineers is
representative of the interest
£*iown in NFCUS questions across
the country, no further comment
is necessary.
3. Since tlie opinions of the
very few representing the engi-
neer were so nearly equally di-
vided, I would think that in all
fairness tlie NFCUS would have
tried to obtain a more represen-
tative opinion instead of agreeing
to a headline that borders on
libel.
I suggest that The Varsity give
more accurate newis coverage and
. not slant Uie news to its own
Ideas of wliat the students .■should
be told. '
It Is my opinion that the vote
reported in The Varsity is not
representative of the majority of
Engineers. They have a more
practical sehse, Mv co-operation
is available to any practical
scheme wliereby the true feelings
of the Engineers ran be aacer-
tained and re!>orted.

Editor. The Varsity:
Re.cently the traditional in-
ability of the OBC to please any-
body due to its policy of trying
to please everybody has blossom-
ed into a controversy over the
desurability of censorship of radio
programs. Unfort.unately the su-
'perficially religious setting of this
controversy has provided the
pmtagonists of boHi sides with
ample opportunity to gnaw mali-
ciously on each other's beliefs
and convictions all in the inter-"
ests of freedom of speech. I
would be most happy to leave all
this to abler hands than mine
were it not that one Mr. Gonzal-
ez, in trying to produce argu-
ments for censorship, has suc-
ceeded only in presenting a
travesty of Ohristianity. For those
who may have been misled I
would like to rectify a false im-
pression.
According to Mi'. Gonzalez
Christianity consists of a set of
infallible explanations of the
universe. Anyone who dares to
differ must be silenced, -the ob-
vious inference being that
infallible explanations could r
witlistand the least semblance «
a logical "argiwnent. It is idfi
like these that make it all t
easy for the independent thinit
, to miss the meaning of Oirii
tianity altogether.. But God lion
ours our intellectual difficultlt
and is willing to meet halfwa
anyone who is sincerely seekin
Him. "Come let us reason t(^elli
er, saith the Lord". Christ sai
"I am come that ye may !
life and that ye may have it niri
abundantly." Reconcile ihf.^
statements if possible with I
ideas that the Christian
himself forced into a crampi
tellectual world, having to ac«|
some '•party-line" collecfion
dogma. Rather, with Christ i
Saviour, the Christian
from the anxious and superiS
tious shackles that grip tlie i
man soul; he is free to exercl
his Gotl-given intellect and ■
to find t>he essential unity of '
knowledge in Christ.

industry in Iran and once it was
set up broke the agreement which
had been signed in good faith,"
Taylor said. "Now that the Iranian
government has succeeded in nation-
alizing the oil industry it is lyliis
useless and rotting in the desert
because of lack of technical abUity
to run it." he added.
Alluding to t^c naUonalizatlon,
Morden asked if Canadians would
care to have the U.S.A. control-
ling, owning and operating the
staple industries of Canada. "It is
even worse to be ruled by a com-
pany as a tyrant than by the gov-
ernment of another country winch
was elected by its people" he added,
"Premier Mossadagh lack.s what is
needed to make the oil industry in
Iran a success and there is nothmg
to do now but wait and our wait-
ing is playing into the hands of the
Communists in Iran" said Barton.
He also stated that the two-way
pressure from the fanatic national-
ists and the Communists put Iran
into an impossible position and they
had only to hold out long enough
to hope Britain will come through
and hope to save face.
Medcof agreed with the resolu-
tion, saying that despite the fact
that Iran was faced with the pos-
sibility of national suicide by cut-
ting off 50r„ of the national revenue
nationahzation of the oil indu^^try
was completed.
"Three driving forces formed tnia
decision— a tremendous religious and
nationalistic revival," Medcof added.
•■CommunLst agitators rosing the
people: and the pressure of the
nationalists 'Iran for the Iranians .
The panel of judges who selected
the winners consisted of Professor
W Field Victoria College: Father
J borsey St. Michael s College; and
Dr L Woodbury of UC. "A balance
of control of delivery amount of in-
[ormation, organization and expres-
sion in a logical, convincmg way
was necessary for the successful
debaters", said Dr. Woodbury.
Three more groups voted yesterday on the question of
Soviet student visits to Canada; two groups opposed to it;
one in favor.
Opposed were St. Mike's men (who defeated the principle
in an unanimous vote) and St. Mike's women. The latter
came to a decision after a close 25-24 vote. In the third meet-
ing held last night on the problem, Dents approved the
visits 11-3.
♦ St. Mike's Student Council Presi-
dent Paul Porestell said last night
that a brief containing his col-
lege's position on the Russian ques-
tion would be presented tonight at
the meeting of the SAC External
Affairs Committee.
Although he could give no de-
tails of the brief, Forestell des-
cribed it as "very complete and
verj' positive."
This was the second meeting on
the subject held by St. Mike's
SAC. Since the first meeting three
weeks ago. Council members tried
bo find out student opinion at
their college, Forestell said, and
came to the conclusion that major-
ity opinion was against a visit of
Soviet students.
In a Z5-H vote which represented
of the members of the two
colleges, the Joint Council of Lor-
etto and St. Joseph's Colleges de-
feated the principles of the Soviet
visit. Of those voting in favor of
the torn-, almost 75'';. preferred a
year-long tour of a short visit. It
was felt that a three or four week
tour would not accomplish the de-
sired objective as the Russians
would not meet a truly represent-
ative group of Canadian students.
The third meeting held yesterday
on the question, the Dental Stu-
dents Parliament, voted 11-3 in
favor of a visit, and instructed its
EAC rep to urge the visit be held
this year if at all possible. The
Dental Parliament also defeated a
motion making the Russian visit
to Canada conditional on a Cana-
dian retm-n visit, even though
Canadians might not want to go.
The Parliament felt that Cana-
dian students must meet the Rus-
sians halfway, and that the Sovi-
ets had already expressed their de-

Mr. Harris first identified him-
self with the Liberal party in 1921.
after listening to a speech by the
late Prime Minister William Lyon
Mackenzie King. He won his first
election in 1940, after 14" years' ac-
tive work with - the party, by de-
feating Agnes MacPhail. who had
held that seat since 1921.
Ill 1947 Mr. King, as Prime
Minister, named him as Parlia-
mentary Assistant to the Secretary
of State for Exteriial Affairs (then
Mr.'St. Laurent).
During 1948 and 1949, Mr. Har-
ris did background work on nego-
tiations for the entry of Newfound-
land into the Dominion of Can-
ada. Late in 1949 he did other
background work in connection
with the formation of three new

This article, the ftaal one in ft
series on the National Federation of
Canadian University Students, is
concerned with the a<itiviUes ot the
national body on the Toronto cam-
pus.
The main strength of NFCUS ha -
always been found in its local
committees on the various campi.
In recent years the NFCUS com-
mittee at Toronto has been particu-
larly .strong, at a time when most
campi report the national body
playing second fiddle to the Inter-
national Student Service (ISS) com-
mittees at their university.
Until this year, the NFCUS com-
mittee has been just like a minia-
ture Students' Administrative
Council. Each faculty and college
elected representatives to the com-
mittee, just as they elected SAC
reps. The Council was chaired by
a member of the SAC, elected to
that position by the Council vote.
As with all Council committees, the
decisions of the NFCUS committee
had to be ralified by the SAC.
This year, however, in an attempt
to provide closer co-operation be-
tween NFCUS and ISS, the two
bodies were placed together in one
SAC Committee, known as the Ex-
ternal Affairs Committee (EAC)
The chairman of the Committee
(this year it is Graeme ierguson,
IV Vic) is still a member of SAC,
and all EAC decisions must be rati-
fied by the Council.
However, the internal organiratlon
of the EAC is more complicated
than last year's NPpUS committee.
Two vice-chairmen have been ap-
poiiited: one (Joan Fresant. Ill
UC) to be in charge of NFCUS uc-
tivities, the oOier (Peter AUey, IV
Tiiuity) to take care of ISS work.
Tliese two vice-chairmen, along with
the chairman, make up the EAC
Executive.
Members of the EAC«are elected
I these replace the former NFCUS
rcp.s elected by each faculty or col-
Icget and non-elected, The latter
group are interested persons, who
are included in the committee in
■ference to the ISS practice of
i,jn-representative help. However,
provision has been made to restrain
the vote (if requested) to only elect-
ed members-
The worli of the EAC is done
through a number of sub-com-
mittees, which are in charge ol
such things as financial campaigns,
taking care of visiting students, ar-
ranging for exchanges with other
universities, end planning events
like the Carabin weekend.

By FRANK MORITSUGU
Movie theatre managers don't go in for philanthropy much, not
during office hours anyway. But the manager of the Odeon-Hyland
last week opened his«doors to U of T students for three matinees;
admission was a clipped ad from The Varsity.
The manager, of course, was crazy like a' fox. With a film like
THE LAVENDER HILL MOB. free admissions for a few meant wide-
spread advertising among many. Because THE LAVENDKR HILL MOB
is a delightful movie and you can't wait to tell other people about it.
Of course, there has been as much talk about THE LAVENDER
HILL MOB as there wa^ about TIGHT LITTLE ISLAND when it was
launched on its long, profitable stay at the same theatre. So you know
that it is the story of two amateur criminals (Alec Guinness and
Stanley Holloway) who rob some gold bullion from the Bank of
England, nearly get away with the crime by exporting the gold to
France in the form of Eiffel Tower models, but are trapped by some
acquisitive and innocent (naturally) Girl Guides. The makers of THE
LAVENDER HILL MOB also made that b^st of all British comedies,
TIGHT LTTILE ISLAND and its successor, KIND HEARTS AND
CORONETS. And like those two comedies, there is the same knowing
dig at officialdom and stuffiness, the same straight-faced satire of
Philistinian morality.
The most delightful thing about this delightful movie is Alec
Guinness as the Boss of the Lavender Hill Mob. Two yeexs ago, Pogo
burst upon us and made us feel that we initiated were a race apart
who doted on the Walt Kelly comments on the "human bean" types in
swamp guise. Now after a brace of superior British films, it is Alec
Guinness who we can be snobs about, 'superior in our knowledge of a
private leprechaun who brings us special joy. (But beware. Guinness is
booming a Big Name.)
As the Boss of the Mob, Guinness is a non-entity of a bank
employee who calmly and fantastically robs the Bank of England. His
awkward bobbing out of his benign superior's chamber is as neat as
the gleam in his eye when he is melting down the stolen bullion. There
are great moments in THE LAVENDER HILL MOB when so much- Is
said with so little: the solitary Guinness gesturing with the guard's
pistol in the bank van — Milquetoast doing a Cagney, and Guinness
making shadow rabbits On a moonlit wall during the vigil for pro-
fessional burglars.
But the highest point Is reached in tJie deft deduction of would-be
accomplice Stanley Holloway into this glamorous career of grand
larceny. The closeups of the GuinnesS: and Holloway faces, one enticing
and suggesting (but with complete British restraint, of course), the
other battling with a whole sea of emotions, make a magnificent
sequence.
In TIGHT LITTIiE ISLAND, crime (In the form of whiskey looting
and hiding) did/didn't pay. In KIND HEARTS AND (X)RONETS,
murder paid the murderer. In THE LAVENDER HILL MOB, crime
doesn't pay — Holloway Is nabbed early, by a bobby very good at pig
noises. And Guinne.ss is apprehended at the end, so there you are. But
you should see that sheila Guinness has nestling up to him, whom he
met during his year's stay down in South America before the Scotland
Yard manage to grab him. What Is more, when Guinness walks out ot
the door handcuffed, we feel cheated and resentful: there just ain't no
justice in this world
THE LAVENDER HTLL MOB should matte you feel very* good, ^
benevolent, congenial and perhaps vicariously sly. i wondered if some
opportunist shouldn't have stood in front of the- theatre selling lead
models of the Eiffel Tower to the after-show crowd. He would have
done a roaring business.
Yesterday^ ^hort viewpoint mentioned the opening of THE RED
BADGE OF COURAGE at the Uptown. Reason for suggesting that
large crowds Jihould go see the film this week is ihat this might make
this new war film stay another week. This would be a tremendous
triumph of Art over Com in the Uptown, traditional home of Mb. and
Pa Kettle and Abbot-Costello. In other words, if we want good movies
we have to prove it at the one place where it is felt by movie entre-
preneurs: the Box Office.

of moral systems and consequent
difficulty in believing that one

Dr. Moore asserted that many
students reject Christianity ^"be-
cause they have seen it only in
segments, and only in terms of
some particular doctrine or sup-
posed doctrine, which they consid-
er unintelligible or unappealing.
We must try to see the Christian
faith again in all its wholeness
and in it-s relation to every part
of life."
"Thus the University Mission is
a challenge to wholeness, both of
those who reject r^igious faith
and for those who have unresolved
questions about their faith which
must be faced as a preliminary to
greater understanding and convic-
tion." he claimed. "Our Chief
Missioner. Canon T. R. Milford.
through his training as a theologian
and philosopher and his long ex-
perience with several generations
of students at Oxford, is admirab-
ly qualified for helping us to meet
this challenge." concluded Dr.
Moore. ,
Usually there are only squir-
rels watching the students walk-
h»g along the Philosopher's
Walh, but lately some men have
been digging a ditch across the
vaUey and up the hill to Hol-
wood House. While the squir-
rels seem to have hibernated,
they may come back to the
north-east comer of Trinity when
the ditch is filled in.
SNATCHES
from St. Jamesi
The reports which were issued
occasionally last year from our
sister college, St. Stephens will be
replaced this term by intermittent
reports from St. James' College.
Students were enthusiastic last
week in heralding the return to
the campus of our bursar, Freder-
ick Feesmore, who has been on an
extended trip to Southern Prance.
His plane was met at Malton Air-
port by the school band and a
group of students appropriately
dressed in black and blue, our
school colours. As Mr. Peesmore ap-
peared at the aeroplane door the
band played "Daddy. I Want A
Brand New Car" and the faculty
joined in a rousing yell: "■Yea,
Feesmore. Yea, Feesmore, collect,
collect, collect".
Mr. Feesmore- was accompanied
by a friend ^from France, Miss
Mimi Ti-eschaude who will be his
new executive assistant at an un-
revealed salary. Immediately after
their arrival at Simpleton Hall, the
faculty hustled Mr, Feesmore off
to the lounge to give an account of
his travels and adventures. Miss
Treschaude was seen speaking to
a college police officer, something
about a new business on the cam-
pus.
At tbe request of the former St.

We noted with approval the announcement in the public prints
the other dav that one of the motion picture studios is to the process
of filming a Charlestonner's eye-view of those wonderfully raucous
twenties, to be apUy entitled ■■Anybody Seen My Gal." From the
sound of the title - and that is all we have to go on at this writmg
_ thU flicker promises to chropicle some of the glorious color and
customs of that fabulously carefree era which our generation never
knew, but whose fables and legends are continually betog recounted
for lis by our parents and theh contemporaries.
We hope the picture will not disappoint us. We hope the dSrectots
will include lots <* songs and dances, uheleta strumming, flapper cos-
tunec and the like. We hope the camera will take us into the speak-
easies and onto the raudeiviUe 5t»»e of that roaring postwar period.
In a confessional mood, we must admit quite frankly that we often
feel we were born thirty years too late when we hear the songs and
see the dances of that day. Five-Foot-Two, When You Wore a Tulip,
Hello My Honey. Down Yonder and the others appeal to us a lot
more' than most of the current hit paiaders. And we think this is not
just a personal feeling. When the stog-songs spontaneously burst fortli
at parties and get-togethers, these ballads are usually the first re-
ceiving tonsular exercise. Think, also, of how often they are revived
by today s musical ensembles and how they receive the pubhc's ap-
proval in the form ot juke box nickels and disk jockey playings.
There's somethmg about those old sonis. The tunes are very
catchy, the words arc easy to remember, and the rhythm Is contagious,
you'd almost think they were made for smging by a bunch of the
kids gathered round a piano after the dancing has stopped. And you
don't have to have a wonderful voice with a terrific range to make
them sound good; just carry the tune, relax, and let the lyrics do the
rest.
• In this non-connoiseur's humble opinion, they don't compose them
like that anymore. Today's novelties (e.g. "The Thing) are strictly
passing fancies, and nobody sings them much longer that that short
period when they are in vogue. Today's ballads, although very enter-
taining to listen to, don't often send you away singing, and when they
do frequently you don't remember what comes after the second line.
The folk songs i"On Top of Old Smokey", "Beautiful, Beautiful Brown
Eyes") are mostly revivals, and their only saving grace is that they are -
designed for community singing, where the audience is merely an echo.
One can't talk of the melodies of that era without thinking of the
entertainers who put them across. Yes, ther^ is probably just as much
talent about today, and maybe it's even of a better calibre than the
vaudevillians of the twenties exhibited. But today's stars use different
media. With radio, movies and films, modern entertainers merely per-
form to an audience which they rarely have to see or feel. They con-
sequently concentrate on perfection of music and elocution. They have
only as much personality as comes tlirongh beneath the words.
On the vaudeville stage, by tjontrast, you had to be a personality
or you weren't accepted. You didn't perform to an audience, you work-
ed an audience. As they responded so you produced. You got dose to
them, and you felt their reaction to everything you were doing for
them. They didn't care if you slurred your words or if you hit the

Gapitol Inter

"The Prime Minister has just
granted you a private audience."
Mr. George Fulford, MP, whispered
and there was a suddeji bustle in
the public gallery of the House of
Commons as we hurriedly scram-
bled to our feet. For 35 University
of Toronto students, tiliis meeting
was the highlight of a trip to Otta-
wa sponsored by the International
Relations Club.
Mr, St. Laurent's charming and<
gracious manner put us at our ease.
He expressed faith and optimism in
the future but stressed the necessity
of strengthening Canada's defence
in the interest's of peace. One iftu-
dent commented afterwards on his
sincerity and dignity of his manner.
Following this interview we went on
a tour of ttie Parliament Buildings
and saw the jSenate Chamber, the
Libraiy. the Memorial Chajpel and
the Peace 'Tower.
Undei- the auspices of Mr. Peebles
of the Information Division, we
were introduced to Mr. Escott Held,
Undersecretary of the Depart;nent
of External Affairs and other divi-
sion heads who explained the life
of a Foreign Service Officer. Such
things as r^xirts, insti-uctions. ad-
ministrative duties, competitive
exams and probationary exams
were explained.
Saturday morning we met again
tthe head of the Personnel Division
who informed us pointedly that the
fiist qualification of an FSO was
not to go to late parties. He added
that out of some 300 people"
plied for this work in ig^Q^'"-,

Journalists he met in wartime

Alexander -WoGllcbtt was a co-

served to make Ross a member of
the famed Algonquin Hotel Round
Table when it was formed in New
York after the war. As a minor
member of New York's Bohemia he
passed from one editor-ship to an-
other while he mulled ideas about
the magazine he dreamed of edit-
ing. In 1925 he founded The New
Yorker.
Many have written of The New
Yorker in its salad days, but few so
comprehensively as Mr. Kramer, who
gives short life histories of nearly
every staffer of significance: Kath-

soll, James Thurber, phiUp Wylie
and many others. In the process he
rehashes old Jokes recounted else-

But equally often he reprints early
work by New Yorker writers which
has become .deservedly famous, such

Ross, in starting The New Yorker,
hoped to found an American hum-
our magazine along the lines of
{*unch. Kramer's opinion of The
New Yorker's achievement is of con-
siderable value, for while realizing
its tremendous effect on the popu-

recognizes the attitudes, especially
towards humour, which may in the
long run be detrimental to The New
Yorker itself

Macquccn-Fope. Ryerson Press,
1951, S5.00.
Ross and The New Yorker is writ-
ten in the stereotyped, exaggerated,
but often pithy style which, used to
the point of suffocation, is char-
acteristic of much popular American
biography and often crops up in
The New Yorker itself in the "Pro-
files" of Robert Lewis Taylor. It
abounds in factual information, pre-
senting an uncogent but delightful
picture of an American magazine
and its maker during twenty-five
hectic years.

For 700 Pages
Walter Macqueen-Pope comes
from a very old theatrical family,
dating back to the days of the
Bear Garden of 1585. His ances-
tors appealed with Burbage,
Shakespeare, and. since 1720. with
the Theatre Royal of Drury Lane.
Macqueen-Pope himself has done
almost every job imaginable in the
theatre -world.
So, with all tJiis background, one
miglit expect a broad knowledge
and appreciation of the stage and
its people. Which is just what one |
gets in this, the latest of Mac-
queen-Pope's many books on the
theatrical life of England. |
Ghosts and Greasepaint goes i
back to the nineteenth century,
the "good old days" of the Eng- ]
lish stage, when actors were actors
and roared their way into people's
hearts, instead of "mumbling and
throwing away" lines in the off-
hand fashion the author attributes
to today's stage.
It is a thoughly delightful book.
Macqueen-Popes style is vigorous
and his memory Inexhaustible. He
tosses off amusing anecdotes about
names that were greater in their
day, or so the author fondly re-
members, than any contemporary
film star on the west coast.
Not only the glory of the stage
and private lives of the giants are
recounted, but the rigorous train-
ing which gaA'e them what Mac-
queen-Pope idolizes. Actor-manag-
ers demanded — and got — hard
work, gruelling hours, detailed in-
struction and practice on the most
minute aspeL-Ls of the art. Charles
Kean made his actors walk along
thin planks raised above the stage,
faster and faster until they could
do It without swaying or falling.
Rehearsals lasted all day. and
I often, if there was no performance
! at night, up to four or fIVe in the
j morning. There was no break for
I lunch — and nobody expected one.
j The book is obviously aimed at
the old-timers, the nice old gentle-
men like the author himself, who,
by ".second sight",- recall their
youth. Macqueen-Pope Is mildly
' troubled about the new generation,
whom he fairly generally classifies
as ice-cream licking, and cigarette-

MULOCK SEMI-FINALS TODA
Jr. Skule Meet Vic
UC Opposes Trinity
Trinity Edges EmmanuelL^'^'^^r'^
Earns Semi-Final Berth
By TOM BROADHURST
Yesterday noon the Trinity "A"
toccer team edged out a fighting
Emmanuel squad 2-1 in u fast, well
played soccer game un the Back
Campus. The two teams were
•venly matched, with Uie superior
linishing of Trinity paying off In
two opportune goals snatched In
the fiTit half. The 'nieoJesians had
numerous scoring cliames too, but
failed to make one good until the
middle of the second half.
The g^ame opened with Emman-
■el doing most of the attacking,
and keeping the play deep in Trin-
ity teritoi-y. But the lYinity de-
fence F.eld them out by consistently
clearing the ball up the field.
Then the Trinity forward line led
by Hugh Rowan and company got
moving and proceeded to score two
goals in quick succession. Both
were the result of playing with a
•lippery ball. The first goal came
when an Emmanuel defender mis-
kicked the ball in front of his
goal, and Tim Clarlcson swooped
In to whisk the ball into the net
for goal number one. Number two
came a few minutes later when
Murray Jackson Ifttched on to a
pass pn the left wing, anJ let fly
from about twenty yards out. The
ball slithered between the goal
keeper's legs, and Trinity were two
up.
Emmanuel attempted to reduce
the margin, but again Trinity's de-
fence came to the rescue, led by
Hugh Wareham and Rick Gaunt,
and kept the Theolegians out.
The second half opened with
Emmanuel pressing hard, and very
unlucky not to score when the ball
hit the inside if the goal post,
but just would not cross that line.
However their efforts were soon
to be rewarded when Bruce Van-
stone went in alone and took a
shot at goal. A Trinity defender in
attempting bo clear pushed the
ball into his own net to make, the
score 2-1.
Emmanuel continued to attach
but no more goals were forthcom-
ing as again the Tl'inity defence
proved a hard nut to crack, and
the final whistle blew with Trinity
moving into the semi-final round
against Senior Skule on the
strength of their win.

Br BKCCE MACDONALD
$11,000 seems like a great deal of money to most of us,
e.ipecially when it is spent for a hunk of canvas, but when
you compare that trifling- sum with the 130,000 some dollars
in ticket receipts from the Grey Cup game last Saturday
■nd then Valk out on the fields a few minutes before game
time and observe the results, you will probably conclude, just
as we did, that it w»s money well spent.
Coach Masterson of the Blues commented that he had
never seen a field in much better shape at any time during
a football season, and he was right. The ground was firm
and dry, but not too hard, to allow the cleats of a pair of
football boots to sink in for a good footing. The blanket
oVer the field had not only kept the moisture off (Athletic
Association hirelings pumped between 750 to 1,000 gallons
of water off the tarp on Saturday morning), but it also kept
the fro-st out of the ground, frost that would have made for
a slippery surface even without the rain when the sun began
to go to work on it during the afternoon.
As an ardent Regina supporter, we were inclined to feel
that Westerners were being robbed again until the last four
minutes of the game rolled around. Then, with the heat on;
Ottawa powered their way to three first downs to eat up the
major part of the remaining minutes.
With that tremendous pitching arm of Glenn Dobbs
finally connecting, any mistake on the part of Ottawa could
have been disastrous, but they played some of their best ball
for that four minutes.
K<;g'na ran head on into a lot of tough luck during the
fn-st half ; two costly fumbles, a couple of illegal interference
penalties and no yards penalties on two of Bruce Cummings'
kicks, rhen in the third quarter, the Westerners began to

For the firtt concert in the an-
nual Wymilwood Sunday evening
sa-ies, Bela Boszormenyi - Nagy
played a program consisting of four
piano sonatas by Beethoven.
Virtnally all of Beethoven's
popular works belong to the middle
period of "his creative life, from
about 1800 to 1815 (from his 30th
to his 45th year). This is the period
dui'ing which he expressed in his
mit^Lc the emotional storms that
most listeners associate with such
works as the third and fifth sym-

Pacifists' Policy
Not Yet Decided
composed between 1795 and 1800.
And in the Sonatas Op. 110 and
111, composed in 1821 and 1822, we
see him as an admired and re-
spected composer, who can look
back on his struggles with a cer-
tain nostalgia.
The program enabled the artist
to present in very forceful terms
his opinions on the performance ol
Beethoven. For instance, no one
could possibly doubt that Boszor-
menyi-Nagy t>elieves in playing tlie
j second subject (tf a sonata-form
movement in very free time. He

and many others.
Sunday's program was particu-
larly interesting because it ccmsist-
ed of works preceding and follow-
ing this great creative period of
Beethoven's life. In the Sonatas
Op. 13 (Pathetique) ' and Op. 14
no. 2, we see Beethoven still a
little unsure of himself, struggling
with his medium. These were

There was no decision reached
on the policy of the Campus Fel-

its roiandtable discussion in Qm-

In discussing the question it was
remarked that Canadians had one
experience of being ^caught, and stiD
it seems, tliey are* spending too
much effort and. energy to prepare
for war. A student added: "If we
have one gun, we are not pacifists

on Sunday. He leaves no doubts
that the details of his interpreta-
tion are part of a scheme which
presents Uie work as he thinks it
ought to sound. And whether or
not one agrees on principle with
all his views, he plays with a vi-
tality and forcefulness that car-
ries his audience with him
In the two early sonatas, Bos-
zormenyi-Nagy seemed determined
to avoid sentinventality in the slow
movements, by playing them fairly
rapidly, not too quietly and In
exact time. His fast movements
were freer, both In tempo and in
dynamics.
The hard, brittle tonch in which
he specializes was particularly ef-
fective in the brusque first move-
ment of the Op. Ill Sonata. In
the quieter more relaxed Op. 110,
brittleness seems less appropriate,
and in the tremendously moving
recitative and the slow movement
which follows it, the pianist aban-
doned it, playing with a smooth,
clear legato. In the fugue, however,
he returned to an almost staccato
touch, with the result that its
syncopations and rhythmic ir-
regularities received special empha-
sis.
nie Boszormenyi-Nagy concert
deserves to be long remembered
and argued about. The artist
showed that Beethoven's sonatas
are still living, controversial things,
well worth the argument and
thought that goes into their in-
terpretation.

What Pgice The Press?
The PrastitwMte
By WILLIAM GLENESK
Men must communicate. Does the end justify the means? Is the Press
free? Is the reader free? Or is U a free-for-all? In the last of three
articles, the writer looks for a way out of the brothel of prostitution in
the press.
Cartocri by Hugh Niblock.
Warm Wave
Snow is here afrai ,
When the snow comes, people change. Salesladies have
(iomething enthusiastic to say about the weather instead of
the usual dull commonplaces. Little boys are bursting with
energy and deviltry, while little girls are a bit frightened
by the prospect of flying snowballs. And the old ladies
patiently get ready to sit out the long months of confine-
jnent.
On the streetcars the change is most noticeable; even
men in black bowlers speak to the conductor without con-
descending voices. Friendliness rises in direct proportion to
the snowfall.
With the first snowfall comes the first faint fore-
snadowing of the Christmaw spirit. Its essence is friendliness,
iind people stop being just people and become mankind again.
Snow never appears but it comes hand in hand with "^^^^ Editor. The Varsity:
cold. But in spite of the cold, it warms people up.
On the other side of Uae distor^d fence hangs
the sign of the New York Times and its ke^ head-
line slogan: "All The News That's Pit To Print."
With its fabulous new.s-gathering army in the
metropoli of the world, the Times turns the world
into a city, and sets side by side human interest
stories from Cairo to Toronto and from all levels of
life. The front page is a .'^erles of cubes in prirtt,
a disconnected chaos of news tidbits spread over
the page like gobs of oil on water, thin, floating
islands -of news, selected shorts, that lift ^the-
reader's eyes imto the hills and leave them hanging
there.
By printing only the "news that's fit to print."
the New York Times tlrerefore must suppress news
it deems "not fit to print." And tliis most respect-
able journal from which our own home-town Globe
and Mail drav/s so nutcli, falL'^ under the fire of
Pilate's question: "Wliat is Truth?" and like the
Procurator, will not stay for an answer as it cubes
and condenses news.
To be "holler than thoii" the Boston Christian
Science iVlonitor Out-cubes the Times in suppressing
the news fhat'.s fit to print. Like Blanche in A
Streetcar Named Desire, the editors tell "what
ought to be the truth."" In a symphony of birds
and bees and animal; and trees, no liquor, crime
or tobacco, the Monitor helps Boston vie with
Toronto for the title of Most Moral City In
America. Its policy of selection is the ancithesis of
the tabloids, as tlie Chicago Tribune or the Toronto
Star. It revels in editorial prudery, honesty and
philanthropy. The Monitor is the white tower of
dailies, ill short, the saint.
Like its cohorts in the 20th Century's prostituted
press, these seeming hghthouses or missions among
the tabloid brotheld are as sharply fanged as the
other wolves, but the fangs are cut. As seen in the
Journal of Andre Gide; -'The camera's possibility
of choosing and presenting but one aspect of
reality invites it to the worst kinds of deceit." And
the news that parades as truth in a paper 'that
pretends to primarily present the news when in
fact it is propaganda, an incidental to the process
of marketing products, to advertising, that news
is abused, and plays the role of Delilah on every
stand. News must sell the paper, and is prhited
with a mass market in mind. Any Star ad in Time
or elsewhere proves the point.
The press is not free to print the truth, the
■whole trutli and nothing but the truth. There is
too much truth to tell, and much of it might not
sell. Therefore the reader is not free, as his horizon
Is bound by the printed page.
The hue and cry for freedom of the press is
OUR READERS WRITE
probably the worst witch hunt of the centurv
reverse. Just question the news of the dailies
listen to shouts of reaction that democracy \^^^
danger and the bulwarks of society are threaaten ^
As Dr. Harold Innis states in The Bias of
munication, just yesterday off the press. "Freed'^'
of the press has been regarded as a great faulwT*?
of our civilization and it would be dangerous to
that it has become the great bulwark of monopoH^'
of the pres.s. Civilizations have their sacred coJ^

appear from the world stage that like Sartre's
there is "no exit." Yet in the press itself "two road
diverge in a yellow mood." Though Dr. Innis .see!
little light in the darkness, as he quotes Laski't
idea of education as the art of teaching men
be deceived by the printed word, he holds a candi?
to the issue in a quote from Samuel Butler: "The
most important service rendered by the press and
the magazines is that of educating people' to
approach printed matter with distrust.".'
If. as the Daily Herald of England holds: -Ttia
chief function of a newspaper is to report current
■events and interpret them to its readers." let the
readers be aw^re that the eyent is mediated and
re-created in black and white. If the press niu.n
have almost unlimited freedom, then it's time the
publishers wielded a little responsibility with tliafc
freedom. Most of the top powers, from George
McCullagh to Bertie McCormick, Hearst to Beaver-
brook count far too much on their alleged infIuen-9
upon public opinion and on government, and over-
dosed with a tonic of megalomania, these gentle-
men seek and have sought to mould the minds of
the -masses, and in each case have failed. i>r
Gallup blushed as Truman swept to powe?r"
McCullagh blushed after a coast-to-coast taJk whea
George Drew and the Conservatives failed in tha
last election. The public's patience has reached tha
sticking-place, and it sprinkles the news and ths
editor's views with salt. The press has lost its grip
on the mass mind, And apathy is the result.
We need a Billy Sunday of the press. A prophet
to sweep out the cobwebs of distortion and prosti-
tution is the answer to the ramoant failure of tha
papers to communicate the truth. Submerged in
the seaweed of amorality, the press cries for an
"editors anonymous" to step in, and lift these
drunken sailors onto a sober plane of print
Evading The lissiue
Mailbag
If receiving mail is exciting then The Varsity is an ex-
citing place. Mail literally pours into the office.
We welcome this as an indication that the thoughts we
print have some repercussions. Letters that we might print
do not always agree with us. Often we print them because
they disagree. We print them because we believe in the dis-
fiemination of opinion, and because we believe that the publi-
cation of ideas is one of the best ways in which a fast-held
opinion can be altered, be it our opinion or yours.
Most of the letters we receive are written with serious
and sincere intentions. Unfortunately this is not always the
case. Once in a while a correspondent takes delight in send-
ing us a vociferous, damning letter without a signature,
pleading that he doesn't think that we "will have the guts to
publish it anyway."
He is probably right that we will not publish it. But it
is not a question of "guts." A newspaper has to preserve
certain standards of decorum and decency, whether it likes
it or not.
Letters are only printable when they do not damn out-
right without reasons. The essential criterion for a letter is
that it be reasonable.
The question of letters fti-ings us to the philosophy of
university journalism, which any university journalist must
have before he will be able to defend the words he prints.
Our view of the University newspaper is that it is on
the campus to preserve the inquiring spirit. It is a sort of
last stronghold of idealism. In editorials, editorial articles
and letters to the editor, ideals can be voiced".
Many letters that we receive — and this year'.s. mail has
come close to setting a record — ^we cannot print, because
our space is very limited. 3ut we do welcome them, and we
do attempt to show every pertinent point of view in current
issues.
"What happened to the CCF?"
This is ' the question that thou-
sands are asking now that the
smoke of the pi'ovincial elections
have blown away.
Mr. Rutherford of the campus
CCP wrote in these columns last
week condemning the LPP in a
slanderous way for saying that
there was a crisis in the CCF and
that its present policies would
only have tragic results. Students
wiU best be able to judge the truth
of the LPP's assertions by the re-
sults of the provincial election.
The CCF had 21 members in the
last Provincial House. In the com-
ing one it will have two. Does that
indicate a crisis in the CCP? I
would remind readers of The Var-
sity, particularly CCF readers,
that Norman Penner, when he
spoke here, said. "The policies of
the leaders of the CCF have only
confused, discouraged and divided
the people in Ontario and have
opened the way for the strength-
ening of the two old-line parties.'*
(Varsity, Nov. 16) The 19 CCP
seats now in the hands of the-
Tories illustrates, in a striking
way, the truth of that statement.
Approximately 140,000 CCP
voters who voted in 1948 did not
come out to vote this time. Why
is this? The LPP insist.s that it
was because the CCF, the Liberals
and the Tories were all agreed on
the fundamental issues in the elec-
tion, and that there were no real
differences between them. By not
coming out strongly for a program
of peace and caUing for a united
campaign by labour aganlst the
high cost of living and the threat
of unemployment, the CCP lo.'it
out to the Tories. Having wit-
nessed the passivity of the CCP
parUamentary groujj during the
past three years, workers could
see no reason for coming out to
vote for a party that was no
different from the old -line
parties.
Even Mi-. JoUiffe admitted on
the radio after the election that
the losses of the CCF were partly
explained by the "lack of a central
issue in the campaign." Tliere
were central issues but the CCF
evaded them and as a result paved
the way for its own defeat.
Campus CCF'ers arise! You have
nothing to lose but your reaction-
ary leadership!
Shirley Endicott,
Chairman, Campus LPP Clubs-
Intellectual Indigestion
The Editor, The Varsity:
In a recent letter to The Var-
sity, Mr. William Davis suggests
that childish faith be the only
enliglitened attitude towards re-
ligious beliefs. Intelligence, so use-
ful elsewhere, is denied a role in
the most vital field of all. People
then are children, unable to
judge for them^selves, and should
be treated as such.
Does Mr. Davis think there are
some beliefs that cannot at least
be discussed? Since when have
we become afraid to examine our
beliefs? And wouldn't uncritical
swallowing of ideas make for in-
tellectual indigestion?
The best way to erase an idea
is to produce a better one. Refu-
tation rather than suppression is
the method for meetii^ chal-
lenges to Christian ideas.
" "Tis not by guilt the onward
swe^p
Of truth and right, O Lord we
stay;
Tis by our follies th^ so long
We hold the earth from heaven,
away."
Where ideas are found to be
opposed , the sensible approach
seems to be to give each side a
fair hearing.
Wliy should Christianity fear
examination? It's been meeting
challenges for 2,000 years.

Mr. Bloom and I intend to put

Citizenship and Immigration thai
he will be hard put to answer with-
out exceedingly crafty footwork."
John Medcof of the opposition
said. "The present policy of selec-
tive immigration may not be the
most spectacular, but it is a sensi-
ble, sure way for increasing our
population with a minimum of dis-
location and friction, Siin.ply de-

enough. The opposition must be

lock, Blue and White PubUcity Di-
rector to the extent that the
President of the Engineering So-

Tour Plan
Reciprocity
Requested
TTie principle of having Rus-
sian students visit Canadian uni-
versities, and the University of
Toronto in particular, was approv-
ed by an official recorded faculty
vote of 18 to 3 at the External
Affairs Committee meeting last
night. The EAC report will ba
submitted to the Students' Coun-
cil tonight for ratification.
A specific preferential motion was
approved by a vote of 15 to 3. Tliis
motion asks that the National
Federation of Canadian University
Students be asked to execute the
principle of the Russian student
visit, and press for reciprocity in
all arrangements.
The motion states that a year
long exchange of academic study
would be preferred. If this should
prove impossible, then a tour would
be approved. I£ a two-way tour is
not possible, then a one-way tour
would be preferable to none. The
motion adds that the tour would
be preferred for this year, but if
this is impossible, the tour should
take place next year.
- The committee passed an amend-
ment to this motion that stipulates
that NPCUS should have no finan-
cial obligation for the Russian tour.
A motion proposed by the St.
Michael's College representative
Frank Olmstead. "that the EAO
should recommend that NFCU3
not undertake a Russian student
exchange at this time," was defeat-
ed by a faculty vote of U to 7.
Olmstead explained that his col-
lege was proposing this motion be-
cause It felt that the students
should support their representa-
tives' decision at the London
NFCUS, conference, and because it
did not want a split in NFCUS. Ho
said that NFCUS leadership in re-
lations with the International
Union of Students and in the for-
mation oT the proposed Pan-
American Union was too important
to be jeopardized by possible dis-
sentions in the Federation.
Olmstead added that it was sus-
pected at liLs college that the whole
question of the Russian visit had
been brought before the university
by a small minority group wh3
wanted to cause dissentions in tha
national group.
.Another suggested amendment,
that ISS be designated as the body
to handle the question instead ot

'Science and values in Moflem
Culture" was the subject of a talk
given by Professor John Irving to
the Toronto School of Social Studies
last night. Dr. B. K. Sandwell,
editor Emeritus of Saturday Night
was chairman.
One phase of the controversial
CBC broadcasts was cleared up
for the audience. The final three
broadcasts are not cancelled as
wos formerly believed, but were
stopped onl,v in Ontario for the
purpose of allowing some time to
the candidates running in the pro-
vincial election. The whole ser-
ies of six talks was carried by the
CBC across the whole of Canada.
The only exception to this was the
final three that wer^ omitted in
Ontario because of the provincial
elections.
In an intervied after the talk
Dr. B. K. Sandwell stated that
there should be the "broadest pos-
sible freedom" in regard to pub-
lic talks, writings and the like."
He feels tiiat radio on the other
hand is a mode of communication
that Is different from the rest and
that in this medium there should
be "reasonable controls." He al
so stated that he felt that the con-
trol exercised by the CBC in re-
gard to the broadcasts now being
produced was sufficient so that no
more "statutes" should be impos-
ed in this regard.
Dr. Sandwell has been criticized
for an article in which he was sup-
posed" to have supported the cen-
sorship that was advised by many
listeners. Many listeners felt that
the radio should not have been
used to air the views of the scien-
tists in fields in which they were
not supposed to have been qualifi-
ed. He felt that in this regard the
radio, wliich is such an important
and influential medium of com-
munication, certain slight restric-
tions should be observed to pre-
serve dignities of special groups

Through the haze of blue, green

Hart House, three - dimensional
fish made of revolving discs will be
suspended from a falife ceiling of
waves made of triangles of color-
ed paper. Along the walls will be
painted schools of 12-foot sea
horses and luige fish swimming
among colorful sea plants. One of
the monstrous octopi which has
tenacles 20 feet long, was so large
that it had to be constructed in
sections.
The decoration of the East Com-
mon Room posed a serious problem
due to strict rules of Hart House
which prohibit the use of sticky
paper on the walls, and the pic-
tures hanging on tife walls cannot
be removed. It was finally decided
to suspend panels of pictures all
around the room. This room will be
turned into King- Neptune's Tlirone
Room. At one end of the room will
be a 12-foot high picture of iKng
Neptune seated on his throne,
guarded by two seahorses, and
across from it will be a maypole
with mermaids riding around it on
porpoises and turtles.

Herewitii are pome comments
«n Mondays letter of P. M. Ange-

V> your report on the ESi^ineer-
tng "Russian Student' vote.
Mr. Ang(*»randt Is certainly en-
Wtled to his own views on your
reporting, twt a lew misunder-
•tood Items of information need
elariiieation:
1, Seventy-two engineers voted,
and the Engineering Society has
©very ballot. (One ballot was giv-
'en to each SPS. student, and to
nobody else, upon his appearance
at the meeting. Identification was
made by presentatioii of Regis-
tration Cards, or, as In the case
<rf Angebrandt, by recognition of
a known Skule face.
S. The meeting lasted 46 min-
tttes, divided as follows:
<a) 16 minutes for a description
of NJ-.C-US. and Its Inter-
national Affairs Commission,
by Syd Wax, including a brief
outline of events leading up
to the campus vote.
(I>) 6 minutes for the answering
of any questions about
NJ'.C.UJS. (and some of these
involved the Russian ques-
tion) by Joan Presant, local
NJ'.O.XTJS. Chairman.
(c) 2 minutes for introduction of
speakers, etc.
■(d) 9 minutes for a listing of
some pros and cons for each
question on the ballot, by
Ron Turner. Engineering So-
riety External Affairs Rep-
resentative.
(•> 13 minutes for a question
period on the vote.
Tte pre-publicity for the meeting
did not imply that the meeting
was lor the Russian problem
only ; f lu-thermore, no sensible
vote could possibly be taken with-
out a reasonable understanding
Ing by all of the background in-
formation. You shouldn't vote on
Russian students beinR invit«d by
tfF.CJJ&. if you don't know:
(a) what NPCUB is 'and many
engineers dont).
(to) why and how the problem
ha« arisen,
3. The ■ vote was as close as re-
ported. The VaJsity recorded the
results as given to the News Of-
fice by the meeting chairman,
D. eherk.
4. NIPOUS did not sponsor the
meeting. The Engineering Society
(of T^ich every undergraduate
CTiglneer is a member) did.
5. Although the arrangements
made were 3ast-mlnute. causing a
very short notice for the meeting,
announcements were made in all
four years. All Skuleinen, then,
(who attended lectures* were no-
tified of the meeting, which was
held in the lunch hour. There
seems to be little justification in
the statement requesting 'any
practical scheme whereby the true
feelings of the engineers can be
ascertained and reported'. The
secret ballot; at a meeting open
to all, is the best recognized
method of registering opinion.

standings have been cleared up.

Editor, The Varsity:
In yesterday's Varsity, Miss ShlP'
ley ISidicott attempted to explain
much too simply the cause of the
OCP defeat in the Ontario election
of last week. Simple answers to
.complicated problems are always
wron. and that certainly applies
here.
She assumes that our defeat was
due to the fact that we didn't corae
out for peace and labor unity. In
other words we refused to support
the Moscow version of peace and
unity with the LPP (Communist
Party). We do not know any one
cause which defeated the CCF, but
we do know that' these reasons are
entirely irrelevant. Had we done
these things that would have meant
the end of the party. Some of tJie
tactics used by the Communists
against the OCT in this election
amply prove that any sort of co-
operation with them is unthinkable.
In our post-mortems we have
merely suggested some of the reas-
ons for our temporary defeat. It
may be one or all of these, but has
nothing to do with the Communist
program of peace and labor unity,
(1) Many people voted lor the
COP in 1948 because they were op-
posed to George Drew and they felt
that the CCF had the best chance to
beat him. The central figure of the
controversy in this election was Wal-
ter Thomson, and believe that many
people thought they had a better
chance to defeat him by voting Con-
servative. This is a negative atti-
tude on the part of the voters, but
is nevertheless a strong factor In
elections.
(2) The Prost Government had
made considerable concessions in
the matter of social security since
1948, with the CCP prodding them.
However, this was apparently
enough to satisfy some people or
make them so indifferent that they
;tayed home on voting day.
(3) The Conservatives had larger
amounts of money lor propaganda

purposes than the CCF did, and
they used this method very effec-
tively.
(4) The figures point to the fact
that the union support did not turn
out to vote as before. This might
Indicate that tJie OOP should do
more of its work directly among
the xmion members than through
the union organization itself. Some
union men have already suggest-
ed this alternative.
These are not necessarn
own opinions or the opinions^
chito, but they are the varyin„'^
Ions of a iMge body of Qt§a%
porters. However, we have snt''^
defeats before, and -we have '
come-backs, which will k
again. ^""^

Editor, The Vai^ity:
Hereunder you will find an an
swer to the world's problem re: war.
Different persons will require dif-
ferent answers, therefore this letter
will consider five good days of solv-
ing personal war problems. They
are: Religion, Nature, Panatacism,
Channelled interest. Love of man-
kind in general.
Religion. Whether you be Hebrew,
Christian, Hindu, or if your re-
ligion is sufficient unto you. there
is nothing more important, then
your problem is already answered.
For in religion one finds the an-
swer to death and to the many dan-
gers which the world inflicts oti
you. Religion overrules the fear of
death or of wounds, and as a result
the true believer has no fear of war
which will bring no worse than these
two. No matter what you read in
the remainder of this letter -in this
I am absolutely sincere.
Nature. The person who is not
covered by this former safeguard"
from the horrors of war, may per-
haps find in nature the answer. The
greatest geniuses have looked at na-
ture, and found solace from the
mental torture that confronts them.
I consider that a man must suffer
to ever become a genius. Men look
at nature and sees the beauty around
them. It is good and they look far-
ther and see themselves as a part
of that nature. If we be a part then
what happens to us is good, because
nature is good. In this way a person
may answer the problem of war
(through philosophical considera-
tions).
Channelled interest. An example
of this may be found in a considera-
tion of the members of the "little

The current exhibition in the Hart
House Art Gallery consists of
twenty paintings by four young
Calgary artisxs. The show will
remain on the walls until Decem-
ber 9th. 1951.
The show has surprising unhy.
All the artists use contemporary
idioms, mostly to achieve a rath-
er representational effect. They
understand and appreciate what
the abstract can give visually and
emotionally, but realize the dan-
ger ol isolating painting from oth-
visual experience. They are
progressive . but not preoccupied
with their avant^garde'ism.
All the paintings have excep-
tional spatial qualities and an op-
eness suggestive of the western
prairies. All four artists are city
scheme which, perhaps with the | Euid a sort of transparency which
exception of R. F. Spickett's can-
vases does not tend to be stereo-
typed and sterile.
Gregory Arnold's abstracts are
the hveliest shown in the gallery
for a long time. The two oils "Ab-
stract No. 1" and "Abstract No.
3" have a great deal of plasticity,
mainly by the use of transparency
of superimposed planes.
Roy Kiyooka achieves the high-
est degree of a happy blend of the
abstract and a moody, almost ro-
mantic, painting. His evening
scenes of city dwellings depict
treasury of geometric shapes and
at the same time they suggest the
sleeping, tired people inside. In
is rarely found in the works of
artists living on this continent.
*R. J. Spickett supplies the larg-
est and most complicated canvas-
es. He blends the geometric and
the human. Unfortunately, in
most cases, the human element
becomes too hard to be human and
too complicated to be a compre-
hensive pattern. Only in the
"People of the Citadel" and
"Work" the human element gains
by being forced Into geometrical
forms.
On the whole the show presents
a very mature approach to art, in-
fluenced by both the American and
the European outlook. It seems
rather surprising that this blend
bould come from the West, rath-
dwellers, which explains their in-
terest in people, ligural composl- h;^^^;;^ burused* only "as" "

UNDERGRAD
Bigger and Better
This yeax's lirst issue of the Un-
dergrad has already gone to press
to the tune of forty pages —
larger than is usual for a first is-
sue. Some of t*ie advertising cuts
have yet to be received as these
were delayed -by a change to a
better quality paper which ne-
cessitated coarser screen cuts.
Editor Ken Jar\'is reported that
the style of the magazine is pretty
much as usual. This year the highly
successful experiment of holding
an art competition is being re-
peated. This was tried l^or the first
time last year as it, was found im-
possible to print an adequate se-
lection of the many art works sub-
mitted; it was also found that too
much of their life immediacy was
lost in the process of printing in
btacl^ and white. ,
So last year a new policy was
tried. Art contributions were so-
licited as usual lonly more so) and
a committee of judges was ap-
pointed to select winners who re-
ceived prizes which the maga-
zine was able to afford as a re- 1 people for articles, poems, etc..
suit ol the economy of not print- specific subjects so as to achieve
ing the cuts of the works. All the
works (including the winners and
losers), were then hung in the com-
mon room. The art space in the
magazine was now left available
for an adequate appreciation and
criticifm (which had been impos-
sible when the cuts took up all the
art space).
This year the Undergrad is an
anxious as ever to have contribu-
tions in any art medium by trained
or untrained artists. The prize
money this year has been donated
by the W.tJ.A. Editor Ken Jarvis
will have the entries hung in the
J.OJR. again where he expects they
will have the same high degree of
appreciation which marked last
year's show.
NormaUy nndergradnate literary
magazines fluctuate between the
two alternative ways of soliciting
copy — seeking as much as they
can get and printing the best of
what comes in; and asking specific
"THE NOTE TAXER iHiggins) : Heavens! What a sound! Ah-ah-
gh-ow-ffw-ow-oo!
THE FLOWER GTRJL; G&mi
THE NOTE TAKER: You see this creature with her kerbstone
English; the English that wiU keep her in the gutter to the end of
her days. Well sir, in thiee months I could pass that gdrl off as a
duchess at an ambassador's garden party. . . ."
Bernard Shaw, Pygmalion. (Transcribed in a certain tjqpe of cul-
tured South of England English.)
Direct speech, or speech transmitted into some sort of code, is
the only unfailingly exact way of cummunicating thought. Besides this^
a man's use of language tells an infinity of things ahout his per-
sonality, his intelligence, his social milieu and his entire upbi-inging.
Change his speech, and you change the man; this was Shaw's idea,
and many peoirfe would agree with it.
considering how vital langtuage is, it is surprising how little people
know about the mechanics of it. A speaker's most eloquent outpour-
ings can be reduced to precise scientific terms of sound, with its vary-
ing qualities of pitch and intensity. There is nothing hit-or-niiss about
the science of linguistics.
One's speech depends on habit and exercise, and the obstacle in the
way of learning a new language or dialect is largely psych<dogical. It
has been demonstrated by research that any normal human mouth,
whether it belongs to an Oxford professor, an African Bushman, a
Kentucky hillbilly or Charles Boyer, is mechanically capable of making
any human sound whatever. By careful training of the ear and the
organs of speech, a good phonetician can do wonders with any co-
operative subject. It takes a person with a better -than- average ear
to achieve perfection in a foreign anguage, but a moderately talented
student can come closer to this goal by phonetic training than by
any other method.
A simple, practical phonetics lab like tiie one in University Col-
lege may be equipped only with sensitive recordii^ apparatus run by
skilled teachers. Students are taught that if their mouth is in exactly
the right position, the right sound is bound to come out. They are
taught the rhythm and the pattern of intonation in the language
they are studying. They hear the instructor speaking It correctly,
and recOTds of themselves speaking It Incorrectly. They practise until
they start dreaming in phonetics. At regular intervals, records are
Wade of their progress. This was how Shaw's Eliza was trained to
speak like a duchess.
Naturally there has to be a solid backing of research for all this,
and much of it Is done by Instruments, One of the most Important
is the kymograph, which records the sound vibrations of the voice
iato an accurate pattern of wiggles in a white line. This way
phoneticians can detect differences in sounds which might seem iden-
tical to the untrained ear. They can also pick up fascinating bits of
information — for example, that there are usually -precisely five taps
or the tongue to a Spaniai-d's ti'illed double RJFt, as In "perro".
The intemational phonetic alphabet which has fcteen developed
-from this research can record on paper any human sound — including
coughs, gilottal stops. Bushman retrogressive clicks or indignant snorts.
A scientist sufficiently skilled in phonetic transcription (like Higgins
Pygmalian) can reproduce in script any kind of individual peculiarity
M diction.

cently headed "The Cornell Deadly

nell Widow, college humour maga-
zine, took over lor one issue.
The front page of the special is-
sue describes a student council meet-
ing ending in a brawl foUowmg a
proposal by one of the members
that each of the 674 bars in the
town send representatives from

neai's student councU, according to
the number of people who patron-
ise the establishment.
Taking full credit for the contents
of the issue, The Widow editors also
take a dig at faculty members, Am-
erican secretary of State Dean
Acheson. the editor of the Cornell
unde-graduate paper, as well as
drinking and sex.
Drinking is ihe subject of the lead
editorial in this mock issue. Ex-
plaining how CorneU students learn
to drink, it explains that they start
as freshmen choking down the dis-
tasteful liqulQ to show off. After a
while they are able to convmce
themselves that they are having a
good time. "Sham, all sham , tne

After pointing out the evils of
drink and the bad inipression it
makes, the editorial concludes: The

dents in active fashion and dis-
dain a shrinking violet role."
David Fry, IV Trinity, President
of the Macdonald-Cartier club staV
ed, " We feel that a campus club
should provide a means for the
discussion of the dominant poli-
tical philosophy (in our case con-
servation). We like to think the
ideas of the future are born in the
campus political clubs of today."
Shirley Endicott, President ot
the campus LPP Club, announced.
"We oppose the ivory-tower con-
ception. Students - are members
of the community and should take

life. Further, there are special
problems of students to be solved
in a pohtical way and campus
clubs should be active in their solu-
tion."
Norma O'DeU of the CCF club
asserted, "A university is a place
for education and the political
variety should be included. A club
should concentrate on the study

is more important than factional
participation."

Dandelions
Campus clubs are like gardens; both are beset by two
Confiiuting schools of thought. There are the formal garden
advocates whose main aim is to secure a symmetry of design
and orderliness of execution. Then there is the naturalist
school of thought which says to hell with the design, just
let the garden grow.
On the principle of the survival of the fittest, we are
inclined to agree with the naturalists. In a given amount of
(Space and time, only the healthiest plants will grow; the
re.s( will just fade away.
An examination of the Sludents' Handbook would con-
vince anyone that the campus is crawling with active clubs.
But this is far from the truth. Most of them lead a quiet
ghost-like existence; they cause no confusion because they
do nothing. They just don't matter.
We would suggest, however, that there are a few dande-
lions among the political species of forget-me-not campus
clubs. And the most hearty dandelion of the lost would seem
to be the newly formed United Nations Club.
At its inception this fall, the formal gardeners expressed
concern at the creation of yet another club. Some urged the
.United Nations advocates to join the International Relations
Club if they felt that way about international affairs. Others
simply tried to discourage them by saying that too few
students would be interested.
But the United Nations Club has disproved all theories
of the pessimists. In a few short weeks it has blossomed
forth from an executive into a club with over a hundred
members. Good organization, intelligent programming and
the zeal of its initiators acct)unt for such meteoric success.
In no way does it seem to have conflicted with the plans
of the International Affairs Club. Both have proved their
raison d'etre by the amount of response they have received
from the student body. Both hove capitalized on what seems
to be an increasing awareness of the importance of inter-
national affairs.
In the final analysis, the silccess of any campus club
depends on the capacities of the people organizing it. Of
course, there is an inevitable lack of continuity where
organizers change from year to year. This year's dandelion
may be a forget-me-not in a few short years. But as long
as there are some forceful clubs on the campus, this doesn't
matter too much.
As always, we congratulate the dandelions and ignore
the forget-me-nots.
. • Forget-Me-Soons
The University Peace Council seems to be a forget-me-
not of a different colour — almost a forget-me-soon. In
yiew of its rather colourful past, this seems rather
unfortunate.
Last spring, in a delightful, if undemocratic coup, a
group of Engineers took over the then communist-don>inated
University Peace Council. They received plaudits from all
sides, from "The Globe and Mail" to "Time".
This year they proposed to continue the Peace Council
now "reformed on non-party lines" and stated that "Peace,
the avowed object of the organization, remains the same.
The means to this end will be purified this year."
Now they seem to be backing down. Or so their move
to amalgamate with the United Nations Club would suggest.
Peace may be one of the fundamental aims of the United
Nations, but the purpose of the UN Club has been to study
all the aspects of international affairs as seen through
United Nations eyes.
While we would be the last to urge a club to continue
H« existence, if such a continuance seems to pointless to
its executive, it seems regrettable that such is the case.
It almost looks as if only communists are capable of organiz-
ing a club with peace as its one and only interest.
In short, this year's University Peace Council would
appear to be not only pacific, but passive. Their only positive
mova aeems to be dissolution.
PJitor, The Varsily:
Oa Novembei- 22nd, we listened to a speech by
the Very Reverend Trivett, Dean of the Holy Trin-
ity Cathedral, Shanghai, China. The topic of
Dean Tiivett's speech was "Life behind the bam-
boo Curtain," delivered at the UN Club.
To be frank about Dean Ti'ivett's interpretation
of the change which has taken place in China, we
were not impressed that he is a true Christian
seiTing for the cause of human brotherhood and
friendship. His many 'misleading remarks about
China have achieved no other effect than to ex-
cite hatied between the pepoles of Canada and
China.
On the other hand, one could hardly blame Dean
Trivett for his hostile attitude towards New China.
The Dean has hved tiiere for more than 31 years,
but was there only as a pastor of an all-foreign
"congregation, most of whom were wealthy business
men, in what had been the foreign dominated city
ef Shanghai. The Cathedral with which the Dean
was "associated was situated iij the former British
Concession, as he described it. "—a magnificent
building surrounded in a beautiful compound," in
the business centre of Shanghai. Perhaps Dean
Trivett should also have nkentioned that Chinese
were, at oife time barred irom attending services
In the Holy Trinity Cathedral. The Dean obvious-
ly has had no real contact with the Chinese people,
he has travelled very little in China. His knowl-
edge of China is therefore n^ligible,.
The Dean began his speech by defending Chiang
Kai-shek. He said' the Chiang was an honest man,
but was completely ignorant of the corruption in,
his government, which is the reason of its down-
fall. And to illustrate this point, the Dean men-
tioned how only a small fraction of the UN relief
goods really reached the war-stricken Chinese mil-
lions; because of the black-marketeering and
squeezing in all ranks in the Chinese part of the
organization (called CNRRA) ; but we regret that
the Dean has failed also to mention to the UN Club;
that the director of CNRRA at that time was none
other than Dr. T. Tslang, who up to this very
heads the Nationalist delegation in the UN.
The Dean's comments on land reform are
very superficial. He neglects in the first place ^
significance of land reform with regard to mass
cation. Last winter, more than 20 million peai
throughout tlie counti-y, men and women alike
tended spare-time classes. The Ministry of Edii" '
tion anticipated that more than an additional ^*
million will eiu-ol during this winter. And what ^
the contents of tliis mass education? Besides lit^*
acy, the peasants study the local press, seed seiec'
tion, ririgation^^ maternity, and child hygiene
well as other subjects directly concerning the^
daily lives, '
But most unfortunate of all, Is the fact that th
Dean ignores the role of land reform in
transformation. Before land refonm, poor peasant
constituted 60% of the rural population and owneij
no land; middle peasants, constituted 30 to 3o%
of the population and owned 20 to 30% of the i
tion's ariable land; while rich peasants and land^
lords, less than 10% of the population, owned 7o
to 80% of the land. Today the situation is differ,
ent. In northeast China, for example, middle peas,
ants constitute 80% of the rural population and
70% in North China. The landlords as a^class have
been abolished while the old feudal system has
been transformed into a peasant land ownership
system.
Yet in spite of all this. Dean Trivett is convinced
that the entire Chinese population is overshadow-
ed under the dark cloud of starvation. Dean Tri-
vett insists that commodity prices are regulated
regardless of the people's needs and the purchas-
ir^ power of the currency. But contrary to all tljis
is the fa,ct that this year's harvest in China will be
at least 10% higher than last year, good rice har-
vest has been reported from the various provinces
of south and central China because starvation has
been checked decisively for the first time in the
last 50 years. Even the Dean admits that the flood
controls in the Yellow River Valley has been suc-
cessful for the first time iii centuries.

Forty Beers; Or NFCUS ?
Editor. The Varsiv,, .
I am interested in a statement
appearing in a letter in Monday's
•Varsity' by P. M. Angebrandt,
IV Mechanical:
"The NPCUS does not have
the support of the Engineers.
Since the turnout of engineers is
representative of the interest
shown in NFCUS questions across
across the country , no further
comment is necessary."
I disagree. Mr. Angebrandt's
observation may be to a great
extent correct, but further com-
ment certainly is . necessary.
In my opinion, the turnout o£
engineers may be 'representa-
tive of the interest shown' but it
is not also indicative of the lack
of knowledge (not information,
but knowledge) about NFCUS?
It's a vicious circle: the less you
know the less you care, the less
you read, the less you know,
etc. Although it may be a dif-
ficult fact to impress on the mind
of the average Skulemau, with
his crowded time table, — who
more often than not turns to mat-
ters Skule Nile. Skule Cannon,
40 beers, and chariot race in his
leisure time.— NPCUS. and all
It stands for is a good, thing.
It sums up actively in a con-
crete organization the basic
aims of most of us, both as stu-
dents now, and as citizens later.
By embodying cooperation among
students of all Canadian Uni-
versities. NPCUS puts Canadian
student opinion (that's us, broth-
er) on the world map.— And in
these troubled days the world
map, even on the student level,
is very important. The trouble
is that it's a long way from the
lab report due tomorrow to the
Edinburgh Student Conference
next January, and in a crowded
schedule, a lab report is going
to gel more attention.
The 'Russian Student' meeting
the other day attempted to dem-
onstrate to the several inter-
ested engineers present ( in 15
"brief minutesi what and why
NFCUS is. It isn't 'an excuse
for Artsmen to argue and pre-
sent their long-winded views in
The Varsity' (as I once over-
heard!; it's far, far, far. far
from that.
If we as undergraduate pro-
fessional engineers could try to
find a little time to be profes-
sional citizens also, (and that
starts by taking active part on
campus activities such as ISS,
NFCUS, the SHARE campaign.
The Varsily, Torontonensis. the
Hart House clubs, the UN Club,
and so oni we would find that
we as persons are needed, that
our opinions are valued. We
are not merely Skule exam-
crammers; we are also Uni-
versity of "Hn-onto men, and Ca-
nadian University Students.
If we could take part in some
measure of these activities, and
not sit always on th^ outside of
the circle, the actions and facts
which arouse our daily disinter-
est and'or our daily ire, would
all automatically vanish.
NPCUS. like the Engineering
Society, should mean something
to us, and if we are part of it,
it will. Then we would not have
to witness a shameful 4.5
meeting turnout, or a 35% by-
election vote.
This rather lengthy exposi-
tion .is not criticism of Frank
Angebrandt— it is merely an at-
tempt to put on paper the
thoughts of a number of us at
Skule y/ho have been fortunate
enough (by virtue of last Spring s
elections) to be in a position to
see where we at Skule fit into
the whole picture.

RESULT ON VISIT
Principle Of Russian Visit
Ratified By SAC Yesterday
The principle of having Russian students visit
Canadian universities, and the University of
Toi-onto in particular, was approved by a vote of
14 to 4 at a meeting of the Students' Administrative
Council held in the Mining Building Board Room
last night. The motion was presented by External
Alfaiis Committee chairman Graeme Ferguson
after the EAC approved the motion by a vote of
18 to 3 on Tuesday night, in an officially recorded
faculty vote.
Caroline Gratton, St. Mike's, said that she did
not feel that all faculties had voted on the prin-
ciple when a vote was taken in each faculty for
the EAC. She said that in presenting the motion
to St. Mike's women she had not been sure whether
they were to vote on the principle or on the fact
of the visit. Miss Gratton said that many who
would support the principle of the visit would not
support the fact. Her stand was approved by Paul
Forestell. St. Mike's, who said that while he
approved the principle of the visit, he attacked the
motion on the basis of a visit at the present time.
Forestell said that president Syd Wax would not
he given the united support of a strong NFCUS
when he attends the Edinburgh Conference of
western student unions if NFCUS is split over the
Russian question.
Forestell also said that the votes in each of the
faculties was a faculty vote and not a student vote
as in no case did more than 50 per cent vote.
Vice-presi«Jent Valinda Burruss replied that
there was never a good turnout of students and
that the majority of the students were voting on
the principle of the visit.
Chuck Haoley, UC, said that it would be an
"ivory-tower type of thhiking" to approve a motion
on- principle and not in fact He supported an
amendment deleting section (f) from a second
motion which stipulated that NFCUS*5houId have
no financial obligation for the Russian tour. This
amendment was defeated by a vote of 13 to 7.
The second motion was then passed, by a vote
of 13 to 7. that NFCUS be asked to execute the
principle of the Russian student visit and pr*ess tor
reciprocity in all arrangements.

Meeting
t,^ "■'■e will be a masthead meet-
it 5 the editorial office today
\i All masthead members,

^^rt cartoonist are expected
Trivett continued. However, In this
case the editorial deals only with
generalities, and there can be no
answer, he continued.
Trivett quoted an editorial article
in The Varsity by William Glenesk,
"The Prostitute", in which Glenesk
remarked, "The function of a news-
paper is to report cui'rent events
and interpret tliem for its readers
... If tlie press must have almost
unlimited freedom; then it's time
the publishers wielded a little au-
thority with that freedom."
As publishers of The Varsity, it
seems strange we (the Council)
sho_;ild be condemned by our own
paper. Trivett remarked.
"We are giving the editors of The
Varsity too much rein." he con-
tinued. "The Varsity considers it-
self* he only champion of the peo-
ple. But its criticism is not con-
structive. It has great influence
and little responsibility. This con-
dition is really intolerable." Trivett
concluded.
He also gave examples of work
the Council has done thLs year, to
prove it was not guilty of "no ac-
tion." Among the items he listed
was the prompt action taken after
the vandalism of Hallowe'en and
the reaction of the SAC to tlie
Ebcecutive Council's action, the in-
stitution of SHARE and a transla-
tion bureau, tthe plans for the All-
Varsity Revue, and the Book Ex-
change.
The Varsity also came under fire
for an editorial of Nov. 22, in which
it criticized the SHAilE campaign
for failure to state its aims before
it was organized.
Graeme Ferguson, chairman of
the External Affairs Committee
which controls SHARE, said his
committee was "very hurt" when
the editorial and accompanying
cartoon appeared. He said that at
the time the editorial was written,
the materia! It demanded was pre-
pared, and was awaiting mimeo-
graphing.
Rising to the defence of The Var-
sity. Editor Barbara Browne com-
plained that Trivett was quoting
the **Why Bo"tiherism" editorial out
of context.
"I a*m a fii'm believer in tiie lib-
eral tradition tliat the Opposition
is one of the most imijortant things
in a democratic institution." she
-said. "I- feel that there has been
too much material recommended by
conunittees \Uiich has not received
sufficient mticism by the Council
as a whole." she said. "This is
largely because the members are
not well enough informed of what
will happen at the meeting." Miss
Browne continued.
Regarding the SHARE editorial.
Miss Browne explained that she ap-
proved of the campaign, and only
wanted it run in Uie best possible
way. Wlien the editorial was Writ-
ten, she continued, she had attend-
ed the SHARE open meeting. ' and
had heard no definite plans re-
garding the campaign's target, bud-
get or aims. Oi^nization had pre-
ceded formulation of ideas, she said.
She added that The Varsity had
printed the SHARE editorial in ttie
hope of provokuig some response
fi-om the campaign officials, which
would answer these questions,
Concluding the discussion. SAC
President Syd Wax said that while
the Council was not objecting to
the right of The Varsity to be criti-
cal in its editorial columns, it did
feel that the criticism should be
constructive, and that both parties
should t>e fairly represented. "You
must also realize that the influende
of an editorial is far greater than
any letter which might be sent to
answer it," he added.
I At the end of the haU-hour dis-
cussion, the Varsity editor asked for
: a motion from the Council to ffiVe
I an official stand to the Council's
i criticism. No motion was forth-
coming from the members present.
"The fact that there is no motion
shows the aiticism wa.s meant in
good spirit". Chahman McBirnie
remarked. "It is just as if they took
you off in a corner to make their
complaint, except that here they
did it in public. I don't feel any
motion is necessary," he concluded.

Graeme Ferguson seemed determined by the look on hU face ia
drive home his point as he addre&sed the Students' Administrative
Council at its bimonthly meeting held in the Mining Building a few
weeks ago.
Dr. McLuhan Discusses
Decrease Of Literacy
Our modem technology is caus-
ing a decline in literacy that spells
the end of the printing press and
of the printed word as a major
form of communication, said Dr.
H. M. McLuhan. speaking on "The
End of the Gutenberg Era" at a
Hart House Library Evening Tues-
day night.
Thij decrease In literacy, noted
in Cambridge in 1929 at the level
of poor command of language, and
more recently -as even grammatical
Incompetence, was due, he sug-
gested. to less practice in the
spoken word. He noted that the
literary level of the popular press
— the equivalent of our pulps — ,
was highest in the first century of
printing, and has been declining
ever since — an atrophy of liter-
ary skill because of less vigorous
discussion.
In addition to this negative ef-
fect, he suggested the growing
tendency to pictorialize — to tM
the ideogram instead of the print-
ed word — instilled in the growing
child before he was taught to read,
would eventually reduce the prinfr>
ed word to a mere curiosity. B»
cited television, the comics. tb«
movies, and modern advertising aa
Influences which were replaclof
printing since oa this cootinent
children became very skilled
these pictorial methods before they
gained literary skill, the problem
was only to develop techniques for
treating all thought In this man*
ner; printing would become pnv
gresslvely less important as thii
was done.
While most trends in communi-
cation were not definite due to
the consUnt discovery of new
techniques, the present pessimian
re the future of printing, in con-
trast to the initial optimism, was
probably justified.

Guy Lindsay
To Lecture
On Waterway
Mr. Guy A.. Lindsay, director of
the Special Projects Branch of
the Department of Transport will
lecture on ' The St. Lawrence
Deep Waterway" to the Royal Ca-
nadian Institute this Saturday at
8:15 p.m. in Convocation Hal!.
Mr. Lintfeay has been in close
connection with all work and stu-
dies made on the St. Lawrence
Waterway Project since 1920. The
lecture is open to all and will be
illustrated with lantern slides and
coloured sound motion pictures.
The speaker wiU give a history
and description of the existing
Great Lakes-St. Lawrence route
and of the power potentialities In
this area. He will discuss the leg-
islative action which has been
taken in connection with this pro.
ject_ and his lecture will also in-
clude a short summary of its es-
timated cost.
Mr. Lindsay 'is a graduate of
McGill University and has been
m the Dominion Government Ser-
vice since 1920. first with the De-
partment of Railways and Canals,
and then with the Department of
Transport when that department
was formed in 1925. He served
as assistant to the Chairman of
the Canadian Section of the Joint
Board of Engineers In 1924-26 and
Winidpe^ (Special) — Serious
budget difficulties have forced the
Council of University of Manitoba
Student's Onion to cut its grant
to the National Federation of
Canadian University Students from
twenty to ten cents per student,
said The Manitoban in a telegram
last night,
The move to halve its NFCUS
assessment was made iu Wie face
of a budget which left the student
treasurer almost no operating sur-
plus on which to work.
The stipulation was made at the
Tuesday meeting, however, that
the full twenty cents grant should
be maintained if finances at the
end of the year permit. It was con-
sidered highly imlikely that this
could be done, considering the
financial picture.
A strong minority viewpoint held
that NFCUS could be dropped alto-
gether at Manitoba because it serv-
ed no function which could com-
pete with local activities of wider
interests and participations.
Nevertheless, most Council mem-,
bers felt that NFCUS was ideally
a valuable thing, but that, unfor-
tunately, the financial situation
would not allow full support of
this year.
The motion to reduce the fee to
ten cents came in the form of an
amendment to a finance committee
recommendation for a fifteen cent
fee. Council felt that a five cent
reduc tion (from twen ty cen ts )
would not go far enough toward
putting Manitoba student organi-
zation out of financial danger.
was appointed Chairman of the
Canadian St. Lawrence Advisory
Committee In 1940.
The motion, "Reeohred that thla
House deplores Canada's Immigra-
tion Policy," was moved by David
Pry, IV _Trin., and Ma<Oonald-
Cartier Club president, who cri-
ticized the "selective" Immigration
policy. "The Government still thlnki
small,'' he said, mentioning the
over-population in EXiropc, especia-
ly England.
"If the twentietii century is to be-
long to Canada, as Wilfred Laurier
once stated, the country needs a,
much larger population," he said.
^Increased population was essential
for economic growth ajid to fill up
unsettled land, expand home mar-
kets and lessen our dependence oa
the United States, he stated.
Honorary gtiest. federal citizen-
ship and immigration minister
W. E. Harris, defended the policy,
emphasizing that the policy waa
fleidble. bemg altered as Caanda's
capacity dictated, always keeping in
mind that immigration should "not
alt«r fundamental character of the
Canadian people."
■Over the course of years to come,
thb: country requires many mors
people; however, then numt>ers
must be spread out as employment
conditions indicate," he said.
John Medoof. IV UC, speaking for
the opposition, stated that the
present policy was not an open-
door one which admitted everybody
ind anybody. He stated that th«
gx)vernment was successfully tryinar
to fit each one into Canadian lif«
as easy and as quickly as pos&lble.
Bert Bloom, speaking for the mo-
tion, IV UC, stated that "Canada's
immigration policy makes us the
laughing stock of countries abroad
due to the selective policy. Mrs..
Eleanor Roosevelt says racial dis-
crimination is the weak spot in our
democracy — yet Asians (Indiana
and Chinese) are excluded now
from Canada."
Bill Dawson, rv Trin., said th^t
"Canada today is faced with a dif-
ferent immigiation problem than
fifty years ago. The great lands of
the West are gone, immigrants must
buy farm land now."
Speaking from the house floor,

'nast
vent of the push-button age, wc
do not listen to music with dis<^un-
ination. contribute something to
the musical experience, but wait
passively for it to 'hit' you."
In appeal to obtain a greater
attendance at the "live" concert,
and a less lethargic and apathetic
attitude to music, Kash began his
observations In the very beginnings
of articulate communication, speech,
Once man began to utter compre-
hensible sounds, and at the same
time felt emotions, there followed
inflection. Music, then, . Is one step
beyond language.
MTisic found its origus in the
primitive rhythmic patterns of na-
tive ceremonies, some of which are
^till extant, particularly in Africa.
Kash played records of Zulu rausic
to point out its complexity of coun-
terpoint, harmony, and rhytlim and
its strange intervals.
He then went on to briefly sketch
the activities of the mediaeval
schools of music with their rich
harmonies and emphasis ocn coun-
terpoint ra ther than the vertical
chord: the Flemish school even had
developed the fuga! form to sixteen
and eighteen parts! It was Bach
who organized music into- strict
form.
It is Hash's contention that con-
temporary music has revived primi-
tive techniques and we shall find
great enjoyment if >we listen with
our minds, exert the intellect and
not just listen. In 1910, Stravinsky
deliberately tried to go back in Le
Sacre du Prin temps to primitive
forms of music, though Kash is not
sure whether the experiment was
One of research or atavistic.
He pointed out how Dizzie Gil-
lespie's Bop has a remarkable simi-
larity to the Zulu chants. Later, he
made it clear that he was not pro
viding an aj-gument for primitivism
in music, but trying to get his audi-
ence to sh^re tJie reactions of the
composer, to feel and live the music
of our own age as the primitives
felt and lived the music of their .
time. Our music is not a part of i
our life, but something set com-
pletely aside.
Kaj*h felt the only barrier pre-
venting a greater understanding of
music was one of semantics, the
comprehension of such words as
counterpoint and fugue. He used
Bing Crosby's recording of Simple
Melody and Benny Goodman's
recording of Bach Goes To Town as
examples of the use of counter-
point and the fugue form respec-
tively in popular music.
He concluded his informal talk
by re -emphasizing the fact that we
must not be passive in listening to
music. We have to Icnow what we
are hstening for; we must partici-
pate visually and intellectually in
the musical experience. It is only on
this basis that music will continue
to be a robust, living ait.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5
Subscription Concert — Repeat performance! at Tuesday's
Handel's "Largo" through two op-
eratic arias by Mozart and Meyer-
beer and some Schumann Lieder to
a Strauss waltz. Her several encores
included German and Italian songs,
the Vesper Hymn and a composition
by a local musician called 'XJttle
Bells are Tinkling."
In spite of the fact that we were
pleasantly surprised at Miss Sack's
competent handling of the Schu-
mann Lieder, we still think that
she is best with her lilting interpre-
tation of Strauss waltzes. Strauss
gives her a chance to use her pheno-
menal voice and provides her with
a rhythmical backdrop which doesn't
demand too much in the way of
feeling or interpretation from the
artist.
The "bird songs" are obviously
Miss Sack's dish of tea, too. but
once we have gotte^ over being
impressed with tlie fact that Miss
Sach can rise to P in- altissimo, F
sharp and even high G, then her
lack of feeling and mechanical vir-
tuosity give the concert-goer no
other alternative but to clas^her as
possessing a phenomenal voice but
certainly not as being an artist.
By tliis we don't mean that Miss
Sack can't sing, because she can.
and her pitch is perfect. We just
contend that from the beginning to
the end, her lack of stage presence
and her unsympathetic interpreta
tion of the arias did not impress us.
The less attractive but technically
necessary calisthenics to which she
has to subject her voice in order to
hit those phenomenal notes, left us
cold and uninterested, once we
were convinced that she actually
could hit high O.

Bjr 1-0 Soccer Win
By DeS BOULT
Senior SPS soccer team edged themselves through to
the finals of the Interfaculty Soccer Championship yester-
day by defeating Trinity College A'a 1-0. Both teams battled
to a liil-all tie at the end of regulation time and it was only
a penalty kick awarded against Trinity late in the closing
minutes of the first overtime period that made the dif-
tference.

Blues Open Season Tonight
Begiming Tour At Hobart
From the opening whistle both
teams battled on even terms, scor-
ing chances being far between and
few. Skule came close when Wally
Oliipendale crossed a beautiful cor-
Bor kick onto the head of Tony
Beljac. who headed it towards the
goal, the ball hitting against the
past, but refused to go In. Trinity's
BkiUful forward line led by Hugh
Howan, took the Aitiative. and both
Bugh Rowan and Doug Andison
came close to scoring on a couple
of occasions. The Skulemen were
determined and managed to y/ard
Off the Buttery Boys. Per Berg-
Johannesen showing off some fine
defensive works. This brought a
keenly contested first half to a
plose.
The second half opened, at a fast
mnd furious pace, with the defence
ef both teams taking control of the
ball. Trinity was extremely un-
iortunate when Tim Jackson's shot
merely edg«d the outside of the
Cross-bar. Sr. SPS followed with a
(ouple of break-a-ways, both John
pCahri and Tony Seljac, being in
reasonable reach of the goal but
tailing to score. Both seemed to
have left their scoring boots at
home.
) Trinity once more tried to punc-
ture the Engineers defence and al-
jaaost succeeded when Tommy An-
(Iresen, Skule's goalkeeper, fumbled
the slippery ball. Only quick pres-
ence of mind and speedy action
gave him a chance to save the day,
ba lie fell over the bail, thus mak-
ing sure of it.
Overtime began with Trinity
leading the play to the Skulemen
end oi the field, but the Engineers
defence shone and sent the ball
back to mid-field. With a minute
ef play left, Trinity handled the
ball in the penalty area and Tony
Beljac made no mistake placing the
shot far out of John Pettigrew's
waiting hands. Trinity tiled hard
to even the score up to the last
seconds of the game but the final
whistle blew and Skule had placed
tlj^selves in front one goal to
nothing.
Trinity's Hugh Wareham and
Rick Gaunt played wonderfully well
as they formed a, tower of strength,
while Doug Andison shone at out-
side right. Starring for the En-
gineers were Berg Johannessen on
the back line and Tony Seljac
among the forwards.
Tlic Basketball Braes, after only
about three wcc-s of practice, are
off t0 the Stales to open their 1351-
1952 schedule. They play three
teams in Upper New York State
tonight, _tomoiiow and Saturday,
the first_set of a series of pre-
Christmas games with American
colleges in preparation for the Ca-
nadian Intercollegiate season
which begins after Christmas.
Tonight the Blues face Hobart

college at Geneva. New York. To-

Hobart crew has only three letter-

pleased with the effort^; of the men
trying out for the team.
Tomorrow ntg^bt Toronto plays
Hamilton College, whom the Blues
laced 70-55 last year. Hamilton
will have to have improved a lot.
or else the Blues will have to be
niucii worse, for this game to be
much more than a breather.
Saturday night's gaJne is at Col-
gate. Colgate is generally one of
the better basketball colleges in
the State. The Blue did no*' play
them' last year, but lost decisively
in the game the year before.
The starting line in this week's
workouts, and the line which will
probably be starting in tonight's
game, consists of Bud Natanson

Order in France in 1807, and when
asked to send nursing and teach-
ing Sisters to America she unself-
ishly parted with two of her niec-
es and four others. They settled
outside St. Louis. Mo., and in 1851
the/ in turn contributed of their
number to help the EMocese of To-
ronto start an Orphanage on Nel-
son Street.
The four intrepid Sisters who ar-
rived In October, one hundred
years ago. never despaired al-
though at times they were close to
starvation and underwent many
privations. To care for the poor
and destitute ophhans of whom
they were given charge, they often
had to go out with baskets on their
arms and beg from the citizens of
Toronto. In addition to the orph-
anage they soon were given the
responsibility of the House of
Providence, and in later years it
was felt that the blessings that the
Community received, stemmed
from their care of the poor, home-
less old folks.
The Hon. John Elmsley, hearing
of the crowded quarters of thfr
Sisters in the House of Providence,
in 1863 gave them two acres of his
Clover Hill Estate, with the pro-
viso that they buUd their Mother
House on it. This land now runs
south of WeUesley St. W. to Brea-
dalbane. and west from Bay to
Surrey Place.
The Mother Home was the first
cradle of the College which
1911 was affiliated with St. Mich-
ael's College, as the latter is j
Federated College in the Univer
sity. Since that time St. Joseph's
College has had more than 500
graduates together with many
girls from provinces across Can
ada and the U.S.A. who have been
in residence from one to three
years. In 1928 the College moved
to its lovely home on Queen's Park
Crescent.
Misquoted
By Gazette
On Religion
London, Ont. (CUP) — Denying
that he. had charged the Univer-
sity of Western Ontario 'with
barring religious speakers from the
ITWO campus, national secretary
of the Student Christian Move-
ment, the Rev. H. L. Puxley. said
that he wa^ misquoted in a long-
distance telephone interview with
the UWO Gazette.
The London Council of Churches
announced last week its intention
of reviewing the religious dis-
crimination charges said to be
made by Mr. Puxley.
The original story, carried by
the Canadian Press and many
Canadian newspapers, quoted Mr.
Puxley as saying, "it means (the
barring of representatives of re-
ligious orders) that anyone with a
religious message is not given ac-
cess to the UWO campus."
"I've waged every kind of pos-
sible warfare to change the situa-
tion at the University of Western
Ontario as this problem is more
important to us than the problem
of the cold war or the Iron Cur-
tain," it continued.
UWO President G. E. Hall la-
belled the statements "false" and
an "insult to the student body."
When asked by .the Western
Gazette if he would verify the
.statements carried by the wire ser-
vice, Mr. Puxley said that he had
been "badly treated by the UWO"
but said that his speech had been
garbled by the press.
He said that he was speaking of
permanent Christian workers, not
of speakers, in his reference to the
UWO ban.'
SCM President Ralph Johnson at
UWO said that apart from the
secret^ary ban, his organization had
never had any trouble with the

Travelled Teacher
Speaks On Baha'i
— 1
"The BAHA'I FATTH is a world religion," said Mr.
Harlan Ober at the open meeting of the Baha'i Student
Group yesterday. He pointed out that the source of all the
g-r«at religions of the world has been the Orient and that
each has produced a great civilization.
~— ♦ At o&e time after the coming o*
Zoroaster the people of Iran
were the outstanding people of the
world, and the Hindu. Buddhist and
Moslem peoples have all made a
contribution of great significance.
Each of the religious leaders has
come in a definite period lor a
definite purpose renewing the law
of love and bringing new regula-
tions for the health and social
benefit of society. Each has fore-
told the advent of one great faith
although the followers had no
concept of a faith with the essen-

Policy Change
At an open meeting of the
Campus Liberal Club at Cart-
wright Hall in St. Hilda's yester-
day afternoon. W, Dawson, IV
Trinity presented a resolution
that "Before any drastic changes
are made a Provincial Convention
should reconsider the principles,
policy and leadership of the Liberal
party in Ontario."
In view of the fa«t that only
fifteen percent of the members
were present, the president tabled
this resolution. It will be presented
at a meeting after Christmas.
The Hon. W. E. Harris, Minister
of Citizenship and Immigration,
was guest speaker at the meeting.
According to Mr. Harris the Ger-
man immigration question is a tick-
lish one. German* immigrants are
being admitted to Canada al-
though no peace treaty has been
signed between Germany and
Canada. The Italians became ad-
missible to Canada only after the
Italian peace treaty was signed.
Mr. Harris also stated that the
percentage of U.K. immisrants has
been subject to criticism.

ment supply clear, sober, fuller in-

Come To Mama!
U of California
JVhat Price Uysteriu ?
A '51 graduate of the University of Toronto jn Commerce
\and Finance and winner of tlie Flood Fellowsliip in Business
Administration at tile University of California expresses
some of his first impressions of the University of
California, particularly concerning the Loyalty Oaths.
by Nugn Niblock.
Squeeze Them!
Once again the young men from' University College
have attempted to inflict their affected simon purism on
Wie university. Or at least have advertised it. In view of
their motion to the Students' Administrative Council to
cliange the name of the Brading Trophy (because of its
commercial implications) the latter motive seems more
obvious.
I The Brading Trophy does not belong to the University
of Toronto. It is a prize given in the debating competition
between four Canadian and four Scotch universities, in
■which we are participating. The University of Toronto has
no power to change its name and the UC Lit proljably knows
tliis very well.
' The "gay, cynical Georges" frorn UC. as Morley Cal-
laghan termed them in "The Varsity Story", are either try-
ing to be exhibitionists or prudes. It seems that they are
Bucceeding in the former.
Unfortunately, the opinion that brewery money is
tainted by commercialism is more widespread and more i
serious than the ludicrous position of the UC Lit would
indicate. Only last year the ISS Committee had to cough OUR READERS WRITE
back $100 donated by the 'John Labatt Co. for a raffle in
ftid of the Red Feather Campaign. Fre©c!om
Again, we have heard of a young man under the Xo Leam
guidance of a missionary family who was forced to reject a :
scholarship donated by a brewery because of the insidious
source of the money. He never did get to university as a
result.
This concept of brewery money as being Something
Different and Evil is, as we have said, widespread. But it is
not completely logical. One of the largest sources of revenue
for the provincial government lies in liquor taxation. One
of the largest expenditures of the provincial government is
directed towards education.
Greetings University of Toronto! It has been
some months now since I left that "dirty little
old JCR" and since I received my shipping orders
beneath that "large sprawling turtle". Convocation
Hall.
From my Varsity subscription I have noticed
that you are taking some interest in y/hat is
going on at my new Aima Mater.
What is all this business about Loyalty Oaths,
Rule 17, and the rest? Among other tasks I set
for myself before coming to Cal, was to find the
real answer to this question — I DXD!
Cal is generally recognized to rank with Har-
vard, Chicago, and Columbia as one of the best
universities in the USA. From my experience, I
would whole-heartedly agree; the teaching staff
and class of students is excellent. Many of you
wiU be acquainted with such men as M. M.
Knight, J. Van Nostrand, R. A. Brady, H. S.
Ellis. R. A. Gordon, and W. J. Pellner to men-
tion only the social scientists. How could a Uni-
versity with these men and this reputation be
affected so strongly by the American Communist
"Craze"; I will not try to answer this but here
are the facts:
1. No communist may be employed by the Uni-
versity of California for any position — adminis-
tiative or instructional.
2. No political literature may be distributed on
the University campus, but must be handed out
outside Sather and West Gates.
3. All professors at the University of Cal have
signed the-ljoyalty Oath and the fact that the
Regents have now rejected this oath at their
first session this semester (it still must pass the
next meeting to be held on Nov. 16) has not had
any effect yet; the feeling among the students
is that it really does not make much difference
since the Regents have pi'oven their power to
overrule the wishes of the staff and student body
whenever they see fit. -
4. Rule 17 of the University policies states in.
its nucleus, ". . . discussion of highly conlroversial
issues normally will be approved only when two or
more aspects of the problem are to be presented
by a panel of qualified speakers." That is, discus-
sions on campus must be approved by the head
of an authorised department, and again by the
Ztean of Students, H. E. Stone.

man's record from any research indicated that
he was more than a radical socialist. Moreover
there is nothing even in Rule 17 which states that
communists cannot speak on campus if they arg
opposed by another speaker. Dean Stone's reason
for rejecting the debate was that the Regents
of the University would take a dim view of it.
I wish to level no criticism at the University o(
California Administration, least of all 'Dean Stone
or the Regents. The cold callous facts are that
both are victims, in my opinion, of irrational public
hysteria. If anyone as much as expresses
opinion that communists should be heard, they are
linked uTationally as communist sympathiz
I quite unwittingly have placed myself in this
position, so much so that the' Chairman of the
International Board found to his amazement tliat
I have long been a member of the Canadiaa
Young Progressive Conservative Party!
These then, are the facts, Toronto. Perhaps noff
you would like to review again a motion passed
by the UC Lit last year stating in essence that
University College students were against any lesis-
lation or order which might force Toronto Uiii.
versity Professors to be investigated for Com-
munist leanings. This motion was tabled by the
SAC last year; do you think that is where it
belongs? McCarthyism and the communist purge
have gone to far in California for organized stu-
dent opinion to have any effect. Perhaps the
Communist who plans real treason against the
state should be put on an Attorney's list, but cer-
tainly clear distinctions should be made bet-\vei
traitors and democratic socialists, and above all,
this "list" should not be made a public document
for anyone interested to view.
^n the meantime, the uncensored Daily Call-
fornian and the sun shine brightly at Berkeley
California; in fact, this is a pretty warm spot
this winter.
Editor, The Varsity:
May I reply to twb letters
which appeared in your paper
Monday, November 26, regard-
ing the censoring of the CBC?
It is quite evident that the four
young ladies from St. Mike's
know very little about the sub-
ject of natural Philosophy, and
are merely expressing opinions
inspired by the dogma of their
Church.
In terms of taxation, then, no one seems to mind liquor
money or think of it as such. Perhaps this is a process of
purification through taxation by which money loses the
insidious personality attributed to it. Money wrenched from
the breweries' hands by the provincial government is some-
how all right ; it has been liberated from the clutches of its
evil masters.
' ' On the other hand, philanthropic gestures from the
brewers are looked on with doubt and suspicion. "What good
can come of evil?" cry the temperance advocates. And if
donations are accepted, they are hushed up or slurred over.
IX they ai-e ever refused it is with a fanfare.
But money is money, no matter how you look at it, no
matter where it comes from. If it is needed, as it is at the
University of Toronto, then it should be sought from all
sources. Canada is not the home of a great many capitalists;
■we cannot afford to overlook the brewers among them —
and there is no valid reason for doing so.
By all means, name the Student Union Building after
O'Keefe's, if it means getting a sizeable contribution from
them. The University of McGili has their Molson stadium.
London has its Labatt's Park. So far we have nothing from
the breweries save a few scholarships.
The breweries are rich plums, ripe for the picking. The
JJniversity of Toronto should not hesitate to squeeze them.
Firstly, Science and Philosophy
are not two separate studies:
they are mutually connected
subjects. In the summer, I read
Mr. Hoyle's book entitled "The
Nature of the Universe" which,
I believe, was based on his BBC
lectures. From reading it, and in
my opinion from reading any
book on cosmology or astro-
physics, it is impossible to sep-
arate the two studies of science
and philosophy. In his book he
presents a theory which traces
the origin of our solar system
back to a binary star system; he
does not speak disparagingly of
the story ot creation in the
Bible. Naturally if he. as a sci-
entist has conceived his theory
using scientific methods, he can-
jiot but prefer it to a theory
which has no scientific founda-
tions, and Is. in point of fact,
a myth which is accepted liter-
ally by only the very gullible.
If I remembeft correctly, in a
chapter entitled "A Personal
View", the author outlines his
persona) opinions regarding dif-
ferent coscnologlcal theories and
his theologicnl beliefs. If this
latter subject is to be included
in the study of Metaphysics and
therefore in thA subject Philo-
sophy, it is done so y/lth the
understanding that Mr. Hoyle
regards Science and Philosophy
■as mutually associated subjects.
I cannot agree with Mr. Wil-
liam Davis that the majority of
the CBC listeners who are
Christians accept Biblical cosmo-
logical theories on faith; most
of them either try to reduce
these theories to a rational form,
attempting to reveal the pres-
ence of some inner meaning, or
they accept them as myths . . .
I agree that "for the faithful
of any creed, the faith is not
controversial". That is the un-
fortunate part about it. Faith, if
not controversial, becomes , so
authoritarian that the purpose
of Mr. Hoyle's lectures and in
fact the purpose of the Univer-
sity itself is defeated by an
ever- answering faith . , . What
is the use of our studying natural
Philosophy, Biology or Antliro-
pology when, as Mr. Davis stales,
"in a matter of faith, belief is
legitimate, and opinion is ille-
gitimate"? Because matters of
faith, matters which are disput-
ed in philosophy, are so clo.sel?
related to science, then matters
of opinion will become illegi^i
mate in scientific studies also.!
In mediaeval times, the Church
was notorious as an enemy
scholastic inquiry, and in nioi"
ern time's its tools of dogma atid
faith might very well strangle
free-thinking and rationalism-

ULOCK FINAL TODAY
Using the Body
To Crown
Intramural
Champions
The Interfaculty football
season finally draws to a
finish today, as University
College and Victoria play off
for the Mulock Cup at Varsity
Stadium, 1:45 p.m.''
Vic, the college which won
the trophy four out of five
years from 1945-49, was elim-
inated from the semi-finals
last year by Ti-inity, to miss
the finals for the first time
in years. This year, however,
they came back to their usual
form and beat Junior SPS
15-5 in the semi-final.
For UC, however, the event
is an unusual one. UC has not
won the Cup since 1944, and
has not been in or near the
play-offs for several years.
Aftei- coming second to Vic in
the leagu. standings, the
Redmen dropped Trinity in
the semi-finals, 15-5.
It may be a good omen for
UC that Mac Lister, who is

lUS Reply Indefinite
Regarding Unity Meet
A reply — although not a positive one — has
been received by the national Canadian student
body to theh- request for a Unity meeting next
month between western nStional student unions
and the Communist-dominated International
Union of Students.
The reply came almost a month and a half after
the first proposal of the meeting was sent to the
lUS headquarters in Prague. Receipt of the mes-
sage was announced yesterday by Syd Wax. Chair-
man of the International Activities Commission
of the National Federation of Canadian Univer-
stiy Students (NFCUS).
Tlie text of the wire reads: 'TOS SECRKTARIAT
OPINION DECEMBER DATE TOO EARLY FOR
UNITY MEETING STOP LETTER FOLLOWS
APOLOGIZE LONY DELAY ANSWERING (sign-
ed) PESCETTI lUS."
"The letter whicli they promise is the impbrtant
thing." Wax remarked. •"What it says will really
determine*the possibility of a Unity meeting. It
might suggest a later date for the conference."
wax also said that if the lUS suggested a date
in the late spring or summer of next year, he
thought it would be a good idea to have the
Unity meeting in Canada, possibly in Toronto.
"It would be preferable to have the meeting
in a neutral (i.e., non- Communist) country If
possible," Wax commented. He quoted a state-
ment of the French national student union that
"there is a special atmosphere when ttfe lUS
holds meetings in its own country; they are very
artificial."
The proposed meeting would be between the
lUS and the national student unions of western
countries who haveJn the past found It difficult,
or even impossible, to co-operate with TUS. At the
meetmg the two parties hope to find some means
of worlcing together.
The British National Union of Students has
said the meeting "may well prove to be the last
opportunity for the settlement of outstanding dif-
ferences" between the students of Communist and
non-Communist countries.
The Idea of such a meeting was approved at
the annual NFCUS conference held \n London
last September. The conference explained its de-
sire for such a meeting by saying that "since lUS
already exists on the international student scene
and by virtue of its international nature, we deem
it desirable to achieve a maxunal degree of re-
lationship with the students of the world througli
lUS."
The conference also set out a list of points wliich
had to be met by lUS if Canadian students were
to participate in it. If these points were not met.
the conference decided, NFCUS would' withdraw
from all active participation with lUS and seeic
the establishment of another organized inter-
national student body.
These points request respect for the rights of
minority members, a secretariat more represen-
tative of the membership then the present pro-
portion of American and African coverage in the
lUS publicity releases, and a decentralization of
activity. '
The conference also called upon the JUS to re-
frain from taking sides on political affairs which
more properly belong within the scope of the
United Nations. ,
These points and the desire for a Unity meet-
ing were transmitted to the TUS in a letter to its
President, Joseph Grohman, on Oct. 19. Since then
two wires have been sent asking for answers to
the request for the meeting. Wednesday the
answering wire was received.
The meeting was first suggested to NFCUS by
Denis La2ure, last year's Chairman of the Inter-
Siational Activities Commission, In his report on
the annual lUS conference in Warsaw, he said
that he felt lUS was interested in working with
the western unions, in spite of past differencet,
and suggested a Unity meeting.
This was in direct opposition to his stand one
year before. After the 1950' lUS conference in
Prague, which he also attended (along with laat
year's SAC President Bill Turner), he said there
was no longer any hope for co-operation with the
Communist- dominated body.

I attitude to life which had made such a mess
Ithings could learn something from the Anglo-
virtue of a greater practical outlook.
■o Nicholas Ignatieff went to the University of
idoii and enrolled in Engineering. But he was
^usioned with the narrow training in Engiineer-
[ at London, and, in extra hours, read history,
jnomics and literature.
I just managed to squeeze tiirough,'' he remem-
"But the mental attitude developed through
Igineering was very useful. The disciplined
|c€ss of thought is on the whole foreign to
siaiis (in Russia the classical humanities had
stressed to make people forget their ma-
Bal needs). Training in the objective approach
also invaluable, since one can't feel pas-
bate about Engineering," he said.
flien, in his tbird year, he suddenly decided,
|ch as he liked England, that a Russian could
per be an Englishman. He had a great yen for
J open spaces. Canada wanted farmers, and the
fcng student came over as a harvester. He
plied as an axman for a Hydro projection the
-awa River (just recently completed), and was
Jtivated by the country.

enough to be able to build a new civiliza-

pdices and traditions which were destroying

problems, on colonization, land settlement, and
assimilation problems .of New Canadians.
*^he lack of unity here is considered a weak-
ness. But I feel more and more that this very
lack is one of the great Canadian virtues, and
might be one element in this new civilization to
which Canada is moving. Pressures towards unity
and uniformity are among the most vicious aspects
of civilization and part of the reasons for its
disintegration. The difference among people is
what makes them interesting and exciting."
After the depression, the practical did not seem
the most important thing in building a better
civilization, and the new Canadian turned to edu-
cation. He taught modern and Canadian history
at Upper Canada College, taking out expeditions
during the summer to acquaint young Canadians
with their country, with its vastness, and the lack
of Imagination in crowding into a few cities.
After much free-lance writing, particularly for
"Saturday Night", on assimilation of new Cana-
dians, and on International affairs, Mr. Ignatieff
joined the Engineering branch of the army, in
September 1939. Sent to England, he was loaned
to the War Office for intelligence duties, and
became an "armchair strategist". His field largely
concerned the Russians.
"Present relations between the allies, and the
cold war. did not come as a surprise to us. Every-
thing, overlooked before in the attempt to present
a united front to Hitler, had pointed to the inevit-
able collapse of allied relations."
Returning to Ottawa after the war, still in the
Intelligence, he began to feel more and more that
the solutions to major problems were not pri-
marily military, nor did these problems all centre
on Communism. "One of the tragedies of the
cold war is that issues have become over-sim-
plified."
So Warden Ignatieff, his very charming wife,
and his young son came to Hart House. His job
here is largely concerned with the mental out-
looks and lives of the men of the University, out-
side the classroom.
"Our only hope is to turn out a generation which
can tackle our problems in a more imaginative
fashion. And we must not leave the frontier as a,
sort of last resort of the disillusioned and the
escapist. Univeisity often acts as a sponge, bringing
in the best and turning out city dwellers. For a
better civilization, we must pump out bold, original
men to all corners of the country. Not the escapist,
but the man who is going to build!"
Role Of Quaker Discussed
By Haslem At Hillel House
Mr. Fred Haslem, Executive Di-
rector of the Society of Friends
discussed "The Role of the Quaker
in a Troubled World" Wednesday
night at the Hillel House.
In his introduction, Mr. Haslem
told how George Pox, the founder,
came into contact with the Seek-
ers in the 17th Century. This group
met in quiet meditation to seek
God. By the end of the century
they were a strong active group.
They believe that "inward light"
is a part of inheritance through
which one can achieve the high-
est spiritual motivation. They also
believe an oath useless, as you will
only tell the truth if you want to.
"War", said Mr. Haslem, "de-
stroys homes and properties. We
have come to a point where the
weapons of tomorrow are unknown.
Brutality has also advanced; we
speak glibly of •Operation Killer'
and throwing the Koreans into a
meat grinder." The Quakers, he
continued, feel that Communism
can only be changed by implemen-
tation of better ideas, not by war.
During and after a war, the Quak-
ers attempted to put the land back
into production and to settle the
homeless. They do not take sides.

la July, 1951, seven Quakers went
to Russia to encourage an inter-
change of people; less vilification
of the press of both sides; release
of Soviet prisoners, and co-opera-
tion in raising the world's stan-
dard of living. There has been no
official reply as yet.
The Quakers have published two
books stating their ideas for reach-
ing an agreement. The first boolc
Mr. Hasletn discussed was "Bussia
and Us." The points emphasized
were: export policies be dropped
to encourage East-West exchange;
Germany must not be allowed to
build up her munitions; \ the pro-
ducts of the Ruhr should be for
East and West Germany; the UJS.
should affirm her faith in the UN
and strengthen the bond between

should be made for a substitution

mate; Egypt be under UN trustee-
ship.

graphed right in the college. This
is now going into its third year of
life. Its character has varied great
]y. Recently, it turned to a less
newsy format, slougtilng off much
of its former gossip and sports re-
porting ana turning instead to a
more philosophical plane.
Editors Nick Treanor and Skip
Olmslead asked m their columns
for criticisms of the new policy.
All year there had been a number
of letters to the editor each week,
The next week after the request
■was made, the flood was increat^ed
by even more — uniformly praising
the new style and even the quality
of mimeographing work.
The older publication is the Tri-
reme, a printed magazine founded
Student Blood
Sought Soon
For Soldiers
The Students' Council decided
Wednesday night to set up a blood
donor campaign on the campus in
co-operation with the Red Cross.
The decision was made as the re-
sult of recent publicity in the news-
papers, wlilch indicates that there
is a great need lor blood plasma in
Korea. It was also suggested by a
letter from the Red Cross, which
urged such a campaign.
The Executive Committee of the
Council, in recommending the cam-
paign, said it felt sucli an opixir-
tunity would be welcomed by the
students and would offer them a
constructive program which would
build good will as well as accom-
plish a worthy project.
It was proposed that the blood
donor campaign be organized to-
wards the end of January, by the
SAC Student Sei-vice Conionission.
It was also suggested that the
means of organizing should be
through Uie presidents of the vari-
ous student governments, who in
turn would work through the pres-
idents of the years in each faculty.
five years ago. It was planned to
appear twice annually and con-
tain fiction, articles of a thought-
ful nature, and poetry.
Soon tfae idea of two issues an-
nually was replaced by a content-
ment with one, and two years ago
the editorials were reduced to a
minimum and articles were no
longer to be found.
This year editor Miles Kennedy,
some weeks after the start of the
year surprised the joint Student's
Council of the men and women of
the college by asking permission to
have the magazine professionally
mimeographed (with illustrations
In colour to help appearances). He
also asked .to have three issues in-
stead of two. After some consider-
able discussion it was felt that it
would probably be impossible to
get enough advertising to make
this possible. It was also felt that
since this is the college's centen-
nial, one issue at least should be
printed and enlarged to celebrate
the event. When his suggestion was
turned down. Kennedy resigned.
His resignation was accepted and a
memorandum was made advising
his successor to seek extra issues
next year from the very start, when
budgets have not yet been drawn
up and when advertisers are more
amenable to additional burdens.
Wayne Kurlinski is now in the
chair. The creative writers' group
continues to meet on alternate
Monday evenings to read over and
discuss each other's work. Prom
this group Kurlinski hopes to draw
the core of the forty pages (largfer
than usual) magazine which is the
plan for this centennial year.
BiMnd 3€ay Get
New Lfnifarms
The Students' Council decided
to investigate the possibility of re-
placing the Blue and White Band's
uniforms with new ones, possibly of
a new 'design, at their meeting
Wednesday night.
Investigation has been left to a
committee of four, including the
Council's Finance Commissioner
and representatives of the Blue and
White Society and the Band,
The matter was brought up at a
meeting of the Executive Commit-
tee of the Council, at which Presi=
dent Syd Wax pointed out the need
for new uniforms.
' "Present uniforms are in bad con-
dition," Wax said. "The present
uniforms have been in use since
1937. with the exception of the
four war years. Some hats and
trousers have been replaced from
time to time, but that's all."
Band Leader Jim Guthro ampli-
fied Wax's remarks. He said the
uniforms are too small for the
average person, and suggested sell-
ing them into a high school band, as
they could be cut down and re-
paired for smaller boys. He also
pointed out that there is no lead-
er's uniform of any kind.
He also thought the band should
get great coats for cold days, as
does the band at the University
of Michigan.
It was suggested at the Exec-
utive meeting that if the cost of
new uniforms is beyond the Coun-
cil's budget, alumni donations
should be solicited. This is done
in many places, it was pointed out.
For example, at Harvard a special
request is placed in each envelope
issued to season ticket subscribers.
It was the opinion of tlie Exec-
utive Committee that it would be
difficult to salvage any part of the
old uniforms, and it would be bet-
ter to get entirely new ones.

Novels meet unpredictable treatment in the California film
Sometimes the novel is more-or-less violated, the spmt is klUert""'^
the famous best-selling title remains. Or, sometimes the title is cha
also, because the movie public may not be able to figure it
so won't come.
On the brighter side of the scale, increasing attempts are k
made by more sincere producers and directors to keep faith with^'l''
original work. This can sometimes sadly result in the dullness '
THE MUDLARK. Or in the not completely satisfying translation t "*
novel like THE BRAVE BTJI.US, although the film deserves a in? '
credit for an honest try. ^
But -there are happy times when a novel and the film become
ntertaining and yet honest to the spuit. This has happened
John Huston made THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE. ^^^1
It is obvious that director Huston thinks the Stephen Crane
is the classic some literary critics claim it to be. He has treated
novel lovingly, and yet with the sure touch of film genius, he has tr.
it live on the huge flat intimate screen. THE "BED BADGE OF COr'm'
AGE grips your attention: what happens to the Youth in battle se^
very important. And when it is over there is a sense of completeness ^
THE RED BADGE OF COtTRAGE is not a war film as such u
about a Youth, frightened but wanting to be brave and fearful he n
not meet the standards of manhood in battle. The novel is a psjcl-
logical study, and so the film treatment must show the working of
Youth's mind as things keep on happening. This is a new dimension ^
the screen; Huston takes it in his stride and makes it come true
more than just black-and-white teims.

\\f Even in a time of Hollvwoori rebirth when iinnpr_iii,.-. *a
in a while. Even In a time of Hollyi\'ood rebirth when upper-levei
are turning up frequently, this John Huston production of the ste
Crane novel deserves fanfare, bugle bands, and drum tattoos, '
Along with the Youth's mental turmoil that the camera reveals h
dwelling on actor Audie Murphy. Huston makes the battle scenes excu
ing by having the camera following the. Youth's regiment as it
forward or back or holds. Battle is confusing to the individual solif,
battle in THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE has the same realistic cun
fusion. One-of the highlights is the Youth's panic-stricken flight throueh
the woods and fields which in broad daylight captures the same oamc

Because Murphy has been no actor in his previous films, it woiilj

The trial run of a plan to mimeo-

ed Wednesday.
At the present time, committee
reports are read at the SAC meet-
ings, but since some of the com-
mittees do not meet until a tew
hours before the full Council meet-
ings, it lias been found impossible
in the past to mimeograph the re-
ports and distribute them to mem-
bers beforehand. Secretary-Treas-
urer E. A. Macdonald said.
"Because we don't hear the re-
ports unUl we have to approve or
disapprove them, we can't deal
adequately with the material m
them", commented Bill Corbett.
who suggested the idea.
He pointed out that in its com-
mittee reports Wednesday night,
the Council had covered 32 separ-
ate items. "We can't do justice
to these points if we have no idea
what they're about until we come
to the meeting," Corbett said.
Chuck Hanley, UC, pointed out
that mimeographed reports would
have the additional advantage of

defeated the St. Mike's team yes-
terday afternoon to gain a berfh
In the Arts Faculty Cup Pinal?.
Ttie only goal of the game was
scored by an unfortunate St. Mike's
defenceman who blasted the best
shot of the day past his own goal-
keeper tliree minutes before the
end of the first overtime period.
The game was played on a wet
and muddy field on the Back Cam-
pus, and the poor conditions slow-
ed many of the players to a walk
by the end of regulation time. None
the less, both teams played a very
line same, and only the quaemire
in front of each goal prevented
the score from being much higher.
St. Mike's took command at the
start of the game, while the Red-
men seemed unable to adapt their
game to the wet field. A well-plac
ed corner kick was headed by
Miles Kennedy of St. Mlke'a right
to the U.C. keeper, and seconds
later Mikeman Don Rope bit the
cross-bar with a free kick from the
right wing. After the first fifteen
minutes U.C. recovered somewhat,
and Steve Dalnoki, playing a
splendid rovmg game at centre-
forward just missed the lett post
on a good breakthrough.
For the balance of the first per-
iod U.C. put on the pressure. Dal-
noki, the centre, along with his two
wings kept the St. Mike's defence
fully occupied, and had their ip.
elde-forwards been able to get mOre
into the attack, a goal might well
have resulted. The rubber ball used
in tlie game was too lively to be
easily controlled, and some break-
aways by both teams were spoiled
by the ball rolling ahead of the for-
,wards and over the goal-line. Low
oE U.C, niissed a good chance short-
ly before the end of the half when
he shot over the bar.
St. Mike's pressed strongly after
the half-time interval, but were un-
able to pay off. Robhi Scott of
U.C. came up with some splendid
defensive play, as did Lloyd Elmer
at centre half. Ivern Davis of St.
Mike's just missed heading In a
well-placed corner from Don Rope,
and after that U.C. returned to the
attack. Three scrambles In front
of the St. Mike's goal resulted it
no score, thanlcs mainly to a bril'
llant save by goalie Don Mumane
on Dalnokl's grounder. A few min-
utes later Dalnoki blasted an easy
one over the bar as he lost bal
lanoe in shooting.

iii-.t L 11 Rope played well at mid-
fi^ld. but their craft seemed to
leave tiiem as they came close to
the U.C. goal.
Tile overtime period saw U.C.
pres,=.irig for a SLore for the first
five minutes. St. Mike's took over
at the turn, and at one point had
three forwards in ou top of a
bounding ball in front of an open
U.C. net. and only the presence of
mind of U.C.'s Robin Scott averted ,
a score. Fred Brnuer of U.C. played
a brilliant game in the nets, as did
his counterpart Murnane for St.
Mike's
Three minutes before the end of
the overtime, chance played its
part in a game which the breaks
had to decide. In attempting to
clear in front of his own net, a St.
Mike's man miskicked, and Mur-
nane had ]io chance on a ball
which shot into the upper corner
of the net. St. Mike's pressed
strongly until the final whistle, but
their luck had run out.
Considering the conditions, it
was a well-played, very even game.
U.C. often looked more likely to
score, and Dalnoki and Scott were
probably the best players on the.
field. The game was very fair and
clean, and the refereeing was ex-
cellent. Either team might well
have won. and the only difference
between them was in their luck.
U.C. advances to the final against
Senior S.P.S.— the game being play-
ed early next week.

In Hockey Tilt
In a penalty studded hockey con-
test yesterday, Vic. Sr. blanked St.
Mike's A's to the tune of 4J>. St.
Mike's pressed hard In the first
period but died under a withering
attack by Vic. in the last frame.
In the first period the play was
rather slow with neither team
showing much polish on the rush-
es, but at the seventeen minute
mark, Vic's Walt Struthers manag-
ed to slap a loose pluck in for the
first tally.
The second frame however was
a different story altogether for it
was Vic all the way. They outskat-
ed, outshot and outplayed the ob-
viously tired Mikemen. Scoring in
this period came when Paul Wal-
ton slapped two talHes past Grossi
in the S.M.C. nets, and Gibson
dented the twine once. St. Mike's
matched Vic's goals by penalties
drawing four in the second period,
two of which were very cheap and
did not help the game at all. Aside
from some fine defensive play by
Hatwich the double blue squad
were not clicking at all.
Best for the winners were Wal-
ton, Struthers and Fenning, The
losers showed individual power in
the Cole, Hunt, McDonald line es-
pecially in the penalty-killing role,
but obviously not enough to over-
come the unified strength of the
Scarlet and Gold squad.

Matmen Meet
In Hart House
This Saturday
The University of Toronto Wres-
tling team is all set for the first
meet of the year. This will be the
City of Toronto Novice tournament
to be held tomorrow in Hart House.
This is one that the University
team took by a considerable major-
ity last year.
Only those wrestlers who have
not competed in any Intercolle-
giate competitions before this year,
and those who have not woff an
interfaculty tournament are elig-
ible lor this meet. Varsity expects
to have most of then- promising
juniors out to this meet which is
generally a good preview of the
junior interfaculty. Last year, out
of seven men who went down to
enter the meet there were six that
came out with championships.
A week later, from December 5-8,
will be the Junior interfaculty
tournament for this year. In it all
the prospective wrestlers from the
different faculties will wrestle off.
The final championship fights will
be held on Athletic Night on Dec.
8th. Tile regulations are the same
as before with regard to who is
eligible to enter the competition.
On December I5th there will be a
meet of the senior team of the Uni-
versity against the Ontario cham-
pions in amateur wrestling. This
year's senior team has not yet
been picked, but there are a few
carried over from last year's squad
that will go a long way in carrying
the Blues along. These include Joe
Goldenberg, 123 ibs., Tom Hatash-
ita, 135 lbs., and Bill Chykalluk
n7 lbs. There are others from the
Inteimediate team of last year
that will also fill in a few gaps. If
the University team wins this meet
they will be in a very favourable
position with regard to the compe-
titions for the Olympic teams next
year.
The first half opened with a
shooting duel between George Stu-
lac of Varsity and Sandy Kier of
Central Y but their shooting was
off and the play turned rough and
slow as the half ended 29-all.
The second half . however had
the crowd on their feet every sec-
ond as the lead seesawed back and
forth.
At the end of the third quarter
the score was tied again- 43-43 and
set the stage for a fourth quarter
which had everything a basketball
fan would want. Sandy Kier. who
vjras the game's high scorer with 23
points, raced down the middle to
put Central Y ahead 45-43 In the
early seconds of the last period.
Stulac then sank two foul shots to
tie the score again at 45 all. Again
and again Stulac, Kettle and Dancy
stormed in under the elusive Cen-
trar Y basket failing to score un-
til Al Dancy finally tipped in a re-
bound.
The play was rough and fast with
many fouls as the score became
4-848 on an exchange of foul shots.
Leo Madden, who had been fair-
ly ineffective tmring the early
stages of the game, then showed
why he was one of the New v
city high school All Stars last y'^
as he sank two beautiful long sb '
to set the Orphuns up 52 to 48 j ^
broke away again with three mf''
utes left to increase the lead i
55-48. Kier, who was practlcaiiv
one-man team for Centra! scorn
the last two baskets, one on
breakaway, but it wasn't enough*
The Blues had to hold on in tijj
final minutes protecting their leg^
and they did it just as successful
ly as they had done in their fifjj
game.
Jimmy Russell and Doug Ketti
played good ball for Varsity ai^
though Stulac was the best ball
handler on the floor.
George Stulac was again m n
scorer for the Baby Blues wuii ip
points giving him a two g.-^nie t,^
tal_pf 38 points.
YMHA surprised everybody
building up a 7-0 lead after 8 min,
utes of play in the first quartei ov,
er the powerful Tri Bells: howev-
er the Bells won easily. Varsjty
and Tri Bells now share the lead
in the Senior league with two vic-
tories apiece.

ing the line while ex-Blue player
and former war veteran Byron
Peebles is coaching the backfield.
Lister was originally to be head
coach, but took ill just before the
season started. UC tr^ed^ getting
a couple of the local pros to take
the job. but when their reliability
proved to be considerably inferior
to their football ability. Peebles
was given the job. Lister came on
the scene late in the season to
help out.
Lew Fick has been coachinc at
Vic for three years now. ever since
Bernie Taylor left for McMaster.
Fick played for Vic two or three
years before his appointment as
coach.
Both teams rely mainly on
strong running attack. UC's strong
front wall will likely be a decisive
factor. Two outstanding linemen
played with the Intermediates last
year, guard Art Cringan and cen-
tre Carl Naumoff. Their defensive
backfield. with Pete Gawinski and
Jack MacParlane' as secondaries

Vic's ends. Art Williams and Mel
Moyer. will probably be better at
stopping UC's wide stuff than any
other team's this year. Ed Pile,
John Wilson, and Jim Rogers
should be able to hold down the
centre of the line if the flanks can
hold. Lome Lorge, who has quar-
terbacked Vic teams for four years,
will direct a capable and more
experienced backfield than UC's,

Too Much Rein?
OUR READERS WRITE
As publishers ot The Varsity, It seems strange we (the Council)
sbould be condemned by our own paper. , , . We are giving the
editors of The Varsity too much rein,
i^elf the only champion of the people. ,
The Varsity eonsiden
These statements, made at last Wednesday's Students'
Administrative Council, indicate a misconception of the role
of The Varsity in university ]if& Because of the seriousness
of the charges and in view of the incorrectness of the basic
assimiptions we would like to clarify our position.
The Students' Administrative Council and its most
important job, the publication of The Varsity, have a com-
mon goal, that of working in the best interests of the stu-
dents. And although we may disagree on precisely what
•tudent interests are in particular cases, we are agreed on
our responsibility to the student body. The Varsity is not
asked to agree with the SAC at all costs, but rather to work
for the good of the students. In short, the SAC and The
Varsity have identical aims, but their interpretations may
We stand somewhere between the SAC and the student
body. Our function, on the editorial page of this paper is to
interpret the news in view of what we consider to be the
besi interests of the students. That is our duty; that is
what the editor of our student newspaper is chosen to do.
And disagreeing with the SAC may at times be the inevitable
consequence of a conflicting interpretation of* student
interests.
The Varsity is not published by the Students' Adminis-
trative Council to forward its views to the exclusion of the
opinions of its editors. If this were the case, there would be
Utile point in publishing anything more than a bulletin sheet.
But this is not the case and the contract between the
Editor-in-Chief of The Varsift- and the Students' Adinmis-
fa-ative Council states so explicitly:
editor. The Varsity:
I regret tliat I fee] obliged to reply to Mr.
Cheng's letter In Wednesdays issue of tbt Var.
Bity on the Dean of Slianghai's address to the
UN club on "Life Behind the Bamboo Curtain."
I regret that valuable time should have been
wasted in trying to correct a completely biased
and distorted impression tha Mr. Cheng would
lite to leave with those who were not at the
meeting.
Characteristically. Mr. Cheng begins his disa-
greement with the Dean's remarks by a not so
subtle imputation of discreditable motives to the
Dean and the use of carefully selected remarits
lifted out of a descriptive talks to suggest that
what he said could not be taken seriously simply
because he happened to be pastor of a big church.
For Mr. Cheng to say that he was "not impressed
that the Dean is a true Christian serving for the
cause of human brotherhood and friendship" on
such ridiculous grounds is, I consider, both an
unwarranted attack on the speaker's character and
_ an insult to a guest of the University. This is so
particularly since the Dean 15 not on the campus
to reply.
For such a politically conscious engineer as
Mr. Cheng to attack the speaker's remarks in
such a personal way- and then continue, as I
shall point out, to ignore the point of his addresS
and attempt to refute it with a series of irrevelant
non sequitui-s is to lay himself open to the sus-
picion that he is deliberately trying to squelch the
only first hand evidence we have had recently
from China and at the same time suggest a highly
corored picture of his own based on irrelevant
statistics.
In his second paragraph Mr. Cheng states cate-
gorically that the Dean's remaiks "had achieved
00 other effect than to excite hatred between the
peoples of Canada and China", since people tend
to take the printed word at face value only a
critical reading will disclose the totally "mislead-
ing" character of the remark. In the first place
the Dean's remarks were confined to actions of
the governments of China which he distinguished
from the people of China. In fact he described
the people as non-political.
Secondly the tone and character of his remarks
were confined to actual incidents of which he had
dh-ect knowledge. There was nothing in his re-
marts to excite in the fl»st place or secondly to
induce even slightly among his audience the emo-
tion of hatred. This I verified personally by con-
versation with many of those present after the
remarks. Surely, Mr. Cheng cannot hold the Dean
responsible for his exceptional emotional sensitivity
to the relation of events, might I say facts, which
intrude on some personal theoi-y of his The re-
ductio ad absurdum of this particular phrase can
be seen by the fact that the 4d0 mUlion odd people
of China are undoubtedly unaware of the Dean's
remarks and it is known that many ol them arc
of the same opinion if they could express it openly
1 dealt at such length with this remark be-
cause I think It an example of the misleading im-
pression without a shadow of substance that can
be created and yet not look implausible to the hur-
ried or casual reader. Occasional exaggerated
emphasis or mistaken impression in an?i

Mr. Cheng prefaces his remarks on lanrt

description of production without reference l»
distribution is surely "superficial" in its commoa
meaning. As has been so aptly remarked ol tin
peoples' governments "pretty soon the people becin
to wonder who these people are."
No one denies that the breatdown of the e.itor.
tionate landlord class is a step towards prosress
in China. The Dean stated that this shift or
possession was going oa If he "rKglected the sig-
nificance ot land reform with regard to masj
education" it was probably because he had nol
been instructed in a somewhat tenubus relation,

comed. Let us hope the increased production will

That, when appointed to the position of Edilor-in-Chief of The.
Varsity by the CouncU, the Editor is giv»n the confidence of the*
Student Body and in holding this important position, he is expected
i« use his ability in theix best interests. . , ,
In being criticized by the SAC, we are following in the
fine tradition of previous Varsity editors. Indeed, such
criticism 'has become almost an annual custom. It would
•eem hardly less than inevitable that the SAC and The
iVai'sity would disagree in their interpretation of student
'HJteresta.
It has been implied that the publishers (SAC) of this
paper are above criticism. But we are not a commercial
organization, like the downtown papers, to be told what to
iio and say in our editorial columns. The SAC, as representa-
tives of the students of this university, have chosen the
editors of this paper to fulfil a certain function — that of
editing a newspaper to the best of their ability. No strings
•re attached; the SAC may criticize us and may even fire
us, if we fail in our duty to the students.
In a definition of the function of a college paper. Dr.
B. K. SandweU has said: "Once appointed, the university
editor owes his entire allegiance to the organization which
appointed him — not to any section j>f it, and not even to
Mm officers of it, but to the student body as a whole." This
opinion we heartily endorse; indeed, we believe tiSt few
■ould agree miVa. a narrower definition.
Editor, The Varsity
I would appreciate the oppor-
tunity of denying the "undemo-
cratic" nature of the happenings
in the Peace Council last spring.
The happenings in question were
judged by the Caput to be con-
stitutional at a meeting on May
1st. If the use ot the word "un-
democratic" in your editorial is
meant to imply that the consti-
tution of the Peace Council is
undemocratic, this should have
been stated explicity.
That the Peace Council has
"backed down" is unfortunately
one possible interpretation of our
activities. However, the new pol-
icy of the Peace 'Council was to
study the problem of Peace in
its entirety. JiVe did not wish, as
previous executives appear to
have done, to separate it from
its component parts, reiterating
the whUe that they, and only
they wanted Peace. To investi-
gate the problem of Peace intelli-
gently. Is impossible or at least
ineffective If it is carried on in
secret, and for reasons which have
ah-eady been produced, I insist
the Peace Council was a secret so-
ciety until March 13th, M51.
To correct this situation the
new Executive had intended to
conlmence a series of talks and
discussions to bring Peace back
into polite and totelligent con-
versation. The formation of the
UN Club took the wind out ot
our sails somewhat and it is
true to say that these new aims
of the Peace Council are now
Identical with those of the UN
Club.
To assert that we are passive
is perhaps a little poetic license
on your part. We have had an
open Introductory meeting which
was addressed by a represent-
ative of the Toronto 'World Fed-
eralists and we have had an open
membership business meeting. It
is true that these meetings were
well run and devoid ot incidents
ot a violent physical nature, that
apiwal to the newspaperman's
UN And Peace
imagination, but "passive" — nol
I would like to point out that
all meetings have been open meet-
ings and criticism welcomed. The
previous executive has had ample
opportunity to put Its views
forward but only Don Anderson
has spoken up and his remarks
were reported in The Varsity. It
would appear that our actions
have not provoked very much
criticism.
Filially only a Communist
woulj try to organize a club with
peace as its sole aim and purpose.
Peace like happiness will follow
when world society is properly
adjusted to settling Its probleir?
without resort to force. It would
be a ridiculous medical doctor
who tried to correct a severe
headache condition without con-
ducting a complete examination
of the patient. In the case ol
Peace, the patient and the doctor
are one and the same and the
problem is made correspondingly
more difficult. It cannot be sim-
plified by ignoring world condi-
tions, in fact to do so might M
taken to imply a certain insin-
■ cerity,

5-0 SHUTOUT FOR VIC
By DAVm ROTENBERG
The Mulock Cup is back at Victoria College. The Scarlet
d Gold football squad earned it last Friday as they rolled
a 25-0 win over the University College Redmen, The
esters surprised their opponents and" the majority of the
ns in Varsity Stadium as they completely outplayed the
" team in the first half, in which they scored all of their j
ints. The second half was pretty even, but the losers were
far behind, and just couldn't get rolling.
The University College squad did not play the football of
ich they are capable, and were certainly far off the form
lich they displayed in beating Trinity in the semi-finals
^eek ago. This, combined with a Vic team which could do
^ng wrong, made the first half completely one-sided,
seemed that the contest would be turned into c rout.
Bruce Dunlop, and Prozor plunged
over for the TD. Williams con^
verted on the second try, as UO
were offside again.
In tho last minute of play of the
half, Williams liroke through to
block a UC kiclc, and his team-
mates fell on the ball on the Red
24. Prazor hit the line for eight
yards, and then Lodge threw an-
other pass to Hevenor In the end
zone for the winners' final major.
WUUams converted bringing the
score up to 25-0 for Victoria.
The second half was an entirely
different baJlgame. The Redmen
were able to keep the Vicsters off
the scoresheet and the latter only
threatened once. But the UC team
were unable to get rolling on the
muddy field, and although they
kept up, to their opponents on the
play, they were unable to put a
dent in the large Vic lead.
The play In^Hie last half slowed
down considerably, and the game
was one of the two bucks and a
kick variety. The Redmen regis-
tered three first downs in the half
on runs by Richardson and Brown,
but otherwise their attack was
nonexistent. Both sides opened up
with passes in the final frame, but
got nowhere. The Vicsters threw
five but all went Incomplete as
the UC defence tightened up.
while Danny Patterson of the
Redmen completed two short ones
In five tries, and Charlie Goberls
completed one twenty-yard toss on
a fake kick.
A great deal of credit for the
Victoria win goes to the line, which

Robert Gill
By PEARL <PARNES
Theoretically. Robert Gill was
destined to continue his family's
tradition ol the Church of Eng-
land ministry. But since the time
he was ten years old, -no one tooit
this too seriouslj'.
At that time, the family moved
from Spokane, Washington. Bob's
birthplace, to Baltimore, and the
present director ol Hart House
Theatre has had his own theatre
ever since.
This may sound odd. But, be-
' fore he knew anything about the
•tage. he used to cut out comic
etrip characters, put them on a
string, and direct liis own "movies".
In hi^h school, he buUt a little
model theatre, and used puppets
lor his casts. His major interest
■t that time was in lighting and
*cenery, and he rigged up loot-
lights made of Ohriatmas tree
bulbs. An interest. inoiilentall>',
which has had its effect on Hart
-House stage, whese the director has
a large part In the scenic and
lighting ejects so marked in his
productions.
OiU joined his tUst actual theatre
company when he was in h«h
school, working backstage on Qll-
|>ert and Sullivan productions.
After graduation from high school
he discovered, almost by accident,
that one could study theatre and
get a degree In it. So Bob went to
the Carnegie Institute of Tech-
nology. He graduated with the
Otto Kahn prize for the best actor
In the graduating cliiss, and be-
came a radio announcer and actor.
"I hated every minute of it. It
TPas sterile, and commercialized.
When I came to Toronto, Stage
47 was a revelation, far above any-
thing in the United States", f
The next few years were more
to the actor's liking. He went back
to college for his M A,, and then
joined the Cleveland Playhouse on
a Rockefeller Foundation Pellaw
ship as an actor, directing stock
during his summers.
Then, in 1&42, he assumed two
posts — a teaching position at
Carnegie, and director of the
Pittsburgh Playhouse. Pour years
later he came to Toronto.
"It was the Incbiest move I've
ever made in my life. I love the
Job. So much of theatre is filled
with strictly commercial stuff;
here we have an intelligent audi-
ence and can do a solid program
without having to depend on farce-
comedies. " He said that his friends
in television constantly nagged
him, asking why he "buried him-
self in a hole like Toronto".
'They hate their Jobs, are on
the verge of nervous breakdowns,
and have to deal with trash. Here
I can do Shaw and Shakespeare:
I can work with beginners, and
watch their development". Helen
Armesto, last year's Medea, is a
prize example of Bob's teaching.
"She began with a bit part in
■Skin of Our Teeth", and two years
later gave a i^enomenal perform-
ance in one of the most demand-
ing parts in theatre."
* Many ol the Hart House Theatre
alumni are still m theatre, doing
remarkably well m places like
England, Bermuda, and Vancou-
ver.
Stjident thcAtre iias two main
purpose as Jar as the students go.
Bob feels. One is to train those
who want to become actors, pro-
fessional or otherwise. The second
-reason is equally important. Bob
loaths the phrase. "We must edu-
cate our audiences". "It's patron-
izing and petty." But, he feels,
many students come here who have
never had the opportunity to see
plays of any stature before.
"•The theatre can show how the
spoken drama enters our culture
and becomes part of our life. And
when the student leaves the uni-
versity, he does not automatically
drop his intellectual activities and
his interest in culture. And this is
what will increase the nucleus of
Canadian theatre".
This past summer, after three
sununers of teaching at Banff and
at OBC, Bob spent in Europe, see-
ing much theatre. The English, he
said, have a tradition of theatre-
goinjj. "Everyone goes. It's part of
their way of life, and the cost is
very little."
"The tendency on this continent
is towards theatre as purely enter-
tainment. It's much bigger than
that. Theatre was originally a re-
ligious experience. The emotionar*
catharsis produced in really good
drama is elevating, a supreme
aesthetic experience."
Theatre is primarily emotional,
but it can present ideas. Bob in-
stances Thornton Wilder's plays,
"Our Town", or his own produc-
tion, "Skin of Our Teeth".
"These plays are moving and
amusing. But he is telling us some-
thing as well, preaching to us to
relish lite as you live it. a reaf-
firmation of faith in mankind."
It's the old idea of identification
with the characters in the drama.
Bob has no patience with purely
academic theatre. "People involved
in productions must always re-
member they are still in show-
business. Theatre should always be
exciting." Bob has a tremendous
enthusiasm lor the renewed inter-
est in poetic drama. Theatre as a
whole, he sees, is moving away from
the realistic school, and every phase
of it is being used more poetically,
with lighting, scenery, and use of
music in plays. His own current
productions of Christopher Fry
have captured his imagination for
the sheer poetry and fantasy.
Bob's pet audition is to do
Shaw's "Back to Methuselah". It
would take two or three nights to
see the performance in its en-
tirety, but "the play is magnificent.
Someday I will get the nerve to do
it!"

Science Notes
Sea-Monsters
By OKIE LOrCKS
From the very earliest time
there have been stories told and
retold about more or less myth-
ical sea-monsters. At first they
were thought to be malformations
of forms of life that people knew.
It was through an appeal to the
imagination of the ancients that
these creatures became the por-
tentous objects of Satanic origin.
Early in the Eighteenth Century
people became ^a little more ser-
ious and a pracwce of physical
observation began to replace the
superstitions of those before. The
study and cause of such sea mon-
sters has now become a part of
natural history and most of these
explanations are quite common-
place.
Yet even the existence of some
definite species of sea serpents is
believed in by most seafaring men
many of whom have observed con-
firmatory appearances. Most of
these circumstances can however
be explained satisfactorily as sim-
ple phenomena of the sea. One of
the most common things mistak-
en for sea-monsters are the ,tide
rows of seaweed which the ocean
rolls up into great windrows of
tattered matter and leaves them
to roll up and down in undulating
motions by the wave action.
Schools of porpoises moving in
single file along the surface of the
water are also often mistaken for
a twisting sea-monster. Another
sealiving creature, the giant squid
with it many serpantine arms
trailing behind it, comes iir this
class too.
Despite the fact that a great
many accounts of sea-monsters
Stamp Out
TB
have been explained there remain,
I howevei". several instances when
owing to the general agreement
and trustworthiness of those con-
cerned the stories could not be de-
nied. In fact jnany zoologists are
convinced of the existence of such
a monster, although in the absence
of scientific proof, a general skepti-
cism prevails.
The basis of many of these sea-
serpent stories may lie in the fact
that there are many large fishes
the serpentine form living today in
the ocean. Among them are the rib-
bon fishes, with elongated tapering
bodies and a dorsal fin extending
the full length of the fish, Speci-
mens of these up to twenty feet in
length have been washed ashore
and examined by naturalists. Oth-
ers of a much larger size have
been observed swimming swiftly
along the surface of the water. It
is easy to conjecture that since
these fish are supposed to live in
the depths of the sea, there could
be so called sea monsters develop
and rise to the surface on rare
occasions.
There is also a slender eel like
sharlt that lives in the depths of
the Pacific which, if it attained a
large size would justify reports of
sea-serpents seen in that region.
Further it must be remembered
that in past ages huge sea-ser-
pants did roam tne high seas just
as they are supposedly dong now.
Some naturalists have even con-
sidered the possibility of some of
these creatures persisting in the
lowest abysses of the ocean to
this day. They were called Mosa-
saurs and were closely related to
the true serpents of today. They
were very common o .er a wide
area during the Cretaceous period
and some reached a length of from
sixty to seventy feet.
Of course this is barely even of
a general interest to the skepticist
who is convinced that there are no
such things as monsters and that
the sailors' tales are only fit for
a child's imagination. But does
not the average person when look-
ing over the ocean think that there
indeed, is a home for monsters
such as no one has ever seen.

Tartuffe"
Is Trinity
PlayChoice
The first reading for the annual
Trinity College three-act play took
place yesterday afternoon at St.
Hilda's College. This year, the
Trinity Dramatic Society has
chosen "Tartuffe", by Moliere. as
the third in its trilogy of annual
plays. It will again be directed by
Hei-ljert Whittaker, entertainment
editor of The Globe and Mail.
Whittaker directed "Vanity Fair"
ill 1949, and last year, "The En-
clianted". Last spring at the Do-
minion Drama Festival, his entry
"In Good King Charles' Golden
Days", won the regional award, as
the best play-
Tartuffe will be presented m
Hart House Theatre during the
week of February 5th. In common
^■ith its two predecessors is in
"period", has a large cast, and is
a comedy. The script has been
adapted from the original French
by Miles Malleson.
The central character, Tartuffe.
Is a sort of "holy man who came
to dinner," who attaches himself
to a household, and stays. Because
of its religious implications the
play was banned by the Catholic
Church after its first performance
in France, hi which Mohere him-
self played' the lead. And even
though Louis Xrv was in favor of
't, nothing could persuade the
Church to change Its decision.
Moliere was even refused burial
on church ground for creating this
"religious hypocrite"!
"Imagine yourself setting in a
medieval castle. You have just]
finished chewing at a large piece
of meat and have thrown the bone
under the table for the dogs. Now
you are ready to sit back on your
bench, relax, and enjoy the mu-
sic."
With these words, Albert G.
Hess, on Thursday afternoon in the
Conservatory Concert Hall, intro-
duced his Early Music Ensemble
of the University of Minnesota in
one of the most enchanting mus-
ical programs heard in many a
season. It was a program ot very
early music going back as far
as the 13th century and ending
with Bach (1750).
Not content with exhuming this
Ion g-for gotten music, the group
also brought along reproductions
of the instruments used at that
time together with two original m-
struments of the 17th century, the
cither and the hurdy-gurdy.
Needless to say, the instruments
of that period didn't possess the
refinements and technical resourc-
es of their modern counterparts.
The tromba marina, for instance
which is about six feet long and
looks like a cross between a pad-
dle and an enlarged cncket bat,
sounded something like the scrap-
ing of chalk on a blackboard.
Played like an organ-grinder,
but sounding more like an out-of-
tune violin is the hurdy-gurdy,
which has a handle that rotates a
wooden wheel setting two strmgs
in vibration. These strings are
stopped not by the fingers of the
left hand, as with the violm. but
by a set of piano-like keys placed
along the finger-board. All very
complicated, perhaps, but fascmat-
ing to watch and hear.
The cither looked more familiar.
It is an old member of the guitar
family, smaller and rounder m
shape, with thirteen mstead of the
usual six strings. Also included in
the ensemble were the viola da
gamba and the recorder, precurs-
ers of the cello and flute respec-
*^^There was nothing dull or stuf-
fy in the music. Indeed, much of
it was rousing and full of good hu-
,mor. An old German kissing
song, for example, advises that
kisses be "not too dry and not too
dewy, not too short and not too
long." In '-The Hunt" a4th Cen-
tury) sung with cornetto and fid-
dle accompaniment, the history is
told of men and hounds hunting
after bears. One of the hunters
comes upon a shapely village
maiden and the hunt is brought
to an end. The cornetto. which
supplies a piercing obbligato to
the song, is a "wooden brass in-
strument, a forerunner of the
trumper, but strangely enough
sounding like a saxophone in its
upper register.
In a different mood were three
songs of exauisite beauty by Bach,
which were done with quiet re-
straint and compassion.
The thing most characteristic of
the entire program was the com-
plete ease and relaxation with
which the music was performed
and listened to. Indeed, music of
this early period was a social pas-
time and as necessary as cakes
and ale to the enjoyment of an
evening. In short, it was a thing
to be listened to and enjoyed;
about all that was missing Thurs-
day afternoon was the ale.
The mood ot the program was
climaxed by the final number, a
joyous carol, in which all the in-
struments and the singer joined in
a sort of 15th century Jam ses-
sion.
I did." ,
Then I've read all the Evelyn
Waugh books in the Penguin 3er- 1
ies. Liked 'Decline and Fall' and
"Scoop' best. Did you read any?"
"Yes, I read them all, too. I
liked 'A Handful of Dust' best . . .
didn't like 'Scoop* at all . . .
thought it was silly."
"I didn't ask for your opinion
... I merely asked you if you
had read any. that's all."
' Pardon me, I'm sure."
"I'm reading an excellent book
now. It's called 'Stephen Potter
on Lifemanship". It's a philo-
sophical treatise on man and his
relation to God and the unknown.
Would you like me to read you
some ot it?" •
"No."
"Good. I shall. Now here's a
good sport . . . and don't look at
me like that, it's time you listened
to a bit of culture . . . Ahem . . .
How to be one up— how to make
the other man feel that something
has gone wrong, however slightly.
The Lifeman is never caddish him-
self, but how simply and certainly,
often, he can make the other man
feel a cad. and over prolonged per-
iods.' "
"That doesn't sound like a phil-
osophical treatise on Man and
God."
"Well, really! If you want to
twist everything round in that
dirty mind of yours go right ahead.
But please don't interrupt."
"Now to give an example of
Lifemanship. 'The cottage of the
Meynells is a beautifully altered
and luxurious Georgian house, but
it is an important general rule al-
ways to refer to your friend's
country establishment as a col-
lage. Why? Because it is an ex-
traordinarily difficult gambit to
counter. Impossible - to reply
"My what??". "It's not really a
cottage" is no better if not worse.
'T. Driberg suggests that as an
answer to the generalized question
"Are you going down to your cot-
tage this weekend?" the reply
should be a firm "Yes." Follow-
ed after a small pause by one of
the following phrases of extended
qualifications.
"'(i) "We've had to close the

Blue Pucksters Outclassed
As Peoples Team Wins 10-2
By BARRV THOMAS
Last Friday nig-ht the hockey Blues suffered a 10-2
lacing at the hands of a polished Peoples Credit Jewellers
team in an exhibition game played before about 100 spect;
bors at Varsity Arena. The locals were no match for the
smooth passing T.H.L. Major group team and were outclassed
with not a single penalty - being
Two Intercollegiate records were
smashed. Beryl Lewis cut .8 sec-
onds frcm the back stroke record
to cover the 50 yard distance in
34.4 seconds. She also beat her
own Canadian record by one-tenth
of a second. The second record was
broken by the 150 yard medley
relay team composed of three PHE
girls. Beryl Lewis, backstroke.
Frickey Wood, breast stroke, and
Peg Rowntree, freestyle.
Kay niiles of Western took the
50 yard free style. McGill and To-
ronto's team captain Peg Rown-
tree swam a fingernail race for
second and third place respectively.
Frichey Wood took an easy first
in the breast stroke for Toronto in
37.8 seconds. In one of the closest
races of the evening, Kay Miles
overtook Pam Perrin In the last
lap of ' the 75 yard medley to win
by .6 of a second. Varsity came
through to win the 200 yard free
style relay, an event which. To-
ronto swimmers have captured
several years running. Blue swim-
mers in this event were Mary
Crowther, Claire McMuUen, Pam
Perrin and Beryl Ijewis,
With the leadership of Helen

honors in synchronized swimming.

6 sheer lack of fight was probably
the main reason for such a trounc-
bg as only two or three of the
&lues showed the drive that last
gear's championship team was
Doted for.
The Blues scored first in the
ftpening period when Don Rope
rapped home a pass from Al Con-
boy but Peoples bounced back with
three goals before the period was
Dver to take the lead 3-1. Peoples
added four more 1» the second
frame and three in the last period
before Johnny Adams slapped in
a loose puck for the Blues with less
than two minutes to play.
Instead of solving Coach Bill
Wade's defensive problem the
game only served to accentuate his
Jieadache. in the last period in an
effort to plug the gap he moved
Jack McKenzie back on the de-
fence to help strengthen the rear-
guard tliat gave little protection to

white uniforms, will likely be in
for a strenuous week of practices
in preparation for their first two
league games this week-end against
McGllI and Laval away from home.
In spite of Friday's game ("the bad
one out of their system") the
Blues will undoubtedly put up a
much better showing against the
Quebec, teams when the week-end
rolls around.

Mttlgiclc Cup
25 - Ouch! - 0
Twas a sad story tor DC last
Friday afternoon, as Vic claimed
the Mulock Cup for the fifth time
in seven tries. The supposedly su-
perior (if you read the notices in
the JCB) UC team was "edged"
by a score of 25-0.
However, all was not sadness at
the game.. Vic rooters went semi-
wUd at the Victory. "We were
red hot" was all that modest Hugh
Alexander, end for Vic. could say.
Even though they beat UC by such
a big score, lineman Pete McMur-
try still had a good word for them.
It's a good team." Vic's coach
Lew Fick, well-known for his re-
vealing and often sensational
statements for the press, said char-
acteristically, "The boys were
really tackling and really driv-
ing."
During half time several DC
men conducted a jam session, mu-
tilating such favorites as "Dark
Town Strutters' Ball" and "The
Three Blind Mice." Among the
exhibitionists was a clown from
Vic who managed to carry a good
part of the mud off the field after
several attempts to place kick a
baU. The clown was later identt-
tled as John Lewis, I Vic. By that
time all he could say was,
'Where's UC?" Also among the
clowns were those up in the press
box who by the end of the game
were sending down three different
types of parts made from the pro-
gram sheets.
Murray Gaziuk, Athletic Diteotor
for UC, summed up the game in
one sentence. "Vic stopped our fa-
mous end run and we couldn't stop
their famous pass." The UC dress-
ing room after the game was a
ecene of devastated desolation.
The top halves of their uniforms,
which had been borrowed from the
Intermediates, were slowly peeled
off while the Dniversity equip-
ment custodian stood by wearing
an expression that seemed to in-
dicate concern as to whether DC
should have been allowed to so
disgrace the Blue and White. Just
wait till UC tries to borrow them
agam for next year's Mulock Cup
final.
Sore arms and legs were being
rubbed, niud-spattered socks were
tossed aside. Several players were
saying, "if l hadn't missed that
pass", or "If I had made that
tackle" . . .
Both Vic and DC had a good
turnout in lovely cheerleaders.
Among the Vic cheerleaders was
Suzanne Morrow, famous skating
star. She could not be reached
for comment on the game. So
the annual Mulock Cup final ended
with the strains of "rah rah Vic-
toria", a cheer (*at DC hopes next
year to drown out.
In a meeting held on Pridav
Nov. 30, the Soccer Standing Coni
mittee ordered the game between
Sr. KP.S. and Trinity replayed on
Monday, December 3 at 12:30. atte,
a protest of the game by Trinity
was upheld.
At the previous meeting of the
two teams, Skule had defeated
Trinity by a score of 1-0. The
lonely goal had been scored on a
penalty kick in the second overtime
period.
The penalty kick had been
awarded to Skule for intentional
handling of the ball by Trinity.
The latter protested the legality of
the penalty, and were awarded a
replay.
This will cause a postponement
of the final game until Wednesday,
December 5, instead of Monday, as
previously scheduled.
The game on Wediesday will be
between the winner of Monday's
game and U.C., who earned the
right to play in the fmals on
Thursday.

night over Laval University in
Quebec A crowd of close to a thou-
sand saw the Redmen open tlioir
season in a hard hitting game in
which 13 penalties were handed
out, eight to McGill and five to
Laval.
Lupovitch's second goal came
late in the second period to tie tlie
score after Laval had taken a two
to one lead' The other McGill go^l
went to Whitey Schultz, while
Marg LeGace netted both for the
losers. Laval now has a record of

Tt is often that ofne hears a performance that keeps you
the edge of your seat in expectancy, that elevates and sweeps you
on *7|jy its beauty and depth of emotion. Such a performance "Betty-
Ha'^en- y^^'^S Canadian violinist, gave last Saturday evening at
J^^-- Auditorium.
ispired, fiery, dramatic, brilliant, moving, executed with poise,
gurance and showmanship, it was all this and more. She enjoyed
6^''' ysic she was playing, poured herself, body and spirit, into every
tlJ^ f jt There was immediate and powerful communication between
^Sformer and listener.
P Her program was cleverly designed, classical in mode in the first
If modern in the second. In both styles, she revealed her artistrj'
^'^H tnusiciani'hip. Miss Hagen commenced with the Handel Sonata in
^ritinor; it was finely interpreted and delicately shaded throughout.
^ e Andante and Adagio movements, which can be so dull, were brought
t with great tonal warmth and interest was constantly sustained. The
^e^ro movements, carried at a beautiful tempo, were masterfully
executed.
She followed with the Adagio and Fugue in G Minor, the first two
ovements of Bach's First Violin Sonata, The Fugue, technically
!rfficult to play clearly and precisely with its three and four part
herds, was a thrilling performance. The Fugue theme was always clear,
ever burled in the rich chording. It was Pablo Cassals, I believe, who
"nee said that it was the use of rubato that distinguished the wheat
chaff in Bach interpreters; Miss Hageo^ rubato was discriminating
and sensitive.
The first half of the concert was climaxed by one of the greatest
violin sonatas, Beethoven's C Minor. The sombre music of the first
movement, the tnusic of the Beethoven of the brooding eyes, the heavy,
overhanging eyebrows, the lyrical Adagio cantabile, the light, ironic
Scherzo, and the drama of the final movement — all these various and
changing colourings of this colossal work. Miss Hagen successfully
captured. Her rendition was powerfully emotional. It was, perhaps, in
the Adagio Cantabile that she elicited the greatest beauty. Miss Hagen
excels in lyrical passages.
This was to be revealed even more strongly in the Prokofleff Violin
concerto No. 1 in D Major (1917). The concerto was the triumph of
tjie evening, and a less -inhibited and more demonstrative audience
would have stood and cheered. In his autobiography, Prokofiefl refers
to the broad, gentle melodies of the first and third movements of this
concerto as representing the Jyrical element in his creative style. These
movements are remarkably free of cadenzas and pyrotechnical dlsr^ays.
The second movement, Scherzo, is a tme example of Prokof ieff's puckish
.Jests and piquant mockery; it is a tricky course of pizaicatos, double
harKionies, slides in double stops, leaps of long intervals, and so on.
To all, the lyrical and ironic. Miss Hagen gave full and inspiring
expression. It was a magnificent performance.
Miss Hagen is a mature artist, not just a violinist. There is no
higher praise.

Rudolf Serkiii
Last Thursday.; Rudolf Serkin,
internationally renowned pianist,
played a recital in Massey Hall. An
artist does not become internation-
ally renowned without some special
characteristic in his art. In Serkin's
case it is precision. His followers
and admirers have learned to ex-
pect performances that are not only
vital and dynamic, but almost
metronomically exact.
Bach's Prelude and Fugue In A
minor, Brahms' Variations on a
Theme of Sciiumann, op. 9, and
Beethoven's Waldstein Sonata, op.
53, made up the first part of the
program. The Brahms is scarcely a
concert .piece — its quiet, introspec-
tive mood and the delicate tonal
shadings on which Serkin's perform-
ance of it depended, eeemed to lose
their way in the vastness of Massey
Hall.
The Beethoven sonata. wWi its
feeling of stippressed . excitement,
few minutes at a time afld-may be was Uie highlight of the evening
spread over the various resolu- Here, Serkni's inexorable rhythmic
tions which may be discussed. exactitude gave the dramatic force
of the music full rein. It is a strong
temptation to slow up some of
Beethoven's ominously quiet antlci-*
patoi-y passages. Serkin kept them
moving. In such places as itic long
introduction before the first out-
burst of the finale, he succec ied la
building up a wonderful t^nsioa
without ever slackening the . ace.
The other half of the program
consisted ot lighter works: Weber'a
Invitation to the Dance, two short
pieces by Busoni (the doeest ap-
proadi to modem music on the pro-
gram), and a Barcarolle and a Po»
lonaise by Chopin.
Here again, Serkin made no con-
cessions to the "romanticism" of
the music, but played hi ■itrict tem-
po. Chopin's A-flat Polonaise — a
considerably overplayed work in Its
8C\'eral hoppcd-up versions — wa8
performed with a vigor and force-
fulness from which a freer tempo
could only have detracted.

■•H^bajt they lost 48-42, to Haoiilton
they lost. 69-63, and by Colgate they
were clobbered 86-46.
Bud Natanson and BUI Huycke
pitced the Blues in a losing cause
with consistently good showings.
They led the Blues' scoring in all
three games, and in fact scored over
half the Toronto team's total points
on the trip, Don Pawcett and Gary
Glover also played a lot of good
baslcetball.
The team, with only eight days Of
practice as a unit this year, suf-
fered badly from lack of prac-
tice by comparison with the
other clubs vwho have been working
out for anywhere up to two
months. This is a little earlier than
the Blues usually start playing
scheduled games, but they will no
doubt benefit from the experience,
especially the four new men on the
team, who had never played down
in tJie States before and -were a
little shaky until things get going.
BUI Huycke was top scorer in the
HObart game with 14 points. Bud
Natanson got 11, and Art Binning-
ton was next with 5 points. Hobart,
whom the Blues beat 43-41 at Hart
House last year, have a return en-
gagement in January. By then the
difference in practice should have
been evened up and tlie respective
worth of the two teams should be
evidenced more clearly.
The loss to Hamilton College was
complete reversal of form from
last year. Anyone who saw the
Blues whip the Hams 70-55 last
year would have thought it impos^
sible for the same team — losing
team, that is — to score 69 against
Varsity the f oUowing year without
adding a Mikan or a Pulks. The
boys started feeding the ball to
Natanson a little more in this one,
and big Bud (who had the best
scoriiig percentage of the team over
the three games, as well as the
highest total score) netted 20 points.
BHl Huycke scored 15, and Don
Fawcett 12. The Blues actually sank
more field goals than Hamilton, but
the latter were awarded 31 foul
shots, on which they scored 21

On Being
Canadian. The title of the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey's
book just about synthesizes the present rage of Canadians,
»r at least a substantial number of them, for national son!
searching. Indeed, "Canadianism for the sake of Cana-
dianism" is becoming our equivalent to the "Art for Art's
«ake" war cry of the late Victorian aesthetes.
Of course, Canada's tendency towards national self-
consciousness is quite natural and to be expected. But in
many ways it is a bit archaic. While nationalistic upsurges
in the nineteenth century were even applauded at times,
their twentieth century results have made nationalism a sus-
pect word. Even patriotism seems a bit dangerous to some
people.
Canada, unfortunately or fortunately, was a bit young
to get on the nationalistic bandwagon in the nineteenth cen-
tury. And in the increasingly internatipnal-minded world
finds it a bit rather hard to beat the national drums effec-
tively. Indeed, External Affairs Minister Pearson's occasional
declarations of American independence have to be made either
mild enough to be meaningless or strong enough to be re-
ceived sceptically.
Of course, Canada is quite aware of and affected by,
the international temper of the times. And however jolly
the good old days of cut-throat nationalism were, it has
become increasingly obvious that co-operation must be sub-
stituted for nationalistic competition.
All of which leaves Canada without much excuse let
alone desire for any flagrant display of nationalism, political-
ly or economically. But something of a yen remains and
culture seems to be about the only medium for expressing
nationalistic fervour. The only practicable way, at least.
Thence we have the oft-expressed desire for a "dis-
tinctively Canadian culture". And thence also, the plaintive
whine of the Royal Commission on Arts, Letters and Sciences
in its somewhat maternal report on the cultural state of the
nation.
While we would be the last to discourage prospective
writers, artists and so forth, we would willingly trample the
"if it's Canadian, it's got to be good" attitude to death. There
can be no more stultifying atmosphere for creative work.
The "This is my home, my native land" approach is
becoming excessively common. Possibly because of the in-
creasing number of Canadian books being published, paint-
ings being displayed, ballet companies being formed. Cana-
dians are simply not used to it.
For example, for years and years we have read novels
•bout Other People in Other Places. Perhaps it never occur-
red to Canadians, that their own country might be a suitable
setting for a novel. And when novels do centre about a place
with which we are familiar, we read it like tourists look
for landmarks.
The critical faculties of the Canadian mind — and we
-'-assume that they are existent — are completely dispelled by
looking at themselves in the mirror. Fascinated, of course,
tut not quite capable of behaving rationally under the cir-
cumstances.
A return to rationalism would be a pleasant, if unex-
pected, relief to the hothouse atmosphere we are in the pro-
cess of enforcing on our delicate Canadian culture.

The Taa Mtwave Buli^^
In the fallowing article, the writer not only reviews THE
BRAVE BULLS, a box office failure so far as Toronto was
concerned, but also attacks those regular patrons of the
Towne Cinema who condemned it, sight unseen.
By FRANK MORITSUGU
One short week is all that the film, THE BRAvfc
BULLS, lasted at the Towne Cinema. At the box
office, the film laid a big fat sad egg. There are
several reasons for this, of which perhaps the most
important is that Canadians do not lilie bull-
fighting.
But THE BRAVE BULLS is not just another
superficial movie that uses bullfighting to pro-
vide blood -and -guts. It is a sensitive, intelligent
attempt by a talented director-producer, Robert
Rossen, to put in film the artist Tom Lea's novel
of the same naq;ie. Rossen is one of the few dedicat-
ed men in Hollywood, being responsible for such
acclaimed fUms as ALL THE KING'S MEN and
BODY AND SOUL. The first film was based on
the Robert Penn Warren novel about the career of
a Louisiana demagogue. The second was a hard-
hitting comment on the priic-fight racket. Both
were honest, often subtle, and also entertaining.
THE BRAVE BUXiLS is not as successful a
motion picture as the previous two. Tom Lea's
novel was a fairly well-integrated mixture of the
author's enthusiasm for bullfighting and the brave
buBs. and the story of matador Luis Bell's inner
struggles. Rossen does not succeed in tying the two
elements together: the brave bulls win through,
Luis Bello's stoi-y sutlers because of script de-
ficiencies. The important events in Bello^ career
are too sketchy. In the novel. Bello's relations with
his manager Fuestes and the aristocratic Linda
are well-defined. But in the film. Bello's inner
suffering because of the double death and betrayal
of his manager and his girl does not make sense.
His manager does not seem like this "right arm,"
as Bello says, and his girl seems like a passing
bit of sexy fluff.
One the other hand, the documentary approach
to the bulls-on the San Mateo ranch is very ef-
fective. The bullring sequences are even more
effective, basicaUy because of the expert tech-
nique of cameraman James Wong Howe. And to
top this, is Robert Rossen's handling of the bull-
fight crowds. ALL THE KING'S MEN is im-
mediately remembered: the crowds being told to
yell, "We want WUlie Stark." The bullfight crowds
are frightening as they boo and cheer, and hys-
terically stream after a dead matador's hearse. In
the final bullring sequence, matador and brave bull
are equals, united against the bestial force of the
crowd.
So much for the picture. It is not completely
successful, although it is an uncompromising and
sensitive try that shows taste and intelhgence. That
it might be a big flop at the box office is under-
standable. A distaste for bullfighting may be
universal enough to cause people to stay away.
But here is where I would take up cudgels for
the embattled theatre management. They, at
course, are not as interested in my aronh,
they are in business and they lost on a p ^^^k

it is more honest and intelligent and adult than 99

theatre brought it to Toronto as a presentation f.
what is known as a "special" audience. But instead
of being composed of adults, the "special" audienn
happened to have leading them some highly vocal
people whose culture is worn self-consciously and
conspicuously.
Bullfighting is a national tradition in Spain
and Mexico. Tom Lea tries to explain whf,
Robert Rosen tried to put this on the screen.
To us, bullfighting' may seem brutal and cruel. But
though we may not like bullfighting, surely it i!

Editor, The Varsity:
As is often the
"Varsity" editorials,
tial point in the object of their
criticism has been misconstrued.
This is eminently evident with
regard to the criticism of the
Brading Debating Competition
by the UC Literary and Athletic
Bociefcy.
The principle which the "Lit"
deprecates is not that the donor
of the funds is a brewery, nor
that the name ot the prize is
the Brading Trophy (although
some of us would question the
suitability 'Of this name), but
that this competition is beln^
advertised as something, which
In fact it is not. This competition
is being called "the Canadian-
Scottish championship". It Is
representative neither of Scot-
tish debating supremacy, nor of
Canadian debating supremacy.
Only four universities of either
country have been invited to
parti<Jpate.
As Is blatantly evident from a
communication only recently re-
ceived by the UTDU Commis-
sioner from McGill, the donors

Your criticism of the "Lit" is

groundless. We are not attempt,

replied Greene.
Fry outlined the Pro^essive Con-
servative platform in the forthcom-
ing elections Their platform in-
cludes free enterprise, increased im-
migration, comprehensive social se-
curity, increased government bur-
saries, sending Kurt Meyer back to
jail (if guilty), and the adoption of
the Giles' Report on Liquor. The
last-mentioned releja^es liquor con-
trol to the provinces, condemns "so-
cially undesii-able occurrences", but
generally goes in tor relaxation of
existing restrictions on the grounds
that tlie least restri:tion leads to
the least drunkenness.
More than one hundred veterans
attending medical school at Toron-
to have received a Christmas sur-
prise! Lriite last week they were in-
formed by mail that they owed the
University $2,100 for fees. Normally
veterans' fees are paid by the De-
partment of Veterans Affairs, but
with the rise in medsmen's fefe to
$521.00 the DVA limit of ^00.00 per
year has been exceeded — and the
veterans will have to fork over the
difference.
Most of the vels felt the timing
of the announcement of their debt
would make for a slim Chrismas.
The amount will be due in late
January, according to Mr. Court of
the University accounting office.
Mr. Hounsom, DVA in charge of
university affairs, stated that "the
University did not confirm any rise
in fees to our office until late last
month, with the result we were not
aible to inform the veterans sooner.
Actually there have been several in-
stances of the $500.00 ceihng being
passed in the United States, and
also at McGill. Veterans have had
to make up 'the difference."
Of the 106 veterans in medicine
and the four in Hospital Adminis-
tration who have been informed of
an outstanding amount, one third
year man capsuled their feelings in
one comment, "Why don't they sell
the ruddy tarpaulin and pay our
debt?"
ing of the campus CCF club.
"The Star handles all news, be
it an election, a murder or a fire
in the same manner," he said.
There were even some days on
which the Star gave J»remier
Frost better coverage than did
the Tele&ram, he continued.
The press is less effective in de-
ciding an election than most peo-
ple think, he said, and did not
caus the recent CCP defeat.
"Private enterprise has never
done anything important in Canada
unless it was subsidized to do so."
Mr. Jolliffe said, citing as an ex-
ample the government-built, own-
ed and operates Northland Rail-
road.
Jolliffe criticized so-called "de-
partment-store politicians" who
try to be all things to ail people.
Their continuance in office ex-
emplifies the "public apathy" that
pervades today's Canadian political
scene, he said.
Politicians' who follow the line
of least resistance when in office
fail to give strong leadership Jol-
liffe said.
They form the habit of evading
issues. In this regard the late
Mackenzie King was particularly
adept, Jolliffe commented. Such
politicians also evade responsibili-
ties he continued and are govern-
ed by the "policies of expediency."
Jolliffe forecast a "showdown"
on an international level and also
in the economic field. The
Canadian economy is basically un-
sound he declarea. There is arti-
ficial activity at present based on
fear of war. Jolliffe declared,
wliich will eventually collapse.
Discussing proportional repre-
sentation and the single transfer-
able vote, Jolliffe said that he did
not favor their use. He denied
that "statistical tinkering" would
give minority parties their fair
share of seats.
There will be an open meeting
to discuss the budget and plans for
the forthcoming Student Help to
Asian Relief and Education cam-
paign tonight at 7 p.m. in Room
22 of the Minhig . Building, said
Tim Armstrong, chairman of
SHARE'S executive committee. All
members of the External Affairs
Committee and presidents or rep-
resentatives of the various colleges
and faculties are particularly
quested to attend.
"The purpose of the meeting,"
said Armstrong, "Is to explain what
SHARE has done so far, what it
will do until and including cam-
paign week. It will give everybody
the chance to ask questions, criti-
cize and make suggestions about
the SHARE campaign. Jack Rob-
son, Graduate Studies, member ol
the Executive committee, stated
"The faculties and colleges can run
their canvassing during the big
week. Supported by adequate pub-
licity from the SHARE committee.
This_tacilitates the campaigning
for three reasons; it utilizes the
existent year and course structure,
it provides more personal contacts,
and leads to more diversified cam-
paign."

Urge Cancellation
Of Meet At Nancy
Lettera of criticism are being received by the
Fiench national student union as a result of its
proposal for an
international student conference
to be held this month at the University of Nancy.
This was announced yesterday by the Chairman of
the Canadian student body's foreign arm, Syd Wax.
The Finnish and combined Scandinavian unions
have written letters to the French, pointing out
that the proposed meettog wUl occur just a few
weeks before the Edinburgh conference at the end
of this month, and will involve the same people
It will conflict with the conference already planned
lor the Scottish city, thSy fear.

of tWs month will be a meetUig of the national
milo" S western countries. In the past th^e
™unSes have fomid it difficult to co-operate with
the Communist-dominated Internatioiuil Onion of
Students.
In the summer of 1950 most of these withdrew
from lUS, and decided to hold a meeting of their
own. This meeting, held at Stockholm a year ago,
. decided not' to set up a new international union
rlvaUing lUS. Instead they distributed a number
of fSandates to the countries present, but set up
no central secretariat to co-ordinate them. The
results of these mandates will be given at
Edinburgh.
In a- letter to the French student union, the
Finnish national body said: "We will not partici-
pate in the Nancy conference, sljice we feel it will
handle the same questions, and concern the same
people, as the Edinburgh meeting.
•This Is an obvious conflict with the Stockholm
principle," the letter continues.
The combined student bodies of Norway, Sweden
and Denmark said approximately the same thing,
admitting surprise at the proposal. "We can see no
reason for It," they said, and suggested that it be
called off.
The Finnish and Scandinavian remarks were
included in letters circulated by them to all the
national student bodies Invited to the conference.
In another letter, the French students added
their support to the Canadian proposal for a Unity
meeting between the western student unions and
the IDS, in an effort to find common grounds
between the organizations.
"We are skeptical regarding the amount ot
co-operation which will be achieved," they added.

Today at 1:00 ^.m. the Unl-

■will hold their second forum of the
Mock Election campaign. The sub-
ject of today's forum is, "What our
party stands for". Each of the four
campus political clubs will express
their views, and a discussion will
follow.
Speaking for the CCF Club, Wal
ter Parker, m UG, said he in-
tended to show the students what
his party stood for, and would let
them choose for themselves. "We
■will place before the students con-
etructiv^ alternatives to the prin-
ciples of the Liberals, the Conser-
vatives, and the Labor Progressive
Party." he said.
David Fry, IV Trin., stated on
behalf of the Macdonald-Cartier
Club, "The Conservatives do not
believe that the political struggle is
the most important tiling in life."
"The main issue facing a politi-
cal parLy today is peace," said Ron
Biederman, speaking for the LPP
Club. "We stand for big five nego-
tiations leading to a big five peace
pact and disarmament so that true
benefits can be brought to the
Canadian people and the standard
of livin'^ raised."
Said John Medcof, IV DC, speak-
jBg for the Liberal Club, "Unlike
the Tories, we are happy to face
the voters on Thusday. and are not
afraid to put our party and our
club forward. The policies of the
Liberal party are sound," he said,
"and we welcome the test of the
student vote."

Hold Election
The University of Toronto Peace
Council will hold an election Friday,
Deceanlber seventh, from twelve
noon to two o'clock, in the SAC of-
fice in Hart House. Co-eds are eligi-
ble to vote.
There ar# two positions vacant:
that of vice-president and that of
the pubhcity director. K. Gradwell
and Don Anderson, Meds-ex-Presi-
dent of the Council, have been
nominated for vice-^president. D
Hiompson and M. Lipmann are
candidates for publicity director.
strength of structure." Because of
the jewel-like fineness of the
material (a mixture of special white
cement and quartz), the building is
referred to locally as "the Baha'Is'
fifty-million carat diamond.."
The dome is intricately pierced
and designed to transmit light
through the glass dome of the
interior. This is a symbol of the
radiation of Divine light in a dark-
ened world.
The nine stately entrances of the
Temple typify the nine greatest of
the world's religions, and the great
dome itself symbolizes a imity of all
of these religions in one common
faith of brotherhood and love.
The ultimate completion of the
Temple will include a hospital and
dispensary, a school for orphans, a
hospice and a university. These
services will be rendered regardless
of colour, race or nationaUty, all
of which distinctions are regarded
by Baha'is as being superficial.
The inclusion of a college for
higher education in this group calls
attention to another basic Baha'i
principle, that religion must be in
accord with science and reason.
Ceremony and liturgy have been
abolished in the Baha'i Faith, which
teaches that such things are merely
means to an end which can betnai
easily attained without them, ra
Baha'i Temple is therefore a pla*
of private prayer.
Representation on the Toronii
campus includes a weekly
meeting for students, and seminin
for tlxe study of the Baha'i teacfc
ings.

For Torontonensis
Subscriptions for Toronto-

on sale yesterday. If- paid befoie

after that they will cost $3,50. Sub-
scription forms can be obtained at
the Women's S.A.C. office, Room
62, U.C., or the S.A.C. at Hart

Torontonensis has developed from
a strictly graduate magazine to one
of interest to all years. Walt Mac-
kenzie, tliis year's editor, is contin-
uing ttie policy of making 'Nensis
attractive toi all students.
While pictures of grads will still
be in the yearbook, there will be less
stress placed on them, Pictures of
college activities will accompany
them. Contributions of pict'jres of
informal campus scenes, football
games, etc., will be welcomed by the
staff. Because of these changes
more yearbooks were sold last year,
and it is to be expected that tiie
response will be even greater this
year.
Help is still needed to put Taron-

born in Russia at Orenburg, in
1898, and received his education
at the Alexander Lyceum at St.

UC Debate Today
On Last Election
The large Conservative majority
in the present Ontario legislature
has provided the topic for the de-
bate at the University College de-
bating parliament today at 4:00
pjn. in the Junior Common Room.
Murray Chusid, H UC, and Cyn-
thia Olsen, III UC. will be the
speakers for the government while
Grant Gibson, I UC, and Jean
Fox, I UC, will oppose the resolu-
tion that the party system as ex-
emplified in Canada and particu-
larly in the recent Ontario elec-
tion, leads to dictatorship.
To be an eKective instrument of
government. Miss Olsen said yes-
terday, the party system requh-es
the effective criticism which can
only be provided by an integrated
and strong opposition party. Where
the government is virtually unop-
posed, she said, it is able to use
its authority to override the wishes
of the majority of the people. She
concluded that the strength and
freedom of a democracy lies In the
balance of power in its govern-
ment.
Gibson, expressing an opposing
view, said if the speakers for the
government confine their remarks
to facts as proven In past experl
enoe, their position seems rather
precarious. He added that Cana-
dian history so far has not shown
nor produced any political dicta-
tors.
The second speaker for the Op-
position. Jean Fox, 'felt that as
the people of Canada have the
freedom to elect that party which
they believe to be best and as they
are constitutionally guaranteed
that right, it would be impossible
for democracy to degenerate into
dictatorship in this country.
The political parties of Canada
according to Murray Chusid, have
outlived their usefulness, as vigor-
ous expressions of any real blocks
of political feeling in this country.
He felt that the results of such
pseudo-politics are apathy at the

Magdalene Singers
The coming of St. Mary Magda
Jeoe Singers to Hart House early in
December, to give the last Sunday
evening concert before Cbristmas,
is a tradition. It has happened
for so many years that an under-
graduate ^annot remember when
it war not so.
Unlike some traditions, this one
is upheld annually with as fresh
and invigorating an event as
though it were not traditional at
all. In fact, the performance giv-
en last Sunday evening by the St.
Mary Magdalene Singers would
stand on its own merits anywhere,
quite irrespective of events in the
past or future.
This group of about twenty sing-
ers under the direction of Dr.
Healy Willan sings entirely with-
out accompaniment. Their pro-
grams in Halt House always con-
sist only of church and Christmas
music. Yet. such is tlie variety of
music in their limited sphere that
one never hears complaints of
boredom, and the size of their
audiences testifies to their popu-
larity.
As usual Suhday's program be-
gan with a Bach chorale, followed
by a group of examples of poly-
phonic church music, this time
from sixteenth-century England.
Dr. Willan's own "Gloria Deo",
written in the same spirit, con-
cluded the group. All this music
Is unaccompanied in the truest
sense— no parts are subordinated
to anv others, and all are of equ-
al interest. The St. Mary Magda-
lene Singers were at their best
here. They obviously enjoy the
interweaving of the numerous
voices, and sing with a robust,
straightforward tone, and sharp,
incisive attacks.
The Christmas music which fol-
lowed was of an altogether differ-
ent sort. Almost all the songs were
sung in a very hushed, subdued
way and in a good many, the en-
tire choir was reduced to the func-
tion of an accompanying instru-
ment for a soloist or group of solo
voices.
This group included a number of
modern arrangements and com-
positions, including several by Dr.
Willan himself. As usual, his ar-
rangement of "The Twelve Days of
Christmas" brought a storm of
applause, and had to be repeated.
This fascinating work thoroughly
deserves to be listened to a sec-
ond time. The way in which the
humming accompaniment accents
different parts of the melody in
each verse, and in which the shift-
ing chords shed strange harmonic

lights on the regular, diatonic, old
tune, make this the sort of thing
one can readily listen to without
tiring of it.
The annual ushering-in of the
Christmas season on the campus
by the St. Mary Magdalene Sing
ers is a welcome event. Hackney-
ed music is never admitted on the
program, and the performance is
always perfection itself. No one
could ask Iot more.

balcony viewpoint
The only people who should go
to see TWO TICKETS TO BROAD-
WAY are Tony Martin fans and
Blue and White Society officials.
This new Howard Hughes musical
(at the Imperial) has a lot of Tony
Martin tenor to offer, and in two
scenes Tweepers are used by a
high school rah-rah bunch with as-
surance and enthusiasm. Other-
wise the film is a dud. -
Tony Martin is the Big Star of
the film and he is seen a lot. Most
of the time he is singing (There's
No Tomorrow, Manhattan, and
some other songs). When he has
to speak lines, Martin does so as
if he were in a hurry to get around
to singing again.
But there is one number, Chief
Hole-in-the-Ground, which is great
fun even if there is no novelty.
Here Martin shows a comic sense
that should be developed. At oth-
er times, Martin is unintentional-
ly funny, when he is being very
serious and very tenoiish.
Janet Leigh is the chief girl and
she is a pretty thin-faced young
thing. She isn't much of a singer
(she doesn't do too much) and not
much of a dancer (she does quite
a bit).
Others in the cast include Ann
Miller who can tap dance faster

Vienna Night
At The Pops
Friday's Pop Concert, "Vienna
Night", paid tribute to some of
Vienna's distinguished composers.
The orchestra, conducted by Paul
Scherman, showed discernment in
its interpretiations, and was char-
acterized at all times by restraint.
The latter quality, while well
suited to the classic compositions
of Haydn and Mozart, failed at
times to do justice to Strauss'
more flamboyant style. This de-
fect was apparent in practically
all the earlier works on the pro-
gram, including Evelyn Gould's
rather tentative renderings of two
Mozart arias.
Artistic highlights of the even-
ing were von Suppe's overture
"Poet and Peasant", Strauss'
"Perpetual Motion" and his over-
ture to "The Bat". Miss Gould,
accompanied by Leo Barkin at the
piano, distinguished herself in a
group of four folk-songs which call-
ed forth her discriminating taste
and were enthusiastically receiv-
ed by her audience.
A wide range of compositions
and the disciplined conducting of
Mr. Scherman made this a most
enjoyable evening.

than anybody and has unb^evab-

has a pert charm but obviously
got into the picture because Ed-
die Bracken needed a girl friend,
Barbara Lawrence who has even
longer legs than Ann Miller, and
Bracken who used to have better
material 6-7 years ago and didn't
hare to fall over so many stools
and chairs to get laughs. The
three girls, along with Miss Leigh
make up the dancing-singing
chorus for the tenor, and in the
Indian number are quite funny.
But the trouble with TWO TICK-
ETS TO BROADWAY is not the
cast. They all try pretty hard, but
ths script has as much imagina-
tion as a tub of lard. The love
story between Martin and Leigh
was so sketchy it didn't reach
the stage or simplicity that tradi-
tional musical romances do. The
final number Is a dull eternity in
blue ballad. Miss Leigh dances
about in a close-fitting nightgown-
ish effort which reminded us of
Rita Hayworth's choice of danc-
ing costumes. And all the while
Martin sings about whether she
is a dream or not. It's more fun
watching Martin although Miss
Leigh is more beautiful because
he moves back and forward as if
he's silting on an observation car
platform.
But it is in the Pagliacci num-
ber that things reach some kind
of climax. It is a clash of light
and Technicolor and the electri-
cian seems to go mad. Every col-
or and shade m the Technicolor
spectrum flashes on Martin in his
clown costume. There are mo-
ments when Martin looks like
Mario Lantz looking like Caruso.
Other moments, when Martin looks
like some other departed spirit.

{Sociologist Sees Problems
Of American Middle Class
AveAtque Vale
By ANNE CARNWATH
Book Review Editor
Every now and again it's fun to take a plunge into the big-time
and pretend that you are out there m front with Edmund Wilson or
Anthony West or J. Donald Adams, It tabes a lot out of a person
because in order to do it you have to have spark and nerve AND
imagination. It takes imagination most of all because you have to be
able to WTite as if you'd just been down the street and taken the
literary pulse o£ the nation for the reader's benefit. yo\i have to assume
that there are at least a thousand uncompromising writers living across
the country whose waking thoughts are devoted to the craft of writing
and to whose "attitude" you can refer with the utmost confidence
that they are out there nodding In silent affirmation to everything
you write about them.
, Some days you can make these assumptions more easily tlian you
can on jthers. And, too. there are bright fiery days when you outdo
yourself. You' even challenge the assumptions of the big-time!
For instance, when J. Donald Adams complains that "in a country
that is going soft, too many excuses are being made for the current
difficulties of the writer," and that writers need to re-discover the
values set forth by Faulkirtr in his Nobel Prize iSpeech last year, then
we dare to challenge Mr. Adams' attitude to the youiiger writers of
today,
Faulkner advised young writers to return' to themes which involve
the conflict of human hearts, to describe love, "compassion, pity and
dignity as it is found in the lives of human beings. Adams feels that
courage and guts on the part of the writer are all that is needed to
accomplish this re-discovery of the human heart.
We wonder first if it is possible to vecoi'er old values, and if courage
or guts or anything can make meaningful parts of human experience
that now fail to get any response from u.s, Adams can splutter that his
reaction to writers who whine about "the problem of ordering and
making diamatically meaningful the experience of a valueless time"
is not printable, but the fact remains that any serious writer today has
to realize that the situations which stimulated an immediate rea'jiion
in his parents only arouse an uninterested "so what?" from his
contemporaries.
However, our bright and fiery today didn't arrive with an impetus
strong enough to lead us on to formulate a way out for that un-
compromising thousand. We raised our objection to Adams and, well
it's a funny thing but sometimes our bright llery days go all to
pieces just before high noon.

■White Coirar," by C. Wright Mills; Okford Press, 1951
out, has recently lost favor in the
eyes of the white collar man who
has found the going too tough, or
the returns too dissatisfying. Quot-
ing from James M. Cain's The
Moth. "I had everything I ever
wanted, a dream job, big dough, a
Packard that just floated, a wom-
an . and yet if it was what I
had been thirsty for. it never came
clear, but had bubbles in it like
champagne. I felt like life was
nothing but one long string of
Christmas afternoons ... I felt
big and cruel and cold, a .thick
heavy-shouldered bunch of what-
ever it takes to be a success."—
Mills traces the gradual shift of
sentiment on the p^rt of the white
collar man which accounts for the
new literature of resignation which
a Reader's Digest or Peace of
Mind philosophy exemplifies. The
Horatio Alger of yesterday has be-
come the Willie Loman of today.
For university students Mills' de-
scription of the predicament of
the intellectual and the prospects
for graduates at present will be
an unpleasant reminder of much
that students are familiar with
but try to ignore. If the intellec-
tual wishes to find a place for
himself in present society he must
become either the the idea man of
some large corporation writing
memoranda histead of books, pro-
duce symbols to win the consum-
er over to a soecial product, or
write in the knowledge that tech-
nical, economic and social struc-
tures owned and operated by oth-
ers will have the final say about
what the public shall read.
"The basis of an artist's Integ-
rity can be gained or renewed only
by activity, including sommuni-
cation in which there is a medium
of repression. When a man sells j
the Ues of others, he is selling him- ^
self. To sell himself is to turn
himself into a commodity whose ,
nominal worth Is determined by

what the market will offer," Mills
writes. The intellect who remains
free feels that only through poli-
tics could he fight these forces,
and yet it is practically impossible
for him to 'crash' into politics.
He "is forced to realize his own
impotence, and sinks back into an
existential outlook which signifies
his confession of defeat. There is
nothing he can do.
Roman Literature
For Wider Public
The Portable Roman Reader,
ed. Basil Davenport, MacMil-
lanj, 1951, 52.95.
The Viking Portable Readers
-continue to flow from the presses
at a steady rate. Three of their
latest titles are: S. T. Coleridge,
Cervantes and the book under con-
sideration in this review. The
Roman Reader.
Editor Basil Davenport has
broken this new 650-page embodi-
ment of Roman culture into four
main sections corresponding to the
Dream Language
Universal: Fromm
"The ForgoHon Longuose," by Erich Fromm; Cfarke Irwin, ?4.00.
"I believe that the understanding of symbolic language should be
taught in our high schools and colleges just as other 'foreign lan-
guages' are a part of theiv currlciUum." writes Dr. Fromm in the Fore-
word to his latest book, Tlie Forgotten Language. The symbolic lan-
guage is described as a language in which intensity and association,
not time and space are the ruling categories, and these categories
come into their own when sleep seals us off from the demands of the
space and time categories. The land of dreams becomes the home-
ground of .symbolic language and from there it is only a matter of
everyone agreeing upon the interpretaUon of dream incident in terms
of this language. This language, Promm contends, is the one universal
language.
For Fr^ud. dreams were the fulfillment of irrational passions re-
pressed during our waking life; for Jung dreams were revelations of
uncons<;ious wisdom, and for Fromm they are an expression of both
^ur irrational strivings and our highest aspirations. To this reviewer
it ^eems that each of these theories would base their interpretation
>f the symbolic action in dreams on wjiat they believed to be the
function of dreams in human experience. Fromm's re-working of the
Oedipus mvth, the fairy tale within the fairy tale which he finds m
Red Ridin- Hold's adventures, and his interpretation of Kafka's Trial
can ail be'chnllenge;! by anyone who cares to derive different mean-
ings from the symbol^ involved in these three tales.
For this reason we object to Dr. Fromm's hypothesis that a sym-
bolic language thst can be taught is possible. For once symbols are
subjected to a M system of meanings such as would-be involved in
the f- rmulation of a symbolic language just like "other foreign lan-
guages," then theFe symbols lose their essential charm.
rise and fall of the Roman civiliza-
tion. Representative literature ex-
pressing the spirit of The Age ol
Cicero, The Augustan Age, The
Silver Age and the final decline of
Roman power is here presented for
the general reader. With Horace's
maxim in mind, 'that silver buried
in, the ground has no color' editor
Davenport has made readability
the primary criterion in making
his choice of selections.
In his selections from Plautiis
and Terence he has given us a
complete play from each author
rather than several stellar pas-
sages. This policy naturally could
not be maintained throughout the
collection and The Roman Rea4er,
like any anthology leaves the
reader with the feeling that he
never gets a complete picture of
any one thing. The fact that all of
The Roman Reader is in transla-
tion adds to this first frustration.
On the whole however, the at-
tempt of The Roman Reader to
present Roman culture to a wider
audience than it generally reaches
is far better than leaving it for only
the academics and dilettantes. And
the editors of the Viking Portable*
have once more succeeded in put-
ting out the best one-volume an-
thology on the market which tails
within the price range of every-
one.

Now is about the time wtien we ought to promise our
readers that we won't write any more columns about football
this year, otherwise they will start thinking that it's the
only thing we know anything about. Of course, they'll be
right — both of them. (All the others realized long ago that
we don't know anything about football either.) But enough
of this bragging.
Probably there has never been a more striking demon-
•tration of what a team can do with just two running plays
and two pass plays than Vic's win Friday over the luckless
UC Redmen. A quick-opener by Frazor between guard and
■tackle, and a pitchout to Bond was just about as far as Vic's
ground repertoire went, but together with a pass play in
which three men flooded the flat zone and another in which
two men went out on each side of the field, these were
enough to ruin the Redmen.
Fick'.s idea of having the backs start in motion, either
forward or lateral, half a count or so before the ball is snap-
ped, 13 one which we are surprised other coaches have not
picked up or thought up for themselves. Frazor had an extra
two steps to gather momentum before he hit the line and his
iauick opener hit much faster than the usual T quick-opener
as a result. He was usually through the hole before the UC
linemen knew he was there. As well as giving the back more
mbmentum, it makes it easier for the linemen, who don't
have to hold their blocks. It also makes the end run break
faster; Lodge's steps had to be quicker and his pitch-out
■longer than is generally the case. How Vic's linemen man-
aged to get out in front of the ball-carrier on the sweep
we can't imagine; they must all be ten second men. But we
can t think of any other explanation for their small offen-
sive line (averages about 170 pounds, according to football
expert , Brad Colbert) getting the backs away for long
gains against a defence like UC's.
» • •
Lorne Lodge, who has played four years of solid football
for Victoria as quarterback, played the last game of his
career, as he graduates in Commerce and Finance this year
It was probably his best game, too. Up until Friday he had
the reputation of being a good play-caller and ball-handler
a fair runner, and the best defensive back in the league but
nobody figured on him much as a passer. Apparently UC
didn't, until the end of the first half, because they refused to
cover the receivers in the flat. That flat pass play in which
one man draws the tertiary deep, another draws the second-
ary out in the flat, and a third man catches the ball in the
space thus vacated, we consider the most effective pass play
there is, if you're willing to risk the disastrous consequences
of an interception out there in the clear. Anyway, Lodge was
throwing them, and making them connect. 'They scored three
touchdowns off it, and UC didn't intercept any.
Lodge, who collected his second knee brace this year, is
one of those good if not sensational ball players who are con'
tent to play in the rather glamorless inter-faculty league
muddy back campus and all. If he had gone up to the Inter-
mediates in say his second year (and he likely could have
made it that year), he probably would have had a stint with
the Blues by now.
Varsity vs. Albion
At First A-Night
nie University of Toronto water
polo team trounced the McGill
Redmea ae-3 on Saturday, to take
a commanding lead in the Inter-
coU^iate championship series.
There are only two teams entered
in the Intercollegiate loop and the
title is decided by a home and
home total goals to count series.
The second tUt will be played next
Saturday at Montreal.
In the gama last veekend, the
Blues completely outplayed their
opposition in every department.
Norm Mortimer was the individual
star as he scored no less than
eleven times. Bill Mcllroy and John
Bates were standouts on the
forward line although they only
managed one tally apiece.
Hart Robbins, rookie goalie, turn-
ed in a stellar performance and he
had good protection in front of
him, with defencemen Phil Rosen
and Bob MacKenzie turning in
particularly good games.
The majority of the contest was
played in the McGili end as the
hard checking Blue squad, led by
rover Larry Roieu bottled up the
Redmen and kept them on the
defensive.
The Varsity squad started off
slowly, and were ahead 3-1 by
quarter time. They added three

more 4inansweied tallies in the
the third quarter. The McGill tal-

Early this season the Trinity
squad was reported to be playing
like a machine that needed oiling.
The wear and tear of the season
seemed to be the lubricant the
team needed, and yesterday Trin-
ity proved that once more it was
the team to beat on the campus.
The game played yesterday was
the second in a row between the
two teams, as Skule won what was
supposed to be the semi-final last
Wednesday. The Intramural Stand-
ing Committee, however, reviewed
the game, and decided that the re-
feree had acted In contravention of
the rules in awarding the decisive
penalty kick to the SPS team. The
Committee ordered the game an-
nulled, and the semi-final to be
played yesterday.
The game was played before the
lai^est crowd to watch a soccer
game on the campus this year, it
well deserved the audience. Field
and playing conditions were as
ideal as coidd be expected at this
time of year, and the standard of
play of both teams was very high.
During the first half of the game
play was fairly evenly divided.
Trinity had the edge on territorial
play, but the quick Red and Black
forward line never seemed to look
as dangerous, in the early stages,
as the Skulemen. Trinity, however,
did have some good shots on goal]
which were well handled by Tommy
Andresen in the Skule nets. SPS
were foiled in the Trinity area by
the fine playing of Rick Gaunt,
Hugh Wareham and Dennis Snow-
don, and John Pettigrew in the
Trinity goal handled only one shot
in the half.
The game was quite rough at
times, and more than one player
The first Athletic Night of the
1951-52 season will be held this
Saturday night in Hart House,
A-nights, which combine a sports
with a -social evening have been
very popular in the past few sea-
sons, and there will be a series of
them again this year.
Athletic nights were introduced
as a wartime measure when Inter-
collegiate sports were suspended.
Representative teams were formed
from the University and they com-
peted with local teams. These con-
tests, combined with Intramural
events made up the sports section
of the nights. Tlie proceeds from
these events were used for war
work.
These nights were so popular
that at the end of the war, when
Intercollegiate activity was re-
stored, the Saturday evening affairs
were continued as a setting for
Varsity home games.
The sports events usually last
until about ten o'clock after which
there is square and round dancing,
ping pong and other games. But
it is not primarily a social evening,
and no one Is admitted to the
House after the end of the ath-
letic events.
The feature event of this week's
Athletic night will be the basket-
ball contest between the Senior
Blues and Albion College. This
will be the first home appearance
of the Varsity squad, which dropped
three tilts last weekend on a tour
of upper New York State. As a
preliminary to this, the Baby Blue
team will tackle the Ryerson In-
stitute of Technology basketball
team in an exhibition tilt. The first
game will start at 7:00, and tlie
senior tilt will get underway at
8:30.
In the upper gym the finals of
the junior intramural boxing and
wrestling tournaments will be run
off. There will be a full card In
both events, and some promising
fighters will be on hand. The mitt
events will be run first, commenc- ,
' ■ will Richardson (UC) Half

In answer to the crying need of Asia, the University of
Toronto last year sent $10,330 worth of equipment to tha
Asian Universities of Sindh, Jamia and Delhi.
The principles of liberty and equality behind the cam-
paign were those over which some of the world's best blood
has been spilled time and again. This year, a similar cam-
paign, Student Help fo(; Asian Relief and Education, has been
inaugurated for principles just as sound. .
We and the Asians live in One World. We are members
of a single race — the human race. The ideals of democracy
stress equality of opportunity. Such ideals stretch beyond
national boundaries — or should. Last year All-Varsity Aid
campaign show.=: that students here were concerned about
what is happening in Asia.
If the reception for this year's SHARE campaign is
less warm, are we to conclude that Toronto's concern over
the unfortunate millions has suddenly stopped dead? That
we are going to restrict our ideals to within our own boun-
daries, to what is immediately before our eyes? Perhaps it is
just that our memories need refreshing. One hundred people
still drop dead every day on the streets of Calcutta.
This One World is made up of haves and the have-nots.
We are fortunate in belonging to the haves. But oun com-
fort is an uneasy one. And we grow increasingly nervous
about conditions in the east, and what they may lead to.
' Our interest in the campaign lies partly in donating
?1 1.000. That is a lot qf money for 11,000 students to give.
But the goal, though arbitrarily set, is an admirable one.
It makes us aware that there are 11,000 of us, and unless
each one of us gives at least one dollai', the campaign will
flop.
The SHARE campaign this year is being held in con-
junction with the annual International Student Service cam-
paign. Of the money raised. $1,100 will go to the ISS, ac-
cording to the amount of ten cents per head which ISS re-
quires from member universities. $1,500 will go towards
scholarships for exchange students. Half of the remaining
amount, less shipping costs, has already been allocated. Six
Asian Universities have been chosen as recipients of the aid,
largely on the basis of their need: Sindh and Dacca in
Pakistan; Delhi and Assam in India; Thailand and Indonesia.
Those are the particulars. At an open meeting tonight at
7:00 p.m. in room 22 of the Mining Building, you will have
a chance to find out more.
SHARE is our campaign, the baby of the University of
Toronto. Therefore we .should take an active interest in it.
At tonight's open meeting we all have a chance to go and
ask questions. We want our campaign run in the best pos-
sible way. This is our chance to find out if we think it is be-
ing run in the best way. It is probable that there is still
room for improvement, and suggestions should come f rom ■
us to make it really our campaign.
Charity should be more than just a means to a private
end, more than a method to give us the warm glow of self-
satisfaction. Charity should be an intelligent business; for
thgt reason the donors must know what they are giving to.
Charity is not just aimless generosity to be tossed off as
the good deed of the day. It must be more than that.
Mock ParBlgiwent Elections
As a preliminary to tlie farthcomln^ Mock Parliament EleotloiH^
The Varsity is printinir the following planks from the platforms of fh»
various campus political clubs participating in the Election. These ara
the official statements of these clubs. Tod^ay's statementa cover world
trade.
Cons@rvc8fSve
CCF
When asked about world trade, most Conser-
vatives would say that they were ill favor of it.
Traditionally, the Conservative Party favors
sti'ong Imperial Preference. We would support
Imperial Preference as an integral part of Com-
monwealth co-operation. In this line we have lost
much of British business because of currency
inconvertibility. It is hoped that this problem -
may be solved in the near future.
Our trade with the United States is extremely ^
large especially in an unfavorable direction. To
combat this tendency, we must build up our in-
dustries and increase our population. It is im-
possible to count on US markets at present be-
cause of the recurring political pressure in
that country. While we remain a country of 14
miHion we will always be subject to American
ability to undersell us.
World Trade bulks large in Canada's economy.
We must reduce our dependence upon world mar-
kets by increasing the home markets. We must
make greater efforts to sell in the markets open
to us, especially those of the Commonwealth, ~
The CCP believes that In a world of
organized^ economies Canada must organic,,
buying and selling of her main imports
ports under public boards, and take steps to* ^'
ulate the flow of less important commoditi^.^^
a system of licenses. By so doing she will br^ ^
abled to make the best trade agreements
sible with foreign countries, and put
3tou t
the exploitation of both primary producer and
timate consumer. Also, it would make possible ^
co-ordination of internal processing, traiispot"^
tion and marketing of farm products, and it ^ '
facilitate the establishment of stable prices
such export commodities.
^ It is generally agreed that Canada is depend
on external sources of supply for many of her^"*
sential requirements of j-aw materials and
factured products. These she can obtain only \.
large exports of the goods she is best fitt^ij u
produce. Therefore the CCP also feels that tb
strangling of our export trade by insane proi^
tionist policies must be brought to an end.
LPP
Liberal
International Trade Is Canada's life blood. The
swifter it flows, the greater its increases, the freer
it becomes and the healthier our nation will de-
velop. Free trade is the old fashioned Liberal gos-
pel. True, tariffs and the industries they main-
tain are here to stay, but we should develop our
industries so that tariffs are regulatory, rather
than prohibitive.
We disdain power bloc trading, preferring free
individual bargaining. Still, government market-
ing is essential in many cases to protect our
people in the modern world.
' Canada cannot afford to disrupt World Trade
with currency juggling. She has too much to
lose. Rather she must strive unshakably toward
world economy in a free market of one world.
. . . Canada has cut herself oft from the
kets of the "Communist" countries for her many
factm-ed goods and the means of production usej
for these are converted into armament proauc
tion. That arms production provides jolis is ,
fallacy (unless the arms^are used, the marks
will not endui-e) and Canada is now suUeriog
trade difficulties.
Especially is this true of our trade with the D
where we are forced to export raw materials ani
import manufactured commodities, thus prevent,
ing the development of our own manufacturing.
When 7,000 Windsor auto workers became Joli.
less last August Canada had the opportunity to
'trade 50 million dollars worth of automobiles foi
'Chinese cotton of similar value.
This she could not do because the St. Laurent
government following Washington refuses to rt-
cognize the Peking government.
The LPP advocates trade between socialist ani
capitalist countries as one of the means to pm
and to maintenance of our standard of living.

Flash— MUP (Mongolian Univer-
sity Presski)
It was reported today through
our usual unreliable sources, that
Mongolian students have voted
9,000.000 to 1 (a Walyer Thomson
fan) to make an unreciprocal
tour of Canada. It is reported
that they will cross the Pole by
dog-sled and kayak, distributing
pamphlets in the traditional
Christmas colour — red, red. and
more red, to Santa Claus and his
helpers en route. Rumour has it
that Rudolph the Red-Nosed
Reindeer is already lining up
recruits to guide the tour.
One scholarship student to the
University of Gobi, in central
Mongolia, III Honor Propa-
ganda, smiied toothlessly from
beneath his hair, and grunted
warmly of the incipient tour.
"We the students of Lower
Slobbovia. I mean Upper Mon.
igolia. we're always getting
mixed up, feel that the highlight
of the tour will be our stay in
Toronto. Even here," through the
great undergraduate unbourgeois
daily — the ''Collegeski" we
have heard how dull it is cultur-
ally, how dusty and windswept —
especially on that detestable
bourgeois hoUday, Sunday. The
red lights that are used to con-
fuse traffic will remind us of our
glorious cause. We know we will
find much in common between
the arch-Communist city To-
ronto, and our own beloved bare
desert.

guttural Mongolian tongue ran

Editor, The Varsity:
On page one of your issue of
November 22, you carry a news
story under the tieading, "West
Plans Russian Vlsit'Swap". I do
not know where you obtained the
information for this story since
it is not datellned. However I
would like to correct an error im-
plied in the lead paragraph.
You state: "TUk University of
Saskatchewan unanimously de-
feated the principle of the Soviet
students visiting Canada at a
meeting of Its student council
last week." This is simply not true
as would be evident to anyono
carefully reading the actual mo-
tion passed by the student coun-
cil. Saskatchewan students are
certabily not opposed to Soviet
students visiting Canada at any
time and under any condition.*;.
T[ie motion passed by the Sas-
katchewan SRC merely ratified
the decision of a particular or-
ganization not to invite a gi*oup
of Soviet students to Canada this
year. It has nothhig to say on the
general principle of student ex-
change or visits of Russian stu-
dents.
In my opinion much of the
confusion regarding this particu-
lar proposal in your publication
and elsewhere, could have been
avoided by a recognition that ap-
proval of the principle of student
exctianges and tours does not
necessarily mean that every such
tour or exchange is practical or
desirable.
I hope you can con-ect the un-
fortunate effect of the above-
mentioned news story, either by
publishing this letter or by a
newspaper correction.

The second speaker for the op-

Mr. Gibson argued that it Is the
people of Ontario who are the op-
position of the government, and
that they are "reasonably IntelU-

of a dictatorship being established
in South America, "ijut.- said^e.
"you can't compare Latins with

that they were different in tem-

"B7 sending help to Aaia we havel

Kie added, "When we keep things
to ourselves, this private Imowledge
can only be used for such things as
war."
"Canada is in an exceptionally
important position," Mr. MacKie
went on. "The Slnglish are poor,
and when they give help to India
and Pakistah, people say it Is about
time; when the Americans help,
people ask why; but when Cana-
dians give, they can startle other
people into doing the same thing."
There is nothing like a bit of en-
couragement, he added. Give them
a start and nation^il government

thing ttiroug-h, he said.
John Cohman, Natlooal ISS
chairman said, "Diplomats may
make the headlines, the students
will make the friendships". The mo-
ment the student gives, he continu-
ed, he should be made to under-
stafltt the real meaning of his gift.

Club Sign
Is Ruined
With Rain
A publicity stunt which involvad
among other things climbing treea
and filling balloons with helium,
flopped yesterday — all becaus« at
the weather.
The UN Clab prepared a aiga
Monday to be hung up over th«
front campus, strung between tha
trees in front of the Engineering
Building and those at the nortb-
east corner. The sign read "UK
Club Security Council, Wednesday,
8 p.m.". To attract attention, tha
club added helium-filled balloouii.
In the early hours of yesterdar
morning, the publicity me a
climbed the trees, and using 200
yards of cord, strung up the sign.
Then came the rain and wind.
First of all, the rain waslied out
all the starch In the cloth sign.
This left the sign so Ump that tha
wind wrapped it around itsolf
many times.
"The whole trouble was the
paint," said Bud Trivett. Law. wh»
enghieered the scheme. 'T went all
over town to get waterproof paint,
but when I did get some, the stuff
was washable as well. When tha
sign started blowing around, tha
paint didn't run, but got aU smear-
ed. Just as if It was being washed."
The result: Instead of the bril-
liant sign TTivett had hoped for.
students strolling across the front
campus at noon saw a soddea,
smeared piece of cotton.
For those who couldnt read
the sign said, "UN Club, Security
Council, Wednesday, 8 p.m."

fair was Initiated about four years
ago by the International Students
Organization.
last year, the decoralions were
so original and coloi-fuT that they
were praised by the Warden of
Hart House, Nicholas Ignatieft.
and by the Honourable Vmcent

International Ball was organized
last year by a committee which
was made up of representatives
from each national club on the
campus, the annual event wlu be
sponsored by the Students' Ad-
ministrative Council this year.
Members of the ISO come from

countries as Poland. Estonia. Italy.

and the West Indies and many
will be wearing their national dress
at the Ball on Friday evening.
Each national club on the campus

Club wUl be in charge of the en-
tertainment.
Included in the evening's enter-
tainment will be a demonstration
of national, folk, and square danc-
ing by the Ukrainian, Hlllel and
Polish Clubs. The Spanish Club
will be contributtog solo dancers
and a singer of "gypsy ealinas.'

be an Israeli display in one part
of the room, and the south end of
the room will be decorated by
Russian, Ukrainian and PoUsh
students.
Through the combined effort of
the Spanish. Italian and French
Clubs, the Music Room of Hart

Orientation Tea
Is Trinity Plan
The Trinity College Freshmen
©rientation Tea will be held in the
Trinity Buttery Irom 3:30 p.m. to
B:30 p-tn. this afternoon. This will
be the third in the series of teas
given by the four arts colleges. St.
Mike's and UC held their earlier
in the fall.
The teas, which are followed by
• dance, are sponsored by the SAC.
The idea grew out of a series of
four lectures which were offered to
first year students last year so
that they might develop an inter-
est in questions considered to be
of academic interest.
Last spring a committee consist-
ing of the principals, registrars and
senior students of the arts colleges
met to discuss the problem of the
orientation of the first year stu-
dent. A smaller committee of stu-
dents from each college drew up ,
a brief which they .submitted to '
the co-ordinating committee of the |
fiAC. The brief was approved and
funds were granted for its execu-
tion of its proposals.
The brief suggested that ques-
tionnaires be sent to all first year
student and that teas be held by
each to which all first year stu-
dents in the other colleges were
Invited. The committee hoped that
the SAC would use this idea as a
pilot experiment by which they
could make recommendations for
a more comprehensive program in
aucceeding years. It is only It Its
Infajicy and it is hoped that the
plan will be «atended to the pro-
fessional faculMS.
The co-ordinating cocnmittee
hopes that the teas will have a
dual function both as a means of
allowing frosh to get to know stu-
dents in all collies and also that
it will introduce fU-st year students
into the total university conmiun-
ity so that they wUl be early pre-
sented with the problems and po-
tentialities of university life.
Club Lunch
Will Hear
TTC Exec
Mr. P. Baker of the Toronto
Transportation Commission, will
give an illustrated lecture on the
"Toronto Subway" this afternoon
at 1:00 at the annual Commerce I
Club luncheon. The luncheon will
be held at Diana Sweets. .
Employed by the TTC for the
past 30 years, Mr, Baker is on
their Public Relations executive.
He has been editor of the TTC
newspaper "The Coupler," and is
in charge of the TTC information
depailment.
In addition to the illustrated lec-
ture, an amendment deciding whe-
ther or not girls should be allow-
ed in the Commerce Club will be
placed before the gathering. This
has been a prominent question in
the Commerce Club in recent
years.
The Meaning of the University
Is Subject Of Van Wyck Talk
"Looking back. I know that when
young I missed much I was offer-
ed at the university", remarked
Dr. H. B. Van Wyck, Prof. Emeri-
tus. Faculty of Medicine, who is
to speak at 8 p.m. this Thursday
at the Toronto Psychiatric Hos
pital on "the subject "The Mean-
ing Of The University."
"The ideal relationship between
a student and a university is one
that continues throughout life.
This relationship evolves from
what the young see in university to
what the older generation have
found to be true. This would justi-
fy frequent discussion on the mean-
ing of university, a discussion
which is naturally enhanced if it
is undertaken by undergraduates
and graduates, old and young to-
gether," he went on.
Dr. Van Wyck, who retired from
the Faculty of Medioine a year and
a half ago, was the first speaker
in the Hart House debate this
fall. A graduate of U of T. he has
written a textbook on obstetrics
and gynecology. This is the sec-
one in a series of five discussion
groups sponsored by the Univer-
sity Health Service on the sub-
ject of mental hygiene. ^
The purpose of the segjes is to
attempt to solve in • a palatable
form the problems of university,
said Dr. Wodehouse. of the Uni-
versity Health Service. Other lec-
tures, -given in previous years,
were possibly more down to earth,
he went on. One of these, for ex-
ample, given by Dr. Blatz. was
entitled "Study Habits."
The subjects of the new groups
are not so defined, and it is thought
that they may be more valuable

University's Assistant Superintend-
ent Alex Rus.sell explained yester-
day that the early work is beinq
done because of unseasonal warm
weather.
"When there is snow on the
ground", he said, "we dtjn't need a
fence to protect the campus. But
with this unusual warm weather, the
campus is a quagmire."
He explained that if the students
walked across the campus in^lts
present condition, they would turn
it into a "plowed field". It would
be almost impossible to get a good
base in the spring, he added.
The fence probably won't be taken
down this winter, even if snow fell,
he said, since the University would
only have to -put it up again in the
spring. •
Commented one student, "The
only trouble is, how are we goin^
to know when to start studying in
the spring?"

Two events being planned by the
Carabin Weekend Committee are
open to aU interested students
and faculty members, according
to committee chairman Dorothy
Lieberman. n Pre-meds. She said
that the first of these two events
■will be an open seminar-style dis-
cussion which will take place on
Friday at 3.00 p.m. In Alumni
Hall, Victoria College, on the sub-
ject of "The aims and methods or
education In Quebec and Ontario."
Warden Ignatieff of Hart House,
Marg Fleming , president of the
Women's Undergraduate Associa-
tion at University College, a fac-
ulty member and a student from
Montreal will lead off the discus-
sion with brief talks. Miss Lieber-
man said. It Is planned to divide
those participating in the discus-
sion into smaller groups, she'said,
and have them carry on their dis-
cussions in smaller rooms before
reassembling in Alumni Hall. A
spokesman from each group will
then summarize the points raised
in the group he is representing.
The second event open to all stu-
dents and staff. Miss Lieberman
said, will be a "seeing-off tea" at
2.30 p.m. Sunday in Wymilwood.
Spain s Admittance To UN
Is Favored By Debaters
' TTie resolution "That this House
advocates the admission of Spain
to the United Nations" was up-
held last night at St. Hilda's by
a 14 to 12 vote. St. Hilda's Liter-
ary Society was »hosts to St.
Michael's College Senate Club.
The first speaker for the govem-
ment, Christie Russell, IV Trin-
Jty, pointed out that Franco's dic-
tatorship in Spain is not the only
difficulty facing the UN when It
considers this problem. She out-
lined the history of this complicate
ed problem. ^
In 1945 the San Francisco oonfer-
•nce excluded countries from the
XJN who were brought to power
by the axis, she said.
Spain was closely connected with
the Latin American coujitries she
said, and her exclusion would only
prevent co-operation in tii^ quar-
ter.
John Johnson, St. Mike's, said
Spain may be "still free to dance
the tango" but it was also forced
to "dance attendance on the Span-
ish government."
The Spanish government disal-
lows all human rights, he added
therefore it <ioes not live up to the
Ideals of the UN Charter, and
should not be admitted. He poiDt-
ed out that "Man's ideals would
drift aimlessl]^' if the UN recog-
nized Spain and at the same time
condone her government.
Miss Libby Revell. m Trinity,
pointed out that dictatorship was
necessary to Spanish internal
peace and order. She stated that
Spain was face^ with anarchy
when a republic was set up in 1931,
Franco had another alternative,
she continued, to set up a mon-
archy, but this would only mean a
fascist dictatorship in another
form.
The admission of Spain to the
UN would cause a split among its
member nations said Bob Collin,
m St. Mike's. The UN >is in a
precarious condition already he
continued.

Qnehec Success
"It in hard to get used to merely
being an ordinary person again!
This is how one of the actors in the
U.C. Pi'ench play "Les Plaideurs"
expressed the feelings of the cast
regarding tlieir reception at the unr
versitles of Montreal and Ottawa.
The actors touring with their play
were dined, wined and feted in both
cities.
The eight actors in thel>lay knew
before starting that in presenting
Racine's comedy before French-
speaking universities they were
chocteing audiences highly qualified
to make a keen judgment of their
performance. However, tliey ali ex-
pressed almost incredulous delight
with the reception they w^ere given.
The advance publicity in Mont-
real papers gave one fact which had
not occurred to many of the Toron-
to student actors, which was that
no other Toronto cast had ever at-
tempted to present a play in French
in Montreal. This apparently arous-
ed a fair amount of interest there,
to judge by the size of the audience
in the University ol Montreal audi-
torium.

A. Jackson
To Review
4 Paintings
A. Y. Jackson, one of the "Group
ot Seven" painters and founder of
the CanadiEin Group of Painters
will review the paintings of four
Calgary artists which are hanging
in Hart House Gallery at 5:00 p.m.
today. Dave Gardner, assistant to
the Warden of Hart House, has
announced that the gallery will be
open to women from 4:00 p.m. until
6 this afternoon. The four painters
who ^rks Jackson will review are
Gregory Arnold, George Michal-
cheon, Roy Klyooka, and R. J.
Spicket.
Jackson was born in Montreal
in 1883, just around the corner
from the Dominion Gallery. He
worked in photo-engraving and
lithographic shops and had com-
mercial experience before studying
art at the Academic Julien in Paris
and at the Chicago Art Institute.
His fh-st exhibition in Montreal
in 1911 he described as being re-
ceived with "thunderous silence".
Later in Toronto he met Harris,
MacDonald. LL^mer and Thomson,
and in 1920 he became one of the
founders of the "Group of Seven"..
Jackson has painted in almost
every acea in Canada from the
Rockies to Quebec and from
Southern Ontario to within 100
miles of the North Pole. Arthur Lis-
mer has, said that Jackson has
painted wherever there was a
chance to get away from the cities.
Lismer stated that Jackson's
outstanding contribution is in the
fact that he has revealed our land
to us. our origins, our settlement
and the unique character of light
and color in Canada. Lismer said
that Jackson is not a modern ar-
tist; he professes no creed or at-
tachment to any school or "ism":
and is not a city artist. Lismer said
Jackson does not paint in terms of
the mechanical, psychological, or
abstract echo of something theor-
etical or of some social commen-
tary. Lismer claims that he paints
from visual contact with nature
and that his reflective range and
summarizing technique Is alert and
vigorous.
As a spokesman for the "Group
of Seven". Jackson once said: "We
frankly abandoned our attempts
at literal painting and treated our
subjects with the freedom of the
decorative designer."
said that he had expeot^j
effort, but that he was >vf° «

performance. He oomDJim ^ C

(The author, a freshman student in Arts at Queen's, is especially weM*
qualified to present the current crisis in India. Although he has not
visited India personally, his family for four generations has lived in In*
dia, where, as army officers, and members of the diplomatic corps, thty
have acquired nnparalleled experience and insight Into ttie social, political
and economic status of the Indian sub-continent.)
I would never wish a colony not to achieve Dotnloion status if It '
was ready for it. _ ,
Socialists claim that India was ready for self-government; that 11
was a strong nationalist spirit that ended British rule, and when W6
were gone, men like Nehru, could rule ii stead. They said that if Britain
had done anything for the Indians .she had been moving too slowly; the
ordinary peasant farmer had gained nothing by British protection and
would be far happier ruled by his own people; India was not being ruled
democratically enough.
Was India ready for s^-government?
Canadian Status
Canada achieved Dominion status in a very short tkne because the
Canadians themselves were Europeftns. The EJngltsh and French have
always been adept at governing themselves democratically. Asiatics are
different. Indians are not yet sufficiently educated to have a democracy.
They must therefore be ruled by benettcial despots while they are
educated so that they stop regarding ballot boxes as some form of black
magic, "nieir own princes were hardly beneficial despots. It is a well-
known (act that Indian Rajas are anior\g the richest men in the world. '
This wealth was taken from a land of poverty-stricken peasants.

Political Pressure
It was not Indian nationalist spirit that removed the British. It vraa
constant and increasing political pressure applied by Russia and th«
USA as well as communist pressure from within. The rank and file 4^
the Indian population didn't want the English to leave. Some peasants
were led by communists and others by their local lords who wanted t«
be free to act as they wished. It will be remembered that aft«r the
breakoff of India the State of Hyderabad refused to forfeit British pro-
tection.
India A Continent
There was no nationalist spirit in India because India is not a na-
tion, it is a continent. The people speak 130 dialects belonging to sfci
distinct families* of speech. There are nine great religions. When the
British arrived it was a continent composed of many nations. Previous-
ly Moslems and Hindus cut each others' throats almost on sight. Under
British protection they were becoming more and more tolerant to one
another untU some time in the future they would pobably have been
as peaceful as Protestants and Catholics in Canada.
Slaughter
The major proof of my whole argument Is the slaughter t"hat fol-
lowed British withdrawal, which Britons had always prophesied would
follow an early withdrawal. Under British protection the people of In-
dia had spread from their former homes and the national and reiii^ious
groups had become mixed. In time this would have tended towards
complete religious tolerance. In fact, since we left India, as many Indiana
have been killed there in massacres as members of the British Empire
and Commonwealth were killed during World War Two.
The Result
We left India leaving a political vacuum. This Is being fiUed by
communism. The "Intelligence Digest" reports that in about five years
India will be enUrely communist controlled. Our withdrawal left India
weak and divided, and at the mercy of the Rdssian conqueror. Is this
the way to Indian self-government?

and holding the Red and Whites to
7 points. High scorer for PHE was
Alma Hatch with 5 baskets. Sally
.Wallei' was next with 4. Joan
Mooney was top girl for UC when
Bhe chalked up five points. The
bigihlight of the game was some
terrific guarding by both teams,
Mary Lewis doing an outstanding

Tlie second game was more one-

that time arrives.
The Redmen Will be Varsity's
first opponents on the Intercol-

eam.e slated for Montreal on Janu-
ary 25.ih.
This year's quintet of Redmen
will be one that has to depend on
speed and set patterns of play in-
Btead of rebounding powers as they
are lacking in height. The tallest
man on the team at the present
time is Dave Winship who stands
6' 5", but this is his first year of

Soccer Finttl
Today At 2:30
Archery
Today at 12:30 the interlaculty
soccer final will be held on the
Back Campus. The Arts Faculty
Cup, emblematic of intramural
soccer supremacy, is the prize
sought by the Trinity "A" and the
U.C, soccer teams.
For one of the t«ams, playing In
the final seems an annual event,
while for the other it is a novelty.
This is the fifth consecutive year
that Trinity has played in the fin-
al, while it is more than a decade
since U.C. has attained that height.
The contending teams have al-
ready met twice this year. The
first game produced a 1-1 tie,
while the second the Redmen up-
se', the Buttery Boys 3-1. U.C. ad-
vanced to the finals the hard way,
having been 4prced into three ov-
ertime games before eUminating
Dents and St. Mike's. Thinity
dumped Emmanuel and Senior
Skule on the playoff trail.
The general concensus of opin-
ion is that the 1>:i,nity team is not
the powerhouse of previous years
With some talented additions to
last year's scrappy team. U.C. has
produced a vastly improved squad, I
which headed the fh-st group. posV
ing an unbeaten record. Trinity
has dropped only one game, and
that to U.C.
U.C. has a strong defensive team.
Fred Brauer in goal, thanks to
the strong defensive play ot full-
backs Doug Dies and Ochem Dur-
ing, has allowed only five goals
in nine games. The half-line
has carried the mail, helped by the
good left wing play of Murray
Jackson. Six of the Trinity team
— Wareham, Snowdon, Gaunt, Hal
Macdonald, Rowan and Tim
Clarkson — are veterans of the 1949
championship team.
The game will be refereed by
Bobby Auld. If weather conditions
are right, it should be the best
soccer game played on the campus
this year.
The win puts the UC squad intoi
playoff position against Senior
Meds, perennial contenders for the
lacrosse title, who defeated St.
Mike's 8-4 last Monday in their
semi-final game. Playoffs will be
the best two out of three games
with the first contest slated for this
Thursday at noon in the main gym
and the other , two scheduled for
Monday and Wednesday of next
week.
The Skulemeri went ahead in the
first period on a fast, screened shot
that the UC goEilie never "saw. The
Red and White erew evened things
up half way through the second
period when several of them gang-
ed up on Bates in the Skule net
who up to then had made several
spectacular saves. >
The Engineers seemed to have a
definite edge in the third stanza
and managed to xegain the lead.
Towards the end of regulation time
the UC attack caught fire and
started to apply the pressure, tying
up the gaiile and forcing, it into
overtime.
During the overtime periods, UC
took over the role of aggressor and
was definitely the superior team.
Their three counters in overtune
play made Jhe win a decisive one,
the fhrst two coming in the first
overtime period and the fifth goal
in the last one. Dutch Young's ap-
pearance late in ttie game made all
the difference for the winners.
Dutch has been one of the leading
lights in the UC lacrosse scene for
four years and his abbreviated per-
formance in this game was no ex-
ception.
Scorers for UC were Watson and
Young with two g»_als each and
Kopsky with a single. McKay and
EteWar did the scoring for the En-
gineers.
Lacrosse fans are in for a treat
in the next week with three playoff
games between the two top teams
the campus in the offing.

Tie SMC 2-2
In 3rcl Period
A_ figbtlng senior M«is team
came back in thejiying minutes
of the last period-yesterday to tie
a smoother and faster St, Mike'3
A team, 2-2. Although the double,
blue squad outshot the Medsnieu
17-8, they seemed to lack the ac-
tual scorihg p_uiich when inside
the blue-line.
In the first period the play was
fairly even but St. Mike's were def.
initely the smoother and faster
team, while Meds. although they
often ganged the puck and let po.
sitional hockey go by the boards,
managed to keep the puck out of
their own end fairly well. The.,
lone tally came from Cole of st.
Mike's when he slapped at a loose
puck at the ten minute mark..
The first half of the" second was
St. Mike's all the way and had
they not lacked scoring punch they
could easily have notched three or
four goals. Hunt got the St. Mike's
goal by firing in a rebound.
From this point on the double-
blue squad simply coasted along
and before the final hell had gone,
McGllllvray of Meds, who had
played well throughout the whole
game, fired one past Grossl in the
St. Mike's nets. Then Cosens de-
flected a shot from the corner in-
to the twine, to tie the score. The
score was obviously the result of
a harder working Meds team who
took advantage of some sloppy
clearing by the St. Mike's de-
fence and who refused -to be beat-
en.
Except for one or two lapses,
McDonald and Harwich played
good defensive hockey for St.
Mike's and the Cole. Hunt, Kane
line was best up front. For Meds,
the goal getters, McGillivray and
Cosens, were best.

Laval Saturday night.
The team has been cut "pretty
well down to size, a'hd there has
been quite a bit of jpggling of
the lines since that 10-2 pasting
last Friday at the hands of Peo-
ples'. Forward Jack MacKenzie'

none-too-strong defence. -He teams
up with Joe Kane on the first line,

off with Fasan, a rookie who
seems to have caught a regular
post with the team, though Paul
Prendergast is still up as a spare
defenceman.
The first line Is composed of
Rope at centre, with Adams and
Weldrake at the wings. Stevens
centres the second line and Arrow-
smith and Frey flank him. and the
third line is composed of Pox as

I All efforts should be made to Increase the efi
± y of the reserve forces and to build up a
I tUn soldiery. There is not the slightest indica-
Ln that this leads to a military state or a war-
ke spirit, taie note of the Swiss.
War benefits no one. There can.be no victor

Canada must be prepared to meet ajny attack
Bunched against her and the present statfe of
rt<rnational affairs indicates considerable urgency.
Liberal
The threat of Oonununlsm is Canada's chief
danger today. We must prepare to defend our
shores and fulfil our international commitments.
Our army and " navy units are serving in Korea
and will soon serve in Europe. Our -urplus armg
are equipping other North Atlantic Treaty forces.
Our armed services have been strengthened in
both actifve and reserve departments. We must be
ready to support them and if necessaiT . to adopt
conscription without regional consideration, Our
dependence on the United States must be recog-
nized,'but this does not Imply slavish devotion
to Washington. Canada must be a free associate
in the defence of democracy.
An integrated program of defence production
and weapon standardisation with the U.S. forces
will be impemented^ Canada is now forced to re-
arm in th& face of increasing arming of other
. unfriendly nations. However, Canada remains
more than willing to enter any East-West arms
reduction program that shows any possibility of
proper enforcement and progress coward peace for
our world.
CCF
ILPP
Is the tremendous arms race necessary? The
-ijalHiiir Progressive Party maintains it is not. It is
haiy bringing the world dangerously close to war.
ffhe LPP advocates universal arms reduction based
[on an agreement for peace among the big powers,
pt believes that world war is not inevitable and
„iat If the will of the majority of the people for
peace js advocated strongly enough, governments^
rill be forced to seek a peaceful solution to world
problems,
A look at the world situation shows that the
main trouble spots are in the so-called "back-
jnarrt" countries. The movements for national in-
pependence in -these areas are justified. They .
ihouid not be suppressed by military force, used
"prove" Soviet aggression and to justify th?„.
wms race.
Business men have expressed fear of" an eco-
[Comic crisis coming In the event of a "peace scare.?*
maments have Ijeen hailed as solving economic
difficulties. They did this but only fqr' a time.
Pow they are only producing high, prices, lay-offs i
pd general hardship.
A policy of peace, friendship and trade with',
1 countries would increase Canada's welfare and
lier best defence.
The OCF Party believes that we should be
guided in our defence efforts by the policies of
the United Nations. On the whole we have sup-
ported the present defence policies, but with reser-
vation. We have emphasized that_jnilitary prep-
aration is not the only defence against Com-
munism. The OOP considers that aid to back-
ward countries which could fall victims to
Communism is equally important to our defence.
We consider it very Important that a better balance
be made between direct defence, and defence in
form of aid. We believe that not enough is being
spent in the latter form. Besides, it is important
that we do not cut social security at the price
of defence.
We support the principle of collective security
through the United Nations and. hence, we sup-
port the action taken in Korea by Canada through
the United Nations. Our party believes that
atomic weapons should bC' outlawed providing that
atomic energy is placed under international con-
trol with a system of continuous international
inspection. We believe that regional pacts such as
the North Atlantic Pact are not wholly desirable.
Since the United Nations has been only partly
effective in this regard, we do support the general
set-up of the Atlantic Pact as essential to our
defence.
Finally, the CCF does not Tjelieve that mili-
tary conscription is necessary or wise at the present
time.
Party Preferences
Will Be Revealed
In Campus Voting
Tomorrow the University of Toronto will see its first campus
Mock Parliament election. After many preliminary arrangements made
last winter and still more difficulties this fall with date, the election
wUl be held tomorrow from 11.00 a.m. to 2.30 p.m. The Political
Sciencp Club has made all the arrangements and will officiate at
the ballot boxes during the election.
Students will be able to vote in eight (different places on the
campus. One in each of: Victoria College, University College. Trinity
College, St. Michael's .College. Hart Huuse. the Economics Building,
the Medical Building, and the Skule Building. At each of these poUmg
stations there will be scrutineers from each of the political parties
on the campus, and a non-political student provided by the Political
Science Club wlio will act as returning officer.
All students voting will have their A.T.L. cards stamped or marked
so that no student will vote twice. This will also prevent the p035lbility
of one of the parties having its members vote over and over to pack
the election.
Both the MacDonald-Cartier Club and the CCF club have already
held pep rallies to bolster their position, and put their policies in
front of the students. The Libera! Club will hold a pep rally today
at noon in front of Hart House. It will consist of campaign speeches
by the club heads, and entertainment by the Mudville Harmonlsers.
E. B. Jolliffe was the guest of the CCF Club at their meeting on
Monday. The MacDonald-Cartier, on the same day, conducted a meet-
ing to the blaze of bagpipes at which David Fry, rV Trln.. told the
members the party platform and asked for good support.
The Mock Parliaments have been run by the University^ of Toronto
Debating Union up until now. and it was only last year that it; was
turned over to the Poli Sci ciub.
Tills year the Legislative- Chamber will be used for the Motk
Parliaments. Since it cannot be used white the Legislative Assembly
is in session, the parliaments j^iil have to be held later, one this month,
and one some time in January, Resolutions for debate will be provided
by the party asked to form the government, with amendments by the
opposition.
The subjects to be discussed will be on any level and will not
necessarily be any part of any party platform. The members of the
assembly may vote as they like. but. like a regular legislatui*e, the
government will not introduce any bills not acceptable to its sup-
porters.

The Liberal Club is basing its
appeal to students In the Mock
Parliament elections on the basis
of the general support of the
party and on the club's record on
the campus, according to John
Mcdcoff, president of the Liberal
Club. He said that the Liberal Clfcb
had never been a "shrlnlcmg violet
and would add life to the Moclc
Parliament.
Medcoff said that the Conserva-
tives should remember that a party
should represent all the people. He
then said that the campus Liberals
agreed with much that the CCI
has to say on such things as so-
cial security. He also said that
while they do not believe in free
enterprise right or wrong, profits
must be shared by the manufac-
turer, laborer, and the consumer
David Fry. president of the Mac-
donald-Cartier Club, said that con-
servatlsm is a political PhUosophs^
He predicted that the conservative
of the other three parties and
stated .the Conservative Party was
the oldest and longest lasting. Fry
said that the Conservative Party
was all for women and also read
part of a 15-point manifesto on
their belief In the relation of the
liquor laws.
Parker asked Fry in the dis-
cussion period that followed if Fry
could lead his party to the polls on
the Uquor platform that Fry had
outlined. The CCF Club presi-
dent pointed out that the program
he proposed was a direct contra-
diction to the letter Premier Prost
had sent to the Temperance Feder-
ation Pry answered that he was
leading his party on this compiis
on this very Issue.
A speaker from the floor then
asked Parker if the CCF parts-
was afraid of being labelled "red .
Parker answered that the CCP s
reasons tor modifying their stand
on socialism from their early days
Sas nothing to do with the fear o
being labelled "red". He said that
too much socialism can lead to re-
strictions In the Individual's free-

Book Store Story
The following is the First in a Series of Two Articles on
the University of Toronto Press Book Store. Opinions
Expressed are Not Ncjjessarily those of The Varsity.
B; DENISE RICHARDS
Vote But
The "vote as you like but vote" slogan ha» 1>een hurled
•t the public somewhat mercilessly during the last few
Ifeeks. And for University of Toronto students, the hue and
»ry will continue till after tfie Mock Parliament elections
this Thursday. We would suggest 4hat any desire to give
yia.y to political indigestion or campaign fatigue should be
jrithstood till Friday. .
' ' For the first time, elections to the Mock Parlaiment
have been thrown open to the whole campus. Every student
is eligible to vote. But the success of such a campus wide
•empaign will depend entirely upon the number of students
who take the time to vote.
The Mock Parliament is potentially at least, one of the
more valuable organizations on the campus. Like any other,
h is dependent upon student interest to make it successful,
but it does offer an opportunity for students to learn about
political platforms by taking part in parliamentary debates.
Possibly, the campaign programs presented by the
eompeting parties have lacked the colour which might have
been expected and which would have helped to ensure a
good vote. At all times they seem to have mirrored the
ideas of their big brothers in Ottawa and Queen's Park.
Campus parties have, or should have, a remarkable
opportunity not only to follow but form and interpret the
basic ideas of their parties. They may not have made the
most of their chance in the past, but the future, as always,
offers possibilities for change. But the future of campus
|)«rties lies in the hands of the students.
We cannot bring ourselves to say "vote as you like, but
wte." Just "before you vote, think" — a little.

ESTABHSHED 1880
Herabet Canadlim University Press
Pulilished five times a weok by the Students' Adtnlnimrattve
Council ol the University oi Toronto. Opinions expressed in these
cohiinns are not necessarily the opinions of the Students* Adminis-
trative Council.
Prom Its inauguration two years ago, the Uni-
versity of Toronto Press Book Store has tried to
be something more than a text-mart. The shelves
of "non-texts", the stationery counter, the seasonal
Christmas supplies, the magazine rack and the
recent dispensers of food, drink and tobacco have
all 'helped to broaden the interpretation of the
Book Store's function in the University.
However, in view of its peculiar position as a
University Book Store, it has to concentrate most
of its energies on providing the students with
necessary texts. But it is in this very respect
that it has received so many complaints, and has
,^ en -accused of inefficiency and a lack of con-
rti for student needs.
In all fairness it must be said that some students
and professors interviewed on the subject, although
by no lAeans the majority, have expressed ^ttieir
admiration of the "simply marvellous job" done
by the Book Store in view of the vast number ol
titles It handles each year.
But the validity of most of the complaiiits has
been recogniaedby the University College Faculty
Council. Realizing that "books- are essential stu-
dent tools in the learning enterprise, and that a
ready supply of them is equally essential in .lwei>-
ing up with class work and in getting full advan-
tage from lectures, and that many complaints
of delays and short supply in textboeks in staff
orders had been expressed," tlie UC Council asked
a committee to look into the matter.
The committee discussed very frankly with A. O.
Rankin, general manager of the University Press,
the complaints and difficulties involved for the
Book Store. It was made clear that the Book
Store has no other wish than to serve students
aaid staff in this respect, and that although there
are many difficulties in the way, the authority
would welcome any constructive criticism to this
end."
The Council asked thi^ committee to continue
to (^rate as a medium of communication. Pro-
fessor McCurdy of the Philosophy Department
agreed to receive specific written complaints and
suggestions. \
The necessity for the existence of such a com-
mittee indicates that this problem, is not one to be
ignored. And it would seem that something is
very wrong with the Book Store when students
are still unable to obtain important texts as late
as November. Book Store officials have an ex-
planation for every instance, but in many cases
the excuses seem only to indicate inefficiency.
The position is this: all staff members are ask-
ed in the spring to send in lists of the books their
students will need the following year, with an
estimate of the number that will be needed. The
Book Store officials then estimate the size of their
orders, contact the publishers, and, in theory.
the number of new texts reeded. Occasion
Victoria College students coijiplicate matter
buying books at the University Book Stoie ix^J'^
that's that. .
But in practice there are innumerable com-
plications. Often professors are not appointed until
the fall, and thus there is a considerable delay in
placing orders. It is difficult to estimate accurately
of their own. Publishers often promise a
ntunber of books for a certain date and
find at the last minute that they are unabif
fill the order.
The fact remains that the Book Store not
fails to allow for these contingencies, but also
on the side of caution. Several professors c
plained that the Book Store had not even
enough copies to supply their estimates.
This seems inexcusable, but it is characti
The Book Store's delicate financial condition i
it unwilling to risk overstocking. And, in almosi
every case, it is this excess of caution that }
to be causing the delays.
Further complaints deal with the difficulty
obtaining any specific information from the Book
Store employees on wh«i ft book that is not in
stock can be expected. In other book stores it ^
common practice to phone the publisher and ten
the customer when his order will be filled, Tblt
information is not always accurate, but it usually
provides the customer with some inttication of hov
long he win have to wait, so that he can m&ke
bis plans accordingly.
GeoeraUy, tbe ''Bo<A Store GirlaT have been ae,
cased of ignorance and indifference. Perhaps ttj^
is unfair,, but many examples have been cllea
which seem to indicate that a more thorough
knowledge of the stock and more interest in tlis
problem of the textless student would be appreci-
ated by many people an the campus.
Suggestions of ways to remedy the prohJems o(
the Book Store range from "turn it into a student
union and give student business to private enter-
prise" to "have the students take over." Neitlier
of these extremes is really practical. Why? Tiie
dbnvenience of having a book store on the campui
catering exclusively to student needs cannot be
denied. On the other hand, there seems to be a
definite need for contihuity, if not outright
autocracy, in the management of any book store,
that could not be provided by a student organiza-
tion.
It wouM certainly be of some benefit, however,
if a student committee were formed to handle
the liaison work between the Book Store officials
and the campus. In this way it might be possible
to estimate the probable number of used booka
to be sold each year, and, even more important,
find out just how many student are dissatisfied
with the Book Store — something that woi^d
settle once and for all the question of whether or
not students are merely being hypercritical of the
services provided.
If this is not done, there seems to be an indica-
tion that an Increasingly large number of students^
will buy their texts 'elsewhere. The Book Store

Set Up 8 Polling Booths
In 1st Campus Election
Yesterday Political Scierice Club President John Fairly announced the final arrange-
nienta for the University of Toronto's first Mock Parliament campus election today. It will
be conducted from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m., at eight polling stations.
"An attempt was made in every case," said Fairly, "To set up the polling booth in
the busiest part of the buildings they are in," In detail, the campus election polling
booths are located as follows :
Mcdioal B«Uaine ~ oear the
medical ofHoe.
Skole Honse — main hall.
Hart House — tn th« rotunda.
Economics Bnildiiv — inside the
Berth door.
Victoria College — front haiL
St. MOobaei'B Oofleee — main halt
TrtWtty Collese — rotonda.

Political Science Club, and Claire Bacchus, 4th year Pres., examining
of the ballots and the boxes to be used in today's election.
Univenritr CoUcfe — raionda.
Besides the depaty retumiixg of-
ficer at each booth there will be
scrutineers from each of the campus
political parties able to fltid. one

When the ntudeot picks up his
baUot today it will read: "Which of
the following parties do you wish
to form the government In the Mock
Parliament." Then the four recog
nized parties are listed in alpha'
betical order with a space left for a

The total balloting was approxi-

body, according to the McMaster
Silhouette. The Silhouette reported
that in spite of the figures, feeling
on the Russian students reached a
high pitch.
The StUionette said that od« oC
t.he most significant factors in de-
termining student opinion was a
handbill which was distributed to
students by an off-campus group
on the Saturday before (the vote.
Th« Silhouette added that two
young men and a woman, who were
not students at McMaster, dis-
tributed mimeographed sheets call-
ing on the students to vote in fa-
vor of the tour. The organization
responsible for this called itself
the "Youth Friendship Leagx*".
Both the National Federation of
Canadian University Students and
the IntemaUonal Student Service
executives at McMaster denied any
knowledge of the Youth Friendship
League or of its affiiiations.
The consensus of opinion amonglrt
students who received the hand-
bill. The Silhouette reported, was
that "the whole thing smacked of
communist tactics". Many were re^
ported as expressing the view that
if outside intervention had not
been attempted, they would pro-
bably have been more in favor o(
the tour.
The decision to ask student
opinion in the matter was made at
a meeting of the Student Council
last month. The ballot was worded:
"W»uld you be in favor of a toor

Incomplete Result
To China Debate
-UN Club Council
A proposal by the Russian dele-
gate to admit Red China to the
United Nations, amended by France
to read: "when the People's Gov-
ernment of China shows its willing-
ness td co-operate with the UN",
was detoated inconclusively at a
Mock Security Council meeting of
the UN club last night.
D. Tumbull, III SiPS. as rep-
resentative for Russia proposed that
"Whereas a person who believes he
is the representative of China does
not represent China at all and has
no authority from the right Chinese
government, be it resolved that the
delegate appointed by the People's
Government of China be recognized
as the Chinese representative to
the UN."
The French delegate, Devld Trent,
II Trinity, proposed the amendment
that the Chinese Reds be ^ld^litted
only when they "recognize the
authority of t^ie UN."
As a result of the amendment, In-
dia and Yugoslavia voted against
the motion although they had
spoken in favour of the original
Russian proposal. Russia abstained
because of the French amendment.
China and the USA also abstained.
Canada, Prance. Pakistan, the UK,
and Norway voted tn favour of the
amended motion.
Egypt walked out of the meeting
because the agenda was not
cept€d in proper proceduraLmeth
Although none of the Big p?^ I
exercised their veto, the motion
not carried. It is neceasary to hn I
an overall majority of seven !l 1

for tiie Russian suggestion.

will be held In the Hart House De-
bates Room at 8 pm. next Wed-

merce Club has remained a "male
stronghold" after an open meet-
ing of its membei;s failed yesterday
to ratify an amendment which
would have made all students pro-
ceeding to the degree' of Bachelor
of Commerce eligible for mem-
bership in the club. President
Ian Baker told the members of the
club who attended the luncheon in
Diana Sweets that their "tradi-
tions will be retained" after a vote
of 35 to 35 failed to provide the
necessary two-thirds majority.
John Corkill, IV Commerce, said
that there was an old axiom that
to be interested in women is to be
perpetually broke. Therefore he
argued that the rpeeting was uncon-
stitutional and was not a represen-
tative meeting since only the monl-
ed class (the luncheon cost 75
cents) could attend, and those at-
tending were therefore not inter-
ested in women. His objection was
over-ruled hy MacDonald since the
constitution merely called for a ten
per cent turnout of members and
made no mention of CorkiU's o*h
jectlon.
The amendment had allowed for
all male and all female acUvlUes
and would not have spoiled activi-
ties such as the squash tourna-
ment in Hart House or, MacDon-
ald gave as an example, a knit-
ting circle if the club had accept-
ed female members. He said that
there had been spasmodic attempts
by the coeds to join the club since
its inception in 1920.
He described this year's attempt
I as aggressive and ^ell organized.
The amendment was presented to
the general membership after be-
ing approved unanimously by the
Paul Baker, public relations t»
ecutlve for the Toronto Transpo^
tatlon Comnllssion, spoke to tha
club on Toronto's new subway and
illustrated his talk with slides.
Baker estimated that the subwaj.
would cost within 5 per cent of 40
millloQ dollars, although originatl)
both the Young and the Queen Sk
subways were estimated at SO
million. He attributed the la>
creased cost to the rise in prices
and wages since 1944, but also said
that this would be the first sub-
way In the world to be built witli*
out a bonus or grant from govenh
ment.
YoDge St. carries more peoplf
than any other surfape line in Uit
world. Baker said, and then Iw
showed figures to illustrate Idi
point. Despite this, he claimw
Uiat if the street cars were pa
slowed down by private traftift
they would be able to run on i.
schedule that would provide •
seat for everyone, even duriot
rush hours.

BahaVllah, Christ The Same;
From One God Claims Baha 7
HMoting from the BAHAI scrip-
es to show the relationship be-
een Baha'u'llah, the prophet of
Baha'i Faith, and Christ the
Kitre of the Christian religion,
Nablo, IV Sociology said, "No
istliictioD do we make between
of His Messengers." The top-
o( the meeting of the Baha'i Stu-
Group yesterday was "Baha-
llah equals Christ."
*T:hese messengers of God are all
it down from the heaven of the
" of God, and as they all pro-
laim His irresistible Faith, they.
therefore are regarded as one soul
and the same person. For they all
drink from the one Cup of the love
of God, and all partake of the fruit
of the same Tree of Oneness."
Thus Baha 'is believe in the Pro-
gressive Revelation of God's WiU to
man. Each of the Founders of
the great world religions is be-
lieved to speak with the voice of
God. Each lives a life which per-
fectly exemplifies the attributes
of God. ^Therefore the Baha'is
believe that to reject any of the
Manifestations of God is to im-

its director, has his own theories
on the art of film-making.
.."Cinema is the world's newest
art medium, and perhaps the most
versatile. At best, it can com-
bine many of the distmctive quaU-
ties of pamting, literature and
drama. While it may laclc the
beauty of colour and depth, it has
gripping life, and an unequalled
vastness of scope in subject mat-
ter and treatment", he said.
"One result of cinema's com-
ing into its own as an art. is that
now no study of a national cul-
ture can be complete witliout some
acquamtance with the country's
films." he felt. "This is particu-
larly true of French culture, be-
cause the film industry of France
has reached a particularly high
standard o; quality. The excel-
lence of French films has almost
become a legend in places where
people have little opportunity tor
seeing them and forming more
concrete opinions."

ers of God of the past.
To show the parallels between
the life of Baha'u'llah and the life
of Christ, quotations from the writ-
ings of Abdul-Baha. and some of
Baha'uUah were cited. "Baha'u'-
llah was a prisoner twenty-^ive
years. During this time He was
subjected to the indignities and re-
vilement of the people. He was
persecuted, mocked and put in
chains. He bore all these ordeals
and calamities in order that our
hearts might becqpe enkindled and
radiant, our spirits be glorified,
our faults become virtues, our ig-
norance transformed into knowl-
edge."
Thus according to the Baha'if
the essential spiritual teachings of
Baha'u'llah and Christ are the
same since their source is in the
same God. They are equally in-
fallllble and equally adapted to
the needs of the particular people
to whom they were sent by God.
So it is in terms of their relation-
ship with God and their purpose
in being sent to tlie world of hu-
manity that Baha'u'llah and Christ
are said to be equal. Their teach-
ing differ in that they are adapted
to different peoples in different
times.

Music Saves Talk
As Frosh Oriented
At Trinity Dance
There was a lot of music, little
talJting, and no faculty members at
the third Freshman Orientation
Tea Danoe, held in Trinity Col-
lege's Buttery yesterday afternoon.
This is the third dance in the
series designed to introduce fresh-
men of the various art^ colleges to
each other, and to faculty mem-
bers.
The dance series is the outcome
of an effort begun last spring to
plan an integrated freshman re-
ception for the fall. When the pro-
posal was brought up at the Stu-
dents' Council, it wa5 decided to
hold a pilot run of the scheme in
the four Arts colleges this year,
and to extend the plan to the rest
of the university next fall if it
proved successful.
When the college representatrives
met last spring, however, they
could come to no decision regard-
ing plans for the orientation
scheme. A proposal made by some
graduates and faculty members in-
cluded lectures and discussion
groups with the faculty on such
subie.cts as the purpose of the uni-
versity, and the place of the uni-
versity in modern society. This
would not conflict with the college
receptions, it was pointed out. since
the "academic" portion of the re-
ception could be held entirely in
the mornings.
In the early fall, representatives
of the four colleges suggested a
series of four tea dances to the
SAC. each one to be held by one
of the colleges, at which students
and faculty could mix. «
•The dances will be lots of chairs
and little dancing," explained
Paul ForestaU, IV St. Mike's, one
of the proponents of the scheme.
Instead of dancing all the time,
he said, freshmen could sit and
talk with professors. The danca
would be used only to break down
formality.
The plan was adopted by the
SAC. which turned it over to its
Co-Ordination Committee. This
committee played no part in tha
organization of the Trinity dance,
which was planned by the Trinity
first year presidents, Ruth Charles-
worth and Barry Baker. '
So far there have been three
dances held. The first one at St.
Mike's had about ten faculty mem-
bers present (according to Fores-
tall), but due to bad publicity only
St. Mike's freshmen were pres-
ent, Tlie second was held at Uni-
versity College Nov. 23. Tliat time
publicity was good, and over 100
^tiirlents turned out. But because
the letters were mailed late, only
one faculty member was present.

years, he reported, and is usually
an exceedingly large gatherhig of
students (he estimated about two
thousand will attend this confer-
ence).
DeMarsh estimated that In the
past over 20.000 students have gone
to the world ml.ssion fields after
attending these conferences dur-
ing toe 64 years in Which they have
be«& held. The International situa-
tion te making it necessary for the
Cbur«h to review the missions and
to discover aocial and occupational
frontiers at home and abroad
rather than seeing only the chal-
lenges of geographical frontiers, he
said.
DeMarsh explained that the In-
ternational work of the UN and
reconstruction plans such as the
ColOTnbo Plan suggested some of
the new areas towards which
Christian technicians and profes-
sional people are looking as ef-
fective areas for Christian witness
missions.

What's in a Name^l
By BIU. RAY NEB
Poets and musicians have long sung' of the magic Incoi-po-
in the names of far-off places. To me there is also a magic i„^'*^
mysterious and sometimes unpronounceable names of the rarer chein^'
Thulium, Dysprosium. Krypton, Praseodymium, Ytti ^^"^
and the rest. ^^^'moi^ j
The lucky chemist develops at least a nodding acquaintance nti il
these unknowns, but to those outside the fold moat of them ret^Sl
a pleasant sounding mystery. 1
Take for example Beiyllium. one of the rarer alkaUne-eartb met, I
which was discovered by Vaugelin in 1798. It occurs in the min^ I
beryl, a silicate of alumina and berylla. This ore Is faihiliar to uTf* |
some of its colored forms, known as emeralds and aquamarines I
Id appearance. Beryllium is a steel grey metal, extremely hard n I
third lighter than aluminum, and melts at 1350 degrees Centic-ra'^* I
It is seventeen times more transparent to X-rays than alumim^ I
and so is used in the construction of X-ray tubes. Recently I
properties have been utilized in electrodes for neon signs. ^ j
UnUl very little was known about this met^l, and invi
tion was begun to determine what part it could play in the
developing alloy metal field. It has been combined principally y,,^ I
copper, aluminum, and iron. In its commercially pure state. E-3i yiii,^ I
is extremely brittle, but when two per cent is alloyed with copper |
is a resulting increase in tensile strength of 230 per cent. Beryiiim! I
in alloys produces many other tlesirable effects, such as improved I
electrical conductivity, resistance to salt water corrosion, and increasprt I
hardness. The density of castings Is increased due to the elimination I
of gas holes. I
Beryllium -copper has a very high resistance to fatigue laiiuf^j I
caused by repeated loads. Because of this and other desirable propei tiei I
it is perhaps the most common of the Beryllium alloys. Its uses include I
brushes for electric motors, heavy shotdc sprmgS required in aircrai( I
landing gear, and pump used in the ti-ansfer of corrosive fluids b*.
cause of its acoustic properties, it Is even suitable for use in musical
instruments.
Berylliam and its compounds have been shown to be toxic under
certain conditions. This fact has restricted its use commercially jtt
recent years.
And tbm there is Zirconium. ...

Keith Girard, the conductor, is
well qualified for his responsible
position by his training in the
Faculty of Music at this univer-
sity, where he received his degree
of Bachelor of Music last year.
In the orchestral part of the pro-
gram, the most familiar piece is
Mozart's Jupiter Symphony. Re-
garding its interpretation, conduc-
tor Girard says: "If the composer
Is dead, we don't always know".
<Mozart has been dead for 160
years.) He illustrates his point by
f^iting the twp different interpreta-
tions of this symphony by Tosca-
ninl and Beecham, both of them
very highly regarded conductors.
Toscanini tends to take the fast
movements at a good clip, whereas
Beecham prefers a more deliberate
pace.

"Alceste" Is the prelude to a tragic
opera, which Is to Ije revived by the

Good Old Rawhide
Back On The Air
Millions cheered as old Raw-
hide returned to the radio last
Monday at his old time. 6:40 p.m.
At least so it seemed to that vener-
able philosopher. After a little
trouble over going on the air the old
fellow dozed off and dieamt that
he was making a Royal Tour of
Canada. Millions were on hand
to welcome him to his old stamp-
ing-ground. Halifax.
Naturally, aU the boys were
there to report this event for the
CBC, Marvin, the director of the
company, was on the roof of Pier
21 and though he never actually
saw the precession he described
the glee of the spectators as they
bashed in the doors of cars left
on the parade route.
The city hall commentator got
on the air without knowing it and
almost disgraced the CBC but for-
tunately someone had a recording
of an old German folk-song to cov-
er up for him. Peter Lorre r^
ported the proceedings from under
the steps of the city haU. The
whole broadcast came to an abrupt
end when the city hall commen-
tator smiled at Rawhide and was
cut down by the body-guard of
Mounties. Rawhide woke up at
this point in time to take the pro-
gram off the air.
All of which goes" to prove that
there is no keeping the old fellow
oft the air. The CBC tried and
failed, so we can hear liis pungent
comments about Ufe, literature and
music. The program is on Mon-
day, Wednesday and Friday even-
ings—twenty to seven on CBL.

Five matches in the Junior In-

were run off yesterday. These
were preliminaries in the finals
which will be held in Hart House
M ft part of Saturday's Athletic
yight. The eliminations will con-
ttaue today.
t Vhere was a turnout oE about 40
•r BO fans, about all the wrestling
room will hold, who were reward-
ed by five peppy bouts.
: The first contest was in the 167

MacKenzie of Meds and Irv Sals-

BOXING
The first four matches of the No-
vice Interfaculty Boxing Tourna-
ment were held last night at five
p.m. in the boxing room in Hart
House. All four of them weie pre-
liminary bouts. The bouts were in
the 130 lb., 140 lb., 155 lb., and
heavyweight class.
The 130 lb. fight was between D.
Hill from Vic and B. Blanchard
from SPS, Blanchard winning by
unanimous decision. The bout
started off pretty evenly, and
though Hill had an advantage in
reach over Blanchard the latter
was more aggressive. From the
second round on Uie scrappy little
Skuleman started crowding his
opponent and finished with a defi-
nite advantage.
In the 140 lb. match. J. Fedder
from Dents earned a split decision
against E. C. Lett from UC, though
he also had to overcome his op'
ponent's advantage of reach. It
was an exciting bout, for apart
from ttie difference in size both
were very evenly
round. Phelan of Skule and Deck
of Meds fought in the same di-
vision with Phelan taking the win
by a faU at 1:18 of the first.
contestants
matched.
The 155 lb. semi-final between
H. Tllson from U.C. and S. Her-
zog from Architecture, which Til-
son won by a split decision, featur-
ed some very good boxing, though
it was shghtly onesided during the
first two rounds, with Tllson being
the aggressor and Herzog limiting
himself to counterpunching. To-
wards the end though, Herzog start-
ed to mix it up and if he hadnt
run out of steam he might have
taken the decision.
In the heavyweight bout R. Ste-
venson from SPS earned a unani-
mous decision over J. Butler from
Meds. Stevenson was much faster
than his opponent and displayed
a style of boxing seldom seen in
the heavyweight class. Butler'J
shuffling flatfooted style of box-
ing wasn't as effective as it might
have been had he taken full ad-
vantage of his superior weight in
counterpunching.
The other semifinals will be
fought today at 5 p.m. in the box
ing gym. The three judges yester-
day were Bob Dnieper, Norm Green
and Pete Petcoff, and the third
man in the ring was Tony Can-
zano.
The action was a bit slow at the
oeginning with very ragge.". passing,
and far too much bodily contact.
Trinity took a 1-0 lead early in the
;ir3t half, when Tim Clarkson scored
on a pass from Doug Andison, It
was a rather weak shot that got
past UC's goalie, bounced off the
^ost, and rolled into the net, Sec-
onds later Clarkson and Jackson of
Trinity almost scored again but
Brauer made spectacular saves in
the UC goal. After this the play was
carried to the Trinity end of the
field and Russell came close to tying
it up.
At this point the tide changed
and eatcept for one rush by Hugh
Rowan, the Trinity captain, UC
dominated the play. They were in*
scoring position several times but
couldn't find the range, over'-slioot-
ing the goal on several occasions
until Treliving finally pushed the
ball In during a scramble in the
Trinity goalmouth. Actum Doerlng,
playing fullback for UC made a lot
of difference to his team, by break-
ing up most of Trinity's rushes and

the Globe and Mail backed this

The initial responsibility for
permitting such machined democ-
racy to exist on the campus rests
on the Caput. It is ruled by the
letter of the law of constitutional
democracy rather than by its
^irit. Result: one big lemon.
The immediate respon^biUty
for the continued existence of the
lemon rests with the students. If
we want a straight forward Peace
Council Ml the campus, botb for
its clubs, we have to join the
Peace Council at a rapid rate.
We have to dispose trf the present
executive and elect ^ new one
■wiiich will set out to produce a
(program that will contribute to
studies of and action on Peace.
This must be done at Che next
business meetii^ of the Council.
It is up to the students to decide
whether the U. of T. is to have a
Pesice Council or not.

Editor, The Varsity;
I think some explanation is In
order for the so-called Giles Re-
port on the liquor situation. As
a non-party man I was pleased
when the MacDonald - Cartier
Club adopted my report. Unfor-
tunately, owing to the circum-
stances of its presentation, the
philosophy behtod this report
has not been given, so perhaps I
may waste a little of your space
to putting forward my personal
defence of the report.
I have a most basic belief in
the freedom of the individual
and in the sanctity of the fam-
ily relationship, but I realize that
there are occasions when the
state must limit the todivldual's
freedom for the common good.
But the justified control by the
state, is justified only by its
necessity and by the fact that it
limits itself to the material.
Thought control I find unjusti-
fied and personally repulsive.
How is this connected with the
liquor situation? In this way.
The state limitation of drinking
Is, to my mind, far beyond the
regime of necessity. It is in the
realm of downright infringement
upon the basic freedom of the
todlvldual by a group of persons
who wish to inflict their own
views on a minority (perhaps
even a majority). 'Tiie present
laws, in practice, serve only to
force up the price of drink and
to make drinking something dar-
ing. I can think of no non-dog-
matic reason why it should not
be easy to have a drink with
one's meals or at any other time
without food. -
The law prohibiting those
under 21 to drink, I feel, is an
infringement upon the rights o£
the family — a child should be
taught bv his parents how to
drink (or not to), what right
has the state tc Interfere with a
branch of education which can
be managed quite easily by other
and older institutions?
The CCF policy of national-
ization of all drink producers is
not justified by their usual claim
of cutting prices by reducing
capitalist taeffUcency or by
eliminating monopoly profit.
They are going to nationalize
distilleries to prevent advertis-
ing and wlU use the profits to
educate the public in such a
manner as to eliminate eventually
all drinktog. Coming from a long
Une of total abstainers I appre^
elate their disapproval ol hquor.
But to force one's own Ideas on
others is not democracy. It is to-
talitarianism. To depart from an
attempt at objective education
by using the schools and other
educational media to foster the
views of a faction, he It even a
majority faction, is Illiberal. It
is a rank attempt at thought
control. Liquor to Itself is not
Important. But the Idea of free-
dom of thought and opinion be-
ing undermined by Insidious
state propaganda to the schools
is serious. And I am thankful
that this mock election has Jus-
tified its existence by showing
me Just how careful I must be
when voUng that I '"^
unwltttogly for a party which is
liberal on the surface b-it whose
.ellefs are bas^aily to.aii.^lan.
IV Pol. Sci.
Editor, The Varsity
With regard to the forthcom-
ing elections to the Mock. Par-
liament, we feel that the campus
political parties have overlook-
ed one important segment of the
student body in their bid for
support. There are many of us
at the University who have
neither any party affiliation nor
are particularly attracted by any
of the platforms presented.
Nevertheless such students merit
a decent representation in the
Parliament.
Therefore, we the undersigned,
politically independent and de-
termined to see jusice done, be-
lieve wholeheartedly that the
great mass of students who are
of a similar independent mind
deserve spoltesmen in the House,
or this reason and in the cause
of free democratic expression we
humbly submit ourselves as
INDEPENDENT CANDID.ATES.
Here is a challenge! If you
have a mind of your own and
are dissatisfied with the political
fare presently being offered on
the campus vote INDEPENDENT.
The INDEPENDENTS are a/reed
in only one principle, that the
non-partisan and inteile:iually
honest individual should have a
voice.
Voting INDEPENDENT la
simple. Leave the spaces oppo-
site the party names blank and
write In INDEPENDENT at the
bottom of the ballot.
Think, vote, vote INDEPEN-
DENT.

The Following is the Final Article in a Series on the
University Of Toronto Press Boolt Store and Deals with
the Non-Texual Functions of the Book Store,
Ry DENISE AIOHABDS
Symbolic Revolution
They are using The Varsity in the "Remedial English"
classes in University College! At first that was a shock,
then we felt a little humble, and now we are concerned.
Some other things have happened recently which con-
tributed to this concern. Down in Massa(fhusett3 yesterday
«ome a.ss got up in the state legislature and suggested that
they start teaching "American" in the schools. He felt it
would be more patriotic than "English". (Put that in your
Miitoii ;ind smoke it.)
Mr. Robert Gill, being quoted by Miss Pearl Fames, said
Bomething about "spoken drama" (oh unhappy contradic-
tory phrase), in these columns recently.
And have you read a book by Prof. M. McLuhan (from
St. Mike's) called The Mechanical Bride, in which he claims
that the printed word i.s losing its grip on society?
1 It gives, as the man says, one to think.
These things may seem unrelated to the casual reader,
but they strike us as very much threads of the same fabric.
It all adds up to what you might call the symbolic revolution.
It's a revolution that's been going on for a long time.
It ha.s to do with thing.^ Hke the radio, and high speed
presse.'^, and the camera, and the films, and that brawling
niere is no doubt that the University of To-
ronto Book Store is trying to be more than just a
text store. The question is whether or not It is
succeeding iji catering to the needs ot a supposedly
intellectual community. For. unless students and
(H-ofessors alike feel that they can rely on the
Book Store to provide the boolcs and periodicals
they consider necessary to their mental stimula-
tion, this facet of the enterprise might just as
well be discontinued.
It mig-lit be saTd here, that some ol the com-
plaints directed against the Book Store on thia
score have been hypercritical; others, uninformed.
Some students seem to expect the Book Store to
supply them instantly with any obscure title, re-
gardless ot how restricted the geneial demand for
it may be, or of whether or not they have indicated
their interest in, for example, the theory of linear
operations. Other students criticize the Book Store
more or less by hearsay, or after a cursory exam-
ination of the shelves, and blast the officials for
failing to provide a publication such as The New
York Times Weekend Edition which is r^ularly
In stock.
Miss MacMurray, the manager of the Book
Store, selects the non-bexual supplies personally.
Perhaps her job could be made easier i£i a student
committee were formed to make suggestions. Miss
MacMurray said that she felt that she was supply-
ing the students with the books they want. In
view of the complaints that have been expressed,
this seems to indicate that people on the campus
ai-e not even attempting to give constructive cri-
ticism to the proj>er parties.
There are, of course, financial problems involv-
ed in satisfying everyone. To meet the demands
for as complete as jjossible selections of E^'eryman,
Home University Library. Signet. Mentor,- and
Pelican publications, to name a few, would involve
stocking a large number of books with no guaran-
tee that the majority of them would ever be sold.
But a little judicious publicity directed at staff,
grsiduates, and undeigraduates. possibly combined
wlWi a mail order department, should be able to
make potential customers aware of the fact that it
is worth their while to patronize the Book Store.
And .surely, with the group of people most likely to
buy good boolcs only waiting to be convinced that
the Book Store ia the best place to get them, the
Book Store need only pi-ove Itielf. s.t\<\
in clover.
the
As far aa periodicals are concerned
taon is much the same. Students
are demandihg quarterlies from other un-
and maga;j-nes like The Reporter and th"
political magazine. They criticize the
"popular" magazines such as the SatuMa^'^i
ing Post. -■■
The requests for more meaty matt*,
undoubtedly be met; but distributors wui ^ ''^^
tlnue long to supply magazines that doQ t
will be the responsibility of the Book Staj^
the students know what publications are in
and the responsibility of the students to b
their criticisms by buying these niagaaing^^
they are in stock.
But in many cases, the criticism ot
the popular magazines seems to be sheer I
lectual snobbery. "Pogo" is permissible; the s
day Evening Post is not. Some students sZ,
want to ignore the fact that many ol theiT
leagues enjoy frivolous literature by pr^y
them from buying it on university grounds t
excuse is that such material caji be bought
where.
, But why should the Book Store put itaeit
to provide comparatively dlfficult-to-seli aia
and at the same time be asked to do away
a sure source of income because it oUenii
highly developed aesthetic sense of a few?
seems a most unreasonable demand.
Iflie complaints agiainst the vending
the seasonal supplies, and such things as pen
and paints seem t.o be. similarly selfish. Their '
poe is to provide a little extra income aoj
attract students to the Book Store so that
may be tempted to ouy a ixjok while sa* ■
their bodily needs, if the space were ingently
ed for book displays, they could easily be al^t
But, until such time, they could be tolerated u
effort by the Book Store to hoist itself up \^
own boot straps.
In conclusion then, let it be said thai if
Book Store is to provide a service to the atu
and be more than a mere financial enterpiist,
must receive the support, financial and othe-
that such a luxury requires.

Don't be surprised If you sud-
denly hear bursts of French, and
rollicking Gallic songs today. For
this is the Carabin weekend, when
forty students from the University
of Montreal visit our home campus.
The Montrealers rolled into Un-
ion Station last night on the crest
of a "BOUM-A-LACKA" cheer, to
, be rushed up to a reception in
Trinity College. For the next three
days they will be entertained with
parties, banquets, and square danc-
es at Caledon Lodge. They will also
talie part in a discussion today on
education. *
Over the weekend forty Toronto
students will play host to the same
number of French-Canadians. Tlie
guests will live at the home or resi-
dence of his host. The two will
spend most of their time together,
in order to establish a personal re-
lationship.
The Toronto students have been
picked from 150 applications turn-
ed In to the Students' Council,
which subsidizes the weekend. The
group includes people from most of
the faculties on the campus.
Most of the activities will be re-
stricted to this group, because of
space and financial lunitations.
However, the discussion this after-
noon, and a tea Sunday are open
to everyone^ the Carabin commit-
tee announced.
The most singular feature of
Lhese weekends is the unrestrained
bursts of French song which are
apt to appear at any time. To meet

more importance has been placed

Subject of the discussion toda?
will be "A comparison betweea
the aims and methods of tha

ieff of Hart House will lead off for

Campus
Registrar Hicks*
"Students are being more and more ajfected
by a rapidly-growing American influence," is the
opinion of Professor R. K, Hicks, registrar of
Trinity College.
"Twenty years ago the mere idea of a pep rally
would have been ridiculous. However, this type of
activity is harmless." he feels, "and does give
Mmeone with leadership qualities a chance to exer-
cise them."
A tall, humorous man with a great moustache.
Dean Hicks was born in London, England. He
was the latest offspring of generations of Lon-
doners. The family goes way back. We have been
respectable for quite a few generations. Beyond
lhat we don't know."
He was brought up in the Victoria -Kipling gen-
eration. "The Victorian era was more comfortable
lOr the bourgeoisie and pretty grim for labour.
There was none of the terrible unrest and anxiety
■f today."
He remembers seeing Queen Victoria. "I would
have been at her funeia:, hut was laid up with
% succer knee." He remembers, too, seeing the first
big Dock Strike, with gangs of unemployed men
going along with a slow, swinging march, chant-
ing, "We've got no work to do."
Prof. Hicks graduated from Cambridge in
mathematics and taught in Enghsh schools for
lix years. Then, in 1907, he came to Canada.
"Canada looked like a better opportunity for
the schoolmaster profession." He taught at Upper
Canada College for four years. "It was rougih going
for the first few months. A new master, especially
an Englishman, was fair gajne. Soon, however, I
learned how to deal with Canadian youth, and
my school experience has been a great help in
nniversity teaching."
One of his favourite squelches was given to a
fery sloppy, yawning young lady. "You have very
nice tonsils." he complimented her, "but if you
ean't conceal them, you'd better go away," She did-
- Dean Hicks has been at the University of To-
ronto for a long time. He came to Trinity in 1927,
as head of the French Department, after ten years
at Queen's. He became registrar and then Dean of
Arts. His main interest outside Trinity has been
In the theatre. Now a syndic of Hart House
ITieatre, he has been an actor in many produc-
tions. He played in the old Hart House theatre
group, before it adopted its present policy and
director. His longest part was in "The Doctor's
B7 PEABIi FARNES
Dilemma" 25 years ago. «
"I never got another lead," he ruefully remem-
bers. "I liked bit parts, particularly Shakespearian
rustics," In a production of "Anthony and Cleo-
patra" he deUvered the poisonous asp as the
delightful, mildly philosophical clown. And at the
same time, he played the Soothsayer earlier in the
play. His last appearance was as the messenger
in. Ernest Dale's "Antigone".
The former actor has been honorary president of
the Trinity Dramatic Society almost since he came.
"They wisely leave my warnings unheeded. I like
them to take risks. But they do follow my advice
sometimes."
Fifteen years at Trinity have ^ven H^istrar
Hicks expraience of all sorts of situations and stu-
dents. He applauds the period of the veterans.
"They were a very steadyir^ influence, and
raided the social and academic level and results.
Uore students get American fellowships now.
Further, they tended to repress certain juvenilia,"
were his comments. Depression years brought
greater numbers to the xmiversity because there
were no Jobs.
As Investigator for the Canadian Committee
on Modern Languages in 1926, Prof. Hicks made
some interesting discoveries. "The English school
system goes much higher at the top than ours.
There seems to be more scope in England for the
really good brain. Here, the student often enters
university on memory-work. Then he has to think
— and sometimes sink."
As registrar, he meets all sorts of students with
troubles, and spends much of his time in reducing
400-word j>etitions to 50 words.
- "I hear all sorts of problems and excuses,
ranging all the way from influenza to failure in
finding rooms as reasons for not writing examin-
ations. One young man," he remembers, "told me
his favourite aunt had died, and even had a photo
of himself at the grave to prove it!"
With Professor H. E. Ford of Victoria College,
he has published several school texts in French,
and has contributed occasional articles to maga-
zines. He is now coDectLng data on the history of
Trinity College, and is quite proud of the fact that,
in ten years. Trinity walked off with seven Rhodes
scholarships.
"I like to observe life going on." said Mr. Hicks.
"The Trinity Buttery in particular amuses me
I shant like to be retired."

At the bottom of page three, in
yesterday's edition of Toronto's
other morning newspaper, there
appeared an advertisement show-
ing a picture of Hart House and at
the side a description of the U of
T's rank among the educational
institutions in the British Com-
monwealth. The ad was placed by
CKeefe's Brewing Company.
The headline of the advertise-
ment read. "It's the extra that
counts ..."
Earlier this year the University
ollege Literary and Athletic Soci-
ety proposed a resolution to change
the name of the Brading Debating
Trophy on the grounds that it
commercialized the University.
"The foot is in the door. My sus-
picions about the disinterested na-
ture of the relations of the brew-
eries towards the University have
been confirmed," said the Univer-
sity College Literary Director, Al
Strauss <IV UC), "We are now
being made analogous to that 'ex-
tra something' in the product of
these philanthropic manufactur-
ers.'*
Commenting cm a recent editor-
ial in The Varsity, Strauss said,
"as the editor of "The Varsity feels
that money is money, I hope they
paid real dough for this priWlege."

DEUXIiME ETAGE
Metis Oui!
There has been a lot of talk
around here lately about us Eng-
lish-speaking Canadians not being
lie to get along as well as our
'rench -speaking coanpatriots be-
cause they can speak English and
we can't speak French. This thing
been a problem to me only in-
lidentally and now and then.
Having lived all my life, practi-
illy, in Toronto where it is possi-
tle to get along nicely on English
lone. I have never had to go ri^ht
lown to the pluperfect subjunctive,
ml I doubt that X could even if I
lad to.
But the point is this. In good old
oronto pluperfect subjunctives are
lew and far between, and -it is more
'~^n easy to get aloiis without
lem at all. Hiis is a situation of
'hich it is possible to take advan-
ce, and which, if handled careful-
can be used to raise one's stock
the eyes of the vulgar, as Tim

There are, of course, lots of ways
1 go about it, but I am not pre-
«red to go into them all lust now.
V way is this and although it ap-
eai-s simple, it's deceptively so. One
'icks a French phrase like "c'est la

For example a rough English
translation is "second floor", but
because of a peculiar linguistic im-

the third floor when they say it.
No decent explanation for this

offered, although it is rumoured
the French peasants used it to con-
fuse the aristocrats during the
Revolution. However, I picked It up
because its peculiar phonetic rela-

practically any situation.

The Government In the Mock
Parliament will be Progressive
Conservative. The MacDonald- Car-
tier Club won 3G seats in the legis-
lature of the Mock Parliament in
yesterday's election. The Liberals
and the CCF fought a close race
for the official opposition, the Lib-
erals winning with 23 seats to the
COP 22. The Labor Progressive
party got 9.
About 18 per cent of the student
body voted in the election. The
popular vote ran: Progressive Con-
servative, 809; Liberal, 513; CCF,
503; and LPP, 203. 48 ballots were
spoiled, for a total of 2,077 votes
cast.
The Mock Parliament Committee
announced last night that all bal-
lots marked for parties other than
those printed on the ballot would
be considered spoiled. Some ol the
unusual parties indicated on the
ballot included, "Independent",
"Bloc Populaire", and "DUiecrat."
AO ballots marked unmistakably
for a particular party were ac-
ceptable the committee decided.
This means that ballots marked
with an X, a plus sign, the name of
the party, OK, hammer and sickle,
or a check mark were accepted.
There were no closed booths at
the eight polling stations. Students
marked their ballots on a wall or
on their notebotAs. Most of the
ballot boxes were not padlocked.

Completely different. In camera work and direction is the accompany-
ing short OPERA SCHOOL. This is a magnum opus of the National
Film Board, its forty minutes being twice as long as its usual commercial
product. The Royal Conservatory was the setting, and its teachers and
students make up the capable and natural cast.
Camera work Is the key here, tying in with a satisfactory Louis
Appelbaum musical score. The fictional trials and tribulations of Marie
Burton (Marguerite Gignac) from budding hopeful having a Conserva-
tory audition until she makes good in Mozart's Figaro at the Royal Ales
make up the story. Gignac, of course, was the perfect one to pick for
the main role — her expressiveness and talent of mime fits in as well
■with the intimate camera eye as it does in the Hart House Great Hall or
the barn-stage of thefeoyal Alexandra. This short is a superb advertise-
ment for 'Hie Natiohil Film Board, and this seems to be a direction In
which the NFB should take further st«ps.
The only slight quibble is with the ending of the story, which l^t
me rather'flat. Since it all began with the nervous Gignac at the outset.
It would have been more complete, if Gignac was spotlighted (at least In

The Univeisity of Montreal is a prominent,
yellow brick structure at the very, top o£ Mount
Royal, and tommantls a view of a good portion
of the city.
Bui it is all one building and there is no campus
except for the halls and corridors within it. All
the laculties are contained in it also except for
engineerins (Ecole Polytechnique) as well as ait
and architecture <Ecole des Beaux Arts), which are
both downtown.
Opened shortly before the Second World War,
the University of Montreal now is the largest of
French-speaking student institutions in the coun-
try — about 4000 to be exact.
Like its counterparts in France and other coun-
tries of Europe, it still adheres to the traditional
system of education. In effect it is a graduate
college, where all that students can receive is a
master's or doctor's degree in some specific pro-
fession or subject in the humanities.
Students who enter have behind them what is
called a baccalaureat degree. It is comparable to a
high school and ^junior college course combmed.
However, in Quebec they are called classical colleges
and provide a solid grounding in the classics,
sciences, mathematics and philosophy. This is, in.
effect, a general background course prior to special-
ization in university.
For this reason, students entering a Fiench-
Canadian university are usually two or three

particular stress on three points;
the "totality of vision" a university
should provide; the vital role played
by research, and the importance' of
tradition in an institution of higher
learning.
The literal derivation of "univer-
ity" is "turned into one" Dr. Van
Wyok explained. This desire for
unity, which leads to intellectual
and spiritual harmony, he said, was
the core of Greek monism, Stoicism,
the Rcsnan theory of the rights of
peoples, and the United Nations.
A university should be a light-
house and a powerhouse rather than
an ivory tower, he said. It should.

tellectual life for the people, and a
vital force throughout their lives,
A university may truly be called a
university only when it integrates
thinking and doing, theory and
practice. Dr. Van Wycfc continued.
If the professional schools were
separated from the universities, he
pointed out, the gap ali-eady exist-
ing between the academic and the
"practical" would be further widen-
ed. The demands of life are the
business of the savage &s well as of
the professional man, he said: the
university provides a wider horizon.'
It investigates knowledge ot life at
its highest levels and places it be-
fore the community.
Stressing the totality of vision a
university should provide, he said
that this provides- some protection
from a blind reliance on the ab
stractions of science. Dr. Van Wyck
gave as an example the ramifica-
tions raised by the proposal of
sending wheat to India. This would
raise problems in the field of poll
ticsr ethics, religion, economics and
anthropology, he added.

The principal orchestral work was the Pastoral Symphony of

joincidental.) Here the orchestra deserves the highest honours for
s demonstration of range in pitch and volume. Never has an orchestral
Iriple pianissimo been used to effectively as here in this English setting

' a wordless shepherd song. This symphony is primed with a set of

Hiilel Jieciiai
Last Wednesday night, at -Wymllwood, EUe Spivak, violinist, and
leo Barkin, pianist, gave a joint concert sponsored by Hiilel Music Club.
There was nothing much one could either harshly condemn or lavishly
paise in Mr. Spivak's violin playing; it was a consistently adequate
fcrformance, never rising to any great heights nor, on the otlier hand,
fer sinking to any depths. His interpretations were sound, but never
Itraordinar^' or inspiring. His tone was sufficiently warm, but never
Tbrant or fiery. Throughout, Mr. Spivak was competent; and competence,
per all, possesses some degree of merit.
Perhaps what was chiefly wrong was, first, Mr. Spivak's failure to
take use of effective slides and secondly, and more important, his
^erai lack of intensity. For example, in the Beethoven C Minor Violin
Pnata. i felt that Mr. Spivak sensed its nuances and great spiritual
jalitles; but they were given small and dry expression, especially in the
plodic Andante Cantabile and the emotional Finale. Its greatness was
pimi-vhed in the Procrustean bed of understatement.
Spivak's most successful performance was that of the Handel
I Major Sonata. The Allegro movements were played with the correct
Fightly spirit. However, the first movement, Largo, was carried at too
^k a tempo and its broad, expansive melodic line tended to be stifled
rthe speed. The rest of the program consisted of slighter works, the
m one of interest being Jacques Ibert's Dans La Maison Triste which
Fgiven Its Canadian premiere by Mr. Spivak last Wednesday. It was
|ood music, heavily, heavily impressionistic and one wondered, knowing
Y^^. if it was not a piece of pungent parody of the impressionist style,

Bjopin's c Minor Nocturne and Albaniz' Sevilla revealed the lucidity, the
|pe«3e and polish for which he is noted. . „ ^ ^ ».

Engineers
Enlightened
On Ethics
The first of a series of meetings
sponsored by the Engineering chap-
ter of the Varsity Ciiiistian Fellow-
ship began yesterday. Dr D. Wade
from Knox College was the guest
speaker and discussed the growing
problem of morality in industry
which engineers are faced with.
Dr. Wade began his talk by laying
the framework of moral standards
as based on Jesus Christ. He stated
that Christianity believes in God,
that He is vitally and dynamically
involved in the set up and in the
link between people and their en^
vironment. He maintained that a
final illuminatioin of* problems
not granted to the Christian unless
he moves into the problem v/ith
knowledge of Jesus Christ. There is
a partial blindness and inabllllty to
approach the situation unless
have faith, he said.
After this introduction. Dr. Wade
proceeded to tie in the relev^mcy
of the Christian belief and its ap-
plication in industry. He refused to
entertain the problems of morality
in Industry unless they were based
on Jesus Christ.
Dr. Wade said that each problem
that arises is unique and must be
approached at the time it arises, n^

B'Ball Blues Face Albion
At Athletic Nite Tomorro\^
Skule Become
Mural Champs
In Volleyball
The volleyball season ended yes-
terday with SPS ni becoming in-
terfaculty champions as they won
the final from Meds m, three
games to one. It was a best of five
set for the championship.
The doctors manageJ a win in
the first game, 15-13. The Skule-
men roared back to take the next
by a lopsided 15-3 count. The last
games were closer but enough to
win for SPS. The scores were 15-8
and 15-7.
Skule garnered most of their
points on a type of shot they seem-
ed to have patented for that game
at least. The man playing close to
the net got point after point by
whacking the ball almost straight
down. The Engineers were a bit
more elert and got some more steam
behind their shots and after the
first loss, had things well in hand.
The Basketball Blues open their home season tomo^^
night, when they meet Albion College in the second haU*'
the basketball doubleheader at Hart House, The basbtl °*
games are to be the feature attraction of the first of M
year's series of Athletic Nights, Saturday night enten
ment programs put on by the Athletic Association and ^'
sisting of basketball games, boxing, wrestling, aquaticg

Pictured above Is Jack Ross, who will be blmring goaUng duties with
Doug Orr on the hockey Blues' weekend trip to McGiU and Laval.
Jack played Junior B in Stratford before entering Varsity, and last
season he guarded the nets for the champion Baby Blues.
Blues Will Play
At McGill, Laval
Tonight the Hookey Blues open
Iheli- Intercollegiate schedule
igainst McGill Redmen at the
Montreal Forum. The fact that the
Blues were soundly beaten last week
iO-2 in an exhibition game, coupled
with the fact tliat McGill won their
opener against LavRl last weekend
8-2, all means that the locals will
have their hands full at tonight's
encounter.
In spite of the fact that Coach
Robillard has mostly a greefi group
to work with, nevertheless the Red-
men appear to have plenty of spirit
and the ability to win hockey games.
They have lost two of last year's
stars. Gord Knutson and Bob
Marchessault due to academic pres-
sures. However, defensively they
should be the best in the league
■with veteran Bob MacLellan hi goal
and Don Robertson heading tip a
etrong rearguard. Robertson made
lirst string all star defence last sea-
son.
The most important news -Iiom
the Blues camp is that their stal-
wart defenceman Joe Kane did not
make the trip due to shoulder and
knee injuries. Fifteen Blues left last
night on the eleven o'clock train
includhig two goalies, Doug Orr and
Jack Ross. Which netminder will
play tonight was not known at
press time. Coach Bill Wade will
likely not make the decision until a
few hours before the game.
With the loss of Kane, the Blues
will only have one of last year's
regulars, Gerry Fitzhenry. back at
the blueline. However ex-Marlboro
star Jack MacKenzie will line up on
defence along with Paul Prender-
gast and Al Fasan.
The Blues' No. I forward line will
consist of Don Rope at centre flank'
ed by Jack Weldrake and Johnny
Adams. Red Stevens will take Rich
Howson's former spot between high
scoring wingers Ernie Frey and
PhU Arrowsmith. Three other vet-
erans, Norm Fox, Al Conboy and
Pete Vernon will compose the third
forward trio. Wally Westlake, Jerry
Henderson and Gord Bennett did
not make this trip.
Tomorrow night Varsity will take
on Laval at Quebec's new 14,000 seat
arena. Again they will have their
hands full., The Blues only beat the
Flying Frenchmen 4-3 last year in
the Quebec encounter.
Jr. Blues Lose
n Water Polo
To Central Y
Th€ TJnlTersity of T6roDto Jun-
ior water polo team were handed
their first defeat of Mie seasoa
Wednesday .night, as the Central
Y A team downed the Blues 12-9.
The Varsity squad now has a rec-
ord of two wins and one loss while
the Y team has three victories.
The final tilt of the season will be
held in the Hart House pool next
Thursday, apd the Blues must
win to stay In contention for the
league title.
In Wednesday's contest, the
Blues found themselves up against
a new style of play, as their op-
ponents played a rugged type of
game. Before they could get used
to this the Varsity squad found
that they were on the wrong end of
7-1 score. The Blues fought
back for the rest of the game but
were unable to overcome the big
lead. They pulled up to within
three tallies at the half, the score
being 8-5, but couldn't gain any
more in the second h^M.
'Al Roger was top sharpshooter
for the Blues as he potted five tal-
lies. Teammate Bemie Langner
In the first part of the basketball
twin bill, the Intermediates play
Ryerson Tech, beginning at 7100
p.m. The Techmen tried to get into
the Intermediate Intercollegiate
loop this year, but were turned
down.
The Blues beat Albion last year
56-51 in last year's home opener.
Albion's star was Charlie Allen, who
scored 14 points. Allen is fairly tall,
6'4", but on the whole the US team
did not compare with the Blues in
height. The Senior game is schedul-
ed to start at 8:45.
Bo<th the Blues and the Inter-
mediates lost games to Niagara U.
Wednesday night. The Blues lost
to the starry Niagara team 72-47.
None of the Blues had a particularly
good day. no one scoring over ten
points. Ed Maynerick netted 10, and
Bud Natanson was kept pretty well
in check, getting only 8 points. Top
man for Niagara -wag Don Cramer,
with 14 points.

Of Athletic Night
One of the features of tomor-

A last-minute goal by the vet-
eran of the lacrosse wars. Dutch
Young was enouffh to give UC
an 11-10 win over Meds in the
second overtime period of yester-
day's opener of the boxla finals.
The Redmen will go into the sec-
ond game of the best of three
series sporting a one-game lead-
It was a thriller with the verdict
in doubt all the way. Young led
his UC team to victory, his pay-
off marker being the last of four.
Gear sparked the doctors with a
fine five-goal display.
UC took the lead on several oc-
casions but the Meds team came
from behind every time except
after Young's clincher when there
wasn't enough time. It would be
difficult to find two teams more
evenly matched. _
UC started with a flourish get-
ting three goals in the first couple
of minutes. Eagleson snapped in
a shot at close range. Kopsky fired
a blooper from centre that escaped
Perkin and Watson grabbed
pass and went in alone for the
third. Gear of Meds took an off-
side penalty, when he returned the
Meds team came to life. McMelon
sandwiched one between a pair by
Gear, one on a breakaway and the
other on a nifty close-in effort. The
score was tied. Although TTC was
strong early in the period, in the
latter half there were Medsmen
all over the court. As the stanza
ended, the referee was warning
the boys about their over-exub-
erance.
The pace was the same 'in the
second frame. Both 'teams got
away for some great rushes but
Perkin and Smela in the goals
were very stady. In the middle of
the period UC broke out with four
unanswered goals. Eagleson and
Watson counted and Young got a
pair, both the result of deadly
shooting. Bad luck, bad shooting
and bad passing in the goal area
were all that were keeping Meds
oil the scoresheet. Gear finally did
register, leaving the halftime
score at 7-4.
After the five-minute breather,
the teams came out fighting. Sims
and Watson went off in the first
minute when Sims returned Wat-
son's cross check with interest.
While they were off, Gear went
from end to end to pull one clos-
er. Sims returned only to be ban-
ished again for holding. Vince
tied the score for Meds with a
brace of tallies that brought the
crowd to its feet. For both, he
went through the whole UC team,
closely checked all the way. In
the dying moments of the per-
iod. Young gave UC a short-lived
lead that was erased when Gear
got one on a pretty rush.
I They were a little cosy in the

Several weelcs ago that the Ath-

gate the possibility of insuring

mentioned that a player on a
Ream from the City League had
post some money when he left his
Booker open while playing in Hart

Secretary J. P. Loosemore said
that tiie YMHA team had its own

pnts checked to see that the door
bf the room was locked when the

On the question of insurance,
"joosemore said that all they could
bo would be to take out a general
boUcy which most likely would
pave to include a deductible
fclause which would rule out any
fniall losses. •
\Vhenever anything is lost,
toosemore said that the first
ning that is checked is whether

ttiat in practically every case

Crimson Attacks Anti-Red Rule
Cambridge, Mass. (Exchange) —
Five Harvard University profes-
sors here have attacked the state
anti-subversive bill which Mas-
sachusetts Governor Dever sign-
ed recently.
The act includes sections which
outlaw the Communist party and
penalizes any organization which
rents an auditorium to a subver-
sive organization,
Samuel H. Beer, Associate Pro-
fessor of Government at Harvard,
told the Harvard Crimson, "I think
it is very possibly unconstitutional
and r think in general that it is a
great pity. I'm disgusted and in-
dignant that the Governor should
have signed it."
Zecbariah Chafee Jr., a Harvard
professor said that "all sedition bills
are dangerous. No one can tell how
far they will be carried. Eventual-
ly, they will be used against in-
nocent people, not the ones meant
by the original drafters of such
bills."
Kirtley Mather, geology profes-
sor, said that "It is a very sad
thing for the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts when the legislature
passes a measure which was not
available for the individual legis-
lators to examine carefully."

Named Ta ISS
A Toronto man. Professor John
Coleman, of the Mathematics De-
partment, has been appointed
chairman of the Administrative
Committee of the Canadian ISS.
International StudMit Service an-
nounced recently.
Prof. Coleman, a 1939 graduate
of University CoUege, has been as-
sociated with ISS since its organ-
ization in 1940. Frwn then until
1943, while he was secretary of the
Students' Christian Movement, he
was acting treasurer of the Nation-
al Committee of the ISS,
For the next two years, he help-
ed with the ISS campaigns at
Queen's University, where he was
teaching mathematics. In 1945, he
went to Geneva as a member of
Assembly of World Student Re-
lief, which is responsible for relief
funds. He was back in Toronto in
1949 as a professor in Applied
Mathematics and stiU working for
ISS.
For the past year Coleman has
been a member of the National
Committee of ISS and was named
chairman of the Administrative
Committee on November 2 of yiis
year. This committee carries out
the policy laid down by the Cana-
dian ISS conference which is at-
tended by representatives of all
Canadian Universities and this
year hel'd at Hamilton Jn October.
Prof. Coleman says be has work-
ed in ISS. and similar organizations
since his student days for threa
reasons. One is the humanitariaa
appeal to help those in distress,
the second a desire for Canadian
students to get some understand-
ing of the world and its- views of
Canada and of the third, he says,
"Working to make ISS a strong
reality is the best that any person
can do to contribute to peace."
This year the Committee is con-
cerned with two things particular-
ly, he said. The first is the problem
of displaced persons who are work-
ing in Canada and who want to go
to University. The, second is the
next ISS seminar. There have been
four seminars in the past, three in
Europe and the last in Canada.
ISS hopes to have the next one in
South East Asia. However, tho
proMem here is how to finance lb.

A Subtle Brew
Subtlety has always been a trade mark
of Canadian brewers' advertising. Not be-
cause they have any natural inclination
for this sort of approach, but because pro-
vincial laws p«rivent them from being any-
thing else. But this time we feel that
O'Keefe's have made something of an all-
time record in subtlety. In fact, they are
80 subtle that they are downright tant?'"'^
ing.
Their finger plunged in Hart House's
belly they say "It's the extra that counts."
Extra what? Do they mean to say that
University of Toronto students need a shot
in the arm and Hart House patrons a beo^
in the hand.
O'Keefe's speak of the University of To-
ronto as ranking "among the foremost
educational institutions in the British
Commonwealth." And yet they end on the
disquietening note, "It's an extra that
counts for a lot." Almost a warning, it
would seem, almost a challenge to our
ability to maintain the traditions with
which we have been so liberally blessed.
And, as everyone knows, Tradition Counts
—particularly in Canada Unlimited.
But tradition is a hard thing to main-
tain and keeping up to the past -is a bit
of a race, even for University of Toronto
students. Somehow, we are expected to
move forward while looking backward. It's
a problem, advancing through a maze of
tradition; but we must solve it.
road to the future. 2y putting a beer sign
on Hart House, they may no.t only help
themselves make a 100-year-oid tradition
pay, but contribute to our' future as well.
There is supposed to be room to grow
in Canada Unlimited, but the University
of Toronto is continually faced with the
problem of expansion. We need money to
grow physically and room to grow men-
tally.
Two y^ears ago, Varsity Sports Editor
Bob Dnieper evolved an economic theory
whereby the university would be able to
increase its athletic facilities. As its basic
ideas would seem to be valid today we
would like to quote certain passages from
it. Speaking of those using Hart House
facilities he estimated that:
•T»)inefy per cent admit they drink, and
nine more per cent lie about it. The
remainder have stomach ulcers. At a
conservative estimate, if beer were sold at
Hart House at least 10,000 glasses or bot-
tles would be sold every day. From our
hotel-Owner friends we find that the clear
profit after overhead and depreciation on
each dollar taken in from the sale of the
brew is fifty cents.
With the concessions as to rent and
taxes, the profit would be about 60 per
cent with~ the result that each and every
day $500 would be realized and if the
summer months (with the summer
sessions, etc.) are included, this take could
be increased to $150,000 smackers per
annum."
However, 0'Keefe*s may have inadvert-
ently stumbled on a solution, on a new
Maybe this is just a whisky dream;
maybe an alcoholic daze surrounds us just
'like a scotch mist envelops the campus.
Maybe we are just caught up in the subtle
symbolism of an alcoholic advertisement.

At the rise of the curtain the

strikes by the luxury of the de-

itself in front of which is seat-

plays a piece of Debussy. All

The mister: enter.

OUR READERS WRITE
India Needs Tiim
Editor, The Varsity
The theory expoun^^ed about
India 's current "crisis ' ' ( prob-
lems) by Mr. Dicken Durand is
one-sided and mostly reveals his
personal beliefs and prejudice.
Indeed, his explanation of what
he calls crisis should not be
dignified by the word "theory",
I am afraid, he possesses more
misinformation than knowl-
edge about that country and
therefore he should check the
findings of four generations of
his family — array officers and
autocrats, who saw India and
interpreted her culture through
' their western eyes.
There was no nationalist
spirit in Bidia. so tells us Mr.
Durand. This ririculous; he
should not forget so soon the
sane nationalism of Mr, Gandhi,
Then he tells us that Canadians
achieved Dominion status be-
cause they were Europeans.
This argument of his is ir-
relevent when discussing In-
dian self-government. Indians
have ruled themselves for
thousands and thousands of

Welcome, Caiabins! We are happy to have you here
today at the beghining of your weekend in Toronto.
On other pages of this issue of The Varsity we have
trieiJ to demonstrate our sltill at bi-linguahsm. We hope you
are amused. Sonie of us have been brushing up on your
Boum-a-Iacka, and our French songs also, and that may
amuse you too.
Your Carabin weekend hosts have all kinds of things
social planned for you. and we hope your stay in our city is a
warm and cosy one. But we hope too that you will manage
to find time to see what our university is like in the daytime,
and that you will experience some of the good men and
.women who teach and direct us. With this too, we hope you
.will see something of the noon-hour rush at Hart House, and
perhaps the Friday afternoon crush at the libraries. These
too make up our university.
You may think on looking over the campus that this is a
big mill of a place. And you will be quite right. Excepl; that
in this mill, we are not a vague unconscious mass, we are
yarsity students who are glad that you are in our midst,
i We hope altogether that you will take back to Montreal
acme of the flavor of Toronto Varsitee. And if we can we
.will also try to show you that we know at least the first line
of "Auprfes de Ma Blonde."

Debate at Caledon
Puck Blues Split Games
Overwhelm McGill 5-1,
Lose Second To Laval 6-3
The Hockey Blues returned home yesterday sporting i
I recoi-d of one win and one loss after playing their first twt
intercollegiate games in the province of Quebec. Fridaj
night they decisively trimmed the McGill Redmen 5-1 but
were set down 6-3 on Saturday by Laval University in
Quebec City.
With all the intercollegiate teams
suffering at least one loss so far
in the young season, the race for
the championship shapes up as be-
ing one of the best in recent years.
On Friday night the Blues began
the new season against McGill in
the same fashion that they left
off last spring. The locals racked
up five goals in the first two periods
without an answer from the Mont-
realers. Only the stellar Work of
veteran goalie Bob MacLellan in
the McGill nets kept the Blues'
goal -getters from fastening their
averages.
Paced by reliable Phil Arrow-
smith who notched two goals, the
Blues skated the Redmen into the
ice. Don Rope, who scored one of
the Blues' goals and assisted oa
another, dazzled the 1,000 specta-
tors with his rushes while back at
the blueline veteran Jack Mac-
Kenzie led a strong Toronto rear-
guard.

Take Up Carabins' Time
Carabin weekends have always
leeti noted for their parties. This
rear's week-end wasn't very wild,
fhe big parties broke up early, to

Suzanne Morrow, I Vic, will
represent Canada in tlie Olympics
this year. Her list of Canadian
filiating titles includes : Junior
Pail-. Junior Ladies Cham-
pion, Senior Pairs. Pours and
Dancing, and three times Cana-
dian Senior Ladies Champ. Out^
fade Canada, she won the North
American Pairs in 1947, and was
mnner-up in the North American
ladies Championships, fourth in
the World 's in 1951 , an d plac e d
third in pairs at the last Olpmpics.
Which is quite a list for a pert,
blond, twenty-year old miss. Suz-
anne's day starts at six a.m. (ex-
cept on weeltends when she sleeps
until seven ) . She exercizes two
dogs . and then skates until her
first class . As soon as classes
are over, she is again out prac-
tising,
Sazanne graduated from Law-
rence Parlt Collegiate in 1950. and
stayed out of school for a year to
devote her time to skating.
"I wanted to have something to
think ahout besides skating, and
to widen my circle of friends." So
she entered Vic this year. "Here

a little, but it's very difficult."
She began skating when she was
nine years old. just for the sport.
But after winning her first compe-
tition in 1945. she began to skate
seriously. She specialized in
pairs until her Olympic partner
turned professional; then she con-
centrated on singles. "I prefer
doubles, but there are so very
few men in Canada who figure
skate."
She's seen some rather miique
sights in her trips around Europe.
"One day at a dance we were
greeted by the Marquis of Mil-
ford-Haven, swinging gaily from
the crystal chandeliers with a
girl hanging from his feet!" Her
most thrilling experience was the
Olympic year, especially the op-
ening, with pomp and royalty ev-
erywhere. She met King Mich-
ael of Koumania, Piincess Anne
of Bourbon, and ate at the next
table to ex-King Peter of Yugo-
slavia.
"We kept getting mixed up with
language." Suzanne speaks French
"well enough to make myself un-
derstood", and even interpreted
in French; for an Italian boy.
Missing trains, finding rats in
Wilbur and Gos ~ and the B of M
one hotel, sending her baggage
from Italy to Switzerland and
then, because of language diffi-
culties, getting on a train going
in the opposite dii'ection, are a
few of the scrapes the yount; skat-
er has been in. Last year she was
taken into Vienna under military
escort to skate in an exhibition.
She leaiued something about the
attitude of the Viennese toward
the occupation forces.
"They 're better towai'ds the
Russians, with the other oc-
cupying forces well-liked. They're
striving hard to keep up a cheerful
front." Switzerland, she said,
was thriving, but the others were
very poor.
"The Olrmpic Games are the, lift
they seem to need. There is a
great deal of enthusiasm towards
having the fesiivals in their coun-
tries. And the people of Europe
certainly know how to entertain
and make an outsider feel at
home," she said. Before the com-
petitions, she goes to bed eaiiy,
but there is always a party after-
wards. "The tours are full of
life and fun", she sums up.
I Althou^rH she has been In Europe
three times, she's actually had
very little time to see much of
the countrie.';. 'This time", she
vow's, "I'ii make time."- She
leaves Dec. 16 to skate exhibi-
tions in Germany. Switzerland
has invited her to do her pre-
Olympic training there, and af-
ter the world's competitions, she's
been invited to Copenhagen and
Vienna. She returns the end of
March and hopes to be able to
write her examinations.
She likes lier life at Victoria
College; and wears a Vic ring
wliich hei" father had ma^e for her
mother when they went to college.
She's been a cheerleader for Vic,
and was in the Bob Revue. Her
friends are usually drawn from
high school and university cir-
cles., that is, those outside skating
circles. "I don't consider myself
any different— I've had the op-
portunity to do something, and am
extremely grateful for it." But
she has fun in whatever she does.
She participates in all kinds of
sports; her pet hobby is breeding
cats and dogs. She has three

Freedom's Only Sources
Religion, University-Frye
English is now (in the 20th century) what Latin was in the 16th — the language
which a small educated class uses to communicate thoughts, according to Professor Norths
rop Frye in his speech to the Carabins and their hosts at the Newman Club on Saturday.
Speaking on the "Ideals of a University Education", Prof. Frye said that apart
from religion and the university there is no freedom. Ordinary life is divided into work and
distraction, he said, and it is to religion and the University that one must look for freedom*
By the university he meant "the University in a broader sense than the institution by that
name which is often devoted to the social processes." He defined the open forum of frea
discussion as constituting the University in the larger sense.
Prof. Frye wondered whether
the challenge to the pioneer has
not shifted from the physical to
the cultural realm within th^ last
25 years. He commented on the
hardiness needed by the mental
and cultural pioneer who now has
greater task than his grand-
father, who may have walked five
miles to school. The modern pio-
neer has to withstand lies and
bombardment in his pursuit of
Beauty and Truth. The person who
can read comic books and still have
an interest In painting is in Prof.
Frye's opinion a mormm-ent ot
athletic endurance and mental
hardiness.
The more insidious insults are
represented in advertising he
said. "Advertising in all its forms
is an ironic art which says what
it does not mean." He thought
that the individual has to build up
a kind of athletic ability -M re-
sist advertising.
Students today are more tightly
in.<iulated, he thought, and are no
longer as articulate nor as willing
to talk to other people. Prof. Frye
said that students are subjected to
a tremendous strain from being
surrounded by emotional irony
and "things which are not what
they mean". He felt that it was no
wonder that so many collapse to
reading Time, the Reader's Digest
and "other forms of Adult
thought".
In his opinion a student has done
something pretty Impressive if he
can still believe in democracy after

It impossible to co-operate with
t.
A letter received recently from
US has said the unity meeting
lan defiiiitely not be held this
nontii, Syd Wax, Chairman of the
Meinational Activities Commis-
lion of the National Federation of
lanaclian University students,
Wcusi said late last night.
Tlic Canadian student body,
»liich requested the meeting, had
loped it could be held before the
Edinburgh conference at the end
)£ this month, when the western
itudent unions will meet to make
llani for co-operation. Tliis will
>e tile second such meeting; the
irst was in Stocltholm last Decem-
ber.
Ite letter from Prague said the
PS was "happy" that NFCUS
Pas urging that such a unity meet-
ie be held, since they were "con-
'hiced that it will be a great step
orwprd in the cause of Interna-
lona; student co-operation."
However, they said, the meeting
*»1<1 not be held in the third
*eei: of December, as proposed,
Kcause of "technical difficulties."
also said tttW hoped,
'y postponing the meeting, to ob-
■"n the widest possible participa-
te in it.
Wax expressed great surprise at
*"ond reason, since NPCDS

'seinning of the school year. "It

reading what the newspapers caH
it. He said the person who can
speak English represents a tri-
umph for education and a resis-
tance to many things, inchidinff
educational processes. Prof. Frye
felt that the people who are in-
terested in such things as the pur-
suit of Beauty and Truth ara
bound to feel isolated, like "a
lighthousekeeper who has lost hij
lighthouse".
Prof. Frye said Uiat it is here
that the University becomes im-
portant. It is very difficult, he felC»
to make the University prostitute
itself to promote the cause of dis-
cord.
On the subject of students, he
commented that it is an errcH' to
imagine that any "goon" is a stu-
dent, even though he may repre-
sent student opinion. Frye said
that one is not a student until be
has accepted what the University
stands for.
burgh'*, Wjlx commented.
WithDOt the unity meeting, he
said, there is no way of knowing
what its effects will be. The
Western unions would not know
whether or not the lUS was willing
to co-operate when they decided
on policy at Edinburgh, he point-
ed out.
The letter also expressed IDS
willingness to meet with NFCUS
representatives in Europe be-
fore the Edinburgh meeting. This
meeting would be to discuss pre-
liminary ■ arrangements for a
unity meeting. Wax said.. He is
requesting permission from the
NFCUS executive to attend the
meeting, he said.
With the proposal of the meet-
ing NFCUS sent lUS, a Ust of
points which had to be met by
lUS if Canadian students were to
continue working with it. They
include more respect for rights
of minorities, a decentralization
of activity, and the banning of
political affairs from lUS activity.
The letter from Prague said
that lUS secretariat was in agree-
ment with many of the points, and
was willing to discuss all of
them. It also suggested a num-
ber of other points of co-operation
between the two bodies, includ-
ing disarmament, the Five-Power
Peace Pact, and the fight against
colonization.
Had Korea and the subsequent
rearmament program not come,
"Britain would now be on its
feet." Mr. J. Thomson. Deputy
High Commissioner from the
United Kingdom, claimed last
Friday afternoon. Despite domes-
tic austerity and troubles in Ma-
laya. Iran and Egypt. Thomson
felt that th6 British people had
the will and spirit to eventually
stabilize themselves.
The Deputy High CommlssioQer
was speakuig on "Whither Brit-
ain now?" at an open meeting of
the international Relations Club
in the Women's Union. In the
view of the United Kingdom, he
said, the Marshall Plan saved
Europe, and the British Isles, by
providing the necessary materials
and hope.
Thomson pointed out that wiiile
Britain depended to a great extent
on exports, her rearmament com-
mitments were demanding an ev-
er-increasing cut in exportable
producUon. The government m
the UJC. is faced with the job of
teaching the workman to accept
austerity, he stated. In the ques-
Uon period that followed the speak-
er declared that about 25 percent
of Britain's engineering exports,
such as tractors and locomotives,
wliich ai-e in heavy demand, have
had to be reconverted to arms pro-
duction.
Referring to the internaHonal
political sphere, Thomson said
that "giving India her independ-
ence was one of the wisest things
■■ Britain had done. It avoided what
might have been a running sore
for many years." He did not
elaborate on the "spot of trouble'
in Malaya, but only commented
that one "would not voluntarily
choose a Malayan's life."
As for Iran and Egypt, Thomson
maintained that they have open-
ly rejected the "rule of law."
Legally, he said, Britain had the
riglit to- the oil and the Suez. "Dc
we enforce respect lor internation
ar law?" he asked. "Egypt has
the answer." |
Tailung of Britain's future.
Thomson said that she had learned
"to cut her suit to fit the cloth."
In spite of the Colombo Plan
commitments, the $13,000,000,000
rearmament program, the miUtary
training of young men for Eisen-
hower, and the diminished incomes
from overseas investment. Thom-
son felt that Britain would go
ahead In the spirity. of Napoleon's
officers who had said: "If diffi-
cult, then it is done; If impissible.
then it will take a little time."

Mondoy, December
Respect Minorities,
Religious Freedom
In P.Q. — Carabins
The outstanding characteristic
of the province of Quebec is free-
dom of religion and respect for
minorities, according to Alfred
Dubuc who represented the Uni-
versity of Montreal in the dlscus-
Bion on Ontario and Quebec edu-
cational systems which was held
Friday. The discussion was part
of the program planned for the
Tisit of 40 Carabins to the Univer-
sity of Toronto. Dubuc, Warden Ig-
natieff. and Margaret Fleming, IV
TJC. spoke in Alumni Hall, Victoria
College following which the Cara-
bins and their hosts continued the
discussion In smaller groups.
Dubuc said that in Quebec edu-
cation is the responsibility of the
parents and df religion rather than
the state, although the technical
echools. which were started fairly
recently, are directly controlled by
the province and thus are removed
from this tradition.
The technical schools profess
•bsolute religious neutrality, he
»aid. but in reality they are not
absolutely neutral. Dubuc said
Uiat a Freemason controlled the
Btudies of the technical schools, as
well as being Dean of the Sha-
urini^an school, and that the fan-
fttlci!'m of the Freemasons as well
as the alliance between them and
the communi^l'^ was well-known.
Both the Protestants and the
Jews in Quebec have the choice of
forming their own .<5Chool boards,
Dubuc said, allhoush the Jews
have decided to remain under the
Protestant committees as long as
their children do not take religious
instruction. He explained that the
]areer relieious group in the com-
munity elects commissioners while
the minoritv ejects a separate com-
mittee of trustees, both commit-
tees taxing their own people sep-
arately and governing their own
affairs. Because of their respect for
the' religious riehts of minorities,
Dubuc said thit the people of
Quebec are grieved when minori-
ties suffer in other provinces.
Dabuc added that the establish-
ment of a neutral university is a
subject of speculation among
French- Canadian students. Because
all French-Canadians must^ study
in one of two catholic universities,
he felt that as a result the uni-
versities are not as Christian as
they might be. A neutral university,
it was hoped, would mean more
personal and intense religion in
the two existing universities.
Some of the problems facing the
universities in Quebec, he said,
were lack of scholarships, need of
state aid and the problem of fed-
eral intervention in education.
The University of Toronto is de-
veloping towards liberal or "neu-
tral" education, according to War-
den Nicholas Ignatleff. He said
that by this he meant that the
university does not build on any
set of philosophical pre-conditions.
The fact that there is no definite
philosophy of life, the Warden said,
is both an accusation and a de-
fence.
Some people at the University
say that Toronto has a Christian
tradition, but Ignatieff quoted the
Student Christian Mission as say-
ing that the problem is that the
university is not based on a Chris-
tian tradition.
He defined the purpose of the
university as being to examine the
background, not to build on it. This
enables the university to offer
many courses and to have profes-
sors of every type and view. How-
ever this raises the question "of a
professor propagandizing. Warden
Ignatieff said that a professor
could be rejected from the uni-
versity of he claimed that his per-
sonal opinion was the truth.
Toronto has gradually broken
away from the classical tradition,
with a resulting increase in the
dificulty of relations between the
different faculties. He quoted Or-
tega y Grasset as stating that much
of Europe was now suffering from
tlie man learned in one thing and
ignorant In others. Specialization
must be allowed, the Warden felt,
in spite of the resulting worries.

balconj viewpoint
By DAVID PBDDIE
Never have there been so few plays in Toronto as this past I
and two of the best ones were performed at the Royal Alex before
had a chance to review them. We refer to DEATH OP A SALESMAN
and MR.. ROBERTS. The only i-eally first class professional sfcea,
reviewed in this column was the Drama Quartette's DON OUAN m
HELL.
Naturally, after feeling cheated of seeing the usual number ot
good plays, we have spent the last five week.s since the Royal Altx
closed, waiting for the Jupiter Theatre production of GAUIjBO, hopiii^
that perhaps here would be another professional show. But it seem5
that the review must wait until January, for we doubt if this play
will be exceptional.
Of all the local groups, the Jupiter Tlieatre certainly has thp
experienced actors in its cast. The advertising lists John Draine, Lorce
Greene, and Margo Christie, who have all done fine stage work here
even though radio is their main interest, and there are other good
people who are perhaps not quite as well known. Besides being better
tiian average these actors are all getting paid — a fact that is as
unusual as it is encoiu-aging. li the management can made some money
this year perhaps the actors will all make a living-wage. However, «e
are inchned to doubt if anyone will ever make a decent salan,' from
acting alone in this town. The theatre business just doesn't pay iinlea
you live in London or New York, and by all accounts it doesn't pay
too many people in either of those fabled cities. Still people insist on
going on the stage, so let us hope that Toronto doesn't completely
fail thepi.
We think that it will . e in keeping here to mention that the
Jupiter Theatre is trying to avoid the adjective "amateur". There was
a noticeable dash of amateurism in the dear departed New Play Society
and in the presentation and reception of TI-OOQ. It is what one
usually expects of local talent.
Compared with the "Support us and keep us in Canada" theme, the
Jupiter rpheatre has shown great restraint. They are offering tickets
at a reduced rate to students, and they have both a good play and good
actors. Bertolt Brecht is a Genman who spent some of the last war
in America. He writes well and seriously and his GALTLJX> should be
of some interest to people interested In the theatre.
The director, Herbert Wbittaker, used the phrase "epic stvle'
describing GALILEO. By "epic style" Is meant an objectivity in pies-
entation more iike the narrating of a play than the acting of »■
The play does not try to fool the audience into feeling everythin?
along with the characters, but it tries to tell a story and give Uie
audience the point of view of the author. The story of GALILEJC
is told in modern terms so that all can fully understand t)ofJ»
GAULEO and the fact that modern things are not always new things-

To the elements, planks heavily upon the

Sits like a sprawling skeleton, surrounded
By sky-seeking pines, on an ageless rock
That lifts its brutish weatherbeaten head
Above the black depths of a northern lake.

Said the .slim spectre walking-beside him.

Against the pale pink wash of another

Thus you have told me."
"Yes — that was true

Blues Split Games

the scoresheet. Three of the Var-
•ity goals were scored when their
opponents were shorthanded, which
indicates the effectiveness of ttie
Blues' atteck when they had the
odd man advantage. Besides Rope
and Arrowsmith. Johnny Adams
and A] Conboy were the other
Varsity marksmen.
Saturday night at Laval it was a
different story. Tliere the Blues
faced a win hungry aggregation
that showed plenty of hustle in
outplaying the Blues in two of the
three periods. The fact that the
Blues won the intercoliegiate sil-
verware last year meant little to
the Laval entry who doubled the
score on the Friday nisiht winners.
Claude Roy led the Quebeckers
with a neat hat trick while the
Fox-Conboy-Vernon line provided
the spark from Varsity's side. The
Blues held the lead only once,
briefly, in t^ie first period on the
strength of Al Conboy's goal at
the 3:43 mark. However. Roy came
, back with two early goals for Laval
•nd after that the . Frenchmen
Were never headed.
Jack Ross who played goal for
the Blues made several exceptional
saves, especially in tlie second
period and prevented further em-
barrassment for the .visitors. De-
fensively, Varsity was hampered
when Gerry Pltzhenry received a
three-stitch cut near the snd of
the second period and didn't return
till midway through the last frame.
That left Varsity's defence in bad
shape all around, since besides that
fact that Joe Kane didn't make
the trip, it was further hampered
,when Jack McKenzie got one of his
skates bent and couldn't get it
changed.
The game, which was played
before approximately 2,700 rabid
home-town fans, provided its share
of thrills. Twice Blues' centre. Don
Rope, went right in on Laval's
goalie, Vezina, only to be out-
lucked by the stocky netminder.
Along with Conboy, Norm Fox and
Jack Weldrake provided the other
Toronto goals.
Mikemen Win
Skunk Skule
In the inter-faculty hockey
scramble on Friday. St. Mike's A's
whitewashed the Sr. Engineers'
squad to the tune of 7-0, to give
goal-tender Grossi his first shut-
out of the Tnterfaculty season.
St. Mike's scored four times in
the first period, seemingly at will,
with Tom Kane being the big gun,
notching two of his three goals
in this frame. Hunt and McDon-
ald got the other two tallies. '
The second period was still St.
Mike's all the way, with goals by
Kane, Hunt and McDonald, who
seemed to be the only men on the
double-blue squad who could score,
although Arrigo and Jerome miss-
ed several close chances.
Harwich received a misconduct
but served only part of it before
the bell rang.
Best for Skule were Burley.
Hookings and Smith, Burley es-
pecially threw two or three crush-
ing body-checks. For the winners,
Kane, Hunt. McDonald and Cole
shone.

They took the score to 45-25 in
the middle of the third period. From
then until five minutes into the last
quarter the Blues scored only two
points up to 47-40, four hoops away
from a wiiming margin. The Blues
looked very tired and became pretty
disorganized in this part of the
^ame, thiowing the ball away, foul-
ing (Albion scored a large number
of their points then on foul shots)
missing shots, and failing to check.
The Blues were using a zone de-
fence, which while it requires less
rimning, demands very aggressive
checking. Being 20 points ahead, the
team let up a little, but when they
recovered they scored 16 more points
to make the win certain.
The zone defence and the small
gym handicapped Albion, since with
only three men over 6' tall and no
one over 6'2". they depended on
quick breaking. The Blues stopped

Interfae Boxing
By MAL CRAWFORD
The Basketball Blues' win over Albion in their first
home g-ame of the season Saturday night was somewhat of a
•urprise to many, in view of the series of four consecutive
losses at the hands of American Colleges on their recent road
trips. Although the Blues before the season were generally
expected to be better than last year with nearly the whole
team returning, their first two weeks' work did not compare
very well with last year's team's fine record of six wins over
American colleges, including two that beat the Blues in their
first two games this year.
Albion, of course, was definitely below par for the course
—the Blues outclassed them in every department. We would
have to see what the team can do against opposition that can
jump, pass, shoot, and check a lot better than Albion did
Saturday, in order to say whether the Blues are better than
last year or not. We would also have to see them on a fuU-
«ize floor; Albion, with a small team and a quick-break
etyle of play, was definitely handicapped playing in the Hart
House hat box. Wednesday's game at Buffalo U., who beat
loronto by two pomts last year, should make for a better
basis of comparison.
Bud Natanson, back at centre, is a wee bit taller (6'7")
and heavier this year according to the publicity releases
and while he was not shooting as well Saturday as he did
sometimes last year, his rebound work was almost faultless
He has a capable sub this year in spindly 6'6" Ray Monott.
Art Binnington and Lou Lukenda share the forward
post that plays under the hoop on the offensive, just as last
year Ed Maynenck in the "out" forward position is not as
good as Jack Gray last year in our opinion, although he has a
lovely set shot and is probably a little better in a passing
game than Gray.
.. ^ill Huycke, back at guard, is vastly improved. In addi-
tion to his floor play, he can now put the ball in the basket ">'""~ «

One of the events that took place
in Hart House on Saturday night
were the Pinal ^outs « the Junior

ment. The seven matches were
very even tor four of the contests
ended in split decisions.
In the 130 lb. contest between
B. Blanshard and T. NakamichI,
both of SPS. Blanshard was award-
ed a spUt decision. He displayed
fast, hardswing attack against
Us opponent's advantage in
reach and style, and succeeded in
partially closing Nakamichi's left
eye by the end of the bout.
The 135 lb. bout between R. Reil-
ly of St. Mike's and H. Solway of
UC ended in a split decision go-
ing to Reilly. The decision should
have been unanimous, for Bellly

and a very punch for the 135 lb.
class and only Solway's greater
height and poor gumption saved

pimishment.
The 140 lb. contest between C.
Solomon of VC and D. Kissick of
SPS was called off at the last mo-
ment when Solomon reported an
injury received in Friday's semi
final. ^
The 14T lb. final between M.
Miller and V. Prendergast. both
of SPS. culminated in a very fast
exchange, with Miller earning
split decision. The smaller Miller
outfought his opponent in the first
round, just managed to hang on in
the second and came back in the
third to win the officials' nod.
H. TUson of TJC won a split de-
cision over H. Smith also of TJC
in the 155 lb. class, the best con-
test of the evening. It was a very
keen contest, with both fighters
displaying good boxing style and
being in topnotch condition, and
only Tilson's aggressiveness gave
him the edge needed for the win.
In the 165 lb. contest L. Wade
of SPS defeated P. Fisher also
from SPS by a unanimous decision
In a rather one-sided fight. All
that may be said for Fisher, is
that he covered hij.iself very well
and blocked a, good number of
Wade's punches.
The 175 lb. bout- between A. M
Acton of SPS and H. Frame UC-
PHE was a prolonged slaughter
and should have been stopped
much sooner than it was. Acton
was awarded a TKO at 55 sec-
onds of the third round, after he
had proceeded to batter Frame's
face to a bloody mess.
In the last fight on the card, two
heavyweights from SPS. R. Stev-

third win in three starts. Ryerson

half was no contest as the Baby

the best man on the floor.
Ted Tooeood, Argo footballer and
coach of Ryerson, had his hojs
keyed up for this game and they
took advantage of the breaks in
the first half, capitalizing mainlJ

Ryerson didn't score during tihe
first five minutes of the last period
and had only two shots at the well-
guarded Blue basket during that
time. Varsity took advantage of tliis
lapse to pour in 12 points to lead
47-30. Dave Primeau, whose shoot-

Dennis Bisbop, IV SFS
Editor, The Varsity:
The recurrence of a deplorable
editorial attitude last Friday
stirs me to take up my pen. I
should like to reassure the brew-
ers, vintners and distillers of this
country, even the bad ones, that
they have some friends in this
university.
The Son(5)
Of God
Editor, The Varsity:
A report in Thursday's Varsity
contained, a statement that ac-
cording to the Baha'is. the es-
sential teachings of Baha'u'Uah
and Christ are the same. It is
not the case that this is so. The
report claims that it is^ in terms
of their relationship with God
and their purpose in behig sent
to the world of humanity that
Baha'u'Uah and Christ are said
to be equal, since an objective
investigation ot .the Scriptures
of the Baha'is and of the Chris-
tians gives different purposes
for the parallels in their life
sufferings on this earth. Tlie
report claims that "He (Baha'-
u'Uah) bore all these ordeals and
calamities in order that our
hearts might become enidndled
and radiant, our spirits glorified,
our faults become virtues, our
leiiorance transformed into
knowledge". The central doc-
trine in Christianity is that God
laade Him sin. Who knew no sin,
that We might be made the righ-
teousness of God in him. Christ
claimed that He came to be the
reconciliation for our sins, and
that by trusting Him for this we
Ehould have a new life. After,
and only after, this step of faith
^ the atoning deatJi of Christ
our lives become transformed.
^ view of this, it cannot be
Jeld that the essential spiritual
^""^'ngs ol Baha'u'Uah ^nd
are the same.
Sue McKay,

teachiL,
Christ
In parts of the oa-mpus (tliough
of course not in Emmanuel or
Knox) there are people who con-
sider that the choice of beer
over water as a beverage is as
natural, as justifiable, and as
righteous as the choice of filet
mignon over porli and beans as
a main course. There are also in
some o£ the same quarters people
who consider that the businesses
of brewers, vintners and distillers
are as normal as the businesses
of jewellers, furriers and Cadil-
lac-makers.
The products of brewers et aJ
are luxury items. But so is a
filet mignon. Many find these
luxury beverages enjoyable to
drink; some do not. Many find
caviar pleasant to eat; some do
not. Beer has many of the nu-
tritional values, e.g. calories,
found in milk, and caviar has
many of the nutritional values
found in jelly. Some people are
so constituted that the drinking
of alcohol leads them to a con-
dition of illness which makes
their body demand more alcohol
— alcoholism. Some people are
so constituted that the eating of
sugar leads to a condition of
illness which maiies their body
demand moro sugar — diabetes.
Alcoholic beverages are some-
times used to induce relaxation
socially. Aspirin is sometimes
used to induce sleep. The use of
filet mignon, caviar, sugar and
aspirin in due conditions is not
had, nor is it condemned. Some
people are confirmed in their
judgment that the use of the
products of brewers et al falls
properly into the same class.
T^at is to say, there is no
quahtatlve difference in beer
that warrants a peculiar atti-
tude towards Its producer.
Some ascetics might suggest
that whisky is bad because it is
a luxury. Now whiskey may be
bad because there is a dead
mouse in the bottle, but it is not
bad because it is a luxury.
"Luxury" comes from the Latin
luxus" meaning "abundance".
Some people, and I am one of
them, are not afraid of an abun-
dance — abundance of food,
abundance of inspiration — pro-
vided of course that it is m an
ultimately creative way.
I hear objections that lux-
uries" are things above and be-
yond what is absolutely necessary
(I agree), and that not everybody
has, as yet. what is absolutely
necessary (I agree). But with
the implication drawn from this,
that untU all the necessities are
fiUed we should not indulge m
luxuries, I do not agree I will
not condemn the man who, dy-
intr of starvation, spends his last
nickel on the merry-go-round.
It is good for us to burst out a
little occasionally. Besides, .who
even among the nutritionists, will
dare to say a man must have
so many ounces of meat in order
to lead a good, full and happy
^However, I readily grant that
THE VARSITY
sherry, Cadillacs and wedding
rings are luxuries for us. Also,
because the buyers at least be-
leavo they have some superflu-
ous cash, I gi-ant that these items
should be subject to extra taxa-
tion; But the object here is not
to prohibit the sale or indulgence
in luxuries, but merely to tax
the source of some money.
Our province, indeed our
country, is subject to an unfor-
tunate tendency to act as though
it was desirable to eliminate the
luxury of beer by tasation. The
administrators of tlie finance of
the province, knowing human
nature better, are inclined to
a gree wi th the U ni te d Church
observer for other reasons. Yet
I would assure tlie brewers et
al that on this campus there are
some who think that to -facilitate
the indulgence in beer et al is a
good project. To that end the re-
duction of the liquor tax is a
good thing.

Or Christmas
Editor. The Vaisuly:
We wifih ever t merry
Christmas, and w^ ^reeting
early because we \% — »v yo\x> to
shore our hope for a true one. We
have seen Ciiristmas emptied of
meaning. It has become a holiday
without Christ. Without Him, the
conmremaration of Hia Nativity
becomes a- secular fesvival' without
foundation in the supreme joy of
realizing afresh that the world's
Redeemer i~ ame.
Madame Editor, it distresses
some number of people to see
that the brewing industries have
been singled ■ out by a distin-
guished Toronto journal to be
publicly pursued for gifts and
endowments. There is a definite
belief that these industries
should not be treated as special
cases. Some companies In the
brewing industry have been gen-
erous in the past, and no doubt
will be again in the future. A tea
company has been very generous
to one of the colleges on this
campus; tea is a luxury: and
there is no crusade to make all
Canadian tea companies cough
up. If companies manufacturing
any product are pursued by some-
one swinging that product arovmd
as a moral stick to stir up pre-
judice, those companies will
probably give money — but to
one of the - many other worth-
while- enterprises Sn this country.
It would be well, if there were
some journal that still believed
in ideals, that there should be a
crusade fby it to make Canadian
companies more conscious of
their social responsibilities be-
yond the paid-for goods they
render. But no company in any
industry has a greater obliga-
tion to society, as a company,
than any other.
And finally. Madafme Editor,
I shouli like, to deplore, again
in behalf of some number on
this campus, the prevalent notion
that, because brewers are re-
stricted in the advertising they
may do, any public service they
render is done to advertise them-
selves. It may be incredible to
journalistic cynicism, but it Is
possible that a brewer might
render a public service simply
because of its truth. And even
if this were not so. and the
brewer really was trying to ad-
vertise, we might credit him
even if he only selected a real
service that was popular over a
pseudo-service that was popular.
The attitude, "It's only advertis-
ing," is not just.
If O'Keefe's convinces a single
subway worker that this Univer-
sity, although a luxury, is valu-
able, then we owe to CKeefes a
vote of thanks.
I submit these thoughts to your
consideration, Madame.
Personally, I like Molsons.
p. R. H. Alley,
IV Trinity.
May we* urge greater thought-
fulness on tbe part of our fellow
Cliristian students. The Christian,
as well as the holiday, must en-
throne Christ. Let each begin now
to put into his praying and pre-
paring a lively expectancy. Let
everyone keep Christmaa with
Christ and go to church on Christ-
mas Day. Worship Him ascended
with the same confident joy and
hope of his first worshippers.
When choosing your Christmas
cards, consider that the average
greeting card shows sentimental-
ity or mere formality rather than
faith. Christmas is Christ's birth-
day. Make It clear in your cards.
Some people celebrate "Decem-
ber 25th" with meaningless fes-
tivities; otha^ celebrate Christ-
mas with Christ in the centre,
which is the only true way for all
Christians. God gave his son for
us; let us. hi our giving, commem-
orate the loving generosity of God.
Do not make a false Yule but a
true Christmas, Bring back Christ
into the way you will be keeping
Ciiristmas.

Election Notes
Last week's elections to the mcclt parliament proved one
point, which from time to time has been violently debated.
The University of Toronto is definitely not a hotbed of
radicalism. Indeed, it does not even seem to be the happy
home of mild reform.
Judging from the nature of the results, the university
is rather apolitical. Each party received a, respectable
amount of support, without any one sweeping the boards.
As a result, the composition of the parliament presents an
interesting opportunity for political combinations.
The Liberals and the CCF by combining their strength
(2.3 and 22 seats respectively) could defeat the Conservative
chances for leadership of the House. On the other hand, the
Conservatives, could scotch the success of such a scheme by
joining forces with the LPP's (36 and 9 seats respectively).
The result: deadlock.
Either of these measures would require a certain re-
definition of party lines which would be rather entertaining.
The Liberals would have to admit that they had always been
turtle-type socialists, while the CCF would be irrevocably
mi.\ed with capitalistic interest. What price Puritanism ! On
the other hand, an LPP and Conservative connection would
require such fast talking that even politicians would be con-
fused. Something to the effect that extremes meet might
do the trick. Even so, we suspect that George Drew'wuld
be silenced for life on the subject of Communist sympathies
»nd that the LPP would never get a chance to go to Russia.
I The delightful prospects of a deadlock would undoubt-
edly have been enhanced had the Independents formed a
party. Even if only one representative had been elected he
would have been the toast of the House. We rather regret
the fact that Independent ballots have been counted as
spoiled ballots. Undoubtedly they should have organized
earlier, but organizing independents must be almost as dif-
ficult as forming anarchists clubs. The terms are incom-
patible; Independents exist, but not usually in political
groups.
The campus vote, while certainly not a heavy one, was
surprisingly great — in view of the tame issues being
presented. An 18 per cent vote falls short of the usual muni-
cipal vote cast in Toronto, but Jiot distressingly far.
One of the greatest flaws in the whole election proceed-
ings was the complete and total lack of privacy in voting.
There were no polling booths and secret balloting under these
conditions was something of a farce. It was almost impos-
sible to get away from the milling crowd and the sensitive
voter must have had the Orwelliau sensation that
Brother was Watching.
In Monday's issue of The Varsity, the Editor
obviously dissastisfied, among other things, with
the existing state ol the English language, coined
a new word, a new plu-ase, and a new ism. Included
in this editorial there was a statement to the
effect that the students" Coimcil has been failing
to take any action. This statement is not only an
insult but a falsehood, where opinions are related
to specific facts, they can be rebutted: where they
are suspended lifeless in the air, their originator is
spared the trouble of thought and the possibility
of a rebuttal.
In the Tuesday issue of The Varsity, in an article
by Mr. William Gleneslt, entitled "The Prostitute,"
he quotes English Daily Herald a5 statmg that "the
chief function of a newspaper is to report current
events and interpret tliem to its readers." He warns
the readers to "be aware that the event is mediated
and recreated in black and white." He continues,
"if the press must have almost unlimited freedom,
then it is time the publishers wielded a little re-
sponsibility with that freedom." As the publishers
of The Varsity, it appears strange that we should
so condemn ourselves apropos of exactly nothing at
ai: before the student body. It would appear then,
that we have given an unusually free reign to the
Editor and the staff of this paper, but if they are
unwilling to accept that "responsibility" of which
Mr. Glenesk speaks, perhaps such trust in our Edi-
tor and staff is wholly and entirely unwarranted.
I^r. Glenesk continues, "the public's patience has
reached the sticking place and it sprinkles the
news and the Editor's views with salt. The press
has lost its grip on the mass mind and apathy Is
the result. We need a Billy Sunday of the press
A prophet to swfeep the cobwebs of distortion and
prostitution is the answer to the rampant failure of
the papers to communicate the truth" We cannot
agree too strongly with Mr. Glenesk but The
Varsity is diligently and untiringly attempting to
shift the blame to others. They are only the cham-
pions of the people, they damn liberally what
others do but suggest nothing, absolutely nothing.
Their criticisms are not constructive. They claim
great influence and little if any responsibUity Such
a state of affairs would appear to be intolerable.
In case my refutation is also let hanging in ah-
I shall quote a few items which this year's Council
has put through m addition to the heavy load of
business .which is incumbent in the operation of a
Student Government for 11,000 students. The Coun-
cil, through its executive, took strong action to
show disapproval by the students of acts of van-
dalism on this campus. There was strong reaction
to this self-disciplining ending in the motion to the
effect that the committee should not take any
mture action which would reverse a decision of the

OUR READERS WRITE
Our Apathy
Editor, The Varsity:
In Friday's Dec. Ist Vaislty
several statements were quoted as
havmg been made at last Wed-
nesday's Student Administrative
Council which your editorial
stated "indicates a misconception
of the role of The Varsity in Uni-
versity lite". These statements
which 1 presume are supposed to
have been made by myself are in-
correctly quoted. Not only are
they Incorrectly quoted, but they
are taken out of" context. Tlie
first statement to which I refer
is "as publishers of The Varsity
it seems strange we (the coun-
cil) should be condemned by our
own paper". My statement was
made with refei-ence to a charge
In last Monday's issue of The
Varsity where it was stated by
you "where there is no action,
there can be no reaction". Uiis
statement I took to infer as m-
deed did most reasonable people
who read it, that the SAC had
done nothing this year. My state-
ment was "as publishers ot The
Varsity, it appears strange that
we should so, condemn ourselves
aproiios of cxacHy nothing at alii
before the student body". The
criticism as will be seen from this
statement is not that The Varsity
has seen fit to criticize our ac-
tions, but that they should be
specific in their criticism in or-
der ttiat their readers may be
able to judge uje extent to which
the criticism is warranted.
Tile editorial continues to mis-
quote "we are giving the editors
.of The Varsity too .much rein",
when in tact what was said' was
"It would appear then, Uiat we
have given an unusually free rein
to the Editor and stalt of this
paijer. but if they are unwilling
to accept that 'responsibility' ot
which Mr. Glenesk speaks, per-
haps such trust in our Editor and
staff IS wholly and entirely un-
warranted." ■nils statement was
made with reference to the blame
for apathy which The Varsity
was attempting to lay at the
door of the SAC where Mr. Glen-
eak had been pointing out that
sudi Mime Is attributable to the
publisher- of newspapers who
usually dictate editorial and
news policy. I was pointing out
that smce The Varsity Is given a
completely free rein, they should
take the responsibility for the
apathy which ensues if they are
unable to raise the interest of
the student body. I at no time
mtunated Hmt The Varsity
should not be free in- this respect
Indeed, I feel it Is most essential
that they should be; however it
is also essential that they accept
the responsibility for what they
say and do not attempt to shift
this responsibility to the SAC. It
The Varsity refuse to accept re-
sponsihihty. then the problem of
•whether or not the trust is un-
warranted arises. Surely though,
this cannot be the case. Surely
The Varsity is willing to take re-
sponsibility for the "apathy"
which their approach induces. If
in fact such apatliy does exist.
Finally, The Varsity quoted me
as saying "The Varsity considers
Itself the only champion of the
people". VSTiat I did say is, "The
Varsity is diligently and untlring-
Jy attempting to sliift the blaine
(for apathy) to others. They are
only the champions ot ttie peo-
ple, they damn liberally what -
others do, but suggest nothing.
"Their criticisms are not con-
structive. They claim gi-eat in-
fluence and little if any respon-
sibility". Obviously my criticism
was not ot The Varsity's being
the students' chamnioii as it was
not of their criticizing the SAC
How can the student
wheUier or not he is beiii; chsjj.
pioned unless reference is msdi
to specific cli'cumstance.s. Tilt
broad statement which Tlic Vai-
slty made that "where there ll
no action, there can be no re-
action", referred to no speeiCt
action which they felt the SAO
should have taken. The Varsill
.has carrigfi reports of the manj
worthwhile activities of the SA8
the student Union fund. tU
translation bureau, the SH.«I!
campaign, the UTDA debatia!
program, the book exchange, f!«
.employment bureau and ntoflli
many others.
No one has "implied that tin
publishers (SAC) of this am^
are above criticism." Thev ar
not. Neither is The Varsity. We »
the SAC meeting, were mfrel
criticizing their approacli. ^
were pointmg out, first, that Tl"
Varsity must take its share of r^'
sponsihility for any apathy '»l"''
may exist; secondly, that to w
valid, criticism of the SAC
be specific; and thirdls', ll'"' S
have any value, criticism 1"'^"'
better be constructive.
I believe this to be the «ii»'
the Editor and staff, but Ukc «»
other human beings, it is i^o-^^'vi
that on occasion they may
^rred.
Yours truly, ,,

Ken Jarvis was unavailable for
comment.
At least tour times during the | VCU. He appealed for support
course of yesterday evening's Vic- for the SHARE campaign from the
toria College Union meeting mem- ( Assembly.
Publicity Director of SHARE
Fraser Mustard, ni Meds, spoke
to the Assembly. He said that
SHARE is more than aid to Asian
students. The money collected
would be spent to six selected uni-
versities ($4,000), to JBS head-
quarters in Geneva IS4,000). to
provide scholarships for exchange
students ($1,500), to the Canadian
branch ot ISS ($1,500), and to cov-
er campaign expenses ($600).
SHARE officials plan to give basic
tools to the Asian students he add-
ed, giving mimeograph machines
as an example.
Ken Cork, n Vic asked the as-
sembly members to each accept
the responsibility of selling 3 doz-
en Victoria Christmas Cards
They have been moving poorly
he said. To date 5220 worth have
been sold. It will be necessary to
sell $520 worth to cover costs.
The Christmas cards are sold
in competition with the Vic Book
Store. -Since they are not dated.
Cork pointed out that they will
eventually be sold.
Vic's SHARE Committee will be
in charge ot all further sale of Vic
Christmas cards.
VCU President John Devereux
announced, that a letter had been
sent from the financial commit-
tee to all affiliated organizations
asking them to evaluate their con-
bers nad to be reminded that they
were within one member of a
quorum.
John Devereux, IV Vic, read the
section ot the constitution that
dealt With attendance.
Tlie Constitution provides that
members of the VCU Assembly,
.ibsent for two consecutive meet-
ings who cannot give an accept-
able good reason will be expelled
from the Assembly, and will be
prevented from holding office on
the VCU in the succeeding calen-
dar year.
John Devereux suggested that
members give an adequate rea-
son if they leave during the course
of the meeting.

ed the Producer ot the 1951-52 Vic

Final
Issues
Gordon Sparling of Associated
Screen News, Montreal, who has
been producing Canadian films for
twenty years will speak on "Tlie
Problems of Film Production in
Canada" al; an open lecture. Tliis
lecture is the ninth of the Univer-
sity of Toronto Extension Course
series called "The Film and Soci-
ety". Campus co-ordinator, Al
Shay extended an invitation to all
undergrads interested in Canadian
Film Making. Sparling will talk in
the Botany Building at eight
o'clock.
Shay described Sparling, who is
a graduate of Trinity, as the Dean
oC Canadi,in movies, for he has
been concerned with films for
twenty j-ears. Sparling has worked
with federal and provincial film
bureaus, as well as for Paramount
in New York. He is also producer
of the Canadian Cameo series, and
will illustra>£ his talk with pic-
tures.
Shay described this course as a
pioneering one on the campus, as
it is the first one of its kind on the
campus. He commented that it was
a serious effort to study different
aspects of the film.
Tomorrow's issue of The Varsity
will be the last regular one for this
term. Two special issues are to fol-
low. On Friday the annual Christ-
mas edition will appear and on the
following Monday, there will be a
Theme Issue on education. The
Christmas paper will contain news
and coming events. There will be
no paper Thuisday.
Ten Campi Favor
Russ Student Visit
Montreal (CUP) — Two more Loyoia College and Sir George
Canadian universities have
clared their support of the pro-
posed exchange of student visits
between Canada and tlie Soviet

This brings to (en fone-half the

Pins In Particular
Gadgets. A fascinating subject. Without them
where would we be?
First there is that Uttle piece of twisted, metal,
the safety pin. We first come in sliarp contact with
it in our very early days — the baby stage. It keeps
us safely in our diapers and in our cribs. It is also
an educator. It teaches us to say our first coherent
word; "Ouch."
It is invaluable to us later in life. too. Especially
to the ladies. There may come embarrassing
moments when they (the ladies) fall apart. The
safety pin comes to the rescue and pulls tliem back
together.
Then there is another piece of twisted metal. It
stands one stage further on in Uie evolution of the
machine, for tl>is piece of metal has also been
flattened. This is the bobby pin. Its social impor-
tance cannot be ignored. No lady can look refined
when her hair flows over her face. In the movies
they can manage to make the flowing effect a very
aUuiiug one, but movies are fictitious. In real life,
Uxe lady without a bobby pin looks hideous.,
Tha bobby Pin is precious to all ladie« who wLsli
to acqiyre tlie studious air as well. The hair must
be pulled back severely from the face. Pure se.'tless-
ness cannot be achieved in this feat without the
assistance of the bobby pin.
The Casanova who rues the day he was bom
because heredity gave him straight hair can help
the situation out by a little judicious use of the pin-
curl. Once more the inconspicuous little bobby pin
has saved the day.
And then, finally, there Is the king of gadgets,
the clothespin. Effective in keeping spaniels' ears
out of the eating trough, it also has other uses.
Photographers find It especially valuable in the
realm of cheesecake. Ladies, they find, lean alarm-
ingly toward the looser-fitting garments. This may
be very nice and modest of them, but the photog-
raphers feels that somehow it just isn't cricket.
With a few kind words, or perhaps a small bribe,
the rebellious ladies can often be induced to
undergo the clothespin treatment. The results are
admirable.
Clothespins are olsotusod for attaebing clothes-

aminations are specially designed
to assess the candidates against
a standard set up for each type of
position. The type o£ competition
for the various positions is stated
through a formal announcement
issued by the Civil Service Com-
mission.
.All applications for summer em-
ployment with the Civil Service for
students are handled through the
SAC Employment Offices for men
and for women and all enquiries
must be made at these offices.
The Civil Service offers as many
as 1,800 jobs to graduates and
undergraduates over a three or four
month period. Most of the posi-
tions go to students with special-
ized training — in the fields of en-
gineering, physics, forestry, geology

and agriculture. The student must
be in full time attendance in the
academic year preceding the ap-
pointment.
Salaries for undergraduates,
known as Student Assistants, for
the summer, range from $100 to
$185 depending on the field of
speciaUnation, related experience
and academic status. Postgraduate
students, usually assigned as Tech-
nical Officers, may get as much as
$300.
The purpose of ottering summer
employment .to students enables
Uie federal government to carry out
seasonal worlc. such as surveys,
that must be undertaken during
the summer months. While he is
helping to clear up work backlogs
which may arise in certain sec-
tions of the public service, the stu-
dent has a chance to gain valuable
experience related to his course of
studies.

To Compete
Winnipeg (CUP) — Attempts to
keep University of Manitoba stu-
dents from outside sports par-
ticipation were squelched by the
TJ of Manitoba students' union
council recently. The regulation
against playing for non-varsity
teams came from the university
athletic directorate.
Opposition from the council cen-
tered on moral grounds. "The
regulation seems to violate some
inherent right of the student," said
Sterling Lyon of Law. "We do not
■want this university to become a
fieshpot."
The ruling had worked well in
the east and was readily accept-
ed there, said Neil Wood of Com-
merce, speaking in favor of the
ruling.
Council vice-president Harold
Buchwald also said the regulation
challenged/ the right of the stu-
dent to do what he wants to do.
"Is Manitoba to become a wesU
ern annex of McGill?"
The Manitoban. the university
newspaper, editorially granted
that the athletic directorate had in-
stituted the ruling ti improve uni-
versity athletics. But. it said,
••it Is extremely doubtful that an
athlete would play his best game
-under any form of coercion."

CLASS PARTY
FRI., DEC. 14
Wymilwood - 8:30-11:45
All seven of the rooms open off
a brightly - lit, thickly - carpeted
corridor, and except for numbers 1
and 3. they are uniform in size
appointments. The rooms are
decorated in pastel colors, carpeted
with dark green or blue broad-
cloth, and have dark woodwork.
Each contains a comfortable double
bed, a writing desk, a bureau or
I dressing table, book cases, and one
or more easy chairs. All have large
double windows opening north and
overlooking the quadrangle.
The most unusual of the rooms
is the Bickerstaff Memorial Room
or "The French-Canadian Room".
Decorated entirely on a French-
Canadian theme, it contains
authentic pieces of early Canadian
furniture, woodcarvings and handi-
crafts. The bed-spread and cush-
ions were especially handmade for
the room and inside the door is
the old spinning-wheel used in
their production. There are samples
of French-Canadian art and litera-
ture, and a model of a St. Law-
rence-type schooner. Old lanterns
(fitted with electric bulbs) are
used to light the room, and on the
door is an ornate brass knocker
used for years on one of Quebec's
oldest houses.
Over a period of years these
seven rooms have accommodated
men from nearly every part of the
world. A glance at the registra-
tion book discloses visitors from
such far-away places as Aukland.
New Zealand; Amsterdam, Hol-
land; London, England. Among the
more famous guests are Sir Charles
Harrington (Director of National
Institute of Medical Research,
London), Lord Montague (Bank
of England) and The Prhice of
Wales Cthe present Duke of Wind-
sor).
Hart House sponsors a quartet
coptest annually, in wtiich singers
can demonsti-ate their prowess. The
winning quartet has its name en-
graved on liie trophy t« go to pos-
terity with other notorious four-
somes, such as "The FourXlushers"
The rules for the 1952 contest are.
1. Each quartet must consist of
members of Hart House.
2. Contestants in any one quartet
need not be from the same faculty,
college or school.
3. Costumes and choice of selec-
tions are left to the discretion of
the quartets concerned, but the
committee reserve* the right to dls-
quahfy any number.
4. Judges will be appointed by the
committee, and ttie judges:^ decision
will be final.
5 Judging will be on the basis of
musical talent and ente^ainment
value. ^ ,j
6. Eliminations will be held in
January, and the finals are set for

Last Friday and Saturday even-
ings in Emmanuel College, the
Victoria College Musio Club pre-
sented their glee club in a con-
cert consistmg mainly of Christ-
mas music.
Everyone who was there knows
—and no one better than the sing-
ers themselves— that the Vic Glee
Club did not' sound very profes-
sional. Perhaps not so many real-
ize how clpse the performance
came to real excellence. But for
a few faults that should not be too
difficult to correct, this choir
would rank with any other on the
campus. There are many good
things that could be said about
them.-
In the first place, they had evi-
dently rehearsed sufficiently for
them to be able to take their eyes
off the music and watch the con:
ductor, Charles Wilson. He had
real direction to give them, and
It was heeded. The result was
crispness of attack at all times,
and generally well - controlled
dynamics.
Also, the male section of the
choir was astonishingly good. Sev-
en men (only two of them tenors) ,
managed to achieve a fuU-blood-
ed, manly tone, and in spite of
their inferiority in numbers to
give a firm foundation to the har-
monic structure.
What, then, was wrong? The
main trouble was linguistic, not
musical. English is one of the
most strongly accented anguagcs.
and consequently it is not easily
adapted to singing. However, if
a choir will give some thought to
the meaning at the words tli(
singing, very often tlie "•
accents of the words will

typical glee-club selection and an
Italian madrigal.
It was when the orchestra and
chorus combined forces and en-
listed two soloists, Barbara Frank-
lin and James Beer, in a perform-
ance of Bach's Cantata No. 122
that the disaster of the evening
occurred. Here one could go on at
great length hurling criticiEm in
all directions. Suffice it to say that
Beer was possibly the worst Bach
singer this reviewer had heard,
even though the more dramatic as-
pect of the recitative suited his
style better than the dria; that
Miss Franklin seemed, to say the
least, unsure of her part and a bit
awed by it all; that the balance of
the ensemble was poor; that the
i-egistration of the organ continuo
was quite unsuitable; and that the

The International Student Sum-
mer Seminar, and the Interna-
tional Student Service which ran
it,- will be discussed at the Hillel
House, 186 St. George, tonight at
8:30 p.m.
Speaking to Hillel will be Ernie
Shulinan, IV UC, who attended the
seminar as one of the Toronto
delegates, and Pat Daniel, National
Secretary for IS6.
The seminar, which students
from 16 different countries attend-
ed, was held last August in a
French- Canadian boarding school
six miles north of Ottawa.
Sobject of the seminar, which
Shulman will describe, was "The
Needs and Contributions of East
and West". This broke down, ac-
cording to other Toronto delegates,
into an introduction of the West
to Asians, and of Asia to members
of the western countries.
Students from Pakistan; India,
Finland. Germany, and Holland
were represented at the seminar.
Other countries represented were
Israel, Belgium, Canada, the United
States and Ceylon. About 80 stu-
dents attended, half of whom were
Canadian.
The Iniernatlonal Stadeot Ser-
vice will be described by its Nation-
al Secretary, Pat Daniel. ISS is a
university organization originally
designed after World War I for re-
lief for needy students in Europe.
Since then it has extended its
activities to include an educational
program, designed to awaken in
the students the feeling of a world-
wide university community. In re-
cent years the centre of Its activi-
ties has moved to South-Eajt Asia.
Its annual campaign Is being re-
placed on the Toronto campus by
SHARE, which wiU send its funds
to Asia through ISS.

yesterday afternoon, I found'myself wafted Into the Museum
Theatre for one of the Anthropology Department's showings of Carl
Dreyer's DAY OP WRATH. This is a Danish film, never shown
commercially in Toronto, which is understandable.
DAY OP WRATH is a tremendous fUm at times. The love scenes
betw°MtSeSste"s child-wife and his son are pathetic yeammg
at OS best Even more effective is the burning of Marthe, the convicted
witS S tS townspeople and the ciiurch. And the scene when the
young Wife tells her elderly husband that she has been unfaithful to
him is a tense, deadly one.
DAY OF WHJVTH has some slow moments, Dreyer is in no hurry
a^id^mes to get his mood across. But this slowness and some rather
Mic ous sub-titles made the student audience hoot and ho er. Yet
tJiere were other moments, like the love scenes, when hooting and
Serin- came because some were embarj-assed by the feelings shown
on the s°creen (We have learned in the twentieth centuQ- to make love
■with a wisecrack and a munch on a cud of chewmg gum.)
You would think, said one student present, that university students
would at least have more consideration for others. It was just like a

IhPip probably still remains the
7me dissatisfaction with the us-
yal rigidity and lack of imagina-
tion
But"am"ong those of us who try
the Church approach to
faith as there ever was.
r think, there is a turning to an
iQvestigatiou of a faith above that
nf pure rationality.
linlike our fathers, we have lit-
tle confidence in the world that
is going to be ours. We mistrust
our political institutions, especial-
ly on the international level; we
fear the encroachment of the giant
Machine over dwarfed Man; we
are not sure of anything anymore.
So we wonder about religion and
its possible chance of offering a
feeling of security to us lost
It is our growing distrust of hu-
;nan institutions that make us
think organized religion far from
satisfactory. We meet, quite early
in our development, the disillus-
ioning effect of the scientific ex-
planation of things and how they
came to be. Our Sunday School
Bible stories come off badly in the
exchange. IX we go further and
start asking questions then we
are often irretrievably lost to our
Churches and Temples.
But being young, we do not real-
ly care at the time. We have faith
in ourselves, and we are interest-
ed in more immediate things. But
now, a little older, we are losing
that faith in humanity. We talk,
a little beaten before we begin, of
the need for a transformation of
our orthodox practising of religion.
We need an overhaul so that more
of us and our neighbors can be
caught up in a universal desire
for co-operation and goodwill.

tion to a dangerous little book

own idea that the free energy for the synthesis of the first living sub-

He enlarges this idea by stating that he thinks that many of 'he com-

terpretation of God and His at-
titudes.
Simone Weil tells her priest-
friend, that she cannot accept
baptism in the Church because she
does not feel ready for the step.
When God feels that it is time for
her to accept the sacraments, he
will make it known to her. she
says.
Simone Weil goes further in her
criticism of the Church, she says,
the function of the Church as the
collective keeper of dogma is in-
dispensable. She has the right
and the duty to punish those who
make a clear attack unon her
within the specific range of the
function, by depriving them of the
sacraments . . . But she is guilty
of an abuse of power when she
claims to force love and intelli-
gence to model their language up-
on her own. This abuse of power
is not of God. It comes from the
natural tendency of every form of
collectivism, without exception, to
abuse power."
Going further in her unortbo-
dosy, Simone Weil says, "Every
existing thing is equally upheld in
its existence by God's creative
love. The friends of God should
love him to the point of merg-
ing their love into his with regard
to all things here below." We im-
mediately think of all those who
will have as their friends and
neighbors only those who agree on
a particular conception of God.
To love tky neiglibor." she
says, really means, ''a question of
completely anonymous, and tor
that reason, completely universal
love." She cites Christ's ex-
ample of loving thy neighbor, "the
neighbor is a being of whom noth-
ing is known, lying naked, bleed-
ing and unconscious on the road."
Boi'n into an agnostic Jewish
family, Smone Weil came under
the influence of Roman Catholic-
ism. Never baptized, this young
teacher of philosophy studied
thoroughly her own "Waiting on
God." Her saint-like character
is emphasized by the story of her
insistence on eating only the oc-
cupied France food ration while
working in London for the Free
French government. Near starva-
tion and even early death was the
result of this diet on her trail

Paradoxical Disraeli
In Colorful Biography
By Hesketh Pearson
DIZZY. Biography of Disraeli, by
Hesketh Pearson, British Book
Service, 1951, 54.25.
To most casual students of
British history. Benjamin Disraeli
is known vaguely as the Jewish
Prime Minister ot the Rah-Rah
age of Victoria who was somehow
connected with the purchase of -the
Suez Canal. To Hesketh Pearson,
Disraeli was a peculiar combina-
tion of paradox. "Disraeli was
only quite happy at home with
his wile." Pearson writes, "yet,
such was the necessity of his na-
ture, he would not have been hap-
py at home if he had not been
busy in the world."
The busy biagrapber, Hesketh
Fearson. has written over a dozen
lives from Shakespeare to Shaw,
from Dickens to Darwin. After
reading Dizzy, one has the im-
pression that the author admir-
ed no one so much as the color-
ful statesman,.*
Fearson is too thorough to let
the less attractive sides of his
subject's nature pass unnoticed.
But even when he is making note
of Disraeli's faults and failures,
the biographer cannot prevent the
attitude of admiration from creep-
ing in. One is reminded here of
Moravia's definition of loving ad-
miration, which he says is "tak-
ing a delight in contemplating not
merely the beauties but also the
defects, whether they be few or
many, of that person."
Again, Fearson is too skilled to
allow events to overshadow his
subject. He presents a clear and
detailed view of Victorian history,
but lie is constantly pushing Dis-
raeli to the fore, quoting his views
on this pohtical theory, involving
him in ttiat historical event, or
telling of his attitude toward some
social custom. Speaking of an
anti-Disraeli coalition in 1853.
Pearson says. "We must select
only those moments which disclose
the peculiar nature of our pro-
tagonist, whose mere existence re-
lieves in retrospect the tedium of
so much ado atiout nothing."
Fearson argues for this practice
in biographical writing, and plugs
his own profession, in a paragraph
criticizing Disraeli's Life of Lord
George Bentinck. He first quotes
Disraeli as writing. ''Read no liis-
tory. nothing but biography, for
that is life without theory," ihen
adds. "It is a pity he did not heed
his own advice. To [hose who are
interested in human beings, the
story of humanity is tedious and
depressing, because repetitive. In-
dividuals vary; humanity is al-
way: the same."
"Dizzy" reads like a novel. The
plot runs thread-iike through the
whole biography, twisting here and
there to accommodate chapters
on the hero's habits, loves, home,
and attempts as a novelist. Sus-
pense is maintained until the final
chapters. The hero sometimes
comes very close to the realiza-
tion of his dream to be at the top
of his pohtical profession, and al-
most as often an impediment ap-
pears which disrupts his progi e^s.
Until the later years of his life,
Dizzy encountei cd opposition at
various times in everything from
the attitudes of older poliiicians
who called him "whippersnap-"
per" to those of his own parly
who could justly attack none of
i hois abilities so he turned to name-
calling and branded him "the
; Jcv.". According tp his blj^ra-
[ phcr. only Disraeli's patience and
ir.mbition. strencthened by the eo-
I couragement and love of his \sife,
j kept him in the dirty game of poli-
tics.
j Hesketh Fearson has chosen a
' subject who. to say tlie least, "was
' sufficiently sut cf (lio ordin;a y lo
make his portrait \-oilli pLiiiiring."
I He has matched iliis choice with
a lively account of the life, and
ha:, managed to make his ad'iiira-
tioh for the subject compelling and
contagious.

THE HAFSBURG MONARCHY
(1867-1914) by A. May. R. J.
Saunders, 1S51. S8.00.
The Hapsburgs as a ruling
dynasty may now be a has-been
but for centuries they were a de-
termining force in Europe. Arthur
May has produced In his latest
work. The Hapsburg Monarchy, a
splendid sequel to his earlier book.
The Age of Mettcrnich. After a
short i-eview of the growth of the
empire from its medieval begin-
nings. Prof. May traces in detail
the last fifty years of a once-
dominating empire whose capital.
Vienna, still retains some of its
oUi glamour. 1867 marks the year
In which a diial constitutional
monarchy with all the usual bu-
reaucratic trappings was estab-
lished- over the states of Austria
and Hungary. Period by period.
May describes the evolution and
final collapse of t!:e'e two states
which culminated tn the First
World War.
May's central thesis is that this
monarchy existing as it did. for
dv-nastic purposes was unable to
satisfy its diver-ent nationalities,
although it made a njble attempt
to do so. Nationalism, like a dy-
namic centrifugal force broke the
empire asunder. May holds that
the Emp'ri only held together as
iQUg.^s llj.e.ae5epp%lUJt P? f^Wi^J
Joseph held sway.
Since Hungary pla.ved a large
part in the break-up of the empire.
May spends considerable space in
giving an account of the ethno-
logical and cultural background of
the Magyars.
The Hapsburff Monarchy is a
c;ireful study, but this seemingly
academic work is infused with life
by the fluent style of Prof. May.
Although the HapsburK Empire Is
defunct, the pressing problem of in-
to.xitaling nationalism has by no
means di-^appeared. Students will
gain a keen insight Into the prob-
lem of reconciling nationalities and
national minorities by reading The
Hapsbure Monarchy.

THE LONG MEMORY, by How-
ard Clewes, MacMillans, IdSI,
52.25.
j Here is a novel that is neither
'. a world beater nor a flop. Better
than the average novel, it will
hold the attention of the reader to
' the tnd. but once read it will soon
I be forgotten.
PhUipp Davidson is a man with
a long memory. He is the son ol
a tug-master on the Thames es-
tuary. While still a boy he be-
comes embroiled with some men
j who smuggle hunted criminals out
of England. On the evidence of
his girl friend. Fay, and an ac-
complice Pewsey. Davidson is
committed to prison for the mur-
der of the ring-leader. The novel
picks up David.^o!i's story seven-
teen years later when he is releas-
ed from prison and returns to his
former haunts .ilong the Thi; iies.
FhtUpp believes that he was con-
victed on trumped up evidence and
sets out to track (iown the two
friends who betrayed him. Things
become complicated When the nar-
ratcr, a London police officer
conveniently in charge of the case,
reveals that he has married Fay.
Since no modern novel can af-
ford to ignore the psychological
implications of human per.soiial-
ity, The Liing Memory devores
some attention to Phillpp's rc-;id-
juslment to the v.orld from v.hich
he has been excluded for seven-
teen years. This portion of The
Long ftfemory is tile most compel-
ling. However Clewes' s'jie is
disiiirbing. He writes as if every
verb demanded an adverb and
every noun an a-Jjective. As a re-
sult the olmospiiere he creates
remains unconvincing.

The Blues trounc

In Montreal last Saturday 8-5.
The tilt in Montreal was much
closer than the one here, the big
difference being the closer check-
ing of the McGill defence. Blue
Star Norm Mortimer, who tossed
in eleven goals in the first game,
was covered like a tent, but even
so he managed to score four of his
team's five tallies. In their eager-
ness to keep Mortimer off the
scoresheet, tha Hedmen fouled
him on numerous occasions, but
in so doing accomplished their pur-
pose.
The game started off slowly,
TUlth each team scoring once in
the first frame, but the home team
pulled ahead to take a 4-2 lead by
the half. The Blues stayed even
with their opposition in the third
quarter, as each sQuad netted
two But the McGill team never
came close to the Blues on the
round as the Varsity team enter-
ed the game with a 13 goal lead.
Novic was the star of the Rea-
men, as he threw in seven of his
team's goals and generally spark-
ed his teammates. For the Vol T
squad, Larry Rosen at rover and

goal, and played both forward and

Play throughout the game was
rugged, with coach Jolm Kennedy
of the Blues employing four lines
and iwo goal licepeis in an at-
tempt to decide just who is gomg
to make up Varsity's Intermediate
entry. Lawson and Bodnor on the
same forward Une accounted for
75% of the Blue scoring, with Law-

son are to be played in Hart House gym tonight. The Ion
fall basketball season came to an end two weeks ago, and in
the semi-finals last week the two PHE teams, I and 11, van-
quished the opposition to earn the privilege of meeting one
another for the championship in the big gym: If things de
velop as they have in past years, they will also have the privi
lege of playing for the first time this year in front of a fair-
sized crowd.
PHE I beat Nursing in the semi-finals, and Beryl Lewi
sank 16 points for the Physeders. Bob Masterson not havini

year by a Varsity team that out-
fought them. Pew will contend that
the Carabins aren't the smoothest
skaters In the league. They have
several veterans back with them
this year headed by all-star Andre
Charest who scored three goals the
other night when his team whipped
McGill 8-3. Charest has moved
back to defence this season but his
scoring punch still seems to be pre-
valent.
The Blues, who set out for Michi-
gan this week-end for a two game
exhibition stint, will likely concen-
trate on strengthenuig theU- de-
fence this week. Missing stalwarts
such as Porky MacDougall and
John Addison has not helped the
rearguard" situation. However when
Joe Kane returns to action the de-
fence should show a marked im-
provement. Also with Al Fasan and
Paul Prendergast improving daily,
plus the experience of Jack Mac-
Kenzie and Gerry Piti^eiu-y, coach
Bill Wade's worries will likely re-
solve themselves.
The offensive strength of the loc-
als seems well spread out with all
three lines figuring prominently In
the week-end scoring. The Rope-
Wheldrake -Adams luie collected a
;oal each while PhU Arrowsmith
upheld the second line with a pair
of goals against McGill on which his
Avo linemates Ernie Prey and Red
Stephen drew assists. Al Conboy
.vith two and Norm Fox with one
■provided the other Varsity goals.

with Axe Haliburton and the Var^^
brothers, formed the quartet which
dominated the Interfac lacrosse
scene for the past few years on
Med^ teams. With all hut Gear
gone this year, he has stood head
and shoulders above the rest of
the team.
Meds played a cagey sort of game
in the first half, passing little and
running with the hall as much as
and wherever possible to keep pos-
session. At one time they had all
but two men off the floor with
penalties, and Gear ragged the
ball for over a minute till one of
the penalized players came on
again.
Many UC men seemed to be near
collapse in the second half. Meds
had-taken the score to 7-3 by then,
and scored five goals in the final
quarter to bring it to an even
dozen. Meds' passing was greatly
improved, while UC's got wilder as
the game went on.
oBth goalies, Reg. Perkiu of
Meds and smiling Ray Smela of
UC, played good games in their
unenviable positions in front of
the nets. Smela suffered from lack
of adequate checking in front ot
him, rather than any deficiency on
his part. Perkins' play, in the first
quarter when UC was pressing
hard, was very good.-
Aside from Gear, Colin Kilty
was Meds' best, scoring three
goals. Bob McMillan scored one
goal, and played a standout de-
fensive game. Hugh Thompson
scored th.e other Meds counter.
UC's goals were divided equally
amongst .Young, Giles, Eagleson,
and Lainson.

("HE VARSITY
li/iorals On Canadian Campi
Analyzed By McMaster Paper
jIcMaster's undergrad paper, The Silhouette, volunteered to analyse the state of man
ers and morals on various Canadian campi at the conference of the Canadian University
press last year. Out of 21 papers only five replied to the questionnaire. However '.hi= fir'<-
part of the feature offers some idea of where "babes and bottles" fit into the university
In general says Silhouette writer Bill Solly, the results reflect the attitude suggest-
by Jim Knight news editor of The Varsity last year. "There isn't much one can deter-
jjiine about morals, said he One can just guess!" All the people mentioned in the ar-
ticle were on the editorial staff of their respective papers last year in some capacity or
other.
Hart House and the residences un-
der University control. Feature
writer Olga Bruchovsky said: "It Is
actually the Liquor Control Board
that handles the alcohol regulations
here. For example, there is no Uni-
versity statute against throwing a
big beer party on the front campus,
but the Liquor Control Board would
step in and break it up. The pre-
text would be that the University
has no license."

Whiffed
one of the best of these "guess-
came from the McGill Daily,
especially on the subject of alcohol.
A reply received previous to their
suspension of last year considered
alcohol with "the status of an old
and honomed member." Beer,
■n-hich can be bought in the Que-
bec gi'ocery stores, and other drinks
made their appearance at most
games, dances and other social af-
fairs. Legal restrictions on alcohol
were heard of only in the envious
murmurings of visiting Ontarians,
Although the colllfee never sup-
plied alcohol at the dances, the
ndergraduate organizations which
sponsored them usually provided
coke, soda, and other mixers for
the many who "brought their own".
The "good old days" included the
traditional "smoker" parties in the
Student's Union, the inevitable
gatherings of the "whiff en- poofs'
for beer at the " Shrine "-nCafe An-
dre and the rugby games played in
Molson Stadium where "our spirits
included many a bottle and can of
that well-itnown beer," As Mary
Draper, CUP. Editor of the paper,
said in her first letter, to us, "There
are no rules forbidding alcohol at
McGill and no written rules allowing
it . , , we don't think that our pro-
fessors would exactly approve of
alcohol in lectures, but there is no
rule which forbids Itl" and again,
"You ask is there any special place
set aside for tliis purpose. Why set
it a:^ide? ... We don't believe in
setting aside places for drinking
here— we leave them out in the
open."
Last fall, however, when intoxi'
eating beverages were sold at a mix
«d function in the Union. McGill
was forced first to submit itself to
a suspension, then to a number of
new regulations concerning
roxicating beverages: alcohol is for-
oitiden at dances, beer is to be al-
Jowed only at Stag and Club par-
ses and smokers, and cocktails
can only be allowed at the McGill
umon "if the President of the Stu

The amount consumed by the in-
dividual student at Toronto, how-
ever, is a different matter, since
who drinks, and what he drinks,
is something left up to him and
him alone. "There is more drink-
ing," says Miss Bruchovsky, "than
there was ten years ago, but now it
is so much easier to obtain liquor."
Blue?
Only one case of drunkenness in
which punishment has been handed
out has occurred since the war at
Dalhousie University at Halifax,
which forbids the serving of alco-
hol at any university function. Any
breach of this regulation or any
other unbecoming conduct is sub-
ject to regular university discipline.
Drinking is definitely prohibited on
the campus of Acadia University
too. As far as the co-eds are con-
cerned there is no drinking what-
soever in residence. To be caught
in residence is punishable with ex-
pulsion. This also applies to the
male population on the campus.
Too Much
L, C. Coleman of the Queen's
Journal states the case for Cana-
dian students in regard to alcohol:
"Canadian students don't neces-
sarily di-ink too much but rather
drink in the wrong manner. Their
object, too often, is an end effect
of drunkenness instead of a deshe
to use drinking as a social stimulus
and a source of pleasure to the
palate. This, I feel, is something
common in our whole society and
not confined to imiversitles alone
— undoubtedly one of the after-
effects of the prohibition era. How-
ever, as is commonly felt, univer-
sity 'students, if anyone, should be
enlightened, and if our society is
to adopt saner ways, they must be
among the first to adopt them.
"This large percentage of stu-
dents at Queen's, when they first
arrive there, have done little or no
drinking. They also are usuaUy
faced for the fh-st time with ab-
sence of parental restriction. Like
most people, they- have a fair
amount of -the sheep complex,— i.e.
follow the leader— the leader in
this case being the senior students.
They note that these students
drink and often to excess. To show
that they are 'one of the boys',
they also start to drink, and to
show that they aren't 'stick-in-the-
muds' they don't hesitate to tie one
on. They get the idea that they
are being pretty smart and boast
about their exploits with the bottle,
rather than being ashamed of their
weakness. They are not to be tot-
ally blamed since their elders offer
them such a poor example."
Receptions"
students are seldom awai-e of
the fact that dances have only been
held at McMaster for approxim-
ately the last fifteen years. At
Acadia, which is also a Baptist uni-
versity, dances are called lecep-
tlous. In order for a reception to be
constitutionally possible, seven top-
ics must be- given during the even-
ing. This is handled by a Social
Committee. Topics are entertammg
features which are held during
Intermission. The word "topic"
comes from the topic-evening pop-
ular at Acadia in the twenties.
Couples would promenade about a

By Ten
Rulings for late leaves for girls
in residence at Acadia are quite
stiff: Saturdai- is a free night for
all but like Cinderella, twelve o'-
clock is the deadline for late leaves.
All the co-eds receive this privi-
lege. Preshettes must remain in resi-
dence two evenings a week. Ijate
leave is considered to be eleven o
clock excepting Saturday night.
Sophs receive two late leaves, Jim
iors three and Seniors may have a
late leave every night. Sunday night
is another free night, but ten o'-
clock is the requu-ed coming-in
time and ten-thirty the late leave,
for this evening.
Co-eds
John Cunningham^ of the McGill
Daily has some interesting com-
ments on Chorus Lines and Group
Behaviour at this University: "The
topic of Chorus Lines and Women
Cheerleaders could possibly faU un-
der the heading of sex. For years
McGill students have been clamor-
ing for drum majorettes and co-ed
cheerleaders. — as a matter of
fact, a yell has been devised to reg-
ister this disapproval. The Board of
Governors regulation on this reads
"Women Cheerleaders and Drum
Majorettes are not permittsd
McGiU University. TTie appearance
of women students in 'chorus lines'
will be approved only in those cas-
es where the girls appear- on an ap-
propriate stage as a part of a reg-
ular performance approved by the
Student's Executive Coimcil and
provided that in no case shall the
girls apepar in chorus costume in
any part of the University ouild
ings except on the said stage." At
the Senior IntercoIlegi3.te football
games, where McGill is the only
University forbidding the perfor-
mance of drum majorettes and
women cheerleaders, it is not ai
uncommon sight to see male stu
dents impersonating co-eds for the
amusement of students who are de-
prived of a pretty pair of legs."

not her part in "The Man-iage of
Figaro". Her intensity would be
very appropriate in "Porgi amor'
or "Dove sono", but "Deh vieni" is
not the full-bodied thing she made
it. Suzanna is only a little girl, sud-
denly overcome by the moonlight.
Even Rossini's countess-to-be is

portrayed in Miss MarshaU's "Una

Demonstrate
Against Store
In Montreal
Montreal (CUP) — The McGill
Daily reported last night that the
demonstration by University of
Montreal students on Saturday
was ineffective in stopping buyers
from entering the large depart-
ment stores which had advertised
that they would stay open on th6
day of the Feast of the Immacu-
late Conception.
The Daily imported that the picket
lines were easily broken up by
police. The demonstrators sang
impromptu lyrics to the tune of
a hymn and chanted "a Loi pour
tout le monde" — the law is for
everyone — while picketing.
Saturday was the first day that
a new city by-law ordering the
closure of stores on Roman Catho-
lic holy days was enforced. Stores
remaining open faced a $40 fine
and possible padlocking if con-
victed a second time. The padlock-
ing of the stores would be done
under a different 1^ than the
provincial padlock law which ap-
plies to communists. Ordinai'ily the
city law is used to close gambling
and disorderly houses.

We became concerned too. We did not like to think of
such suffering going on right under our noses when possibly
something could be done about it. And so we investigated.
Yestfrday, one of the coldest days this winter has yet
offered we went to see the guard at the wind-tunnel en-
trance toThe campus on the east, to find out whether or not
he thought things were all they might be. We had to wait
about twenty minutes for him to get back from his relief,
and during that interval our ears and hands became very
'^"''^ When he returned, he answered our questions by saying
that one gets hardened to the weather. He admitted that at
times it gets very cold; But he pointed out that guards are
relieved three or four times a day, and never have to stand
at their posts for more than two hours at a time. One s ears
get weathered, he said. Ours, however, merely got cold.
He concluded that he could not completely agree that he
was not being treated unjustly, but granted that -university
guards were not treated any more unjustly than anybody
^'''^'We also contacted the office of the Superintendent. We
were told that last year the guards got through and didn t
freeze and didn't die. They are supplied with plenty of warm
clothing, and relieved three or four times a day. Moreover,
the Superintendent's office had received no complaints from
entrance guards, and we were given to believe that if guards
felt maltreated, they would complain.
The Superintendent's office had at one time considered
erecting guardboxes for the shelter of the constables. But
investigations stopped when it was made apparent that guard
boxes would make the carhpus look "more like a penitentiary
than it does." .
Our friend the guard had a concrete suggestion. Queen s
Park is rented by the University to the Province for a nom-
inal fee, on a 99-year (or there-abouts) lease. Queen's Park
repi-esents a lot "of open, unused space. Unused space re-
minds the modern mind of parking lots. The constable sug-
gested that Queen's Park be used as a parking lot. Those us-
ing it would have space near.thc campjis to park their cars.
A fee of about fifteen cents a day would pay for a warm
coat and cap for an attendant to guard cars and contents.
If this is effected, guards will not longer be needed at
campus entrances.
And we suggest, if the guard's plan is carried out, that
the cap be provided with ear-flaps.
Editor, The Varsity:
, Mr. Alley's letter of December
10 concerning advertising on the
part of breweries indicates
rather little In the line of rea-
soning. Any argument that makes
diabetes caused by excess sugar
analogous to alcoholism caused
by excess alcohol, and goes on to
prove drinking no more danger-
ous than eating sugar — any
such argument is beyond dispute
because there has been no ar-
gument other than a rather ill-
chosen analogy. If you really
want to know, Mr. Alley, the so-
cial consequences of excess al-
cohol compared to 'excess sugar,
ask Dr. Rogers, the medical con-
sultant to the Provincial Police.
He would inform you that alco-
hol is involved in 75-90% of auto-
mobile accidents. Or you might
seek guidance from the Yale
Institute of Alcoholic Studies.
This is no self-righteous temper-
ance group, yet they would in-
form you that your laboured
analogy of alcohol to filet mig-
non. caviar and sugar is labored
— and rather ridiculous when
the social consequences of these
excesses is compared.
Now. Mr. Alley, exactly what
is it that you are saying in your
rather long and disconnected
letter? It seems that like a good-
preacher you have left your text
to the last in order to keep your
congregation guessing. Your last
sentence is — "Personally I like
Molson's". That is a noble text,
Mr. Alley, and one deserving of
consideration but I ask_ you, is
it really original, is it really
thought-provoking, does it really
merit such a long byild up as
your letter bestows upon it?
It seems to me that we have
yet another suave sophisticate
bursting for self-expression, an-
other eager young debonair soul
thirsting for acclaim — and the
method used is a shock, sup-
posedly. So our suave sophisti-
cate chooses a whipping-boy and
proceeds to belabor him to the
(supposed)' delight of the by-
standers. The easy assumption is
made that all Christians are
hypocrites and all temperance
supporters are self - righteous
cranks, and then the unequal
battle is on. The imaginary foe,
the joyless, puritanical, ascetic
modgrationist. is hunted, treed
and rid(jled with a musket full
of crushing analogies comparing
alcohol to filet mignon and
caviar. I ask you Mr. Alley are
you not being too severe? It is
rather heartless of you to use
such telling ,^rguments against
such an obviously bad and weak
foe.
To return to your text. "Per-
sonally I like Molson's", I siig.
gest that your letter is analo-
gous to the supposedly shocking
statement of the little boy wlio
proudly announced to his mother
on his eighth birthday — "Lool!
Mom, I'm an atheist" only to be
met with a pat on the head and
the rather disconcerting reply
— "That's O.K. son, you'll giow
up one of these days."
You say, "Personally I like
Molson's". I say, "Sure — so
what".

Comment
Toronto's other morning daily stated yesterday in un-
equivocal terms that Toronto students regaled themselves
with no less than sixteen parties over the Carabin weekend.
An astounding figure. We can only guess at how that num-
ber was attained.
Our guess is that the program of events was scanned.
.When the two religious masses are deleted, sixteen events
remain. The sixteen "parties" then include the arrival at
Union Station; a tour of the subway; a tour of Hart House;
various lunches; a bus trip to Caledon Hills Farm; a Sunday
afternoon tea; and the departure from Union Station. More-
over, students participating in the Carabin welcome, includ-
ing the director of the weekend, could not recall more than
Bix possible parties: three parties proper, and three post-
party parties.
Editor, The Varsity:
This year, as usual, the con-
stables of the university polic«
force are efficiently serving the
university and its members, es-
pecially at the eastern and
southern entrances to the cam-
pus. If is also apparent that no
provision has been made to
shelter these officers, at their
various posts, from some of the
most unpleasant aspects of the
■weather, such as high winds and
rain. At the eastern entrance,
the officer can shelter beneath
the overpass, but this becomes a
wind tunnel during the winter
and because of the location ol
the barrier, the officer caivnot
stand in the sun on bright days.
At the southern entrance there
Is not even the shelter provided
by a building coping. Some form
ot guard box which would stave
off at least the more rigorous
weather would do mucli to im-
prove conditions for these
gentlemen, who appear to have
neither the diversions of a regu-
lar "beat" t>r the minimum of
comfort usually afforded bar-
rier pickets.

Chatter
And Click
Editor, The Varsity:
We have on this campus a stu-
dent theatre. It has. for the last
five years, produced consistent-
ly good performances of the
better plays. As students we
have the privilege ot seemg
these production for a very rea-
sonable price, on Friday night
■we saw this privilege abused.
The play started at 8.40 p.m.,
10 minutes after the time sched-
uled on the tickets. This per-
iod of grace should be suffici-
ent for all those people who
find it impossible to be anywhere
on time. By 8:45 on Friday
evening we were so annoyed
by the continuous interruptions
of latecomers that we kept count.
No less than 45 people, nearly
10 percent of the total audience
straggled in by 9:05. A large
percentage ot these were stu4-
dents. '
Audible chattering and the
click of heels could be heard in
the entrance corridor. Even af-
ter entering the theatre proper,
some of these delinquents found
it impossible to make only the
minimum ■ of noise. The odd
seat may bang when someone
edges into the centre of a row.
But removal of coats, rustlihg
of programs and whispers ot
"What has happened?" and
who is speaking?" are entirely
unwarranted.
These disturbances are not
only annoying to the paying cus-
tomers but also to the actor or
actors who are on the stage.
We found from talking to them
that this night was no excep-
tion- it everyone was seated IW
9-05 they felt relieved. Such an
iU-mannered display is neither
fashionable nor in keeping wiB
the spirit of a true theatre-go-
er.
As regular customers of Hart
House Theatre and as students
of this University, we feel tna'
Hart House Theatre has enousij
prestige to do something ab™'
the situation.
We suggest that people w»
come in alter the performanM
starts should be required to m'-
QUIETLY in the lobby unt" »
scene change allows them to w
seated without interrupting i"'
-audience. li some of these ate
customers feel this is a shglit o'
their dignity, their money siou»
be refunded and they should o'
allowed to go home in shanio "
in rage, whichever reaction tne>
immature natures dictate.
We sincerely hope that «
management ot Hart Wf
Theatre, the students and n
Board ot Syndics will take del"
ite action to prevent the rec"
rence of another such annoyi""
evening in the theatre. „ ^

A motion allowing the Independents at the University
of Toronto two seats in the coming Mock Parliament was
approved yesterday ^y each of the fourth parties of the
Mock Parliament Committee. The motion was brought in by
David Fry, IV Trin, and was supported by the spokesman
of the Independent group, George Brigden, IV UC.
It will be Introduced to the
legislature at the beginning of the
first Mock Parliament, to be held
next January 10th. in the legis-
lative assembly of the Parliament
Buildings. It will be moved by Fry.
who win be allowed to speak five
minutes on it. and seconded by
John Medcoff. IV UC. leader of
the opposition.
The *' motion, _ as worded by
Claire Bacchus, IV UC, chairman
of the Mock Parliament Commit-
tee, reads: "Moved, that the Inde-
pendents be entitled to one rep-
resentative on the Mock Parlia-
ment Committee, and two seats in
the Legislature during the pres-
ent session: and that the Indepen-
dent members proposed to the
Mock Parliament Committee, by
their spokesman must be accepted
by four-fifths of the Commitlee.'
The two independents who will
represent the Independent party
will be picked at the next meeting
of the committee on January 8th.
Two people tentatively suggested
for the seats are Vern Turner. IV
UC, and George Brigden, IV XJC.
Many other have indicated inter-
est in the Independents, and the
choice of members is not restricted
to those signed to a recent letter to
The Varsity, said Brigden com-
menting on support of the move'
meht.
In stating the case for the Inde-
pendents. Brigden said that from

Representative from the Liberal
party to the Mock Parliament
Committee. John Medcof. IV UC,
pointed out that "a decision was
made and publicized early ' thi-s
year stating that only recognized
parties of the University of To-
ronto would be acceptable on the
ballot".
Said Brigden, "We came late as
a result of seeing the political
platforms as they appeared In The
Varsity. We feel that independent
opinion must be recognized and
we will give as ijidependent opin-
ion as possible." he said.
At the same meetini:, David Fry.
IV, Trin,. and leader of the Gov-
ernment, outlined the bills his
party had agreed to. One of these
bills must be accepted by the
speaker of the House before we can
go ahead he said, and we will notify
the parties as to the choice before
Christmas. The suggested bills are
(1.) to introduce comprehensive
social security; (2) to establish a
Government Grants board for
Universities, and Increase bursar
its to Universities; (3) to amend
the Liquor Control Act of Ontario.

The works will be judged on

that UC is not a college of art the

in 1930 under the United Church
of Canada, and is now on furlough
in Canada.
As well as (rcatiog: diseased
persons both surgically and men-
tally, he has organized village
clinics in Angola where native dis-
pensers are able to administer in-
jections of chaulmoogra oil to ar-
rest leprosy. This is laying the
foundation for more adequate
treatment of this disease. At the
hospital many native workers are
employed in doing research on
prevalent diseases in that part of
the world.
On arrival in Canada for fur-
lough early in 1940. Dr. Gilchrist

ATL Card Always Help
Except to Get to Lecture
•'May I see your ATL card
please?" CUck. "Okay, go on in"
and you proceed with another
fi*amp, mark of perforaticffl on
this handy little card-of-all-uses.
Admit To Lectures cards have
been around the University as long
as anyone can remember and their
value seems to increase each year.
Your ATL card starts off in
September. 18 inches long, in the
University Registrar's office. When
an application for admission is^
received, an ATL card is made
out. The Chief Accountant's Of-
fice claims the right-hand portion
lor their files. The little sections
on the left-hand side are filled out
by the IBM machines that ease
the work in the office. The Reg-
istrar's office then removes the
next section for their files. This
section contains the studentc
name, course and other pertinent
information. The remaining sec-
tion is then sent over to the cor-

rect college or faculty where our
imaginary student, John Doe piclcs
it up when he registers at the be-
ginning of the year.
This eight inch piece of paper
becomes increasingly important
to Doe as he proceeds through the
functions of orientating himself at
college. By now he (or she) has
name, student number, college or
faculty, course and si^ature of
a registrar on it. No matter how
Icmg the student stays in university
he ret^s this same number, the
first two (Ugits of which represent
the year he began college. The
other digits indicate the order in
which his application was receiv-
ed.
Then by going around to the var-
ious activities Doe is reduced to a
series of letters, numbers, symbols
and various hieroglyphics. He is
given a physical education num-
ber and letter up in the left hand
corner. His state of health is
stamped immediately below that
and the fact ttiat he passed his
swipimlng test and when he pass-
ed it is indicated underneath.
Football fever is in the air and
the UTAA takes up that blank
space to the right of the year when
Doe purchases his tickets. The
numbers one to five are all that
is left and these fill in a variety
of uses. Special sports events and
so on will cause perforations
that will obscure these numbers,
niat. then is just about all that
the athleUe portion of the ATL
card will take so Doe concentrated
on the other four inches.

book) is obtained. The UC "Lit"
punches a hole somewhere in the
blank space above that when Doe
voted in the "Lit" elections. The
"U" is crossed out during the
Mocl: Parliament elections. For
some unknown reason, a star like
perforation was made over the
small number "13" on one stu-
dent's card. His signature is
needed when he goes to Simcoe
Hall to get^s examination pseu-
donym.
One of the important values of
this ATL card comes in regard to
retail merchants. Some firms
that make surgical instruments
will grant reductions to Meds stu-
dents on instruments on presenta-
tion of the card. A florist reduces
the price of flowers to studepts.
two firms rent dress suits to stu-
dents at lower prices and a movie
theatre lowers admission, all on
the presentation of the omnipotent
card.
Impersonating a person by us-
ing their ATL card brings down se-
vere repercussions. Suspension
faces those who use ATL cards lor
r&i personation at exams and other
important University activities and
confiscation of the card will re-
sult from using the card illegally
at sports events. Loss of the ATL
card means a seven day wait at
Simcoe Hall . Then cards are
stamped "Duplicate."
These cards are very valuable
for use in identifying oneself at
banks, at the border or when
questioned in connection with an
accident. In fact, there isnt
much that these cards arent
used for, except, perhaps, to be
admitted to lectures.

The last great violin prodigy was
Tehudi Menuhin who, at the age
of eleven played the Bach, the
Beethoven, and the Brahms violin
concertoB — all at one concert. Last
Monday evening, a new prodigy,
fifteen year old Michael Rabin
dazzled the audience at Massey
Hall. There is no doubt that Master
Rabin will follow the steps of Mr.
Menuhin and develop into a great
artist. In.' his concert, Mich&el Ra-
bin showed that- he .already pos-
sesses the two requisite qualities
for a great violinist: a superb
technique and an amazingly rich
tone.
The boyish nonchalant ease with
which he played Sarasate's' Intro-
duction and Tarantelle and the
four Paganini Caprices ' (21, 13, 24
and 3), with their staccato, flying
staccato, dificult doublt stopping,
long intricate runs, ana the other
paraphernalia of violin bravura'i
was astonishing, and, at times,
breathtaking. His technique has
almost reached the point of per-
fection. Master Rabin, as well, has
an extremely resonant tone; it ab-
solutely fUled Massey Hall with
sound.
Perhaps .where such a tone Is in-
dispensable is In Bach. In his
performance of the first four move-
ments of the Bach Partita in D
Mhior for violin alone, Michael
Rabin gave it an organ-like full-
ness and grandeur which is the
very essence of Biach's writings
for the violin. His tone infused
lyrftal passages, such as the
end movement of his main ^
the Meodelssc^n Violin Conc^
with a great warmth and bea^
However, what Master i^l,

"The International Stuaent's
'Service is based on the concept of
the university as an association of
people with certain common ideals
and Interests," said the national
secretary of ISS, t*at Daniels. "To
the ordinary individual sttfdent or
professor it offers a chance to take
part in- the program of assistance
and education between members
of the various university communi-
ties," continued Mr, Daniels, in his
address to members of the Hillel
Foundation.
The ISS in Canada really got its
start during the Second World
War, as Canadian students realiz-
fcd the need for European reUef.
Since then. Canadian students
and professors have contributed
over $100,000 in cash and kind.
Last year, at the University of To-
ronto, ISS sponsored the AVA,
whose proceeds went to fulfil part
of the programme of relief in India
and Pakistan, and it is hoped that
this year's SHARE campaign wUl
the same thing. These funds
Piovide medical diugs, student
health centres, and books and jour-
nals for Asian universities.
The double-barrelled ISS pro-
gramme provides also for interna-
tional education, based -on Cana-
dian scholarships for refugees, and
international summer seminars.
"I would be inclined to believe
tiiat even if the cold war hadn't
developed, and if we were not re-
arming, our obsession with full
employment would still have given
us a real problem of inflation,"
said Professor W. C. Hood in a
talk on "John Maynard Keynes"
to the Political Science Club last
night. Hood believes this situation
to be partially a result of Keyne's
preoccupation with the problem of
unemployment,
Keynes believed that saving was
dangerous in a depressed commun-
ity. Hood continued, and anti-
thrift campaign could receiv<
theoretical justification through
Keynes. "Hlstory may prove him to
be more of a bauble and less of
an explosion because of the set of
problems with which we are forced
to deal today," he added.
Among the unusual facts about
Kaynes which Hood mentioned
were that his mother was Mayor of
Cambridge, his wife a ballet danc-
er, and he himself "was one of
those people who hated to get up
in the morning and consequently
did a great deal of his work in
bed." Possessing an admirable
combination of talents, Keynes was
an economist, artist, administrator,
writer, the friend of many and
had a strong faith in reason and
in England, he said.
For Keynes* policy came first,
then theory. Hood said. He wrote
voluminously for the press, and
■"his books were an appeal to the
intelligent for support of ideas
which he had aired weeks or
months before", he added.
' He knocked more of the dickens
out of the classical economists than
he really had to," Hood said. As in
his condemnation of the gold
standard Kaynes often overstated
his case and wanted to 'go whole
hog'

Tills distinguished Canadian land-
scape painter was born In Barba-

In 1905 he moved to New Bruns-

Canada ever since. Mr. Roberts is
a nephew of the late Sir Charles
G. D. Roberts (naturalist-author)
and a relation of Bliss Carman.
Mr. Goodridge Roberts rarely re-
paints bis landscapes from a draw-

life". He has been described by
some as a Romanticist, and by Paul

Alabama Looking
For Ugliest Man
Auburn, Ala. — (Exchange) — Stu-
dents at the Alabama Polytechnic
Institute are now engaged in the
search for a male member of the
student body who has a face "that
is ugly enough to scare away a
hangover."
The winner of the contest will
receive the Illustrious title of
UM.O.C. which means the Ugliest
Man on the Campus. The proceeds
of the contest will be used in the
various service projects of Alpha
Phi Omega, the honorary service
fraternity.

stated Editor Walt MacKenzie, tV
Meds. "Instead of being a cata-
logue of the graduating students, it
will be a diary of student activities
on the campus," he added.
The pictures and the biographies
of the graduating classes are "com-
ii^ along well" according to Mac-
Kenzie. The staff of the Toronto-
nensls has sopie trouble each year,
of course, wilii the large faculties.
This year, as in the past, there wUl
be the usual number of students
who won't have theu: pictures or
biographies in the Torontonensls
because of their lack of enthusiasm
in the project.
The reduced prices will be in ef-
fect' tUl the end of term according
to MacKenzie, That is, the cost of
the book will stay at $3.00 per copy,
until December 21. Then the price
goes up to $3.50 in the second teiro.
The extended timfe limit is to en-
courage early sales and because
the students studying under DVA
don't receive their checks until
Friday. Early sales mean a better
chance to estimate how many books
will be' needed.

Dorothy Leiberman, n Pre Meds,
reporting on the recent Carabia
week-end said that "this man from
the Glove and Mail was kind and
helpful, but he was around for
the whole week-end and it seem-
ed to be almost an intrusion."
Wintrob then requested that th«

their misrepresentation in report-
ing that the week-enders held IS

porate an amendment to the mo-
tion, which would also thank tha
downtown paper for their co-oper-

Morris Keurtzer, n Law. added,
I saw the newsman around and
I wish that I had followed him
more closely, because he appar-
ently attended 16 parties while I
heard only of two."
Tim Armstrong, n Vic, report-
ing on Jhe publicity for Student
Help for^Aslan ReUef and Educa-
tion, stated that public relatlona
men were busy addressing sever-
al faculty governments. He said
that Fraser Mustard. lU Meds,
had spoken to the Victoria College

SHARE plan for raising $1,200 at
Victoria. He added that Ken

Dorothy Leiberman estimated
that after the $2.00 fee still owed
by Carablners had been paid, there
would be a surplus of about $250

Art Review
Goodridge Roberts
The current show in the Hart House Art Gallery consisU of 33
paintings by Goodridge Boberts. Most ol these are oiis; nine are water-
colors. AU paintings, except one, are landscapes.
■ The paintings haws no immodSate impact, their colors are quiet,
their composition straight-forward/ their theme '■ bread -and-potatoes"
landscapes. Yet there is a great vitality and maturity m all ol them.
The colors are serene but very subtle in their minute variations.
The composition is simple but rhythmic and unaffected. "Hie subject-
matter Is typical Canadian landscape-scenes which only a lew people
dare to paint — the edge of a forest, a meadow in summertime, a
simple rocky tieach.
The landscapes are presented in moody but unspectacular atmos-
pheres. There does not seem to be any interest in the play ol the
sun-rays over the surfaces, but rather in the blending of the scene
■with its natural every-day setting. This all is presented m a broad,
unconcentrated. unrestricted space, which is not confined into the
frame of the painting, but which seems to continue all around it.
The paintings are behind the frame (viewed through it) rather
than in it.
Goodi-ldge Roberts does not simplify the masses into more geo-
metrical forms characteristic of the Group of Seveii. Instead he
fiimplifies the shapes to their rhythms, inherent movement, and general
visual qualities. His principal means in achieving this is an energetic
end final brush stroke. Best examples of this are "Samedi' and "Edge
of Clearing".
The Optical illusions of perspective are minimized by the com-
position, a strong continuity of the "horizontal" plane of the picture, j
and the bnishwork which does not decrease in size, but only slightly
in its clarity.
- The water-colors have a lighter and more luminous character.
They too are handled very energetically. They avoid the slight touch
of pettiness, found in almost all paintings in this medium.. On the
other hand, they do not have the definite mood and great subtlety
in color changes of the oils. The colors tend to run.
The whole ^ow presents a problem of monotny in representing
only a short creative period. This tends to limit the subject matter, the
tnoods, color and composition into ar definite, closely related group.
The exhibition will remain on tne walls until the end of this
term. It will be reviewed by Mr. Goodridge Roberts himself on Dec. 19
at 6 pJn. Both women and men of the University will be admitted.

This is the second article on "babes and bottles". It is an ana^sis on
the sitate of manners and morals on vaVious Canadian campi conducted
' by Bfll SoUy of the McMastcr undergrad paper, Th« Silhouette<.
Jim Knight, in his reply from The Varsity,
headed his answer by speaking of his newspaper —
"As you have seen, we go in more than somewhat
for a fair representation of the student 'body' in
our paper. The fact that we go in for it more
on the physical side m.ay tell you something. Un-
fortunately, the featme won't tell you a damn
thing."
He did make' one noteworthy observation on
alcohol: "As a result of the decreased revenue,
more dances are held on the campus, rather than
at the big hotels downtown. Since liquor is for-
bidden on the campus, it has become more diffi-
cult to get the stuff from the bottle into the .
drinker at a dance. Wl^en a dance is held at a
hotel, it is customary for a group of people (any-
where from 4 to 40) to rent a room in the hotel
where drinking can be done in peace, if not in
quiet. On the campus, it is necessai'y to creep
guiltily into a washroom for a quick one, and
unless the girl has her own bottle, she doesn't
get a drink at all. Even with these increased
restrictions, there doesn't seem to be any decrease
in the amount of drinTcing done at dances, al-
though it never was serious enough to constitute
anything like an orgy, fortunately, or unfortun-
ately, according to one's point of view."
On Group Behaviour McGill said: "When a large
group of students' mass for such^things as a Pep
Rally or a football game there are certain inevit-
able results. . . . BEDLAM is usually bound to
break loose. The Pep Rallies which usually fall on
the eve of the Senior football games are very
notable for their rowdiness. I>ast year, before the
Toronto game, one of the year's biggest rallies
was held. Many street cars were stopped by stu-
dents breaking the connections with the power
lines; the majority of the downtown movie
theatres were forcibly entered by groups of stu-
dents who would give a McGill yell and then
leave for the next theatre. This sort of student be-
haviour does not help to endear the University
to the citizens of Montreal. The last Pep Rally
of the season was confined to the McGill campus."
Other problems on our subject come up at
Queen's: one thing that aids and abets the drink-
ing problem is the ratio. At this university it is
roughly five men to every girl. "Like anyone their
age, recreation looms large in the minds of Queens-
men," says Coleman. "A large number of the most
attractive "forms of recreation involve a date, and
there just arent enough girls tto go round. Some
solve this state of affairs by taking out local girls
but many of them are tied up with local fellows
so that still leaves a -large shortage. That leaves
shows, athletic events and pubs as the om
recourse, since a town the size of KjiT^ ^'bf.
strictly limited in its recreational facmtfe**^"
"Apart from the problem engendered >,
ratio, sex life at Queen's has little that is ' %
tional apai't from the fact that most of th^*^"'^
at the university live in residence which

Another interesting institution peculiar
Queen's is the annual Sadie Hawkin's Week p

co-eds take over the social initiative. "There

many pros and cons regarding this institut:
a university like Queen's . . .'it not only proviti '
a relief to many male pocket-books but also ni-^^
vides many of the girls with an insight into th"
men ... it can also produce bad. results with ii^
financial problems which exist for many of \\
egos and inferiority complexes of many of th^
men. The traditional climax to this week is
dance on Friday night. In past years this ^ ^
referred to as the Dogpatch Drag and often ao^
preached the proportions of a Bacchinale. in
the Drag reached such proportions that univer
sity authorities clamped down on it and since that
time it has been a somewhat watered-down ai
fair. One of the chief objections was to the cos"
tumes worn, many of which were supposedly a\\\t^
Indecent. For the following two years costumes
were banned, but in the last year or so they have
been gradually making their reappearance, brink,
ing which is occasional at most Queen's dances
is somewhat more prevalent at this one, and it u
not . to uncommon to see a couple airive with i
gallon jug of ready-mixed 'Kickapoo Joy Juice '■•
At Queen's, one significant feature which dif.
ferent from most other. Canadian universities js
that there is a strict ban on fraternities and
sororities, which eliminates a factor which would
produce disunity in a 'college of this size, if it
existed. "While fraternities may have their piace
and be good things at some of the other un ver-
sities," says Coleman, "the general feeling among
the student body at Queen's fs an emphatic 'We
do not want them here.' "

doing a hell of a
(and a country) that has "made ^
materiallEm a god, and in all the ■
many possible ways has reaped
the somewhat dubious benefits of
that devotion and faith. We all
know the stories of the breakdown
of the family, and the increase of |
neurosis, and the deplorable :
vacuum which is so typical of the
modem white-collar man. We have
increasingly seen diatribes against j
the popular arts, and their inevit-
able corruption; the big-fixes of
sport, the massive display of thigh I
and breast and subtle tummy in !
the brassiere ads, the clashing
cacophonous jangle of modem
music. We have watched with dis-
may the gi-adual retrenchment of
the individual as he handed across
more and more of his soul to the
large corporation and to that moa:,
massive of modern corrupters, the
state. We have ridden our way
through two huge, inutterably de-
structive wars in three decades.
And ^e have been unhappy. We
have perverted wisdom and plea-
■ sure and a good life until there
is a definite release from ten-
sion when we finally plunge our-
selves into what might almost
seen a welcome catharic. the -
modem, scientific war.
Enamoured of the machine and
the amazing creature comforts it
can provide we have forgotten
about our insides. have left our
emotions to the purveyors of
cheap tricks in the market place,
and are now caught up in a great
confused flood of conflicts and
contradictions and paradoxes
which seem each day to become
more complex, more unmanage-
able, subtle paving blocks on the
formerly stony path to Hell.
You see what I mean: given a
, little imagination, and quite a few
trite phrases, (mostly copped from
cleverer men I think) you can be-
gin to structure a -world from
which there is no possible escape,
except in death. Even that final
release isn't entirely certain.
It is a small wonder that the
modem intellectual deplores the
Press, while the masses devour it
dally. They seek release from
things they know not, and sur-
cease frcrni sorrows that touch
them in these emotional sores
which no amount of machine tech-
nique has been able to breed out
of us.

say. It is weU to recall that WUl
Rogers was a comic of tlie fiirst

Anyone who approaches the
modem Press with a Will Rogers'
attitude is really eligible for treat-
ment by the growing body of psy-

in -particular tor it, is what it tries
to be. And that, In the mam, is
an abstract mirror of its world.

ence lUonitor. along with an as-
sorted selection of comic books,
paper-covered "novels" and
some of the more famous pulps.
It has always fascinated me
that tew discuss the Tribune.
(Toronto Daily Worker), Cana-
dian High News, The North 'To-
ronto Herald, and the similar
rash of small circulation pun-
lications which reach, in cumu-
lative terms, a huge number of
persons.
The reasons are of note: like
everything else in lite we tend
pick the .great mass-produc-
. the rotary press builds large circulations
ed supremely successlul
fums "ather than those whicl^
still exist (and perhaps always
will exist) in the margina
r'eas of profits and successlul
enterprise.
And discussing the press we
usually forget the othei mass
•^es if * "laswr oi media of which the Pf^f^^^'
't to ■^^*'°"^^*^^PPento really only « part, t^he iftcuo^
We are in ftg^ , tfi^ fUm. tuid that am&sma eyn-
thesis of audio-visual hypno-
tisni. television. Wiien we do
a Glenesk we immediately re-
strict ourselves to the narrow-
est limits of our bias and pre-
judices because we ignore any
perspective; and make it impos-
sible to-apprecia!e and improve
communications because we are
already blinded and seduced by
their brilliance and their ef-
fect.
Let's stick to the Press, and
particularly the larger, . metro-
politan daily, for this discus-
sion, always remembering that
it is but a fragment of the to-
tal picture.
The modern Press is the
spawn of sometning that no
amount of psychiatry and pby-
chology and clever statistical
mariiet research i ever going to
work out of us : an ingrained
curiosity about other people
which the poorest of minds usu-
ally possess. Tiie Press, in
these days of higli-speed re-
production, and far-flung com-'
municatlon systems, has taken
on more important functions,
but basically its function re-
mains the same: to tell people
what other people are doing,
thinking, saying, whom they
are divorcing, raping, killing
and exploiting, and particularly
of late, why. The why, as we
increasingly reahze. depends on
something more subtle than
curiosity.
News as defined in the above
paragraph, is an extremely
valuable comnr^odity. It is al-
so very dangerous for the min-
ute that men begin to learn
what is going on they are theo-
ritically able to make up their
own , minds about things, a
thought that often horrities
philosophers. A free Press, as
understand it, indicates a situ-
ation in which you are able to
publish anything- you wish,
without reference to morals or
manners. There has never been
such a thing as a completely
free press, and even where it
does exist partially the freest
part of it is often tne poorest in
terms of Commercial success.
Newspaper editors learned
early that it was the trivia of
^he world -that titillated he
masses. And the man who dis-
■ covered (or perhaps '"ven ed
the headline, soon iound thai
its screaming announcements
Iif the great human tragedies
was the surest way to keep the
profits up.
With the advent of modern
machines it became possible to
Ss.rSe nils Y'^^ITLll
masses ol people •>n'l '"J^^
circulations so typical of the
twentieth century were devel-
oped.
TO rant about this type of de-
velopment of the Press is to tilt
afa windmUl. The barons of the
rotarv machines were (and are)
SJrV^'^mr'hi^-t^'
(and may be) other motives, but
you need to make money to stay
in the publishing business. This
may all have been a horrid mis-
take, and it is quite possible that
it should never have been allowed
to happen, but tne whole develop-
ment of the democratic world
would have been a different and
perhaps an impossible thing with-
out the Press.
Today the Tress works under
conditions of tension and speed
which are equalled in few other
enterprises, its beat is the world,
a world from which editors draw
the important and trivial items
which go to make up any confus-
ed day in the life of a modern
man. Editors may or may not be
interested in the Trui;i: that is
not their job. Their job ia to
pj-eyent selected hunks of Uie, of
the great, the unhappy and the
deformed in mind and spirit
(what the public will buy) selected
because there is far too much to
cover, and condensed for easy
■ reading, the kind of thmg you
can keep your eye on as your fel-
low slaves jostle you about in a
Bay streetcar in the five o'clock
rush.
The Press Thay be very deplor-
able, it may sometimes give your
stomach an odd turn, but it is
probably lar closer to the "truth"
than any of our clever pundits
writing in the literary m."!>azines
would admit : for the modern
Press is in a sense the mirror of
the modern man. and that as I
have pointed out earlier is some-
thing that you can get very
morose about in the best of mod-
ern times.
Anyone wiio Has managed to
struggle this far, and having
heard the first and second les-
sons, may now prepare himself
for the sermon. Which I promise
will be short.
Those who advocate revival
remedies, such as Glenesk sug-
ge&ted in his "Billy Sunday of Lhe
Pres?^," or those emotional ciinr-
latans who would support the
substitution of one vacuum for .
«.nother — a false understand-
ing ol what we have with an at-
tempt to purify the Press and
bring It to the living Truth, are a
httle off the beam.
I think It is probably more
honest to recognize the Pres> for
what it is: ~a reflection of our
society and ourselves. It is not an
exact reflection, any more t lan
the vi^^ion we may sec of ourselves
in a wind-swept quarry pool.
An* what is needed is citizens
who will not be drowned iti this
flood of newsprint and rag p .:)cr,
of film and sound, of curves and
impressions and propaganda. W«
need rather persons aware. of me
place that the Press and otiier
media hold in uui- modern world,
perH>ns who will ^laiul up to the
fhallenge and c-in tribute to tlie^e
media an ur/elenling flow of
ideas and clear thinking and
hone-t values as they may under-
siand these things.
Given a sense of numor and a
feeling of huniilty the more pas-
sive reader may yet find it pos-
sible to work out a sensible .r t-ti-
tude toward those great forces of
ma.ss communication which are
one of the wonders of our time.
Perhaps we may someday f en
find it possible to control b-Uh
the forces and ourselves.
It is always well to remember
in moment of panic that maybe
the world isn't g^slng^to the b: v-
wows. And that even if It is. Lhe
Press will be there to report it.

In spite of the fact that only three of last year's senior
team are back, the number of good grapplers trying to make
the wrestling team this year has diluted any pessimism
that coach Kirk Wipper might have felt before the season
started. Most of the good prospects are members of last
year's intermediate team, like "Wild Bill" Chykaliuk, Ernie
Dryden, Glen McCormick, Larry Skitch, and Walt Pitman,
all of whom won Intercollegiate Championships in their
respective weight groups. A lot of good prospects showed up
in the Junior Interfaculty Championships last week too,
like Bob MacKenzie, Phil Henderson, Pete Nichols, and Ted
Bowers, who had never wrestled before for the University.
Olympic weight classes and rules have been employed for
the Intercollegiate meets this year, and for most of the
other meets as well, since this is an Olympic year coming
up. and many of the University champs will be trying out
for Canada's team. •
Prior to the Intercollegiate, the team meets traditional
opponents such as OAC, Buffalo, and Rochester. Last year
after the college championships Wipper took two of hi^
best men down to Cleveland for National Championships, and
will probably do the same this year if he thinks the men
look good enough. Hugh Graham (177. pound class) and Bill
Dingwall (191 pound class) made the trip last year, and
put up good showings although both lost theirjirst bouts.
The lower weights are pretty well stocked with return,
Ing team members. Joe Goldenberg in the 123 pound class
was senior last year, as well as Ontario novice champion.
Walt Pitman, who was the Intermed champ in the 137 pound
class last year, is the likeliest choice for the new 130 pound
class. With Hom Hatashita in the 137 class, there is ample
reason -for a prospective limb-twister in this weight moving
down. Hatashita won all his bouts last year except the
Senior Intercollegiate, which he lost by one point. Wipper
IS every keen on all three of these men.
Al Hebert, the senior man in the 147 class last year, has
graduated, as has the intermediate entry. However, Paul
Phelan, who was injured last year, and Stan Kopera, last
year's Intermediate manager, are just as good prospects
right now as the men who they replace. Bill Bush, in the
167 last year, is ineligible this year for academic reasons,
but Orie Loucks, on last year's Intermediates, Pete Nichols,
Junior Intertac champ this year, Dan Cucin, and many
others, are vying for positions on the teams in this group.
A somewhat similar situation exists in the 167 pound
class, in which Intercollegiate champ Pete Hopkins has
decided to try for good marks in his Meds course this year.
Bob MacKenzie, also in Mefls, just started wrestling this
year, but has the distinction of having pinned the Junior
Interfac winner this year. Irv Salsberg.
Bill Chykaliuk will be hard to beat in the 177, but it is a
very strong class, in which Phil Henderson and Ted Bowers,
the Interfac finalists, are contenders. Doug Hamilton and
Larry Skitch enter the space left in the 191 class left by Bill
Dingwall, undefeated last year. Leon Smith, the high
jumper, is another fine wrestler, but he has not been out
as yet.
Rev. Harry Robinson, S'4", 215 pound senior intercol-
legiate heavyweight entry last year, is back for another try
Ernie Dryden, the Intermed champ, will fight the Wycliffe
strong boy for this position.
After practice bouts with North York AC Thursday
night, the team will have a lay-off till Jan. 12, when they
meet Ithica in the Athletic Night here.
B-Ball Blues
Go To Buffalo
Wilson Back
Both the Senior and the Inter-
mediate basketball teams go down
to Buffalo tonight to play the
Buffalo University Bulls In .the
team's first double bill on the road
this year. The intermediates will
play the Buffalo Junior Varsity in
the preliminary, and the Blues
take on the Bulls' first team.
Good news comes from the Blue
camp, m the form of Bill Wilson's
return to a Varsity basketball uni-
form. Bill had planned to take the
year off the sport in order to catch
up on his course, but most people
considered it a matter of time till
Willie gave in and came -out for
practice. He has been working with
the second line so far, since Bob
MasEerson Has shown no inclina-
tion to brealc up a winning com-
bination by changing his first line.
Wilson was one of the Blues' top
scorers last year, behind Natan-
son, Gray and Brennan. He handles
and dribbles tJie ball well* will play
one of the "out" positions on the
offensive, and will likely play for-
ward on jump-offs.
Buffalo is reputed , to be a
powerhouse this year. Tliey beat
McMaster by the fantastic score
of 106-40, and have slaughtered
several other colleges. Tliey beat
Varsity 74-60 in one of the To-
ronto team's better games at
Mutual Street Arena last year.
Chalmers, their top performer last
year, is gone, but little Jim Rooney,
who scored 16 against Varsity last
year, and averaged about the same
figure over the season. Hal Kuh.n,
who potted 14 against Toronto, is
also back.
Lawson, -who handled quarter-
backing ohores for the Blues al-
most single-handed this lall, was
the number one veteran on the
squad. Alex and Johnny Evans were
the only two players on the 1948
championship team that defeated
the Western Musangs in the play-
off game. Performing as an end
for the Blues, with pass -catching a
specialty, during the 1948 and 1949
seasons, Lawson flunked in the
spring of 1950 and was forced to sit
out of Intercollegiate comtpetition
for the next year.
In his final year at SPS this sea-
son, Lawson was converted into a
quarterback by Coach Bob Master-'
son and far exceeded his fondest
hopes. Almost flawless play-calling
and some ex(^llent ball handling
made Lawson one of the chief fac-
tors in Varsity's imdefeated season
this year.
Alex spent his year away from
Intercollegiate competition coach-
ing the Junior SPS football team in
the Intramural League and as play-
ing coach for ttie Skule HI basket-
ball team during the winter.

Basketball JFi nal
The women's baskettoall
was brought to a climax in the final
game, last night in Hart Ifouse,
with P3:JE. Sophs defeating the
PYeshie team 26-21. Both teams
were in top shape, and the outcome
was doubtful rigTit until the end,
with the firs year playing an excel-
lent game against their more ex-
perienced opponents.
At the end of the first q^uarter.
the Preshies were ahead by one
point, but the Sophs took over after
that, and were leading 12-8, at half
time. The third quarter showed
both teams at their best, in fast-
moving play, with the second years
retaining their lead. The last quar-
ter was a repetition of the previous
action, bringing the final score to
26-21 in favoxu- of the Soohs.
Alma Hatch got away after a
close-cheoked first quarter to amass
a total of 18 points, for the victors,
with good support by Anita Hicks
'and Donna Ho'wson. Beryl Lewis
scored eight points for the Preshies
in a good steady game, and Mary
Binnie led the very effective first
year guards,
Ue Senior-Jimiors came out 21-
19 victors over School of Nursing in
the Consolation Basketball finals.
The scoring was pretty even all the
way; Donna Parr and Jane Ney-
on the sideline
hard, but UC managed io I
ahead by a small margin.
After a 6-5 score in favo;
at half-time, the third qujyj
more productive, marked i
effective long shots by both J
bringing the score to 15-!! r
still ahead.
Following a tense final i
the totaF came out to 31-13
UC gii-ls. Tliey had pm'A

Now that the Varsity female cagera have folded away
their basketball "dickeys" for another year, the hockey
enthusiasts are venturing forth in to the chill, grey dawn to
limber up their skating legs at Varsity Arena. This year's
schedule promises some rugged competition with Trinity,
Vic, UC, Meds, PHysed, POT and St. Mike's each pledging
two teams apiece. And it's anybody's guess who will finally
come out on top of this three-group league. Games get
underway right after Christmas — the opener slated for
Jan. 7th.
For the "really keen", an all Varsity squad will be
picked in February by the referees. This team will meet
the Varsity grads, OCE and some wiry high school groups.
Curator Joan Mathews has high hopes for a game with Mc-
Gill, but this is not definite. Queens withdrew their team
last year so if there is going to be any intercollegiate com-
petition this year, McGill looks like the only contester.
Which all adds up to a pretty interesting season. C'mon
gals sharpen up tho«e skates. So you have given up trying
to be a Barbara Ann. Want to try for a Max Bently?

The term "freshman orientation" has a pretentious, even
formidable sound. It seems to suggest that students coming
from high school to university need as much acclimatization
as a Hottentot moving from darkest Africa to the east end of
London. Possibly this is too extreme a view.
The necessity of introducing freshmen to the university,
not just to the college or faculty to which they will belong,
has become increasingly obvious during recent years. Too
ofteti students are indoctrinated into a course and faculty
without ever looking at the. great beyond — the university
as a whole. And no matter what course a student may be in,
• there is always a great beyond.
This tendency to ignore the woods and study the trees
ha,s serious im))lications — both for the students and the
university. For the university means far more than any
specific course and its success as an institution depends
upon student recognition of this fact. And as far as students
are concerned, they will miss the whole point of the univer-
sity if they accept it merely as a grev road to a career,
rather than as a technicolour production to be accepted on
its own merits.
Thence, freshman orientation. Thence, the desire to
show the university in all its' myriad aspects to freshmen
before they have a chance to lose themselves in their course
and college. Thence, the belief that students should be told
something of the purpose of a university, meet faculty mem-
bers who might otherwise remain unknown to them, "be told
about .some of the extra-curricular activities, and be intro-
duced to students from every faculty.
At the University of McGill, the whole idea behind
freshman orientation was considered so important that the
first year entered university a week before term began —
with the sole purpose of seeing and talking about the uni-
versity which they were going to attend.
Thus far, the University of Toronto has done little more
than exhibit schizophrenic tendencies of character. Last
spring's plans for an all-universitv freshman orientation
program were met only with a wide measure of disagree-
ment. In short, they were not adopted.
Tlie whole comprehensive scheme petered out into four
tea dances to be held in the four arts colleges. Of course,
freshman orientation has to begin somewhere, but it is
questionable whether it began at all this year. Or if it ever
could begin with tea dances.
The freshman orientation species of tea dances were
supposed to be rather intellectual affairs with "lots of chairs
and little dancing". In practice, they seem to have been
like any other tea dance — lots of dancing and empty chairs.
The whole meaning of freshman orientation seems to
have gone its own sweet way to oblivion. However, the
route which it took is entertaining. The "tea dance plan,"
spon.sored by the Students' Administrative Council, has been
under the surveillance of the Co-ordinating Committee.
Now, this committee was set up at the end of last year with
the intention of cutting down on extra-curricular activities,
by co-ordinating them. At this point it is in the rather-
ludicrous position of having added four more tea dances to
the li.st of activities which, last year, were considered too
extensive. They have added grist to their own mill and called
it orientation.
' The Students' Administrative Council this year has
sponsored an orientation plan which is little less than mean-
ingless. In endorsing the plan, however they indicated their
approval of the idea. Surely, it is not too much to expect
the SAC to find some way to implement the idea, for next
jrear, at least.
Editor. The Varsllyj
Yesterday you printed a fatuous repij Mr.
Alley's excellent letter, penned by one of our
earnest young campus Christians. Our man of
God allowed his righteous indignation to overcloud
his intellect and tlje result was an appallingly
un-Christian outburst ot name calling and fan-
tastic jumping to conclusions. Our young chris-
tlon first acknowledged his lack ot humor by tak-
ing seriously the analogy between sugar and
alcohol. He then implied that Mr. Alley was at-
tacking his breed personally, "The easy assumption
is made that all chBl^tians are hypocrites and all
temperance supporters are self-righteous cranks,
and then the unequal battle is on." Now I admit
that Mr. Lougheed is probably a good example ot
a self righteous crank, but Mr. Alley saia nothing
ot the kind. He merely stated that beer in itself
is no evil, that it should be treated and classed
with other Juxuries, and that brewing companies
should not be especially singled out for fund giv-
ing, because their contribution to society Is some--
how different from other luxury producing
industries.
Mr. Lousheed uses up a valuable paragraph of
The Varsity's space in vitrlQlic name calling ot
the worst kind, "sauve sophisticate bursting for
self-expression, another eager young soul thirsting
for acclaim," etc. Dear me, disciple of Christ, is
this exactly the Christian- attitude? You accuse
Mr. Alley of saying nothing and then proceed
to do the same yourself. I earnestly recommend
that you atone for this outburst this coming week
by practising just a shade more Chfistlan meek-
ness and ttte "turn the other cheek" routine.

IV THnll,
Ornithologist
On
Birds
I am by nature reserved, and
seldom could I justly be accus-
ed of false enthusiasm. In fact,
I am often classed among the
cynics who find nothing amus-
iag or even mterestlng. How-
ever an occurrance of last Sun-
day had such an affect on me
that it exploded the lid from all
my moral inhibitions and has
driven me to bare my most sec-
ret feelings.
First I must confess that, in
spite of ray apparent sobriety,
I do have a secret interest
which has captured my whole
being in what has now become
irrepressible enthusiasm. I re-
fer to the study of Ornithology,
vulgarly referred to as bird-
watching.
Nothing in my life takes pre-
cedence over this interest which
some call a hobby, but which is
really an obsession with me.
Even education, which, my fel-
lows attach such importance to,
suffering in a secondary posi-
tion to my beloved bird-watch-
ing. A glance at the files in the
Registrar's office will provide
the proof of this statement.
It was last Thursday when I
first heard that a group of Or-
nithologists from St. Trinian's
College ware planning a gang
bird-watching expedition tor the
week-end. Although I usually
practise my observations alone,
the natural attraction to peo-
ple whose Interests are coinci-
dent with my own convinced me
that I should join their group.
Shortly before dawn on Sun-
day I arrived at the rendezvous.
I supposed I should have real-
ized that St. Trinian's was a la-
dles' college, but my excitement
at the prospect ot a whole day
engaged in "gang-watching"
had, I must admit, left me com-
pletely without reason. Trere
was some embarrassment on
both sides when 1 arrived. But
as soon as I spoke the girls
realized- that I was one ot them.
My vei"? appearance must
have persuaded them that I
was a genuine, because I had
taken great pains to dress in full
Ornithological regalia. 1 was
wearing my mauve beret at a
jaunty angle, my pale green
Eisenhower jacket, which open-
ed at the throat revealing a
new scarf engagmgly bedecked
with printed chlck-a-dees, and
my risque strides with flap
pockets and triple out-seams.
This practical outfit was sup-
plemented by my instruments
of observation slung at the
ready over my shoulders. Long-
range artillery binoculars hung
from my left arm, a browme
was strapped to my waist, and
a small over-night bag, held in
ray right hand, contained a sand-
wich and thermos of fruit punch.
The first part of our day was
'spent in research at 'Christie
pits , sometimes called Willow-
vale park, and often referred' to
in other terms by the parents of
the -district. After an unsuccess-
ful search for a Red-breas
Tail-snapper which had been
ported in the area,' we wenl
High Park where we spent l
afternoon,
I find words so inexpressin
when I attempt to tell ol U

Midwinter IVigikt^s Itream
I^ast night as the silent snow drifted about the cam-
pu.s. students sat before the great yxile log in Hart
House, and their carols waited out the vaulted windows
to mingle with the guiet tones " of the winds.
While the buildings slumbered, the trees beside the
library nodded to each other, and the oaks by Trinity
stretched themselves. Even the dragon on the University
College newel post stirred and smiled, for the voices of
the capoUers had told Mm that Christmas was nigfli.
As far as most of the students were concerned the
evening passed without catastrophe. But one was averted
only by the slightest of chances.
Things happened like this. Early in the evening the
imps and elves, the fairies and leprechauns, the sprites
and even the gremlins were all out sitting on the
window ledges listening to the music as they brewed
plans for the holiday.
And in University College the dragon sat alone. Wlien
he first came to this country he found Canadian cus-
toms very strange. He really is an ejttremely shy, timid
creature, but as he so formidable the wee folk
had not been too friendly. And the fact that he couldn't
dance well enough to join the faerie ring by the side
of philosopher's walk, or tread lightly enough not to
leave foot prints as he travelled at night (his tail always
dra:,'ged on the ground) did not help him any.
So he sat alone on the newel post and pondered
the problem. Perhaps, he thought, if he practiced, he
could become Just like the ferocious dragons of story
boobs, or Ube the one that the professor said Beowulf
slew the other day; and then he would be able to
protect the wee folk, causing them to regard him as
their own great warrior and hero. Yes, that was exactly
what he would do.
By MAIRGHREAD
As he wamlered about the campus he growled at all
the statues, even though they never batted an eye,
and snarled at the little gray library kitt«n who just
laughed and chased him up a tree. Nevertheless he
didn't give up. for he had a premonition that the time
would come when he would be needed. And it was.
For in Knox college there lives a sprite named
Johnny. Now as you know, sprites are by nature
mischievous, but Johnny, who takes his name from
both Calvin and Knox, has raised more commotion than
any other protestor thought of doing. It was he who
placed a copy of Fi-eud right next to "A Handy Guide
for Snakes" in the book-store. It was he who. with
Jack Frost, painted the colleges on Hallowe'en; and it
was he who broke the windows in the Zeta Psi house
last weei^.
And now Johnny was up to his tricks again. Bribing
the mouse in the Hart House pantry, he had obtained
a laige jar of molasses which he proceeded to pom-
down all the chimneys in Hart House. This might sound
like a fairly harmless joke, until you remember that
Santa Claus is making his annual inspection trip just
now . . . and as Johnny hoped, it was more than
likely that Santa would get stuck in one of The chim-
neys-.
lake all dragons, the University College one was
hungiy last night, and just at the time when Johnny
and the Hart House pantry mouse were cooking up their
fiendish plot, he was raiding the ice-box. The dragon
heard the plot and he knew that he oouirt
Santa to be stuck in the chimney. But wii t ■ !
do? The wee folk wouldn't listen to him-
Johnny and the mouse wouldn't. "Whatever h

And Santa did come while the battered dr

Twenty years ago. the Univer-
sity Settlement had just moved
from Adelaide Street to its present
home at 23 Grange Road. At this
lime. Dr. Wasteneys. a prominent
member of the Hart House Board
of Stewards and the Board of
Governors of the Settlement made
a suggestion that a supper be
held to provide a bit of Christmas
cheer for all the male members
of the Settlement. This was ac-
companied by some form of en-
tertainment: the traditional sing-
song, whicli included many carols,
and a magician.
This first affair was so suc-
cessful that the Board decided to
make it an annual institution, to
be financed and arranged by them
in co-operation with the Settle-
ment start. But over the years
there have been some changes
from the original form of this

membership, it is only for the
younger boys 8-12 years, number-
ing about one hundred; all are
regular members at the Settle-
ment. The Hart House Supper
Party is the event of the year for
these kids; they talk about it for
months before and after.
On Wednesday, Dec. 13th, the
boys will all meet after school at
the Settlement House, slicked-up
for the occasion. They will go en
masse by special bus to Hart
House. They have the use of the
pool, if they want to swim; or the
gym for baseball and other
games, and to watch a display of
acrobatics and tumbling. "The
Camera Club Quarters and the
Rifle Range are also at their dis-
posal for about two hours. After
supper in the Great Hall, they will
troop into the Debates Room for
the entertainment, which is plan-
ned this year to consist of movies
a sing-song, a magician. Lastly'
as the boys pass through Che aoor,
each one receives a little gift,
usually some candy for a treat.
The girls from the Settlement
are not going to be neglected this
Christmas. They can't enter Hart
House, but Ihey are having their
party at the Women's Union the
same day as the boys' party, with
similar entertalmnent. Further
the UC Men's residences have got
ten together to give 60 new Ca-
nadian children from the Settle-
ment not only a supper, on Thurs-
day. Dec. 33, at the residences,
but also movies, and a Christmas

lampus Christians Start Plan
0 Keep Christ In Christmas
Christmas is a many-sided celebration. Some celebrate
in terms of Santa Glaus, Jingle Bells or Rudolph. Some
nsider it the celebration of goodwill and family life. Some
lebrate Christmas as the birthtime of Christ.
& group on the campus holds the'
ler conviction, and has done
Uietlung about it.
3urinf the Christmas season,
ere will be nativity scenes at
fnily and St. Mike's. These are
«nded to remind the public that
if'stmas is fundamentally a re-
ious celebration, said Carolyn
JatLon, IV St. Joseph's.
3ii the evening of Saturday. De-
nber 15 there wUl be a group of
■itlent caroUers roaming the
campus.
Disc jockeys will Insert spot
commercials emphasizing" the idea
of Christ in Christmas. Printers
have prepared free one thousand
posters bearing the legend, "Bring
Back Christ to, Christmas," and
five thousand hand bills to be dis-
tributed.
The presidents of the four Art
Colleges have been contacted* and
have given their approval.
The "Bring Back Christ to
Christmas" movement recom-
mends the sending of Christmas
cards that reflect the religious
spirit of Christmas; putting nativ-
ity cribs in homes: telling the
children the Christmas story.
The movement was began
this campus when a group of
women from Mount St. Vincent's
College came to Toronto to at-
tend the meeting of the Canadian
Federation of Cotholic College
Students in mid-November. Al-
though it began in the Cathohc
branch of the university, the move-
ment is nondenominaUonal within
the Christian faith.
Ghosts; -i^flfts^
By JIM ANDERSON
The salami on rye had been rather potent. In spite of it, sleep
linallv drifted in. Just in the midst of a very pleasant dream in which
I had" found a pretty cheerleader in my Christmas stocking, I awakened
to see a figure standing at the foot of my bed. Peeriiis; tnrough the
-^loom, I discovered that this apparition was the editor-in-chief of Th«
Varsity., (sensation) Pointing a trembling finger of accusation at me»
she hoarsely whispered, "Worm!"
Palling the covers tightly about my chin, I hesitantly asked her
the Cause of such a scornful epithet. In answer, she derided me for not
having" written a seasonal science column for the Christmas
"But there isn't any tinsel in scientific circles. ..."
"Nonsense," slie answered.
"I could pat in a terrific article on how microscopic fossil fora-
mlnifera are used in oil field correlation," I suggested brightly.
Not even deigning to answer, she uttered the following' threat:
"On the next three nights exactly at the stroke of midnight, you wlU
be visited by tliree apparitions in succession, the ghosts of Science
Notes Past, Future, and Present. ' Synchronize your watches."
With these words she closed her eyes tighter than she usually
does whfTi furious, and disappeared.
It seemed an interval Of but a moment before I heard the cuckoo
clock on the mantle downstairs regurgitat-e twelve times. The door
opened and a ghastly figure glided into my lowly bedroom.
Instead of clothing, this monster's body was covered by a heavy
growth of lichens except in the region of its prominent umbilicus.
Its eyes glowed like a firefly's rear view mii-ror, and from its mouth
drooped a big fat cigar. It was making hypnotic motions with its
hands and at the same time groaning, "Unclean. Unclean." Dragging
behind him on a long, chain fastened to his waist was a strange
assortment of objects including an Easter Island image, a tree from
the Forestry reserve, ft whale, a very dead chunk of venison, and
a pterosaur.
Sickly I sought the ^gnificance of this sordid sight.
"I." he chanted, "am the ghost of Science Notes Past — the has-
been ghost. Thanks to you, O guts and ganglia, I am doomed to travel
eternity burdened with this impossible collection of subjects from your
deservedly unread columns."
"There is a good variety. Isn't there?" I queried rather ineffectually.
Saying nothing but looking much, he backed out of my presenca
swatting at a persistent queen bee.
On the next night I was visited by a second spectre of blank
imtainted countenance who ii^b'oduced himself as the ghost of Science -
Notes Yet To Come.
"And with what," he asked bitterly, "am I to be innicted?"
I answered that we were planning to start the new year with a
series on the scientific background of an appreciation of the arts.
He looked doubtful.
"No leprosy?"
"No leprosy."
"No brewer's yeast?"
"No brewer's yeast."
He seemed considerably relieved and turned to leave the room.
"Oh by the way." he said pausing at the door, "Merry Christmaa"
On the third night I was vlsl^d by the ghost of Science Notes
Present. And this was it.

Messiah In Taranta Dame Really AA
In Mother Goos
Bveiy year at Ohrlsttoaa time. In every part of
Kte English -speaking world, Handel's monumental
o»torto, "The Messiah" given many perform-
•noes. The most elaborate ot several Toronto per-
Jbrmainces Is given to Maasey Kali Xfy the Toronto
Mendelssohn Choir, accompanied by the Toronto
Symphony Orchestra, and conducted by Sir Emeat
MacMillan.
This season's performances are on Tuesday and
Wednesday. Jan. 1st and Snd, 1952. at 8:00 pjn.
Soloists are Lois Marshall, soprano; Mary Palma-
teer, contralto; J. S. Vickers, teiwr, and James
Milligan, bass. Several of these soloists are new-
eomers to the Mendelssohn Choh's "Messiah", and
the performance ia therefore expected to differ
•omewhat from that of former years.
The CBC will broadcast the entire perfonnance
on the night of Jan. 2 on its Trans-Canada net-
work. For those who will not be in Toronto at that
time, the radio will help, but to those who will
be in town, the experts say. "Ifs not the same
Hhing." Even the OBC's technique is not always
•qual to the task of making a laige choir, orches-
tra, organ, piano, and soloists perform through
•ne loudspeaker. Ticl:et prices are $1.00 to t2.50.
Handel's '•Messiah" Is too wen known lo require
^tailed description. It is almost unique among
•ighteenth-cenhuy oratorios in using the words of
ttie Bible nearly verbatim throughout. Most ora-
torios of this period were set to words by some
hme-since -forgotten poet, who paraphrased the
Bit — or Another piece of hterature bi rhymed .
Wse. The added dignity of the words of the
King James Version has made "The Messiah" a
favorite with Englisli -speaking audiences, who have
learned to disregard Handel's occasional lapses in
the matter of English accentuation.
The annual Toronto performance of "The Mes-
siah" is also ahnost unique in its way. Late In
the nsO's (40 years after the writing of "The
Messiah"). Mozart was commissioned to re-write
the orchestral accompaniments in mode modern,
"galant" style. His edition of this oratorio was
the one used almost universally for many yeais.
Late nine teen th-centui-y and twentieth-centiu-y
musicologists recognized that Mozart's style was'
unsuited to the bold outlines of Handel's orginal
composition, and wrote their own- accompaniments
for tt. With various publishers each backing their
own revision, the original version was seldom
beard.
81r Ernest MacMiUao has over the y^s pre-
t>ared an edition of '"The Messiah" that conXoj-ms
to the spirit, though not always to the letter of the
original. Unlike other modern versions, this one
retains the continuo, or impromptu fU!ing-in of
harmonies on a keyboard instrument. For the
choruses this is performed on the organ, for the
•olo numbers on the piano, sometimes with assis-
tance from the organ. The extra orchestral parts
written by Mozart, Hamilton Harty, and others
have been eliminated.
So it happens that in Toronto we hear a per-
fonnance of "The Messiah" that is probably closer
to thje simplicity of the original than any other
to be heard to the world today.

Mass Fantasia
Tor two weeks, beginning De-
•ember 24th, the B<oyal Alexandre
Tlieatre is rfiowing a film of Dis-
aey at his eclectic best — Fantasia.
Dm purpoee of the movie, implicit,
y oot stated. Is to t&ke classical
works of music such as Tscbatkow-
iky'c Nutcrac^ Suite, Stravin-
rfkj's Rite of Spring and Schubert's
Ave Maria, and plctorlalize them In
hope of making them palatable
to untutored tastes. If so, the

and disturbing rhythms of the Rite
of Spring when heard unadulter-

movie.
Perhaps the most successful ol
the sequences was the cartoonbig
of Paul Dukas' Sorcerer's Appren-
tice, for this work was primarily
intended as narrative music; the
composer himself provides a de-
tailed outline of the amusing story
of an apprentice who uses the pow-
ers of his wizard master of which
he has no "knowledge and control
to make a broom perform. his lab-
ours. MoussorslQ^'s Night on Bald

^bath, was also very well done.

A Christmas Carol
A soft December snowfall is gently spreading
over the campus as this Christmas viewpoint from
the balcony is being written. You would almost
think that I'd hired some mov^e magicians to give
me atmosphere, since one of the pictures being
reviewed is A CHRISTMAS CAROL, the latest
in a line of movie versions of Dickens' sentimental
Christmas overture.
The first time that Scrooge was enacted for
me was in Junior high school days, when on a
high school stage a retired English actor whose
name 1 have long forgotten grave a monologue
of Scrooge's Christmas morning after the visits
of the spirits. The highlight was the scene from
the wihdow when the regenerated Scrooge asks
the passing boy to get the prize turkey from the
butcher's. Most of us in the audience were en-
tranced. We had just read A Christmas Carol for
the first time. We had hissed, shuddered, thrilled,
wept and laughted with Scroogg and Tiny Tim.
Since then I have seen two other film versions.
One was a British version which is very dulled in -
memory. The other was an MGM effort starring
Lionel Barn'more. And now has come the newest
version, starring Alastaii- Sim (HAPPIEST DAYS
OP YOUR LIFE, LAUGHTER IN PARADISE) as
Scrooge. It is sentimental, it is scary, it is out-
rageous, it is Dickens.
A CHRISTMAS CAJROL opens tomon'ow (Satur-
day) at the three Odeon theatres, the Etenforth,
Pairlawn, and Humber. It_shouid stick around tlU
Christmas, of course. If you want to get away Xrom
the artificial blaring of Wliite Christmas and to
dip into old-fashioned ChrLstmas, this is your
dish. Take along a young child if you can.
Alastair Sim is the main reason why this ver-
sion of a CHRISTMAS CAROL is so satisfying.
His Scrooge is a hammy Scrooge, but his ham-
miness always pleases. Barrymore used td" rip out
"Bah . . '. humbug!" as U it were an oath. Sim's
"Humbug!" is annoyed, irritated, and sometimes
defiant. It seems more Dickens than acting.
Brian- Desmond Hurst Is producer -director of
this film, and his care with Victorian back-
grounds and his mixture of honor and sentiment
are very much like David Lean's superior job
of translating Dickens in GEIEAT EXPECTA-
TIONS and OLIVER TWIST. Mervyn Johns is a
properly timid but fatherly Bob Cratchit; Hermione
Baddeley is an exceltenl Mrs. Cratchit. George Cole
(Who was in "The Kite" in QUARTET with Miss
Baddeley) is the younger Scrooge. Marley's ghost
(Michael Hordem) is a most satisfying Marley's
ghost. The spirits as well as the ghostly Marley
are treated as real if partly transparent beings,
' so that there is none of the vagueness that attend-
ed Olivier's Hamlet's ghost. Of course, Dickens'
ghosts and spirits have a lot to say and need
lo be coherent,
Kathleen Harrison is Mrs. Dilber, Scrooge's
housemaid, and she Is a happy choice. The se-
quence from the vision of the Christmas Yet-To-
Come in which Mrs. Dilber and the laundress and
the undertaker dispo.se of the dead Scrooge's be-
longings Is a fiightemng .study ol human scaven-
ging. Surprisingly, the familiar Christmas at the
Cratchits' is disposed of briefly, but this is not a
great jar unless you felt like lingering with Tiny
Tim and the goose. Happily Tiny Tim (Glyn Dear-
man) is not a precocious or sweet iittie movie
darling, but a pinched-faoed lad who acts like a
introspective child.
I can hardly wait to tajte my youngest brother
along to see A CHRISTMAS CAROL. Partly be-
cause he knows the Dickens well, but partly be-
cau.se I want again to share those moments of
horror and sadness and because I know that
Scrooge la going to be a happy man at the end
And, of coui-scj because soon it wUl be Cluistmas*

One of my Christmases wjis spent In Madras bi
south India. It was a fantastic Christmbs foj f
since there was on holly, no Santa Claus pafad^
nor advertising in the newspapers, and the tem-
perature hovered in the high 80s. The Indian cook,
ing staff prepared a cliicken dinner in flie mea
of the aimy billet where I passed the morning
And because it was a holiday for us, we were be-
decked by the bearers with paper garlands, and
we had beer, in the mess to go with the
chicken.
In the afternoon, I caught a. train bound uotUi
to Calcutta. My coachmates included some RAJ
~ types who agieed that It jwas a bad show to bi
spending Christmas this way and since they i
equipped with a small supply of stimulanti,
got slightly squiffed and wei*e hoarsely sini;in(

, stucients and teachers from all
" ■ of Austria will present a
^ of song and dance in
ilion Hall. Many students
niember the program pre-
I'teff by the First Goodwill Tour
1949, and again in May,
sen I
As on that occasion, the
Austriftns will perform a series
^[semi-dramatic skits, showing
olf the traditional costumes, songs,
jances and rituals of the moun-
lainous little central European
country.
Aiistiian peasants, like those
of many other countries, have de-
veloped folk-dances and songs' all
their own, and In recent years, ex-
perts in the field of folk-music
have collected much of this tra-
^tional art. It is therefore pos-
sible for & group such as this.
Goodwill Tour to present perfect-
Ijr authentic tunes and dances
from all over Austria, and to
make a musical show of them.
Peraliar to Austria and south
Germany is the "Slap Dance"
(Scliiihplattler) . It is performed
men only, dressed In leather
shorts. Additional musical accom-
paniment to the customary accord-
or guitar is provided by the
resounding slaps of the perform-
ers' hands on their own (and oth-
er dancers') leather-cov.ered thighs
ftDd by the clatter of their boots on
the floor. In the course of the
(tance, each dancer tries to trip,
poke, box or otherwise maul every
other dancer, but always In
fbvtlim. Several examples of
this type of dance will be Included
M the program.
Yodelling is not exclusively the
province of the Swiss— the Aus-
trians do it too. Some expert
yodellers, both male and female
will be with the group. A per-
former on the zither, and one on
the peasant harp will also be
there , in additioa to players of
more conventional instruments,
such as. the violin, clarinet, and ac-
cordion.
The four scenes of the presenta-
tion represent the four seasons in
various parts of the country. The
spring scene is entitled "Under
the Maypole", the summer scene,
"At the Harvest Festival." For
autumn, the scene is laid in Vien-
na, and in winter, a peasant wed-
ding is represented.
The Austrtfin students and
teachers make no attempt to pro-
duce a professional show. Folk
music is amateur music, and it
is out of the uninhibited folk
songs and dances that these per-
formers make up their show.
The arrangements lor the visit of
the Austrian students to the Toron-
to campus have now . been com-
pleted, aimounced Joan Presant.
Ill UO. today. She Is looklne after
the visit for the EAC.
EacJh of the vlalting students will
have one person as liis particular
host; this arrangement is similar
to that of the Carabin weekend.
The Toronto students will meet
the guests after they have attend-
ed mass at St. Patrick's Catliedral
on Sunday. A supper party will be
held on Sunday evening and from
there the visitors will accompany
their hosts home.
Monday afternoon the students
will split up into several groups
and cocktail parties will be tield.
In order that any other inter-
terested Varsity students may meet
the Austrians, a party will be held
after the performance on Tuesday
night. Then the visitors will con-
tinue on their way to Windsor,

pears as though the members of
the family have no common in-
terest in the girl but through the
clever questioning the Inspector
soon proves that each of them
contributed to the suicide death
in an important way. The unus-
ual manner in which the Inspector
interrogates the Birling family
and Gerald Croft occupies the
greater part of the three-act play.
However, in the final act the
trend of the action tal^es a sur-
prising turn, and illustrates clear-
ly the mastery of Priestley's pen.
Priestly not only manages to
keep the iaudience In suspense
throughout the entire action of the
play but also presents some ex-
traordinary fine character studies
in the persons of the Inspector and
Mr. Etirllng. George McCowan
portrays the difficult role of the
strange and mysterious Inspector
Goole. while Douglas Quirk plays

seven
other new men in their line-up,
including several Canadians. All
but three team members last year
were Canadians.
It is unfortunate that Toronto
fans cannot se these international
rivals in action, but it is not fi-
nancially, expedient to invite the
Wolverines to the Queen City. In
Ann Arbor the fans pay to see
the games , which covers the
Blues' travelling expenses.
Tlie two teams were very cau-
tious in the first half of the game
and Meds were sporting a 2-1 edge
when the ywent off for a rest. Play
opened up somewhat in the last
half and the score was five-all at
games end. UC had the lead fre-
quently but Gear always seemed
able to square matters. UC went
ahead In the extra periods but in
the last couple of minutes. Kilty
tied the count, settine the stage for
Sim's payoff marker. -
There was one goal early in the
first period, that by Gear who took
a pass from Cosens and went in to
score. Cosens was given a charging
penalty but UC got no farther than
a few near misses. Mostly the check
was close and fierce but there was
the odd rush. Thomson in particu-
lar went well, breaking up UC
plays with some very pretty checks.
In the second period, the players
seemed a little over-anxious and so
there were several dropped passes
and missed shots. UC espseially had
trouble getting untracked. While
Gear and Kopsky were off for
roughing, Al Eagleson netted
Y'oung's rebound after Dutch had
made a rush from his own end.
This seemed to set fire to the UC
offensive and they began to roll.
The Meds defence was steady and
Perkin was spectacular making
stop after stop, some at point-
blank range. Towards the end of
the frame. Gear intercepted a UC
pass and went in to give the Meds-
men the lead.
Cosens went off for charging and
Young tied the score right away
with an accurate shot at a sharp
angle. Kopsky scored twice during
the penalty time to give Uc a two-
goal lead which Gear cut in half
Tom Hatashita (V)
Don Bowyer (NY) by a 9-2 score.
Hatashita scored the first two
points on a takedown in the first,
added one more on an escape,
then Bowyer scored two on a
takedown and Hatashita ended the
second period by adding two more
on a rehearsal. Another reversal
Id the third and two points on
lime advantage accounted for the
rest of Hatashita's points.

The fourth period saw the piay.
ers very careful and as a result,
action was sloppy at times. Finding
no one to pass to. Gear shot and
scored to tie the count at 4-4. ^
face-off followed a roughing epi,
sode in front of the Meds nets and
Kopsky finished his hat trick right
from the draw. However Jack Gear
forced overtime, taking the bail
from his goalie and going tlis
length of the court to score.
UC got an early lead in the over-
-time on Young's marker. Meds
shone defensively at this stage and
Kilty missed a perfect set up. In
the second OT frame, Meds stmcic
quickly to put the game on ice.
Kilty grabbed a loose ball and
whipped it past Smela. Then came
the clincher by Sims. Sims had the
ball for some time and finally was
forced to shoot and his shot caught
Smela on the wrong side of the
goal. Meds were able to. stave off
the last-minute tries of the Red-
men even though Cosens drew a
penalty. Their last chance was
gone when Watson drew a penalty
and left them short-handed for the
final minute.
It was a great victory for the doc-
tors. They never gave up though
they were behind often enough.
Jack Gear equalled his displays of
the other games of the series with
his five goals, as well as^being a
tower of strength defensively. Per-
kins was great In goal and KiltT
was threatening throughout the
game. For UC, it was Dutch Young
again leading his team and Steve
Kopskywith his three goals. There
was no disgrace In dropping a ser-

The Varsity Orphuns ploughed
their way to a 51-30 victory and
their third straight win in the
City Senior Basketball League in
Hart House last night against a
West End Y squad ,that did every-
thing -but throw cross-body blocks
to prevent it.
■ Relying on an effective zone de-
fence to keep their opponents In
check, the Orphuns racked up a 13-
0 lead in the first quarter before
the squad from the West End found
the range. Stulac, Russell and
Madden spearheaded the Orphun
attack and turned in outstanding
defensive games as an afterthought.
The Orphuns were weakest in
the foul-shootmg department, com-
pleting only 14 foul shots m 31
tries. Adopting a fast-breaking

The Varsity Junior Water Polo ,
squad absorbed a 15-14 defeat at
the hands of the Central Y "A"
squad last niglit In the Hart House
pool that eliminated them from the
league with a record of two wins
and two losses. The other defeat
came at the hands of t4ie same op-
jionents earlier In the season.
The contest was the closest, hard-
est one of the season with Varsity
playing a svrijmming game against
the long passing attack of VLie Cen-
tral Y team. As It burned out, the
Blues ran out of steam before their
opponents. With the count at 8-7
at the halfway marie. Varsity held
a slim one-goal lead that was to
vanlsb before the final wtUstle.
Handicapped by the absence of
two regular defensemen. Hart Rob-
ins, the Blue goalie, was spectacular
in defeat, stopping some almost im
possible shots by the hard-drivlne
pivot man on the Central team who
was high scorer for the winners,
style "of play, the Orphuns notched
the majority of their counters via
the breakaway trail. Jim Russell's
passing was one of the chief threats
that the West Enders had to con-
tend with and be tallied 16 points
to make himself high scorer for
the contest. Al Brvtwn turned In a
noble job for the Orphuns in the
checking department.
The score stood at 18-8 as play
rolled Into the second quarter with
the Orphuns sporting a record of
7 foul shots missed out of 9 tries.
The West Enders began to roughen
things up a little and before the
half Doug Kettle of the Orphuns
had to leave the flour with a bleed-
ing nose. But a fast-breaking at-
tack kept their opponents off bal-
ance and the Orphuns rolled up a
29-13 margin at the half way mark.
The Orphuns continued to press
Ifl the third stanza, and with their
zone defence keepmg the West End-
ers at long range they outscored
their opponents two to one for the
quarter. Most of the Y scormg was
done on long set shots, and the
score at the three-quarter mark
was 45-20.
The Orphum settled back to en-
joy thehr lead In the final stanza
and the West Enders took control
of things for a while, hooping 10
points to 6 for their opponents in
this 15 minutes. The win gave the
Orphuns a record oi three wins and
no lasses in the league competition,
puttmg them In second spot behind

Basketball Blues Bill Huycke and Bud Natanson
WUl Varsity's hot combination top the Intercollegiate?
By MAL. CRAWFORD
Buffalo, Dec. 12 (Staff) — Buffalo University laced the
■University of Toronto Blues 81-54 in an exhibition basketball
game Wednesday night at the Buffalo gym, taking the lead
at the end of the first quarter and increasing it by six or
seven points each period, after being held even by the
Toronto outfit for the first seven or eight minutes.
The Buflalo Bulls, who are rated
one or the best teams in the East,
put on a brilliant display ol pass-
ing, ball-handling, and shooting,
once tliey got themselves un-
wound. Several foul shots by
Bud Natanson and some sensa-
tional shooting by Bill Huycke
kept the Toronto end of the score
up for a while and put the Blues
ahead 12-11. Huycke, who scor-
ed half of Toronto's first 12
points, was easily the best man
on the floor for Varsity, sinking
17 points, many on sensational
Ehots both from close in and on
sets. He scored his tenth straight
foul shot Wednesday night, but
broke the string on his next at-
tempt,
Buffalo, who played most of the
game without their star freshman
forward Oim Home, a spring-leg-
ged 18-year-old Negro who has
scored 16 points a game to date
took most of the first period to
get clicking, but rattled in six
points in the last minute of the
period, and doubled the score to
32-16 in the first half of the sec-
ond quarter. Their fast-break
started to get past the Toronto de-
fence, with Jim Rooney and Hal
Kuhn whipping the ball around
™ jugglers, and Charlie Johnt
'epl the net shaking with long set
Ehoi^, The Bulls by now had learn-
M to raise the trajectory of their
wools when shooting over Natan-
son, who had knocked down about
' dozen shots
Varsity got hot again before the
joa of the half, brought the score
irom 32-16 to 35-25, also mostly
™scke's shooting.

The Blues used a zone, in spite
of the large floor, in order to stop
the Buffaloes' fast break. They
have little height— average less
than 6'— but would be deadly
against a man-for-man defence be-
cause of their speed.
The Blues had one of their bet^

but this was still the department
which Buffalo outshone them,
They were hot in foul shots, get-

We like the trim tailored styles in fine leather,
with frames that open up wide, so you can get
right down to the bottom easily. There's lots of
room in them for gloves — cigarettes, or what
have you. The "cord6" bags are in new style?

San
Macdonald
V. By PEARL PARNES
The Rhodes Trustees offer for award in the
Province of Ontario two out of ten of the Rhodes
scholar^ips for Canadians, each of the basic value
of £400 per year but tempoiarity increased to £500.
In the section of bis will in which he defined
the general type of scholar he desired, Mr. Rhodes
mentioned four groups of qualities. He stressed
particularly literary and scholastic attainments,
and qualities of manhood, truth, courage, devotion
to duty, sympathy, kindliness, unselfishness and
fellowship. Leadership qualities and participation
in sports are important in a genera! round-up of
qualities, and some definite quality of distinction,
whether in intellect, character or personality, is
the most important requirement.
These, then, are the standards Ronald Lamp-
man Watts, TV Trinity, and Hugh Ian Macdonald,
IV U.C., had to meet. They are this year's win-
ners of the Rhodes Scholarships and are entitled
to two years studies at Oxfoi-d, with a third op-
tional year at any university of their choice.
Bon was born in Japan, and learned Japane*»
before he was taught English. His father, a Church
of England missionary, headed the only English-
speaking family in a t^wn of over 100,000. In 1940,
when Ron was 11. the Japanese sent aU the
missionaries out of the country, and the Watts
came to Canada.
Ron srad-oated from Trinity College School in
Port Hope with a scholarship in English and
History, and entered Trinity College at the Uni-
versity of Toronto in Social and Philosophical
Studies. In his second year, he transferred to
Philosophy (English or Histoi?), taking history as
his option. He intends to study history at Oxford.
For the past two summers, he has worked for
Frontier College, an organization which sends
university students to work and teach in the
bush country. For ten hours each day, he worked
as a labourer with the men, and taught basic
Engilish in the evenings.
"IVIany of the men were new immigrants who
knew very little English, and some of the Cana-
dian-born men had never been to school. The
young ones especially wanted to make the most
of their opportunity. The older ones had been
tiiere a long time, had gotten along all right
until now, and didn't care to change-"
He spent a couple of weeJts getting to know the
men and winning their confidence before he began
to teach. "They had a very high regard for edu-
cation, the Europeans particularly," he said. They
talked about everything, '"even a mild form of
phOoeophy." ranging from God to drink.
"They are a rough, cnjde bunch, but diarriotmj
underneath. They don't have the jiolished man.
ners of city society, but would stand firm beside
their friends."
In univeirsity Ron lias been president of his
fraternity, vice-president of the Tiinity DraiuaEic
Society, player-managei- of the Tiiuity College
basketball team, and member of the Trinity Lit
Government Council and the Trinity Review.
Ian Macdonald is in Commerce and Finance, aixt
Intends to study philosophy, politics and economics
at Oxford. He will concentrate particularly oa
economics, and may continue in academic life.
Otherwise he will enter law, with perhaps politics
as an ultimate goal.
lan's summers have been spent in explorative
work, in the sense of trying to find out what he'd
like to do. He has worked in the statistical and
actuarial departments of an Insurance company,
and has been a travelling auditor with a firm
of chartered accountants.
"It was a trial and error means to try to get
some insight int» different branches of work. I'm
not inclined to any of them, but the experience
helped me to eliminate them as possibilities." His
sports life has been active, and he has received
athletic letters from UC and the University. At
present he is president of the Commerce Club, and
spends a great deal of time in the office, ironing
out problems in the club's activities. These include
nmning a book exchange in the fall, publishing a
Commerce Jounial, and holding regular meetings
with eminent business and government men as
speakers.
The applicants tor the Rhodes Scholarships were
interviewed by a board of seven, all of whom have
been former recipients of the award.
"It was like being a witness in a court," recalls
Ian. "You have little opportunity to recover from
one question before they fire another at you,"
They quizzed him on his opinion in the thorny
question of- professional -amateur relations in
hockey, and on his views about wages being tied
to the cost of living,
"I don't approve of the policy," said Ian. "It
presupposes that a person be Lied to a fLxed stan-
dard of living. His buying power is constant, and
there is no scope for incentive to improve. I sub-
scribe to the incentive principle." He described
himself as a freethinker, in politics, subscribing W
neither radical nor reactionary views. "My mam
concern is to see social justice prevail for all
groups." His pet peeve is having to meet deadlines
and rigid schedules. "I have a reputation as »
chronic offender in lateness!"

Turner, IV UC. and Kenneth Jar-
vis, also rv UC. were the principal
debaters for the resolution. M. Mo-
gan, St. Michael's, and Ian Mon-
tagnes. Ill UC and News editor of
The Varsity led the negative side.
AQen stated that he was aware
that "the Press has many things
to answer for." The Press has fall-
en short of its aim to be "an instru-
ment for human enlightenment."
he added.
"The number one bogey is the
mass man," he indicated, because
he supports the bad publications
as much or more than the good
publicatiom. Although "the Press
can improve with the help of in-
telligent readers." said Allen, "the
chief failures lie within the Press. "
"It has a lack of faith in its read-
ers and a lack of faith in Itself,"
he added.
Vern Turner accused the Press
of being "a handmaiden of rich
advertisers". "The newspapers in
the community are only as good as
the people who read them," he said,
and as such it has become a monu-
ment to human folly "and will soon
be its own tomb."
M. Mogan, first speaker for tJie
negative, descrit>ed the Press as
multilateral. "It doesn't intend to
mould character", he said. The
Press is necessary to give "an im-
minent sense of the present, " he
added, and thus is indispensable.
Kenneth Jarvis stated that the
Press was not a mirror of normal
man. He said that editors must pick
the events which iney believe justi-
fy a place in the news, but that
in doing so they choose the sensa-
tional rather than the normal.
Ian Montagnes accused the af-
firmative speakers of using the
poorest examples of the Press as
beUig typical of all. "The Press does
its best to give good coverage," he
concluded, "and it Is the respon-
sibihty of the people to take into
account tlie limitations of the
Press."
Syd Wax, IV Meds, in presenting
the motion said that he did not
know much about the "Civil Lib-
erties group " but that he imagined
that it was a bona fide organiza-
tion since Provost Seeley was the
president. Other prominent men as-
sociated with the organization, ac-
cording to executive secretary Irv-
ing Himel. are B. K. Sandv/ell.
David Croll, Senator Arthur Roe-
buck. E. B. Joliitfe. Chasles Mil-
lard, Rabbi Feinberg and Profes-
sor Malcolm Wallace.
The motion was passed without a
vote being taken at each faculty
and college after Charles Hanley,
III UC, told the council that any
support would have to be given
within a few days. Both Paul For-
estall, rv St. Mike's, and Carolyn
Gratton. IV St. Mike's, told the
Council that because of the feel-
ing about this subject amongst the
students whom they represented
they felt they should abstain.
The statement which tlie Associ-
ation for Civil Liberties is sending
to the Parliamentary Radio Com-
mittee says: "We understand that
as a result of some recent broad-
casts over the CBC given by the
people prominent in the fields of
science, psj'chiatry. and philosophy,
demands are being made on the
government, members of parlia-
ment, and the parliamentary radio
committee to restrict the CBC from
broadcasting discussions on sub-
jects of scientific, psychiatric and
philosophical nature. Without ne-
cessarily agreeing or disagreeing
with the speaker's views on these
programs, we wish to express our
grave concern about any attempt
to impose such a form of censor-
ship of ideas on radio broadcasting

Tree in the Great Hall of Hart

as the University College Music

Kotcheff. President of the Music

it has been told by the University

Last year a Co-ordinating Com-

see if compromise could be reacii-

to investigate the possibility of
amalgamating smaller clubs so,
that by joining forces they could

"There has been an ovex-em-
phasis of films with a message."
stated Gordon Sparling. Director
and producer of the Canadian
Cameo series of theatrical shorts,
last Tuesday night at the Botany
Building. This talk was one of a
series on, "The Film and Society."
"The general standard of films
is good" Mr. Sparling added, "but
the industry is still in its gawky
adolescent stage. Let us al-
ways remember that although its
wet nurse has been documentary
(films), its mother and its fam-
ily are showbusiness." He went
on to say that. "A nation's culture
is gauged by its movies, as it Is
by its music and its painting, its
books and its newspapers."
Sparling felt that the National
Film Board was doing "a wonder-
ful job", but that it should use
some of its publicity to help the
smaller producers. He also felt
that the NFB should "farm out
some of its work to specialists. The
film industry in Canada is too
small to have differences."
A new technique being used by
Mr. Sparling is "the rhapsodic tech-
nique." where there is "a less ob-
vious progression of ideas. Seem-
ingly unrelated bits of action are
used." but these are all brought
together by some "bridgiog as-
sociation."

It was also suggested that the
Co-ordinating Committee Chair-
man. Chuck Hanley. Ill UC. get
together with the heads of var-
ious clubs in financial difficulty to
see If co-operation between them
might help the situation and re-
duce the confusing number of
extra-curricular activities on the
campus.
SAC President Syd Wax said
that he regretted the fact that
Blue and Wliite Society event
had conflicted with the UC event,
particularly because an earlier
Blue and White event had conflict-
ed with the UC Follies. It made
UC look like the goat, he said, but
actually both conflicts were unin-
tentional.
The co-ordinating committee
was described bv David Rose,
president of the UC Literary and
Athletic Society, as "a front for the
SAC so that they may foist their
own activities on the student
body over and above the beads of
the individual colleges and fac-
ulties." He said that it was ap-
parent to anyone who has follow-
ed SAC activities this year that
the SAC has slated a wish to cut
down on extra-curricular activi-
ties, and has not cut down but
has expanded its extra-curric-
ular program.

Professor R. '. Hosie, professor of
Forestry at the F&culty of Forestry,
University of Toronto, will speak on
"Forest Regeneration in Ontario"
before the Royal Canadian Institute
on Saturday, December 15 at 8:15
pjn. in Convocation Hall. Prof.
Hosie is an authority on silvicultural
studies at the University.
He will give a descriptive ac-
count of the natural development
of the pulpwood forest in Ontario
with examples of some of the fac-
tors concerned in the regeneration,
and will make brief reference to
the regeneration surveys carried
out by the Forestry branch of Can-
ada, the Department of Lands aud
Forests and the pulp and paper
companies in the province.
Since he came to the unive!;l(y in
1924 he has done a great deal of re-
search during the summer months
on forest vegetation, pine blister .-ind
ecological studies, and has publish-
ed a great many papers and reports
on his results.
Professor Hosie will also discuss
the general situation with regard to
forest regeneration as revealed
through federal surveys and check-
ed by personal observatioris in the
cut-over forest areas. The lecture
will be illustrated with slides in

A new tack in Toroatonensis
sales will be made this year, as
salesmen will be working on com-
mission in each faculty and col-
lege, the Students' Administrative
Council decided at its meeting
Wednesday night.
Commission will be 15% on all
copies sold over last year's total
of 2.450 copies. In this way. an
attempt is being made to increase
sales without making the cost any
larger to the Council. No com-
missions will be paid until last
year's sales have been equalled,
and the revenue from the books
sold on commission will cover this
outlay.

"Peace on earth and goodwill towards men" supposedly
•xpiesses the idea of Christmas. But these are distant words
with little meaning for most people. They are as far from
reality as we are from the Communists.
Christmas is a family affair, the gathering of the clan,
the annual reunion and a joyous celebration. But it is around
the children th^ the gaiety and good spirits centre. They are
the fuel of the Christmas fire, and without them the fire
gizzles and may even die.
For children, the world is transformed at Christmas-
time. The stores are no longer filled with bad-tempered and
harried shoppers. Rather they are crowded with Christmas
•hoppers who are of a very special nature — full of good
spirits and mirth. Children believe in the Christmas spirit,
in Santa Claus and the wealth of festivities and colour that
goes with it. And consequently, they see the Christmas
world everywhere. j
Adults, and this includes most university students, call
this naivete. We have reached a maturity whose main virtue
seems to consist in seeing the world as it really is. By care-
ful observation, we observe that Christmas shoppers are
just as rushed, and even more so, than any other variety.
Again, we question the cheap commercialism of the records
playing outside the radio shops, and the false enticements
ef the Christmas displays.
Christmas is humbug, we sadly admit. But except for
Brocl< Chisholm, few have wanted to impress this fact on
their children. Perhaps this is because most adults want to
enjoy Christmas. And this they can do vicariously through
their children.
As children we all assumed that Christmas was a very
special occasion, and Santa Claus was an extraordinary per-
son. We experienced the whole feeling of Christmas and it
was quite as real to us as the porridge which we have to
. eat every morning for breakfast. Only much more pleasant.
We believed in the Christmas spirit, because we could feel
it in ourselves. And because it was within ourselves, it was
everywhere else as well.
Maybe Christmas should be celebrated on a farm. Here,
perhaps, some of the reckless naivete still remains. It takes
a stiff country parlour to be so completely transformed by a
Christmas tree, with its tinsel decorations and candles. And
the pleasure of opening parcels and scattering the wrappings
cannot be equalled in less formal surroundings. Beyond this,
there I's also the delightful necessity of feeding animals their
Christmas dinners. As if horses knew why they were getting
extra oats! But does it matter?
Not Bead Yet?
By WILLIAM GLENESK
Once upon a time lived on old man. Not
as old as Methuselah, but the lines of time
had crinkled his cheeks, and the soft hair
of his rustic beard was white. Like King
Lear striding the wind he trod the wind-
ing Roman road up to the wilderness out-
side the city. The ground crackled under
the grind of his heavy feet, while the air
turned brown and dim as the dusk cast
her cloak of sh'adows as far as eye could
see.
A grizzled bough like a dymg hand
reached out from the brush, and the
crinkles tightened in the old man's cheek
• as he drew back startled. It was only the
gathering storm. The silver twinkle in his
almost hidden eye glistened as he looked
and saw the house. Clutched in an arc of
trees was a nest-like cottage, one lone
light at the only window, burning dimly.
Behind the flame two sunken eyes stared
into the night. In the flicker of light
around the flame were gathered three
other pairs of eyes. The man and his
daughters seemed locked to the benches
as the hoary bearded one stepped to the
door to knock.
And so the legend spins forth the tale
of the distraught father back in the third
. century Whose poverty held marriage out
of reach of his three daughters. Without a
dowery the three were on the doorstep of
the house of shame. But in the midst of
need doweries appeared on the little
oaken table surreptitiously bestowed by
some mysterious hand.
No knock had touched the door. No one
had come in. Yet here were pouches of
gold to save the day. The candle quickened
its f lanre as two aging feet pres.sed up the
road and the soft white bea,rd became
crisp in the hard wind as the old man
ambled into the dark. .
Most of you who read these words do
not believe in legend. Most of you are from
Mi.ssouri when it comes to talking about
myth. Yet for just a whit of a minute
think back to when you were knee-high,
when you believed in everything; goblins,
fairies, elves, the whole wide world were
yours. When we walked the town in ai,
pants and wide-open eyes fantasy

Christmas, as we said before, is a family affair. For
many students this means going home — something which ^Tl*^ ^ at'c
is very important when "home" is far beyond the end of the ■ ■ ■ ^

occasion. For many others, it may be more of a chance.
But to everyone, we wish a very merry Christmas. And
to us, that means enjoying the whole show, from tinsel
decorations to the turkey dinner. If such is possible.
Comment • • •
... In its action to keep the CBC free from outside inter-
ference (a parliamentary ruling) the Association for Civil
Liberties has sent a letter to both the Prime Minister and
the Minister of National Revenue voicing opposition to cen-
sorship of scientific and philosophical programs.
At the last Students' Administrative Council meeting, a
motion was passed endorsing that action thus adding the
University of Toronto students' support.
. . . These are very worthy steps. Perhaps too it would do
us no harm to read the context of Hoyle, Russell, Chisholm,
and other speakers in question. . . . We are always happy
when we find letters-to-the-editor on our doorstep. And
usually we are able to publish them. Unfortunately we
sometimes meet the technical difficulty of not having enough
space in which to print them. We are presented with this
problem today, even though we have expanded to twelve
pages because we have endeavoured to present as much
material as we can to cover the gap between this and the
next news issue in January. We have also attempted to
present a Christmas issue which will cover holiday enter-
tainment and other student activities, as well as the regular
news, so please accept our apologies for the condensation.

l¥hat's The Big Idea
This issue of The Varsity has about as ambP
tious a theme as can be devised — education, par-
ticularly in relation to the university. Now, devot-
ing eight pa^ to the ideas of education is racher
like seeing the world in a week. Inevitably, much
remains unsaid and unseen.
The main purpose of such an issue, however. Is
not to ask all the questions and provide all the
answers, Its ^alue will be determined by the
amount of interest and thought aroused. are
not setting absolute standards. Nor are we prob-
ably giving a fair presentation of all viewpoints.
And we are more than willing to present the uef-
lected facts in future issues.
Like everything else in the twentieth century,
the concepts of education have undergone some
radical changes. And the universities, in their more
lumbering, conservative way. are being transformed
to fit the brave new world.
The modem emphasis in aducation would seem
to forsake ideas, for technique, education in favour
of training, and this has been carried even bo the
doorsteps of the universities. No longer do the
universities offer the undergiaduate an opportu-
nity to be educated, it has been pointed out. rather
they tailor him for a caieer. The Spanisli philo-
.sopher. Oitega y Gasset, suggests that the special-
ism being fostered today will produce no more
than a race of barbarians.
But why the changes? Perhaps, the universities,
after surviving the scorn and envy of a generation
bred on Horatio Alger, have fallen prey to their
successors. Bright, successful pi-oducts of the rags
to riches school, they seem to want to utilize the
universities, to make them serve a •■practical pur-
pose".
But what is a "practical purpose?" Is an idea
useful? Is a book practical? Surely ideas are the
fuel for the machines; without them we would
ultimately wear the machines out and have noth-
ing to replace them with. The universities should,
perhaps, foster the fuel and the institutes of tech-
nolog^y train men to run the machines.
In the midst of all the technicism, the universit?
student can still get himself an education. Maybe
it is more of a challenge today, 'lut it is still a
possibility. While there are libraries and a few
individuals, the student may still escape the bright
golden claws of the society in which he has been
bred.
"Certainly it is no part of the duty of »
university to inculcate any particular philosophy
of life. But It is its duty to assist its students to
form their own philosophies of life so that tfaer
may not go out into the world maimed and

the University".
'he Issue: Past And Present
Piity years ago it was not difficult for anyone
peering the University to have a fairly clear con-
-Tiuon of what their purpose was. There had been
'"'le change in the ancient established University
tradition that it was a place of higher learning for
tilt! few where one either rounded one's education
ill order to take an intelligent place in .'jociety or
r^nharked upon the necessary preliminaries ot
gaining for the professions of the Church, the Law,
Medicine, etc. Universities were small and com-
mned with liberal teaching an atmosphere ot
learning where one cultivated the mind by dis-
cussion and debate, interchange of opinion and a
Seneral sharpening of one's wits against those of
M'e mteUectual giants.
The twentieth century has seen a rapid growth
t another concept of education which is inherent
w ihe democratic traditions. To begin with, the
enl"^ of the professions has been considerably
g^'arged. Engineering, Dentistry, Forestry, the
"'^1 Sciences and a score of otlier fields of study
■ become profe-ssional fields. Furthemiore, the
i^ere of leadership in society has been extended.

as training grounds for leadership. The community
demands not only human beings equipped with,
specialized knowledge but also ideas, processes and
inventions to assist in raising the standard of
living. The inevitable trend to regard the univer-
sities a-s the handmaids of industry is one to be
guarded against and one which the scientists would
be the first to repudiate.
All this amounts to a new conception of higher
education and the role of .the universities. They
are now expected to perform tluee main functions:
(1) to raise the general level of education in
the community,
(21 to train experts in a wide professional field.
(3) to provide leadership in the community.
The old university syste»n, with its small nmnbers.
Its development of critical powers, its emphasis on
balanced judgment and perspective and its stress
on original thinking, was admirably equipped to
discharge this third function. The new system of
large, well-equipped universities in larf-e centres ot

Is designed to discharge the first two. The problem

of oui age is whether the same university cau
adequately discharge all three functions.
In particular, does the availability of university
ediication for large numbers, which i.s demanded by
the first function, destroy that intimacy of the
scholarly community which is necessary for the
thh-d function? Would the first function be bet-
ter discharged by a reorganization of the school
system and a fuller development of programmes of
adult education? Would the second function more
profierly belong to technical institutes -separate
from universities? In other words, have universities,
to put it vulgarly, bitten off more than they can
chew? No one can yet give the answers to these
questions. Undoubtedly if the functions were
divided there would be consiaerable loss which
might outweigh the gains Pos.sibly the University
of Toronto with its federated system, its combina-
tion of Colleges. Facultle.s and Schools within a
total community of learning, ha.s the key to the
solution of the problem. If it cannot be solved
along these lines, though not necessarily under the
present structure, it cannot be .solved at all.
Ultimately th^ problem Ls one for the student.
What does he want to get from the university, and
LS he able to get it? Quite clearly, at present many
are floundering amid a complexity of conception-s
of university life and are getting less than they
expect, even though they do not know exactly what
thev expect. Wliose fault Ls this? If it is Inherent
in the university striicture. that structure must be
changed. But it may lie in the students themselves
who regard university education as a magic formiUa
to transform them from school-boys and girls into
mature men and women. A clearer picture of what
they want to get would help thetu to get it. A job
of interpretation needs to be done, partly by the
universities themselves, partly by those who advise
students at the high school level. The community
Itself also needs to know more clearly what it can
legitimately expect from the universities. Dis-
cussion, clarification of Ideas, groups of people
drawn together from various sections of the com-
munity to think through these Issues will do much
to pilot us through this age of tran^iition to ft
university svstem that Is adapted to but not dic-
tated by the particular problems and needs of »
new age. For a university is never the product of
its age. It must stand aside from it in some
measure at least so that it can from the vantage
point of perspective lead the thought, the culture,
the social and economic structure oi each «i(A
every, age.

Why Are You Here ?
A LIBERAL EDUCATIO
Education for the sake of education Is an obsolete idea.
It is no reason at aU to come to university just
for the sake of getting educated. No one with this Id^
ever gets a thing out ol university, for he haa no
realiijatlon of what education is and cares less. It's j"st a
good place to waste some time with the rest of nis
friends.
SimUarly anyone who comes to college for the pur-
pose of getting sufficient training to make a lot of
money or become a top executive fast is defeating
the meaning and purpose of a university.
Yet these are the attitudes that prevail.
Both of tbem arc bat a reflection of the essentially
superficial, standardized and practical character of oi^
society. It comes out in a person, who is trying to break
away from the materialism of his middle class environ-
ment, yet shamefacedly admits, making aU kmds of
excuses, that he is majoring in philosophy or modern
history, for example.
What kind of living are you going to make from
that? Such Is the Invariable question that follows!
What's the matter with our attitude and what exactly
Should the imiversity be? For most people the idea of
•That our universities have errave shortcomings
for the inteliectual life of this nation is by now a
commonplace. Tlie chief source of their inadequacy
is probably the curse of departmentalization.
Among stuilenls, as well as among teachers, there
has been a tendency to regard courses as some-
thing which exist in nature, instead of artificial
simplifications for the mastery of what are com-
plicated organisms, whether of nature or reason or
society,"— Felix Frankfurter in an introduction to
"The Aims of Education" by Alfred North White-
head.
Bearching for the iriivn and beauty, which will make
you free, is little more than laughable. It means nothing.
But it no more than shows that our whole attitude
to a university education is badly misshapen.
At one time a anall minority were introduced to
culture of the ages for the purposes of leadership either
in church or state or other profession. Today our
democratic attitude is education for the masses.
But it is more than that. It is getting enough knowl-
edge to make a living and to hell with culture.
This is not to say that the university should be an
ivory tower where a few students come to absorb culture
for its own sake. Even Cardinal Newman, in writing on
the concept of a university education, says that the
university should be a place to train people to fill their
respective roles of life more adequately, and to make
them more intelligent, capable and active members of
eocicty,'
Though this may be a general ideal we have, it is
the last thing in the world that the universities are
doing. There is nothing more useless, nor such a waste
of effort and talent, as to have an ideal, but no means
of achieving that ideal for the mass of people we want
to educate.
Certainly we cannot say that our educational system,
on whatever level, is doing the job it should. That is,
it is not preparing our minds to comprehend the forces
at work in our civilization, and to take some active
part in the future of this civilization. But that is ab-
solutely essential for a democratic society.
What is the matter and what can be done?
Think for a minute of what we are up against! First
there is a preliminary educational system that does
absolutely nothing to stimulate the mind. We learn
facts and how to memorize them. But we have learned
nothing of ideas, and have accepted the opinions of one
individual as law on the subjelt.
Consequently we learn, in effect, nothing, because our
minds have not been led along the paths of renection,
to pick up threads of the culture of our ci\'lli2ation and
piece them together in our own minds.
In other words, we do not learn to think and search."
Our minds are, in effect, dead. Tliere is no individual
effort made fiu'ther than the immediate task of passing
exams.
So what happens? We turn the university into «
machine, just like high school.
And what else?
BcTucation for a free society, that is liberal education,
as it is ultimately conceived, consists primarSy in grasp-
ing the fundamental concepts of our civilization's culture.
iEducation, liberal in its true and only sense, is a com-
prehension of the forces at work in our world and how
they came to be.
By understanding this development of ideas and
attitudes, we can come to grips with our own world
and use that laaowled^ie to make a rational approach to
problems before us. That is Arnold's concept of education
as the search for the truth and beauty.
In other words, by reading-, thinking, searching, and
intercommunication, we are able to co-ordinate ideas into
a coherent and unprejudiced philosophy. It is a synthesis
of ideas built up from efforts to pick out the best
from all thought.
Most important, the knowledge thus attained makes
us amenable to various other points of view and to see
how they fit into a comprehensive pattern.
Again this Is whst liberal education, or the search
for the truth, aims at.
This is what the imiversities must do. But they can
only provide the material for this seajtih
directions. They cannot do the tlilnking i""" <*i=l|

The Question Is • • •
r What we mean by liberal education mnst clearly be something
that liberates dnd The question Is bow does it liberate? Its liberality
cannot surely exist in handing out class privileges because that is not
liberality at all. The liberating force in a science is the truth of that
science. The thing that makes the study of literature liberal is the
beauty of that literature. And it is from entering into the authority of
that truth and beauty that the liberation comes. There is no other way
to attain it.
I I would go even further and say that apart from the church
there is no other form of liberty of which society is capable. I should
say that liberty in society is exclusively the setting up of the church and
the university in the middle of that society, that as far as the uni-
versity is concerned, disinterested pursuit of the arts and sciences, for
their own sake, is the draft that draws the fire of freedom.
t We ordinarily divide life into work and distraction. And we think
that It is in distraction that we can do as we like.
1 I think that whenever two people get together to discuss the
arts or the sciences disinterestedly, the university is theirs, and
that vast open forum of free discussion in society which is the only
freedom society has, constitutes the university in the larger sense. —

Tlipse vigilantes have doubtless-
been moved to express such a

of life. What they are do-
lltreatening one of our
iidamental doctrines — intellec-
fieedom.
Intellectual freedom is the free-
im of ihe individual to thing for
mcU and to arrive at the truth.
it. by means of his own
Ind and conscience. Our coun-
constitution implies that
e is to be no interference .by
person or institution with a
I's Ihoughts. The opinions of
majority are not to be forced
'0 the minority, even if the ma-
sincerely believe that their
nions are truth. Intellectual
ednm is not the freedom tn
think right thoughts, but to think
any thoughts.
If this freedom Is basic in a
democracy, it is. if possible', of
greater importance in a university.
Our society looks to the university
for leadership. Some of this lead-
ership comes directly from the
school itself when its associates
make an important scientific dis-
covery, produce a fresh economic
theory, or state a new philosophy.
Most of it is indirect and is to be
found among the relatively few
graduates who emerge with a
breadth of vision which is so essen-
tial in good leadership. It is neces-
sary that the members of univer-
sity be given complete intellectu-
al freedom if they are to be the
visionaries which provide the best
leadership.
Once those who are convinced of
their own righteousness are allow-
ed to silence those who are not in
agreement, a precedent has been
set which is a potential threat to
all minorities. History has not al-
ways proved minorities to be cor-
rect, but their influence has often
produced healthy compromise and
progressive ideas.
The very men who wish to ban
communism on the campus, justi-
fy themselves by arguing that
comniunism forces the individual to
conform to a pattern of behaviour
and thought laid down by anoth-
er. It is an ironic method of rea-
soning, for by asking that this
group be destroyed, they are ask-
ing everyone to conform to their
own theories. What guarantee do
they give that they will not seek
to destroy anything else which
runs contrary to their own ideas
of truth?
We may be smugly certain that
nothing could limit our intellec-
tual freedom here. Tradition Is
too strong we say.
The University Tests Aot of 1871
abolished limitation or religious
freedom at Oxford and Cam-
bridge, and this has become a
precedent in all other schools of
any worth. But we need only look
southward to see examples of a
break with traditional freedom,
and in "schools of worth", too.
The Texas legislature recently
vote^ for the expulsion of a uni-
versity professor who described
our economic system as decadent.
These self-righteous politicians
also cut the salary of the State
University Chancellor who refus-
ed to comply with .hat order.
The Board of Re^'ents of the
University of California lately at-
tempted to force its faculty to
sign a loyalty oath in a misguid-
ed struggle to preserve freedom.
The court which discussed this
action significantly described the
attempt as subversive, word
usually limited to use in reference
to the object of their distrust.
Said the court: "Equal to the dan-
ger of subversion from without by
means of force and violence in the
danger of subversion from within
by the gradual whittling away and
disintregation of the very pillars
of our freedom."
There is a weaUiess in this
negative approach which smacks
of defeatism. If we are not
agreement with the doctrines of
a group on our campus,
have the right to speak out against
it. We may approach it positive-
ly and counter disagreeable ideas
with arguments of our own. If
our own are strong enough, and
"right" enough, we will achieve
better affects than would the out^
lawing of an undesirable group,
Tbe attitude on our campus
seems to be that if a student ap^
pears at a meeting of the Chris-
tian pacifists, tlie liberals, the
communists, or the anthropolo-
gists he is necessarily one of
them. It is almost inconceivable
that anyone should attend in or-
der to disagree with them.
If we remain content in our le-
thargic attitude and listen calm-
ly while irate citizens demand
the banning of minority schools
of thought on our campus, then
we may expect to accompany the
plunge which will carry us to the
position where others will decide
what we may think. The lead-
ership of the university, on which
our society depends, will be fraudu-
lent if we allow the destruction of
the inquisitive, unbridled, indi-
vidual mind. Carl MoUlns

The Weaning Process
Education, from the Latin "to bring up", was to the ancients %
process of developing the powers of body and mind by proper Instruc-
tion.
In the present Canadian educational system, the method of teach-
ing pure fact by means of recitation and compulsion has been dis-
carded. We have accepted the supervised system of "tri^l and error
situations" . . , where a child is presented with a maze of sltuationj
in wliich he will first fail, but be stimulated to try again with
ultimate success. The practice of this theory overshadows formal
learning in our public schools.
After eight or nine years of this influence, the child wtio has
successfully adjusted himself to the standard of social behaviour sel
by the educationalists, and who has incidentally acquired a few scat-
tered pieces of knowledge about Javanese tapioca growers or the diet
o£ the arctic seal, enters high school. In the next few years he is fed
a hodge-podge of fact dressed up in the form of pictures, movies, radio
and television. This is designed to inform the child concerning any
field which he may meet.
Tlie noun "child" is still used because this is the level to whicli
the information is geared. Naturally when a teen-ager is given re-
sponsibility at this point the results are often disasterous hence verify-
ing the objections so often raised when the high school age group
ask for more liberty.
Pre-nniversily education, as described, is not always tbe case.
But this generalization is a valid one. The result of such education
IS a group of people who (with some exceptions) have not been
stimulated to larger reahns of thought and action, have not been
adjusted to their environment; In short, have not been educated.
Rather they have been adapted to. in knowledge and action, the meaa
of the group. This mai( be good or bad.
For the advancement of clvillxatioo, we must have a generatioa
of inquiring minds; for a stable, secure, mediocre civilization we need
not. Or in Matthew Arnold's words, "The impulses toward action help
and beneficence: the desire for removhig human error, cleariog' con-
fusion, removing misery; the noble aspiration to leave the world better
and happier than we found it . . . can only be stimulated by knowledg*
and activated by self -discipline.
By generaliiation of the courses, and by the elimination of th«
bulk of material which was covered fifty years ago. the subject matter
In school has become over-simplified. Invalid fact. Students aie given
only a Reader's Digest version of the fascinating development ttirough
which our culture has already past.
Along with the climlnaticm of the bulk of learning, the responsi-
bility created by home-work, and the responslbUity of searchmg for
infoi-mation for one's self have been omitted. Only by the self-
dicipline which such responsibility requires and teaches, can the activa-
tion of thoughts and motions be transmitted.
So tor we have commented on pre-university education in relation
in institutions of a formal nature. But education has much broader
connotations, and the goals, if not the methods, of our ideal system
must be the same m every phase of the chUd's environment.
Oar preesnt day regrorgitations of the "master-s" in the comic bookj
and the motion pictures, the increasing influence of radio and video
and the one-sided presentation of religion by individual sects, are aU
geared to leave a regimentation of ideas witli their audience. Not only
is this propaganda limited ui its scope, but it does not neces^tat*
thought on the part of its recipients — students massed on th«
production line.
While it would be unfair to design primary and secondary education
programmes specifically for those students who subsequenUy entw
university, by presenting a stimulus for knowledge and by training
in self-discipline it would be possible to develop the maximum ability
of each student. In this way the individual would be better "tuned to
reality" regardless, of the field he pursues. Margaret Wekh.

To Walk Alone
It has been suggested that univeisity education Is our society is
education lor a free society. Accepting that sLat-ement at its lace
value, it is apparent that the most important freedoms that concem
us here are Ihose of thought and discussion. At a time when those
freedom.s are beinp threatened, it becomes imperative to worry about
higher education. Current trends toward conformity of thought present
a "clear and pre.-^ent danger" to our intellectual freedom, and it is
the duty of any university to lead the attack on these undermining
influences.
The proper objective of education, to use the words of Principal
Jeanneret, shr ild be, "learning how to think, rather than what to
think." In order to be able to contribute his best to society, tlie
individual must, to a considerable extent, first be freed from society.
By that I mean that he must learn to, think independently of society,
rather than blindly follow its prevailing opinions. To quote Principol
Jeanneret again. "The ability to thing for yourself, to walk alone,
was never more needed than in this period of propaganda and majss
thinking." The prime purpose of education is to assist the individual
to develop his own intellectual potentialities to the fullest possible
extent, and this, of course, is a task which the individual himself
must accomplish. It cannot be "taught"' to him.
Docs the organization of the University of Toronto lend itself to
assisting the student in striving for this goal? In maYiy respects,
present trends are detrimental to this attempt. For example, the
T^iority of purposes for which funds are spent is to be deplored.
Money has been alocated for enlarging the stadium and for the more
•"practical" science departments — for "defence" or. in other words,
loT destructive purixises — to the great disadvantage of the library,
the humanities, nnd the social sciences. The idea of a double stan-
dard of salaries in favour of the profeijsional faculties was the most
Irightening sviggestion of all.
Other common practices also tend to hamper the real purpose of
higlier education. These are (he examination system and its concomi-
tant, the spirit of competition for standing. The only type of com-
petition that should be welcomed in a university is the competition of
ideas. It is in this realm that this university is seen in its best light.
The multiplicity of departments teaching essentially the same subjects
from dilterenl and even opposing points of view, and the existence
of the separate federated colleges, awaken in the student the realization
that tnilh cannot be monoixilized. With this realization the individual
nuist fall back on his own abilitiy to think, and this, to repeat, is
the true purpose oi education.* There can be no conviction more valu-
able to anyone than conviction after doubt.
Indeed, one may even go so far as to say that in an age such
lis ours of ■•pi'opaganda and mass thinking", the truly educated man
is the skeptic. The University of Toronto provides many opportunities
to the -Student to create this ".skepticism", but it is obvious, and at the
same time reereitable, that loo few students want to take advantage
of these facilities.

Over the arch of Victoria Col-
lege carved in the fading stone
are the words "The Truth Shall
Make You Free." Strangely
enough' these words are only a
half-truth, the inference minus
the premise: "You Shall Know
the Truth." Whatever its many
functions, "to know the truth" is
the University's foremost task.
Yet in our advancing agnostic
age. that word "truth" has all but
lost its meaning, and "freedom"
runs not far behind. The terms
have become holiow. not by _^
twist.^f laguage or a quirk of ac-
cent, but by the fact that we talk
in a time of hollow men. Poet
T. S. Eliot's dictum of the roar-
ing twenties still holds as we turn
to 1952 and the role of religion in
the University.
At the University of Toronto, the
branches of our motto "Velut Arbor
Aevo", are hard put to flourish
when its roots are cut and its
trunk hollow, and Its leaves are
fluttering in "know-how" and
•■know-what". but rarely in "know-
where" or "know-why." A creep-
ing paralysis sets in when the
root of the tree is cut. Death
comes slowly and gradually, not
suddenly. So dies the tree of
truth if it loses its religious root.
Dr. Mortimer Adier ot the Uni-
versity of Chicago sees the seats
of higher learning empty of abso-
lutes. He says the University has
thinned its curricula to a new ma-
terialism, or "scientism", which
turns morals and religion to dust,
all with the result that the cam-
pus resounds with ethically ster-
ile words like "scientific", "ob-
jectivity", and "ideology", but is
unresponsive to value terms like
"right", "wrong", "justice", "con-
science", and "ideals". The
only key to open the door to Truth
is the current fashion: "Nothing
is either good or bad but thinking
makes it so." We search now for
relativity in truth, and absolutes
have fallen by the way.
Narrowed by faculty division and
overflowing calendars, we fall in-
to the pose of experts, specialists
who knew "more and more about
less and less." Robert Hutchins,
president emeritus of the Uni-
versity of Chicago, sees educa-
tion as split into fields in which
"chemists could not speak to
lawyers, and hardly anyone was
speaking to God, where every
thing was a matter of opinion and
each opinion as important as i
every other."
At the University of Toronto.
those colleges concerned witli reli-
gion, its conijionents of ethic and
ends. Trinity. Victoria and St.
Michael's and their theological
counterparts are verily "islands un-
to thesmselves", not so much by
geography,, but by practice. Con-
fronted by this insularity of tlie
"church colleges" w-itti their dog-
matic divergences and split-hair
conventions, the imdergrad who
looks for the security of an ab.so-
lute, a Truth that is "there,"
searches in vain, and turns to ttie
unity and embracing arms of
Ball'u'lah.
We of the 20th Century are
skeptics of what's what in life.
Everything is propaganda, and
we live with a closed mind. Clos-
ed because we are afi-aid. We
hollow. Youth in the Uni
versity is kept intoxicated in ac
tivity without reflection on just
what this push for knowledge has
to do with life. And as Schweit-
zer aptly pricks the spirit of our
time : '"We wander hither and
thither in the gathering dusk un-
formed by any definite theory of
the universe, like harmless drunk-
en mercenaries." I do not pro-
pose the University should be a
propaganda post. It should be a
community in search of Truth,
but so long as it dwells on means
and foregoes ends, its members
decay to hollow men.
Biology it seems has a monopoly
on Beginning and ^Theology on
the End. But what of the vast
course betv.-een the two? We can-
not come to know the Truth until
there is intercourse between the
faculties, that interplay and ex-
change of minds. There Imust be
talk. Without the feeding and
feed-back of thought we cannot
commuBicate, and unless we com-
municate, we cannot share the
search for Truth.

What is it to be able to think
in a mature manner? For one
thing, it is an ability to make
tbe jump from particulars ta
generalities. It is the ability to
weigh and sift evidence before
reaching conclusions. It in-
volves an effort to curb the self-
an effort of the will. The most
ness in us in making decisions;
outstanding .characteristics of
such a man is that be is adapt-
able.
Let me list some of the reas-
ons why students are not being
effectively taught to think.
(1) The trend towards larger
colleges, universities and class-
es. It is the rare professor who
can stimulate a class of three
hundred. It Is all hot a physic-
al impossibility.
(2) The vast amount of infor-
mation on any subject which
each department feels bound. to
impart to the students.
(3) The system of recruithig
college teachers. The man who
knows the most is tlie one who
gets the- job, which, more speci-
fically means the man witii the
Ph.D. Naturally these men
would rather deliver lectures
crammed with information than
worry with thinking.
(4) There are too many pleas-
ant temptations around the stu-
dent: athletics, fraternity doings,
dates, roommates, radios movies,

provide a definite, impersonal

can grant desirees, but they tend

sar to pass the exam as being

result is often a parrot-like repe-
tilion of facts without considera-
tion and university graduates who
have not received a university
education.
In a sipeech on the topic of educa-
tion at tiie University of Toronto,
Warden Ignatieff told the Cara-

capable of judging what is "col-
ored" and "slanted" in what a
professor says, even though the
students are warned to question
whether the professor is right.
The reasons given for removing
a professor are usually that when
tolerance of radical:; may be all
right in theory, we are engaged in
a "cold war" and cannot afford to
take chances. This attitude could
be described as curtailing our
freedom to save ouj freedom,
with no definite promise that we
will not lose so much of our free-J

are familiar: that is to say, familiar at least in
the sense of being so congruous to pre-existing

Bull Session
TABLE DOWN AT MOKE\ S
Winter has suddenly attacked us In full force over the weekend.
And as usual. I am in retreat. Tonight, arriving on the dark., quiet,
chilly campus to ^nite this, my fhst thought was to flee to the succor
of the Hart House Shop. But it is late and Sunday besides. If Hart
House were open, ss on weekdays, there would be a cup ol steaming
coffee to thaw out the frozen extremities, and if any congenial souls
were about, perhaps warming sips of learning might accompanj- the
process of restoration.
The Hart House tucfe shop has often been upheld by student
sages as the place where -more education is gained than in any
lecture-roc«i or lab. This may only prove that our student sages are
essentially romantic at heart. But on a city campus like ours, it is the
tuck shops, and the piJbs, and the Morey s where education can be
gleaned. FaJling back on the John Dewey Idea, "participation" is the
essence of the process of being educated.
We are exposed to lecturers which te-nd to be one-way affaiis.
We sit and perhaps absorb. At any rate we take notes, especially on
things ihat might end up as questions on the final exams. But how
much do we think about what we are being exposed to?
"We aje letting our studies int^erfere with our education." This
statement from a letter to The Varsity this IrII has been tossed aoout
in the Hart House tuck shop and in the Chez Paree. What Walt
Stewart said has struck a chord among many. It Is not an original
idea, of course, but Stewart has said it at a very ripe moment.
THE BOGEY OF EXAMS
We are too terrified by exams. We are too stifled by essays and
assignments. "Read books? I haven't got time: I've got too much work
to do." Tiiis is not a rare alibi, it is sounded often in the Tuck Shop, on
the front campus, and on the Philixsopher s Walk.
Because of the exams on which everything depends, our classes
are punctuated by questions about wliclher thi^ or that will be on the
exam. We are too concerned wilh May to be able to think in Novem-
ber. Some lecturers have been known to cla.^yes a blueprint of the
exams to ccme. Exams are a "necesiiiry evil ", we have to get by them.
Essays have come under the same sort of treatment. How many
of us write "original ' essays? Isn't it much easier to parrot ideas back
from lecture notes, and the references handed down by the professors?
Easier perhaps to find an earlier e>say on the same topic and rewrite
it to fit the current mold. And why not? There is so little time to do
the re-search and the thinking for an e-ssav. Unless we spend all our
time in lectures, reference reading and assignments, most of us are un-
able 10 do much more than take a lia.'-ly .sideswipe at essays because
the deadline draws near. And do not many professors treat the essays
only as work done, rather than e.\:imuie them for quality? Pernaas liU
of lis are faced with the problem of not iiavicn^ i-nough hours In the day.
But cxnms and essays are ab-ohitely necessary. How else would
a student's progress be measured? The university is too large, we are
only examination numbers in the final aniilysis
Only in tlie graduate field are orals and theses the basic
measuremetits of education. But how many of us who can pass exams
handily are capable of facine up to a rigorous oral? In other words,
how many of iis know anything, even if we can pass examinations?
In the >ix or eight weeks from Ihe end of March to the middle
of May, all education stops. We memorize and summarize instead. We
study exam questions so that we can at Ica^t plan out an attack on the
exams. If we do not pass exams, our university existence runs down.
OFF-CAMPUS EDUCATION
On the senior year and graduate level, parUcularly in honor
courses, the Seminar looms importantly even if infrequently. One stu-
dent suggestion of tlie ideal educational method is to expose a small
group of students to a discussion between two professors. Thi^ is not
the tulor-led group idea, but that the men would talk and dis^..-^';. and
perhaps after a baffling introductory phase, the students would begin
to catch on. This is an impractical idea to put into force because of
reasons of economy if nothing else. But in a small way, it is even being
practised by a few enterprising men on this campus.
The discussion is the essence of education. And even in lec-
tures, the digression often Is the true bit of education. But are we pa-
tjent enough, especially with the spectre of passing exams hovering
near, to wa^t to Indulge in the digression? Oi- do we feel somewhat un-
happily that there are quirks of particular professors that have to be
suffered?
A party, held in an apartment where parents will not ring the
curfew, can be an educative Morey's. Bull sessions, with beer in hand,
and some thought and Ideas to toss aoout can be education. Even if
this is punctuated by an obvious and direct interest In an obliging and
fundamental young blonde, the atmosphere can lead to an exchange
and re-examination ol ideas, others and yours.
I have talked about the fallings of the university to provide
for the educative process. Perhaps the most important thing is that
anyone claiming a right to that kind of education, must have something
to contribute himself. At least he must be armed with some thinking
or experience. Otherwise, no matter how many opporturdtles for dis-
cussion and participation are provided, whether formally on the campus,
or informally until three ajn. olf-campus, there would be little educa-

STREETCAR COLLEGE
The Degree
Is ours a "streetcar university"? Do we come to
university just for facts or to learn to be useful
parts of a community and intelligent components
of a free society?
The ideal, we feel, would be the latter alter-
native. Education is not just the assimilation of
knowledge, but the attainment of wisdom: the
learning of how to use those facts to make this
world a better place to live in. But the situation
Is that an embarrassingly large proportion of stu-
dents at the University of Toronto are coming just
for the sake of the degree — or the social con-
tacts — or the prestige of being able to call them-
•elves, with just the slightest shade of superiority,
John Canuck, BA.
Ours is a city university. It is sprawled out over
B large and incoherent area. It is also organized —
or disorganized — under the affiliated college
system. These are two strong causes for a deplor-
able effect: a lack of communication among
coliege.s, faculties and department.
The Engineers don't know how Trinity lives,
except in caricature, and the Trinity man's idea
of the Engineer is just aa stereotyped. Lack of
communication between the Scieiwe and Arts
FacuJties is readily granted. But lack of oommuni-
cation among the Arts Colleges themselve-s exists
Just as much.
' It exists primarily because of the old bear of
student apathy. The complaint is that a student
going into university has a large variety of activ-
Uie.s to choose from — probably close to fifty.
In his first year he may plunge into five or six
of them, until he realizes that it is more than
flesh can bear. Or, he may find the effort of

choice too much for him and slink into an aca-
demic sheU right from the start.
Eltlier way. finally the vast bulk or extra-cur-
ricular activities proves overwhelming. The result
is apathy, except in the cases of a few well-
balanced and more enlightened individuals who
stick to their guns and take leadership and active
participation in one or two carefully chosen activ-
ities. But the sad majority are stumped.
When students arc not properly orientated in
their own colleges and faculties, it is an unlikely
hope that there will be much communication with
others.
The large sprawling city university is at a dis-
advantage, first of all for geographic reasons. The
college town setup for an institution of higher
learning is ideal, in that it brings students closer
together, making the college more central to their
lives. In a system where students know each other
well, communication and apathy present no prob-
lem.
But stoAents have their own interests before
they come to college. In Toronto, a city university,
with many students living at home, it Is very
easy to maintain these private interests. They
don't mix with other students. Ideas don't get
tossed around as much as they should, and when
loftoon by Hugh Niblock,
they are. they reach a smaller- percentage of the
studen.s. The chanoe to meet others with com-
mon interest on the campus and to develop new
interests is almost nullified.
The University of Toronto, then. Is far from the
ideal. Here, most of us do not learn the valuable
lessons of Jiving in a democratic community and
a free society which the university should offer
Too many inta-overts and nonentities are being
mass-produced. University seems to be, with the
majority, a business instead of a life. It is only
somewhere to spend the dreary hours between nine
^^K, ; lecture-devouring the study. It is
nothing less than a waste of the best opportunity
that life will ever offer.
The Students' Administrative Council made an
abortive attempt this year, in its Freshmen Orien-
tation Program, to "get 'em young": an effort to
show first year students that university can mean
more to them than the limits of their chosen
course and the individuals in it. Unfortunately
lack of co-ordination made the program rather
a flop. But it is an Idea that, if properly effected,
oould go a long way toward breaking down coUege
barriers and making students aware that the un%
versity is more than the classroom.

These pep rallies, football games, campus shows,

noise and motion should not impress the thought-
ful student as having much value. Too many such
events tend to widen the regrettable gap between
students and faculty. It appears that there is t
great" reluctance on the part of many members
of the staff to take the initiative in becoming
active participants in the extra-curricular eveiiia
with which the campus abounds. University stu-
dents are no longer children, but then they s
not quite adults.
They are bewildered by the bludgeonings ol
adolescence and are struggling to grow up. They
yearn to live easily with their fellows and to
resolve their ethical confusions. Most students are
probably conscious of their short-comings in the
social graces and in their ability to put forward
an idea clearly and simply. Yet they refuse ta
put forth the necessary effort required to take
advantage of the opportunities for the elimination
of some of their difficulties, which the varioui
clubs and societies offer. Yet it is unfortunately
true that the many opportunities for eliminatlns
these difficulties offered by the clubs and societies
are spurned by the majority of atudwits in i'
various colleges and faculties.
The resuH is that most often, only a few a"

The report of the Royal Com-

in the Arts, Letters and Sciences"
contains no surprises. Royal Com-
misfions are. of course, a prin-
cipal form of Canadian culture.
If somebody totally ignorant
Canada were asked what a Vic-

think about cultural matter;, in
the Marconi Era he could preUy

tion to world culture, a fact which
recalls to mind that more than
a century ago European audienc-
es were addicted to American
frontier wit and fantasy. Edgar
Poe's technical inventiveness rev-
olutionized European ait. and
Pound and Eliot have advanced
what Poe began.
Technological change, in short,
had upset the balance of English
society by 1850. producing a large
degree of moral, intellectual, and
of ; emotional ■"illiteracy" which
amounted to a critical break-down
of communication at ail social lev-
els. This situation was faced by
Arnold in Culture and Anarchy.
But Arnold's report on culture in
England while deploring the ""be-
setting faith in machinery" was
based on no analysis of the chang-
es that had actually occurred.
Had he had the insights and tools
of analysis employed by a Sieg-
fried Giedion in Mechanization
Takes Command, Arnold might
not have fallen into llie trap of
moralizing about the plight of cul-
ture in terms of an antecedent
situation. He might have sub-
stituted precise diagnosis for
moral alarm and exhortation. He
might even have seen that the
ai'ts. at first banished to an ivory
tower by an industiial age, were
oin, for good or ill. to transform
unfriendly to tliem.
Very little reflection will serve
to establish that esthe-
tic -experience on this continent,
as conlrasted with Europe, has
technically been acquired not
from contemplation and analysis
of linguistic and elastic forms but
from landscape. And the land-
scapes of this continent are at
once a challenge to ingenuity and
a promise of power. The eventaal
control oJ the L'eo2rajDhy has
brought into existence a great var-
iety of roads, vehicles, factories,
and dams which are themselves
the main objects of esthetic ap-
peal to young and old. So that
our central esthetic satisfactions
are related to the precise contours
of engineered objects which must
be regarded as works of collective
art as much as a newspaper or
a movie.
Yet all these objects, as well as
the human organization necessary
for their creation and mainten-
ance, are officially regarded " '

ical age enfolds the great audi-
ence in passive sleep and enter-
tainment. The tower of sleep or
Babel is the negative feature of
our culture against which the hu-
manist must struggle as those
lost in snow and cold.
But there are many positive
features of the new culture which
command astonishing vistas for
those who can keep awake. The
mistake is to suppose that either
alertness or immunity to the new
situations is to be purchased by
regarding these developments as
merely deplorable or vulgar. The
humanist has either to enter
teclrfiological culture as a new
patrimony, to be transformed
from within, or else to accept the
sentence of effacement. That is,
he cannot maintain antecendent
values except by unprecedented
modes of aetlvity. But the new

come to the end of the Gutenberg

ety of audio-visual forms of com-

even the chai'acter of printed

So that there is ho question but
that the centuries-old literary bas-

the continuance of the humaniiies
have depended on that; and with no
cynical asperity it must be said
that no other possibility exists.

Varsity Wins-
For Excellence
The Varaty is the best large college newspaper In Canada, according
to the judges of the annual Canadian University Press (CUP) competi-
tions. They awarde-d The Varsity the Southam Trophy for general
excellence of an EingUsh language university newspaper with a circula-
tion of 3,000 or more. This was made at the annual CUP conference
in Hamilton, December 27 to 29.
"Good balance and competent general coverage presented in a lively
fashion placed The Varsity first in a close fight with the Gazette (U of
Western Ontario) second and the Manitoban (U of Manito'oa) third,"
said the judges. Walter Christopherson, City Editor, The Gazetie 4Mont-
real), Stuart Keate, Publisher of the Victoria Dally Times, GUlLs Pur-
cell, General Manager of Canadian Press.
Purcell felt The Varsity took a "sound analytical approach to news —
witness The Case-Pro and Con on the invitation to Soviet students-
reprinted in toto in many other university papers — and a sense of humor
evidenced in the IVlanitoban issue." "Literate, mature, adult — almost too
much so, if you know what I mean," said Keate, adding "It seemed to
take a sombre view of life in general and had a tendency to overplay
left-wing activities."
The judging for the Southam Trophy is based on three consecutive
issues piiblished during the fall, the dates of which are selected at
random by the judges..
This is the second time The Varsity has won such an award. In
-I9tI,6 it won the Bracken Trophy which at that tin^.e was given for
general excellence. When the Southam Trophy was inaugurated, ths
Bracken became an award for excellence in editoriab alone.
The Southam Trophy was awarded to the McGill Daily in 1948*
and held in the intervening three years by the Gazette, which, placed
second in this year's competition. The Manltoban was third.
The Gazette's presentation and layout were fields in which it led
all other papers, said the fudges. They felt The Manitoban appeared to
have been put together ' with loving care, and showed the imprint of the
Winnipeg Free Press.
They commented that perUaps students deemed education too seriou*
a business these days to leave room to scoff. At the same time, they
noted the lack of cartooning in college publications.
The Bracken Trophy, eniblemattc of editorial excellence, was award-
ed The Manitoban for the clear-cut. light touch with which they handled
appropriate and varied subjects. Federal Aid and the Massey Report
were the .subjects of two of the three winning editorials.
The Varsity, winners of the Bracken Trophy last year, placed one
point behind with editorials described as having significant variety,
superior writing and in some cases being very nearly brlliant. The
Carloton, Carleton College, Ottawa, was third.
The Jacques Bureau Trophy, awarded papers with under 3,000 circu-
lation was taken for the third consecutive year by The Silhouette. Mc-
Master University, with the ^Acadia Athenaenm second ai>d The Carle-
ton third.
The Le Droit Trophy for general excellence of French language
papers was awarded Le Quartier Latin, University of Montreal, which
one of the judges described as narrow in range, but excellent . , . typical
of classic student revolutionaries of France. Le Carabin, Laval Univer-
sity, Quebec was second.

and executes the recommendations
passed by the delegates at the an-
nual conference.
Next year the CUP conference
will be held at MoGill University

ed that with Montreal closing the
taverns and clubs early on Christ-

appear to be a better city in which
to spend the Christmas holiday.
M. Gerard FiUon, editor of Le
Devoir, was unanimously elected
honorary OUP president for ttie
coming year. M. PlUon is the first
French -Canadian to be elected to
this position, although prominent
French -Canadians including Pre-

Parking
Puzzle
Perplexes
Although almost twice m many
people are drlvlne to tie campus
as belore t^ie TTC strike, unlver-
elty officials are planning no ex-
tension ol parking facilities.
The man in charee of parkins:—
Assistant Superintendent A 1 e c
RusseU-says that on Monday
university cars almost doubled.
Ordinarily about 350 people diive
to the campus, he said.
Russell said that at present tb.
university is taking no acUon lo
alleviate the situation. A sugges-
tion that the back and front campi
be cleared of snow tor parking
purposes was answered, It would
be nice, but absolutely out of the
question."
The campi have no bottom, Ru.'^-
sell pointed out. In case ol a
thaw, the cars would ruin them
for any lutuje sports use. And Uie
cost ol retinishing a plaugbed-up'-
surlace would be prohibitive, he
added.
Meanwhile, staff and students
alike had trouble finding parking
•pots for their cars. On the cam-
pus cars with permits were park-
ing on both sides of the front
campus road— In spite of regula-
tions. BusseU said the police were
doing their best to keep the inside
clear, in case of emergency.
On the streets around the cam-
pus, every available spot was fill-
ed by nine a.m. The driveway in
front of the university's men's
residences was filled with cars
lined bumper to bumper. So
■were the lanes leading to Trinity's
parking lot. Many students were
late for lectures because of the
hunt for spaces. Hitch-hikers

'I thoroughly enjoyed myself up

fense Research Board, Professor
Carpenter spent his Christmas and

His home for the five weeks was
though reported business better

split between an igloo and a frail
wooden shack. The only other
person to accompany him was
Morton Teicher. a graduate stu-
dent in An'-hropolog>'. They spent
most of their time accompanying
the Eskimos on hunting and fish-
ing trips. The "family" group
where thev stayed consisted of
about 20 Eskimos. Because of the
kinship problem there. Professor
Carpenter had to become the "son"
of one of the couples. "It was
amusing," he stated, "because my
mother was always telling me
where to get off."
During one of the hunting trips
Carpenter managed to sink the
second harpoon into a seal. This
feat gives the harpooner the
privilege of having the left shoul-
der. This particular seal shoulder
weighed close to 600 pounds: '"We
ate the dcmn thing." he stated.
The Eskimos up there are clise
to extinction; they all have TB
and the trapping problem is in-
creasing. A pelt that would have
sold for approximately $52 now sells
for $3. An Eskimo hunter can
hardly make $18 a winter, just
enough to pay for his cartridges.
The only hope is that some sup-
plies may soon be available from
an abandoned army base near their
village. Professor Carpenter hopes
to return there in a lew years to
continue his studies.

By JACK GRAY
YOU think you have it tough with stxikes and essays and u ,
simUar aids to modern Uving? These, friend^ are nothmg. Vout^
be a campus show reviewer. With the faculty ^f^ows now fadinl H
mind and only the All Varsity Rwrue to come (in February) ''^
is one of more or less unrelieved gloom. i"ci,i,
Jnst before the term ended in r>eceml>er the Medical PacuiK,
sented DaffydU Night, 1951. It was the last of this year's facuu," '
and the best. I wish I could make a statement like that
sounding like an insult.
I saw the first show. That was too bad. but most of the thl„
didn't hke about it lasted I'm told. It was too long, it startedT^
smash number, and quietly went downhiU. The first night lacked
which I understand picked up as the show ran along through iu ,
night but Daffydii still went on for three hours. li
In spite of this kind of thing Daffydii was a good sliow,
parison with this year's crop. It was tied around a theme (Nicoio,";'
the great Russian producer. PRESENTS ). I want to say j^oniMr
about the youn- man who played Nioolovitch himself. Daffv<ii|.,7
ducer Manny Rotenhurg. I wish he hadn't been so modest, i ^
had put himseU into more numbers. Perhaps he was pretty '
producing the show, but his two appearances were high spots, and S
time to time I kept hoping he would come on again. As a product
don't think he's so good. But as a performer. Botenburg stands high
the lists this year.
The saiging chorus in Daffydii was very good, but like the shi
they wilted as the hours moved along. The dancing- chorus was,
best of the year. They were not only the best, but they had uje
action, and thy smiled. The skits were average, and limp.
Rotenbnrg and Oo. got the show oft to a rousing start with Ki«t
viU)h Hakes » Picture. This was perhaps the best single number
tJie show. Next we had a clean bedroom drama, with plenty or thin
wrong with it (the hero foreot to take off hia overcoat when he ,
into bed. for example (but by and large it was fun if not funny, a si
marine Named Desire had an interesting set (the Inside of a submarii
and that was all. Knights of The Pool Table tried to acniM-g \
Runyon tradition, but apart from a pleasant ending it had little
recommend it. One skit. Ail Qoiet, or. Boom, the graduating yea
number, drew on the medical .•school background for much of its hiimc
and managed to be funny, interesting, and on a higher level than i
rest of the skits. It gained from Rotenberg's General Lues von He
heimcr, but could have used some cutting.
The best thing about Daffrdil this jear however was not its hum,
but its musical numbers. There were two of these, Carnival Km<s\u
and Tut Tut King Tot or Tomb It May Concwn. In the word^ ^
music department Carnival stood out. with We Know Wlut ii\
Aboat (Jerry Drexler) and I Need Somebody like Yon (d
Rotenburg). The Daffydii Chorus Line was superb m this n.
are certainly the best of the year. Galdwell, Page, Tench and j
Hayseeds were good; Caldwell won hands down. Helen Spicer and ^
Blodgett stood out in the I Need number, while Nancy Hazel anj
Vousden shone in a dance routine. One delightful bit o£ humor
provided by Tom Bell's "Double Jointed Fanny."
Tut Tut King Tut did not have the same high level of enterla,
ment as the Carnival number but it did have its high spots. Ljticsi
the songs were good, and The Arabian Days also managed to proin
a little music. Stan Bain and Stan Greben were responsible lor t
songs. The outstanding group in the Tut number however was 1
water bearers, Auerbach. Dobbin, Evans, Good, Gussack and Qmt!,

given the job. as the CUP execu-
tive paper, of arranging contests in
these fields for Canadian students.
It is hoped to have the contests

the annual CUP contests was that
there was a great lack of humor-

"Sprechen Sle Deutsch- oder
Parlez-vous francais?" These two
questions were heard frequently
this past werfi-end. The Univer-
sity of Toronto was host to 19 stu-
dents from Austria. The Austrian
group was in Toronto to present a
concert of folk dancing and folk
songs last night in Convocation
Hall as a gesture of good will.
This is the third Austrian Good-
will Tour to North America. Ac-
quaintances were renewed, people
and places in common were dis-
covered and many new friendships
made, Toronto students and their
guests compared noCes on skiing
conditions in the Alps and the
Rockies. Fritz Feirersinger, a stu-
dent In institutional management
at Vienna, complained that our ski
runs are too short. The best skiing
on the continent is In Stowe, Ver-
mont, he said. The group spent
some time there last montii.
Fourth form German is inade-
quate for conversational purposes,
many Toronto students discovered.
Fortunately most of the Austrians
spoke intelligible English. "Je
t'aime" was an expression frequent-
ly heard. It was used with various
inflections in the manner of
"Deuxleme Etage" which delighted
the Austrians.
The tour has been organised by
the Bureau for Student Tours and
Exchanges, Vienna, and has spon-
sors from many parts of the world.
The concerts of folk songs and
dances help to pay the expenses of
the tour.
The colorful peasant costumes
worn during the concert are on loan
from provincial museums of Aust-
ria. The students also wear a
national costume, described by one
of them as his "Second-Sunday
Best". The grey suit With green
lapels and its distinctive wooden
buttons made the Austrians readily
identifiable. All Austrians have
tliese suits wiiich aie worn on spe-
cial occasions.
Dr. Oskar Bock, lector at the
University of Vienna, Is leading the
tour. Aiding Dr. Bock in the direc-
tion of this series of concerts is Dr.
Susanne Posterer. A native of
Vienna, Dr. Polsterer acts as art
director. Mistress of Ceremonies,
and Performer. She is an experi-
enced actress and also a Ph.D.
The group arrived in Toronto
early Sunday morning. In the af-
ternoon they attended a tea given
by the Friendly Relations with
Overseas Students committee of
Toronto. Tliis was the first op-
portunity for really testing one's
German. The Austrians met many
students from Varsity and compar-
ed notes on courses, exams, food,
clothes and similar related topics.
While in Toronto, the Austrian
students were the guests of Varsity
students.

T.T.C. STRIKE
Campus Carries On
"The time limit for books com-
ing into the University libraries
after the Christmas holidays has
been extended until further no-
tice," said W. S. Wallace, head
Librarian of the University of To-
ronto on Monday.
Because of difficulties in ar-
ranging transportation to the Uni-
versity as a result of the TTC
strike, Mr. Wallace said that stu-
dents returning these Christinas
books late would not be penalized.
Books taken out overnight should
be returned to the library the fol-
lowing day even if they do not ar-
rive before the morning deadline.
Wallace said that the books should
be returned to the ll^jrary in time
to go out again at three o'clock,
and that if the excuse for lateness
was a valid one, no fine would be
levied.
The main library will close at
6:00 p.m. in^rtead of at the usual
10:00 p.m., since the staff working
at the library cannot get transpor-
tation to their homes at that late
hour. However, the reading room in
University College and the LAW
reading room in the main library
will remain open in the evening.
Aside from the changes in the
library schedule, the Universtty as
a whole functioned smoothly and
normally on the first day that It
was affected by the TTC strike.
According to J." C. Evans, Univer-
sity Registrar, there have been no
more absentees than there are in
anv other normal school day, Sev-
, eral of the staff members at Sim-
coe Hall thumbed rides to work
but "the offices are fully manned

Book Review Editor
Issues of the Trinity Review, Acta Victoriana and the Undcrgrad hit
the campus just before the holidays and the sober moments of our
Christmas were spent contemplating the predicament of College Maga-
;-'.nes on the campus. Next week we will deal with the Trinity Review,
but it seemed appropriate to bundle Acta and Undergrad together
because they differ so much in their ideas of what a College Maga^e
should be.
The Under^rad stands out as a strictly "literary" effort. Onlv the
except from a speech by Principal Jeanneret in the opening pages
would ever lead you to suspect its collese affiliations.' Articles on
PUm, Canadian Poetry, the use of words. Art. and the use of imagery
in literature are to be found, ajong with some undistinguished poetry
and three short stories.
We cannot help but admire the attempt of the editors to keep
their magazine off the stamping ground of local gossip and traditions
and up in a literary atmosphere, but we wonder if it's really worth
It after all when the material itself hardly deserves the ride We
think that the standards set by the Under-rad could only be mam-
tamed by a campus literary magazine. If such an animal existea
then Olga Skey would not be an embarrassed diamond in the rough.
Acta Victoriana, on the other hand, gave in long ago to the fact
that one College rarely had enough people interested in creative
writing around at the same time to produce a genuinely literary maga-
zine. Vic Then and Now, The Bob Revue. What Vic Reads, the sUitus
of women on the campus and the Vic PootOjall Team all have a place
mActa and make it the fine little "college Mag" it is. We even b'-^sn
to wonder after reading this issue why it continues to publish creative
wntmg at all, for its Doetry was even less than undistinguished e-cepb
for Allan Evans' short contribution. There was only one short storr
which was. fortunately, well written and managed to give th- I'yjue '
some literary prestige. Of the sort we give a retired pilot who takes '
us up for a short jaunt on a Sunday afternoon to shoV us he can
still fly. # . «

ing and original as the first. The
tlieme basically is the same as that
of other Voices — human isolation —
but this time he approaches it in
the comic manner.
It is a charming fantasy of five
people who move into" a tree house,
each seeking in his loneliness some
voice in the void and ttie effect
their stay in the tree house has on
their lives. They all emerge with a
greater realization not only of
themselves but of the nature of hu-
man relationships. Capote stresses
ttie value of one's subjective life
and the necessity of sympathy from
others. This may sound rather ba-
nal ljut it is due to simplification
which necessarily strips away all
the overtones. However the novel is
not as serious as the theme may
suggest. Much is pure exuberant
fun and satire. Capote has a keen
awareness of the incongruous. But
constantly, the comedy is coloured
iby the pathos inherent in the im-
derlying theme, a pathos always im-
plicit, never exaggerated or maud-
lin. The total effect of the Grass
Harp is Khat of Moliere's Le Misan-
thrope, the elusive mood of the
tragic-comic.
CapotC' is, to nsc a phrase that
hae been bandied about and mis-
applied too often, a poet In prose.
It is a poet's world he conjures up—
out of this sphere, strange, whimsi-
cal, a world inhabited by odd cliar-
acters, Dickensian in their grotes-
queness and chemical purity. He
has a finely attunen ear lor verbal
music and rhythm. Perhaps what is
most attractive about his style is
the use of imagerj' as a structural
device. Throughout the Crass Harp,
there is an effortless flow of fresh
images, drawn from one restricted
side of experience, thus producing
a firm, even texture. The images
are new. witty, and clever, but it is
not that demanding type of clever-
ness that attempts to squeeze cut a
grunting recogniion. Two unusual
and distant things are suddenly
conjoined, gir.ng the reader that
indescribable pleasure of sudden
illusnination. At clima:tic points In
the novel, where, in llie exposition
of complex subjective slates, direct
de-si-ription would be completely m-
adequate. Capote reverts to the
style of the imayistic poets, em-
ploying extended images to convey
his concepts as well as the emo'
tion.

Eliot Needs Attention
To Evaluate Pedestal
THE T. S. ELtOT MYTH by R. H. Rob-
bini. Thos. Nelson, 1951.
T. S. Eliot presents a problem
which needs attention from every-
one interested In the position of a
writer in society. Here we have a
poet whose reputation was estab-
lished in the twenties and ^o has
subsequently turned to Anglo-
Catholicism and devoted the major
part of his writing to the interests
of this faction.
If Eliot held a minor position In
public life. Prof. Hobbins would,
not be as interested as he is in
attacking Ehot's position, but Rob-
I no one has been as thorough M
I Prof. Bobbins is in tracing ihes«
j manifestations in Eliot's writing.
The great charge made against
I Eliot, however, is that of what
Prof. Robblns calls anti-Human-
ism. And here it is that we run into
the fundamental divergence of
opinion which make it impossible
for a person like Robblris to toler-
ate Eliot, w for Eliot to tak«
' Robbins' accusations seriously.
I When Eliot says, "I do not mean
I that our times are particularly cor-
j rupt; all times are corrupt," and
"I doubt very much whether what
bins feels that Ehot's influence is , i am saying can convey very mucli
too wide, and the obscurity of his ; to anyone for whom the doctrina

Basket Blues
JLase In U.S.
The Basketball Blues continued their losing streak in
games with American Colleges over the holidays, gomg down
before the Rochester U. squad 89-45 before Chnstmas. and
dropped games to Buffalo State Teachers and Alfred last
Friday and Saturday.
' One good thing came about In
Jhe match at Rochester, at least
—the bucket men started scoring.
Bud Natanson scored 13 and his
6Ub Ray Monnot got 9. The
team's biggest threat last year
was Natanson under the hoop;
anytime last year when he scor-
ed less than 18 points, he was hav-
ing a bad night. Previous to the
game at Rochester last month, a
scoring punch from the keyhole
wets generally lacking.
( As for the rest ol the team that
Bight, the hours at the express of-
fice must be pretty tough. No-
body else could find the hoop more
than twice, and Rochester show-
ed no mercy.
I The games at Buffalo State and
Alfred were played without either
^Natanson or Monnot, who are busy
writing exams. The team did not
Jare too badly considering that the
fieight of these two men (67" and
6'6" respectively) Is very much
.4epended on In the Blues' style of
(play. The other tall men. . Ix)u
ftiukenda and Art Blnnlngton. both
letf whom have come along slowly
19iis year, filled the gap very well.
Xukenda was top scorer against
-Buffalo with 14 points, and Bln-
Jilngton was hlgliest scorer the
ollowing night with 12 points.
Toronto had the score tied at
Buffirlo 49-49 at the end of regu-
lation time, but lost out In over-
time 54-51. At Alfred, which claims
to have the best team in their his-
tory, the Blues were butchered
6845.
Though this was the team's only
game with Alfred, they have home
games with Buffalo State and Ro-
chester next February in which
to make up these losses. Alfred
beat Rochester earlier in the sea-
son, and Rochester beat Colgate,
so the Blues' opposition is not get-
ting any worse as the season goes
on.
Bob Masterson and Dalt Wlwte
were down in Buffalo last night,
scouting the Buffalo - Niagara
game. The Blues have played
both these teams, and play a re-
turn game with Buffalo next
month.
The tfim takes on aasier op-
position this Saturday in Curry
College, in t*e first Athletic Night
of the year. McGill beat Curry
59-46 last month.

In a rough but exciting basket-
ball game yesterday UC Jumors
whipped Jr. Vic 34-18. Although
the score was only 22-16 for the
winners at the end of the second
period a power-packed finish left
them tar out in front.
A total of twenty-one personals
and five technicals were called
durmg the game: Herb Noble of
UC fouled out early in the seoona
period and several others were
ready to follow him by the final
whistle.
Lionel Schipper was the top

Bad Nnbuuvn has been the Blues'
iop scorer so far, with 85 points in
Beven games. Hb 36^ percent shoot-
tn^ average ia ftloo tops for the
team, aa are his 35 field goals and
his 29 tree throw attempts.
A second period rush that netted
them five goals gave Sr. Vic a 7-1
triumph over Sr. Meds ia noon-
hour hockey yesterday. Paced by
Wally Stothera* hat trick., the Vic-
sters outclassed their opponents
completely and it wasn't until the
dying moments of the game that
the doctors were able to get the
puck past Sturgess in the 'Vic 'goal.
Marshall added a pair ol markers
and Andrews and Walton had
singletons. Captain McGiUvary
scored the only goal for Meds.
TTie first chapter was scrambly
but fast with the Scarlet and Gold
having at least a territorial edge.
Wally Stothers opened the scoring
at the six-minute mark when he
gathered In Machln's pass. Varga
of Meds drew the first penalty but
Vic could do no better than hit the
post The passing was not very
harp but defensive play was
teady. Organized attaclts were
lacking on both sides and fourteen
minutes went by before Meds got
a shot on goal. Andrews put Vic
two ahead on a pass from Penning
in the last seconds of the frame.
Two early goals salted the con-
test away in the second frame and
they added three more later on for
good measure. A sustained attack
in the opening minutes resulted in
a goal for Marshall as he batted
in Littlejohn's reboimd. At 3 :30
Stothers counted with Fenning
malting the play. Eight minutes
later. Wally completed his hat
trick, shooting Gibson's rebound
into an empty net, Woolton of Vic
and Longo of Meds engaged in a
wrestling match and went off.
They were Joined in the sin bin by
Zatelney for holding. Marshall and
Walton had goals back to back to
complete live scoring for Vic. In
the dying seconds, McGlUvary
raced up the Ice to net Meds' only
goal and spoil Sturgess' shutout.
The women's intramural hookey
league laced-oU yesterday, when
St. Hildas n's took. POT. 3-2, in a
noon-hour fracas at Varsity arena.
The Saints chalked up an early
lead, netting two to POT'S one goal
at the end of the first period. Phy-
eios evened the score in the second
frame but could not keep the puck
out of their end and St. Hildas
banged the disc home to take top
spot again. The third period saw
POT try for a tying goal with Mary
Ijou Lyons just missing repeatedly
and the Saints' defence carried the
game through to the end.
Heather Maci*ierson was out-
standing for the winners netting
two goals with Joan Sterling sink-
ing the third. Molly Bark and Mary
Bowden shared the honours lor
POT.
St Hildas I's won their first game
with UC I's by default.

game. Trinity forged ahead lO-l in
the first stanza but saw their lead ;
fall under a strong Vic offensive in
the second period. In the last
period Vic tlireatened at times to
make the game a run-away.
Bruce Rogers was the outstanding
player on the floor as he swished
10 for the winners. The other Vic
points were spread among the rest
of the players which indicates the
Vicsters have a well balanced out-
fit,
Gord Montlzambert with 6 and
Dave Moore with 5 led the losers
in, a good effort. Although both
teams were hitting the hoops for
long range they were very ineffec-
tivo under the basket.
Senior Meds vs. Senior UC
Senior Meds took control of their
scheduled league fixture against
the UC Seniors right from the
opening whistle and came out on
the top of a 30-17 decision that
saw some rugged play Mid ample
free throws. The Doctm-s had their
shooting eyes pretty well tuned up,
and scored 15 points in the first
stanza without the Redmen notch-
ing a single counter.
UC finally woke up to the fact
that it was in the middle of a
basketball game onoe the second
stanza got under way, and although
they only outecored the Medsmen
by a single point from there on,
they at least prevented the contest
from turning into a complete route.
The Doctors managed to connect
on sis' free throws out of ten
tries, UC made four out of eight
foul shots good for the point. High
scorer for the Medsmen was Smith
with 6 poinis while teammates
Coopersmith, Gamble and Hlrano
each notched 5 points. GUck and
Housely netted three points apiece
for the losers.
Last year's Intramural champs,
the UC squad wiil have to do a lot
of work to come up to the form
that won the pennant for them last
season.

with Michigan at Ann Arbor the
week-esnd before the Christmas
holidays, December 14 and 15.
They dropped tiie first 4-1 to the
powerful Wolverines, all but three
of whom are Canadians. The
Blues, who always go dawa to
Ann Arbor on this now-tradltlonal
series minus a few of their regular
personnel, also kept up a solid tra-
dition by having a bad night the
first game.
The next night the Blue and
White came a little closer but still
emerged on the wrong side of a
6-4 decision. Red Stephens, Al
Conboy. Don Rope. Jack Whel-
drake and Joe Kane shared Var-
sity's scoring honours.
About half the team went up to
Port William to play as a Var-
sity-Queen's combine. Sight
Queen's players and seven Bhies
comprised southeni Ontario's col-
lege team, while Port Arthur and
Port William combined lor the
north . The soutbernerB dron?ed
both games, the first by a narrow
8-7 margin and the second by &-5.
Don Rope led the Queen's-Varslty
combines with a hat trick the first
olght. Al Conboy also scored tiiree
goals over the two nights while
Wtaeldrake, Adams, sod MacKen-
zie added singles. Keenleyside,

Queen's marksmen.

f doubt was decided and gone the play skipped
ightlv through all the routine bedroom-farce jokes
Ind .^ituptions. The end came with the boy and
g,rl in the only believahle scene in the play,
counting their prospective family— to see what it
would cost to get them all up to the top of the
Empire State Building— a childish thing to do. but
it had the redeeming quality of being in keefung
with the characters, and the rest of the play
generally.
Hiram Shecraan, who played the rich old lecher,
had the dubious honor of taking the last eurtain-
call. Supposing the applause had stoj^jed; he was
lucky that Toronto has learned politeness these
last few days. If the straight-faced, monotonous,
but kindly and gentle, southern drawl that Mr,
Sherman used in every situation and for some
often very witty lines, is an example of the actor's
art. then I advocate closli^ the tJieatres and
promoting circuses.
Fortunately for us there were others fcn the
cast. James Young, the nice young moral and up-
right architect who starts the whole thing by
picking up the "professional virgin" Patty O'Neill,
gives a competent although far from 'outstanding
performance.
It is to Marcla Henderson, the silly, talkative
girl, that most of the credit must go for making
THE MOON IS BLUE even slightly believable.
Not only was she stronger and more commanding
than either of the men, but she tried to bring
the play down to its proper human level from
the heights of "sex for sex' sake". She did not try
to look devastatingly pretty but attracted solely
by her personality. She Is much younger and pre-
sumably less experienced than most professional
actors, but I would far rather see such honest
attempts than all the southern drawls south of the
Mason-Dixon,
A final word to the wise: last Monday I was
blessed with both free tickets and a car. Without
both, and I say this wittiout reservation, I would
have to be very tired of life before I would accept
THE MOON IS BLUE as a substitute for a good
lecture — and I hate lectures.
UC Singers In Concert
Four Long Weeks Ago
The UC Winter Concert ot last Dec. 13 was. on the whole, a thing of
little distinction. The almost empty theatre may not have encouraged
heights of performance, but there is little to justify the presentation
of something obviously unfinished to a paying audience.
The UniversitT Cofi«ge sin-ers. for example, were very weak in malt
voices, and did not sing well either in sections or as an over-al! groupi
Their words were usually hard to make out, and their rendering of all-
too familiar Christmas carols not half as interesting as William RotMn-
son's excellent piano accompaniment. Conductor Graham Jackson's lad
of st-age-presence was painfully apparent at the end of each numbo-.
Richard Kountz's 'The Sleigh" was cute, but few of the otho
offerings merited much attention. No doubt it was fun singing together,
and one's powers of music appreciation are unquestionably sharpened
by such an experience. But the public need not be told that this 1«
worthwhile musical fare.
Similarly, Miss Jime Rowat has a trained,, if not mellowed, soprano
voice. And her performance was in no way helped by the loud, fussy,
and careless accompaniment of Graham Jackson. Yet her uncertainty in
the upper register and her struggles to meet demands as yet excseding
her grasp should not have been brought upon the merciless boards of the
Hart House stage.
Again. Walter Babiak's viola and violin playing did not «em to
exploit the tonal or technical possibilities of the instruments. His unin-
spired competence in Caesar FYanck's "Sonata for Violin and Piano" was
easily outshone — in fact, almost drowned out — by the impressive piano
work of James Momanamy.
The redeeming it«m of this concert was the playing of Mi<^ Naomi
Socol. Her stage-presence was refreshing, and her control of the piano,
unmistakable. Chopin's "Scherzo In B flat Minor" was full of convincing
fire, though at times the base seemed to drown out whatever the right
hand was doing. For a deserved encore, Miss Socol played an Israeli
'Shepherd Dance,-

larly and instinctively. Their
stereotyped pattern is repeated in
an uncanny manner through suc-
ceeding generations. Studies in-
volving the banding of waterfowl
in North America have shown they
they adhere closely to their com-
plex ancestral migration routes of
which there are four main path-
ways. These are along the Atlantic
and Pacific Coasts, centrally, and
following the Mississippi River net-
work.
Describing' these migratory Jour-
neys is easy, but explaining them
is another matter. A quest for food
cannot be the answer, for if this
were so, in:e?tr eaters would remain
all year in the warm lands where
their food is plentiful. It may be
that some ancient cause has im-
planted this migratcffy urge within
a species. One theory is that ages
ago, birds were driven south by tiie
desolation caused by the advanc-
ing polar ice cap. At its recession
they returned to their northern
hCHnes, but in some unexplained
manner, an Instinct or hereditary
pattern had become part of them.
The result is their relentless un-
learned life of commuting.
And they do it without white ana
bands.

■ ThrQUgh a long and very stormy his-
tory, trade unions have established their
right to use the strike as a last resort in
gaining their legitimate ends Today, few
would seriously question that right. Many
will arjue that the privilege is often
atoused— they do so with some justifica-
tion. But then, privileges of one sort or
another are constantly abused: that alone
Is hardly enough to bring about their re-
vocation.
We graJit peoDle the right of fr«e
*peech without first requiring them, to
•how that they can speak sensibly.
f In the case of public utilities, however,
ft strike assumes tremendous importance.
Inevitably and immediately, a vast num-
ber of people are affected. For that reason,
additional discretion must be exercised by
both the management and the union con-
cerned to avoid strikes, It can fairly be
•aid that the TTc and ite employees have
not made a habit of presenting their in-
ternal problems to the public via a strike
—in the past.
' Whether or not the present strike Is
Justifiable is an open question. Certainly
the union could be criticized for the ir-
»espon.slble way in which the strike was
foisted upon the public. But the strength
•f their case in relaUon to their employ-
er's is not at all clear.
I! Pot example, the TTC. In their full page
*dd which has 'been appearing in the daily
^newspapers, claim that the additional
•ost of the union's demands would ex-
teed $7,000,000 per annum. On the other
hand, union spokesman James Robertson
IclaLms that this flg^u^ is based on the
M49 contract rate and that there has
been a 16 cents an hour cost of Uving
plus some fringe benefits.
? Again, the TTC claims that the total
package of union demands amounts to 57
cents per hour. Mr. Robertson says that
nhe whole package would amount only
•o 16.26 cents per hour."
The TTC has stated that the granting
of union demands "would mean an im-
mediate increase to a flat 10 cent fare.
Mr. Robertson says emphatically "no". He
claims that "most of the money from a
fare increase would go for other pui-poses
than paying us higher wages and bene-
fits". In short, the subway.
, Determining the relative merits of un-
ion and company arguments is about as
difficult as judging the relative weights
of tennis balls in fUght. It cannot be done
expertly by the spectators, but will have
to be considered by an impartial board.
This, of course, should be done quickly,
before some of the more excitable ele-
ments of the public succeed in calling in
the armj;. At present, the public is hap-
pily engaged in using their thumbs; some
attttnpt at settlement should be made
before everyone becomes either enraged
or adjusted to the new situation.
Here again the TTC and union leaders
are at logger heads. The TTC refuses to
mediate; the union wiU not agree to ar-
bitrate. It was the TTC and not the union
which refused to accept Mayor Lamport's
offer to mediate. In view of Mayor Lam-
port's statement —
After examining the TTC balance
sheet I cannot see that there is any
possibility of increasing the TTC of-
fer without increasing fares, and I
will not support any move that
would increase fares,
the TTC's refusal seems out of place.
Some agreement as to a board of ar-
bitration or preferably mediation is im-
mediately necessary. For. as the Detroit
Strilse seemed tq prove, it is the street
car company, and its employees, which
wUl suffer the most from a prolonged
strike.

leaving it in a traU of dust. To some ex-
tent this may happen to the prostrate TTC
and frienda.
Streetcar University?
f The University of Toronto has some-
tknes been called a "streetcar uruversity".
IPor the present, however, the title with
all its odious implications will have to be
'dropped. The tramlessness of the city has
|t>een visit^l upon us.
' But students, like the citizenry in gen-
ial, have been taking the matter very
much in their stride — even to the point
af being strike -happy. There is, of course,
nothing quite like a crisis to foster the
niusion of independence, to boost the ur-
ban ego. Possibly, it Is the last remnant
•f the pioneer spirit that makte almost
•veryone enjoy being thrown back on his
ipwn resources — occasionally, at least.
J The present emergency is still in its
♦ttillating stage. Bach morning provides
full measure of enjoyment for the hope-
fal pedestrian, if not for motorist. No
longer does transporttation mean the
weary plodding to bus and streetcar line-
up. No longer is it necessary to fight the
good nght against the red rockets and
their inhabitants.
There are tricks to the new trade of
transportation. "The Telegram" has
thoughtfully provided little pink PI EASE
squares, for the diUgent to paste on card-
board. Then, some play the viclim with a
vengeance and ostentatiously shove white
armbands into the face of a passing car.
And then, there is always the thumb.
Possibly, it Is the motorist, for all his
co-opera tlveness and kindness, to the less
fortunate, that suffers most from the
strike. The recent traffic Jams'-assumed
such an immensity that the days of the
TTC seemed like something out of the
Golden Age. The driver's paradise of tram
free streets has not been all that could be
hoped. In fact, the results seem to i)rove
that the essence of (paradise lies in its ex-
cluslvenass.
But tomorrow may be better.
What is CUP? Varsity News Editor Ian Mon-
tagnes describes the org^anization, and some of Ha
potentialities, as well as limitations.
A lot of space in today's paper is filled
with news about the Canadian University
Press. It seems CUP has awarded a trophy
to The Varsity, that CUP is sponsoring
a contest for cartoonists and photog-
raphers, that CUP has something to say
about responsibility of student news-
papers. This is fine for The Varsity, the
students, and freedom of the press. But
the question still remains: what is CUP?
Canadian University Press can be — and
too often is — glibly described as a press
association of Canadian campus news-
papers— a miniature Associated Press.
Canadian Press, Reuters, or what have
you. But there is an essential difference:
Thehig news agencies are closely linked by
teletypes, big money, and a large central
bureaux; CUP is held together by the far
more intangible bonds of the friendships
which grow up between students pursu-
ing the same interests. But more of this
later.
The organization dates back 14 years —
to New Year's Day. 1938, when the editors
of 12 campus papers met in Winnipeg
to discuss an ambition they had held
for .some time: the establishment of a
nation-wide university news agency. For
two years the fledgling agency was under
the wing of the National Federation of
Canadian University Students. After that
period of incubation it took wings and
became an autonomous organization.
Since then it has grown to include 20
newspapers, and to extend its services
far beyond the basic one of news ex-
change. Its surveys^ (such as the recent
ones on university arts and morals) try
to present a Dominion-wide picture of
campus life. It awards trophies to the
best newspapers in the various circulation
classes. The recent conference at Hamil-
ton revived the defunct picture exchange
service. And possibly most significant of
all, planned a Geries of contests which
will bring the benefits of CUP directly to
the students.
This is what CUP does. But who belongs
to it? and how does it function? The
member papers stretch from the Ubyssey
on the west coast, to the Dalhousie Ga-
zette in the east. They range in mmiber
from the 10.000 daUy circulation of Tb«
Varsity, all the way down to the 1,600
weekly circulation of the Xaverian, at'st,
Francis Xavier College. Antigonish, Nova
Scotia. Some papers consider interna-
tional news as important; others play up
local dances with big pictures and vari-
colored headlines. Some of the editors
are young and inexperienced; others are
veteran newsmen who have come back to
college for a few years. The approach of
every newspaper Offers from eveiv
one, due to individual charactp ■
the editor, the paper's traditi
versity.

what holds this wide-spread diverse ^

of other campi is a strong coheave T
not the strongest; even on those pape"'
which use it most, CUP material is stni
regarded as "filler items". Par more im
portant are the common interests held b
the editors of student newspapers acroa
the country. T'he annual conferences con

ganization it is true. But most Important

In the flesh, and by adding to friendships
already made in print and in the maj

keeps it going.
In the basic purpose of news ext__.
CUP is doing good work, and is still "prj^
gressing. in another — and possibly more
important — aim, it has not met with .sucq
marked success. Its founders had hopsj
to see it "consolidating student opinion
and abolishing sectionalism". But the or-
ganization itself stUl lacks a natioiij]
outlook, and regionalism is strong. This
was graphically illustrated at the Hamil-
ton conference in the nominations for tha
executive papers and honorary president
"We have never had a French- Canadian
honorary president", remarked one dele-
gate. "Although the executive paper lai
been in the central region several time.;,
it has never been down east," remarked
another. And still a third, supporting thi
University of Montreal as the executive
paper, exclaimed. "There has never been
a French-Canadian executive. This is
a favor we ask, it is only Justice!" Aj
long as these voices are heard at COT
conferences, the true purpose of CU?
cannot be achieved. Regionalism can onlf
breed dissension, it cannot bring unity
into a national organization.
It is was on this gioomy note that tJis
conference closed. OUP now stands in *
precarious position. This conference madi
decisions which can greatly stren?t!iea
and extend its services. But should sec-
tionalism and distrust continue, CUP can
only remain as an easy supply of fiUeri

Debate Fees System's Merits
In Bill On University Finances
The first Mock Parliament of the
il-52 session will be held to-
!ht in the Legislative Assembly
the Parliament Buildings. It will
Jin at 8:00 p.m. sharp, and will
Q until 10:30, when it is ex-
cted the discussion on the two
"Ills will be ended.
The main bill of the night which
111 be brought up after the one on
K much discussed Independent
^uestion will be one to increase
overnment aid to universities. This
an Act being brought in by the
icDonald-Cartler Club for the
ftablishment of a University
'•^nts Board for the Increase of
fl^ernment Bursaries for higher
education." Their bill provides for
the setting up and staffing of the
Board, the extension of funds for
Uniifersities, and a stipulation that
no control be exercised by the Fed-
eral or (Provincial Governments
concerned.
The Liberal amendment provides
for the elimination of the Fees
System, substituting academic
qualifications as entrance require-
ments for University. They state
that the Government must pay all
fees, and provide bursaries for
those requiring assistance. Copies
of the complete Act, and the com-
plete Amendments will be available
at the Mock Parliament.

"We want to know if there is
sufficient provision made for stu-
dents who may have difficulty in
financing their education." he
said. Victoria College has its
own Bursary fund.
"Is residence life a help in
study?" is another question.
There are two points of view, one
the proximity to the University as
an aid to study and two. that there
are too many distractions. Dean
Bennet said. "We wish to find
out to which of these views the
majority of students subscribe."
"Some facetious answers are to
be expected." be added, "but we
hope that most students will an-
swer the questionnaire carefully
and conscientiously."
The questionnaire went on to
ask "How"^ many hours do you
study? and is your attendance at
classes rare?" "iHow many hours
sleep do you average per night?
Said David Fry, Prime Minister
of the Mock Parliament, in stat-
ing his case for the bill. "We feel
very strongly tliat the University
requires additional government
support. At the same time increas-
ed Government aid should not
bring increased Government con-
trol," he said. "We feel that a
University education should be
neither free nor prohibitive."
John Medcoff, leader of the of-
ficial opposition, stated in support
of the amendment that though
the Liberals thought the Tory
measure a step in the right direc-
tion, it still ignored one of the most
basic problems of the University
educational system.
"The test of university admis
sion 'should be by academic profi'
ciency, not by ability to pay. Abil
iby. not financial position should
govern admission to University;
DVA has shown the way, and our
party wishes to see its benefit con
tinued."

NOTSURE
Must Approve Bill
Ere Independents
Can Sit or Speak
In again, out again. That describes the plight of the twc
Independent members of the Mock Parliament to be held
tonight.
Never officially recognized before the election, at first
their votes were counted as spoiled ballots. Then a change
of heart on the part of the Political Science Club, which
runs the Parliament — and headlines aimounced they would
be included. Now it looks as if they may be out after all.
Meanwhile, the Independent members (if they really are
members) charge that the whole issue of their recognition
is being made into a cheap political issue, and add, "any
remarks made about it at the Parliament will probably de-
scend into the field of vilification of personalities."
As matters stand now, whether or not they are to have
seats will be decided in a minor bill at the opening of the
Parliament. The bill will be proposed by the Progressive
I Conservative Government, which holds 36 seats in the 90-
I seat legislature.
The Liberals — -who are the only party to officially
oppose the seating of the Independents — have 23 seats. And
there are some rumors of a split in the ranks of the Liberals.
The CCF — with 22 seats — is the big question mark which
may swing the issue one way or the other. Many observers
feel the Independents will gain their seats.
The Independent Party came into being the day before
the elections last month, after a letter to The Varsity from
George Brigden and Vern Turner, both IV UC. Their party
polled 35 votes in the election — enough to win them two
seats. At first their ballots were going to be counted as
spoiled — but they pleaded their case and won.
All four political parties are reported to have agreed in a
meeting of the Mock Parliament Committee to support a
motion recognizing the Independents. This motion was to
have been moved by the Progressive Conservative Leader
David Fry, and seconded by opposition Leader John Medcof.
In a letter to the editor today, Medcof asserts that at no
time did the Liberals support the Independent recognition.
Now he has insisted on passage of a bill before they get their
seats, since the move will affect the constitution of the mock
Parliament.
The Independents blame the change from a simple mo-
tion to a bilfon "certain interests that fear frank and non-
party criticism on the floor of the House." And they said,
"By making a hill out of the original motion, the parties
have just generously agreed to give each other more time to
spout the usual line."
Medcof has decided to oppose the seating of the Indepen-
dents because they failed to get recognition before the elec-
tion. "If they enter by the regular legal means, getting recog-
nition at Simcoe Hall, they are welcome," he said.
Prime Minister David Fry said his party recognizes that
university education leads many people to a position of
political independence which they feel morally obliged to
accept, and that a Mock Parliament is not representative
without them. '
UC Singers Stalled
By Financial Flop
The l>ad breaks tlie University
College Mxisic Club got last term
have left it in a very bad financial
position, stated club president Bill
KotchefE yesterday. A concert of
Christmas carols at Hart Hoxise at
ttie end of last term drew a very
poor crowd, and went badly in the
hole. Conflicting activities, especial-
ly the Blue and White Christmas
tree, also at Hart House, the same
night, are blamed for the lack of
attendance.
The Music Club is particularly
unfortunate in having to pay for
three nights at Hart House at sev-
enty-five dollars a night, Kotcheff
felt. The club's aimual operetta
was cancelled by tlie UC Ldt who
felt the enterprise was financially
unsound, but the Board of Syndics
at Hart House Ls holding the Club
reapooslhte for the three oJ^U »i
Hart House reserved for the oper*
etta.
One of these nights was sold to
Daffydil for $25 and a second wa«
occupied witn the financially un-
successful concert. The total loss on
these three n^hts is expected to
run about $150.
The future of the 3V^lc Club
rests with the UO Lit, which previ-
ously threatened to disband it next
year in the event of a deficit thU
year. They, however, have indi-
cated their Intention to sirpport the
club. "The sins of the fathers ahall
not be visited on the children," said
Dave Rose, Ut president. The club
will continue with its activities
notably the UC Singers, this year
and will not be expected to maM
up the deficit next year, ae pw**»
ously threatened.

Aging Residency
On the first day of tiie SpiiBg
term, last Monday, a few unwary
students went to their history lec-
ture at historic old Baldwin House
and found it forsaken. A large
sign posted near the entrance
stated that the History Depart-
ment had moved to the new Bald-
win House located at the corner
of Queen's Park Crescent and
Hoskin Avenue. The renovated
building was formerly known as
Holwood House, the men's resi-
dence of University College.
"I was told about the change last
Pall." said one student, "but I
didn't tJiink it would be so soon,"
Last Spring an announcement is-
sued by Simcoe Hall about the pro-
posed change said it was uncer-
tain when the renovations would
begin due to the high cost of con-
struction.
"It's a trifle sanitary, and a
little pretty too." said M. R.
Powicke of the History Depart-
ment about the new Baldwin*
House. 'The lighting is brilliant
and you can see every word you
write." he added.
The School of Slavic Studies will
be sharmg the new Baldwin House
with the Department of History
but have not as yet nloved into
the building. Six rooms in the
building will be used by the Scbo(d
of Slavic Studies as offices for the
staff members and the two lecture
rooms will be shared by the two
departments. "We have been look-
ing forward to permanent quarters
for the last five years." said the
chairman of the Slavics depart-
ment, B. E. Shore.
or 42 students polled on the
campus Monday, none knew of the
pressed move of the School of
Slavic Studies and 30 didn't know
that the History department had
moved. Fourteen of these students

B result ot the criticism, a parliamentary committee
Investigated CBC policy.
The Varsity attacked thJLs criticism, on t?he
grounds that It was an attempt to limit free speech.
The Nov. 16 editorial also commented that the
complaints about speeches "indicate the fear of an
liifliientiaJ element of Chrtsblans of hearing other
Viewpoints."
The Fulcrum traces the progress ot the dispute,
which involved several letters to tihe editor and
one editorial reply, in an article which begins. "On
November 25. under a crude cartoon of a bathukol-
plaii miss. The Varsity . . .". A search in one of bhe
larger dictionaries finally revealed **bathukolplan"
as meaning "deep -bosomed.**
In tKe open letter to CathoUca studying at secu-
Ur colleges, associate editor Laurence Moleski re-
marks, "Of course you know God exists. And you
know that many other things are not merely pos-
sible or probable. You know that they are, because
there is such a thing as absolute truth. . . . But
although these facts are known to you, tJhousands
; believed such programs ahould not be broad-
of your brother students and many of your profes-
sors are Ignorant of them "
The letter contin-
ues that while these
persons can "close
their ears to the
Church and Christ-
j ■ ian leachais", they
^Ik "A jM cannot e s c a p e the
^^■kW Catholic s t u d e n t
j^|B| with whom they eat

\^ .^fS^'^' known to
^0f^t^- ( ' 1 your fellow st^dent.^,
I, ™ must bs made kno wn
by you. Their ulti-
mate happiness is in
your hands."
In an article en-
titled "God In Education'*, The Fulcrum's Editor-
in-Chief. Philip Nicolaides, states that for the
Catholic an education without religion Ls not only
pedagogically unsound; it is radically defective.
He also says secular education (under the guise
of academic freedom* permits professors to overtly
attack or covertly undermine Christianity and even
theism.
NIcoIaides urges that "Christians and Jaws alike
insist that the secular institutions clean house by
banning professors whose teachings contravene the
natural law as summed up in the Decalogue, and
who oppose the fundamental doctrines of natural
religion."
In an article on atheism and existentialism, an-
other student remarks (concerning existentialism')
"Uie attention gained by this philosophy not a
sign In favor of the mental or moral equilibrium
of contemporaneous society."
Another article goes on to say, "the dissemina-
tion of such destructive ideas (as those expressed
by Hoyle) Ls simply the wildest folly; so too is
the fatuous Idea that such beliefs do no harm as
long as freedom and time are granted to other
views." In a country where the greater part of
the population gets no higher education, it is
asking too much of the common man to separate
truth and falsehood in these discussions, the article
concludes.

'"The premier responsibility of a
univeiaicy newspaper is to the siai-
dent b^dy, and only ajter tliat to

it and to the university administra-
tion"— A as the unanimoas opinion
of the representatives of the Canal
dian university new.'.paijers at the
Canadian Universicy Press confer-
ence held over the holidays.
The motion was brought up at a
round-table di.^ciissiou on various
aspects of (lie university news-
paper. Baibara McNutt, editor of
the Argasy Weekly at Mount Alli-
son University, said that the ad-
mini.itration <,f the University is not
God and that the university paper
should remember this. She fylt tliat
the papers should provide con-stmc-
tive criticism, however, and not Just
pan the administration,
Luc Larivee from the University
of Montreal said that aulhoriiy is
needed in any v;niversity or society,
and that Ls wiiy the paper is al-
way.>i under authority. He felt that
the best thiivs Ls for the university
newspaper to be completely Inde-
pendent witti wide scope so that
once the paper crosses these "bor-
ders," the staff &in be removed.
Dave Crier from McGill said that
most of the editors present would
agree that it is to the best intere^it
of students to have some orgai
that can criticize the student coun-
cil and be both unbiased and ob-
jective.
Denis Bousquet. editor of l<
Quartier Latin at Montreal, said
that t*'.e newspaper should present
the opini.^ns of the students. Tliis,
he said, can be (^>tained by taking
the directives of the stxident council
since they r(Sj}resent the students.
Another Montrealer, Luc Larivee.
added that while ttie university pa-
per should tell the students what
the council is doing, opinions ana
editorials should follow the council,
Dong Fitch from the University
of Alberta Gateway said that this

Montreal (CUP) — In keeping
I with a report on student activities
ftt McGlll University here, the
McGill Daily will be published only
Jour times a week this term.
The new policy was announced
In the last issue of the undergradu-
ate paper.
The Managine Board of the
paper announced that the Monday
Issue would be cut. The report on
student activities was passed by
the McGill Student? Executive
Council last year.
The deadline for entries for the
annual literary issue of The Var-
slty has been extended one week
to Friday. Dec. 17, Managing Edi-
tor Elinor Strangways announc-
ed yesterday. She added that the
extension was due to "a new low"
in the number of entries.
The Literary issue of The Var-
sity has been published annually
for the last several years as an
outlet for creative writers on the
campus supplementary to the
meagerly-read crop of college
magazines. Prizes are awarded
for the best entries in the fields
of light verse, serious verse, short
stories, essays on any topic, chos-
en by the writer, and photo-
graphs. Said Editor-in-Chief Bar-
bara Browne, "We are giving a
chance for the creative Instincts
of this university^ to manifest
themselves. We hope that there
are some whose abilities rise
above fly-by-night exhibitionism."
All entries will be criticized and
prizes awarded by competent
judges, whose names will be an-
nounced in a future issue of The
Varsity. The literary issue it-
self should be published early In
February, the intervening time be-
ing needed for the judging. Man-
aging Editor Strangways said.

ONE-ACT PLAYS
Some Careless
Others Skillful
The five one-act plays produced on Monday and
Tuesday at Hart House varied greatly both in sub-
ject matter and merit.
In Everj'bodj's Husbajid, Giltoert Cannan has
written the ultimate in the Mother-of-the-Bride
school of fantasy. In an effort to mask the absence
of thought, Mr. Cannan has heaped cliohe upon
cliche and thrown in four generations of assorted
brides and mothers. In a burst ol generosity, he
has also seen fit to add a brief epilogue ending
in the classic line: "It was only a dream". -
This littlB tragedy was given a fittingly tragic
production by the Royal Conservatory Eh-ama De-
partment under the direction of Robert MacLeod.
Inadequate lighting, unsuccessful incidental music
and a motley coliecLion of furniture all contributed
to a general atmosphere of depression.
As the dreaming bride, Margaret Griffin seemed
insincere and was often inaudible, while of her
elders only Dorothy Jones achieved any .-success
in the affectation of age. Indeed, Annabelle Mc-
Gillvray. bo[h in make-up and acting, seemed more
a younger sister than the mother. The only man
present, Paul Wayne, was quite justified in his
obvious self-consciousness. Three of these players
appeared in the Conservatory's last play. It seems
more charitable to remember them only for that,
Of the play itseU: it was only a night-mare.
Unable to secure rights to Victoria Rcglna,
Trinity substituted on old stand-by. The Boor by
Anton Chekov. As the protagonists in this verbal
battle James Armour and Juliana Gianelli gave
polished performances. Playing to a small snowy
audience they managed to display a sound comic
sense, although the effect might have been height-
ened if director Martin Hunter had maintained
a faster pace.
For How He Lied to Her Husband. Victoria
provided an outstanding set and peopled it with
competent players. While the young lover was per-
haps more Pennington than Shavian, he was con-
sistently dslichtful. Jo Shone as the petulant but
practical woman and James Turnbull as her poni-
pous "Kecond-rate hea\-j--weight"' husband were
well cast and thoroughly successful. Etavid Peddie's
handling of the violence was most amusing.
The other two offerings were of a much older
period and deal with moral issues.
In Everyman, St. Michael's amateur theatre
entry, the eccent was laid upon the "amateur"
rather than the "theatre". This group has hit upon
a revolutionary approach in which the prompteT
speaks each line first. It is then echoed with con-
siderable uncertainty by one of sixteen unfortun-
ate souls, selec'.ed at random and forced onto the
stage. During a seemingly endless performance the
audience dwindled from a restless seventy-five to a
snickering fifty. Everyman at its best is a rather
dull play, and this is doubtless the reason that
none of the cast bothered to read it in advance.
Consequently, any remembered lines were spoken
without expression. Mary Lonnergan, as Five Wits
deserves special mention for her-Herculean effort
in learning her lines. Miss Lonnergan has used
the one-word-3t-a-time system of memorization
and delivery so that any conversions resulting from
her lengthy , theological exposition are likely to be
to athei^im rather than to Catholicism.
To Hugh Hood and Patricia McDonnough went
the sincere appreciation of the audienc** f
realization that their only hope lay in b
and their comic skiU. indeed, for sheer hn*'^'' 'ar^
quartet wearing shower-curtains all disnl Ihl
possibilities. As for the others — thosl ^'^^ ^ea!
reading did little better than thosp ^'^^
provised. "ho ^ '
The prompter unfortunately remain
mous. Although at times her speech with
distinct, her characterization was without\f ^'^ m

also unfortunately, is not anonvmous in ""^'J?

As Mcphitopkllis, Will Crichton was encased fa'
a most appropriate coat of make-up. But while
his voice and movements suggested death effective,
ly, he never seemed properly diabolical.

performance while Walter Stanwick appearc-rt w

whose Old Man was most unconvincing. The Scien

style.
One clown scene was retained. However, Thomai

CBC To Be Best Man
At Figaro's Marriage
CBC Wednesday Night on Jan. IB will be devoted entirely to a complete performance
of Mozart's comic opera, "The Marriage of Figaro". Nicholas Goldschmidt will conduct the
CBC Opera Orchestra and Chorus, and the singers, for the most part, are the same as those
who acted this opera on the stage of the Royal Alexandra last year. A good many people
have probably wondered why the CBC takes it upon itself to duplicate the efforts of the
Saturday afternoon series of opera broadcasts from New York. One obvious reason, of
course, is to give Canadi^^n singers a chance to sing opera in Canada and make money at it
— a laudable purpose, perhaps, but not a very convincing reason to switch to CBL next
Wednesday.
There are other reasons, though.
For one thing, unusual operas are
performed occasionaH;- (Puccini's
"Tui-andot" and Britten's "Albert
Herring;" for instance), and in line
with the OBCs policy, new and old
Canadian works also get a chance to
be heard (witness this season's
"Deirdje" by Healy Willan).
Finally, in the opinion of this
writer, the CBC's radio perform-
ances of some of the classical
operas, as well as of the modern
ones have sometimes been superior
to those coming from New York.
I am thinking now of the memor-
able performance of Britten's "Peter
— Hort House h'noto Dy r-ete Wade.
"Claws in. you cat!" Ivan Thornley-HaJl as Higfins deals with a
rebellious Eliza, played by Deborah TombuU in this scene from Shaw's
Pygmalion". The play opens an eight-night run at Hart House

On Saturday, January 19 at 4:30,
in the Museum Theatre^ the sec-
ond in this year's series will take
place. Geza de Kresz, violinist,
and Norah de Kresz pianist, will
play a program of duo-sonatas,
eluding two modern works.
Since the size of the audience is
not a major consideration in the
operations of the Toronto Music
Lovers' Club, unusual music i'*
often heard — music which norm-
ally attracts only musical connois-
seurs, and does not draw enough
of a crowd to make its production
profitable.
For the coming concert the de
Kreszs have chosen the Sonata In
E flat, Opus 18 by Richard Strauss
— a drastically modern-sounding
work in classical form, though now
over fifty years old. and anither
sonata by Patricia Blomfield Holt,
a contemporary composer. For
contrast, the other work on the
program will be the Violin Sonata
K. 454 by Mozart.
Geza de Kresz Is a native
Hungary, but has lived for many
years In Canada. He already h:\d
a Wide reputation as concert solo-
ist at the time of his coming to
Canada, and for a time he was
concert master of the Berlin Phil-

Inspector Calk
On This Week
In Hart House
When a girl is found dead by
her own hand, tiie wheels of action
are set in motion for the play AN
INSPECTOR CALLS by J. B.
Priestley, which is being presented
by the Victoria College Dramatic
Society this Thursday, Friday and
Saturday. Insp, Goole, a strange
and commanding police detective
sets to work to discover what drove
the girl to such a desperate step,
and he is led to the house of
George Birling, a prosperous manu-
facturer.
He interrupts the family at a
special dinner marking the en-
gagement of Mr. Birling's daugh-
ter Sheila to Gerald Croft, and he
proceeds to a cross-examination of
the whole family and the daugh-
ter's fiance. This questioning shows
that each of the people present
has contributed in some way to the
girl's suicide over the course of a
year or so.
We almost expect the inspector
to make several arrests, but of
course, there was no legal crime
involved. However, some of the
younger people realize that there
has been moral crime. When the
inspector leaves they argue with
their elders' stand of indifference.
Priestley's play Is suspensef ul.
gripping, and at all times bears
directly on the fact of moral crime,
that is beyond legal punishment.
Tickets for this production are
available at the Hart House , box-
office and in Alumni HrJI at Vic,

Grimes" two years ago, and of the

My opinion is not quite as ridicu-
lous as it may sound at first.
The Metropolitan Opera Company
— magnificent organization though
it is — has broadcast some less-
than-thrilling performances in the
last few years. After all, a Satur-
day matinee is only one perform-
ance in a whole week of opera to
them. To the young singers of the
CEC, on the other hand, the broad-
cast is the occasion of the year, and
frequently the results show the ex-
citement and tension of the per-
formance.
Also, performances broadcast from
the .'^tage are bound to suffer tech-
nically from the movements of the
a:tors. th? banging of the sta^-e
ci-ew, and the >otto vcc? comments
of the prompter. The CBC operas
are generally broadcast from Massey
Hall, and the brilliance and clarity
with which they come over the
air is astonishing.
Next Wednesday's Figaro will be
i James MUligan. SuL>anna, his
' fiancee, will be played by Marguer-
' ite Gignac, the Count Aimaviva by
Ernest Adams, and the Countess by
Louise Roy. Students will recall the
last three of these in their respec-
tive roles from the performance last
year at Hart House.
As at the Hart House concert and
at the Royal Alexandra, the opera
will be sung ii^the English trans-
lation of Edward J. 'Dent. This
translation is perhaps the mo^t
successful of long series of brilli-int
ones by this author. Without stick-
ing to a hard-and-fast literality, he
conveys the spirit not only of the
Italian libretto of Lorenzo da Ponte,
but also of the caustically witty
French original of Beaumarchais.
"The Marriage of Figaro" de-
pends more than most operas on an
understanding of the text for il^ full
appreciation. The story is just an-
other eighteenth-century comedy,
but the situations of which it is
nUpde up axe highly significant.
Music and words combine to pro-
duce a sharply-focussed picture of
the guttering display and the sor-
did realities of an eighteenth-cen-
tury court.
The bitter satire of the life of
the noble classes gave the play
enormous popularity in some cities^
but caused it to be banned in
others. In Vienna, Mo:'irt's opera
was the only version that passed
the censors. It was first produced
in 1786. just three years before the
social system it lampoons began to
break apart in the French revolu-
tion.
Tune In next Wednesday for the
music of Mozart, and Beaumarchais*
story of the Mariage of Figaro. The
Count Aimaviva, the enlightened
gentleman who has resigned his
rights over his female vassals
though continuing to exercise th«n
where he can; Suzanna, the present
object of his quests; the Reverend
Don Basilio. procurer for his lord-
ship; Barbarlna, the not-so-simple
county maid; Cherubino, the amor-
ous page-boy — all these and a host
of others will be there to entertain
you.

By M*I. CRAWFORD
The basketball team looks like it i3 getting serious. The
black steel gates on the gym doorways are closed now during
practices, and would-be spectators have to do their spectatiiiE
from the track above the gym. Without the usual fock oi
onlookers blocking the doorway and guys fooling around with
basketballs in the corners, the place looks as deserted a,-
Toronto's streets on New Year's morning.
With a record like the Blues' slate of one won, eight lost
to date, they should be getting serious. Their one win was
their only home game so far; on their tours south of the
line they have doubtless been distributing a tremendous
amount of international goodwill, but have yet to win a game.
They started playing tough teams before they were m shape,
and lost by big scores. Before Chri.stmas, nearly half the
team were working nights or on shift work, besides trying
to play basketball by day. Last week it was the SPS mid-term
f inal.s, which kept Natan.son and Monnot away. And without
those tall men under the hoop, the Blues can't do very
much.
They've got two weeks till they open the Intercollegiate
sea.son in Montreal on the 2.5th, when they play McGill, and
another week after that before they meet Western, the Inter-
collegiate champions. Those will be two weeks of hard work,
in which some will have- to get back in shape after their
recent lay-off, and in which one or two late-comers will be
trying to crack the starting line-up.
Eddie Brennan decided today to come out again and try
out his aching legs. Sidelined till now with shinsplints, he
has not been troubled by them lately, and will work out until
he can decide for sure whether they will stand up or not.
If they do, he will bring back some of the drive and com-
petitive spirit of last year's team which has been lacking
this year. He operated well with Natanson — nobody this
year has been able to get the ball in to him and then cut in
and take the ball again for a lay-up the way Brennan did last
year. Having someone besides Natanson who can score when
Natanson has the ball will help the big guy a lot too; he
usually has two or three guys crawling over him whenever
he gets the ball.
Bill Wilson is another member of last year's team who
has come out late, and may work back into the starting line-
up. Actually, if Natanson, Brennan, and Wilson regain their
last year's form, the team should be a little better in scor-
ing than last yea/'-'s, in view of the improvement of Huycke
and Maynerick.
As far as the home fans are concerned, the team will
have practically a clean slate when they engage Curry College
at Hart House Saturday night, with only one home game
played to date. The opposition between now and the opening
of the Intercollegiate season should not be as tough as what
they have been facing.
« * * * «
The Orphuns played YMHA last night, but our early
deadline these days ni.xes any hope of getting results on night
games. The bus strike prevents us from getting late copy to
the printer,
YMHA, through recent importing, has what must be the
tallest team in Canada. A guy by the name of John Palmer
from England, a dead ringer for George Mikan (in appear-
ance) stands 6'11" ", we hear, and a couple of players go
around 6'5" or 6'6". The Orphuns tied for first with the Tri-
Bells, would probably be a good match for the Blues, with
Madden and pussell who are ineligible for Intercollegiate ball
and Stulac who hasn't time to practice.

The Intramural sports schedule
continued yesterday on the liock-
ey and basketball fronts. In the
arena at noon, Vir- in defeated
the UC ni puck squad by a 4-1
count. The Vicslers scoring was
evenly divided, with MacDowell
Sheridan. Hinder and Ivey each
lighting the lamp once. Stefan
was the lone marksman for the
losing Redmen.
Vic and UC also met on the
basketball floor yesterday after-
noon, and the Scarlet and Gold
thirds came from behind to hold
the UC fourths to a 21-21 draw.
The Redmen took an 11^ lead in
the first frame, and increased it
to 17-8 by the end of the second
session. But the Vicsters came
back strong In the last period,
outscoring their opposition 13-4.
Mclntyre was top scorer in the
contest with seven points for the
Cictoria crew, while Frame with
six and Jackson with five paced
the Redmen.
In another major league b-ball

Orfuns Play East York
At Hart House Tonight
The Blues take on Curry College as the feature ,,j
of the Athletic Night this Saturday. Since the JVj
twice this week as Orphuns in the City League, they
participate in the preliminary. Two high school tejj
Jarvis and Thorold, will fill this part of the bill. .
The University of Toronto Orfuns, undefeated in jj
starts, are trying an iron man stunt in playing two gaitiejl
as many nights. Last night they met a revamped
quintette and this evening they tackle the East York GtJ
at Hart House. Currently tied for top spot in the city LeU
with the Toronto Tri-bells, the Orfuns have a good chancej
moving out in front if they copp both' games. '
George Stulac, Jim Russell, and Leo Madden have l
the Orfuns to date, and if they can maintain their i
season pace Dalt White's crew should come out in tmJ
Stulac was the leading scorer in the TSSAA last year, njl
Russell was the sparkplug of the St. Mike's Interfacnn
Basketball squad. Madden was picked on the all-star te»
of New York City high schools. The latter two are in a pn
course at St. Mike's and so are ineligible for Intercollegu]
competition.

From the starting ding to the
final buzz it was St. Hilda's all the
way in a female hockey fest at
Varsity Arena yesterday noon when
St. Hilda's I.shut-out Vic ri 2-0. The
score is no indication of what ac-
tually took place, and were it not
for an unusual talent of Vic goalie
Joan Wickware to flip the oncom-
ing puck up over the back of the
net, the wailing would have been
a lot louder in the Vic dressing
room. Trinity surpassed their op-
ponents in both skating and stick-
handling prowess and showed evi-
dence of "thought before shot"'.
The Saints' powerhouse line of
Mathews, Macpherson and Ketch-
um was a constant threat. During
the first p?riod the Trinity gals
monopolized the play banging in
two tallies. The second frame saw
plenty of .spills and near counters
but both goalie-^ were wide-awake
on deflection.s. The Red Scarlet and
Gold came b:ick fighting in the
third. June Chandler led some
spectacular break-aways but was
unable to get the disc past Saint
net-minder Elsie Bongard and the
Trinity defence easily cleared the
puck into the Vic zone.
Scotty Mathews sank both Saint
goals and June Chandler and Ginny
Goulding did their durndest for
Vic. With a little more practice
the Vic team should gain the co-
herence it needs. Seems pretty
hazardous to all teams in the league
when a game is won by default.
Tlie team that does show up gets
a whole free hour of practice and
at this point of the game It is
likely to make a big difference.
If the enthusiastic gallery wit-
nessing this tourney Is any uidica-
tion, the interest in women's
hockey is very much alive. But as
an intercollegiate sport it is as
soggy as an old saddle-shoe. Last
year the Varsity girls' hockey
team won all of their games. Many
of the gals that comprised this
team are back playing hockey this
year. Anne Boulding, hockey star
of '51, has departed, but Barb
Weatherhead, Scotty Mathews and
"B.J." Fraser are all present. There
is no doubt that Varsity could
again turn out a top team but
other universities just don't ap-
pear interested. The GOlden Gaels
dropped out after two decisive de-
feats at the hands of the Blue
girls last year. Neither Westei
McMaster. nor Macdonald CoUq
have made any advances,
of unofficial reports from GueiJ
It's a crying shame, with all
talent going to waste, but i
some soul makes a large dom^M
to women's university sports, i
gals' hockey this year will be lifl^'^
ed to Intramural contests.

very

cal
remai^aoTe

L her records seem quite life-
Tcompared to the real thing.
Thp program began with three
Js Irom the 17th and 18th cen-
Hfis by Monteverdi. Ales-
fndro Scarlatti and Handel. Miss
w Ids Angeles took all these very
Ltly iind easily. The full force
I her voice was never used, and
ifihou^h the last two were tech-
ira! display pieces, the lyrical
with which she handled them
naje them seem deceptively
"^^j^^g'roup of Ueder by Schumann
jnd French songs by Faure and
iavel followed. Here more
ensily was required, particularly
"ich groUe nicht" from '"Dich-
teiliebe ". However. Miss de los
Angeles made these songs as
■eimpie as possible too. Only in
the biggest climaxes and she let
lier voice ring out, and at every
opportunity she kept to the inti-
nate. quiet tone which had char-
cterlzed her first group. Ravel's
setting of a Hebrew hymn of
praise was particularly effective
sung in a dispassionate, almost
cold way.
The famous scena from Gou-
nod's "Faust" beginning with
"The King of Thule" ballad and
going on to the "Jewel Song"
could not have been better
chosen. Miss de los Angeles is
the ideal Marguerite. She has the
requisitely mellow voice. yet
sounds simple and unaffected. For
once, one did not have the im-
pression that the "Jewel Song"
was put there merely to bring
down the house. The entire scene
was a wonderful bit of acting, '
without costumes or sets, and al-
most without gestures.
The final group consisted of
Spanish folk songs. Here Miss de
los Angeles' word must be taken
as final as regards interpretation.
Undoubtedly, she is right and ev-
eryone else wrong, for she. after
all, is the Spaniard. She sang
them without any of the tragic in-
tensity that singers commonly
give them, but simply as ordinary
ditties, delightful but not pro-
foundly emotional. Eren the well-
known and. supposedly, bitter
"Segudilla Murciana" in de Pal
la's arrangement, was turned into
a simple folk tune.
For her last encore. Miss de los
Angeles brought out her guitar
and accompanied herself in a folk
song. If anything was required
to bewitch the audience further,
this turned the trick. Her quiet,
intimate voice and equally quiet
running accompaniment provided
a fittingly unpretentious close to
charming concert.

Good Builds,
Personalities
Are Paying
Montreal (CUP) — A recent Mc-
Gill Daily advertisement, asking
for male clothing models of "good
build, unselfconscious. and having
a pleasing personality and mature
appearance", resulted in fifty-four
well-built, mature-appearing, pleas-
ing McGiU University personalities
appearing for the ten jobs.
' The good builds appeared before
the Young Men's Section of tiie
Montreal Clothing Industry Coun-
cil. After giving their names aiid
telephone numbers, they walked
unselfconsciously in a circle and
stood with their jackets off. show-
ing their backs, and shoulders.
Paid $25 for two evenings' work
by the Clothing Industry Council,
the ten fortunate job-seekers have
the opportunity to purchase any
of the specially tailored outfits
modelled at considerably less than
the manufacturer's cost.
There will be no more bare knees
in the Army. A year old discussion
on whether short trou-sers^ were
practical for summer wear by mem
bers of the Army, ended this week
with tile announcement that any
existing authority for the wearing
short trousers by troops is with
drawn.
Ajid lor several good reason;
Short trousers. Army Headquarters
pointed out. while ideal in many
instances for training purposes
cause more trouble than they are

Spreading The Gospel
NewmcBiiia ?
In a final pre -Christmas rush of ambi-
tion, The Varsity published a theme is-
sue devoted to education. At the time,
we admitted that such an Issue was in-
iended to stimulate discussion rather than
present absolute standards. On such a
basis, it appears to have been a success,
perhaps more among members ol the
•taff. than the students themselves.
These being the furst and sober days of
the new year, we intend to Indulge in a
little introspection. There is rarely a bet-
ter excuse for self analysis.
Among the vast and varied list of
writers and subjects, a few ideas and
phrases seemed to crop up again and
again. A liberal education came in for a
hearty round of applause. Only through a
thorough grounding in the liberal arts
eould we ever hope to preserve our free
•ociety. it was suggested.
' Student conformity look quite a beat-
toe fro.m all sides. Progress requires in-
jiuiring minds, but "students have for-
gotten to question'*. Another observed
that examinations have played a large
part in producing minds which simply
Sbdorbs facts and refuses to digest ideas.
Of course, the value of intellectual free-
dom was stressed and there were several
exhortations to "look southward angels."
puly if the university continues to be "a
community in search of truth" can it hope
to provide leadership to the community.
While lip service was paid to the fact
that the world haa changed, and inevit-
ably also, the universities, we wonder
firhether this fact permeated into our dis-
tussion of education. Speaking of Matthew
iAmold. Professor MoLuhan observed
tliat, in Culture and Anarchy, he fell
"into the trap of moralizing about
the plight of culture in terms of
an antecedent situation."
Did we tend to do the same thing?
We are not often called reactionary but
in this case the term might be used
justifiably. Perhaps we suffer from New-
mania — a laudable disease.
Admittedly, some of the most notable
expressions of the idea of a liberal edu-
cation were formulated in the nineteenth,
century. The liberal artists of today, how-
ever, are possibly overly indebted to their
predecessors — they are living on borrowed
steam.
Even if yesterday's ideas were equally
valid today, they inevitably lose some of
their potency through repetition. A con-
siderable degree of shoclc resistance is built
up in everyone's mind. Phrases like "in-
tellectual freedom", "liberal education",
"education for a free society", "democ-
racy" and "our way of life" sjre tossed off
at the drop of the hat and received, with
all the connotations, as gospel truth. They
stand as symbols whose meaning becomes
progressively more elusive. Unfortunately,
few people analyze the gospel very fre-
quently. Fewer still translate the gospel
into modern Idiom.
Some of these ideals — our heritage of
freedom — and their catch words which
supposedly express their substance, may
be very "fine, but they must be reinterpret-
ed in terms of our times. That is the
only way in which they will acquire any
meaning in people's minds, and, thence,
carry an^ conviction with them.
In an age of machines and mass com-
munication, the Newman and Mills of the
nineteenth century may become displaced
priests. Yet up tiU now they have no
worthy successor.

Independents
Editor, The Varsity:
We. the INDEPENDENTS owe an explana-
tion to the students on the campus. Anyone
who read The Varsity of Dec. 12th expects
that there will be two INDEPENDENT mem-
bers sitting in the House tonight. The Varsity
article stated that "at the beginning of the
next Mocic Parliament," it would be moved,
"that the Independents be entitled to . . .
two seats in the legislature during the present
session." It is now extremely doubtful whether
the Independents will leave the gallery.
Designed as a general motion to be passed
without debate, the measure has now been
transformed by some pecuhar partisan mach-
inations into a bill. Certain interests that fear
franii and non-party criticism on the floor
of the House have backed down on the Moot
Parliament Committee's original decision. The
right of the Independents to their seats has
been made a cheap political issue. By making
a bill out of a simple motion of acceptance
the parties have just generously agreed to
give each other more time to spout the usual
line. Any remarks made on the bill will prob-
ably descend into the field of vilification of
personalities. We hope that this shall not
be so.
These are the facts. The Independents
speak in good faith and stiU believe that an
attitude of fair play will prevail. If not, the
students have been mocked by the Mock
Parliament.
Sincerely, the two voices in the Wilderness.

Editor, The Varsity:
I should like to clarify certain statements
appearing in the last regular Varsity. I was
reported as agreeing to second a motion pro-
viding for the seating of independents in the
Mock Parliament. At no time has the Liberal
Club agreed to the seating of Independents,
The suggested move will involve a change in
the constitution of the Mock Parliament. It
cannot be dealt with by a simple motion ol
general interest. Hence I must ask that it b*»
introduced as a minor bill.
There is a large body of non-party opinion
on this campus. It should be represented in
the Mock Parliament by independent mem-
bers. The decision regarding admissibility
of parties was made and published early in
October but tliis group took no action at that
thne. They had an opportunity to get their
names on the ballot in a legitimate manner.
K they had obtained recognition (a simple
letter of application probably would have
been sufficient) they would liave been wel-
com:d by all parties. They had their oppor-«
tunity and muffed it. If they comply with,
regulations In the next election they will b«
most "welcome.
Tills is not a question of whether independ-
ents have a place in the Mock Parliament; that
is conceded. Still no one should be able to
appoint hinxself to the ballot simply by writ-
ing a letter to a newspaper. Rules are made for
a purpose. If this group do not abide by them,
they exclude themselves from tihe game.

The Conservative Government of Prime Minister David
Fry was defeated last night at the opening session of ths
Mocic Parliament. However all three opposities parties were
placed in a tricky position for by defeating the government
they also defeated a bill which they had already endorsed.
The motion defeated w»s an act for the establishment of
University Grants Boards, for the increase of government
aid to universities and to make available government bur-
saries for higher education.

Trivett charged that there has
not been enough publicity on the

Hart House on Tuesday, and that
many students on the campus
thought they needed special in-
vitation to attend it.
Armstrong repUed, "His Excel-
lency Mohammed Ali. Pakistani

th invitation until the latter part
of December, and so the affair
could not be publicized in The
Varsity."
Joan Presant, chairman of the
National Federation of University

nothing could be done about this
anymore, every member of the
EAC should sell five tickets.
Dorothy Leibermann, n Pro-
Meds said that it was not fair to
ask some members of the EAC
'to sell tickets and that she at the
present moment could not even
buy one. However, when asked,
a number of students indicated
they could sell five or more tlck-
^^Armstrong remarked that the
weather prevents SHARE from
putting up a large thermometer
on the front campus, and suggest-
ed that The Varsity might carry
a thermometer In each issue dur-
ing campaign week, showing the
receipts coming in. possibly from
all faculties.
Trivett exclaimed, "I once ran
the McGin War Memorial Cam-
paign of SlO.OOO where we had a
thermometer and things came in
so slowly that instead of being an
incentive, It was actually depress-
ing to see it going up so slowly
first. This happened, because
most of the canvassers tended to
hand in their reports late." EAC
decided to wait and see.
The act provided for the setting
up of Universities Grants Boards
in several provinces to administer,
assess and apportion all govern-
ment grants to the Universities.
The meaning of the word assess
was questioned and declared by the
government to mean "to levy or to
evaluate" in reply to an opposition
question of whether the boards
could assess.
la proposing the motion. Fry
said that while recognizing the
the needs of the universities, the
danger of government control of
the universities was also a problem.
Liberal member. Dwight Pulford.
censured the government for a
"lias tily- drawn up. ill-timed . . .
clumsy'* bill and mentioned that
more was spent on prisons than on
universities. CCP leader Walter
Parker criticized the bill for fail-
ing to provide for specific finances
and for the construction of uni-
versities in underprivileged areas.
Parker also questioned the def-
inition of places of higher learn-
ing. A COP amendement called for
places of lilgher learning to be any
place "teaclung arts, humanities,
or physical sciences in their ad-
vanced state." This amendment
would have added 50 members to
the board in Ontario.
A Liberal amendment to the
amendment which would have re-
stricted the membership to uni-
versities was defeated. Also de-
feated was an earlier amendment
by the LPP party which would hav«
provided for the representation oa
these boards o£ farm and labor or-
ganizations as well as "the inclu-
sion of any members of organiza-
tions interested in peace, e.xclud-
ing the University o£ Toronto Peac»
Club as now constituted."
The government objected to
amendments by the CCF and Lib-
eral parties which would have abol-
ished fees and would have given
the governments any say In how
money granted by the boards should
be spent. Both opposition amend-
ments would have left the univer-
sities with the right to set scholas-
tic standards.
The amendments were passed,
but the government motion wa«
then defeated.
Shirley Endlcott, leader of tlM
Labor Progressive Party, suggest-
ed that what was needed was »
policy that did not restrict Indus-
try and would allow for educatloo.
She claimed a definite connectloa
existed between a governraen*
policy restricting industry and an-
other restricting education.

ticket sales that Hart House Theatre has ever had, accoi-d'^
to theatre business manager James Hozak. He said that IS
first matinee showing of Pygmalion was sold out on the o3
ing day. There will be two matinees for high school stuifi
on Saturday, Jan. 19th and again on the 26th. ^"I
Hozak ezplainea that usually
matinee performances have been
for Shakespeare plays. However. ,
this year Pygmalion is on the sec-
ondary school reading list, a fact
which Hart House Theatre was un-
aware of when the play was sche-
duled. Hozak said that they re-
ceived si^any letters that it was
decided to have the two matinees.
Foot years ago, Hoeak said.
Elaton Auditorium had some
trouble with high school students
attending a Shakespearian per-
formance. In a direct contrast to
this. Hart House has always found
the high school audiences to be
very attentive, often bringing their
texts with them, and Hozak said,
managing to laugh in the right
places.
There will be ten performances
of Pygmalion, starting on Friday,
Jan. 18. Ticket sales for the per-
formances other than the mati-
nees are also at a record level ac-
cording to Hozak.

By JERRT BROWNE
Four years ago. a baby called
the "All-Varsity Rfivue" was bom,
For two years this baby grew,
but last year it became a "cold
battered corpse." The Varsity
cried editorially. "MURDER."
After countless posUmortems,
came the decision: ** "Twas but a
temporary murder, the corpse
must be revived for next year/
Jim Guthro, producer, has been
given this task.
From the court records come
these facts. The All-Varsity Revue
was started in 1949. Sponsored
by the Students' Administrative
Council, this production was
combine the best talent 'in the
University with the best script and
song writing to effect a show that
was completely undergraduate,
from the laziest stagehand to the
harried producer. The show _
'49 and In '50 were successes. Mon-
ey was lost on both ventures but
"it was an attempt to put on the
best show on the campus, not a
venture to make profit for profit's
sake."
Last year the production was
cancelled by the SJkC because of
dissension and lack of a produc-
er. Two of the issues centered
around whether to get a Profes-
sional Director to put the AYR on
a paying basis since he "would
know how to cut corners produc-
tion wise." and whether the show
should be composed of the top
acts from the campus shows or
be entirely original. Red tape and
lack of agreement made the pro-
duction impossible.
Tliis year, the prospects for the
success of the All-Varsity Revue
look good. Producer Jim Guthro
(also director of the Blue and
White Band) seems to have things
well in hand. Assisting him are
Bruce Snell, singing director, two

flie committee invited Sir Thomas
and Mr. Auden to speak.
Sir Thomas will speak on an as-

lavorite composers, Handel, Haydn,
fiibelius. and especially Mozart, on
January 17, the day after he com-
pletes his concert series with l/ee

Sir Thomas has turned out more
consecutively recorded perform-
B.nces, covering a great repertoire
than any oilier conductor,
W. H. Auden, who lias hved in the
TJniled States since 1939, received
the King George V medallion for
poetry in 1935— the highest poetry
award in England. In recent years

It is unusual for the scientific name of a phenomenon to ijp
fanciful than its popular name. This is true, however, in the cas^ "
Northern Lights, known technically as Aurora borealis. ^
Tliis term is appUed to the colorful display of light se«n ;
northern sky centered about the magnetic pole. At times it app^^ J' M
still bright arch extending from horizon to horizon, whUe at oth**l
may resemble long flickering streamers of light. ^ J
Northern Lights are seen most often in a zone equidisiam |
the magnetic pole and passing through northern Canada, Euiof,^
and the tip of Greenland. The aurora may be seen as far somi, ]
Mexico, but the frequency of it^ appearances becomes greatly ^^^^ '
with distance north or south of the maximum zone.
Usually the color of the displays varies from white to yeii,,^.
shades of green .and red are common. The light present is emiit^"''
the earth's atmosphere and not by the sun. This has been decided { ^'
the observation that the light from rainbows which originates tr
sun is partially polarized by reflection and refraction, while au
light is not polariL*3d. The shade of color present is dependent
the level of the atmosphere in which the phenomenon is oc^uiTinp j
rarer o.>:ygen concentrations, there are fewer collisions between atir
aiKi so more of them return to the stage in which their ability to p
light Is lost. During their return to this final state, oxygen atoms s
a red color. Thus, a red colored aurora signifies great height.
By applying photographic techniques of surveying, the height ^
aurora may be determined. It has been found that Northern ]
occur in the range of 50 to 460 miles atoove the earth's surface.
Throughout history, the origin of the Aurora borealis has betn J
mystery. In some localities where its appearances were rare, its pres
was viewed as a supernatural omen of swne impending disaster, in r
times, a number of ttieories have been suggested in explanation.
One theory states that the aurora is due to a neutral stream 4
particles from a small region ol the sun reaching the earth's atmosphe.
This is based on the observation that the aurora Is associated triJ
disturbances in the magnetic field of the earth and usually follon; y
appearance of sunspots.
Another concept is that streams of neutral molecules are conlin
being projected outwards beyond the normal boundary of the eaJlbS
atmosphere, only to fall back to their original level. However, tlie actla
of ultra-violet light from a sun ^x»t eruption causes the=e
molecules to become ionized, electrically charged, and thus infiueno
by the magnetic field of the earth.
All of which merely provas one fact conclusively. A science rohj
can be written without the assistance of poetry.

Roulette Wheel Pri<
For Arts Ball Tickets!
Tickets for the University coUege
Arts Ball will be sold by a roulette
wheel this year, according to pub-
licity director Joe Goldenberg. The
roulette wheel will be set up in the
rotunda at UC on Tuesday, Jan. 15
with various prices marked on the
rim. When a volunteer offers to
buy a ticket to the Ball, the wheel
will be spun and wherever the
pointer stopa is the price the cus-
tomer pays. Goldenber? said that
this means that a student can get
a ticket for^ a price as low as 29
cents.
Entertainment this year will be
provided by Bert Niosi's band and
by Jean Cavell, star of Jean Cavell
Calling on the CBC radio network.
Cavell was the cafe singer in the
British movie "Quartet" and was
in the first BBC post-war tele-
vision review. His voice has been
1
described by a CBC spokestnan ■
being romantic and sexy, ■
like Boyer talks". He is also wntn^
a cook book and collects
with the accent on spices. In ISC^
he was third in the Canadian I
ing championships after six mooUi
of training.
Goldenberg had no commfot
make on the problem of corssi

basis of talent and beauty

Tbe majority critical consensus that A PLACE

nie. Maybe Dreiser got short-changed but the
Lrge Stevens direction was vivid and sensitive
nd moving. It was also a happy sign to see that
Stistically, both A PLACE IN THE SUfN and A
TREErrCAR NAMED DESIRE were among the
top money-making Hollywood products.
Coming down to the present, Toronto's down-
_Q„n theatres are obviously feeling the pinch of

big play. The current fare does not seem any
« impressive, just typical ol the annual post-
hristmas let-down.
double-bUl that is pulling them in every-
iheie ROYAL JOURNEY and THE WOODEN '
[ORSE (Victoria-Eglinton), is a pleasant bargain.
WOODBIN HORSE, a British film made in
many and Denmark, is based on Eric William's
■port of a -fantastic and actual escape from a
erman prison camp during 1945. Leo Genn, who
IS been seen in HENRY V. THE SNAKE PIT. and
II be seen in ANDROCLES AND THE LION, is
le ringleader of the escape plot. His companions
ithony Steel'and David Tomlinson. as well as a
ihole battery of very British and RAF-ish types,
:e vei7 satisfactory. So effective is the suspense
this mastertpiece of imder statement, that I did
it notice until the Very end that no wtMnen
appear during 95 per cent of the film's length.
But even more impressive than this British job
Is the co-feature, the National Film Board's
ElOYAL JOURNEY. I must admit that alter seeing
Innumerable newsreels of the Royal visit to Cana-
da, often several times over, I had qualms about
seeing more of the Duke and the Princess, charm-
ing folk as they are. But this Kodacolor film, of
an hour's length, is an intensely beautiful con-
stantly entertaining film, m fact, from a Cana-
dian point of view, it is downright exciting.
Of course, you probably have heard about this
already, but ROYAL JOURNEY concentrates not
so much on the Royal visitors as on the country
they saw, and the people they saw. The camera
work is imaginative and out-of-ordinary: no flat
newsreel shots are these, human interest surges
forth. The music and the narration by Elwood
Glover (who does not become coy) and a group
of representative voices fit in well.
If yoTi have not seen much of this country of
Durs. ROYAL JOtlRNKY will stimidate and ex-
cite you. If you h^ve, places that you know, views
that you cherish will make your enjoyment even
deeper. ROYAL JOURNEY has been made by
Canada's NFB for export as well as domestic re-
lease. It is obviously a heavy investment, miles of
film must have been shot to get a film as solidly
impactic as this. It should definitely pay off, both
here and outside our borders.
A different prospect is the currently showing
MY FAVORITE SIPY (Imperial), the newest ver-
sion of the Bob Hope formula. Hope has the beau-
teous Hedy Lamarr as this running-mate here in
a vaguely Casablanca-ish spy story which is the
thin base for the usual fevered Hope script of gags.
FYancis L. Sullivan is head villain with an assort-
ment of thugs, headed by wrestler Moose Mazurki,
As usual, we laugh like sixty during a Hope
film and the final chase sequence reminds us,
anaemically perhaps, of the classic Keystone Cop
chases. But as soon as we walk out into the
toyer, we find that there is nothing left, and even
now it is very hard to remember even one good
crack or sequence in the film.
Next week, I will complete this New Year sur-
vey with a glance on some of the good things
coming. From advance notes anyway, 1952 promises
to be on par with 1951 as an often- satisfying
movie year. It may just be that Hollywood is really
trying to meet the competition of television with
' the kind of films that appeal to the audience
that has grown out of the fan magazine stage.
It's a nice thought to start off the New Year with,
anyway.

Some of the dances were done

Agriculturists Say

Proof At Caledon
Dorothy Lieberman, chairman of
the EAC Weekend Committee, an-
nounced the plans yesterday for
the weekend (Jan. 19 and 20) to be
shared with students from OAC and
MacDonald Institute at Caledon
Hills Farm.
'Most of us know very few stu-
dents of the smaller Ontario col-
leges, and I think that this week-
end should be most enjoyable, since
it offers a chance for some of us
to get acquainted. It is also a mar-
vellous opportunity for people who
have never been to Caledon," said
Lieberman,
The activities will include skat-
ing, skiing, (if possible) square
dancing, a sleighrtde. a movie and
an informal discussion. The two
big ponds near the farm are re-
ported to be frozen solid, and at
this time of year there is always
lots of snow. "There will also." add-
ed Miss Lieberman, "be lots of cid-
er."
In regard to the discussion. Mr.
D. E. Toole, president of OAC's
student council, had several sug-
gestions. "Often people BSe prone
to consider 'Aggies' as country
cousins with straw behind their
ears since they do not understand
the importance of agriculture in
the country as a whole, so we mig-ht
very well discuss the relation of ag-
ricultural study and researcli in
this country to other phases of busi-
ness and productive activity (bet-
ter bring 5-on:3 c and F men alon?)
and the place of asriculMire in the
whole picture ot education." An-
other .suggested topic was the prob-
lem of whether students should be
required to have an arts BA befor*
entering professional courses.
There will be ten OAC men cm
the weekend, and a group of piria
from MacDonald Institute. Mac-
Donald is a college of home eco-
nomics in Guelph, loosely connect-
ed to OAC.
Toronto students interested in giv-
ing to Caledon for this weekend ars
asked to leave their names in ono
of the two SAC offices, as soon aa
possible. The group will leave, prob-
ably in cars, on Saturday morning
(Jan. 19) and will return early Sun-
day evening. The entire weekend
will cos't four dollars.

By MAL CRAWFOBt
When the indoor trackmen run the Interfaculty Indoor
Mile this year, they will have to run a mile for a change.
This unfortunate turn of events applies to all distances from
the half-mile up. Unless somebody has a whale of a season,
those beautiful records that were set last year are g-oing to
stand for a long time.
The reason for this dist'buraging turn of events is that
the Athletic Asociation has decided to remeasure the track to
see just how unrealistic the records in the longer distances
really were. It was found that by measuring six feet out
from the inside, which is roughly where the races up to and
including 600 yards are run, the length obtained was 155
yards. This is just about the figure that all the distances
have been based on in the past. Most of the longer distances
are run closer in, since the slower the pace, the less the
runner has to veer out on the corners. So, from now on all
distances of 880 yards or over will be measured along a line
three feet out from the inside.
This will make the 880 about 20 yards longer than it was
previously, the mile about 40 yards longer, and so on. New
records were set last year by Murray Gaziuk in the 600, the
880, the 1000 yards, and the mile, all well under the old
records. It will require a monumental effort to do much to
them this year.
The meets start Monday, with the 50 yard dash (novice
and open) and the 600, at 5 o'clock. The 100 and 880, 220
and 1000, and the 300 and mile will be held on succeeding
Mondays.
It is expected that if the Athletic Directorate considers
the effort of the season's trackmen worthy, a team will be
sent to the Michigan State Relays, and possibly to another
indoor meet in the States. A team is always sent to the Inter-
naetional Indoor meet at Hamilton in March. Although the
competition in track down under is usually too much for us
to e-xpect our entries to win, place, or even show, it has
been the Athletic Director's policy to .send any team down to
American games or meets that looks like it might do credit
to the University.

To 3-1 Victory
Teams have been or will be sent down to compete with
American colleges this year in every sport except football.
Arrangements have been under way to arrange a match with
Harvard, but due to rule differences and the fact that U.S.
teams book their schedules anywhere from one to three years
in advance, games with American teams in football are
difficult to arrange. We think one game a year with teams
like Harvard, which does not stress sports as much as most,
would be n i -'od thing. At any i^te, no dates can be set for

blue squad seemed to have the
edge through most of the game, but
even when ihe team did lag, the

St. Mike's notched two of their

Smelle at the nine minute mart,

clear, made no mistake -and beat
Smelle cleanly. As in the first
frame, tempers flared rei>eatedly

Donald of St. Mike's. With about
five minutes remaining. Ian Mc-
Donald sunk the lone U.C. tally
on a screened shot from the blue-

several occasions in the last five

remarkable inconsistency of the
people who love getting their hands
in the mud. Some forget that plays
are presented to please an audience,
not just to promote college spirit.
Others there are who moan the
childish efforts of the actors, or the
even more puerile plays that drama
clubs so often choose instead of one
of the world's masterpieces.
Victoria's production, AN IN-
SPECTOR CALLS, can, I venture
to say, be criticized at every stage
of its production. The play has
much of the trickery common to
J. B. Priestley. It has also, however,
the dubious advantage of being
cleverly and simply written and,
for a change, more genuine human
situations than is usual for Mr.
Priestley; I say dubvious advantage,
because the Vic payers chose to
make these situations — situations
such as exist in any family — seem
completely improbable. In voice,
gesture and facial expression they
invariably portrayed the wrong
emotion.
Many of the faults can I imagine
be attributed to the director Don-
ald Glen, for I sn.'^pect also that
the players could have used an-
other week of rehearsal — perhaps
two. It was noticeable in the actors,
whose movements were for the
most part mechanically awkward
and wrongly timed. Tliey were al.so
unsure of the delivery of their
lines. To the director too must sure-
ly go the blame for the loudness of
the production. Everyone seemed
to be shouting at everyone else, and
as a consequence thf actors had no
way of getting madder than they
already were, and for the audience
the play was something; to be kept
at a distance; they just couldn't
warm up to this production.
Of the actors. OeorTC McCowan
showed evidence of some stage ex-
cold and indifferent when he should
of been quiet, unassuming, and in
command of the situation more by
the strength of his personality
than the sharpness and incisive-
ness of his voice.
Douglas Quirk had moments when
he seemed to understand the
character of an older and pompous
man, but the ham in him wouldn't
let well enough alone. He insisted
on bombast and caricature rather
than a real person. His wife, Mrs.
Birlmg. played by Barbara Walker
gave the play its only moment of
genuine feeling when she discover-
ed that her son had been hardly
the young lad she had thought him
to be. For a split second some of
the more self-conscious members
of the audience forgot themselves
and their giggles.
As for the Birlmg Children,
played by Gloria Gilhes and Ken
Breen. the former's vi>ice screech-
ed and sobbed too much; the lat-
ter's voice betrayed too unsure a
knowledge of the lines. The sama
was true of Jack Rutherford's por-
trayal of Gerald Croft, Sheila
Birling's fiance, but he wa^ .--luewd
enough to cover up his mistakei
and present a sartorial brilliance.
A good deal of praise should go
to Will Pegg who designed a fine
set in the proper elegrance of the
period,

No Subversives
ilumor in Canadian university news-
papers would seem to lead the same nebu-
lous existence as the Trans-Ganada high-
ipay. Prom coast to coast, there is neither
R distinctive student humourist nor a pav-
ed highway. At least the judges of this
year's Canadian University Press found
Its lack the "one outstanding shorteom-
Ing".
"Where," asked Walter Chistopherson,
tity editor of the Montreal Gazette, "Is
the probing tongrue-in-cheek student ap-
praisal of current events that can ana-
lyse a statement or a situation with un-
Bwed perspective?" Where, indeed? Often
we have pondered this very same question
on long evenings in the editorial office.
At times we have even contemplated run-
ning the Champus Cat head, without
benefit of typographical elaboration.
Admittedly, there have been a few
bright spots here and there, a whiff of
brilliance now and then, but the moments
are all too fleeting. But why? Wliere is
the irrepressible humour of youth."
The late George Orwell, once observed
that
"A joke worth laughing at always
has an idea behind it, and usually a
subversive idea."
Possibly, then, it is simply the happy
fate of the universities to lack, subver.sive
students. Or maybe the subversives are
just too subversive.
After Pearl Harbour
( Reprinted from The DoUv Colilornlon )
Ten years ago today the world came
down upon our shoulders, and the Jap-
«ne.se attack upon Pearl Harbor baptized
^nsrica in a new tradition.
Militarism has become an American
trait. During the decade that we reached,
our social maturity, war ha.s been made
an almost necessary aspect of 20th-century
living.
Thir.k about the change in attitude
toward large armies and continual arma-
ment and rearmament.
This attitude may well be a necessaiir
product of the errors of that very day on
which this new tradition came Into being.
If there is to be another war, we do not
want to be caught again. We will be
prepared.
We may grumble about taxes continually
going up and complain about the extent
to which we aid probable allies, but It is
fclso obvious to us that these actions are
t necessary if we are to avoid another Pearl
Harbor,
The lo^c ts irrefutable in the light ot
past experience, but the growing militar-
ism is something to be wary of. And we
are militaristic. The current favorite In
the 1952 presidential race is a general. The
greattet political controversy of the last
few years centered around a general. Mili-
tary men more and more are becoming
men of importance in the political and
social fields.
What is more, the attitude toward such
a thing as Universal Military Training has
changed from one of distaste to one of
acceptance and practicality.
In August, 1945. the war ended that
began with today's anniversary. For a
short while it seemed that the controversy
was over, that men were going to unite in
some great work for peace. There was the
happy possibility that we would be the
fortunate generation between wars.
But the peace between the Atomic bomb
and the Korean conflict was a fraud If
Pearl Harbor was a baptism in militarism
then Korea has been its confirroation.
The '"quick emergency" of a decade ago
ended. The civilian soldier came home.
But today we are re- militarized. We, the
civilians of today, can think of ourselves
only in terms of the soldiers of tomorrow.
The army has joined death and taxes: it
too is Inevitable.
Our new tradition is an answer to the
times; let's hope it Ls not a permanent
one. — Al Manzano.

The $11,000 that the forthcoming Stu-
dent Help to Asian Relief and Education
campaign wiU attempt to raise next weet
will be handed over to the International
Student Service or world University Ser-
vice, as it is now called, for distribution.
What is WUS? How does it function?
How does it put money to work to better
university conditions throughout the.
world?
was is the agency that has been estab-
lished tor 25 years to help unwevsit.es
In need of aiistance throughout the
world.
About thirty countries are represented
in WUS which has its headquarters m
Geneva 'Besides these national commit-
tees WUS also includes representatives
from Catholic, Protestant and Jewish in- .
ternational student bodies, as weU as
other organizations and individuals who
can Ije of assistance in WUS activities. ,
The WUS program falls into two cate-
gories: material and non-material. The
latter includes such projects as arrang-
in*' international conferences. For exam-
ple last year it organized a conference
in South East-Asia to assess the diffi-
culties and needs of the area as well as
to establish permanent channels of con-
tact that had never existed there before.
But with the main focus of attentioa
on this campus with actual material aid,
just how does WUS function? SHARE,
together with WUS, chose six universities
to help in South-East Asia from a list of
proposed relief projects outlined in the
Mutual Assistance Report.
To have a project listed on this report
is a long and complicated process. First,
specific requests for assistance are pre-
sented to the WUS international assembly,
held annually, or the international office.
The requests are analyzed and checked by
qualified representatives, on the basLs of
need, expediency, and value. They are then
listed in the mutual assistance report,
from which WUS caiTies out its aid pro-
gram.
Immediately following the war, the mei^
jor part of the funds were directed to-
wards work in Europe. In the past few
years, however, South-East Asia has as-
sumed greater importance and, now re-
ceives the major share.
The amount of money that can be sent
to one university is not great, and the ad-
ministrative staff is not adequate to sup-
ervise projects. For this reason WTJS con-
centrates on universities that they feel
are equipped to be given assistance and
use it competently themselves. In other
words: help to those who can help them-
selves.
In practise it works this way. Where
hospital space and doctors are available
but diTjgs and other vital medical equip-
ment are non-existent, WUS will provide
the necessary materials to help the hos-
pital begin to function properly. It may
be a medical school with hospital attach-
ed or an infirmary for students who need
treatment themselves.
The theory behind this plah is to bring
students and faculty together in a com-
mon undertaking for their ow^i .
No strings are attached to hk,
only idea that WUS tries to
the feeling that people through
world have a common interest'"
state of universities everywhere i»
not, in other words try to pmnao "
poUtical or religious views or
thing in return.
However. WUS does not functb

resentatives of Communist studetiul
are represented in WUS except ViT
via. Through the Communlst-3o,^

At the University of British (.

Last year this amounted to $5,342, i

other countries, signifying the i ^.

Considerable criticism has been Is
against WUS because it was not doii

money was being diverted to a

of only 2,000, owns and operates an A.M.

from their station manager concerning

or the 90 seats In the University
of Toronto Mock Parliament held
last night it would appear that
there were at least six graduates
sitting and one student wlio left
the University at Christmas time.
The Progressive Conservatives
filled their 36 seats with under-
graduates, according to David
Fry, president of the MacDonald-
Cartier Club. Liberal leader John
Medcoff said the Liberals seated
"one or two recent graduates from
graduate studies" with the re-
mainder of their 23 seats being
filled by undergrads.
The CCF had at least one mem-
ber from Osgoode Hall. Stanley
Long, a third year student, along
with two other graduates, and the
LPP seats were filled by seven
undergrads. one recent grad, and
one student who left the University
at Christmas, according to Shirley
Elndicott of tlie campus LPP Club.
Claire Bacchus of the Political
Science Club, sponsors of this
year's Parliament, said yesterday
that there was only a general un-
derstanding among the party lead-
ers that undergraduates and re-
cent graduates in Graduate Stu-
dies should be seated. As for
the sitting of graduates, the ques-
tion is reported to have been rais-
ed earlier by CCP leader Walter
Parker, and an understanding that
the clubs should be allowed to
give seats to graduates so long as
this privilege was not abused. ^
This is the first year that tha
Mock Parliament has been run by
the Political Science Club. In th«
past, according to Medcoff, th«
constitution of the Mock Parlia-
ment restricted membership to
-Students payijig fees to the Stu-
dents' Administrative Council." If
this ruling had been applied this
year all graduates would hav«
been ineligible to sit in the Mock
Parliament. This ruling would al-
so eliminate CCP leader Walter
Parker, who Is an occasional stu-
dent. However. Parker says that
he can remember seeing graduates
amongst the members of the Mock
Parliament two years ago.
The Liberal Club was the only
one of the four political clubs that
was able to fill its allotted seats
from amongst the club member-
ship. The other clubs filled their
seats by accepting students who
supported party policy.

Quebec. Jan. 11 (Staff )— Laval
University came from behind a 3-2
lead established by Toronto In the
second period, to win their second
straight game from the Blu&s, and
land in second place, one point
behind the University of Montreal.
Tall Claude Roy passed to Roland
Dubeau, who scored the tieing goal
and scored the winning one him-
self on a pass from Jean-Marc
Lagace. who had broken past the
Toronto defence at centre ice. The
Blues suffered from an overdose of
pnalties, getting 10 to Laval's six.
The game was very evenly played
all the way, and though It did not
lack the roughness that usually
occurs when Ontario and Quebec
teams play, the zealous refs kept
It in check. He called both Rope
and Adams off for boarding the
same man, though Rope did not
appear to have made any contact.
Larochelle scored the opening goal
against the shorthanded Blues two
seconds later from a face-off in
their own end.
Jack Wheldrake caught the far
post a few minutes later in some
rapid passing from Adams and
Rope. Rope got the next as he
took the puck from a Laval de-
fenceman on the Toronto blue line
and went down alone to score.
Dubeau tied the score at the end
of the period when he poked the
puck from under goalie Ross' leg
in a pUe-up at the Toronto net,
but Rope put the Blues ahead In
tho fourth mhiute of the second
frame with some beautiful stick-
handling to get past Laval rear-
guard Ray Laroche.

As a result of four Canadian reso-
lutions, plans for an international
secretariat have been set up to co-
ordinate the work of 25 national
student unions which met In Edin-
burgh this month.
The secretariat, to be located in
Holland, will be purely an admin-
istrative body, with no executive
pcxwers at all. Its chief job will be
to make sure ttie various national
unions are carrying out the pro-
jects they undertook at EdhKburgh,
and to advise them if necessary.
It was set up on the Unes sug-
gested by the Canadian delegation
to the conference, which met from
Januai-y 3 to 8 In the Scotch capit-
JEAN DE MARGERIE
al The National Federation of
Canadian University Students <NF-
OUS) was represented by Its presi-
dent, Jean de Margerle (Laval), and
tfie Chairman of its International
Activities Commission Syd W'ax,
(Toronto). Wax returned from the
conference late Thursday night.
Oe Margerie Is now on his way to
attend a Pan-American student con-
ference In Brazil.
This conference is a foUow-up of
one held in Stockholm, Sweden,
last year, at which 18 non-Com-
munist imions met to plan practical
activities for International student
co-operation. This year attendance
was extended to include representa-
tives from South -East Asia and
South America. Also present were
observers ot ttie exiled students of
Czechoslovakia and the Ukraine,
and delegates from Yiigoslavia, Is-
rael and Australia, as well as the
countries of Western Europe and
North America.
At Stockholm the national unions
undertook responsibility for a num-
ber of projects, including investiga-
tion of improved travel facilities,
student exclianges. a mutual aid
program, and sports contests. Few
of these have been completed. In an
apiplause-greeted speech at Uie con-
ference, Wax laid the blame for tlie
failure of many of the projects on
the fSiCt that no secretariat had
been established.
Althougli there was general
agreement on the need of a secre-
tariat to strengthen co-operation,
the national unions at Edinburgli
did not hnmedlately agree on its
duties. The Scandinavian* bloc and
the British, in particular, insisted
that it be strictly limited in Its
powers. Wax said. This attitude dat-
ed back to Stockholm, where op-
position to the fonnation of a new
intomational student union was so
strong that even the Idea of a sec-
retariat was defeated.
The secretariat will be responsible
Co a Supervisory Committee of five
national imions, which shall in turn
be resp<ynsible to the annual inter-
national conference. This commit-
tee, which will be elected annually,
consists this year of Prance, the
USA, England, Holland and Sweden.
It will meet periodically, and will
kecip a critical eye on the secretar-

can even fire the secretary, he add-
ed.
Early in the conference the Cana-
dian delegation insisted that any
secretariat must be non-political,
non-discriminatory, and non-reac-
tionary. Ttiis was later echoed by »
joint Yugoslav-British motion.
The new body will be able to rep-
resent the combined student union*
in negotiations with other mterna-
tional organizations. But in accor-
dance wiUi its limited powers, M
can deal only with those bodies
specifically named toy the annual
conference. Tliese include UNESCO
and World University Servic*
(WUS). but not the Conmiunist -
dominated International Union oi
Students.
It wiU be financed by voluntary
eontrtoutions from the national sto-
dent unions wlilch use ita serricea.
A levy of one cent per student wae
suggested to raise the $7,600 budget
for the secretariat's first year.

Debaters Question
US Foreign Policy
-We intend to counter the cal-
low student jibes with the real
tacts ot American accompLish-
xncDts in the post-war world— the
Truman Doctrine the Marshall
Aid program, the Atlantic Pact,
ihe Four Point Program, the arms
assistance program, and the Ko-
rean peace operation."
So said Dwieht W, Fulford, who
ipill second the opposition at tiext
Wednesday's Hart House Debate.
The motion will be "Resolved that
this House deplores the leadership
given by the United States of
America in world affairs."
Elmer W. Sopita. who will move
the resolution, stated: "I cannol
help but feel that the Debates
Committee has worded the motion
a bit too forceably. I intend to
merely record my objections before
the House to the blaclc and white
diplomacy practiced by the US
State Department, Of course the
Communists are just as bad, be-
ing religious fanatics."
John H. G. Morden, leader of the
opposition, could not be reached
at press time, but a member of
the Debates Committee expects
Iiim to take the line that "the
young giant, which is the United
States, has reached normal ma-
turity, and has effectively shoul-
dered its world responsibilities. It
is a leader which we in Canada
can follow with pride.
"What has happened lo 'the
American dream'?" asked David
R. K. Rose, who will second the
motion. "No one can deny that
the United States of America has
accepted tremendous responsibili-
ties in assuming world leadership.
But has this not been determined
by necessity, by the fight for sell-
preservation, and by the conse-
quences of her own mistakes?
"My coHeayne. Mr. Sopba, and I
hope to prove by an examination

Self- Criticism Needed'
- - Publisher Of Times'
Speaking at a joint meeting of the Empire Club of Canada and the Royal Cana
Institute Saturday night, Arthur Hays Sulzberger, president and publisher of the ,\'^*J
York Times, called for a closer "self-examination and self-criticism" of the policies of i?f
Western countries. "If we constantly criticize Russia we will have do time to criticize ^
selves," he said.
by an analj'sis of the domestic
scene, that America's leadership
is inadequate in many respects,

Id ansouDciDg the plans for this
term's activities, the executive out-
lined a six week program in which
the Club will hear speakers and
conduct discussion groups on the
"H^yptian annexation of the Suez
Canal Zone '. This program will
lead to a Model Security Council
session on the evKiing of Fe, 12.
During the discussion groups,
members will divide into 11 panels,
each studying the point of view of
a member country of the Security
Council on the Egyptian problem.
At the final discussion group,
when the members are familiar
with the problem, the entire group
will endeavour to arrive at a reso-
lution which will contribute to the
solution of the difficult problem
confronting us in the near East.
Then on February 12, represent-
atives of the member coimtries wUl
debate this resolution from the
point of view of the country repre-
sented. In this way, it is hoped
that a real contribution to the
progress of Unit^ed Nations may be
achieved.
Snlzterger was talfcinc on "Power
and Responsibility" at Convocation
Hall. He added that not only does
the West need "a revolution Id our
policy but also in our thinking
about the responsibility of power."
Sulzberger believed that "all otir
tribulations are not a result of Rus-
siia, but that some are a result of
our own miscalculations and even a
lew of our own foolishness."
He went on Co say that In view
ot the large scale defence plans "it
was not posstole not to interfere
in the affairs ol other nations."
"11 the Germans do not help to de-
fend tJie West, then Canadians . and
Americans must cross the sea to do
so. and this is intervention — at
least, to tJie German."
The real qocstioD, Snlzberrer felt,
was -will our moral strength keep
pace with our phiysical strengtli?
How will we react when we are
really strong to the constant pro-
vocations of the Russians, to our
higli taxes, to Russia's foxy wars,
and to Vishinsky laughing all night
at our disarmament proposals? This
is more relevant in 1952 and '53
than it was in 1950 and "SI."
However, Snlzbereer emphatically
beheved tJiat Uie West would match
its physical strength with its moral.
MacArthur's dismissal, he said, is
further proof that the West will
"deal with the problem short of
war — a major war."
Equally emphatic, Sulxbercer re-
jected any concept as to the inevit-
abilUy of war, "To those people, who
constantly say maybe tomorrow,
maybe next month, or maybe next
year, I say why not yesterday, or
last month, or last year, when they
had -a better chance."
•TVe are trying to create a police
force to convince criminals that
crime does not pay," he declared.
"We are building police stations all
' over the world. There is never going
to be total peace." In the question

In the University, to review the historical baclt-
giound of the Student Belief movement, and
examine the Ideals towards which is has worked
in order that we may better understand what
SHARE is doing, and why we should support jt.
The following is quoted verbatim from the Pro-
gram ot Mutual Assistance, which is the booket m
which conditions in universities all over the world
are described, together with a listing of the par-
ticular things, such as drugs and books and student
accommodation, which are needed in the particu-
lar universities. This is the booklet from which
SHARE chose the universities towards which It
will be directing its efforts.
HISTORICAI. BACKGROUND: Alter the tlr.st
World War relief needs among students called
into being European Student Belief. A project or
the world's Student christian Federation, it was
based on the principles:
THAT relief was to be administered on sound
economic lines;
THAT, except where students were physically
unable to -work, money should not be given out-
right, but funds should be used as capital to start
self-help enterprises;
THAT relief was to be administered impar-
tially without regard to race, nationahty, creed,
or any rther criterion than opportunity and proven
need;
THAT relief should be given with a view to
developing human personal contacts.
Fearful of the ,'"""7"- "Uamr'VI
favored lands, the slogan of ^.RS- hecarne ineJ
would care it they knew and now they *f , ^t"
dents around the world responded to the appeal.
Rom working together to the great common enter-
Sie of human survival they began U) want to

Srances and other meetings which be^n a
program of international «^'i«>''Oh f^,''"
^t of the relief enterprise. In ?"™P=^^^
Student Belief became International Student Ser-
vice for relief and international education. Between
Ihe wars as rehet needs declined, the ducation
and cultural program expanded through confer-
ences, seminars, study tours, and worn camps.
Then in 1939, a second time for the generation
ot those who created European Student Relief,
war engulfed the continent, and. with it. the lives,
libraries, equipment and buildings of another gen-
eration of students.
In 1943, bom of the unbounded needs to the
devastated countries ot the world. World Student
Belief was created tc coordinate the work of ISS.
Pax Bomana (Catholic), and World's Student
Christian Federation (Protestant). World Student
Service Fund had been created in 1937 to assist
Chmese students and professors in the evacuated
colleges and universities of China.
The appeal has never been for "charity" but
always for a shartog of the resources -which, by
accidents of history and geography, are found m
disproportionate abundance on this conttoent. This
appeal has always been for the relief of need
wherever there is an opportunity to met it. This
aM^eal has always assumed, as an integral part
of the sharing process, a maximum of the "human
encounter" out of which win grow a deeper under-
standing of the ways in which the defences of
peace must be constructed to the minds and hearts
of people everywhere.

is being moved from Karachi to

ing established in Karachi. As is
true in all the Universities of Soutb-
East Asia, student health is a very
grave problem. Generally poor liv-
ing condition aggravate the situa-
tion, making medical supplies of
prime importance to the univer-
sity authorities. The following is
quoted from a report of the Inter-
national Student Service: "Stu-
dents are suffering from pleurisy,
malaria, dysentry and TB. The
first effort towards improvement
will be an examination and mass
screening of all the students.
Drugs, practically non-existent in
this area, are urgently needed, as
well as all the facilities for hos-

some part of the medical supplies
which are so desperately needed.

Assam is situated in the north-

the terrible devastation of earth-
quake and flood. These twin dis-
asters, the floods coming in the
wake of the earthquake, killed
thousands of people . and left
thousands of others homeless and
destitute. Many university stu-
dents who had been assisted finan-
cially by friends during their
years of study suddenly found

University
Of Deiiii
The University of Delhi was
founded in this city in North-Cen-
tral India in 1922. It consists of
sixteen constituent colleges (lo-
cated in different places in the
: area of Delhi i. The Colleges have
been allowed to develop both as
separate institutions and
members of a large university
community. The set-up is similar
to ours here in Toronto. The
facilities of the various ftre
inadequate, with the result that
they are unable to handle the
thousands of students who want a
University education.
Teaching staffs often work
double shifts, teaching one set of
students during the day, and an-
other in the evenings, but even this
drastic arrangement has not solv-
ed the problem. Three col
leges for refugee students have
been set up in an attempt to handle
all the students. Some are ac-
commodated in dormitory build-
ings, but many of the students live
in tents on the grounds of these
"Camp Collee.es." Medical clinics
have been set up in some of the
colleges of the University, and
they are conducting compulsory
examinations of all students. The
University needs help in this
work, and in establishing addi-
tional clinics to look after the
needs of students in other colleges,

and nurses in their efforts to im-
prove the standard of student
health. They need S750 worth of
drugs as a minimum. We must
fill this need.
Indonesian
Unives'sities
At present there are two univer-
sities in Indonesia. Ont. the Fed-
eral University, is centered in
Djakarta. The* second one. the
•■Gadjah Made" University 'in
Djokjakarta was last year ac-
credited the National University,
In each of the centres there are
tremendous needs. The majority
of the students work to support
themselves, and In service which
they owe to the government. They
accept these national duties as
their share In the social develop-
ment of the country, but it is hoped
that p.s soon as the general situa-
tion Improves tliey will be free to
devote all their time to their stu-
dies.
One reason why Indonesia was
chosen by SHARE was because of
the determination . expressed by
Mr. Sashitaathadja at the annual
WUS Conference last July, of the
Indonesian students to become
themselves contributors to the in-
ternational program within three
to five years, in spite of their
present difficulties. One of the
most difficult problems which is
faced by the students of Indon-
esia is a chronic lack of text books,
in fact of any books at all.
Liabaries are either non-exist-
ent, or else are are filled with
empty shelves. Already the prob-
lem is being met by copying thou-
sands of notes on mineogranliing
machines, but more machines are
needed. With SI .025 we can buv
at least two. and perhaps three
mimeographing machines with
necessary supplies for delivery in
Indonesia.
Thailand
Universities
The students of Thailand suffer
from a lack of adequate hostel ao-
commodation. ignorance cf nutri-
tion laws and absence of adequate
health services. Students here,
as in all other areas of South-
Fast Asia, are livinq on a daily
diet which has a calorific content
which is below the recom'-.u-nded
minimum level. Onl'- f-- '■>-
inongkorn University has a small
— H i^T'i'-'unte healm : wee.
Plans are being made to e':Lablisli
a siudent health centre, and to or-
ganize nutritional health cducntioa
for the students. SHARE will help
in this effort by supplying $250
worth of drugs.

trwn College or Faculty.
As soon ftB the canvass has been completed, SHARE w through for
Ihe year. I feel that there are definite advantages in conducting the
lampnign in this manner.
The chief reason for which I favor the personal canvass type of
wmpaien to raise money for students in other parts ol the workL When
we give money lo help others, what is required is an act of chanty by
Bach one of us. Cbaxitv, if it Is to be truly sincere, requires a sacrifice on
■ wr part when we reach into our wallets. I do not think th^t we should
expect to receive anything back in return for our dolla^ except the
latlsfaction of having supported a worthwhile cause. SHARE is making
no attcnvpt to supply a good time for anyone on the campus.
U'liPn we all look back on this week, we will not remcmbor a series
of affairs at which we all had a good time. We will remember rather that
we made a tniTy sincere sacrifice to help those who do not have aJl the
Bdvantagps which happen to be our,=5. And this ls as it should be. SHARE
will not be the occasion for a good time for all. It will be an occasion
lor us to give up a little, and this after all is charity in the truest sense,
Auolher very imporlant factor in favor of the personaJ canv:=uSS is that
every doUar which is given to SHARE is a dollar wliich will help Asian
etud'entf. This Is closely linked to what I have said above. If we in
Toronto were to organize all sorts of functions to raise money, we might
collect a great deal fiom ourselves, but a large proportion of the money
Which each Individual student had .si>ent on the special events would be
swallowed up iJi the unavoidable operating costs which would be mcurred
by the events. The onlv expenses which must be covered out of the SHARE
funds which are collected this year are the publicity costs, and the cost
Of shipping the materials from Toionto to the universities In South-East
Asia.
And these arc expenses which would have to be covered in any sort of
fund-raising drive. By using the peisonal canvass type of campaign, the
6HARE committee has ensured that ai\ absolute maximum of the money
which we a,s students give to it will actually be spent to help the students
of Asia. This Is well worh rCTneml>ering as we enter SHARE week.
Those arc some of the reasons why I favor the type of campaign
■which we in the University of Toronto are conducting this year. I am
6UTe that we are capable of respondmg generously to the appeal which
Is beini^ made on behalf of students less fortunate than ourselves. Let's
prove this to ourselves. Let's SHARE.
Wliere does the SHARE committee fit Into
student organisation? What structure has been
used in planning the canvass of 11.000 students of
the U or T? How have the organizational prol>-
lems in some of the colleges and faculties been
met? These three qustions should be clarified for
thos who are still in doubt.
The External Affairs Commission of the Stu-
denU' Administrative Council was formed this
year to handle the work of NFCUS and ISS. Thl»
merger was effected to prevent the threat of dup-
lication of work. Thus a local body is doing tha
work of two national organizations.
The work Is divided up among nine commit-
tees: the Student-Faculty Committee; the Ex-
change Committee; the University Entrance In-
formation Committee, are examples. SHARE Im
the name adopted by this year's Campaign Com-
mittee. As in the other committees, a chairman
was appointed for SHARE, and a body of fifteen
other persons, including members of EAC and
interested formed the central committee. The work
of this body has been both administrative and
executive.
The main problem of ^lARE was to find tht
most efficient and effecfive way of delegating the
responsibiUty for 11.000 contacts. After much dis-
cussion, it was decided that each of the 23 colleges
and faculties of the University oould handle their
own canvass. The SHARE committee then would
be responsible for three main phases of the week-
long campaign. First, the contacting of the 2S
eolleges and faculties to seU the ideals of SHARE,
and to assist and suggest about canvassing prob-
lems.
This was achieved by contacting the 23 student
presidents In two open mcetinga. In these Initial
contacts, their support and advice and criticism
started the baU rolling. The presidents took th«
results of these meetings baok to their executive
bodies, received their endorsement, and appointed
a responsible member of their student body to run
th campaign In liielr part of the Campus. He, in
turn, chose a group of oanvassera to help him
during the SHARE week.
To farther aasiat In organization, a ten-man
public relations committee was set t^. During
these past six weeks previous to Campaign week,
these people have toured the Campus, talklns
to student executive bodies, mass meetings of can-
vassers, and open meetings of interested students,
selling the idea of mutual student assistance of an
International basis. This puibllc relations commit-
tee Included Fraser Mustard, David Fry, Bob

Response from (he people In charge Iq u

A capacity crowd of cheering spectators saw their Blue Basketball team put on
their best display of the season Saturday night at Hart House. The return of Eddie Bren-

tall, but outclassed aggregate from Curry College of Bo,ston by 42 points.
The final score of 79-37 might
have even been higher, the way
Lou Lukenda and Art Binnington
were finding the range. Lou was
high scorer for Varsity with 15
point-s and Binnington and Bren-

The sensitive seismographs of student politicians
have fluttered of late over the eruptions of the
Radio Gods of the ParUamentary Committee and
the CBC's Davidson Dunton. But these delicate
instruments may well break a spring or two at
the distinct rumblings of the latest and most
spectacular political earthquake to disfigure the
pleasant Canadian countryside. This one — im-
migration— is a more tangible affair than the any
dispute of the liberals of the air (happily this
could be little "1" or big "L") with those who
would suppress freedom of the air. It hits where
most Canadians are more sensitive than they are
to "Intellectual dispute" — that is in the belly of
employment and standard of living, both guarded
treasures of all Canadians.
InunjiTation is a truly Canadian problem —
one that has spread its lava over the Canadian
people long before freedom of expression came
to be an issue with us, or indeed before radio
itself was invented at all — regardless of whether
one accepts the view that Marconi or the Russians
had the first copyright on it. The issue at stake
has occurred with almost monotonous acrimony.
Aa long OS Canada has continued her leaps and
boimds expansion, demagogue politicians and sane
men alike have asked — "Do we want more people?"
and "Will our own men be employed still if we
import labourers from Europe?" Arguments social,
economic, political and sheer hysterical have been
bandied forth in reply — as often as not hopelessly
biased by the economic milieu from which they
come.
The issue was pointed up recently on the
highly-publicized arrival on the West Coast of a
group of two hundred Germans as immigrants.
"Why." cried delegates to the recent Congresa
of Labor Conference In Vancouver, "should our
Canadians go out of work while these non-union,
non-Canadians get aXC the jobs?"
The period from the end of the war has been
one of spectacular influxes of people from E^irope

a member of the steering com-

the resolutions introduced by
Canada to set up an international
Sctetariat: "a historic delegation
which may prove to 1» 'h^miBt
eventful thing in furthertog in-
ternational student co-operation
since the war".
"The Canadian delegation was
regarded as pretty serious by the
other members," Wax related, It
was also felt that we had none
of the antagonisms of many ol
the other countries. As a resuK
the delegates from every country
came to meet us and we got to
know them pretty well.
Students from 25 countries
were represented at Edinburgh in
what wax termed "a surpristag
attendance." They came fiom
western Europe, North America
South-East Asia, and South
America. There were blond Nor
weelans dark - eyed Italians

swarUiy BrazUlans.

Wax said he was particularly
Impressed with the European del-
egates, wiio seemed very mature
and serious. They were also very
well-versed in student problems,
he added.
One ot tihe reasons for this
seemed to be the greater exper-
ience they have had m student
affairs, he said. In Canada,
NPCUS is composed ot only siu-
dent councU presidents, nearly
all in their fhial years. But m
Europe, executive members may
be chosen from any year. Thus

A program of mutuai teohnlcal aid
between students of different lands
was one of the main topics of dis-
cussion when representatives ol
25 national student unions met ia
Edinburgh early this month.
SMAP (Student Mutual Assist-
ance Program) has been in opera-
tion for one year, since the Stock-
holm international student confer^
ence. And at its first birthday,
delegates to this year's conference
found its progress "not unsatis-
factory."
The purpose of SMAP Is to eciu-
aUze educational facilities througl*-
out the world. For example, the
British union, after nine months
of investigation, is sending threa
or four students particularly ia-
terested in special aspects of stu-
dent Work to West, and possibly
East Africa for three months next
fall.
Sooth African siudents have set
up scholarships for five "non-Ett-
ropean" students at Wit water-
sand University, In direct opposlr-
tion to a government regulatioa
forbidding such facilities to noiir-
Europeans.
The NcH^egian national umoa
has collected enough money to
grant an Indonesian student a
scholarship covering all costs (plus
pocket-money ) for four years of
engineering at Trondhelm Univer-
sity, When this was announced
in Edhiburgh, the Indonesian dele-
gate explained this was particu-
larly valuable, since there were
only 400 engineers In his entire
fcountry,
\ An international reference UtH
rary. supplying information on ev-
ery phase of student life, is one
of 13ie American contributions to
the program. Facts on every-
thW from health services to
sports facilities are available at
48 hours notice.
Chief criticism of SMAP at the
conference was the slowness with
which contacts had been made be-
tween the national unions who
wanted to give help, and those they
wanted bo help. The abscence at
Stockholm of delegates from re-
mote areas caused much delft?,
ttie report added.
I The conference reconuneaded
the exchange of national and inter-
national student teams to help oth-
er student organizations in Uie
fields of housmg, health services,
field work projects and medical
students, and cultural exchanges.
It also suggested scholarship ex-
change programs: international
seminars among bodies engaged tn
SMAP, and publication of tec^i^
nical information which would de-
scribe current student problem*
and some of their solutions.
In other fields, the conferenoe
also urged further tnternatiwiM
student exchange, and t±te develop-
ment of national student sporta
programs. It also urged the nar-
tiooal unions to investigate the
possibility lo their respective ooua-
tries of the use of student identic
cards. These cards, long In use
in some European countries, en-
title the bearer to lower trato
fares and admission to cultural
events, and cheaper restaurant
meals. Canada's is investigating tida
situation for NorMi America.

At least 14 debaters will be need-

in 1948 he left lor a summer school
in Oslo. Norway, on a fellowship.
He loved the oonntrr. "The
democratic socialism of Norway
has produced the highest stand-
ard of living in any country I've
seen, partly because of the high
educational and health standards,
and the homogeneity ol the small

"Evaluational Nihilis
Topic For Address
By Danish Professor
Talue Nihilism' is the subject of
the address by Professor T. J.
Geiger, visiting Professor of Socio-
logy from Denmark, that will be
heard by the Philososphical Society
and others interested in Cartwright
Hall Wednesday evening at 8 : 00.
That value jadgmenis are spur-
ious, neither true nor untrue but
rather meaningless and illegitmiate,
ifi aoi idea that sprang up simult-
aneously in various place . .
Vienna, England, America and
Sweden. In Sweden at the Univer-
sity of Uppsala, 'evaluational nihd-
lism' was developed in opposition
to the idea ol otojective values.
"Unfortunately", say,
Gedger. "value judgments axe not
meaningless. ' If they were, there
would be nothing against our pass-
ing them, he holds, but on the
contrary they are passed as sup-
posed statements, and so they are
not meaningless bit wrong.
Born in Munich, he was a pro-
fessor in Brunswick until 1933,
followed by live years at Copen-
hagen on a Rockefeller fellowship.
In 1938 he took the first chair of
Sociology in Scandinavia. Thrown
out by the Germans in IMO. he
spent three years "lying low". Then,
hunted by the Glermans in 1943. he
escaped to Stockholm, Sweden,
where he came in contact with

For the third year the AU-Var-
sity Quartet Contest, originated
by Gerry Hart and Charles Mc-
Curdy. will have its trials during
the week of January 29. It is
.sponsored by the House Committee
at Hart House.
The quartets dont necessarily
have to be the barbershop type.
Any type of quartet is eligible.
Dave Gardner, Assistant Warden,
said. He is In charge of the ap-
plications.
This contest has become cele-
brated enough that McMaster
University has asked to enter.
However, since there is a rule
that members of the quartet must
belong to Hart House, they can-
only be Invited as guests.
Although the judges are still to
be chosen, the eliminations will
take place during the sing songs.
They will be held at Hart House
from 1:30 to 2:00 every Tuesday
and Friday. The winner of the
two kuartets that reach the finals
will be at the Vie At-Home
February eighth.
The entry fonus are available In
the Warden's office for entering
until January 25th.
The fifrat contest was won by a
group called "Tthe Four Plush-
Red Ingle variety,
singing "The Tennessee Waltz."
They also appeared in the All-
Varsity Revue and Skule night. Al-
though they have all graduated,
dhey were called back by the Blue

club circuit.
Last year, with four quartets ei^
lered, Wycllffe College was the
winner. The song they chose was
"Honeybun." Although blazers and
grey flannels are customary, the
law faculty entrants turned out
dressed as judges and the Meds-
men as barber-poles.
The quartets ' are to be iudged
not only for their musical ability,
but on tlieir presenUitlon and en-
tertainment value, as well. Each
group must sing two numbers of
their own choice, and can dresi

By FRANK MORITSUGU
If Good Intentions and heavy mvestanent were the only ingredients
necessary for film quality. ACROSS THE WIDE MISSOURI (Loew's)
would be a vary fine film indeed. This beautifully photograpihed olf-beat
western is plumb full of high instincts and MGM gold. Unfortunately,
It is va€:ue and unsatisfying.
This does not mean that this Clark GaJole opus shouMbe passed up.
Director "WUliam ■Wellman (whose other westerns include THE OX-BOW
INCIDENT and YELLOW SKY) has tried an American western od
the grand scale. Using the beaut^y of the mountainous west Jor his
broad brush strokes, Wellman tells about the mountain men of the
early 1800s. The brush strokes are impressive in their swe^ and Tech-
nicolored grandeur, but Wellman has forgotten that Eome aharpiy
etched detail might have heightened the effect of his panoramic method-
An unglamorous and restrained Gable lead£ the mountaijj men, and
ACROSS THE WIDE MISSOURI! is concerned with one winter's
trapping of this gang. To ease his way into beaver-trapping^ in BlacUeet
hunting grounds, Gable buys and ■weds a voung Indian maiden (Maria
Elena Marques). All goes well, with only nature's haaards and beauties
to hold up things. Then comes conflict with a bellicose yoimg Indian
sub chief (Ricardo Montalban),
An Indian attack at a waterhole in the trappers' hcuneward trip
suddenly trips the film into high gear. So m the last two reels or so,
there is a Chase, a coming- to- grips, and Vengeance for foul murder.
B^ut we have been lost in the mountain fastnesses too long, we do not
know the people too well. Why for instance does the young Indian
villain take after the bawling half-caste babe on the nmawaff horse?
In Hollywood it is now fashlonahle as well as profitable to iwomote
mcial tolerance and under^standing. Often it has been more tolerance
than understanding, but the effort Is there. With this change of heart,
the Indian of America has come into his own; so unlike the Bad Old
Days, usually in the same picture we find both Good and Bad Indians
as well as Good and Bad White Men. And the Good Indian Is not
falttiful Tonto.
Miscegenation is also a new Hollywood revelation, with Indian
bridte who favor Hollywood- tyipe beauty rather than Pocahontas. Tliese
marriages are usually sliort-lived, one-haJI of the mates being killed off
tsy villainy.
In ACROSS THE WEDE MIS66URI, miscegenation Is treated with
mcce than usual respect, as are Indian customs and Indian character
and personality. And the unseen narrator is the grown-up son of the
Mountain Man and his Indian wife.
This narration is indicative of the semi -documentary technique
used to tell this story. Perhaps it is the unflinching attempt to adhere
to realism that makes the story seem both wandermg and sometimes
tedious. The language problem contributes here, with Old Indian Hand
Adolphe Menjou constantly interpreting the Indian dialect. GaJble and
his mate talk to each other with constant reference tO Menjou for
Interpretation. If you have patience, this will enhance your appreciation
of the noble motives of the film-makers. On the other hand, you may
wish thei-e were English sub-titles so the action could ^>eed \*p.
There is much humor aJid picturesqueness in the various episodes,,
of the film. -The mountain men celebrating at their rendezvous with
whiskey and square-dancing is a hilarious scene. A Scottish veteran
of Waterloo with aide-de-camp and bagpipes forms a striking part of
the mountain gang.
Continuing the New Year surveys, there are really good jwospects
for the 1952 cnovie season. ROMEO AND JULIET (the MOM version
with Leslie Howard, Norma Shearer and John Earrymore) is the Towne
Cinema's next attraction, while the Italian TO LIVE IN PEACE ■will
follow LAUGHTER IN PARADISE at the International, QUO VADIS
is to hit Loew's screen this month, while BRIGHT VICTORY (Arthiir
Kennedy as the blmded veteran) is to come to the Uptown.
Others more distant perhaps include the new Alec Guiness film,
THE MAN IN THE WHITE COAT, DECISION BEFORE DAWN (about
the young Wehrmacht sergeant who works in Germany for the OSS),
DEATH OF A SALESMAN (Stanley Kramer), SNOW WHTTE (re-Issue
of the Disney classic.
Negotiations are being made to get both de Sica's M!IRACIjE IN
MILAN, and the Venice Festival winner RASHOMON (Japanese). Even
more distant perhaps are films that have been made or are still in the
process like the Bogart-Hepbum offering, THE AFRIQAN QUEEN

Ross' "Trousseau Tea" was the most
delightful of the pieces I came upon
for the first time.
As far 3ks sins of omission are
concerned, the editors have been
truly sly. The difficulties of an-
thologizing humor are discussed
with th.orough forth rig>htness.
in both a preface and Miss Ray's in-
troduction, and any protester finds
that both his hands have been tied
behind his back. And with the dis-
arming opening sentence, 'The
funniest bit of Canadian humor
you have read is not in this book,"
the complainant has already been
deftly gagged. -
So my private beef is not directed
against tihis particular and most
excellent compilation. But if the
editors come to consider a Second
Book of Canadian Humour, I have
a suggestion or two. (Even if we
are becoming a timid and sensitive
race Cha-t cringes from colorfulness.
there seems to be much Canadian
humor untouched that is worth
resurrecting.)
The first request is for further
gleaning of our magazines and
newspapers. Evidence in' this an-
thology suggests that many nuggets
of Canadian humor have been
casually thrust out into backyard
oblivion, protectors of yesterday's
fishbones and potato peelings. This
research problem is a mountainous
one; but undergiaduate help, as in
the present volume, mig'ht solve
some of the difficulty. The other
suggestion is a plea for considera-
tion of West Coast newspaper
writer, also printed in an Ottawa
daily, is famed In tJie Pacific North-
west for his study of seagulls and
cormorant* and his accounts of
Henry Pludge's struggles with life
(with capital or small "L"). Another
possibility is Bruce Hutchinson, of
course.
I repeat, this is not a complaint
about the present book, a fruitful
addition to any library. But next
time, please.
Professor Robins himself is rep-
resented in A Canadian Book of
Humour with two pieces, an intro-
ductory essay on humor and an
excerpt from Cottage Cheese. The
piece about Gwen's visit to the
cottage is quite delightful, but I'm
beginning to think tiiat the first
essential for writing about humor is
bliat the writing must be humorous.
The Ryerson people are to be
commended for publishing a book
like this one, but the liook jacket's
ugliness and unimaginative ty-
pography and binding are not
worthy of the material presented.

months of the college year as well as a summer edition devoted to a
grand review of the year's College activities. Although this publish-
ing record is impressive we regret to report that the quality of th©
Review's output Is not. Taking a quick glance at the tables of con-
tents for the November and December issues, we found that out of a
total of twenty-nine listings, sixteen were devoted to poetr>'. Tliis
migfft lead you to expect that poetry was the Review's stirong point,
and, going on that aseumption we gave the poetry at least two read-
ings.
We emerged from our period of careful scrutiny with a
slightly denioniac urge to give the Rleyiew's group of poets a name.
Perhaps we could call them Tne Metaphysically Anguished School of
Poets and divide their poems into two main types, the I-wandered-
lonely-as-a-cloud-poema and the god-poems. This of course is unfair
to the contributors of humorous verse and the slightly superior efforts
of Tait. Morley and Elizabeth Revell. Yet we cannot refrain from com-
menting on the •search lor something or ot)her' theme which per-
meates the Review's poetry. Or for that matt-er, on the deeply moral
tone of the whole magaaine.
John Barton's "Western World" follows Toynbee and citea
the great morel ta-adition of Christianity as the greatest strength
of Western CivUization. Barry Watson has a story called "The Mor^l",
and G. A. E. Clarkson's "Wesstem Peace Council for the Prevention of
Preventative Wars" (which we liked very much) is subtitled "An
Efiigma With An Awful Moral . . ." PinalJy, the only short story of
any stature, "Magette" revolves around a moral conflict complete
with devils 'in the flesh'!
Such an onslaugrht of sober thought makes us turn with re-
lief to the Misses Smyth and Monro's instructions on "How to Make
a Thimble Cosy" without asking too many questions. Or 'Why Not
Jazz?' Why Not? The Great Search is too much for us.

Humanizing Of Art
Necessary: Grosser
THE PRINTER'S EYE
By Mouricc Grosser
Carke Irwin & Co., 1951, S3.
A painter himself, Maurice Gros-
ser is able to point out and em-
phasize the importance of the ma-
terials of the artist in determin-
ing both the way in which he
paints and the subject matter he
chooses. . According to Grosser,
painting as it is done today is the
result of two revolutions in tech-
nique. First the discovery of a
method of painting in oil about the
year 1400. and second, the rejec-
tion by Fragonard and Guarli of
'planned' painting which led to the
improvised 'on the spot" paintings
of the Impressionists.
Modem Art, Grosser contends. Is
still dependent upon an equalized
surface tension and improvised,
unplanned canvas. It differs how-
ever from Impressionist painting
in that the subject matter of mod-
ern Art is secondary to the com-
position and Is in most cases eith-
er indiscernible to the average
person's eye or felse capable of
many interpretations. The 'sub-
ject' is merely an image, and the
true subject, for the painter has be-
come the composition of the image.
Grosser feels that Modern Art's
pre-occupation with conipojition.
technique and particular images
has prevented It from seeing the
world and seeing it whole. He be-
lieves the unifying perspective
needed in a human one and advo-
cates bringing back a life-value in-
to art, a perspective 'adapted to
human sizes and to the shape of
man.' A painter's view of ulti-
mate reality. Grosser feels, can
only come through the painting of
people.
Many squawks of protest will
doubtless be raised concerning
Gros.'^er's position by painters who
feel that composition is all. Yet he
will certainly find support from the
people who have to look at Mod-
ern Art.

Archaeology Made
Simple By Ceram
GODS, GRAVES AND SCHOLARS
By C. W. Ceram.
McCleirond & Srewort, 1951, 56.25.
A German Scholar, C. W. Ceram
has attempted to do for Archaeol-
ogy what Paul de Krulf did for
Medicine in his popular book Mi-
crobe Hunters. Reviewers of Gods,
Graves and Scholars seem to feel
that Ceram has been too careless
in his presentation of the story of
Arohaeologj', but the average read-
er will probably be giateful to tiim
for having spared hbn as much
technical detail as possible.
Instead, C^ram has leaned heav-
ily on tlie dramatic moment when
gieat fmds were imrovered and on
the ner.sonalilies of the archaeol-
ogists themselves. The Mexico,
Greece. ISgypt and Babylon of an-
cient days are resurrected before
the readers eyes as Ceram unfolds
the e-xciting storj' of archaeological
Investigations of the past seventy-
five years.
This boob is nat recommended

chaeologj-. and even adults with
Just as general Interest in tJie sub-
ject may feel that Ceram talks
down to his audience. Certamly a
teen-ager would get a big thrill out
of a book like Cod.s. Graves and
Scholars, and Ceram is not to be
ridiculed for his attempt to present
to the pubh'j in an interesting way
the discoveries of a ver>- specializ-

GREEN SHADOWS; The Life of John Clare
By June Wilson.
Musson Book Compony, 1951.
Tlie Poet JoJm Clare (1793-1864)
is just beginning to come into his
own. The past thirty years have
seen a revival of interest in this
out-of-the-way poet who can hard-
ly be placed within t.he confines
of any literary tradition.
Born In the small vUla^ of Help-
ston in central-eastern England.
Clai'e reached his manhood know-
ing only the companionship of his
fellow villagers. He was a very prac-
tical man of sen.se, according to MiSd
Wilson, and had it not been for his
love of nature and impulse to
ttTite poetry he would probably
have lived and died an unknown
villager.
Fortunately for posterity he
sought a piBbltsi'ier lor his poems
and made contacts in London
through The London Magazine
which opened up for him a world
of intellectoial companionship such
as had been hitherto unknown to
lilm. In this respect hLs career was
somewhat similar to that of Robert
Bums, and Clare was torn between ,
Helpston and London, the natural
surroimdings that he loved, and the i
friends who stimulated his mind j
and helped him to develop. |
As the years progressed, and ;
Clare's poetry began tj gather an
audience, he became subject to long
periods of depression and melan-
cholia which culminated In a per-
sistent hallucination— Clare believ-
ed that his first -ft-ife was still aUve ,
and living with hiin along with his ;
second. Friends of Clare realized ,
that he was ^.lowly losing his mind |
and in 1837 Clare was placed in an ;
Asyhun at High Beech where he ,
stayed until his death in 1864. |
The lines penned by this solitary \
and deranged poet have never been i
equalled for their natural simplicity.
Witness "To the Butterfly."
"Oft I've seen thy little leg
Soft as glass o'er velvet glides
Smoothen down they silken sides;
Then they wings would ope and
shut:
Then thou seemingly wouldst
strut ..."
and
-Crimp- frilled dawfy. bright bronze
buttercup,
Preokt cowsbp-peepe. gilt whins of
morning's dew
And' hooded arum early sprouting up
Ere the white-diom bud half un-
folds to view,"
"I loved nature," Clare wrote in
one of his letters, "and painted her
botli in words and colours bettor
than many Poets and Painters . . .
in ray boyhood solitude was th«
most talkative vision I met with.
Birds, bees, trees, flowei-s all talked
to me Incessantly, louder than tha
busy hum of men, and v.\io so wisa
as nature out of doors on the green
gi'ass by woods and streajns undei
the beautiful sunny skj' ..." The
reader cannot help but feel genulna
simplicity of this poet and foi
those sujtficiently Interested here,
for the first time is a scholarly and
sympathetic treatment of his life.

Skims Fast
Over Past
THE INDIGO BUNTING
By Vincent Shecon.
MuMon Book Co., 1951.
The journalist Vincent Sheean
has written a personal memoir of
his short ao^uaintance with the 1at«
Edna St. Vincent Millay. Both
Sheean and the late poetess could
be tagged as highly emotional mys-
tics and the Sheean'.-? continual at-
tempt to find significance and Fipir-
itual meaning in every movement
of Miss Millay'.s prevents him from
creating a real portrait.
Sheean does not pretend to glvt
an accurate account of Miss Mil-
lay's life and skims ver>- quickly
over her past, protesting that
people built fantastic jtories ar.^und
MLss Mlllay that In the long run
prevented them from ever getting
to know her. We think that Sheean
has let his leelings get away with
him, and although we do not deny
that Miss Millay was an extremely
sensitive any delicate person. w»
don't thiidt that her life was on«
steady procession of beautiful mom-
ents and tJnild withdrawals.

t^'^I^ '"was we would humbly submit, a correct one. But to our way of

'^'^^^^^HBS. able to get away with thean should be heralded as symboliz-
decided trrend of thinking in a much more personal sphere than
^ ^eabn of world politics.
We have in mind Mr. WUbanks Smith, defensive tackle of tlie

'^T^^ms to have become acoepted practice in athletics and othea- en-
*^ors' ^'"^'^ Infra^^tions are allright if you can get away with them.
perhaps you have never heard- of Wilbanks Smith. We defend
relative obscurity by repeating «nce again that he is a symbol of a
i -QT 1951 trend — a symbol only — and that is why he receives oui-
Im^nation. You see, Wilbanks Smith is the man who broke Drake Uni-
I TsiLv halfback. Johnny Brigiht's jaw by three calculated, deliberate at-
ItBCks of sheer assault and battery with intent to do bodily harm, on tiie

ImOTed and standing off to one side. Instead of trj-ing to catch the ball

[ttie game, beioaie Bright wb« carried of! the field to have his jaw wired
[for weeks.
1^ The Daake athletic board called for Smitii's expulsion, but the
Ijeogue officials did nothing, claiming they had no authority. Smith's
[.university, tiie body who in the first instance should have taken action,
[fijsD refrained from doing anything. This was virtually on condonation
|.or his tj"pe of playing.
'VVUbanks Smith, therefore, represents with success that trend of

Iftway mfch it. In a partjcularly bitter football season, wliich saw so manj-

WVilbanks Smith exemplifies. T^ey had but to look at the highest offices

Iwieir sacred trusts.
^Vilbanks Smith did get away with it. To those people who think
\^ same way as he and the otheo- rule infringers here mentioned, he
' certainly rank as their Man of the Year.

shadow quality of a lor^st by moon-

a sunlit brook. In short, her im-
peccable voice control enables her
to ci'eate whatever kind of tone the
mood of a song calls for.
Her programme was well balanc-

I In the hundred odd years of its active
rtistence. thla UWversity has seen many
monsLer fiascos rise, leer and slinJc quietly
i one of tihe leeringest ever to rise Is
♦his year's Mock Parliament. First, the
Independent Member fiasco. Then, when
teie House sat, the complete schemozzle of
fcie procedure. Then, after the first ses-
sion had been held, the question of who
iwas eligible to have a seat in the Mock
parliament.
'ii We caoinot help wondering if the or-
^anizeis of the Mock Parliament are
fully aware of what they are doing.
|| On the Independent MeirJber cpies-
tion, the members of tlie Mock Pailia-
ment look a garbled stand. Hrst. ballots
mai-ked "Independenf were coxmted as
i^iled. There followed a change of heart
>s the Political Science Club, sponsor of
'the Mock PJuliament, realized that or-
Epanizing; an Ind^ependent Party would
jte a very difftoult feat.
1' A minor bill "was introduced by the
Bovej-nment, allowing for the admlt-
hance of two Independents to this ses-
Bon. The bill was defeated. Amendments
ipere passed, however, allowing for their
Inclu&lon next year. That question was
tieatly tied up, for the future at least,
but only after a few cublo kilometeara
)tf confusion,
ll. The second Modi Parliament fiasco
poncerned procedure. It was understood
(vaguely and by some) tiiat the rules of
the University of Toronto Debating
Union would apply to the Mock Par-
liament. But tUere was an important, if
^nnoticed, gap in those rules. They
neglected to deal with the procedure of
pi vision.
.' When the bell clanged for Division,
members of one Party were caueht with
their suspenders loose. No members could
leave their seats during Division. Aftcir
the ayes had been recorded, and while
the noes were being counted, the Speaker
noticed that some membera of the op-
[wsltlon parties were obstahilng. He told
tliem they could not do so, They were
forced to vote against a motion which
mey actually supported, but from which^
loTsome private reason, they wished to
abstain.
'Again three of the four parties did
not have whips on hand. The one which
did used Its whips to scrounge from the
Visitors' Gallery enough members for a
Division, one of the members thus ac-
quired was told what name to give if
anyone asked him.
Thia offence was a result of the third
liosoo — that of membership. Only «ne
Political club had enough members to fUl
its seats. The others filled them with
undergraduate supporters who were not
club members and with recent gradu-
ates.
A ruling of the old Mock Parliament
constitution apparently stated that no
one shall have a seat in the Mock Par-
liament who does not pay fees to the
Sbudents' Administrative Council. This
rules out Occasional and Graduate stu-
dents. Thia year, however, there was a
general understanding that "recent
graduates" would be allowed seats, as
long as tlie privilege was not abused.
It is regrettable that the political clubs
eannot arouse enough Interest on this
campus bo fill their quota of seats. It
would be even more regrettable to see
prlvil^es granted to this University
abused by outside political interests — a
fear that might quickly be realized if the
Political Science Club does not make
Bome definition of Mock Parliament
member^lp before the next session.
It would iie well if the sponsors of the
Mock Parliament would compose a con-
stitution stating definitely the terms of
membership and the procedure to be
followed; then make It readily available
to all political clubs on the campus.
And surely, by an individual approach.
It would be possible for the political clubs
to dig up the additional ten or so mem-
bers required to fill their seats. Other-
wise, the University Mock Parliament is
bound to Join the ranks of the farcical
uampua monsters which have jusV leered

Between shifts at the Dockland Settlement with the
Cockneys in East-End London, the writer, Wilham Glen-
esk, III Emmanuel, managed an afternoon with T. S. Eliot.
The first of two articles.
By WILUAM GLEN^K
a waif blown In from the street
*TTie modern audience has a greater
Bapacity for accepting plays below Its
level of appreciation than plays above
Its taste." So mused poet T. S. Eliot al-
most buried in books in his musty cubicle
At 24 Russell Square. It was a dull Lon-
don afternoon In August, 1951, when I
sat deep In an old armchair beside the
poet's desk.
My coining to see Mr. Eliot was not by
chance. Just prior to leaving for Brit-
tany for a fortnight's camp with sixteen
Cockney teen-agers from the Dockland
Settlement, I wrote to the poet, asking
him three questions on Mardcr in the
Cathedral, on the function of criticism,
and on The Hollow Men. It was a shot
In the dark. But back in London by
August, a card was waiting from Paber
and Faber, which read: '■Will you kindly
telephone me at your convenience, so
that we may arrange a time for you to
come and see Mr. Elliot. Yours truly,
Valerie Fletcher, Secretary to Mr. Eliot."
The time was set for August 20tJi,
Monday afternoon at 3. But I was using
a 1950 calendar, and scribbled the date
for Tuesday the 31st. Discovery came on
the tube enroute to 34 Russell Square
exactly one day late. At the door of the
Victorian mansion Mr. Eliot's secretary
raised both^^ brows, looked somewhat
fulstered, said: "Your appointment was
for yesterday, but I'll ask Mr. Eliot if he
wiU see you now." Word came from
above that he would, and I was ushered
up a winding stair to a closed door at
the end of the hall, and abandoned. I
knocked. A deep voice like a cello said
"Come in", and I opened the door to
T. S. Eliot, bent over a tier of books.
Wise in his horn-rlmmed spectacles as he
slowly got up to hold out a welcoming
hand, breaking a knowing smile. "So
glad you were able to come," he said. "I
suppose you got lost on the tube some-
where yesterday." In rather a hollow
laaigh I explained what happened, and
his eye twinkled^ think like Socrates at

about the role of Thomas the
bishop, its development and Interprg'
tion: "Just what is the essence of '^^^
a Becket in the play?" Eliot spoke f
of the initial performance of
Speight. "He was much too Pious g -
holy from beginning to end." That ,^1
the major flaw In his portrayal of ^1
[>art. Becket was a man of affairs wijl
the play opens, consumed with ^
and ambition. Then he evolves, under I
goes the refiner's fire, purifies his cjj^l
tlves, realizing "that is the gireatest trtj,!
son, to do the right deed for the ^
i;eason." Reaching the pith at martyi.l
dom, Thomas meets his nemesis at thjl
hands of four knights. EUot sees BeckttI
as awakening to the vision of
power, himself as the instrument, ajyi
not the focus. This power becomes a foroil
through him as a means from Roiis^l
Thus Thomas verges to humility.
Mr. EUot sees his play as much xsmM
than a historical drama, as a nwxienil
version in medieval morality form, itl
speaks to us. The sermon, direct to thil
aiudience, takes them unaware, their k.1
Blstanoe down, and lifts them into ttal
relevance of the play. Eliot has used il
medieval form to preach a modemi

Among the many inexplicable eccwi-

Is its hatoit ol raising the price of ad-

to be of extraordinary Interest. "The

custom; "An American In Paris" and
"Tales of Huffman" are others.
The Philosophy behind tails oMpeiialw

sume tliat their ordinary efforts are
worth the ordinaay price of adriUssion.
That this is a preposterous presumption

Ilition Station Opening
Among Pranks of Past
In gai^b varying from pajamas,
dressing gowns and straw hats to
formal attire, Trmity students in
1929 took Into tnclr own hands the
openmg of the new Union Station.
The ceremony, sponsored by fifty
members of the Athletic Associa-
tion, began at 1:00 a.m. Despite
hopes that police would appear to
enliven the proceedings, the law
enforcers never did show up.
It they had. the probable charge
would have been Impersonation of
a civic official. One students In-
troduced himself as Mayor Foster,
and declared the Union Station
open. However, the doors remamed
closed,
A second masqueraded as the
Prime Minister, and complimented
the populace for its patience during
the long wait for the opening of
the Station. A third called him-
self Mr. Meighen. and announced
his pleasure at taking part in the
ceremonies. StlU the poUce did no»
appear, nor did the doors open.
Subsequent students Imperson-
ated Mr. Bcatty and Sir Henry
Thornton, and spoke eloquently in
the conventional ceremonial styl^
expressing congratulations for pas*
work, and hopes for the future.
Bedecked In mortarboard, one
student, on behalf of the assembled
citizenry, declared the new station
■well and truly opened". His con-
clusion, that neither he nor ha
chUdren ever expected to see traJM
actually ruiming in and out of th«
bulldmg, indicates that the popular
attitude toward the Station In 1929
resembles that today toward Can-
ada's First subway.
The mock ceremony concluded
solemnly with the .singing of the
Doxology and several CoUege song*.

Trinity Adds
To Tradition
Yew Arrives
A budding tradition stands out-
side in the cold and the snow of
Trinity Quadrangle. It is a spindly
example of a tree, comparable In
size and shape to the saplings
planted along the Univei*sity Av-
enue boulevard.
Bat it is a tree with a story. Its
genealogy goes something like
this: it is a branch from a branch
of a yew tree tiiat comes from
Stratford-on-Avon. Its peditree
goes back to ShaJsespeare.
Planted last spring, the young
yew learned early to face hard-
ship. Shortly after it was planted,
a minor drought ensued, and Trin-
ity students feared its early death
But a co-operative effort Involv-
ing water buckets and showering
cans saved its life.
A great man once said: -Not
only by preserving old traditions
but by creating new ones as well
does an institution show its
strength,"
Today the yew trees stands with-
in a comfortable fence, bowing
brittlely to the wind. From appear-
ances. It does not have much life
left. Only the springtime will tell.
Trinity Wonderland
Mad Hatter Memoir^
Along the top of fche pillars in
the Trinity corridors live a variety
of old friends — there's the wild boar,
a mad hatter. Harvey, a bcrogrove.
the cock that thrice crew, a slim
lizard, robin redbreast and many
others. They say notliing as they
move within their carved scenes, but
if you Rtop to speak with them, they
give you quite an impression of
Trmity.
The wild boar says he feels quite
at home within the pseudo-gothic
walls where gentlemen still sip port
after diimer, the sporting of the
oak remains an inviolate tradition,
and mead (or our modem equiva-
lent) is hallow in the student's
sanctity.
Harvey hangs out under the But-
tery pool table in his leisure mo-
ments, giggling when he slams the
door on the tail of Provost Seeley's
gown, and twittering his ears at the
shocked expression on Bishop
Strachan's ghostly face.
The mad hatter and the boro-
grove do their best to maintain
traditional propriety by serving
crumpets, honey and tea with roait
chestnuts and stewed crocus bulbs
on special occasions, but being de-
lightfully made, they cannot revisit
the occasional cake-fight or bottle-
roll for added excitiment.
The cock that thrice crew ti-ies
in loud tones to impose all the
ponderous ritual of the Anglican
prayer book upon his neighbours,
but the armadillo who is a fhm
advocate of Plato and the sfim lizard,
who just couldn't care less, pay no
heed to him.
The Lizzard wandered into Trinity
some twenty years ago, quite im-
bued with the gaety of the days
when sheiks and flappers tripped
the light Charleston. His influence
hasn't been felt too much, but in
the predominance of cigarette hold-

A very ancient being, a sort of guardian angel of the Trini^

1925, with only a ^uU for company. j„.„™h= wilH
His name is Father Episkopon. and once a year he descends w

Father Epistopon ooncems himself with manners, morai^

vl<dated by the Inclusion of praise in the Scritoe's message. ^
Fatfaer Episkopon floartahed more healthily In tfee old dyas ^ ^

Here are some random samples of the great Father's utw^r^ ^
"The Father advises
a skittish Freshman of his aojiiatn^n^
forget his boyish ways, grow sideburns if he can (hoots of
and join in the customaa-y beer at dinner table. The delicate ^
of pale wights such as he have caused doting mothers and ^^Z^

your nimiber to grow sideburns, I advise another to remove^^^

Celebrated
By Blazes
Already renowned in Trinity an-
nals as the , year of The Great
Bottle-Roll, 1914 gained further no-
toriety as the year of The Great
Bonfire.
In the atmosphere of a primitive
witch dance, students from Trinity
and St. Hilda's joined hands and
danced round the eighty-foot blase,
shouting and singing.
The occasion was the celebration
(or consolation) ot a forthcoming
final deOjate with Wycliffe.
Preparations for the fire were ex-
tensive. Ammunition included
planks, logs, pilfered tar by the
barrel, trimmings from trees in the
park, boards from the hockey rink,
lecture - room chairs, gardeners"
tools a cellar door, and the cellar
stairs in toto.
-A general fire alarm was sent In
by a terrified policeman. Citizens
and fire trucks gathered. As stu
dents perceived that fire hoses were
being connected, and aimed in the
direction of the students instead of
the fire, they quietly disappeared.
The remaining Mwvd took a
thorougb, ducking from the fire
hoses.

•a«hed twb long ladders

of a livery wagon which was
brought ihto the hall to add the
necessary height. The ladders bent
in the middle, but the painter man-
aged to climb high enough to leave
his sign on Uie brickwork over the
window. By 1925 the authorities
were so resigned to such goings-on
that they failed to stop a group
who painted their class number
under the central tower in a place
where it could be seen from Queen
Street by anyone who looked up the
front drive through the stone gate.
The early students mu.st have
really wanted a university edxica-
tion. There was no central heating,
each room had a little fire with a
chimney which, either blew the
smoke back into the room or else
created a draught. Gas jets were
not added bo lighten the halls untU
almost 1888. Until then every trip
down the dark halls was like Stan-
ley going after Livingstone and
hoping he wouldn't run into Vic-
toria Palls.
At this time every undergrad had
to be in the college building before
ten on week days, and twice weekly
were allowed to stay out until noon.
The student not only couldn't miss
chapel and meals, but also had to
attend lectures. And as a further
restriction to their wanderings,
they were forbidden to visit some
of the taverns. Any Trinity man
who got 'plastered" h^d to do it in
the better palaces. Of course the
average student was only 16 years
old when he entered Trinity.
At present the district around
old Trinity has by no means an
English atmosphere. Around the
corner from the college, on Dundas
St., the barbershops advertise In
foreign languages and there is a
translation office for the eastern
European languages.
But the tobogganing is stiU good
behind Trinity and there are even
tea leaves In the garbage along-
side the waUs.
Trinity Is full of atmosphere. It
has its Gothic arches, heavy doors,
s&cluded comers. It has Strachan
Hall and academic gowns, stuffed
blixls and cakeflghts. In short. It
fairly breathes atmosphere.
And for the past hundred years,
TYlnity students have been trying
to t>ulld a character which can live
up to this atmosphere.
The resulting combinations have
been weird and wonderful. Tweed
qjorts jackets and Tyroleaii hats
mingle with grey flannels and furl
ed umbrellas. Even the occasional
bowler is in evldejice. And there are
more phony Knglish accents ■ at
Trinity than pseudo-int^ectuals on
the rest of the cajnpus.
0nl7 a few people each year suc-
ceed in achieving some kind ot
character commensurate with the
coUege. However, out of all the at-
tempts come some common factors
which make uip what might be
caUed the TRTNITy CHARACTER.
First of all, the true Trinityite
tries to be as English as possible.
This has something to do with his
ties with the Churcli of ESigland,
and family histories going back to
the Wars of the Roses or the Em-
pire Builders. At any rate, he tries
to follow the Oxford and Cambridge
tradition, as glorified In Chums and
the Boy's Own Annoal. The only
things missing are a long coUege
muffler and a river by which he
can ffni^jw.
Anglican
College
Goes Red
When Trinity goea on the field,
it sports the traditional colors, red
and black.
However, not red and black but
blue and grey are actually the of-
ficial Trinity colors. Originally, red
and black were the athletic colors,
but they gradually edged out the
official blue and grey. The Trinity
men's blazer is now a red one. The
Trinity type who wishes to show
an extreme of school spirit sports a
flowing scarf In red and black.
The only remaining veeUge of
the old blue and grey can be found
in ttie St. Hilda's blasera
By TOM LANK
For some reason the college seems
to have hit on the ESiglish diplomat
as the class it most \^ants to copy
As a result, Trinity types are ai-*
most imiformly siiave and polished.
Quite often tliey are good stjeakers,
(Trinity debates are among the
best on the campus.) But too often
they tend to be too Anthony Eden-
ish, and succeed only in looking
foolish or pompous.
•niey like to be Breath- of- the-
Emplre, and to cry out about the
thin red line and the dignity of
majesty. Also they stick to the Old
School Tie, never forgetting they
went to TCS. or Upper Canada, or
even UTS. These collegiate ties are
very bindine at Trinity, where an
occasional tear can still be seen
glistening whenever the old school
is mentioned. Trinitjltes also like
to wear their fraternity ties: these
have the advantage over the old
school type in that they can look
partlcidarly dapuer worn as bows.
But Trinity types look not only to
their own past, but also to that of
their college. Tradition plays an
important part in every day llfe.
A radical who goes to dirmer with-
out his gown is apt to be booed out
of the dining hall. Snatches of
patriotic Greet are tossed about
(these have the added advantage of
confounding any outsider t . Tlie
Worms' initiation is carried out
faithfully every year — although the
Cakefight has been missing re-
cently. And (except when thei"e are
spare false faces around), reverenc*
surrounds the College's foimders.
Like all good Englishmen, they
like their pipes, and there aje ail
kinds represented in the Trinity
halls. I/jng ones and stubby ones,
straight bowls and curved ones,
briars and Sherlock Holmes. Even
ornate, carved ones, glistening with
ivory and silver caps. No matter
what kind it ts. the pipe is thtt
symbol of s Trinity man.
They also like their beer. Trinity
Is the only place in the University
where you can keep alcohol. Beer
and. whiskey are always passing
through the hall porter's lodge. And
Trinity men just love to ask other,
less fortunate types, to come up to
their rooms for a quick brew. These
invitations are among the best part
of the Trinity Character.
As a matter of fact, th(<' are th»
best part of the Trinity charactee.
There is no question about it.

conclusion In her book "For College
Women . . . and Men". Her own
book she describes as another
teachhig book, but meets this diffi-
culty: "The Young Man and Woman
have learned about learning at
school . . . and naturally they feel
there is nothing very new for them
to encounter when they come to
college. So they are not apt to ask
many questions about it. nor to pick
up a book of this kind."
But Mrs. Kirkwood nevertheless
goes on to talk about life of the
university, designed to explain the
characteristic of the tmlversity sltu-
' ation as against that of schouls.
She discusses the questions of
friendship, marriage, marital sexual
relations, standards and loyaltie-t,
government at college, and religloa
for the .student.
Her tlilrty years on the University
of Toronto staff Include sucii posi-
tions as English lecturer and Deaa
of Women at University College,
and at present lecturer and Dean of
Women at Trinity. The life at St.
Hilda's revolves around Mrs. Kirk-
wood. She takes part in most of
the activities, and spends much tim»
talking to the girls of the college.

7he Frogs' Croaked In Greek
At Semi-Centennial Celebrations
A distinguished array of gentlemen in morning
coats and top hats, and ladies in bustles and
Bporting enoonous ostrich feather hats settled
down on a hillock beside a brook in the heart
of the city of Toronto.
Frm a little grove opposite them came the re-
scinding' phrases of Aristophanes; -Epotitone
eothon, O despota, ophois ay gelosin hoi theom-
Inei?" (Shall I crack any of the old jokes, Blas-
ter, at which the audience never fail to laugh?)
The year was 1902 and the occasion for pre-
senting The Progs in the original Gre^, was to
celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the founding
of Trinity College, and was an event unique in
history of drama at this university.
It was performed in a natural amipMtheatrs
along the banks of a Creek at the old College on
Queen Street in the days when there was still a
romantic little brook winding its wa.y through
the heai t of the gTx>unds.
In preparation for weeks, the play almost failed
to come off. The uncooperative employees of the
Toronto Street Railway Company went out on
strike a day before the play was to be performed.
As a result Aeschylus, Euripides and Pluto, and tihe
Director, found themselves nest morning under
arms in the drDl hell The Trinity branch of ttie
Quean's Own Rifles were going to help, atong with
others, to be sure, to quell the uprising.
Utter confusioD, In the bid Trinity quad was
the result, as other students not In the militia
tried to cram the three top parts at the last
minute\
But fale and Trinity won out. The strike collaps-
ed while the students and guests were taking part
to the special banquet to honour the anniversary.
The three players rushed back to get into their
costumes and the performance continued as plann-
ed.
For the benefit of those people who w«re un-
propitiously unacquainted with Greek, an elabor-
ate program and translation was provided.
IProm reports of students,, who tjook part In tib«
play, it was a great success. Bacchus rode magnifi-
cently down the Charon in his barge and the frog
chorus croaked out ita chant "Brekekex. koax,
koax," with great verve, Irom beJiind a hedge.
The human donkey, who carried the corps*
down to hell, was declared to be the most remaifc-
able on the Canadian stage, by one of the oontem-
jjoraiy critics. (The corpse, incidentally, never
quite gets to his destination in the play. Dedarizig
obstinately to Dionysius, who was on his way to
hell to fetch Euripides back to hfe, that he would
rather be sent back to earth again tnan give
Dionysius a ride for less ttian two drachma, he
did Just that.)
Wearing Of Tke Gown
Trinity has lost a lot of its tradition since the day when cap and gown had to be worn
at all meals, lectures and Chapel services. But the gown remains.
rti the 1850's, students were required to wear cap and gown on all trips to town.
(The Queen St. site was in practically open country at that time.) The administrators felt
that the wearing of the gown might make undergraduates conduct themselves in gentleman-
I
ly farliion. The result was a con-
siderable razzing by the populace,
who interpreted the academic garb
as an effort at superiority and snob-
bishness.
Fi"equent]y gowns were hidden in
ft ravine behind the College, but
being caught without one in town
meant writing out the Chapel ser-
vice in full.
When it was decreed that gowns
need not be worn while sleighing or
tobaggoning, it was not a rare sight
to see a TYinity man emerge from
one of the town's bars with a to-
boggan over his shoulder.
Ones a Trinity man was seen in
ragged, flowing gown, doggedly fol-
lowing a female up and down Yonge
Bt. Soon after, the ruling requiring
all students to wear cap and gown
to town was abolished.
Ori^ally, all VniverBily of To-
ronto students wore the gown, but
when the rest of the XJOiversity
abandoned it, Trinity persisted,
characteristically Old Schooil in its
leanings.
Today, gowns can still be seen
covering the figures of girls clad in
shorts, on their way to and from
sporting events on the Trinity Field.
When the Trinity CoUe^e Literary
Institute debated the resolution
that "absurdity is tftie sqjice of life,"
one enthusiastic upholder of the af-
firmative appeared clad only in his
gown. In E3>ite ol his claim that he
was not violating any rules pertain-
ing to academic nakediiess, the of-
fender was forcibly ejected by the
Sergeant-at-anns and tbe Fnaii-
. men.

Contrary to usual practice, bottles were collected fai advance
.T*je Great Bottle-Roll. The proced^ire was normal until the bottle

old chemical equipment — fladcs, t«st tubes, retorts — stored in the
uanent since the days when Trinity used to boast a Medical OoUe^e
"oe^^artjnent of Science.
A window was broken and the storeroom looted, with the phm-
jjgififT- divided impartially between the two sides, under a temporary
Ice. Then the game resumed, with increased vigor. Stars of the cricket
^ captained. It was regarded as a special achievement when the
lection of two chemical-laden bottles resulted in on explosion.
The Great Bottle-Roll of 1914 ended only -n^en a great cloud
yellowL-^h -green smoke began to rise from the floor. But the odor
appeared within a couple of month.
The imposition of fines on all was an excellent stimulant to
ttle-rolls. since participants felt that they might as well get their
iney's worth. Students trapped in their rooms by the flying glass of
^914 bottle-roll felt especially grieved, since the fine that time was $7.
Boltle-rojls could occur nowhere but Trinity', the only College
lere it was permissible to have liquor in rooms. Liquor may still be
I in Trinity residences for College functions, by the simple process of
ecWng it in at the desk.
When the Trinity men's residence was moved from Queen St.
Trinity House at St. Geot^e and Harbord Streets about 1925. bottle-
Ds continued. The building was running down, and students were will-
; to help accelerate the process. Apparently Trinity authorities were
t particularly concerned over the bottle rolls; at least they were never
tlawed.
But now, it seems, the bottle-roll, loudest and most colorful of all
inity traditions, is defunct.

Seated casually behind a huge

all Trinity meetings without
failure as a matter of course for
he found the aroma of good
cigars conducive to peaceful
snoozing and . slightly exotic
dreams. Smiling to himself, he
admitted that his attendance at
Chapel was somewhat perfunctory,
but added that he always went

by whispering into our ear that

Ambrose hesitated. Yes, he re-
plied. There was one thing that
had bothered him for some time.

Harrier was another old timer.
It was called cross-country running
and steeplechase then. The big race
was run every Oct. 27th and was
followed by Beer Supper. Though it
conjures up visions of mad de-
bauchery with scads of crumpets
and tea and mild port, we are told
t^iat It was the foreruimer of today's
athletic banquets.
Back in the 1890's, Trinity had a
sporting professor. E. W. Hunting-
ford, who had been a devotee of
harrier at Oxford and continued
the exercise after coming to To-
ronto. The first momuig, he created
somew(hat of a sensation when he
set out from Trinity clad in his
running togs.
A great hue and cry was raised
and chase given. His pursurers didn't
reckon with Prof. Huntingford's
fleetness and condition and he
easily left them panting far be-
hind.
Following the federaUon In Var-
sity in 1904 and ttie move to Queen's
Park in 1925, Trinity really took
its place in college sports. They've
w<m the Mulock Cup for football
only once since 1894 but they've
come close often enough. In soccer
Trinity was luckier, winning in 1942,
1948 and 1949. Hockey they won in
1920, 1938 and 1939. But as for the
Reed Trophy, which is more signi-
ficant. Trinity has won three times
and been runner-up five times.

ed the sorry state of affairs on the campus, as expressed bri
the new architectural monstrosity. I
What, asked the writer, happened to the age-old. mellon.!
ed bricks on the ends of the two parallel wings? Why did HiJ
new building have large windows? What happened to
imitation lead bars which had formerly cut the windows intol
a nice compromise between prison bars and a monkey cage!|
Why does it not have a carefully misplaced tower with il
papal tiara on top? Why did coffee replace the ancient tal
bags? Why did callipvgian coeds replace the vestal virginJ

like THAT on an ancient campus like THIS ? Just imagiii(|
no towers, no gargoyles, no nothing. . . . Ah, wrote John, I
hell with it!
The next day. The North Wing disappeared — or »ii|
sent away. Gone were its people, coffee, twelve tone musiJ
books and functional furniture. Gone were the reproductic"!
of Picasso, Braque and Roualt. All that was left was a miil
placed collection of T. S. Eliot's poems, two callip.veial
maidens and three empty beer bottles. I
It is quite obvious that The Proud Campus has attemp«

its past. Fortunately, a few historical documents are still

In Mock Session
The second Mock Parliament of
the year v/ill be held tomorrow-
night at 8:00 p.m. in the legisla-
ture in the Parliament Buildings
with the Liberals forming the gov-
ernment. As a result of the de-
feat of the MacDonald-Cart4er
Club when they formed the last
parliament, the party with the
second highest number of seats,
the Liberals, will have to form the
second government.
Al the meetiag of the Mock Par-
liament committee yesterday the
Liberals disclosed their bill on Re-
sale Price Maintenance which they
will try to have passed on Thurs-
day. In a preamble it is st-ated as
an act 'Forbidding dealers from
fixing specific or minimum re-
sale prices for the commodities
tliey control.'
At the same meeting John Med-
cof. tbe representative for the Lit)-
crals asl:ed in a motion that the
names of the members should be
submitted to the clerk of the house
before the Mock Parliament. In
lepiy. the conmiittee repealed the
position of last fall that Graduates
taking an active part in the Uni-
versity could hold seats in the Par-
liament.
Claire Bacchus, PoU-Sci chair-
man of the Mock Parliament Com-

cost incurred at last Thursday's
ParUament totalled S2I.50. which
would have to be borne by the

night at Hart House 59-57 in the last ten seconds of play,
after coming out from behind a 51-54 deficit. Bill Huycke

OUR READERS WRITE
Edueatioii Needed
Editor. The Varsity:
I would condemn neither the noblHtTy of The
Varaity'8 "BXtucation Theme" nor the desirability
oi effecting a change in the sphere of education
—what I do condemn is the failure to achieve
these noble ends.
It is obvious that a certain amount of thought
and research went into that publication. Many of
the ideas in it are good. However, they axe not
new. What you have done is to quote bits of ideas
.hat have been our philasophy of life for ages.
Let us not waste time setting standards which al-
ready stand, but let us rather start the struggling
mass towards them. "How to get there?"— is the
vital question.
To this end The Varsity was lacking. There was
nothing which brought us any cJoser to the larger
issues involved.
Let us consider education in general rather
than in ternis of university education alone.
The divorce of education from life and the laclc
of vital meaning in schooling is a malady which
few tliinking people would deny. It is something
which is not locaJ to any university nor to any
comanunity. We all, including myself, suffer from
it and it is difficult for a patient to write of a
cure. It seems that the problem is directly in-
soluble and that, for expediency, the only thing
to do is to sticlc out the accepted pattern and at-
tempt simultaneously to find one's own goals and
utilize the educational resources in achieving
these goals. But. doing this alone does not allow
for progressive social reform. Consider for a while
those goals and motives which are in effect in
our society.
Without the awakenings of thoi^hts and pro-
gre^ of ideas into positive actions there can be
little doubt that we will develop those vital forces
which are reqiured for the reconstruction of the
present.
Recognizing the necessity for a remedy indi-
cates the presence of a disease. Realizing the need
for a different and more balanced outlook is it-
self a major accomplishment. Questioning the
values of an education and its role in our con-
cepts of a better society is essential to a keener
approach. But these alone are not enough! Ideas
by themselves sire worthless except as they pass
into actions.
Pot ages philosophers have been interpreting the
world diffeiently. But the point is to chuj,
We would be wise in learning from the e^D^* k\
ee and thoughts of others, but we must furn!'^'^
velop these ideas, integrate them with ou
philosophies and apply them to the re^uirg^*^ %
We cannot tolerate a so-called educated

emotionally immatui-e. Granted, we are ^
dividuals. not all with equal mental capacit-
with tlie same abilities in directing our T
but only I a desire for and the achievement
truer self-understanding, only that will ' -
us to see things in their higher possible f"**"*
Once we have our peace of mind and know
we are, we can better judge what to do ann'^**
to do it. S
Which brings us to the point of this lette
principle of liberalism is the right to free] '-^
quire into the economic and social strucbu!
our society. I maintain that our educational^
religious institutions do not foster a spirit^
liljeralism. Nor do oui' newspapers or other
mercial interests. I maintain that few if ajw '^T^'
have even a good imowledge and understand'
of the active forces in our society and their elf
on that changing eociefy. Therefore, i wish^*^
propose this project for your consideration ^
Namely, the initiation of a series of articles h,
responsibly qualified men and women, oh aJi tjj^
various and important aspects of life in our
ciety; dealing with the methods, place and im
portance of each activity and treating the slioru
comings of each witii constructive oriticism.
By this you would be doing a great service to
the university as well as to the community y
large. By engendering doubts and stimulating th^
minds of all of us such a scheme could pronioia
the social awareness of many to the realization
of their duty to the society which they ought to
serve and of which they axe a part.
We mu3t develop an Intellectual Integrity to !
enable us to weather the exposure of our woundt 1
and the recognition of our weakiiesses. Unless 4 a
free state has as its basis and at its core a gn)u{i|
of intellectual leaders and is developing an intel. I
ligent populace, its people in time will become e
slaved. Sm-ely enslavement is not what we want! I
The whole issue resolves itself to the question I
of thoughts and actions. For as Henry Georgs |
once wrote, "Until there be correct thought, thera
cannot be correct action; and when there is cor- 1
rect thought, rigiit action will follow".

Trinity Expose
Trinity College, the ancient stronghold of John Strachan,
has always aroused curiosity among the uninitiate. Indeed;
Trinity, hidden away behind its Gothic facade and crowned
by Byzantine towers, has always been something of a mys-
tery to the rest of the campus. _
Everyone has an impression of Trinity, however. It is
usually compounded of tea and crumpets, Auden and Eliot,
beer and chapel services and other odd miscellany.
The Varsity believes that the time has come (after all,
this is Trinity's hundredth anniversary year) to penetrate
the cool exterior, to get to the heart of the college. We have
joyfully performed this task as a service to the campus.

Studies Come First
-Simcoe Hall Note
It's impossible to start a student union
project at the present time.
That's the latest word from Simcoe
Hall regarding a student union building.
It came as part of a letter answering the
SAC request for permission to hold a
fund-raising drive for the union.
However, the letter ended on a more op-
timistic note: Dean Bissell and the Comp-
troller would be glad to discuss the matter
further with the Student Union eommrt-—
tee.
In the IcHer, Dean Bissell— the Presi-
dent's Assist?.nt.-.stated two points of
general policy which "might influence"
any decision the University should take
regarding the campaign. Dean Bi.ssell
wrote the letter — which was read at last
night's meeting of the Students' Adminis-
trative Council— for the President, who i^j
in India representing the National Council
of Canadian Universities at an interna-
tional conference.
The -first point of general policy men-
tioned by Dean BLssell is that the univer-
sity is concerned with multiplication cf
financial appeals. (In this connection he
was presumably referring to possible con-
flict between a student union drive and
the University's own Building Fund cam-
paign.) He also said the administration
was concerned with the danger of dissipa-
tion of effort.
"The strongest factor," the letter con-
tinues, "is that the administration must
be concerned first with meeting academic
needs." By that the Dean said he meant
not only increasing the facilities for
teachmg and research, but also more gen-
eral provision for scholarships and fel-
lowships.
"These responsibilities will tax the Uni-
versity's sources to the utmost", he added.
These difficulties and building restric-
tions (which Dean Bissell called only a
complicating factor) would make it im-
possible at this time to start a student
union project, the letter said.
The Council decided to go ahead with'
plans to set up a stuijlent union building
ti-ust fund, and to arrange a meeting with
Dean Bissell and Comptroller Rankin with
a view to setting up such a fund.
•This meeting will lay the problem of
the student union squarely in the adminis-
tration s lap." commented Student Union
Commissioner Cliff Wilson, Arch
■The Council decided in November to
seek permission to hold a campaign to
raise money to build a student union

One of the repair men said tliat
it looked as if the cable had been
punctured by hot metal from a
welding torch. The large healing
pipe was re-wrapped this summer
and steel supports were welded at
that time. The telephone cable
had been suspended by stael cables,
but these had been cut and the |
cable dropped to the floor of the

The hole in the lead cable cas-
ing did not cause any trouble un-

Fredericton, N.B.— (CUP)— The
Students' Representative Council
(SRC) at the University of New
Brunswick received a pleasant
Christmas surprise — to the tune of
nine hundred dollars. It seems
that the money is a surplus from
council funds of last year, unre-
' corded in the budget. At the time
of the budget meeting of the coun-
cil last spring, the year-end state-
ments were not completed by the
Bursar's Office and the omis-
sion was not detected. When the
statements were released, the dis-
crepancy was obvious.
US Woos Franco
Policy Deplorable
Debate Decides
American foreign policy came under fire in the firsi
Hart House debate of the new year. The house heard Ameri-
can foreign policy called Vstupid, self-interested and selfish"
and Senator McCarthy referred to as a "slimy creature".
The resolution that "This House deplores the leadership
given by the United States of America in world affairs" was
upheld 45-28.
Speaking for the resolution. Dave Rose IV UC, claimed
that there is "a growing crisis of confidence between the
Americans and their allies." Rose criticised United States
woojng of "fascistic Franco" and said that it was a "slap in
the face" for the American allies.
He suggested that "our present difficulties" were a re-
sult of American bungling in the past few years.
"Even if Bolshevism had never
been heard of. the revolutions in
South East Asia would have taken
place," declared Elmer Soptia.
Law. second speaker for the reso'
lution. Tliey were the result of
American Asiatic policy he said.
Referring to Nehru as the "last
friend we have in Asia". Soph a
condemned the long delay of
American aid to India.
He believed that criticism was
needed and felt "that a lack of
criticism may foster ttie growing
belief that any criticism of United
States policy was subversive."
John Mordcn. Wycliffe. first
speaker for the opposition assert-
ed that it was American leader-
ship that had kept us from a third
world war. He said that the Ameri-
cans had taken "a realistic ap-
proadi to Franco in Spain and Tito
in Yugoslavia", "What was sought
was mutual aid from the godle.ss
masses behind the Iron Curtain."
The United States Morden felt is
giving us that breather to get our
ideas into and behind the Iron Cur-
tain.
Also speaking against the resolu-
tion Dwigdt Pulford, Trinity, recog-
nized that the United States post-
war policy has not been perfect.
Herbert Hoover and General Mc-
Arthur "are on the lunatic fringe
of American policy", he said "but
every country has a few of these
people".
America has leaders who want to
make other countries strong and
wlio want to improve the standards
of the people by a policy of Rus-
sian containment. Pulford stated.
"There are greater signs for world
peace now than any one would
have thought a year ago", he satd.
Professor P. H. Underbill, Honor-
ary Visitor and Opposition Speaker,
indicated that United States policy
was based on the fact that 'in
dealing with Soviet Communism
we are faced with an aggressive
force aiming at world domination".
"Having built op our power w*
will negotiate from iwsitions of
strength." he continued "and this \t
the way out of "maintaining our
kind of peace".

South East Asia.
The government is providing
assistance to countries in South
and South East Asia both through
the UN technical assistance pro-
gram and under the Colombo
Plan for the co-operative econo-
mic development of .the area. If
Canada's participation in these
programs is to be a success it is
important that there Is to be wide
understanding of their purpose.
The campaicia now being carried
on in the University will help to
acihieve tha t imdersLanding as
well as add materially to the
aid brang provided.
Congratulations to the students
of the University of Toronto, in
the initiative they have taken.
I wish them every success in this
admirable project.

Thursday, Januai
balcony viewpoint
BY DAVID PEDDIE
Lillian Hellman's THE AUTUMN GARDEN Is a subtle and
carefully drawn picture ol the decay ol the gentility ol the Ameri-
can South. She looks into the lives of eight specimen southerners
■who have withered and faUen since the old simimer hey-days, and who
are coming baclc to the same guesthouse every year to ti? to pretend
for a Uttll longer that everything is as it was. Only the dissolute
and lonely Ned Grossman sees, ttiis decay and decides the time has
come to break with the past, for him the strain was too much.
But the decay is revealed to the rest of them through the
arrival of an old friend Nick Denery (Frederic March) who having
roamed abroad pretendmg to be an artist comes back and tries too
]oudlv to pretend that everything is as It was when he l«t. It is his
Interference with the others and his very coarseness that reveal
them to themselves, for they realize that he merely suffers a more
blatant form of their malady. Fortunately, he does not feel ttie pain
since he has his wife to look after him and sustain both his ex-
penses and his ego. , ^
The German girl Sophie is the only person who wants some-
thing from life: that has the guts to face life. Miss Hcllman neatly
pits each of her southerners against her to show how pale and weak
thev look beside this tiey but vital young person. The only ones
that do not look too shabby are Ned Grossman and the old lady
Mrs Mary Ellis who belonged in the original summer hey-days.
For the others one can only feel sorry— except Nick of
course- he doesn't need our pity for he has his wife and he is more
the object of our laughter. Certainly Mr. March got all the laughs
possible— especially in an almost pathetic seduction scene where he
tries, thiough habit more than anything to make love to Sophie, and
then passes out on the couch where she sleeps. But it is to his credit
that Mr March in an almost tearful scene with his wife has the
audience sympathizing with his philandering and cheating. Nick
Denery is disgusting, .vet when he leaves— still tlie same— a noisy
'toucher' h^ is as likeable an old fool as one_could meet.
Florence Eldridge played Rose Briggs — another almost dis-
gusting character. Rose, a general's wife, had never been graced
with brains but she was compensated with an especially long and
active tongue. She refuses to take her husband and his suit for
divorce seriously. She just likes to be with people, and when the
realization that her weak heart is a dangerously serious matter,
finally comes home to her she' can only speak hesitatingly. Miss
Eldridge's appeal to General Briggs for help in her invalid life to
which he is not even listening had an almost unbearable pathos and
irony.
It was a pleasure |o see two star performers, such as Mr.
March and Miss Eldridge, acting their own parts without trying
to be the sole attraction of the evening as is usually the case with
'stars'. Their parts were not the biggest ones in he play and they
were certainly the least sympathetic, but the Marches remained
true to the author's intentions, and when not involved directly in a
scene they folded themselves into the wall as any good performer
should, and let the oUiers act.
And the others could act — Laura Pierpont as Mary Ellis,
Theodore Newton as Ned Grossman, Loretta Daye and Muriel Wil-
liajns as the German girl Sopliie and Nick's wife Nina Denery, were all
excellent. These last two held their own with Mr. March in his two
best scenes, the attempted seduction and his repentent momijig-
nfter.
Emily Lawrence playing Constance, the owner of the guest-
house and Nick's old girl-friend was a little monotonous. Perhaps
Constance is a dull character, but so is General Briggs. and Calvin
Thomas after a slow start worked on the audience's sympathy so
that his very dullness became interesting.
AUTUMN GARDEN came to the Royal Alex with no boliy-
hoo from New York, where it seems to have had only a relatively
short run. One can but speculate that it was perliaps too quietly
subtle and not theatrical enough for the pampered Broadway crowd
that Is still flocking to see THE MOON IS BLUE.
Councillors
Investigate
Bursaries
Are many students forced to
leave university because of 1" ck of
monye? Are there any who find the
available bursaries just can't supply
enough money to keep them going
throughout the year?
Those are some ot the fluesiion
to be answered by a Student Coun-
cil committee set up a month ago
to investigate effects ot the recent
fee increase. The committee out-
lined the investigation it is planning
in an interim report to the Council
last night.
The committee is going P]^«:
pare a form which can be filled
out by students who have genuine
financial difficulties to be allevi-
"'it is also going to find out if the
various college registrars (who ad-
minister the university bursary
fund) know of any cases of students
dropping out ot university because
of lack of funds.
Committee members are going to
see the University administration
to try to obtain and pubUcize the
reasons which led to the fee in-
crease. They feel the result of this
investigation will indicate that
operating costs have risen in far
greater proportion than the fees
have risen.
The various types of financial
assistance provided at the Univer-
sity for students in financial dif-
ficulties were also discussed. These
include the $115,000 University
General Bursary Fund, loan funds,
funds from foundations (such as
the Kellogg Foundation for Medi-
cine and Dentistry), veterans loan
funds, and money obtained from
outside sources.
"Scarcely a day passes that. we
don't help out some student", re-
marked SAC Secretary-Treasurer
E. A. Macdonald.
The Province of Onatrio will also
be requested to give any inform-
ation it might have on any good
high school students who haven't
been able to go to University be-
cause of lack of money.
"In drawing up any recommen-
dations to the Council," commented

that was curpd quite recently may perhaps hold the hiccupinr,'
of this generation. A girl in Montreal hiccuped continualiv r'"
most 15 years.
Hiccups are caused by a rhythmic involuntary spasm
diaphragm producing a rush of air against a^ closed glottis, thg „
in the larynx closed by the vocal cords. The exact
cause ol
reflex phenomenon is unknown; there are proba;bly exciting ,
in the central nervous system (disorders like brain tunior^^
central nervous degenerations sometimes produce hiccups) nnd ■
nerves supplying the lungs, the stomach, and other vjscwa'''
commonest cause is indiscretion in diet — taking highly seiuoiiM
very hot or very cold food, or alcohol with the resultant rapid
tension of the stomach.
There are many diseases associated with hiccup; one of
strangest is epidemic hiccup, a continuous violent hiccup lastin;
and night that may pass through a community like measles, i_
or any other infectious disease. It is believed to be associated jri
virus disease of the brain for there may be other neurological s

sometimes the victims die with little or no postmortem evidett?

Everyone has their own guaranteed method lor tTi;
hiccups. About the most widely used one is holding the bresii
breathii^ in and out of a paper bag. a similar principle is
clinically by having the patient inhale caroon dioxide, and in
©0 per cent of cases the condition is relieved. Fulling sharph
ward on the tongue — best done by inserting a spoon under the i
of the tongue— may stop the hiccup. Expiring forcefully agaii-
closed glottis may help in some cases. Sipping ice water, hot t:
or — this must appeal to a great many people — taking a teaitKr
of whiskey ^re also said to relieve hiccups.
Finally there are the contortionist methods. The one i

Eliza Doolittle, maKing net debut Into pome society,
amazes the young Eynsford-HiU with her repartee
in this rehearsal scene from Shaw's PYGMALION
which opens an eight-night run at Hart House

Theatre on Friday, January 18th. The playars are
Miriam Carscallen, Deborali Tumbull and Ricky

Shaw's Pygmalion
Victorian Romance
Hart House Theatre under direc-
tor Robert Gill opens tomorrow
night with George Bernard Shaw's
PYGMAUON — a play that was
tremendously successful on stage.
It reached a wider audience as
a movie starring Leslie Howard
and Wendy HiHer, at the same
lime winning tor Its author an
Academy Award. Hart House
Theatre has already sold out both
Week-end performances plus two
Saturday matinees for High School
Students, and they are well on the
Way to a complete sell-out.
This argues for the popularity
•f the story of the poor-flower-
girl, and the phonetics professor.
However, one cannot but feel
that many people misunderstand
the play, knowing only the movie,
and they certainly have consistent-
ly and often misunderstood Shaw.
The movie ended when EUza,
the flower-glrl-turned-duche^,
comes back to Henry Higgins,
house on Wimpoie street, smiling
sweetly and suggesting surrender
to her master. In the play she
really does leave him — not com
pletely of course, but she no longer
considers him a good marriage
prospect, and her nature keeps her
interest focused on marriage. HoW'

ever, Shaw believes that dramatic
action is composed entirely of talk,
and when Eliza says she is through
she means it; we who believe in
keeping things more to ourselves
and letting something else — face
or manner — tell the truth, do not
believe her. Shaw had finally to
write an epilogue explaining the
whole situation of Eliza's marriage
to the weak but devoted Freddy
Eynesford-Hill.
Shaw in all his plays made use
of stock theatrical characters and
plots. Most often it was meJodrama,
that he took, but he sub-titled
PYGMALION — a Romance. The
hero is good-looking, clever, rich
and devoted to his motherland his
studies (in phonetics), as all good
young romantic heroes should be.
Eliza is a poor flower-girl who has
somehow maintained a sainted
purity tliroughout a sordid life in
the gutter. Her father is lazy and
djunken and keeps a common-law
wife. He has turned his own daugh-
ter out at an early age to work for
herself — as the nasty father of
any good girl does in a Victorian
romance.
The girl rises in the best rags-
to-riches tradition under the tute-
lage of the clever professor. She
even can pass herself off as a
duchess. But is is just about here
that Shaw takes leave of the stage
convention. He insisted right along
that people on stage must be
natural and talkatively frank.
By doing this, the whole Romance
turns topsy-turvey, and wc are
treated to an abundance of laughs
at the expense of the romanticized
view of life that most people ex-
pect, say, from movies. Eliza and
Higgins do not come together in the
end. Instead the girl becomes even
more than a duchess: she becomes
a very poised and independent
woman as she had not been before.
She proves herself better and
stronger than her teacher. He is
not strong enough to come down
off his high horse, and his de-
votion to his mother shows what
a small boy he really is.
Shaw, as it turns out out, sym-
patbiies most with the girl, and
not with Higgins. Just because
Higgins has the clever lines, is no
reason to susj)ect that he Is the
author. Shaw himself once said of
his plays and his work; 'The biggest
joke is that I am serious." When he
is treated seriously by actors the
effect is ala\vys sure to be loud and
uproarious. The laughs usually
come easily and naturally; and that
is the mark if a good comedian, !

In the league.
The JV's wUI feature Sandy
Davison at centre, and such wing-
men as Jerry Henderson, Doug
Dies and Bob Logie. Jim Wilkes,
who played two games over the
week-end for the Blues, may also
be used. Coach Jack Kennedy has
a strong offensive, with a wealth
of good forwards, though may not
be so strong defensively.
Sparked by Bruce North who was
hitting with a vengeance on de-
fensive and the offer.iive work of
John Bond and Jardine, they kept
the Buttery sextet off balance right
from the opening whistle. Big
North burst from the bench at the
start of the second frame and pro- :
ceeded to bash every white shirt
in sight. It was effective. Jardine
racked up a pair of goals that
were beauties . One was on
breakaway from the blueline on
which he came from nowhere to
nab the puck and roared in on
goal, deklng the goalie to score.
For Trinity It was Butch Bowdeii
ad Gav alglish playing the whole
game on defence.
The game started out fast and
never slackened. Richardson got
the first for Vic on a screened shot
from the blue line that Cope never
saw. Trinity tied it up in a mat-
ter of seconds, Russell and Creole
going in from the face-off with
Creole pulling the trigger. At 8
minutes, James counted from a
goal-mouth scramble and Bond put
Vic two up soon after. Towards
the end of the period. Dunford put
the puck in the net after a nice
, rush from centre but it was wash-
ed out when Vic had a man in the
crease. At the end of the chapter,
Creole was banished for playing
without a stick but there was no
scoring while he was gone.
Vic got on the tally sheet in the
first minute of the second frame
when Jardine tipped in Bond's goal-
front pass. Jardine was away
again but Whitehead dumped him
and was sent to the cooler. The
Trinity defence went well at this
stage. Vic set a hard pace in
this period and handed out plenty
of hard checks. Trinity did a lit-
tle hitting of their own. Richard-
son went off for holding in the
12th minute but Vic held. Jardine
made it 5-1 with his solo dash.
The Butterymen got another one
by Burnett but the buzzer won the
time race, leaving it five to one.

got two goals and an assist on an-
other by Wheldrake. He repeated
the performance the following
night against the U. of M. Cara-
bins by getting two more goals
This year marks the first time
that the Winnipeg native has play-
ed college hockey, and at present
he seems to be set for a very suc-
cessful season. Most of Don's
hockey fame to date has been
made witli the now defunct Marl-
borough Seniors. In 1949-50 he
p ayed with Bobby Hassavd and
Chuck Blair when the Marlbor-
oughs went on to win the Allan
Cup under the guidance of Joe
Primeau. the present coach of the
Leafs. He also played last year
with the same team, and in his
Junior days he lined up with St.
Mike's.
Don is an Arts student at St.
Mike's, where he is taking his
third and final year. He may.
however, carry on in Phys Ed
■work later. He is as been a stu-
dent as he is an athlete, and Is
one of the few who can bring

If he has Incurred the nickname ot
"Aristotle" from his team-mates.
Rope, who Is known for his
eressiveness in any sport in which
he participates, also played la-
crosse and soccer for liis college
in the fall term. Lean and well
built, he looks about 15 pounds
less than his 165 pounds. He has
been in the Leaf hockey organiza-
tion for four years now in the ca-

the second half, but could not

Irene Hain, Sally Sarles and Char-

Vic X and St. Mike's I tussled to
a 1-1 tie yesterday noon. The Vic-

Saints skated hard but their rushes
didn't pay off until the first of the
second, when "B.J." Praser rais-

The third period saw )3oth teams

sohn, a group of six Moments Mu-
sicaux op, by Schubert, and the
Sonata in F minor op. 5 by
Brahms. The Schubert pieces
were, to my mind, a Uttle exag-
gerated In their treatment. These
are brief, epigrammatic pieces —
the musical equivalent of witti-
cisms.
Their wit consists in strange ,
often abrupt modulations, and cur-
ious rhythmic distortions of the
original ideas. Schubert's pecul-
iar genius lies in the fertility of
these ideas; they are brimming
with life and possibilities for "dis-
tortion." Boszormenyi-Nagy made
the humor of these pieces very ob-
vious — to me, rather like saying
"Get it?" jafter every joke. But
there is no denying he made them
interesting, more so perhaps than
by subdued treatment.
In the Brahms^ Boszormenyi-
Nagy emphasized the composer's
astounding technical abilities' in
getting the maxium sonority out
of the piano. Brahms was a fine
pianist, and even at the early date
of this sonata had learned to write
orchestrally for the piano, long be-
fore he learned to do the same for
the orchestra.
The magnificent sonority of
Sunday's performance was achiev-
ed, probably wisely, at the expense
of some rather far-fetched thema-
tic affinities between the move-
ments , which look much more
emphatic on paper than they sound
in the concert hall.
For an encore, Boszormenyi-
Nagy gave a beautifully restrained
and poignantly lyrical performance
of an Adagio by Mozart. Once
again he showed that he is cap-
able of playing in many styles,
and that Sunday's concert did not
represent the whole of his art by
any means.

Asian Aid
A Problem
Says Cavell
"If , South East Asia is at the
crossroads as is so often said, then
so are we. because our treatment ol
them will influence the future of
freedom in our country", Mr. R. G.
Cavell told a group of students on
Tuesday, in the first of a series of
addresses on '•The Nature and
Attainment of World Peace".
Cavell 15 administrator of Canada's
Colombo Plan Committee.
Cavell emphasized the success ol
the Marshall Plan in Europe and
pointed out that one of the dif-
ficulties of the Colambo Flan is
that in Asia we are dealing with
communities which Jiave never had
anything to do with industrializa-
tion. "In this country the first
thing a small baby falls over is
his mother's vacuum sweepers"
... In South East Asia the orbit
is the village, the plough and the
bullock." The average income, he
added is about $55 yearly.
The Colombo Plan, he believeSj
is a practical and functional ap-
proach to the problem of providing
for capital development in Asia
and for giving technical aid. It is a
six year plan requiring six billion
dollars, he said, of which not more
than two bilhon can come from
surrounding areas. The Canadian
contribution for this year is 25
million dollars which will be used
for agricultural and transport
schemes, and to ease the colossal
refugee problems. Seven million
people moved into Pakistan when
India and Pakistan split, and these
people, he said, must be put in the
way of earning a living.
Language, according to Cavell.
is another major problem. There
are two hundred languages in
India, he said, with at least
five major ones in Pakistan,
Moreover, these languages are
all agricultural languages and can^
not translate technical words. This
forces education into the field of
visual aid. he said.
CavcU suggesled that the best
kind of industrialization at present
would be co-operative villages
based on agriculture. Such organiza-
tion would require tools, ytool
technicians, power machinery for
grinding grain, deeper wells with
pumps to provide a pure water
supply, and health and educational
centres.
"Whatever kind of bread they
hake will have quite a bit of free
dom in the dough." he said. He
ointed out the danger of "ant-
Moslem flirtation" and said that
due to the strength of religious,
feeling in Asia democracy may
"have a very different pattern than
it has here: . . . but I don't think
that matters very much," he added.

Tea With TS
Between shifts at the Dockland Settlement with
the Cockneys in East-End London, the writer, William
Glenesk. Ill Emmanuel, managed an afternoon with
T. S. Eliot. The last of two articles.
BY WILLIAM GLENESK
:artoon by Mugh Niblock
Katiwe Plum
"American films have created a fantastic picture
of American life", said Mr. Eliot, as he hximped
up into his chair, an urbane twinkle in his eye.
I was ^Clocked at the poet's confidential, almost
benevolent musing answers to my questions. The
poet saw the art of film as a potent force in
mouldmo- a country's cultural life. But like litera-
ture, it°has become a commodity, and the in-
vestment risk limits the quality of appeal. Ex-
periments like the feature-length film of Murder
in the Cathedral are too great a leap in the
dark for producers unless the play is known.
From films we moved to tJhe critic's task.
"Just what is the primary function of the
critic. In literature, the theatre, the art gallery
or the music hall?" I asked. To explain the ques-
tion. I introduced The Varsity and the hail of
doubts in the minds of its readers in past years.
Mr. Eliot slowly slipped off his horn-rims and
levelled his gaze at mine. "The critic . . . ought
t-o know what his prejudices are", he remarked,
"ttiat his judgment may be as true as possible."
The function of criticism he held was to inter-
pret works of art, and to educate the public
taste. But interpretation is only legitimate when
it is not really interpretation, but presenting facts
of the case which he otherwise would have
missed.
■ Sometiow he wandered into history, and the
problem of interpretins: events. Eliot sided
stronglv with Arnold Taynbee that all history was
interpreted. "Reading these seemingly objective
historians can be dangerous," he said. "I find
Macaulay and Gibbon the safest historians to
r
read because their bias Is most evident'.
Eliot went on at length on the fallacy (,'f ^ij
tivity, wtien I saw the door open and a > ''Kj.
tea poked in, held^in suspense while m
went OQ talking, and then was Withdra ^^iflJ
door closed. ^\ tla
Last of the line of questions was the |
and reading of The Hollow Men, "What
la
this" '
tone and mood that pervades the verse''"
as the clock was striking four, and i rp
first part. Mr. Eliot got up at this sf
stepped over to take the book. "Like
said, "with a dominant note of
pathos." Then he re-read the lines * a,;,. -
measured linear inflections and resonant t '
voice. "Have you heard my^ Harvard recorri- ^
he asked. I replied that I had not, and he'*^'-
gested I hear them when back in Canada t t^l
ed to the last lines of The HoUow Men "^f
are these to be read, Mr. Eliot, in rhythm l
tempo?" ^
The poet, critic and publisher took the \
once more, "These are read "with an air or
haustion," and he read:
"For Thine is
Life is
For Tliine is the
This is the way the world, ends.
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper."
"I was very glad to have you come," Mr
smiled, and held out his hand. The poet \ "M
missed his tea. "
Nationalism is not a bad thing in itself. It is only when ^_
taken to excess, that nationalism can be harmful. In our »»,r.iTC
time, we have seen much suffering and wastage, products OUR READERS WRITE
«f the strident demands of ultranationalism.
Here in Canada, we are currently being swamped by a
nationalistic tidal wave, we are shedding our mhibitions like
a maple tree in October. The government is rather awk-
wardly substituting "Government" of Canada for Dominion ^
of Canada. So now "Dominion" departments ar o\.^^v in- .^^^ entitled "Bottle
stitutions are now being known and labelled as Canadian Bedlam" scarcely lives up
instead.
Other assertions of Canadian independence have been
the abolishing of appeals to the judicial committee of the
Privy Council, and the easing-away of the Westminster
mononoly (unwanted in London) on Canadian constitutional
amendment. These latter two moves can be easily defended,
they have been long overdue.
But we can caiTy CanadianLsm too far. The speculation
about a Canadian for our next Governor-General is what
we mean. We think this is unwise, on a question of work-
abilit.v.
Advocates of a native-born Governor-General are many
and quite vocal too. One appeal is to the new fashion: the
dream of an indenendent Canada. Another is crassly econo-
mic: nut crudelv. it is ■'Whv give all that money to a non-
Canadian?" Then, as a clincher, supporters of the idea point Editor, The Vars.ty
to the other Dominion.s (if you will pardon the expression).
E.xcepting Ceylon and Canada, native-born Governors-
General hold sway.
But however. Australia presents a good example of the
reason why we object to a native-born representative of
the Kinif. The present Australian Governor-General was a
member of the Labour party in that country. His part.v
aftih'alions raised acrimonious opposition at the time of
his appointment. Now. according to a recent Saiurday
Nisht article, he is in hot water with his former political
colleagues who accuse him of selling them out (on a partic-
ular issue) in return for "an all-expense trip to England",
It can be seen by this example, that no matter which way
a native-born Governor-General turns, his previous party
connections will tend to trip him up. With an outsider as
Govei'nor-General, this dilemma and discomfort is largely
prevented.
The essential thing to remember, to avoid being swallow-
ed up in glorious nationalistic sentiment about having one
of "our own people" as titular head of the state, is that the
Governor-General has duties of heavy responsibilitj'. He
does much more than deliver greetings to the people at ap-
pro- I 'ate times, shake hands at functions, or open bazaars
and Parliament.
The Governor-General, as a man, may be called upon to
exercise his judgment when the government of the country
is in doubt. When party leaders must turn to arbitration
hecause their strengths are too equal, the Governor-General
is the final arbiter. What is more, the Governor-General's
resnonsibilitie.s, according to Bagehot's classic statement,
include the "three right.s — the right to be consulted, the
right to encourage, the right to warn." This is the sovereign's
position in the British system, and Governor-General is
"sovereign" of Canada, as representative of the crown.
These responsibilities make it absolutely necessary that
the titular head of the stale be free from bias and partisan
coloration. This is why it is unwise to grant the prestige

Any Kind
Of Radio
It was encouraging to read a
letter last Friday by two students
who were interested in establish-
ing a radio station on the campus.
I wish to add to their ideas by
some suggestions of my own.
As they mentioned Queen's
University has a radio station.
The University of Alberta oper-
ates CKUA in Edmonton. Besides
many universities in the United
States operate their own stations
It is very difficult to obtaiii
permission to estaljlish additional
AM outlets in the Toronto area.
If permission were obtained it
would either be limited to the
dayUght hours or a very inferior
frequency. However, it would
do no harm to investigate the
possibilities of "getting a license
for an AM station.
The alternative would be an PM
station, which should not be
difficult to set up here, as the
PM band is not overcrowded.
There are a large number of FM
sets in this area. Prom conver-
sations with owners of PM sets,
I have learned that they have
purchased them in order to listen
to PM stations which do separate
programing from the ordinary
AM outlets. There are stations
in Buffalo. Niagara Falls. N.Y.,
Hamilton and Toronto. An addi-
tional station in Toronto should
promote the sale of PM sets. Be-
sides promoting FM it would
give training in both the tech-
nical and production end of
radio, a training which is very
limited now.
attention of your correspondents
that there ^ad been a slight lapse
in the admirable institution of
"Bottle Rolling."
A conscientious research was
made into the rules of this highly
artistic and skillful pastime.
Certain features of the game were
not even mentioned in "Bottle
Bedlam" ... a glaring" over-
sight which we heartily deplore
and intend to rectify.
Prime consideration must be
given to the method of delivery.
A windmill action with underhand
delivery is the most popular * . .
and accurate. However, to the
experts of the game, it is the
daring overhand throw which
appeals. The advantages are
obvious. Although not as accur-
ate as the 'wind'miir, the over-
hand style enables the delivery
to be made with terrifying force
and speed. If the hurler throws
true, the shatering impact and
the resultant debacle are unimag-
inably horritic'^and complete.
We come now to the rule which
imparts to the game the aura
o£ sobriety and intellectuality
and which is demanding of great
skill on the part of the roller.
Sometime after the delivery, and
before the moment of impact,
it is necessary to cry "BORT"
with all the volume and reson-
ance one can muster. Failure to
do so disqualifies the participant
from further, action that night.
Undoubtedly the Great Bottle
Roll of 1914 was the successful
culmination of years of practice,
but it is NOT unmfitchable! The
Art of Bottle Rolling has for a
few years lapsed into obscurity
. . . but not oblivion. It is with
pride that we. the Bottle Rollei's
of Trinity College, announce
that once again the crashing and
tinkling of bottles may be heard
in the halls. Given time and
practice perhaps this year i

plum to various Canadians who have been suggested, worthy
as they may he. Almost any man, important enough to be
considered, would have picked up party connections on his
way.
If the present well-meaning but misguided nationalism
does plant a native Canadian in Rideau Hall, there is great
possiblity that the highest pq^sition in the nation will be-
come besmirched. And the most nationalistic Canadians
would surely be the first to agree that the alleycat flavor
of party-politics should never surround the head of our less
hysterical nation.
We could make use of our
dramatic talent. There are two
sources of classical records at
the University, — the Hart House
and Carnegie collections which
would probably, be available.
Popular re:?ords should be readily
available for private individuals.
The building of the transmitter
by our own students would be a
considerable saving.
On a ba«is of my suggestions
it is evident that the establish-
ment and operation af an FM
radio station would be both in-
expensive and practical.

Decision
HARIOT CLASSIC BACK
Critics Numerous
But Race Repeats
For Dance Blurb
The Engineering Society last night voted unanimously
to hold their annual chariot race for the Jerry P. Potts Tro-
phy, with all bodies who are represented on the Students'
Administrative Council eligible to enter one chariot.
The dectaon to operate the event,
for publicity for the Skule At-Home
this year followed a lengthy dis-
cussion. It was pointed out that
criticism tiad resulted from last
year's race, in particular in The
Varsity.
Several members recalled the
"farce" of last session, where en-
tries from other organiza tions
were "forcibly ejected" from the
race, and an engineering chariot
won the Skule -sponsored event.
Doug Sherk (IVi and Eng. Soc.
Pi-esident, suggested that -'Tlus
year the hell-raising be organiz-
ed". Tlie Society will guarantee
each entry a fair start.
The race, to be held Thursday,
Jan. 24. promises to be better or-
ganized that the last. All entries
must register with the Society of-
fice before 5 pjn.. Jan. 22. and
each registration must be accom-
panied by a $1.00 fee, to be donated
to SHARE.
In the discussion regarding what
organization should run the race.
Jim Drummond (rV). said that
"The Blue and White Society
should run the race, and the Eng.
^oc. would, therefore, evade the re-
sponsibility for any damage caused
to iMrrowed chariots," usually puili-
carts of a variety.
Lois Dc Greet (IV), criticized the
request, condoning the SAC oper-
ating similar activities by arrang-
ing them through endless commit-
tees and sub-conunittees.
Suggestions as to the character
of the race ranged from operating
it in conjunction witli the coming
blood-donor campaign iliaving ia
the mind Uie violence of other
years) racing street cars up and
down College Street.
The Society last night agreed to
vote a Sl-00 per ticket subsidy for
the Grad Ball tickets following a
heated discussion. Several members
questioned the fate of sums ap-
propriated from year-card sales for
the Ball. The subsidy, whicti will
total $400. appro.Ktmately. was mov-
ed by Paul Hutchison, (IV, and was
finally carried by a 10 to 4 vote.

Strike Threatens
University College women were faced with a strike threat
Wednesday night when tlie executive said It would walk ouC
unless there was an increase in attendance at the Women's Under-
graduate Association open meetings.
The meeting on Wednesday night was replaced by an informal
discussion when only 15 UC co-eds turned out and the WUA lacked
a quorum. WUA President Marg Fleming said ye-sterday that it
was unlikely that there would be an executive strike until after
tlie Arts ball.
The subject of personal SHARE canvassing of UC women was
raised at the informal discussion. Several of the canvassers criticized
the present system and suggested that canvassers should wear tags
or some otJier form of identification. Miss Fleming said that a
booth for Student Help for Asian Relief and Education contributions
would be set up in the UC Rotunda.

Both were defeated.
Lack Of Contribution Takers
Remedied Soon for SHARE
Yesterday in a leter published in The
Varsity a student complained that she
wanted to contribute to the Student Help
To Asian Relief and Education, but did
not know to whom she could give her
money or where. The same day a mem-
ber of the University teaching staff came
into The Varsity office with the same
problem. In an explanation for other
people having difficulty, the Chairman of
the SHARE Executive Committee, Tiro
Armstrong, said:
"Contributions will be accepted through-
out the week in the Students' Adminis-
trative Council office and in the UC Lit."
The response to the campaijm was encour-
aging, added Armstrong, saying that he
hoped the campaign will reach its objec-
tive.
According to William Corbett, III Trin-
ity the following items were sold at a
Trinity College auction yesterday : a Miss
SHARE, a cat, a bottle of vodka which
anyone could taste before Bidding, a radio
not functioning at the time of the auction,
but which might be repairable for an es-
timated amount of $14, and an SAC pen-
nant which was purchased by a high
school student who burned it immediately.
The auction netted about $70 said Corbett "
adding that to receipts from the can-
vassing are about $200.
Earl Scott, \l SPS, reported that Skuta
donations averaged between 75c and a
$1. per student.
"There has not been a great deal of
money turned in, but of the twenty-eight
male canvassers only two turned in their
collections," said Chuck Hanley, HI UC, in
charge of the men's canvassing. He added,
"We will continue the canvassing ne.xt
week too. It is impossible to contact every-
body this week, and the reception was not
too warm." A desk will be set up in UC
rotunda for convenience.

Provost
Seeley
BY
PEARL -PARNES
In 1945 the Reverend Dr. B S. K. Seeley came to Trinity Colift,
As well as becoming Provost of the college, he was made Hono3
Freshman of the Class of 4T9. His two black spaniels. Dumbo 2
Bambi, were the unofficial mascots.
Now Provost Seeley has "graduated", (he actually graduated trojn
Cambridge University in Elngland), and his twa dogs now are 01%?
a true Irish animal wuo came out from Ireland by himself when he
was ten weeks old, and the famous Ambrose, a dignified, impressiy!
Canadian bulldog "who just looks fierce".
The provost was born in Kngland, attended Marlborough College
and then Christ's College at Cambridge, He graduated in classics aaa
theology. He became Chaplain of St. John's College at Cambridge, and
Examining Chaplain to the Bishop of Bristol, acting as Organiziji-
Secretary for the Cambridge Mission to Delhi, 1936-38. ^
In 1938 he came to Canada as Professor of Fxegetical Theolojm
at St. John's College in Winnipeg, an arts college of the University^
Manitoba. He moved to Kingston in 1943 as Rector of St. George's
Cathedral, lecturing in philosophy at Queen's University. Then, in 1945
he became Provost Of Trinity College at the University of Toronto'
Provost Se«ley has published several books. The last dealt with fbt
Function of the University, "I adanit that I have never learned
to a class of more than 160 students, but I regard any lecture as ■
failure if I have failed to evoke any discussion from the students."
"My experience is that the most valuable interchange of ideas takes
place jn the early hours of the morning in these sessions when the
cares of the day are over and one pulls the universe to pieces with that
ease and nonchalance which only the undergraduate can assume. " "
The student must learn to evaluate the place of his profession "
the total environment of human living, which involves poetry as wei
as fact, beauty as well as utility, spaciousness of thought as well «
practicality," the Provost believes.
The Provost is noted for his liberal views. He is chairman of the
Civil Liberties Association, and firmly supports the right of eact
man to his own opinion. One of the famous examples was the visit 0
the so-called "Red Dean" of Canterbury to the University. All the
other colleges had turned down the request for a room, and it was
Trinity that finally granted the Dean a place to speak.
A list of positions held by the Provost includes President ot the
Ontario Classical Association in 1946, President of the Classical Associa-
tion of Canada in 1947, Chairman of Canadian Association of Vouth
Service Organizations' in 1948, Colonial Service Liason Officer f:*
Canada, and Chairman of the Canadian Institute of Public Affairs
since 1950.

was the comment of Paul
L ^^^^meeting last night when the
ncil ^^'^ Rocky Martino
^\ resigned as director ol the
' Table discussions for the
Committee.
_^io chftiwnan Dong Waitc said
without the Round Table Dis-
ions over CKEY, the committee's
' eratn consists of 15-minute
Sadcasts over CJRT-FM at Ryer-
institute. He said that news
!^tor Harry Rasky of CKEY stUl
hoped that it would be possible
have the round-table discussions
but had rejected a panel of speak-
rs proposed by Waite and asked lor
I Hjnore secular" speeches. Waite said
I that he was reluctant to change
,hP topic as he "didn't want to give
m t^^y^ anything they didn't know
about."
Waite asked for help fiom the
debating union in securing speak-
ers and said that he also hoped to
get a list of last year's speakers
from Rasky to use in contacting
people. He added that lack of scripts
was the main drawijack, in dramatic
productions.
Martino reported that the CaiTist-
mas programme which he produced
was a great success and as a result
of this progiamme he had received
two offers of radio time for dramatic
productions from CHUM and CKFH.
The council passed an ammend-
ment by Forrestell which provided
for the appointment of a new dir-
ector for the discussions instead of
dropping the discussions as rec-
ommended by the radio committee
report. Bud Trivett, TI Law, said
that the discussions should be con-
tinued as if they were dropped it
would be difficult to secure radio
time next year and the only way
to train a director was by giving
tftiat person experience.

COCA-COLA ITP.
In a flurry of confusion regarding parliamentary rules,
the Liberal government of the Mock Parliament last night
was defeated on a bill which would make resale price maia-
tenance illegal. Meeting in the Ontario Legislative Chamber,
the Progressive Consevative opposition defeated a combined
Uberal-OC3P roil -call vote after
the government whip had failed to
include his name on the list of
party members. When the vote
was called, the CCF vrhip went to
the spectators' gallery and brought
in another member, causing the
Tory members to object and ask
for a roll call vote. After some
debate, the spealter Don Feather-
stone ruled that a roll call vote
would be taken. The roll call not
only excluded the CCF recruit but
also the Liberal whip and another
Liberal member.
The three LPP members who
had voted with the government
previously left the house before the
vote on the third reading. This re-
sulted in the government being fin-
ally beaten by a vote of 29-26.
John Medcoff, n UC, then resign-
ed as Prime Minister.
Earlier, a motion by Phelps Bell
(a Conservative member) was de-
clared out o£ order. He proposed
that Canada should anne.x the Unit-
ed States of America. However,
the house unanimously passed a
motion supporting the SHARE
campaign on the campus.
When the Mock Parliament sat
as a committee of the whole on
the act regarding resale price
maintenance, the Conservative op-
position defeated the first clauss
of the bill which defined the word
"dealer." Conservative leader
Paul Forestall said that they felt
the word "person" should be sub-
stituted for "dealer", hut Prima
Minister Medcoff accused the op-
position of "obstruction." Medcoff
said the Conservatives might aa
well try to fiUbuster. as any clause
defeated while the House was ta
committee was not considered as
a want of confidence in the govern-
ment.
Most of the debate centered
around the alleged big profits oq
"aspirins and soda pop."
The CCF amendment which al-
lowed the government control of
resale prices if the "small dealer"
was suffering under the act was
accepted by the Liberals and later
defeated.
Liberal Leader Medcoff was tha
only 'man of the four campus party
leaders present, and-,the Liberals
were the only party to fill their al-
lotted seats. Only three of tha
nine LPP seats, and twenty-niae
of the thirty-six PC seats were fill-
ed.

Hillel Speaker Sees Iranian Oil
As Biggest Western Blunder Yet
•The Anglo-Iranian squabble ov-
er the Abadan oil refinei-ies is a
more dangerous situation that the
Korean war." said Pierre Van Pes-
«en, author, lecturer, and journal-
ist, speaking in the Museum Thea-
tre in the Hillel Jajor Lecture
series last night.

Slow-Down
By Waiters
At Acadia
WoUevUle. N.S.^(CUP) — Stu-
dent gourmets at Acadia Univer-
sity were caught off guard recent-
ly, as dining-hall waiters staged a
slowdown during the noon meal.
The waiters, also students at the
university, had been nursing a
feeling of resentment over a per-
iod of several weeks, due to re-
strictions being imposed on wait-
ing techniques. The final incen-
tive to the slow-down came when
the waiters were told to slow the
pace down and lessen the noise.
At a caucus meeting they decided
that the meal would be slowed
down to a ridiculous degree. This
antagonized the head waiter into
laying off forty waiters.
Objections that the lay-off con-
stituted a breach of contract were
raised by the waiters. With the
Dean of Men acting as conciliator,
agreements as to procedure were
reached. The next morning the
waiters were all back on the Job.
the trend of world affairs." Van
Passen continued. "The only rea-
son that Russia did not occupy
Iran and neighboring countries was
that she feared the military might
of the united Nations," he added.
"Thus," said Van Passen, "the
acute danger in the Middle East
comes not from the Soviet Union,
but from the Arab peoples them-
selves." The speaker went on to
claim that if there is no improve-
mefoX in the eccmomic condition of
the masses there will be a "ter-
rible explosion" before a year is
over without the consideration of
Russia. Van Passen believes that
the duty of the Western world is
to beghi without delay a detailed
plan of "moral armament."
Van Passen sees the coming rev-
olution in Africa and Asia as a
protest against the misery and ex-
ploitation of centuries. Our part,
he believes, is to direct this revo-
lutionary spirit into creative chan-
nels, while it may still be demo-
cratically inspired.
Education, health, land and the
landless, are some of the measures
suggested by Van Passen which
might have made China our ally
today and which we must soon em-
ploy if the peoples of the Near
East are not to become commun-
istic. In the speaker's opinion, an
upsurge of freedom and prosper-
ity in backward areas of the world
would strike a harder blow at the
Kremlin than would the Atlantic
Pact.
Mr. Van Passen believes that the
spearhead of a drive for a more
humane civilization has already
appeared in the east. He referred
to the development of Israel as
"the most hopeful thing in the
world today." In the miraculous
rebirth of the state against ad-
verse conditions. Van Passen sees
the beginning of the redemption of
mankind, for "man may draw on
the divine power for fulfilment of
dreams if they are righteous." He
cited Israel as a land in which free
enterprise is harmonious with ad-
vanced collectivism. This he be-
lieves can be a lesson for sociolo-
gists, economists, and the entire
world.

ninis* Milland sure is clue-less.
This is one of these problem pictures, the problem being adoption.
Tiemey are a childless couple. This doesn't bother him
ich as it does her. Finally they decide on adoption. But t^h€ waiting

IHiUand is not so struck on the idea A certified child from the

nt^d child going wrong is cited. High genetics would have set the
Dg newspaper columnist here, but CLOSE TO MY HEART must
-h him, along with perhaps a large majority of moviegoers, the
Z's of heredity.
Being a columnist, and not backward in using his space for trying
jet information about the parentage of Danny, Milland engages in
ective work. He finds that the mother was a school teacher who
ed herself, and the father is a condemned murderer, a "monster"
ording to Milland.
But the ending is happy, and Milland is straightened out, not so
oil by learning about heredity as much as by reasoning himself that
father is so evil, that the kid must be all right, (What would

Figaro's
Staging
Scores Hit
The performance of Mozart's
"The Marriage of Figaro" by the
CBC Opera Company under Nichol-
as Goldschmidt last Wednesday
evening was an event I won't soon
forget. I cannot remember hearing
a more brilliant performance of
any opera on the radio.
Cutting an opera that takes near-
ly four hours In a full stage per-
formance to fit into something less
than two and a half is a difficult
task. On Wednesday, three 'of the
commonly performed arias were
omitted, and a few repeats in the
last two acts were not observed.
However, all the essential "Figaro"
was there: the overture, the lovely
little Italian songs, and the dra-
matic ensembles.
It would lake more space than is
available to write a full apprecia-
tion of this wonderfully vivacious
performance. Here are a few things
that struck me especially. The or-
chestra, for instance played as one
sometimes hopes orchestras would
play. The phrasing ot the strings*
was such a joy to listen to that
sometimes I found myself for-
getting the voice parts and listen-
ing to the accompaniment.
And the singers, of cour.se. Un-
fortunately, Marguerite Gignac's
voice loses a lot of its distinctive
character on the radio, but her
artistry made up for that. And
some of the other singers (sucli as
Louise Roy and Ernest Adams)
come across exceptionally well. I
thought casting William Morton as
Don Curzio, the stuttering notary,
was a particularly happy idea. His
somewhat shrill voice came out in
the third-act sextet, and gave his
small pEirt an entirely new life to
me.
The CBC. especially the technical
staff who looked after this pro-
duction, reserves a whole bouquet
of orchids for a magnififently
successful effort.

Dr. Sidney E. Smith, President of

Under the March of Dimes grant.
Dr. Rhodes and. his associates will

against one type of poho virus has
been effective in protecting mice

how long such immunity persists.
In addition they will try to in-

Such conditions as composition
of nutrient media, aeration, tem-

Recently returned from a tour of
Finland, Sweden, Denmark and

very much impressed by the spirit
with which the smaUer democrar

pation in their social policy.
In Copenhagen the world's most
up-to-date housing projects and
municipal camps for children run
by the Board of Education are
typical examples of conditions
found all over northern Europe,
Professor Hendry said that slums

In Finland reconstruction is tak-
ing place extensively. The people
here feel that just as the United
Nations is rebuilding the bridges
of the country, so it is helping to
bridge the differences between na^
tions. Child and material wclfore
are stressed m Finland, .said Pro-
fessor Hendry, describing ih«
country as having impressive soli-
darity.
In the field ot education , espe-
cially in Denmark, much is being
done to train young people for poli-
tical leadership, regardless of
party . affiliations, reported Hen-
dry. The general impression ot
Scandinavia is that "few people
have too much, but fewer have too
little."
In Germany students are active
in building the Free University of
Berlin. Super-modern, structures
are rapidly taking the place of
wartime rubble, he said. In the
opinion of some West Germans,
too many people are fleeing from
East Germany instead of staying
to fight.
Much of this progress is finano
ed by the UN. Professor Hendry
feels that Canada could achieve
a great deal in the field of welfare
with similar aid.

Hockey SVs Win
Four For Holden
By BRUCE NORTH
There was slaughter in Varsity Arena yesterday after-
noon. Taking a page from last year's book, the Intermediate
Hockey Blues waltzed to a 15-3 victory over Waterloo Col-
lege. Last season the Blues defeated the Waterloo boys 14-2.
Ross Holden not only went one
better than the hat trick, he scor-
ed three of his four goals within
16 seconds. On the basis of this
performance alone. Holden was the
outstandine player. Rlghtwinger
Lawson wasn't far behind. He lit
the lamp three times, a feat which
In any ordinary game would have
topped everything. Logic and
Bodnar each scored two. Logic
whacked one of his in while he was
still on his knees.
Klym accounted for all three
Waterloo goals. He appeared to
be about the only bonafide hockey
player that the boys in yellow and
black had.
AH three Varsity forward lines
looked good. It was obvious from
watching them yesterday that the
JV's will have no trouble this year
offensively. However, the defence
had a tendency to let the opposing
forwards set behind Ihem for a
clear shot. This was especially
notable on Klym's last goal when
he lock a pass just inside the red
line and went in all alone to deke

Waterloo were a total loss. They
must have had their pre-game pep
talk in the KCR. Elxcept for goal-
ie Binnhammer the score would
probably have read 20-3. Howev-
er the reason didn't appear to be
lack of hockey ability as much as
it was lack of condition. Varsity
didn't score their first goal until
late in the first period and the
score was only 5-2 at the end of the

Stulac, Grossman Score ^
Nortown Tribells staved off a second half drive by the Varsity Orfuns juoi
last night to win 67-60 in a City League basket ball feature at Hart House. The t?!
had a 42-23 lead at the half, which the Orfuns narrowed down to 54-42 by the p
third quarter. The gap was closed to 62-56 with about three minutes to go as Geor ^
put on a tremendous scoring display, but the TB's sank a couple of shots and Icifi^'
to guarantee victory, the seventh straight in City League ball. '^^
Vanity came out in tihe third quarter an
entirely different looking team from what they
had been In the first half. It was not that they
had played poorly in the early stages — the Tri-
Bells just couldn't do anything wrong. After
Varsity had taken a 13-11 lead, Max Grossman
started finding the hoop from the keyhole and
scored twelve points in the first half, Grossman,
Lilivac and Cooper shot unerringly and the team's
passirvg made them look more like the Harlem
Globe Trotters than the team the Blues beat
Tuesday night. Litvac, who did not play Tuesday,
provided much of the difference with his brilliant
floor play.
Varsity got the ball first in the second half,
and immediately started steady chopping away at
tihe TB's lead. Leo Madden sank two long shots
in the first minute, and with Jim Russel scoring
from outside and George Stulac getting the
rebounds and sinking them, the Orphuns took
over. Stulac relied mainly on a one handed jump
and push shot, and had a quick hook shot that
was very effective when he was checked.
The Orphuns controlled the backboards pretty
thorougihly in the second half, Stulac getting
the rebounds in the Tri-Bell end and Kettle
propelling them down in the Varsit .

Ni-Falls, Ithaca Visit A-Niti
"WlresUing. swimming, boxing
movies, dancing both square and
round and a wide variety of games
will take place at the athletic night
in Hart House to-morrow.
Leon Smith, 177 pounds, is the
only addition to the wrestler's line-
up. He is replacing BUI Chykahuk
who is now in the infirmary with
a knee injui-y. While it is very un-
likely that the Blues can upset the
Ithaca College powerhouse the
team should show the fans some
top wrestlmg.
In the pool the Toronto Swim
team are facing Niagara Falls in
their first home appearance. Phil
Ware of the visitors who holds two
of the Niagara pool records will be
their top man. Captain of the team
Fred Auman should also catch the
eyo as he has been defeated only
four times. George Stulac of Var-
sity should show the fans that
Toronto has some top men too.
Once more we must predict a
Toronto loss in the dual meet but
perhaps the team will surprise us.
Immediately after the inter-
collegiate meet the junior inter-
faculty swimming finals will be run
off. All of the contestants are in

Big news for the bowling gals ! President of the Varsity
elub, Joan Seymour, reports that the U of T squad has re-
ceived an invitation from the University of Alberta to com-
pete in an Intercollegiate Telegraphic Bowling Meet held by
the Western Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Union. Sounds
conf usinc but this is how it works. The tourney is slated from
January 7 to 26, with the Varsity meet scheduled for the
23rd of this month. Each university participating will select
its ten best bowlers, who will roll three games apiece. The
top five scores will be wired to Edmonton not later than Jan.
26, PM, where the tallies will be compared, and the winner
Runounced, Mighty fine title, Canadian Intercollegiate Bowl-
ing Champions, for whoever wins.
This is the first time Varsity bowlers have competed in
this type of a meet. Last year the telegraphic tussle was
echeduled too early in the season for a Varsity team to be
formed. It should be very interesting to find out just where
the U of T co-eds stand in their bowling prowess as compar-
ed with other university gals across Canada. And a very eco-
nomical type of competition too, which counts in women's
sports !
If you belong to that group of females which is interest
ed in bowling, but hasn't as yet joined the Varsity club, here's
the low-down. The club'bowls every afternoon (especially
Tuesdays and Fridays) , at the Midtown Bowling Alloy. Mr.
Greenberg, the manager, has offered free instruction on
Tuesdays. For two dollars you can play the astounding num-
ber of twenty games.
In February an intramural meet will be held, composed
of the two highest scorers from each college and faculty.
These gals will be competing for a brand new bauble which
should give them a special incentive.
much interest and excitement a»
the first part of the pool prograniL
In the upper gym boxing fans
will see the Senior Interfaculty
finals. The preliminaries were
finished last night with some ex-
citing bouts. Butler of Meds walk-
ed off with the heavyweight title
when no opponent could be found"
for him but the other classes arc
still hotly contested.
Russ Reilly walked off with the
interfaculty title in the 135 pound
clfiss yesterday. The St. Mike's
boy defeated G. Patenaude of
Dents. Reilly dominated the fight
from the opening bell and Pate-
naude limited himself to counter-
punciiing and although he was
taking a bad beating he put up
a good show.
In the -130 pound preliminary,
D.G, Harris from Forestry defeat-
ed D.E. Hill from Vic, by unanimous
desision. Harris will meet R.F. Eve
of SPS, in the Saturday Night
finals. G. Hevenor, Vic. advancet!
into the 175 pound finals by de-
feating M.H. Actan, SPS, by un-
animous decision.
Four inlercoUegiate exhibitions
will finish the boxing program.
Nick Betz, 130 pounds meets Russ
Reilly, 135 pounds in the opener.
Mike Wright 140 pounds, vs. Rob-
ertto Couceiro, 145 pounds, Norm
Green, 155, vs. Pete Petcoff, 165
Howard Greenly. 175, vs. Roy
Stevenson, heavy should provide
a good display to top off the boxing.
Tickets for the variety program
will go o nsale at the door start-
ing 6:45. All adminisslons are at
the door. There is no advance
ticket sale. If you come you pro-
bably won't see Toronto walking
away with any of the events but
you are guaranted some top flight
competition.

POT n whipped St. Hilda's n
9-1 in the noon-hour tilt at Varsity
Arena yesterday that even had
the referee confused. The Physios
out-skated the Trinity squad from
start to finish, and banged In two
counters before the close of the
first period.
The second frame saw Pols again
swamp the Saints' goal. Nancy
Burns raised a fast one into the
nets and the Physios caught fire
making the score 6-0 by the end of
the period.
The gals from St. Hilda's put on
an extra spurt in the third but fail-
ed to stop POT from netting two.
Connie Bazos finally scored on a
break-away to spoil the Physios'
chances of a shut-out.
Nancy Burns was lop scorer for
the winners, netting four. Kathy
Kavanaugh and Mary Bowden ac-
counted for two goals apiece and
Brenda Predrickson sank one. For
St. Hilda's, Connie Bazos and
Wendy Wright were outstanding.

In Interfaculty hockey yester-
day, Jr. UC looked potter than
they have lately ar» they edged the
Junior Skulemen 2-1. SPS took a
1-0 lead in the first period and
hung on as the Red and White
team demonstrated their usual in-
effective goal scoring. In the sec-
ond period Carl Yakimota tied up
the score then Johnny Duff put
UC in the lead, There were sev-
en penalties handed out during the
thrilling contest.
Over in Hart House SPS had
better luck on the basketball floor.
The Skule fifths gave Meds a good
trimming as they beat the docs
28-13. The winners took a 12-2
lead in the first period. The los-
ers couldn't cut the margin in the
second and saw five points added
to the lead in the final period.
Hawkins hooped seven for Skule
but Meds couldn't produce any-
one with more than four points.
Also on the courts Emmanuel
College looked surprisingly strong
as they trimmed Vic thirds 40-21.

A Smile Tomorrow?
Service with a smile might have been
the niolfco of the Co-ordinating Commit-
tee, except that it has so few opportuni-
ties to smile. Its ".services rendered"
eolumn has been remarkably slight.
The Committee seems to have spent
much of its time alone, somewhat apart
from the milling crowd of extra-curricular
aotivities. The student world has swept
along without l)enefit of co-ordination.
Inspired by Piesident Smith's observa-
tion that "students -were being 'clubbed' to
deafih", last year's SAC proposed the set-
ting up of yet another committee to cut-
through '-the maze of extra-curricular
activities".
Thence, the Co-ordinating Committee
oame into existence. It has only one mem-
Ijer — its Chaittnan. It has no coercive
authority whatsoever — the SAC has no
power to decree what shall or shall not
be in the realm of college and group
activities recognized by the Caput.
Rather. It was supposed to function as
the students' little helper by maJcing col-
lege life something less of the gay, mad
round of activities that it is reputed
to be. All this through mediation-
This was to be done siinply by taliting
reason into all club organizers great and
small, by getting organizations to clear
dates, by amalgamating similar groups
and so on.
To date, literally nothing has been ac-
complished by the Committee. None o£ the
campus gioups have been particularly
interested in notifying the Committee of
the dates of its meetings. And there has
been no Inclination whatsoever from any
groups to get together and be amalgamat-
ed.
Part of the fault lies with the Co-
ordinating Cominittee itself. Lettei-s an-
nouncing its existence and purpose were
not sent out to all oi-ganizations in the
fall. This rather simple and obvious move
wai not undertaken till after Chi'istnias.
Apparently, its Chaiitnan, Chuck Hanly
was laboring under the impression that
SAC members coiild inform him of all
proposed activities in their colleges. This
has proved to be a fatal misapprehension
— even Student Council activities were not
always cleared through its own Co-ordin-
ating Committee.
Nor has the Co-ordinating Committee
been particularly enterprising. Hart House
debates and meetings of the Students'
Administrative Council still occur on the
same night. Mr. Hanly might have in-
vestigated the possibility of changing
these dates much earlier in the year —
and all on his own.
The main service of the Co-ordinating
Committee to date has been to act as a
scapegoat in the squabbles of the Blue
and White Society and the University
College Literary and Athletic Society,
Its future, will, of coui-se, depend en-
tirely on the willingness of the various
organizations to co-operate. In short, its
future would seeoi to be as glootny as its
pas't has been ignominious.
On the other hand, we have heard a
considerable amount of comment from
club organizers recently. Apparently, many
of them are becoming disillusioned witli
the worth of their own woric. Possibly,
they are suffering from organizational
fatigue, but some of them have expressed
the desire to go and hide in a book.
The Co-ordinating Committee may have
a new, and somewhat unexpected role to
play in encouraging organizations (or, at
least some of them) to continue their
existence.

**Tlie Emergeney-
By B.A.K.
When James Thiu-ber perthed the im-
mortal words: 'Tm disenchanted, too.
We're all disenchanted," he had plumbed
a depth of disillusionment which will re-
main the record until man can go down
to despair in a bathysphere. His record,
however, came close to being equalled this
week in Toronto.
Toronto's enviable achievement can be
traced directly to the strike of the To-
ronto Transportation Commission. ("Most
up-to-date above-ground transportation
system in the world.) Of course, when the
strike was fii'st announced no one be-
lieved it could possibly hiuppen, I mean,
not really. Everyone secretly hoped for a
strike, deep down in their own secret
Ids and hiding places, but no one believed
for a minute it would actually come to
pass.
But the TTC struck. One minute life
in Toronto throbbed to the jolting and
banging of steel wheels clattering over
fast -deteriorating tracks while those
clumsy red monsters continued to make
left turns at points chosen long in ad-
vance for maximum automobile disrup-
tion. The next minute — silence.
The hush didn't last for long. Almost
immediately it was replaced by gay
snatches of careless song and the patter
of dancing feet. A holiday mood took
Toronto by tlie throat and shook the city
through its entire length. A gay camara- '
derie found elsewhere only at Chinese
Communist hangings and meetings of the
Students' Administrative Council sprang
up to replace the sober, phlegmatic mien
of Toronto's 9 to 5 set. Joy, as someone
on The Manitoban once said, reigned un-
confined.
The strike began at five in the morn-
ing one Friday, a beautiful clear day, un-
seasonably warm, almost springlike. Until
nine that morning laughter, song and
dance were the order of the day. But,
shortly before nine a new sound began
to mingle with the yodelling, giggling and
shuffling. The wine-soaked revellers, paus-
ing in their carefree carouse, listened in-
tently. Suddenly a little child, its throat
raw from singing, its feet raw from
dancing and its little pink bottom raw
from the chastisements of its over-strict
mamma, lisped the words that were form-
ing in everyone's mind. "Thousands of
cars," the cherub piped, "are being jam-
med into low gear preparatory to going
bye-bye." In the rush to the main traffic
arteries, both the child and its mamma
were trampled into the tar. Too bad.
But the untimely end of the little
sprite and its haggard dame gave no one
pause. The 9 to 5'ers had to get down-
town: there was work to be done, jokes
to be coined, money to t>e made. And

Trinity Sleeves
Editor, The Varsity: '
Mr. Niblock has marred an otherwise excellent
issue of The Varsity with a dreadful mistake.
If Mr. Niblock would take anotlier look at the
Trinity gown, he would, notice he had neglected
to draw it WITH SLEEVES, which it has, and
that no matter how torn, tattered and generally
beaten up a gown gets, it ALWAYS KEEPS ITS
SLEEVES, for several reasons. (A> If one sews
up the bottoms, one can carry lunches in them,
not to speak of stray cats, and a stray Dillon—
who is the Provost's OTHER dog, a juvenile red
setter. (B) There is nothing more valuable than
the sleeve of a gown for wiping mustard, coffee,
crumpets and/or tea off one's clothes or self,
cleaning one's glasses, [wlishing an apple, getting
one caught in doors, etc., etc., etc. (C) A gown "
when dirtied to the proper consistency is proof
against rain, snow, sleet, hail or any other in-
clemencies. (D) One can always wrap one's head
in it and go to sleep.

(Continued on Pago 2)
During the next four days, Toronto students will
be able to hear reasons why they should believe la
the OhrLstian faith, and what such belief means.
In a series of five main talks in Convocation
Hall, and a number of other talks throughout the
camipais, these questions will be answered by mem-
bers of the University Christian Mission.
The Mission, led by Canon T. R. Milford, a
former Vicar of Oxford's University Church, started
last night, and will continue till Thursday.
"We are oat tor conversion," says Canon Milford.
"1»eginning with ourselves. We wish that everyone
who hears us, and every part of everyone, should
take Christ as Master, and the love of God as the
only rule of life."
In his work, the Canon wtU be assisted by a staft
of IS Associate Missioners, who will speak to
various faculty groups. These include Dr. L. H.
Cragg, at present a Professor of Chemistry at
McMaster, and holder of a Toronto PhJD. in
Physical Chemistry ; Rev. H. L. Puxley, General
Secretary of the Student Christian Mission; Prof.
Ursula Nlebuhr, an Oxford grad and head of the
departmertt of reUglon at Barnard College, Cohmi-
bia University.
They will be speaking to faculty groups, apart
from the campus-wide talks to be given by Canon
Milford every day at 5 pm. The Engineering and
Medical Faculties, and Victoria College, will be
hearing speeches from the Associate Missioners
every day at liuncfl. Nursing, Pharmacy, 9oclaI
Work, and OCE will also hear talks by them.
These talks will range from "A Christian Under-
standing of Sex" by Prof. Niehbur, to the necessity
of faith and the uniqueness of Christianity.
The associate missioners will aJso IIv« tn th«
various university and college residences, In order
to be easily at hand for consultation. This has
reaultod in some housing re-arrangements. In ona
residence, for example, the mlssloner is in the don'a
room, the don in the head boy's room, and tha
head boy in the attic. In another residence, bho
residents refused to make room — with the result
there is no mlssloner in that partioilar house.
"What are we here for?" is one of the questions
Canon Milford intends to ar^er this week. 'Ths
modem world ... Is strong on means," he saya,
"but weak when it thinks about ends. Christionit/
declares that apart frwn God, we oaimot know
what we are for, or what we ought to want."
CanoQ HUftM'd compares the universities to tho
Greeks, to whom St. Paul said Christ crucified Is
"foolishness." They live itf free thought, and can-
not regard amy question aa completely closed, ha
continues.
"We reason as men . . . and no one can see tha
whole view undistorted." the Canon answers. "Rea-
soning from ourselves to the ultimate truth, wa
inevitably go astauy. But Christ crucified, accepted
with faith as the revelation of divine love, en-
lightens ft whole rarjge of mysteries with which
reason by Itself caiuiot deal.'*
Book stalls selling texts related to the si^Jects of
the mission — some written by the niissionerB —
will be set up to UC, Trinity, Vic and the Eaiglneer-
'Ing buUding^
Questions raised by the mission will be followed
up in a series of discussions planned for a six-week
period after the coruJuslon of the Mission. Thesa

In the opening speech of tbe Uni-
versity Christian Mission Canon
Milford last night expressed a hope
that there were agnostics in the
audience. We are asking for
thought and decision in this week,
■we welcome criticism and argu-
ment."
Our minds cauiot comprehend
the universe, there is too much of
it and it lasts too long, he said.
We must look for an hitelllgible
plan for the universe but we can
never hope to attain it.
History Is full of man's inhum-
anity to man. People have died of
diseases for which a cure had not
yet been discovered, he said. Can-
on Milford's speech was entitled
"Would God Create a World Like
iTliis?" ,
"If there is a God He made the
world and He made it like this".
Canon Milford declared. "God
must be found in what actually
happened— a God of fact, a living
There is a possibility that things
may go wrong, he said. Living
I things help create themselves by
trial and error.
"Man Is made in the image ol
God" means that man has a share
tn the Divine Nature: he can rea-
, son and plan. "He is akin to ani-
mals on the one side, and akin to
the Creator on the other. This
concept of evolution," Canon Mil-
ford said, "makes sense. It loolts
like a directed process for the de-
velopment of freedom."
Canon MiUord hiterpreted the
story of Adam and Eve to mean
that self-«ifficient beings in con-
trol of their own destiny chose to
abuse this freedom. These risks
of freedom date before man. he
said, citing pre-historlc monstera
who grew so large that they could
not eat as an example.
We should not refuse to consider
why God created the universe, he

Referring to Fred Hoyle's rft«
cent statements on the cosml*
universe, he said that it is unrea-
sonable to expect any clue to tb»
reason for our existence from
methematics and physics. ThU
would be comparable to describ-
ing violin music as simply scrap-
ing a horse's tail over the guts d
a dead cat. he added.
Canon Milford said, "I want ttt

can try to understand part of U
and fit myself in with that part.*
Hoyle. he said, considers material-
ism "excessively disprobable," at
though he cannot disprove it.

Tonight
Scott Simon of the SHARE exec-
utive committee last week express-
ed hope that there would be a big
crowd at the SHARE skating party
tonight. "No problem of space," he
said. "Tliere is certainly lots of
room in Varsity Arena." He lu^d
all students who could stajid up on
skates to come, stag or drag.
The party will feature an even-
ing of skating to the music of the
Porty-eigtith Highlanders' Band,
highlighted by a number of special
events of a competitive nature.
Several Toronto firms have do-
nated prizes, which are said to in-
clude records and free hockey tick-
ets.
The most spectacular game, said
Simon, will be the balloon fight,
which will involve considerable
noise and scuffling. He added a
word of wai'ning to potential pop-
pers, "If someone tmrsts your bal-
loon, put it in your pocket, or be-
hind your ear, or hang it aroimd
your neck, but DONT put it on
the ice!"
Among the quieter g^mes there
will be a conga line, Musical Knees,
a spot-skate, and several lucky-
number draws. An ample supply of
refreshments will be provided for
weaker types who require occasional
food, said Simon.
He concluded by reminding ska-
ters that in case of a thaw tonight

from Haiti. 'X'his dioini has been
hollowed out from one piece of
wood. A newly skinned goatskin
is stretched over die top evening
and stakes hold it tight to the sides
of the drum. When the skin dries
it becomes very taut and on a quiet
evening Guthro said it might be
heard for "five miles."
The music is supposed to repre-
sent songs and rhythms that were
brought over from Africa to the
Caribbean Islands. These
rhythms were then incorporated in-
to the existing music and the result
is what Guthro and his drummers
are trying to achieve.

Lectures On Faith
By Lincoln's Canon
Canon T. K. Millord, * taS
dignified man with a hearty laueb.
Is tile Cliief Missioner of tlie Uni-
versity Christian Mission to be
conducted in Convocation Hal]
from Jan. 2l>-24. His aim U to pr«-
lent Christianity as a reasonable
ftnd consistent way of llle — to
ehow that it is relevant to personal
Bfe, to academic studies at uni-
versity. and to the great social Is-
sues of this age.
In the first great war, Canon Mil-
lord served in Mesopotamia and
India. After talcing his degree at
Oxford and being ordained 10
years later, he returned to India
and taught for 8 years as a Pro-
Jessor of Philosophy in south In-
dia and at St. John's College in
Agra. Concerning India, Canon
Millord is very pleased that the
University of Toronto is putting
on a SHARE campaign to help
Asiatic university students. From
liis 8 years' of teaching, he says
of Indian students, "They lead a
Bimpler life materially, but their
basic problems are very lilte ours.
They too have to adjust them-
selves to modern living to which
their traditional standards are no
longer a sufficient guide."
Canon MUfortI was also former
Vicar of University Church in Ox-
Jord, a position he held all through
the war. Since 1947, he has been
Chancellor of Lincoln Cathedral
In England, where he directs the
training of the clergy and the lo-
gical students. He is the guardian
of one of the four original copies
of the Magna Charta itept in Lin-
coln Cathedral and is technically
responsible for it along with other
ancient documents oS the CSrarch.
This responsibility of safeguarding
important papers in the church
comes down through hl^ry from
the time when there was no dis-
tinction between the church and
state. . J *
bi recent months, be bad debat-
ed with Fred Hoyle of the CBC
and Gilbert Byle, one of the great
living phUosophers. About Hoyle s
broadcast addresses on the na-
ture of the universe, which dis-
turbed many believing people who
never really thought about the size
of the universe or the age of the
earth and who were living in a
"cabbagepatch" world (according
to Hoyle), Canon Millord beUeves
that our idea of God should ex-
tend beyond the cabbagepatch uii-
til it is large enough to include all
that Hoyle talks about.
This is Canon Milford's second
trip to Toronto. He is Interested
in discovering whether Canadian
students have generally less
luiowledge of reUgion than Enghsh
ones, since in England, under the
1944 Education Act, Scripture
teaching is required in all public
schools. But he does not want the
students to swallow all that be has
to teU them vrithout thinMng about
it first, asking questions and dis-
cussing controversial ideas, or
without making up their minds
about the divine truth ol the
Christian faith. He wants every-
one at university to decide for him-
self through the inspiration and
the knowledge of the real relation-
ship of God to man that the Mis-
sion will point out, that what he
beUeves is really the divine truth.

ttie antics of a common little ^ttersnipe suddenly

a gentleman's bouse. Usually actresses are so very
squeamish about actually being common that they
tend to be too coy about it. Fortunately tftiere
was no nuere pretense; Higgins and Eliza were real
people. However, when the professor is accused
time and again of being sloppy, untidy, imconfcroll-

a great bully, why does he stand so nicely — profile
on, hands in pockets — talking pleasantly and pre-

If it is true that the University

of human thought which we call
the humanities, is harder and hard-
er to dig up.
We seem to be rapidly apprcAch
ing a point where to merely insist
that men should try to widen their
area of thinking beyond teolmicrJ

an aroh reactionary,
• • •
One school of thought on the sub-
ject of university education trans-
fers most of the problem into a
wider, and ultimately more ser-
ious, locus. They take it back to
the primary and secondary school;
where they claim the world is r^al
ly living.
Those who argue in this way
them any training for life.
"Both the schools and the uni-
versity are guilty of widesp-vead
failure." claims Hart House War-
den Nicholas Ignatieff. "They are
not developing intelligent habits of
mind In their students.*'
It is a point of view that Is echo-
ed and substantiated by the par-
ents of two or tliree younger gen-
erations.
Yet while the nniversities' prob-
lem may lie ultimately in tbe
schools, and may indeed be reme-
died by changes in school training
designed to give students '"intelli
of things and with being accepted.
It i* not a crown they wear well.
Even a glance at the University
of Toronto will readily show some-
tiling of this. The charge, like mud,
is hard to make stick permanently.
Yet a glance at Presidential re-
ports which tell of increasing finan-
cial dlffiinjlties shows one of th#
motivating factors. Public educa-
tion must please the public or they
will not support It. The pointed
comments about the easily avall-
aible millions for science soon blos-
som on the campus in the form of
buildings for chemical researtli and
study, for mechanical research and
study.
Those unkind rnough to notice It
have pointed out another interest-
ing thing about building at thto
university: when the Athletic As-
sociation wanted $650,000 for a new
stadium, they got it. When students
ask similar amounts for a student
union, thej- are put off and put off
and finally told no. Stadiums ar*
good business, and also sound pub-
licity gainers. Student unions dont
have that virtue.
There seeans to be some aU-
powerful urge in university admin-
istrations to make themselves rea-
dily and strongly acceptable to pub-
lic opinion. Perhaps the economic*
of the situation are such thnt there
is no other way. But excesses aiw
creeping slowly and surely in, and
are (tianfing the character of our
universities in ways that spell their
doom.
Anyone who has read recent re^*
ports on the unlversify younj
(Time's Younger Generation, for
example) cannot have but failed to
lie impressed with students' willing-
ness to conform. When we say
there are no rebels any more, we

Cities somewhere describes the
mediaeval university: "It made
explicit, concrete and systematic
one of the enduring functions of
the city: withdrawal for immedi-
ate practical responsibilities and
the critical reappraisal and renew-
al of the cultural heritage."
It is perhaps unwise to hark
back to the middle ages, yet in
some ways such a definition of
the function of a university seems
suited to modern conditions. If
there was ever a time when we
more strongly needed people who
were re-appraising and renewing
their cultural heritage, it is now.
It is probably true that what the
middle ages had is not for us. Yet
the Mimilord description puts me

came no closer than that during
the rest of the bout.
The other three bouts, one of
them an exhibition went on the
record books as falls. Jim How-
ard pUioed Pitman at 231 of the
first period. Howard had very
little trouble In getting Ithaca five
points as Pitman was very nervous
Paul Thoman dropped Leon Smith
in 27 seconds of the second per-
iod. Leon was replacing Bill
Ch>*aliuk and made a creditable
showing in his first big-time bout
against the powerful Thoman.

Saturday night a very colorful
fistic show took place at Hart
House. Of the eight bouts fought,
four were Senior Interfaculty
Championship bouts and four were
exhibition bouts. The events did
not go off just as planned, for
several of the contestants were un-
able to attend.
,J>on Barris from Forestry, is the
new 130 pound Senior Intramural
Champion, after he defeated Bob
Eve from SPS. via e, TKO after
only 1 minute and ten seconds of
the first round. Harris is a much
more experienced lighter and he
was able to land one right to the
lace after another, until the
referee halted the bout.
The 147 pound final between Vic
Prendergast, 9P6, and B. Zar-
ousky, UC. was definitely the best
bout (rf the four Senior IntramuraL even.
finals. Both opponents were pretty
even, for though Prendergast was
obviously more experienced, Zarou-
sty packed a very hard punch.
Prendergast forced the fight from
the opening bell, but he didn't fare
so well in the first two rounds and
was stopped In his tracks several
times by Zarousky's hard counter-
punch. In the third round how-
ever. Prendergast took over and
chased Zarousky around the ring,
landing flurry after flurry. The
title went to Prendergast <m a
spilt declson.
Andy Potter from Trinity de-
feated J. Smith from UC in the
155 pound class and took the
Senior title by a unanimous de-
cision. It was closely contested,
hard slugging bout and Potter
slowly acquired control, after l>e-
tng on the defensive througtiout
most of the first round.
The 175 pound title was copped
by O. Hevenor from Vic, who de-
feated R. Smith from Meds by a
unanimous decision. Throughout
the first round both boys were
feeling each other out, but once
HevencH- got used to his okkui-
ent's southpaw style, the bout ac-
quired a much faster clip and
HevencT pounded away at every
opportunl^. Late hi the bout

At noon Friday In the arena »

was defeated 3-0 by a slower,
smoother, more powerful Vic out-
fit. The first goal for the Scarlet
and Gold was scored by Paul Vfal-
ton on a pass from Don Marshall
midway through the first period.
For the balance of that period the
play ranged back and forth from
one end to the other, with the
Skulemen outskatlng tiielr oppon-
ents but getting very few shots on
the Vic goal.

The 165 final between t. Wade
and P. Fisher, both from SPS. did
not take place, when Fisher was
unaible to compete.
Among the exhibition bouts, the
ones between Norm Green (155)
and Pete Petcoff (165), and be-
tween Howie Greely ( 175) and
Mark Wlant (Heavyweight) were
the highlights of the evening. In
the first one, the two Skulemen
merrily proceeded to slug It out.
Some very good boring was seen,
and though Green had the superior
each, his opponent took full ad-
vantage of his extra weight. The
other bout proved to be an exhi-
bition of superior boxing and
peed uncommon in that weight.
Both boys hit very hard but with-
stood the punches very well. The

boxing though also that lack of en-

Pianist Paints
Broad Canvas
If this review had been written
immediately after the recial given
by Gina Ba:hauer last Hiuisday In
Massey Hall, it would have been al-
most unqualified in its praise of
her pianisni. Alter a few days' re-
flection, however, I realize that I
was really awed by a transcendent
technique which completely con-
trolled every resource of the piano.
The total effect of the recital left
me unsatisfied, although this Is not
to imply that none of the recital
was worthwhile. Mme. Bachauer is
a pianist in the grand tradition of
Rachmaninoff: she uses a broad
canvas and paints on it with
brushes of all sizes using all shades
of tone.
Opening with the Vivaldi Concer-
to in D minor, she displayed her
mighty technique and a majestic
conceijtion of the work. The con^
trast of the Mozart Sonata in G
(K. 2«3), with its rapid, delicate
phrases was extreme. The outside
movements were played at a tem-
pestuous speed, leg^iero through-
out, and the effect was breathtak-
when they beat the Blues 70-63 on
foul shots. Assumption toot 36
foul shots, scored 24, while the
Blues sank only nine out of 26, al'
though they potted four more field
goals than their Windsw rivals.
The Blues were ahead 14-10 at
the end of the first quarter, but
went behind 25-34 by the end of
the half as Assumption had a hot
second period. Lou Lukenda scor-
ed 16 points. DJn Pawcett got 10,
and Ray Monnot 8.

asked, why did she choose to nlay

her mighty approach to the piano

turne in D flat : harp minor
as stated on t; an). The A
flat Polonaise, ot was made
for her, and she did not fall to em-
phasize the heroic proportions of
this work.
All through the recital I had look-
ed forward to the Ravel Gaspard de
la Nult. I was not disappointed.
She had completely mastered the
technical demands of this work,
which Ravel Intended to be of
•transcendental virtuosity" more
difficult than Islamey. Utilizing all
her paints and brushes, she pro-
jected a vivid, shimmering wall of
aoimd into the hall. I thought this
performance alone was worth ths
price of admission.

OUR READERS WRITE
Let^s Face It
Editor, The Varsity:
Tlie Varsity editorial of the 14th of
January was one of the better ones to
appear this year. The approach to the
necessity of understanding the problems
of Asia was maturely dealt with. But why
spoil the preliminary sage remarks by
such melodramatic drivel as the last para-
graph, which read, "It is one thing for
Asia to be poor but proud; it is another
matter entirely for her to starve to death.
The latter, western countries must pre-
vent."
Let's face it. Asia is starving- because
she indirectly wants to starve. Sure, we
will contribute to SHARE, Care, or any-
thing else. We welcome Asiatics to our
universities. But Asia's problem lies partly
in the answer to the question of why
Asiatic men and women, professionally
trained in Western Schools, return to Asia
and proceed to raise families of six chil-
dren. Can this be a good example to the
illiterate peasant and coolie?
The problem is relatively simple — the
carrying capacity (agriculture, natural re-
sources, and industrial output)
great enough in abnormal times tat i?
present populations in the Asiatic co '
tries outside of the USSR. A bare subj;
tence economy prevails, which is ups^j ^
famine or floods in adverse clii„,jj^
periods.
It would be unfair to the educai
Asiatics or ourselves to believe that
terial aid can solve the problem. It wo^j
merely relieve stress on a local and sho^
term basis. It may be argued that increa,,
ing the carrying capacity to fit the pop,_
lation would be the most logical solution
The development of this theme is limited
A country is endowed with only so ttiucl,
arable land and mineral wealth. India a
China suffer from a lack of one or ti,,
other in various forms. In spite of thi,
statistics indicate that the population if
China will double, from 450 million to 901]
million by the turn of the century, ajj
India will be close behind.
Yes, they are starving themselves to
death. Some people have another word
for it.

Plan For Glory
"American's ignorance 'fantastic'", said a Globe and
Mail headline referring to Republican representative Timothy
Sheehan's proposal to annex Canada to the United States.
Fantastic! Utter rot. It's a colossal idea. It is ridiculous
to consider paying Britain for our land but why shouldn t
wp pmh in on the capitalists' chips, not to mention the odd pi^re with you me nationist ten-
TthleUc scholarship, carton of cigarettes and two Thanks- - th, nresant .overn-
giving Days tossed into the bargain?
In short, we have a prospective buyer who delights in
tossing money about madly, so now is the time to sell.
Naturally there are small details which would have to be
dealt with. Americans would have to learn our two official
lant'uages, French and English; while we would have to
gra'so at least the rudiments of American, if not the subtler
implications of Brooklynese, Floridese, Texese and all the
other spoken tongues. Language barriers would be very
difficult to overcome.

And Americans get things done. The Alberta Pipe Dream
and St. Laurent's Seaway would be finished in no time.
But the time we had uprooted the maple trees and
planted charter oaks, the red-blooded American and the
street owners and annexed
Canada as the eleventh province.
We further proposed that a Ca-
nadian governor be appointed
untU such time as the settlers
are capable of electing a provin-
cial government.
Some of the benefits to file
. colonists which might be de-
true-bleu Canadien would mingle to form the dynamic purple ^ived from this magnaminious
Americanad, building an industrial domain stretching from s^fflhe^w^ would be ended and
Reno to Chubb Crater.
Our government could easily be adapted to that of Wash-
ington. Senators Duplessis and Kefauver would make a
forceful team fighting crime; plain-spoken Lester Pearson
would do well in Congress; Vincent Massey would have to be
dropped, of course . . . too cultural; and Louis St. Laurent
would have to wear more colourful shirts.
The possibilities of such a union are staggering. WitW
Canada's raw materials and the States' industrial power we
would have a forceful empire which could sit back and
thumb its nose at the world. In time we would become so
wealthy that we could buy up other countries . . . first
Mexico, then on into South America . . . then the Pacific, bit
by bit . . . and finally Asia, Europe, and Africa. The world
would be ours. One united democracy. Peace would be secure.
The four freedoms would flourish.
And what hinders all this? We do, sitting at home shak-
ing our heads at this fantasic, ignorant American. By all
means, let us sell ourselves to the United States.
Mind you, this should be no Manhattan Island deal.
Virgin land is much too scarce these days. We must demand
a good price. Let's say about ten million southern comforts,
a new subway for Moose Factory, a replica of the University
slavery ajboli^hed.
2) equal rights and privileges
with all Canadians would be ao .
corded to ail literate adults.
3) their standards of living
would be raised (by introducing
the TTC to them and giving them
radio and the CBC)
4) the new Canadians would
now have freedom of speedi and
thought.
There will be some compensa-
tion to us if we buy Florida from
Spain. California and Texas from
Mexico, in the opportunity for
almost unlimited Canadian ex-
pansion provided, and our in-
creased dignity as a member of
the world family of nations.

a r n m e n t ' • for "Dominion".
"Canadian Post" for "Royal
Mail" and so forth should have
been made, and why a Canadian
should be considered more suit-
able as Governor-General than
and Englishman? It might be
pointed out that the use of the
old terms can do no conceivable
harm to the prestige of the
country, nor, to answer another
argument, is the salary paid an
English Governor-General "wast-
ed" since it is almost entirely
spent in Canada. You have sug-
gested that a wave of national-
ism is responsible for these
moves. If this is so, what is re-
sponsible for this wave of .
nationalism and, if not, what al-
ternative can be suggested?
It has been pointed out that
Canada might wish to sever her
ties with Britain for a variety of
reasons: for instance, lest Brit-
ain should wish to dominate and
control Canada (a situation
quite impossible to imagine at
present, and one which is far
from the minds of British people
at any time>, or alternatively,
lest Canada should be burdened
with the weight of a broken
and impoverished defenceless
Britain, like a millstone around
her neck. I certainly hope that
Canadians are not guilty of such
morbid pessimism, or should
such a situation arise, such gross
dereliction of moral duty. Other
arguments have been proposed
along these same lines, all of
which become very pallid in the
light of critical examination,
It appears, therefore, tiiat th*
reasons for this "Canadianiza.
tion" movement lie in the sur^
of nationalism already notel
The question at once arises, whi
should there be a surge of qs-
tionalization at this time? It
does not appear to have any his-
torical or sociological back-
ground, nor has any genera! «•
pression of pubhc opinion beea
sought or made. I would like tfj
suggest that it is the result of so
inferiority complex among th;:l
portion of the government wiiidi
has been most concerned wiib
this movement^a vicarious com-
plex, felt, probably miskuidedlj,
for Canada as a whole, and lea'i-
ing to rather childish att^inpi
to bolster the national morai^-
The causes underlying
complex, should I think, be fi'
amined by politicians and i^J;
chologists. I think that it woilI
'be interesting, and I should I'M
to hear what they have to say.
The last question I should
to raise is, exactly who in
government is responsible

Hillel Debaters Decide
Jewish students from eastern
Canadian Universities and from a
few American universities will be
converging on Montreal Thursday
night for the annual Inter-Hillel
Conference, which is being held at
McGlIl University this year.
25 meipbers of the University of
Toronto HiUel group have register-
ed this year to go to the confei-ence,
which attempts to bring together
Jewish students from different
universities for an exchange of
ideas.
The conference will feature a
number of organized activities, in-
cluding seminars and discussions,
in which all students may partici-
pate. However, the visitors to
Montreal will be allowed a lot of
spare time for sightseeing and
shopping in Canada's largest city.
Ono of the highlights of the con-
ference will be the Sabbath eve
fellowship on Friday night at
which choirs and readings from
Jewish literature be featured. The
main speaker of the evening
A. M. Klein, -Who will speak on
"What the Jewish Heritage Meens
to Me."
On Saturday morning there will
be a service in the chapel and an
address by Dr. A. Jospe of New
York on ''The Sabbath and the
Jewish Student" and the evening
will be spent at a musical revue
and a gala dance at the Hlllel
House of McGill.
The climax of the whole confer-
eiKe will be the final debate on
Sunday morning. The whincrs of
"the debates between Che Univer-
sity of Toronto and Sir George
William's College, Montreal, will
oppose the winners of the McQill-
Queen's debate over the resolution
■That World Jewry Endorse a
Program of Negotiating with Ger-
many for Reparations". The pre-
liminary debates were held last

that Hebrew day schools were
"attempts to place children in an

from the sUngs and arrows of

The Jewish culture must be kept

Chesed as meaning "tile right be-

This, according to Prof. Heichel-

it pre-supposed a close affinity be-

In a little room above a garage
at &7 St. George Street, a few stud-
ents gathered together last January
to form an art group. This group,
which was soon joined by a few
faculty members and non-students,
planned to hold creative relaxa-
tion evening under the guidance
of sculptress Clair Hellar.
In these evenings the group listen
to good music, hold discussions,
and try their hand at modelling
in clay while Miss Hellar discusses
the technical aspecUs of her art
and its religious applications.
Miss Hellar believes that if man
was created in the image of God.
then he has creative ability, and
there must be many people going

Coat Thieves Thwarted
At Varsity, Police Hope
By DON BURWASH
With the arrest and subsequent
eentencing of three men recently.
City Police and University police
botii expressed the hope yesterday
that the wave of coat thefts from
University buildings would dimin-
ish.
The arrests cDlmlnatcd weeks of
diligent investigating and patient
■waiting by city morality officers
following student complaints of
coat thefts from Hart House, An-
atomy, Medical and Electrical
buildings, and two St. George St.
buildings.
A morality officer. Const. Dukes,
gpent days casually loitering about
Hart House, planting station wagon
coats and watching for the thief.
Mingled with the undergrads, the
youthful plainclothes detective
blended well with the environ-
ment. His days of patient watch-
ing were rewarded with the arrest
of a man. who later pleaded guil-
ty to thirty-odd coat theft charg-
es.
Pawn Shops and second-hand
stores across the city have yield-
ed gabardine, winter and station
waggon coals, which detectives
have gathered in a basement store-
room at police lieadquarters on
College Street.
University police chief R. D'Arcy
said yesterday that two 25-year-
old youths, formerly residents of
nearby Grosvenor St., had been
sentenced to twelve and eighteen
month prison terms upon convic-
tion of coat thefts from campus
buildings and neighboring restaur-
ants. City police found coats in
their room when arrested.
"Some of these thJeves fail to
realize that when the pawnbroker
asks for his name and address,
the dealer is actually writing
down the seller's description for
police benefit," he staled. Pour
city policemen spend every day
checking second-hand shops and
pawnbrokers.
"It seems rather foolish for stu-
dents to leave a good coat out-
side a lecture room or lab, invit-
ing a thief to walk off with it", he
added.
Const. Dyce of police stores add-
ed that most students are unable
to identify their coats to police
satisfaction. "The majority can't
even name the manufacturer of
theii- apparel. We plan to return
most of the remaining coats to the
shops," he said.
A detective officer at police
headquarters denied that student
claimants were forced to repay the
pawnbroker and second-hand deal-
er the money he advanced to the
thief for the coats. "No one is un-
der any compulsion to pay the five
or six dollars to recover the coat;
the proprietors may be sued in a
civil court to get the coat back",
he added.
A second year medical stodent
last week paid six dollars to re-
cover his topcoat, with the hope
of being repaid the sum from a
floater insurance policy. Police
officials, however, denied that he
was under any compulsion to pay
the sum.

"How God Deals With Evil"
Choirman: Mr. John Devereux,
President of the Victoria College Union
"The ODiy way capitallsin can and ever will
function, is during a war, a fact which has been
amptly proved by the world situation". This is fche
thesis which Professor Lome T. Morgan ironical-
ly propounds in one of his booklet* "The Perman-
ent War, or, Hpmo the Sap".
The booklet is an economic satire on our present
economic and political set-up. Dr. Morgan, Associ-
ate Professor of Political Economy, accuses both
Stalin and Truman of stealing his idea, "without
giving either credit or royalty. I am somewhat
peeved!"
Dr Morgan has been on the staff of the Univer-
sity of Toronto for the past twenty yeais. He was
bom in the United States, but moved to the Man-
times in infancy. At ten years of age. he moved
to Vancouver. "Rather, my pai-ents did the mov-
ing. I just went along for the ride."
He Uved in Vancouver for 18 years, getting his
B-A. at the University of British Columbia in
Political Science and Economics. Then he went
to the University of California on a fellowship
where he took his M-A. and Ph.D. degrees. For
six years he remained on the staff at California
as instructor in Economics, and then came to the
University of Toronto.
Dui-ing his twenty years here, he has been on
leave of absence to the University of Buffalo, lec-
turing in industrial relations, and to the War-
time Information Board in Ottawa during 1944-45
as director of research.
Five years in the Merchant Navy during and
after World War I started Dr. Morgan on his ex-
tensive travels. Ti-ue to the advertising slogan of
the navy. "Join the navy and see the world", he
visited the Orient, Alaska, the South Seas, and
many other parts of the globe during his sei-vice.
He has been on many trips t« Europe, largely
for study purposes. One of his most exciting and
dangerous trips was in 1939. He spent most of the
year in Germany and Italy, studying Fascism in
fche countries which provided the best examples of
that ideology. He worked in secret most of the
time. "I would have found it inconvenient had
my presence been announced."
As it was, the monllis were spent in the midst
of one crisis after ano ler. "The question in most
foreigners' minds was, :io we leave now or tomor-
row?" While he was in Italy, Fi-anco triumphed
in Spain, "an event wildly celebrated in Italy",
Mussolini took Albania, and the famous Pact of
Steel was signed.
Then, on August 15, he left for Germany. He
6La>;^d in Vienna until fche BritLsn Oonsrid
him out, for his own protection. He was warn ^
not to go north through Gennanj', and went
Budapest, Hungarj'. He was caught there
war broke out. and was there during the signi!'^
ol the pact between Russia and Geimany i>},^
he fled by train to Trieste, "from the frying J"
to the fire", and eventually made his way to
land, and then back to Canada.
and
Since then he has wiitten many pamphlet^
articles on Fascism, such as "Fascism: from 77
igins to matinity, in theory and prjictice" an^i '
"State Intervention, in fche Economic Life of' pa.
cist Italy".
"Fascism stai'ted first in Italy, succeeded first
and lasted longest there. But it Is far from (iis.
appearing from the world scene. It is latent today
and in such countries as Spain. Portugal and At'
gentina, it is thriving. If World War in comes
there is a strong likelihGOd of it developing else.'
where." Dr. Morgan describes fascl=m as an ad-
vanced type of economic nationalism, with almost
certain guarantee of war sooner or Inter.
State intervention is not limited to Fascist gov-
ernments, believes Dr. Morgan. "State intervention
in the economic lite of a country is here to &tay
in some form or other. The big question today is,
who intervenes, how much, and for what purpo^^e".
In one of his coui'ses, he discusses this question,
taking examples of its growth from the United
States under a Liberal- Democratic set-up, Italy
under the fascist set-up, and the U.S.S.R, under
the Communist set-up.
Tlie New Deal is the example Dr. Morgan uses
from fche American economy. "The United Stat«
was the most ruggedly individualistic country in
the world until fche New Deal came m. It niarked
a turning-point in her economic and political his.
tory The goal of the New Deal was to rewind an
economic svst&m which had l-un down, and at Uie ■
same time to eliminate some of its grosser abuse?.
The result, inevitably, was a rapid growth of .state
intei-ventic-n in the economic life of the country."
Tlie issue of the New Deal is still a souicc ot
hot controversy in the United States today, Dr,
■Morgan feels. "The coming election will be fought
on it as mucfi as on the issue of fo?eign policy.
Against Truman's version, called tlie Fair Deal,
is Senator Taft's non- interventionist policies. In-
cidentally, Taft is non-interventionist except in
the field of agriculture. The fact that his con-
stituency is largely agriculfcutat.ipay account (or
this one exception!" '-^

I f*ted by C, R. Cholmers. Ryerson Press
1952, Paper $2.00, Clotii $2 50
Taking its cue from the world-
scale attempts of UNESCO to edu-
cate peoples all over the world with
regard to the traditions from which
they have sprung, and to give them
direction for the future. The Gen-
eral Council of the United Church
of Canada authorized a Conunission
on Culture 'to write a report that
would evaluate modem culture
from the standpoint of the
Church'. The Report compUed by
this Commission was published in
1950 under the title The Chm-ch
and the Secular World, the first
section of which dealt with the ori-
gin and developmeiit of Western
Oulture.
The Heritage of Western Culture
is a revised and expanded account
of this first section of The Church
and the Secular World, and .has
just been published by Ryerson
Pi'ess in inexpensive paper and
cloth editions for the general pub-
lic. Coining at an extremely oppor-
tune time. The Heritage of Western
Culture will provide students with
a compact historical account of the
problems now being discussed by
the University christian Mission.
An attempt to gather together in
tile short space of 117 pages the
past tradition from whence we have
derived our present standards and
at the same time to interpret the
signs of the times and throw
forward-looking glance is quite
large order- We felt that Professors
WTilte and Irving did the most with
the subject assigned to thetn in
the short sipace at their- disposal.
Miss White did a difficult job with
ease. Professors Graham, Coiisland
and Chalcners were dealing with a
civilization, Pi«f. Graham's article
on the Hebraic Contributions, for
instance, gives evidence of a tre-
mendous amount of work and
scholarship on his part, but Is
rather a large theme to be assimi-
lated by the average reader.
In deaUng with the modem scene,
both Professors Frve and Irving
seem to feel that the great techno-
logical discoveries of our era and
the techniques which the scxiial
sciences have uncovered are both
tools man must learn to control
and use. The end for which man is
.striving, and the only one which
can give him a position of control
over these va.st powers is for these
writers a religious goal. If we do
not approacii modern life with an
ethical directive grounded in uni-
versal moral values, if we do not
use our great physical powers to
'baffle evil and tyranny, then these
elements will gain control over us
— the smile, to use Professor Prye's
analogy, will toe on the face of the
tiger.

0£ US Economist
SCHUMPETER: SOCIAL SCIENTIST. Edited by Prof. Horris, S, 1. Reginold Sounders,
1951, 55.50.
Professor Harris, who edits this volume, was fortunate in being
able to gather together as competent a collection of economists as he
has. The result is a book, which does fuU justice to the best aspect of
Schumpeter's work written by colleagues who knew him well, eitiher
at Harvard or abroad. But at the same time it suffers from an uneven-
ness of tone that is inevitable in a work of this kind.
However, this is all beside the point. The book's main value
lies In being as excellent an account of Schumpeter's system as can be
found anywhere — especially in the essays by Marget (who almost turns
Schumipeter into a KejTiesian). Habeiler and Hansen who manage to
bring out the fuJl significance of Schumpeter's contribution to dynamic
economic theory. In a sense economics has not yet caught up to the
breadth of vision that he displayed in 1911; but in another sense,
Schumpeter never caught up with modem economics.
Most of the writers seem bothered, though few admit It, by
Schumpeter's persistent refusal to admit any trace of modern theory
into his system. Perhaps it is, as Samuelson suggests, that "he was
too self-conscious to let old-age clutter up the aesthetic life-line laid
down by the genius of youth". At any rate. Econometrics, for all his
Siponsoring of it, imperfect competition, Keynes, none of these made
any impression on his system. !
Especially Keynes. Schumpeter's antipathy to Keynes appears j
to have been almost personal, despite the many similarities between >
two-fold quest. It attempts to de-
scribe the search of India and Pa-
kistan for a new fnture in their an-
cient land, but it also embodies the
writer's seeking after fresh sources
of hope in a continent hillierto
outside her experience."
Miss BrittAin's visit to India was
undertaken as a member of a world
conference called by some followers
of Gandhi who were interested in
the ideas and techniques of peace-
making embodied in Ihe principle
of Satyagraha or Non- Violence.
These followers wanted to discuss
the possibility of using Gandhi's
principles in solving post-war prob-
lems, and in the creation of peace
through spiritual power. The main
centres of the confeience were at
Santinlketan where Tagore founded
his university, and Gandhi's adi-
ram at Sevagram. During her nine-
week stay, the author travelled over
most of India, visited all her main ,
cities, and talked with many of her I
most important political personali-
ties.
This book emerges a.s a serioia
and paUistaking record of (he new
India seen in the light of Us suc-
cessful struggle towards a renais-
sance after long yeans of inertia
and foreign domination. We are
given much information a*; to the
ideas and lives of the three great
men who were the insniration and
initiators of this resurgencp: Gan-
dhi's prophet and leader, Tajore,
poet and philosopher, and Nehru,
the present Prime Minister, 'me
tone of the book throughout is col-
ored by Miss Brittain's own sym-
pathy with the aims of these men.'
The reader is apt to feci that the
crucial question of India-Pakistan
relations is too slcetchily l rented,
but on the whole Mis.s Britlain haa
been more successful tlum most in
her attempt to present Tr-Hii the
West.

In B ixjU'^h and poorly-played
major league b-ball game Friday
Sr. Meds stiaded Sr. SPS 28-36-
Both teams played at their worst
but tdie boys from Meds seemed to
have a definite edge despite the
close scoie. Tliere were thirty-four
louls including one technical called
by the referees.
Bill Page and Joe Greenberg

and It was their playing Uiat gave
Meds the win. The best man for the
losers wa5 Hank Tamowski who

Skule took a five-point lead In
the first quarter but the Docs had

Wilson Scores 3
In a scrambly, rather disorganized
looking game, yesterday. Sr. S.P.S..
led by Wilson's hat-trick, were def-
initely the better team as they
doubled the score on Sr. Meds. 6-3.
The hapless Meds sextet seemed at
no time to have the edge in play, al-
though they opened the scoring in
the game, when Zotelny notched one
on a screened shot from the blue-
line after two minutes of the first
frame.
To match tbe lone Meds' tally,
SIcuIe sank three. The first two,
from Beattie and Wilson were slap-
ped in due mainly to some poor
defensive clearing by the Meds-
men. The third tally came near the
of the period, when Raftls sailed
in, drew the defence to the cornei*
and flipped out to Crann, who pick-
ed the open corner. The only
penalty of the game came at the
end of the first frame, when Hyde
was hoofed to the sin-bin for trip-
ping Smith of Skule on a break-
away.

Eric Kofmel. the closest replica

Interfaiulty 100 yards yesterday in
11.1 seconds, just three-tenths of a
secnnd off the record. Owing to the
fact that the race has to be run
around a bend at Hart House, the
time would be equal to anywhere
from about 10.1 to 103 on an out-
door ti-aok.
Kofmel, a well-built 190 pounds
on a 6'1" frame, is having his best
year in track since coming to the
University four years ago. He won
the Intercollegiate quarter mile last
fall in 51.9 seconds.
Runner-up in the 100 yaixls was

athletic
.circlet! hereabouts. In fact, both have made a good start in
that line already.
John Stulac, a graduate of PHE at Toronto in 1948,
Joined the Physical Education staff last fall. His younger
brother. George, enrolled in Phys Ed.
John, as a staff man. has of course not been acquiring
the printer s ink that George has. Formerly Associate Phys-
ical Director at West End Y, he has taken on the duties of
staff man in charge of swimming at Varsity, which means
getting material out for the swim team, helping Cres Mc
^atty at coaching where necessary, taking the acquatics
classes for Bronze Medallion and Red Cross Swimmers, and
drilling the volunteer instructors who take charge of those
unfortunates who take swim classes for PT credits.
George is Varsity's best bet for an entry in the XV Olym
piad at Helsinki this summer. A red-hot basketball player
who topped the TSSAA in scoring with Western Tech last
year, and whom Bob Masterson considers one of the three
best basketball players at Varsity now. he decided to forego
Senior basketball this year in order to keep up his swim-
ming. A specialist in the 100 yards and 220 free style, he did
54 flat in the 100 in the relay here last Saturday. The Cana-
dian record is 52.2.
ActualTy. John was in a large way responsible for
George's coming to Varsity. Last year John was set for a
transfer to the London YMCA, and George was going to en-
roll at Western. Then John got his appointment at Varsity,
and George decided to stay in Toronto after all.
The effect on this year's swim team has been remark-
able. George, along with backstroke artist Bill Mcllroy, and
freestyler Doug Gibson (all former pupils of John at West
End Y), went down to Detroit last month and placed second
is the State Swim Meet beaten only by Detroit Turner, 44-26
in a field of 15 entries. George won the hundred that day in
54:8. Since 24 of Detroit's points were made on relays, it is
possible that Toronto could have won had they entered a
■fourth man good enough to make up a relay team..
The Blue team, under John Stulac and Cres McCatty,'
will certainly be a contender for the intercollegiate swim
title. Whether George Stulac garners Olympic honours this
year or not, his scoring pace with the Orphuns has "in-ictioaJ-
ly guaranteed him a key spot with future Blue cage teams
book a 3-2 lead in the first period
and the te^ms shared the honors in
the second. There were six penal-
ties handed out in the game which
closed with on excitin™ rush as the
Stulemen tried to tie the score.
Weese sparked the wiim^rs with two
goals in a eood display.
Also on Friday UC ni downed
SPS in in a very close game. The
Redmen tof?l: a 4-1 lead in the first
period as Ken Kurt perfomied a
hat trict b'-it the Skulemen fought
back in the final period outscoring
UC 3-1. Tlie game was roiit-?h

The .spring term sports schedule is beginning to take
shape, and from all accounts every corner is well covered.
Intercollegiate Basketball begins Wednesday, when the
Varsity gals head for McMaster for a double bill InteiTned-
iate and Senior tourney. At later dates there will be games
with Normal School squad, O.A.C. and possibly a team of
O.C.E. grads, if there are enough in the vicinity that have
kept in training. And then there is the big IntercoU meet at
Queen's February 22 and 23, to decide the 1952 home of the
Bronze Bab;
The Badminton club has slated the Intramural meet
for the morning of the 29 and 30 of this month to be follow
ed by the Intercollegiate competition at MeGill on the 15 and
16 of February. From all reports the U. of T. gang should be
able to carry off the honors without much difficulty.
The bowling girls are out to win national laurels in the
Canadian Intercollegiate telegraphic meet this week.
Hockey, volleyball and skiing are all going concerns.
The hockey and v-ball intramurals are run off daily, and
busses leave for Newmarket every Sunday to carry the sla-
loming and schussing gals to snowy slopes. The first of
March- will see the volleyball Intercollegiate tourney at Mc-
Master and the Intramural ski meet at CoUingwood.

I nH witty dialogue of Mozart's B-
tolunted by Mr. De Kresz's turbid
playing and misplaced accents. The
beautiful Cesar Franck Sonata in
A Major, was attacked with im-
passioned fia-y, but the result was
mmuddledness which degenerated
into complete chaos at the climac-
tic dose.
Ai the Museum theatre, in a cou-
cert presented by the Toronto Music
Lovers* Club, Mir. and Mrs. de Kresz
performed a great deal better. They
did a very fine jcto on Richard
Strauss' E Plat Major Sonata
(Opus 18). Mr. de Kresz caught its
shifting moods of pensive lyrical
tranquility and colourful vigorous
movement and he was completely
up to the tremendous finale of this
sonata.
Undoubtedly Mr. de Kresz's most
outstanding performance over the
week-end was that of the Suite No.
2, a new Canadian work by Patricia
Blomfield-Holt. Originally written
for the viola, MLs.s Blomfield-Holt
has very successfully transcribed it
for the violin, and it is about to be
published. The conipc-ser shows a
sensitive awareness of the techni-
cal lyrical capacities of the violin.
The work consists of three con-
trasting movements, each even in
texture, a melodious, Introe^ective
Lento, with its tlieoie in modern
intervals, an emotional, vigorous
Allegretto, and a witty, quick-mov-
ing Allegro.
The Suite is not philosophically'
profound but tends more to the
Prokofieffean type of lightness. It
was extremely interesting, both in
form and matter, and I would
stHM^ly recommend it to violijiists
who are searching for modem and
worthwhUe works to Inchide in
their repertory.

The Ej€P&t Sheep
By LABRY DARRELI,
Tlte University of Toronto -sits basldng smugly in its
tolerance. :nul at the same time celebrating a Discrimination
iWeek on ilie campus.
With the arrival of the University Christian Mission,
the Ciimi LIS has gone wholeheartedly Christian, rearranging
residence lacilities. throwing open its halls and its heart to
Ifche Miss . ,iers, and stepping quite out of character to^do so.
This University has a long roster of non-Christian mem-
bers. Ho\.v,ver, the wholehearted endorsation of the Univer-
sity ChrioLian Mission which it has undertaken discrimin-
ates against them just as surely as if a hotel-keeper closed
its door to Jews. But for the duration of Discrimination
Week, t\w non-Ohristian is the forgotten man.
Still the University says, as a kind of a second motto,
let all voices be heard. Where else, it asks, shall we find the •
Truth that Shall Make Us Free? Though the more conserv-
ative frown, the University allows free-thinkers and fellow-
travellers to operate freely. It is even a little proud of its
tolerance. And now, for a week, we repeat, the non-Christian
is a forgotten man. It is tacitly expectetl that he will main-
tain a tactful silence for the duration of the Mission.
Of course, the agnostic is still all right. He's more than
ail right: he's what they're after. Where else do the con
verts come from ?
This is not a case of our being against Missions. We en-
joy them. Let's have more of them. Missions are fun for all
ooncerned. Let's have a University Bahai Mission. Or a Uni-
versity Quaker Mission!
Toronto students through last year's All-Varsity Aid
and this year's Student Help for Asian Relief and Education,
are trying to tie closer the bonds between North America
and Asia. What more logical then, than a University Hindu
©r Moslem Mission?
Toronto is the city where, when a visiting negro cel-
ebrity was refused a haircut by a reactionary barber, the
news hit the front pages. Probably the barber went out of
business. But Toronto also restricts, by "gentlemen's" agree-
ments, certain racial or religious groups from holding pro-
perty in certain areas.
Toronto is the one city in this province that has an LPP
Member of Parliament. It is rather proud of this achieve-
ment, as a point in its argument that it is not quite as staid
and stodgy as other interests might imply. But note that
LPP Members are limited to one or two.
Yes, Toronto is tolerant. It allows Jehovah's Witnesses
to hand out literature on street corners and. to the annoyance
©f many, to do some door-to-door preaching. It even has a
few bars and Sunday sports.
But is there possibly something hypocritical in this glori-
ous freedom from discrimination?
Perhaps the reason why Torontonians feel they can af-
ford to be tolerant is that they are sure of their cause-
Christianity and the Christian set of moraU-r-will win out in
the end anyway.
.Afl (ignostics run for your lives. The Christians
are back in (own. The amoral academic air is
alive with the Spirit, as the wind of the Uni-
versity Christian Mission blows from "nor'-eas"-
wes' ", in and out of the halls of doubt.
Few faculties have escaped. Only the cloisters
of St. MiUe's have missed the Lord High Execu-
tioner's "little Ust". The blitzbj-ieg of authority and
of authorities has overlooked its sacred walls. One
does not cany coals to Newcastle. They already
have their own.
It's fche skin of the skeptic these Chi-istians are
out to get. The Canon is shooting for the man "who
knows not and knows that he knows not." "He is
simple — teach him."
But whence comes the authority to teach? It
seems that most of the Christians are talking
about some one they call God. I saw the question:
"Would God create a world like this?" Who may
I ask, is God? God is a given quantity in the
question. Like the lawyer asking the witness. "Have
you stopped beating you wife?" Sceptics, beware
of the loaded question, or you'll lose your life. Life
breeds doubt, and you may lose that too.
These Christians and their Canon are not
on boai'd the good ship Varsity for a winter cinise.
Christians come to convert. "We're out for con-
version," says Mr. Milford, "beginning with our-
selves." I suppose he's come to turn us upside
down and inside out, beginning with himseJf. The
Christians are here to tear your disbelief to pieces,
to hand you strangers and sojourners over to their
friend and pilot. Jesus Christ. They .say he is
invisible, and at the helm of history. No one has
seen him there. Yet the Christians would have us
"come and see," some one who can't be seen.
I guess there's no room at the inn fOr us
Thomases who doubt. At least our good friends at
St. Mikes iiave Pope Pius at Rome, and the
Bahai's have tlie whole World, someone and
something to touch and see. But the <n,
are preaching to a God "whom no man hat ^
at any time". Are the blind lead(ng the Jl^

How To Find
Lusty Sections
In Novels
(Scalped from The Varsity,
Jan. 18, 1949)
wlany novels printed nowadays,
and we are speaking chiefly of
the pocket variety, are nine-
tenths trash. The only really in-
teresting parts to ttie casual
reader are ihe cover and the odd
lusty section.
It" is a generally accepted fact
that tliese lusty sections "sell"
the novel. The more there are
the better the no^el sells. Un-
fortunately, most writers, wish-
ing to avoid the label of filth-
slingers or semi -disgusting, in-
clude only two or three such
worthwhile sections in each
novel tliey create. This gives rise
to the problem of wasted time
among readers who are looking
only for a bit of lascivious read-
ing. Here are a few time savers:
1. Scan for naughty words —
After a bit of experience you will
find that this comes more easily.
Be on the lookout, too. for valu-
aible clue words . . . "ruby lips".
or "eye-s intense with passion",
etc.
2. Watch the chapter titles — A
harmless-looking title like "Mrs.
Jones throws a tea-party" may
prove very interesting wtille one
headed "A walk in the wood.s"
would tell of an utterly boring
and fniit.less search for some
species of wild bird.
3. Note especially the final few
lines of each chapter — It is only
natural that the best is kept till
Wie end, and one can save im-
mense Bn\ounts of time by skip-
ping the first % of each chapter.
Pingboom.
..lent of interest in radio for
Varsi ty. As some of the w ri ters
have expressed, the difficulties
are by no means as considerable
as one might gather.
A station would probably
cost, if the transmitter were
built on the campus, no more
than two thousand dollars. This
figure is based on a revised
estimate of the station costs at
Queen's.
Once built it could act as a
further training ground for the
Engineers who would be so neces-
sary in oDerating said station.
The greatest difficulty at pres-
ent seems to be lack of facilities.
In short, there appears to be no
space available on the campus,
build the station. Last year the
greatest of efforts were directed
into that field, but nothing con-
crete has developed. Now with
the decision to further delay the
building of the Student Union,
the hope of finding a location
for the transmitter on the
campus has been further <'.-
med. "
If. and when, this probkm
resolved, then the establiite
of a station here will becoff'
matter of procedure. Until u
time the best we can do i'
continue in maintaining ■
interest present, and to eiKOUi'
the development of mt>re of
same. In this regard, a- gif-
interest by the Eiiginff^
Faculty would brine t'l'^
closer.

Four scautUy-cIad damsels dis-

yesterday. Stolidly eating lunch in
the great hall, students were sud-
denly subjected to the sight of
fonr girls in various stages of un-
dress, pranoing aronnd on the top
of a table.
Shouts •/ "What's all this?" "By
Jove!" and "Bear, hear!" were
echoed, and clam chowder went
wasting as staff and stadents alike
clamoured around.
The chorus girls sang about th*
forthcoming All- Varsity Revue
and before the onlookers could re-
cover their composure, the masked
chorines vanished into the HaU.
AVR publicity director Jim
Bacque said that the masked
quartet would appear later on fai

For Chariot Race
'Apathy Charged'
There may not be a Chariot Race
this year after all, if student
apathy continues at Its presMit
rate, disclosed Frank Yamada,
Publicity Director of the Engineer-
ing Society, yesterday.
Altiiough entries were oal^
for last Thursday and yesterday
was the deadline, no entries have
yet been received. Yamada sug-
gested that a publicity stunt might
occur on Thursday, to replace the
Chariot Race, and suggests that
students keep one eye on the front
campus and the other oo the ^
at 1:00 p.m.
Traditionally a pubUclty gag for
the Skule At-Home, the Chariot
Race has become an annual insti-
tution on the campus. Last year's
race was decried as a farce, but
promise was made by the En-
gineering Society of. At least, »
fair start this ye«m. '

we expect that the drive for $11,-

Asia wtU be' ahead by almost S400
towajxi its objective." announced
SHARE skating party committee
chairman Scott Symons last night.
"It was only In getting the best
possible weather and backing from
the students that the party lias
proved far more successful than
we ever anticipated", he stated.
Despite serious last minute
changes in the program to con-
form with the requirements of
Varsity Stadium, the competitions
as replanned were carried out
with great success, said Cric Ket-
chum also on the SHARE skating
party committee.
One competition of balloons, 200
of them, which was to be found
between the arts facultues and
the professional faculties could
not be held when the stadium of-
ficials ruled that there would be
too great a danger to the several
hundred non-Varsity patrons that
would be there. Races were ruled
out on the same basis
In the re-arranged program. It
was decided to give the balloons
out. one to each couple, turn the
lights out. and let everyone try to
break the other balloons. The
prizes of ten dollars worth of
jewellery and the records to the
New York hit "High Button Shoes"
were awarded to the last two with
their balloons. Other prizes were
awarded on an elimination skat-
ing routine and spot numbers.
Brazil Pays Trip
For Two Canucks
SAC president Syd Wax will be in Rio D« Janeiro within
a tew days to attend a pan-Aerican conference for student
unions, It was announced last night. Wax says he will leav.
for New York tonight where he will meet Jean De Margerie.
president of the National Federation of University Students^
They will then fly to Rio, via Port of Spain, Trinidad, on
the Pan American Airlines flagship El Presidente.
Wax says that the trip came as a surprise as previously
it had been thought possible only to send De Margerie as a
Canadian representative. However Wax received a phone call
trom De Margerie in Quebec City Monday night and De
Margie said that he had received cables from Rio asking
that two Canadian delegates be sent. The Brazilian national
Union of Studenta, Wax says, have offered to pay all costs
tor the trips except for some minor travelling expenses.

To Travel
Half-Fare
Ottawa (Special)— A travel ser-
vice has been established by the
National Federation pS Canadian
University Students.
Eight charter fUgbts from Mont-
real to Eiurape have been arraogad
at less than half the regular far«
with 63 seats for Canadians, aa
well as slilpping accotxonodation on
two Dutch ships also at reduced
rates, as a joint NFCD1&-U6N6A-
Dutch project.
This service was established fol-
lowing a meeting in Ottawa this
week bebween Yves Pilon, perman-
ent secretary- treasurer of NFCU6
and representatives of the British
National Onion of Students and
the United States National student
Association travel departments, I
Las^ year charter flights were
operated successfully by the BNU5.
but this is the first year that Cana-
dian students have been allotted
accommoda tloQ.
Wax was surprised to receive tbo
caU as he thought De Margeris
was already In Rio for the confer-
ence which had been scheduled
from January 15 to the 22Qd Whea
he left De Margerie at the Edin-
burgh Conference, which Wa.x at-
tended as NUCUS International
Affairs Chairman earlier this
month, tt had been understood that
De Margerie was going to Paris
and from there his transportation
to Brazil was being paid by tha
Brazilians. Wax turned down tha
trip as he did not feel he could
spare the time from his studies la
medicine.
De Margerie told Wax on Mon-
day night that the conference bad
been postponed until the 25th and
that the Brazilians had specifical-
ly mvlted Wax and himself.
Wax has made arrangements to
take Ume off from his studies.
The trip has been approved by
the National Office of NPCOS in
Ottawa. Wax said yesterday, but
because of the sudden nature of
the trip the National Executive
has not been consulted.
However International Affair*
chairman Wax said that It is hU
job to go. anyway.
Wax explained that at the IStli
annual NPCUS conference in Lon-
don last fall the International At-
fairs Commission had been in-
structed to continue the program
of trying to develop a Pan-Amer-
ican Union, Wax said that this

greats deal of hard work.
First Issue of The Varsity ap-
peared on Oct. 7, 1880. Since the
"Weekly Review of Education,
University Politics and Events-
of that time appeared, the pa-
per has taken on a very dif-
'"Jht style. At the time the
70th Anniversary issue was
printed last spring, there had
Seen approidmately 12 mlllian
words ia The Varsity, or four
hundred mUes of regular body
type.
Originally a Joint Stock Com-
pany with paid subscrlpUon,
The Varsity was forced to cease
publishing back in 1889 from lack
of funds. But better days came,
and since that time the paper
has never failed to appear
somehow or another.
Once when the paper was
printed at the University of To-
ronto Press, conveniently near
the News and Editorial OtOces.
it was discovered just before
deadline that the presses had
been broken. This was done by
a group of dlsgruntleds who
couldnt agree with Varsity pol
icy.
The next day. the editorial
column appeared as a blank
white space, with a few words
bunched together in the mid-
dle, explaining what had hap-
pened. Aside ffom this In-
stance, a blank is a very rare
thing In the pages of The Var-
sity.
In 1929, Editor Pat Ryan re-
fused to be balked by criticism,
and continued publishing fiery,
controversial, aggressive edi-
torials, rinaUy .he was fired,
and his staff resigned. A new
editor and masthead were ap-
pointed, and The" Varsity, chas-
tened, carried on.
A list of ex-Varsity staffers
would include a number of fam.
ous names. Stephen Leacock,
eminent late Canadian humor-
ist and teacher, once was a V»i^
sity reporter. The late William
Eyon Mackenzie King "got hia
start" on The Varsity.
Formerly The Varsity had
women's editor and featured a
women's page. Recently this
procedure has been abandoned,
on the grounds that the woman's
point of view does not necessar-
ily differ ^rom the man's. But
a glance down The Varsity mast-
head will show you that the wom-
en still have their word — and
often the final one — in what The
Varsity says.

Radio Roundtable Decides
Strikes Aren't Misused
I Unions have not misused tlw
weapon of strike according to the
members of the Students' Admin-
Jstrative Council-sponsored Bound
Table program, "OI Minds and
Men", last night. Only very raj-e
examples of misuse could be cited
by the discussers who carried tbe
argument from union activities In
general to the current TTC strike.
"People working f»r puhUe »iU-
Ities are not second class citizens",
■aid Harry Waisglass, special lec-
turer, in reply to a suggestion by
Buth Snider, I P and OT, that all
public utility unions should have
eompulsory arbitration. T. J. Ram-
akrishnan, Grad studies felt that
if governmental arbitration was In-
Toked, it would be necessary for
the arbitrator to consider all soci-
ety, and not Just the principal par-
ties involved.
'Management, in general, wool
meet the workers fairly." claimed
J. A. Lougheed. Ill Emmanuel,
"and tends to needle Uiem by mis-
representation of the facts." He
cited the instance of the last rail-
road strike when management ad-
vertiBed the pay to running crews
only, and left out figures on the
poorly paid aection-hand*. Miss
Snider "ftld that tliis point had
some application in the TTC
strike, where management was ub-
ii^ the increase in lores as a lever
to defeat the strike. She felt that
the matter oS ma increase in lares
should not be oonMdered until the
strike was settled.
The program was the first of a
ten program series. Harry RAsky,
CKEY news editor, acted as mod-
erator.

For Historians
The History Department Is haT
ing a house-warming tonight and
otflclal opening o! their new Bald
win House.
Officers of department members
have been painted in pastel shades.
Fluorescent lights have been in-
stalled in most of the rooms.
Clothes-hooks adorn professor's
walls so that students' coats need
no longer drag on the floor dur-
ing a seminar as in the old build-
ing.
These changes may be seen by
students tomorrow night when
they may take tours of the new
buUding. The Modern History
Club is sponsoring the evenmg and
has provided a programme ol en-
tertainment. Students may throw
darts at their favorite historical
enemy watch skits performed by
students and staff, see movies, or
dance in the library.
Hal Brown, IV Vic, president
of the History Club, said that all
students on the campus are invito

As musical comedy goes, GUYS AND DOIiLB, now playing

noisy, sometimes self-satiric. Sold with as fabulous a cast of cliarj3
imaginable. The music and lyrics by Frank Loesser and the i^,^
Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows are exceptionaUy good— all of which c<,?s
tributes to a very enjoyable evening in the theatre.
The story is based on one of Damon Bunyon's old Broa<|»

Tomorrow Is Today
A falsified yarn on page 7 of
yesterday's Varsity stated that a
lecture by Professor L. C. Walms-
ley on "Archaeology and Early
Chinese History" would be given
at 4:30 p.m, "tomorrow" (i.e. to-
day).
To prevent any students going
to hear the lecture today and find-
ing the theatre empty or otherwise
unoccupied. The Varsity wishes to
correct that statement. "Tomor-
row" should have read "today".
The lecture therefore took place
yesterday.
Of 500 accidents reported by em
ployees of the Ontario Department
of Lands and Forests, 70 were
caused by axes. One man was bit-
ten by a'beaver.

Missioner Explains
Existence Of Evil
Lecturing on -How God Deals

He added that it does not make

self-contradictory it is a positive
fact, he continued.

Two approaches u> Ibe problem
Of evil are the Yogi approach and
tne Commissar approach. Canon
Milford explamed. "The first is
disillusioned from the start and
its adherents seek to escape fixmi
the world.
"The second is the approach of
the worldly optimist who trusts to
free enterprise and competition to
rid the world of evil. " he contin-
ued. These people, he said, are soon
forced to resort to methods other
than persuasion. We will, more-
over, not be satisfied with , the
planned world these people would
give us, he added.
Some people try to make God
look silly," Canon Milford contin-
ued. He cited two lines of attack:
first, if God made the world he did
not do a good job ibecause evil ex-
ists: second, if the world is a fallen
world, man's achievements are be-
littled. Canon Milford continued
that there is somethin-,j that tells
us there is a God. "We're made like
that." he said.

U of M Wins
Over Laval
The hlgh-nying Montreal Cara-
bine added to their intercoUeglate
leai'ue leadership -xtien they whip-
ped the Laval Blue and Gold 7-4
last Friday night. At present the
Montrealers shape up as the team
that the Blues will have to master
if they hope to hold on to ttielx
rank of league champions.
However, the task at hand for the
locals is their coming battle with
Mccm this Friday at Varsity
Arena. This will be the first home
game of the season for the defend-
ing champions.
The Redmen lost much of their
scoring punch when star forwards.
Gord Knutson and Bob Maiches-
sault decided to stick to studle^
They are reportedly a big team, ana
have a win over Laval to their cre-
dit.
(ietm His Chance
By MM, CBAWFORD
Nortown Tri-Bells say they are going to Oie Olympics
this year as the Canadian entry in the baslcetball touma-
Bient There is. of course, a small obstac e-the Vancouver
entry, which swamped the Tri-BeUs la^t year in the Do-
minion finals. There is also the question of eUgibib^-
Freddy Thomas played semi-pro baaketbaJl for a year in
Detroit, and Jack Gray and George Amott played for Toronto
(Argonauts, who are not amateur in any sense of the word.
Anyway, they're going to the Olympics.
His team having lost a practice match to the Blues last
week by two points, coach Alex Fisher arranged a return
game for last night. However, Freddy Thomas aggravated
a leg injury early in the game with the Orphuns Thursday
night, and Johnny Braithwaite got hurt, so last night s game
was cancelled.
Since Thomas did not play against the Blues last week
either, and since Sharpy Litvack (who also did not play last
Tunesday) would more than make up for the absence ol
Braithwaite, they would probably have been able to floor
just as good a team as they did last week. "Practice game
or not, tliey apparently don't want to mar their record with
another loss to the Blues.
In spite of the fact that Varsity and Tri-Bells are with-
aut much doubt the two best basketball teams in Toronto,
they do not have any games scheduled with one another.
Tri-Bells play the Orphuns in the City League, of course,
but the big team is supposed to be the Blues. It seems a little
ridiculous to see both teams going out of town or bringing
bi out-of-town teams for every game, and not playing each
other.
• • .% •
r Bud Natanson's decision to quit basketball has hit the
Plues in a soft spot. Both last year and this year they had
lilways built their system around him, feeding him the ball
whenever possible, and relying on him for rebounds. 'The
onus for that job now rests on Ray Monnot, a spindly 6'6 '
(175 pounds), with two chronically bad ankles. Monnot does
not possess the shot that Natanson has developed, but he
gets rebounds, probably fights harder for them than Natan-
son did. With McGill and Queen's to play this Friday and
Saturday, the Blues are in bad shape, as Lukenda's finger
and Binnington's ankle aren't expected to mend for a week
or so yet. The team goes to Western a week later. Neverthe-
less, Bob Masterson injects a note of confidence in this other-
wise disheartening picture — "We'll show up for the games,
anyway."
Bud Natanson, p 7- centre »k.
has led the Senior Blue basket! ■
team to points scored and in
game averages this year and i^'
year, has decided to quit basketb^S*
for the season. The death of h
uncle and the illness of his /ath **
who polntly operated the famiT"
ncss, has made It necessary t
Bud to take It over in his art
school hours. It is not entirei ^'
financial difficulty, rather a tt,M\l
of keeping the responsibility ^nj?
the family. ^
Natanson scored an average o
(points per game last year and
Ray Monnot, freshman basketball star from Elobicoke Collegiate, wfll
have the job of filling the gap left by Bud Natanson's departm-e from
the team. Ray was top scorer in the game with Tri-Bells last week,
vlth 17 poiuta.
Victoria Cagers Down UC
Rogers High Man With 19
Victoria College Seniors downed UC III 31-24 in a group
three game in Hart House yesterday. The Vicstere went
ahead 10-4 in the first period after a slow start and looked
good as they piled up a nine point lead before the end of the
second stanza.
B-Ball Girls
At Hamilton
r McGill should not present too much opposition since
the team is substantially the same as the one the Blues beat
last year in the first game by about 45 points. Basketball
seems to play a very definite second fiddle to hockey at
McGill. Their basketball publicity brochure is stuck on at
the end of the swim team release. The line-up looks like
Montreal YMHA's second team.
Queen's lost to the Blues by only one point in the first
pame here, and the big guns — Don Griffin, Harry Lampman,
Don Bahner— are back, along with freshman Walt Mellor^
McMaster beat Varsity twice last year, and beat McGi
In the season opened last week. 'Nuff said.
At Western, Johnny Metras thinks he has one of the
best teams ever. They lack height— Doug McNichol, 6'4" and
Wendell Wigle, 6'3" are the only tall men they have, and
Harry Wade, Bob Phibbs, and George Arnott have graduated
from last year's first line. That leaves only McNichol and
|lay Truant back from the first string. However, in addition
ko Wigle, they have Glen Pettinger, who played for Varsity
iiree vears ago, and a Windsor boy. Bill Pataky, who we
kear ranks in Big John's estimation as the best basketball

shots, and 111 foul shots for a 6i%
average. He had an average of 13^

Bud has not played in any of thj
games since New Year's, except ttii
practice game with Tri-Bells iag|
week. He has two more years at
Varsity, and will likely be able to
play after this year. However, u i,
very unlikely that he wiU rejoin
the team this season.
Tonight the Senior and Inter-
mediate Inter- collegiate girls' bas-
ketball teams are playing exhibi-
tion games against McMaster. In
past years these games have been
closely contested, but Varsity al-
ways managed to come out on top.
Coach. Micki Barnet, is having
a difficult time choosing the team.
In fact there will be fifteen girls
going to McMaster instead of the
regular twelve. Final eliminations
will be made at a later date. Until
that time tension among the girls
will be at an all-time high.
Returning payers from last year's
jhampionship team are Sally WEd-
lace and Joan Mooney on the for-
ward line, and Heather Chipman,
Marry MacDonald, Mary Lewis,
and Beth Wade on the guard line.
Basketball enthusiasts will remem-
ber that last year Sally brought
honour to Toronto by being top
scorer in the tntercoUegiate meet
held in London. Peg Walker, who
had to be replaced when she broke
her ankle last year is trying out
♦ in a top performance. He scored
most of the points when he eluded
the UC guards and drove into the
basket. Pete Gawinskl dropped in
two perfect set shots and was the
top man for the losers with five
points.
The game started off with a lot
of fouls and very poor shooting
and It wasn't until the final min-
utes of the game that both teams
started to show a definite scoring
punch. The winners showed a
decided edge In tAritorlal play
and were also far superior in get-
ting the reboimds.
Rruboff looked very good on the
defence for UC; he was ably as-
sisted by John Eaton who also
played a good defensive game. If
the Redmen had shown the same
offensive power that they showed
on the defensive they might have
downed the Senior Vic team.

Lecture
On Love
And Sex
Sexual relationship— the Inter-
pretation and Interchange of the
flesh and spirit of two people Is a
sacramental expression as well as
the culmination of sexual desire
and love. Dr. Ursula Neibuhr, As-
sociate Professor of ReUglo'n at
New York's Barnard College, said
yesterday. She was speaking on
Christianity and Sex as part of
the University Christian Mission In
Victoria College Chapel.
Marriage Is an achievement of
more than a natural union. In-
volving as it does, the exercise of
freedom, choice and responsibUity
Dr. Neibuhr went on to suggest
that the element of choice enter-
ed largely into natural selection of
two people.
Marriage can be fun as wen as
solemn. Dr. Neibuhr said, deplor-
ing the absence of any great Chris-
Han poem or drama about mar-
riage. This Is a great lack in cairis-
tian tradition, she said.
For example, however magnlfl-
Mnt Dante's Divine Comedy is
Beatrice was not Mrs. Dante she
said.
There Is a great need for more
Inter-relation of men £tnd women
she continued. The church fathers
would not be nearly so coy when a
woman wanders Into their midst.
If there were more women working
with them.

ignored.
' Yet, now, the proposed Soviet exchange has assumed a
belated importance in the eyes of the NFCUS executive.
It has become so momentous that the mail service, not
effectively used in the past, has been given up for the pres-
ent. Apparently, the executive members must meet and
talk and break bread together before reversing September's
decision — although a majority of university members have
already done so. And if the international conferences con-
tinue at the present rate, there will be little hope of a meet-
fag till mid-February.

Now, the elephantine gait of a governmental bureau-
cracy 18 one of the most enraging facets of our so-<^lled
I f-mocracy. From Ottawa, however, we have come to expect
i. uegree of frustration.
From a smaller, less monumental organization, such as
NFCUS, we can reasonably hope for a greater mobility. But
the red tape procrastinations of NFCUS makes governmental
delays seem to pallid pink by comparison.
! The NFCUS executive couM have avoided such inordin-
ate delays by using the excellent mail services of this coun-
try and by calling for a national referdendum — months ago.
[Tet they did not.
I And now from Edinburgh come magnificent and elab-
orate schemes for an international secretariat, student ex-
changes, material and technical assistance and so forth.
Unlike the proposed Russian visit, these ventures will need
money — vast piles of it.
|f How will the lumberimg machinery of the NFOUS
organization operate on these plans, when a simple three
week tour which has secured the approval of a majority of
aniversities falls into the oblivion of inaction? Will not they,
the golden plans and sterling principles of Edinburgh, "like
chimneysweepers, come to duat"7
r' After all, the much-discussed, widely-approved Russian
Tisit, with bursts of speed and good fortune, will arrive with
our annual examinations. If at all. At that rate, Edinburgh
will probably receive verbal arabesques from here to eternity.
teenth century where labour was indeed down-
trodden and misemble, is an age when not even
the most inveterate politician, who wishes to re-
main one, will even question the wi^es of or-
ganized labour. The situation is an obvious
development of an increasingly mechanized society,
'based as it is on the competition of men with
machines, and of men with men for the control
of those machines.
But in this anomaly lies the root of our immigra-
tion problem. The main influex of refugees of late,
and of immigrants as a whole, has been labouring
people, unskilled and fleeing a generally Iropov-
erished existence. This of course excludes British
Commonwealth immigrants who are given master-
race and white man's country treatment by the
immigration laws.
From the time of the great immigration boom
of the early twentieth century, these labourers
have been consumed by the prairies and by the
tnish and have quickly become "Canadians". But
as the government of Canada has become more
popularly based, as these interests have been
given political expression, the story has assumed
"ft different slant.
Agitation of organized laibour against increas-
ing immigration has developed on two scores. One
is of fear that immigrant labour would be cheap
and willing to work for lower wages than unionized
labour, and would therefore be hired by employers
anxious about their costs. On this score Vancouver
has been notoriuos for its bottle- throwing and
impleasantne^. directed originally against the im-
migration of Chinese and Japanese at the begin-
ning of the century, but later continued in less
violent forms against recently -immigrated prairie
farmers escaping the rigours of the prairie winter
for the banana-belt climate of British Cohrmibia.
The other is a more recent development precipi-
tated by the arrival of a new class of refugee
immigrant in the post-ld45 era, an immigrant
better-equipped in technicaj knwoledge and me-
chanical skills in man^ cases than his predeces-
sors. Against these "foreigners" the self-appointed
"Canadians" have raised a howl of anguish that
they were "trying to take over the country".
How does this apply today? First. Canadian
labour wages, bolstered by a series of productive
strikes and the vicious circle of rising costs, are
second only to those of the United States worker
and it is not suiprising to find a strong consoli-
dation behind the labour unions. The strike weapon
remains the most powerful stick to beat the head
of the industriat employer.
The issue is already a political one. Read the

Editor, The Varsity:
Back from Minburgh. Mr. Syd
Wax (lAC chairman) reports
that "Canada is taking an in-
creasingly important role in in-
ternational student activity . . .
illustrated ... at the recent Ed-
inburgh conference." (Varrfty
Jan. 15) We also learn from Mr.
Wax that he and our other NF-
CUS representative at Edin-
burgh. Jean de Margerle. sug-
gested the lines for, and offered
four resolutions which set in mo-
tion plans tor the new secretar-
iat of Western student unions.
It seems rather contradictory
that NPOUS representatives, like
Mr. Wax. show no hesitation
when abroad to act in the name
of 45,000 Canadian students on
matters about which the student
body have not expressed them-
selves officially, while at home
these saoie people hesitated and
seemed reluctant (London NF-
CUS conference in September)
to act on a relatively simple
question, the Russian student
visit, without first having some
assurance that Canadian stu-
dents would support them.
Now tliat this support for the
principle of a Russian student
visit has been clearly expressed,
I think the time has come for
NFCUS. and the lAC in par-
ticular, to demonstrate to GaoA'
dian students and to the world,
their sincerity in seeking to find
common ground for co-operation
with students in Eastern Europe
and Asia, through the lUS. For
only when this takes plaoe U
there hope for a peaceful settle-
ment of East-West problems on
the student level. I believe tiie
test of NPCUS's sincerity in this
regard comes down to this. It
they really intend to seek for
improved relations with the IDB
they will push, now that they
have the assurance of student
support behind them, the Rus-
sian student visit, with tiie same
efficiency and despatch as they
have shown themselves capable
of at Edinburgh. Such an action
by NFCUS, more than any other,
would symbolize to the students
of Eastern Europe and the whole
world the friendly and non-ag-
gressive sentiments of Canadian
students towards them, at least
as effectively as the Princess'
tour symbolized the friendly
ties existing between Canada
and England. But If on the other
hand NFCUS does not intend to
improve relations with the lUS
they will not encourage the Rus-
sian student visit to actually
take place, even though they may
talk favorably about the principle
of the visit, r believe that Cana-
dian students who wish to see
Canada plaf a genuinely im-
portant role in
dent affairs In the crltio' J
to come must apply this I

They Just Can't Forget Ajax
Skule Celebrates Saga Today
AJajc, like Texas, was a place of vast distances. To travel from
lecture to lecture the Jaxmen either walked through the long corridors
ttiat were built between Uie buildings or else used one at the "Green
Dragons", usually caMed a horse van. The "Dragons" were pacfced so
tight that it totdc two men and a boy to close the doors. Womem rode

ABSTRACT FILMS AT HART HOUSE TODAY
Another in the regular showings
ol films in the East Common Room
of Hart House will take place to-
day at noon. There will be two
performances, one at 12:30 p.m.,
the other at 1:30.
This week's films are sponsored
by the Art Committee, and will
deal with the elements of abstract
art. The first, entitled "Elements
of Design: Composition" will deal
with the fundamental concepts
underlying abstract painting.
The second film, entitled "Fea.
Point, Percussion", is another of
the experimental films prepared
by the Ottawa producer, Norman
McClaren. It applies the prin-
ciples explained in the first film
in patterns painted directly onto
the film. McClaren has also ex-
perimented with painting sound-
track on film.
Next week's film will be "New-
foundland Scene", a new docu-
mentary of the tenth province.
"Whereas It Is held by the En-
gineers that Ajax, tho' a rough
do, was a good thing;
"And whereas even those who
would, find it impossible to forget
the joint;
"Therefore be it resolved that
the unforgettable shall not be for-
gotten."
With these stirring words, the
ASSES (Ajax Survivors Student
and Engineers 'Sociation) an-
nounced the inauguration of Ajax
Commemoration Week in Febru-
ary of J950, a week of contests in
"chawin' tobacco spittin' "roll-
in' yer own" and "stoggey smok-
in' ". Skulemen fere forbidden to
shave for the entire week, and on
the final climactic day, featuring
the chariot race, were to wear
high-cut boots, ancient parkas,
battledress. plaid shirts and dun-
garees.
What was Ajax, that 3.000 En-
gineers devoted an entire week
to the establishment of its mem-
ory?
The answer may partly be found
in the calendar for the Faculty of
Applied Science and Engineering.
An historical sketch states that in
1945, the University of Toronto
leased from the Crown a shell-fill-
ing plant at Ajax, 25 miles east of
Toronto. The location was ob-
tained in anticipation of a heavy
increased registration with the re-
turn of the veterans. As Skule
expected the greatest increase, it
was decided that the first and
second years of Engineering would
be given at Ajax.
Lectures for first year students
began in January of 1946, and for
second year in the following Sep-
tember, giving a total enrolment
of 2.300 students.
The calendar goes on to describe
Ajax as a "self-contained Univer-
sity Community" of 446 acres and
111 buildings, and further, that
"the University operated such ser-
vices as central heating, road
maintenance, water supply, sew-
age disposal . . The calendar
Hall of Fame
Ajax was originally a munitions pl'anc, and the buildings were
placed far enough apart so that If one blew up it would not detonate
the remainder. T^iis meant that long corridors had to be built over
hill and dale to connect the buildings. On Saturdays some of the
engineers rode blk^ through these corridors whMe others were known
to roller skate up and down the, hills at "line three".
does not mention the house parties.
Spruce Villa, Big Red (a dog who
battled with the students for their
daily bread) , three-day bridge
tournaments, and other such diver-
sions which presented themselves
to the Ajax student.
Finally, the calendar explains, in
1949 the Wallberg Memorial and
new Mechanical Buildings were
completed, and with the decrease
in registration in the Faculty, these
increased facilities made the con-
tinued operation of Ajax unneces-
sary.
Ajax packed up three years ago.
The freshmen who began Engineer-
ing during its last year of opera-
tion were the class of 5T2, this
year's graduating class.
The fear has been expressed
by various members of this clasj
that as they leave the university
their "way of life and the influe-
ence of Ajax will disappear and
be forgotten," unless steps are
taken to instill the spirit of Ajax
in "those who are left behind."
Understanding this danger, the

sented to the Department of Mech.
anical Engineering a mural de-
picting the more interesting fea-
tures of life at Ajax.
Further, the- Engineering Society
has set aside Jan. 24 as Ajax
Commemoration Day, a day in
which the fabled giants of Ajax
will attempt to show their fellow
Skulemen and the rest of the cam-
pus how important the traditiom
of Ajax are to the University.

fiarts. Three of their members al-
so starred in other groups so the
legality of their entry was doubt-
ful.
The Vic band was di'essed in the
stolen Skule uniforms and a few
basketball jerseys. They played
the engineering song - in funeral
march time and succeeded in mak-
iDg a thorough mess of it. The
Vic3ters also brought along two
girls who danced a Charleston to
their first number. Vic insured
first place by bringing along
cheques totalling $300 and another
fifteen dollars in bills. From the
crowd all they received were pap-
er darts, bags, and uneaten lunch-
es.
To determine the order of the
entries the MC picked several
pretty girls from the onlookers.
All the girls attracted whistles
from admiring engineers in the
upper balcony. The MC tried to
crack off-color jokes at various
times but these were drowned out
by shouts from the boisterous
crowd.

er to preserve an uneasy peace. He
remarked that militant Commu-
nism could be gauged by the in-
crease in people under Communist
rule since 1945— from one-twelfth
of the total population then to one-
third now.
He oDtlined the decision to form
the North Atlantic Treaty Organi-
zation, "after the Soviet govern-
ment had previously signed no less
than seventeen pacts with its satel-
lites." In this connection, Mr. Gray-
don commended "the intestinal
fortitude" of the Turks who, despite
a "menacing border", offered to
Join NATO "to fight to keep the
peace".
More than 360,000 photographic
negatives have been taken in con-
nection with the forest resources
inventory carried out by the On-
tario Department of Lands and
Forests.
He added that altho«£h the
"treaaunr is in earthen vessels" it
is here for those who have the
eyes to see it. Our ideas may be
distorted by movies and cheap
literature but people should even-
tually realize that those within the
Church have something others
lack.
The goodness of the Christian is
an acquired taste into which men
must be initiated, he continued, in
nuch the same manner as one
develops a taste for good music. He
must recognize that he will be a
czt.er man in Christ and become
initiated through an act of sub-
misiion to Him.

gram today.
The play, "Rachel and Akiba
is the story of the teacher, philo-
sopher and scholar. Rabbi Aklba
and his wife. A shepherd to
Rachel's father. Aklba fell in love
with the young girl, and, his suit

which to find Divinity" said Canon
Milfoil. But he explahied that al-
though Christians do not agree
more often, when they disagree
they are still in fellowship. And
although the Devid may have tem-
porary ti-iianph they usually hold
together through racial and politi-
cal differences and even war.
He pointed out that there is no
one Christian type of saintliness
And he cited the courage of a
paralyzed missionary who truly
lived the words of St. Paul, "My
strength is made perfect in weak-
ness".
In discussing the question "Ara
marriages made in Heaven?" Can-
on Milford explained that it did
not mean that they were neces-
sarily prearranged but that mar-
riages are made in Heaven by God
in the process of living and added
that repeat-forgiveness kept Lhem
from being simply "consecrated
d<^-fights".
Canon Milford stressed that the
daily experiences of living ara
similar to those of the saints, "i
have been guided." he said, but
added that this could be explain-
ed psych ;'.ogically. Tliat his pray-
ers had been answered and that
he has been forgiven cannot be
proved logicaUy but he has a clue
to so much more that is promised
to him and to all tho^e who be-
lieve that he realizes that the pro-
cess of redemption Is a daUy ex-
perience.
In closing Canon Milford said
that the Church will always be up-
held by tlie group of people who
accept sorrow without wailing, joy
without exhortation and so do not
take the world too seriou.^ly be-
cause they know that everything
in it must die.

ART REVIEW
Artist Walsh Sees City
In Varied Perspectives
SCIENCE NOTES
555
Not many Canadians paint their
cities. Not many people paint
niglit scenes. Jolin Walsh does. Vig-
orously and quite well.
Tbe paintings sliown can be
roughly divided Into three groups
according to the themes: the City
from Within, the City from Above,
Buburbs.
The scenes representing the city
from the point of view of a pedes-
trian show it as moody, man-
made and man-inhabited surround-
ings. The streetscapes range from
the friendly to the forbidding.
"Briglet City" and "The Little
Cafe" show the spectacular and
the more human friendliness.
"Quebec Street" and "Niglit In
the City" on the other hand, show
the overpowering might the man-
made surroundings can have.
In the group of paintings where
the city is seen from above, it is
possible to feel a certain loneli-
ness — the loneliness of the
men who has been left
out from all that is happening be-
low him. The night scenes in this
group are interesting mainly by
showing what could be called the
negative of a city. The roofs, or-
dinarily well-lit. are dark. Tbe
streets, dark in the daylight, are
flooded in light. This light creeps
along the walls, but never seems to
reach the top. This is best illus-
trated by "Quebec from the Ter-

race" and "Quebec Roofs.**
"Oil Refinery at Night" and
"Lachine" are representative of
the surburban series.
John S. Walsh loves the city in
both Its glory and its ugliness, in
both its friendliness and its for-
bidding coldness. He likes the bold-
ness of the city's geometry, which
comes out best when unnecessary
details are covered by the kind
darkness. He knows his city and
paints for those who know it also.
His interest lies mainly in the
moods the city can produce, or the
moods whicb produce the city.
It does not seem to be the search
for the romantic which makes
John Walsh paint scenes in the
darkness or in the rain. He is not
a straight- forward romaticist. He
is only showing nis subject under
those conditions which bring out
its qualities in their full richness.
There is a great variety of tech-
niques even within each medium:
oil, water, color, chalk. Both the
obvious and the subtle changes in
the techniques enable him to cap-
ture the exact mood of each scene.
In" the "Lachine" he uses heavy
textures to accentuate the life in
the leaves of the trees. In "Que-
bec Roofs" he uses smooth sur-
faces and indefinite lines to ac-
centuate the quietness of the city
at night.
All the paintings are vigorous
and honest. Although many in-
fluences can be traced, the work
shown is integral and quite per-
sonal.
The show will remain in the Gal-
lery until Febi-uary 3. It will be
reviewed by Mr. Paul Duval on
Wednesday. January 30, at 5 p.m.

In the present age of science with a capital S, it is easy j^j,

is that those who teke science unto their t)osom and oppose it to jt|

Besides, in present day living it is the untjoith tha* makes you irw
and many souls crave freedom at any cost. "
The trouble lies not so much in the dangers of' exposing a tendej
young mind to the devastating impact of university high thinking
It stems far deeper than that, for youth apparently approaches tha
portals Oit learning with their cerebral functioning tied up in two neat
Uttle bimdles. One contains their daily methods of Uving and anpiiicaj
observations; the other, with' perhaps a prettier bow fastened about
it, contains their Sunday concepts of religion and morals
Evidently they did not early enough realize that carrying arounij
a bifid personality is not considered psycholc^ically healthy. What «
shame they did not try to inci-ecise their moral education at ihe
same pace as their secular one. When one phase of their thought is at
University level and the other is somewhere honorably past kindejgar-
ten, it is inevitable that they become the furtive wooly sheep coyl?
elusive behind one of Hugh Niblock's boulders.
And there they hide, rather proud of their misplaced tiUe «(
agaiostic. K they were truly agnostic, they would be honestly and
methodically trying to find out. "hoping it mig<ht be so." Our great
maturity can be siwnmed up in the deathless words of a pretty coe4
overheai>3 the other day telling a friend "I'm just worn out! I thought
so much last weekend."
It has now become fashionable to believe in Santa Claus, but not
in God.
Although snch subjects are outside my field, I expect that the
plan of the present campus Mission, together with the Newman and
Hillel organizations for Catholic and Jewish students is to enable sheep
of all hues to improve their religious understanding. It may then fill
a respectable niche in their philosophy.
So now the Science Editor has preached a wee sermon.

In Its heyday, the guitar was

customary to play on the guitar
not only chordal accompaniments,
but real melodies, and often sev-

It is a pity that the Jupiter Thea-
tre picked the week of Decern
ber 17th for their first production
GALILEO, not only because exams
and Christmas jobs took prece-
dence on the campus and kept
many students away, but because
the week of December 17th was
filled with little more than snow,
ti-affic jams and crowded street^
cars. Consequently when the time
came to balance the books there
were many long but determined
faces in the "Jupiter" manage-
ment.
As for GALILEO the play, it was
undoubtedly a ^oor choice to open
career with in Toronto, The
Jupiter Theatre seems to have felt
that since it had the blessing of
such a distinguished actor as
I Charles Laughton, who translated
and fii'st acted it, and such a dis-
tinguished critic as Eric Bentley,
the play would 'ipso facto' attract
all the intelligentsia of the city,
who are, after all, the people for
whom the Jupiter Theatre was
formed. But the people, though
perhaps interested in GALITEO
and curious to see the original and
unique method of dramaturgy em-
ployed by the play's German au-
thor Bertolt Brecht, expected 'the
play to have some little dramatic
value. There was no attempt at
characterization on the play-
wright's party: he merely told the
old story over again with a great
deal of repetition and made the
humanizing of the people the ac-
tors' responsibility.
Enough of them knew how to
accept this responsibility and did,
but too often they either didn't
know or didn't care to make their
characters live. The most out-
standing performance was given
by Colin Barberini (later Pope Ur-
ban VHIl, Barberini was a clever
scientist trying to uphold scien-
tific truth yet at the same time
the leader of a Catholic world
*#hich he felt was not ready for
scientific truth, and his prayer
for guidance was the high point
of the production.
John Drainie who played Gali-
leo did a fine job of acting. He
was seldom off stage and had to
be the bulwark and strength of the
whole play against the impossible
odds of incompetent, careless and
indecisive acting. He grew from
robust middle-age to an unbane
and very alert old man in a be-
hvaWe way. and generally tried
to inspire some life into the others.
Noteworthy hi smaller parts
were Donald Glen, who changed
characters as easily as he changed
noses, (as a philosopher we was
excellent) and Lorne Greene, who
played the Inquisitor, Cardinal
Bellarmini.
Most of the audience was amaz-
ed at the manner in which direc-
tor Herbert Whitlaker made use
of the tiny Museum Theatre Stage ,
Fourteen scenes were played, with .
two intermissions, yet not once,
during the play was there a hold- ,
Sp 0 change scenery, 'The who e
^ng moved easily and quickly
sSd only when there were morel
than SIX or seven people In the
back part of the stage did the
smallness of the stage become ob-
vious. It shows what imagination
can do. Even bigger and better
things are promised when Jupiter
produces SOCRATES in Febru-
ary.
Before that they are presenting
Dalton Trumbo's BIGGEST THIEP
IN TOWN. I sincerely hope they
recoup some of their losses with
this farce, which I think will ap-
peal much more to the public than
such a dry and poorly written
piece as GALILEO. I hope too
that in this next play the manage-
ment inspires in the cast some
feelmg of making a success of
their work. It was aU too obvious
last month that the actors dislik-
ed GALIELEO as much as the
audience — in fact more.

many 17th and 18th century com-
posers, including Bach, wrote tor

To increase Ihe possIbiUties for
variety stUI further, Segovia has
written transcriptions of harpsi-
chord and piano pieces for the
guitar. It surprised me to learn
that the range of the instrument
extends almost two octaves below
middle c, which explains the re-
markaWe richness of these tran-
scriptions,
M»nr people will apgoe that th«
guitar can do little that a harpsi-
chord or piano cannot do better
and more easily. Certainly nobody
but a virtuoso can play even simple
music on it, let alone intricate
counterpohit such as Segovia
plays.

Of all the rules, regulations, and wastes >>* "| '1^^
rule books of these last named associations, the
nmit is surely the most useless. Every Friday during the
oo lall season eight coaches, four in tl>«I"t-f'^f
four in the Big Four, have to decide which of the players
^hev wouM lfke^o use will have to sit the game out. Every
Saturday half a dozen or so good players on each tea^^a t r
slogging through a week of practices with the rest, have to
watch from the stands.
Varsity generally carries about 30 men on the first
team and about the'same number on the Junior Varsity
^o^ or less a fluctuating number of hospital cases. No
Te^r^ can afford to carry any less, otherwise a string of
injuries like the one Varsity ran rato a y'^^'' ."go .'^^f '
n which nearly the whole first string was rendered hois de
ioJbat within about two weeks, would sweep the bench as
clean as Mother Hubbard's proverbial cupboard Not many
more ?ould be carried because of limited practice facilities
and finances.
If this extra half-dozen are good enough to make the
team, and have to be carried, what possible reason could
there be that they should not play?
Judging by Argo President Bob Moran's statement re-
garding iSol.ArgoLre apparently not confident that they
will be able to get the limit raised, or changed to a team
Mm t (rather thin a dressing limit). Jhe Scu"ers or any^
way the coach, Frank Clair, have made it clear that they
want the change made.
The inherent trouble with rule-making in sports is that
it is invariably done by men who have not been engaged in
the spor? for anywhere from 20 to 50 years, and who seem
to thrnk thai it is their duty to oblige athletes currently
active to play the game as it was played in their da>.
A collection of ballots from the players on each ^'^"•oj
football team could be held at the end of each season to find

Gaunt Takes
Squash Final
Three Straight
Rick Gaunt, III Tiinity. won the
University squash tournament at
noon yesterday, defeating Tom
Dancy, IV Victoria. 3-0. The
match was hard played throughout,
but Gaunt's experience showed in
the tough spots, as he took the
series in three straight.
Gaunt was down 14-10 in the first
thilt, but Dancy made several er-
rors under pressure, and lost the
game 17-14. In the second Dancy
held on. keeping even with op-
ponent until the score was 9-9.
but then Gaunt pulled away and
won 15-10. The third game was
more one-sided, with Gaunt win-
ning 15-8.
This tournament showed Gaunt
to be one of the top Intercollegiate
players, as he won it without los-
ing one contest. In last week's
TCS invitation tourney, he play-
ed Henry Foster, present US Inter-
coll champion, and lost a close
3-1 decision.
Hart House players will be en-
tered in the Ontario Squash
Racquets Tournament being play-
ed this weekend at the Carlton
Club. Gaunt and Cameron will
play in the singles, while Gil Top-
pin. Ed Roth. Dancy. Barry. Bar-
ry DeVeber and John Walters will
be entered in the team tourney.
.the Varsity team taking an early
lead and holding it throughout
the tilt. The first quarter saw the
gals in blue swish the net for ten
points. Ttieir checking was solid
and the McMaster squad couldn't
penetrate into foreign terrltoi^
long enough to sink the elusive
sphere.
McMaster opened up in the sec-
ond stanza and. led by Barb Ross,
they hurled the ball home for
eight counts. The U. of T. team
copped one basket to end the quar-
ter with a 12 to 8 lead.
In the third frame both t^ams
played fast and loose ball. Varsity
added 7 points to their tally while
the Hamilton Hoopsters chalked
up 3.
The final chapter was a re-take
of the third, with Varsity sink-
ing 7 points to McMasters' 3.
Donna Howson was high scorer
for the Blues, while Ira Karila
turned in a well-rounded perform-
ance lor U. of T. McMaster's Barb
Ross starred throughout the game,
collecting 11 of Hamilton's 15
points, with her long shots.
The Senior game was fast and
tight with both teams concen-
trating on their checking. The
Varsity gals flashed to the front
in the first quarter, sinking 13
points, while McMaster banged the
board for 5. The Bluebells kept
the upper hand in the second and
third chapters with the

Flautist,
Soprano
At Hillel
The concert held at HUlel House
last Tuesday evening was a thor-
oughly unorthodox one. For one
thing, it included a solo flautist,
Julius Constant, an event rare
enough nowadays to call for spe-
cial comment. Also, the nature of
the progra,m was rather unusual.
Esther Ghan, the well - known
soprano, was the chief performer.
She sang two rather nondescript
groups with a preponderance of
full-bodied, not to say sentimental
music, and a group of Hebrew
songs. Julius Constant ably per-
formed three 16th century works
(including the fantastically diffi-
cult first movement of Mozart's D
major Piute Concerto) and two
stylized arrangements of American
folk-songs.
My only acquaintance with He-
brew music had been the rather
THE VARSITY
forbidding works of Bloch. Conse-
quently, Miss Ghan-s group of
sonss came as a startUng revela-
tion to me. I was struck forcibly bv
their resemblance to the songs of
southern Spain. Textbooks talk of
oriental influence on Spanish mu-
sic, and one can well believe them
Tlie intervals, the rhythms, the
very turns of melody of these east-
em songs were, to my ears, Anda-
lusian.
Page Seven
Miss Ghan was at her best in
these songs. They provided her
v/ith some opportunity to display
tier technique, which is well worth
displaying, and also of exercising
her musical originality more than
in such trite music as the "Hymn
to the Sun" or "Musetta's Waltz"
(which is completely meaningless
out of its context in 'Xa Boheme").
Ruth Zysman and Naomi Socol
were the accompanists. It is rather

Pagan Sprites
Once again, the Great Chariot Race is with us. Th»
elassical wheels of mythology will roll around the front
campus today, once more, for the benefit of those who missed
the Graeco-Roman sport.
Actually, the chariot has had a long and honourable
history, not just as a sport, but in the noble battles of the
ancients. As far as we can gather, it was in bronze chariots
that the Assyrians descended upon the Hebrews.
Not until the Egyptians and Persians long passed from
the scene, did chariot racing degenerate into a sport. That
angle was simply devised by the super-civilized Greeks and
Romans.
It is difficult to say precisely where the matter stands
at the University of Toronto. Is chariot racing sport or
battle?
Now, Doug Sherk, President of the Engineering Society,
has stated that "this year the hell-i-aising will be organized".
The term "organization" inevitably implies a degree of civi-
lization. Yet, there is an inescapably barbarous quality about
the phrase "hell-raising".
This being an age of compromise, we can only assume
that today's race lies betwixt and between the two extremes.
4 sport that is dangerous but fun.
Of course, things have changed since the good old pagan
days. No longer are the chariots a blazing bronze, their
drivers armoured and helmeted. Today, the earnest chariot
racer must resort to cement buggies and street cleaning
vehicles, with little more adornment than a bloop — or a frail
unsubstantial tweeper.

However, it is the spirit of the race that counts,

The
The conflict between the Christian Mission arid the
Chariot Race is rather awkward. The midday burst of pagan-
ism maybe somewhat difficult to quell by late afternoon.
On the other hand, a wild infusion of decadent classicism
might make the student body really ripe for a good round of
Christianity. And after all. it was in pagan surroundings
that Christianity first blossomed.
It is, of course, still up to the Engineers to decide
whether they wil| allow paganism to run rampant about the
front campus. In the past, they have prevented other facul-
ties from showing their true colours. We call for a little All-
Varsity spirit. about the chariot race. Why should one faculty
'le intent on harboring all the pagans on the campus?
The Engineering Society has promised every entry a
fair start — which is somewhat more generous than usual.
Possibly, they are under the gentle influence of charity
(entry proceeds are going to SHARE), and perhaps we are

You Asked Me
Editor, The Varaty:
I suppose I should begrin all this with "Dear
Larry Dan-ell". The only thing is I really don't
icnow who you are, having never heard of you
before to-day when l happened to read "The Lost
Sheep" on the editorial page of The Varsity.
However, let us hope that such imaginary draw-
backs as the lack of an introduction won't place
unnecessary encumbrances on the friendly sort of
letter I should like to write to you.
In writing you at all, I am acting on the assump-
tion that your article in Tuesday's Varsity was
written with some semblance of sincerity. It is
not my personal view that you ai'e trying to start
a furor, although no doubt you have. I only hope
that people will do a little thinking themselves
before they start criticising you.
You have asked several questions, Larry. You
have numtwred yourself among the "Thomases who
doubt". You have refen-ed to yourself and to others
like you as "Those outside the fold"; people "to
whom God is only a word". Our questions are
intelligent. But I doubt if even the wisest person
could answer them — the way you seem to want to
be answered.
You see, you want everything proven to you,
Larry. "Let the Christians present the proof, if
there be any proof. You doubt things, but you
doubt because you can't see aJid touch." E>on't
you know. Larry, that the greatest things that
exist cannot be seen or touched? Take the air that
you breathe — you cannot see it — tout you cannot
live without it. You cannot see things like justice
and goodness, and love and imderstanding. But
they are there just the same. You may see the
manifestation of these thin^, but I defy you to tell
me you have seen, touched or felt the "aibsolutes".
I like the sentence wJiere you say, "I wish the
Christians were less, interested in my soul and
more interested in me." The real Christians, Lari-y,
are interested in you, from all aspects — even to
whether you like jam or marmalade on yoiu- toast
in the mornings. A real Christian who "loves his
brother" loves his whole brother, and not just his
brother's soul. It seems to me that you must have
been meeting the wrong type of Christians.
Of course, on the other hand, did it ever occur
to you why the Christians might be interested in
your soul at all? Did you ever think that the
Christian derives a good deal of happiness from
his love of God, and might just want to ring
you in on it too? I think I would be safe in saving
that's usually the motive behind most missions.
Don't you believe in miracles, Lai-ry? Think how
dull life would be without them. Maybe science
has an explanation for snow, but I don't think it
can explain the intricate and beautiful design of
the snowflake you might see if you were to
examine one under a microscope, Or ti,
a rose-petal or the colours in the '^^^iji.

Juan Haggart,
Osbert Dill may be the Di-
rector of Hart House Theatre
and he may mean well, but
after all, when it's a matter of
losing the Suez Canal for the
sake of one lousy week of Pyg-
malion, I feel that he should
stop and think.
Well, the story really goes back
to just after the war. Because of
Britain's dollar shortage, all
American movies were banned.
All their ideas were used, but
the titles were changed: The
Black Rose became Black Nar-
cissus. Angels with Dirty Paces
became Tlie Mudlark, etc. In
fact, George Bernard Shaw was
commissioned to steal the story
of Born Yesterday for Tlie Festi-
val of Britain. He called his
little play Pygmalion after his
mother's" daschund. Who would
dream that the play would be
smuggled to North America?
Osbert Dill, however, is an in-
dividualist; he isn't hidebound
by conventions or theatrical cus-
toms-. He brushed the customs
aside and smuggled into Can-
ada two packages of Peak
Frean's assorted, two Mark VI
Jaguars, and a copy of Pyg-
malion.
Well. ChiUL-htll wasn't fooled
for a minute. He realized what
had happened and foresaw the
terrible conseauences if the
plagiarism were discovered by
Representative Sheean of Chi-
cago. Back royalties would be so
vast that not even the surrender
oE Canada. South Africa, and
the Queen Mother herself would
begin to pay Britain's debt. He
told his cabinet that he was go-
ing to Washington on a Trans-
Atlantic C a r a b i n Weekend,
handed over the reins of gov-
ernment to William Glenesk and
told Bernard Shaw to drop
dead. (His death was dutifully
reported by Time and The Mc-
Gill Daily.)
Churchill sailed that day for
the New World and had it not
been for the gales on the North
Atlantic (God bless the Plying
Enterprise) which delayed him,
Osbert Dill might never have
got away with it, but by the time
Mr. Churchill arrived, the dam-
age was done.
Winnie docked in New York,
but when he saw that there was
to be no ticker-tape parade, he
sensed that the jig was up. He
immediately hid his "I like Ike"
button and bought a ten-dollar-
season ticket to Margaret's con-
cert series. Truman thought this
was splendid and promised to
overlook the whole Pygmalion
affair.
Churchill then decided to take
a trip to Ottawa to see for him-
self whether or not Louis St.
Laurent was really wearing
flowered sliirts with his striped
trousers. As might be expected,
he made a speech. Everything
might have been all right had
ha not mentioned the Governor-
General's World War II cam-
paign in Egypt.
You see. although Churchill
expected GBS to di'op dead on
the spot as he was told, Shaw
decided to wait until his sphinx-
portratt was finished and he
rushed to Egypt, While
for this portrait, and li-
to Churchill's Ottawa
over short-wave, he ^
had a brilliant idea for
Festival o! Britain. "Wnfl'.

the editors decided they would not contest the de-

The agreed with the official Bngdneerlng Society
description of the race: that it was "a fau-ly fair
race, run by honest Engineering methods "
The Jerry P. Potts Trophy. Mark II, was present-
ed at the end of the classic to the Mlnmg and
Metallurgy club. They rounded the course in a
record 2 minutes and 56 seconds.
Second in the race was The Varsity (3:15), and
third was Engineering Business (3:55) Quoted
times were from the official Engineering timer,
the Society's president Doug Sherk.
There wasn't much Interference from spectators
in this race this year— at least not offered the En-
gineering teams. The Varsity ran into some difti-
culty during the comse— but Mcds and Trinity
were the only teams that "didn't come in " And
Meds were given a 10-second handicap! TrUUty
turned turtle when it tried to Jump to track and
cut aci-oss the campus.
About lOOO people ringed the front campus and
crowded around the starting line at the south end
of the campus. They were weU-tiehaved, broke up

themselves with a few Toike Olkes— led from the

ing their own version of "Down Yonder" which
started "Next Friday in West Hall uc there'll b«

A low-flying sports pUne which bU2zed the front
campus, bombing the spectators with At-Home
ads, supplied an additional thrill lor the crowd
Once the leaflets even landed near the crowd- the
rest of the time they were blown to one side or
lodged in the tops of trees.
New types of chariots were modelled at this
year's race. In addition to the standard cement
truck type, fans saw a new four-wheeled typo,
put out by some of Mr. Ford's friends. And Meda
had a special light-weight type which looked as
°n a golf course with a club bag.
The race gave the Engineers an opportunity to
bring out their cannon, in one of lis few outinga
of the year. They weren't taking any chances on
Its being stolen, .though: the mighty mite was
secuiely chained— and padlocked— to two hefty
miners.

"'"^ for P,|yot« Porti«
The Victoria College flag staff
sported two Union Jacks yesterday,
one wind- tattered, the other rela-
tively new. The appearance of the
second fla^, the lacerated one, was
a mystery to everyone questioned.
The Victoria offices offered no ex-
planation. Mr; Stokes, superin-
tendent of buildings, stated that he
presumed "it was a student prank".
Stokes had the second flag remov-
ed from the mast shortly after 3
p.m.
It was rumoured among Vic stu-
dents that the torn flag was one
which had lain in a dusty tower
room since 1918. This flag was ac
companied by a sign which read
"For four years this tattered en-
sign regLstered Victoria's loss ii

never flew but at half mast".
Superintendent Stokes merely said
that the flag was an old one which
had been replaced.
In order to hoist the second Jack,
the pranksters had to move the
regular flag from half-mast. It has
been floivn at tJiLs position appar-
ently in memory of Ken Wilson
who died in the recent American
Airlines crash in New Jersey. Wil-
son was a Vic grad (class of'2T6)
and a prominent Canadian politic-
al economic journalist.
The subject of an address this
Sunday by Dr. C. P. Martin, head
of the Department of Anatomy at
McGill University, will be "Pow-
er." He has written several books,
ot which The Decline of Religion
(1940) is recognized as an author-
ity in its field.
He has beeo invited to the To-
ronto campus by the Versity
Christian - Fellowship as tbe third
speaker In a series of monthly ad-
Wycliffe College Chapel at 7:30
dresses. He will be speaking at
p.m. Sunday.
Dr. Martin came to Canada
from Dublin. Ireland in 1936 where
he was Professor of Anatomy at
Trinity CoUege. He received his
education at the same college, with
the degree of M.B., ChB.. MA and
DSc. At present he is the Robert
Reford Professor of Anatomy at
McGill.
Dr. Martin integrates his med-
ical interests into the broader con-
text of life as a whole. Whenever
he speaks at McGill. he is well re-
ceived, especially by his own
medical students.
In addition to his talk on Power,
Dr. Martin has been asked by the
medical students of the Varsity
Christian Fellowship to speak at
theii- fireside at 9 p.m. in the East
Residence of the Toronto General
Hospital.
More than 360,000 photographic
negatives have been taken in con-
nection with the forest resources
inventory carried out by the On-
tario Department of Lands and
Forests.
The Toronto team of Neville
Taylor. I UC, and John Barton, IV
Trinity, looked very young in com-
parlsen with the veteran Scotcli
debaters.
Taylor and Barton based their
opposition to the motion that "The
Commonwealth should federate" on
the basis that their opponents were
proposing a third power which
would be a cause for war rather
than creating peace. They said tliat
the United Nations offers the
example needed for world peace
wnere a group of individual nation*
are working together. The South-
East Asians were cited as an exist-
ing third p<iwer.
The Toronto t«am felt that fed-
eration would not work because oT
military, political and economic rea-
sons. The Commonwealth countries
have a widely divergent foreiirn re-
lations, according to the debaters,
where Canada is dependent on the
United States for defence, and In-
dia Is pursuing a middle of the
road policy between the U.S.-led
democracies and the Ru&sian-led
bloc.
In the political field they cite^l
the difference caused by South Af-
rica's racial segregation policy, while
in the economic field they felt that
unity would only benefit the United
Kingdom and restrict free trade.
Tomlinson. speaking for the mo-
tion said that the Toronto deba-
ters had been seeing everything
in black and white. When the Scots
proposed a federation he emphasiz-
ed that they did not include India
because India wa-.- not ready for
federation. He further stressed that
federation did not necessarily mean
that the commonwealth would pur-
sue a policy of complete self-suf-
ficiency. The Scots made no men-
tion of free-trade, Tomlinson said,
because while there would be a
great deal to be gained by the free-
ing of trade, a great deal would be
lost by the immediate freeing of
trade after a federation was effect-
ed.
Tlie Scotch team accused their
opponents Barton and Taylor, of
having a worms' eye view of tb*
I world and of being i)arochial.

THE V A R S I T 1
Conservatory Students' Works
New, Different And Dissonant
Wednesday afternoon's concert
to Hart House of a new works by
Conservatory students was all it
promised to be: different, disson-
ant and avant-garde. The ques-
tions asked by members at the end
were significant; one asked for a
definition of music; another, why
modern composers felt they had to
shock their audience.
Of the four worits performed,
one, quite frankly, meant almost
nothing to me. Morris Eisen-
etadt may, for ail I know, have
■written very significant music in
his suite for Clarinet and Piano,
However, it took me so long to
settle down to his idiom that not
until the last movement could I
even begin to detect repetitions of
musical phrases.
The-ieasiest way by fftr to ap-
preciate at first hearing was the
set of five songs on poems from
the "Child's Garden of Verses"
by Charles Wilson. Here the words
provide a handle by which to
grasp the intent of the music, anl
also, I think, the melody must be
more comprehensible in order to
make it vocally possible.
I thoroughly enjoyed these songs.
Some of them were obviously re-
lated to the words (The Railway
Carriage"); in some others ("The
Swing") it was the overall spirit
that determined the musical pat-
tern. And I am fairly sure there
was an intentional reference to
Schumann's "Soldier's March" in
"Marching Song'—a bright touch.
Feggie Shiff's Violin Sonata was
more difficult. The fast move-
ment, at any rate, had readily dis-
cernible form, but the tunes of
which it was made up already have
the sound of cliches. This im-
pression may be due to my lack
of discrimination, but I felt I had
heard them (or something very
like them) quite often before In

I have now' seen THiE RIVER for the second time. And it is ii
ing to note that there has been much campus discussion i
masterful film about adolescence and India.
As far as can be seen, there are two points of consistent
criticism. One is that technically, THE RIVER is disappointing, i
comes from purists of the Film Society and their kind, and then
iRenoir has let them down in cutting, camera use, etc.
To these purists, I have no answer except that THE RIVER i'
imaginative and satisfying than practically all the stuff we g*t ij
the usual film factories.
The othter .point is a more important one. The film is beatifol,]
it lacks a plot, the plot is unsatisfactory, or the plot is unimiw
Quite a few say this. I disagree entirely with this view. To me t
RIVER'S greatest achievement is the subtle and sensitive study c
change in the three girls from girlhood to womanhood
attendant joys and pains. In the very personal experiences of Hd
Vaieri and Melanie is shown the terrible life-and -death qiiaLij]
adolescent experience.
Projected against the constant and permanent river, whichj
life and takes death, what happens to the girls shows the prwii
dynamic Ufe in its very indefiniteness. This change, augmented m
sudden seemingly meaningless death of the boy Bogie and t'nej
of a new sister for Harriet, is the story of THE RIVER, where "i.1t[
ends, the end begins."

Hart House
Contestants
There have been three and
half entries to date in the Hart
House Quartets Contest, said Qave
Gardner. Assistant Warden, yester-
day The half entry is coming
from McMaster University in
Hamilton where there is a very ac-
tive quartet spirit. Since entries
must be members ol Hart House,
however, the McMaster entry is
ineligible to compete, but will be
present as guest performers.
Entries have already been re-
ceived from the Floor Polishers,
the Four Ai^smen, and the Four
Minims. It is hoped that there
will also be entries from Meds and
Skule.
The quartet that Gardner would
like to see is one that Hart House
officials have dubbed the "Mystery
Quartet." Down in the corridor
of Hart House where the barber
shop is. there has been a quartet
practising at noon hours. They
are not regulars, but no one seems
to know who they are. Gardner
has been down several times to see
them, but they have always just
left, or have not yet arrived. Their
favorite selection seems to be
"Margie."
This is the third year for the
contest, originated by Gerry Hart
and Charles McCurdy. It is spin-
sored by the House Committee in
Hart House.
Entry forms for the contest will
be available at the Warden's of-
fice until January 25. Elimina-
tions will take place at sing-songS
in Hart House on Tuesday and
Friday, between 1:30 and 2:00. be-
ginning the week of January 29.

Local hockey fans will get their first real look at the
Blues tonight in the game against McGill, which commences
at 815 pm. and inaugurates Varsity's home season. The
Varsity team went through a light drill last night in prepara,
tion for tonight's encounter and seem to be in good shape.

tonight for the Blues agatast the
Redmen. Paul prendergast has been
moved up temporarily to a forward
position along side of Jerry Hen-
derson and Al Conboy. There is still
a possibility that Jim Wilkes might
play also. By playing two previous
games with the Blues he has be-

many of the regular Blues who are

Nurses scored a decisive victory
last night as they trounced St,
Mike's 47-27, Both teams settled
down to a steady routine in the
first lialt which was non-rotation.
Here the Nurses showed that they
were a well organized crew, all
working together and the results
of their efforts were shown by the
score which was 21-16 at halt time.
During the rotation second halt,
the Nurses exploded tor 26 pomts.
They siiowed their ability to play
any and ah positions whereas St,
Mike's seemed to be a little con-
fused at times. For Nurses the
front line of Beycroft, Flint and
Thompson excelled in their spiking
efforts and serves, and Helen Blot
was a great asset to

This coming week-end the Var-

Zone Cliamplonships. The results
of these races are expected to
play a major part in determining
who will represent Varsity In this

still in the running for the six
positions on the team. Even last

The Blue line-up will present a
large number of changes from the
way it was a month ago. Bud
Natanson is gone, and Art Bin-
nington has o.uit because he found
playing basketball every lught
made him too tired to study. That
leaves Ray Monnot and Lou Lu-
kenda as the tall man to play the
"in" position. Bill Corcoran has
been brought up from the Junior
Varsity to replace Binmngton.
Corcoran. 6' 3" in height and about
190 pounds. Is tall enough and
ruggeff'-enough, though his shoot-
ing needs polishing up before he
becomes another Natanson. He
was nearly always good for at
least 20 points a game in high
I school last year, when he Played
the bucket position for UTS. The
previous year, he and Don Pawcett
were a hot combination with the
same team. His elevation to the
Blues rei ores the combination on
a somewhat higher level.
Ed Brennan will not be avall-
ablie for the McGill game, as he is
occupied with a function at St.
Mike's Friday night, but will join
the team at Queen's Saturday. Be-
sides Lukenda and Monnot, the
first line against McGill will prob-
ably be made up of Bill Huycke.

"There isn't much of a place for

be a deaconess would apparently
liave meant remaining single. I
was not sure whether there was
niicli ?ense in that. I don't see why
i woman cannot marry and still
serve God. After all He made us to

among people is to make God in

She emphasized the need for
Christians to adopt a critical yet
constructive attitude to politics
The Bible is concerned with man
the individual and how he faces so-
ciety, its forms and pressures she
said. It stressed the importance of
the community and yet looks at
the community from the view of
how much' it reflects the jusUce of
^he Kingdom of God, she said.
Botli Dr. Neibuhr and her hus-

good just to be critical," she said.
"I know how people consider
America as the lusty giant, or over-
grown chUd that makes them
rather fearful ot the capabihty of
wielding its tremendous power in
the world today. It Is quite true
that America is an enormous and
in a sense, inflammable country.
But it is hardly surprising con-
sidering different kinds ot people
and temperaments, with everyone
reactmg differently to - different
situations."
But the conntry has gone a long
way, she said, from isolationism to
a sense of its present international
responsibility. The biggest issue in
the coming election is how far
domestic policy can be geared to
foreign policy. We know, for ex-
ample, how Eisenhower stands on
foreign policy but he has never
commlted himself on domestic is-
sues, she said.
Dr. Neibhur said that she finds

in relation to her home life. But

there is no perfect time for the

Proof of God
No Surprise
Finally, the open secret has become a straight fact.
No longer need anyone discuss whether or not Canada should
have a native bom Governor-'General, knowing full weU that
Ottawa was on the brink of appointing one.
Nor was the Government's (more euphemistically *e Again
King in-council's) choice a surprising one. The Right
Honourable Vincent Massey is certainly primus inter pares
.s far as "candidates" for this very high office are concerned.
His long and distinguished career, both as an educator
and a diplomat, has fitted him well for a position of such
high honour. And, save for one ill-fated endeavour, he has
taken no part in the open arena of practical politics.
Through his book "On Being A Canadian" and his chair-
manship of the Royal Commission on tfie Arts, Letters and
Editor, The Varsity:
I read with some enjoyment Larry DaneU's
article, "The Lost Sheep".
Larry raised a numl>er of interesting questions,
all of wliich can be answered and. which is im-
portant, in a manner I should think acceptable
to Larry.
In particular, he demands as follows: "If God
Is let tlK Chiitsians present the proof, if there be
a^ proof." I select this because it seems most
important, though I'd rather tlak about Hell.
you might say that I stick my neck out consid-
erably in promising to prove to Lai-ry the existence
of God. But I don't think so. If God is, as I
claim, the ruling force in our world, there should
be no difficulty in proving it.
We'll begin this proof with a little bit of
.Implificatlon. There is God. Jesus Christ. Canon
Milford, organized religion, a period of thirty-four
years, two thousand years ago, and the month of
January 1952. Wc throw out of the argument Jesus
Christ, Canon Miltord, organized religion, and a
period of thirty-four years, two thousand years
ago, retaining for our own use simply God and
the month of January, 1952. \
The problem then is, quite simply, to pr<«»e the
existence of ^od in January, 1962.
Now Larry is no fool. He is reading intently
by thU time and expostulatnig to himself in
naughty words.
OJC. Larry, leave us go looking tor God.
And what, or whom shall we seek? Shall we seek
lor a man? But God is not a man. Shan we ^
lor a thing? But God Is not a thing. Then ,
what shall we seek? ^
■We have arrived at a critical point namely
definition of God.
I proceed to this definition. At every moment
passing time in the month of January. 1952
are making decisions, as men have always m^'
them and as men will make them until the woh!
falls away. Now these decisions arise from cilllet,„,
causes, as hunger, thirst, the biological urge. ^
so ofl, arising from the organs and nerve centres 01
the body. Such urges as a beast might know,
But there aie other decisions which arise n„
from the flesh. As a man might put his hand im,
the fire, saying, "I do this for my friend",
decisions constitute God. And the man becomei
God for the lime.
Therefore, if Larry seeks God, he may find jji^j^
unexpectedly, in himself and in his friends.
As a case in point, I recall the story of Corporal
Joe. The corporal had led his section across j
field which was being shelled Quite venemously,
One of his men being, wounded, the corporal went
back for him and was himself killed. I think ot
the corporal walking upright amid the white
flames of the exploding shells and I say that God
walked again among us.

Editor, The Varsity:
Because of profound indolence
and mincing sense of decorum
and good taste, I am not given
to the writing of vociferous let-
ters to newspapers. However I
was shocked from my decadent
lethargy by the heterogeneous
character of the material pre-
sented on the last page of Tues-
day's Varsity. The cartoon was
funny and as a consequence be-
yound criticism. The editorial
was, I thought, slightly suspect
but innocuous due to the ambig-
uity of its blundering innuendos.
The letter by one Mr. Darrell I
found offensive in the extreme.
I am not a Christian: neither
have I the courage to be a re-
spectable atheist. I am with Mr.

not proud of this lamentable fact.
Agnosticism is the position of a
coward, of the man temper-
amentally too weak, in the face
of the inscrutable mystery of
life, suffering, and death, to make
the crucial leap into absolute
faith or else utter faithlessness
and then be consistent according
to his commitment.
Moreover let the pitiable weak
one? listen with respect to him
ment, be he Canon Milford or
Bertrand Russell. It is the tone
of smugness in Mr. Darrell's let-
ter even more than its execrable
literacy style that I found so re-
volting. Somehow I personally
felt deeply ashamed upon reading
it. I cannot exactly discover why
and I am afraid to make too greit

Lectures^ High Schools
Cause Failures — Smith
Poor lecturers and inadequate
secondary school training are two
reasons President Sidney Smith
sees for an "alarming failure
rate" in the first year of some
courses. The president laid those
charges in his annual report, re-
leased over the weekend.
He pointed particularly to a 65
percent failure rate on a "simple
examination" in English, given tc
all Pass Arts students taking that
subject. The test was designed to
test the student's knowledge of
punctuation, the range of his vo-
cabulary, and his abiUty to sum-
marize a piece of expository
prose.
"The results were, in the highest
degree, alarming", the report
adds.
This indicates that the training
in English given by the high
schools i.s no longer adequate
equipment for work in the uni-
versity, the President charges,
and adds -\i appear to be in-
cumbent on the university to make
sure that illiteracy no longer
dwells in easy partnership with
the possession of a degree."
In another part of his report, the
President also suggested that
teaching methods may have some
bearing on failure rates.
"Independent thinking and intel-
lectual power cannot be devel-
oped by a droning dictation of lec-
ture notes, sometimes unrevised
from year to year or from decade
to decade, to be slavishly copied in
students' notebooks", he said.
The student who depends solely
on such notes will be at a loss to
answer exam questions that in-
volve a different approacli or
broader consideration, the report
continues. "And rightly so". It
adds, "the mere repetition of the
undigested ideas of others ought
not to earn a passing mark."
In his report, Dr. Smith quotes
Professor Galbraith (of Oxford),
who once remarked that a lecturer
must be "en rappoi-t" with his
audience, and this can be done
only by impromptu lectures— the
more impromptu the better. "In
my opinion", the quotation con-
tinues, "the most universal custom
of 'giving' lectures prepared
months before in note-books has
done more than anything else to
shake the faith of the young in
learning."
Concluding this section. Dr.
Smith suggests a frank self-einaly-
sis and self-appraisal by faculty
members, which might be follow-
ed by general discussion within
teaching divisions on how to im-
prove the instruction.
The President also reports that
admission requirements have been
raised in several courses, with the
idea of stressing "quality, rather
than quantity."
"We have neither room nor time
for those who lack the mental and
moral capacity for the sustained,
self-disciplined effort that a uoi-
vereity course demands", he says,
and adds: "It is no kindness to
admit to a university young men
and women who are not equipped
by nature and prepared by school-
ing for advanced study."
I ask seriously whetlier the cri-
teria for admission should not in-
clude something more than exami-
nation records, he concludes.

Must Find New Solutions
In Asia - Owen Lattimore
Tlie more mutual assistance pro-
jects and exchanges on the student
level between tliis country and
South East Asia the better, Owen
Lattimore, Director of the Walter
Bines Page School of Interna-
tional Affairs at John Hopkins
TJniversity in Baltimore, saW, in an
Interview yesterday.
He eommcnded the efforts of
Canadian university students for
their efforts along these lines.
Lattimore is in Toronto to make
an address at Holy Blossom
Temple tonight on "the Roots of
Conflict in Asia."
He added thai it was particu-
larly desirable for students in
Bouth-East Asian countries to
come to study in North America
BO that they might become better
acquainted with our point of view.
"However," he said, "we assume
that the best thing Is to just have
students from that area study
here. But students from North
America should make every effort
to visit South-East Asia," he said.
-It is the best way of giving them
the assurance that they are not
carrying their own torch alone."
Schooled in England, Lattimore
Bved in China from the time he
was 19 until he returned to the
United States to take up his pres-
ent post in 1938. He gained his ex-
tensive knowledge of the country
first hand by travel and study
while he conducted an ex^rt-im-
port business in Shanghai.
•TPe are floundering around in
a world where old soluUons to
problems do not work and where
new ones have not yet been found,
Lattimore said.
In South East Asia the whole
order of magnitude has changed,
he said. When India first assert-
ed its desire lor independence in
the massacre of a hundred years
ago and China half a centurv ago
In the Boxer RebelUon, it took only
a few ten thousands of men to
re-establish order, he said.

OWEN LATTIMORE
New Movie Venture
To Star Western U
!U<ndon. Ont —(CUP)— The
Kational nim Board plans to
make a feature-length movie on
the life ol a Canadian university
co-ed. „
The University of western On-
tario here and three hundred of its
students, plus professional actors
and actresses will take part in the
production.
The NFB, shooting the movie in
Ptbruary. will call on one hundred
and fifty UWO couples for a dance
scene. Seeking "a typical informal
imiversity dance" scene, the Board
'has already booked a dance band
lor the occasion.
Following a survey of all Cana-
dian universities. Western's cam
pus was chosen because of its
beauty, size, landscaping and
buildings.
The film will be made with the
sociological point of view to show
Ihe therapeutical values o£ col-
lege life — for this particular girl,
an aid to conquering an inferiority
complex caused by hating a father
in an insane asylum. The home
background of the heroine will be
a small Western Ontario centre.
The NFB plans to show the com-
pleted film across Canada this
faU.
right with 250,000 troops, and the
French, with about 140,000, have
been stalemated for six years
against the rebels in Indo-China,
he said.
The people in these countries can
no longer be pushed around. New
methods must be found, he said.
Only by being friendly and deal-
ing with South East Asian coun-
tries as equals can we retain their
support and friendship, Lattimore
contmued. He commended the
British government for its con-
structive attitude In India and
Pakistan prior to granting them
Independence. He said that the
British had not told the leaders of
the former colonies that they
would get their freedom IP they
had such and such a goverranent,
but that they were going to be free
and had to prepare for it.
Lattimore also commended the
principle of one British oil firm
using Indians and Pakistani as
managers for their enterprises, in
recognition of the new state of
affairs.
The newly Independent coun-
tries in South-East Asia, Latti-
more said, are opposed to any or-
ganization by foreigners. It is pos-
sible to give them aid and help to
develop their countries without in-
timidating them, by negotiating
with them as equals and not de-
manding control for risk involved
in investments.
Lattimore said that he could not
offer any snap judgments for
problems in Asia because of their
complicated nature, besides the
fact that accurate information is
not as readily available from that
area.
There is no real satisfactory
solution for most of the problems
in Asia, he said. We are in for a
long period of uncertainty and
makeshift solutions provided that
someone does not pull a trigger.
"We must be careful not to
patronize the leaders of South-
East Asian countries. Most of these
men know the insides of the west
such as few Europeans know about
far-eastern countries."

Last a/ear I di^ussed the oroli-
feration of extra-curricular activi-
ties, especially the kind that is not
in itself an educational process. I
am happy to report that the prob-
lem did not bulk so large In 1950-1.

General Courses . . .
The success of the new course
Trill depend, not only on the num-
ber and calibre of the staff and
facilities for it, but also on the at-
titude of the te>ichers in the Fac-
ulty of Arts towards the students
eni-olled in it.
Will these students be regarded
as playing second fiddle to the
honor course students, and receive
only such personal attention, time,
and energy as are left over after
the needs of the students in the
honor courses are met?
The design of the new course,
wiUi its balance of distribution and
concentration, should attract and
be worthy of first-class students.
I would advise many students who
now register for honor courses to
enroll in the General Course, -af-
fording as it does a foundation in
three areas — the humanities, the
social sciences, and the natural
sciences. The specialization to be
found in most honor courses is
not necessarily the best academic
diet for all able students.
, I crave for the general course
the parity of esteem and that at-
titude and effort on the part of the
staff and students that will en-
gender pride in It.
Housing . . .
The first question asked me when
1 interview men and women for
key positions on the staff, in at
least live cases out of ten, is "WiU
I be able to find living accommoda-
tion for myself and my family in
Toronto?"
In several instances in the past
lew years we have been unable to
™ease a first-class man because
we could not fhid for him, or sug-
eest to him a means of finding,
adequate accommodation at a cost
witliin his means. The Housing
Service of the Students' Adminis-
trative Council has been of inesti-
mable value; but the present situa-
tion is beyond the scope of the
Housing Service and is rapidly be-
coming worse.
The comment applies particularly
to men from the United Kingdom,
who are unable by reason of foreign
exchange control to bring much
capital with them to make the first
payment on the purchase of a
house.

ments have dictated a partial solu-
tion. Smaller income from studen
organization fees has curtailed, and
v/iU curtail activities.
. . . Student executives have taken
steps to correlate extra-curricular
activities and to exchange informa-
tion.
. . . May not the confusion and
irrelevance of many activities gi-ow
out of lack of interest on the part
of the faculty.
(Quoting a paper presented by
Tom Symons. Trinity 5T1. to the
National Conference of Canadian
Universities): "Abdication by the
faculty of a share in student extra
curricular life seems contrary t-
the fundamental concept of the
University as a single community,
I am convinced that students
welcome faculty participation and
are eager to avail themselves of the
advice of those who. besides being
more mature, have the asset of per
manency.
I§ieminars...
The quality of an honor course
depends largely on the extent to
which instruction is given a per-
sonal emphasis in group work and
in discussions with individual stu
dents.
Dui'ing the a'owded years of the
post-war period, the student in the
honor course has often been denied
this fundamental ri^ht. In certain
departments, seminar and discus-
sion periods have been assigned to
class assistants, or have tieen dis-
pensed with entirely. We must take
steps to restore what is lost.
It is no adequate solution to fall
ba«k on jimior members of the
staff who are just groping their way
to some familiarity with their
teaching responsibilities. The sue
cessful conducting of a seminar or
a group discussion is perhaps the
ultimate test of teaching abiUty.
. For this reason it is of imme-
diate importance that senior mem-
bers of the staJf should have the!'-
lecturing loads lightened in ordei
that they may have time to as-
sume tutorial and seminai- respon-
sibilities.
Employment ...
Sometimes it has been asserted
that Canadian universities are
graduating more young men and
fl'omen than can be absorbed In
our national economy, I assert on
the contrary that Canada Is on
the eve of greater expansion in
every sphere, and that university
graduates will be required to
match that development.
There were those who viewed
with alarm the large enrolment
of Canadian universities in th©
post-war period. Their ominous
predictions have not been fulfilled.
University graduates in the six
years since 1945 have entered an
employment market that has ab-
sorbed all but a few who are un-
adaptable to the wide range of vo-
cations.
Fellowships . . .
I hope that any federal scheme for assisting students will embrace
scholarships for candidates for higher d^rees m the graauate schools of
Canadian universities, Canadians are watching theu most gifted graduates
go to the United States for postgraduate training, because valuable fellow-
ships are available in American universities on a scale unknown in
Canada. These young citizens may intend to return to their native land,
but associations made during their graduate work may draw them
inexorably into American industry, professions and academic life.
. . . We are attempting, tluough the development and advancement
of the School of Graduate Studies, to keep postgraduate students in
Canada. . . . The School of Graduate Studies is performing a national
service. Measured by international standards of scholarship, our School
compares favorably with institutions of the first rank in Great Britain
and the United States.
Tlie following facts Ulustrate the gap that must be closed If we ar«
to keep at home Canadians of fellowship caltote. Hie 37 membei-s of the
Association of American Universities have an average of $100,000 a year
for fellowships, and Canadian applicants are welcomed with open arms;
whereas our School of Graduate Studies in Its best year distributed
$23,961 in f^owshipe.
. . . There is also an urgent need for fellow^lpfi to enable graduates
from other countries to enrol in Canadian graduate schools. Our campuses
would be enriched by the presence of more students from other land«
with their varioiis backgiounds, traditions and aspirations.
Departmentalisation...
Tile honor course is characterized
by its intensive iffograra in certain
disciplines and cognate fields. It
encourages a strong departmental
emphasis.
For the most part this Is healthy,
since it leads to the development
of departments that provide expert
instruction in all branches of the
subject.
Yet herein lies also a danger. The
deportment may well develop a
sense of splendid isolation, and
force the student into an ever-
nurrowiiii field.
Or It may develop an equally
dar\gerous. if more subtle. Je.hnique
of aggrandizement: that of giv-
ing specialized instruction that pro-
perly belongs in other departments.
... A member of the faculty who
is unaware of the methods of those
who work in cognate fields will be
a poor teacher and a se:^>ond-rate
scholiir. . . . Yet it would be a seri-
ous threat to the body academic If
the economist, for instan:e. were to
Insist upon teaching his own rare-
fied version of political economy,
hi-story, anthrcpology. sociology,
and psychology.

Once again last Saturday, a To-
ronto audience had living proof
of the guitar's stature as a concert
instrument. Andres Segovia played
a guitar-recital as self-contained
as any piano recital.
The program consisted of three
groups, the first including clas-
sical guitar and lute music, the
second transcriptions of harpsi-
chord and piano piece.-;, and the
last, 20th century guitar music.
For encores, Segovia played three
Spanish folk tunes, including the
little Christinas carol that seems
to be a special favorite of his.
It was not only the primitive
thrill of sheer virtuosity that made
the program attractive. Tnie, Se-
govia's performance sometimes
suggests the acrobat's, but it also
gives real satisfaction, and often
reveals his profound musical in-
sight.
The amazing and fascinating
variety of tone which Segovia
manages to get out of the guitar
made the very limitations of the
instrument into assets. Instead of
imperceptible gradation^ of tone
such as are characteristic of the
piano, the guitar makes a point
of bold contrasts. On Saturday, as
on previous occasions, Segovia's
playing reminded me of a harpsi-
chord, with its sharply defined
registers.
One soon bocomes accustomed to
the rather harsh technical noises
— clicks, squeals, etc., inevitably
produced by the instrument. After
a while, they merely have the ef-
fect of accentuating the percussiv*
quality of the sound, and are ac-
cepted like the twang of the harpl
sichord string or the click of the
piano key. »^
Perhaps the most astoundine
trick of all was produced in the
"Sevillana" by Turina. Twice the
guitarist tapped the sound-box of
the strument while stopping the
strings. The effect was reminiscent
of the kettle drum — a thud, but
with distinct pitch and overtones
One seldom hears an audience as
quiet as Saturday's. The small
weak-sounding instrument, striv-
ing to fill Eaton Auditorium with
sound kept them almost holding
their breath lest they should drown
it out with the slightest noise,

The failure of the Toronto Sym-
phony Orchestra last Wednesday
night was more in its choice of
music than m its performance.
The main work of the evening
was the Schumann Third Sym-
phony, which, aside from a few
pleasing melodies, has little else to
commend it. The rest of the pro-
gram consisted of Bach, arranged
by MacMillan. some Mozart, ar-
ranged by Tchaikowsky, some
Gretry. arranged by Mottl, and
Brahms on a theme of Haydn.
The orchestra's treatment of the
Schumann work was on the whole
dull and lacking in intensity,
without sufficient change of pace,
or mood. The last movement
caught the lyrical spirit of the
work better.
The Tchaikowsky "Mosiartiana"
suite suffered at times from an
over-sentimentalizing, especially in
the third movement. The first
movement, "Gigue", sounded more
like Mozart, with its delicate inter-
play of the various string choirs.
Only in the Gretry Ballet Suite,
a gay, sparkling piece, did the
orchestra seem to come alive for
the first time during the evening.
The Toronto Symphony Or-
chestra Is a fine orchestra, poten-
tially the best in Canada. Its eon-
cert on Wednesday night was,
however, more soporiphic than
symphonic, proving Uieie is noth-
ing wrong with the drchestra that
a good bit of imaginative pro-
gramming won't cure.

Helsinki, Finland (Special) — A
survey of all the 9.200 students at
Helsinki University ha^ revealed
that the average of students is 24
years and nine months. The men at
Finland's largest institution of high-
er learning average 25 years and
two months, the survey showed.
Average age for first year students
is 21 years and six months. As far
as is known this situation is unique
in Europe and it is caused by social
conduitions including better hous-
ing and increased scholarships, the
Finnish student paper said. A pro-
fessor at the university commented,
that the average age could be lower-
ed if so many students did not find
it necessary to finance their studies
from their own earnings, thereby
prolonging the age at which they
can enter college.
ast Saturday, Trinity College
presented a Centennial Concert.
The first half of the program was
designed to present music by com-
posers living either in 1852 or 1952.
The potentialities of this scheme
were not realized, because either the
musit or the performance was in-
ferior. Indeed, an otherwise unmem-
orable evening was saved from ob-
livion by a performance, in the sec-
ond half of the program, of Schu-
bert's "Trout" Quintet by four mem-
bers of the TSO and Leo Barkin.
, Of the first half. Z find very
little good to say. The Brahms
Liebeslieder Waltzer opened the
proceeding^. It seems that no mat-
ter what is done to these pieces,
something of their spirit remains.
The Englisih Madi' -l Singers en-
tered into the spirit only occasion-
ally, afraid to commit themselves,
most of the time. Pianists John
Lynn and John Sidgwick gave
straightforward, uninspiring read-
ings.
Lynn then attempted some of the
vignettes which comprise Schu-
mann's "Kinderscenen," ending with
Traumerei. His idea of how to play
them is to compress as much ru-
bato as possible into each bar and
wonderfully expressive music will
result. All that remains is a strain-
ing for effect, and no music. Lynn
was later joined by Sidgwick for a
performance of six or so ditties by
William Walton called Duets for

Cliiildren. Sidawick seemed to re-
store a sense of rhythm to Lynn
and together they gave a perform-
ance which emphasized the humor
in the music.
Meanwhile, Sir Ernest MacMiU
lan's Christmas Carols had been
performed by Mary Sidgwick (so-
prano) and a string trio of members
of the TSO. The strings gave sen-
sitive •performances, but Miss Sidg-
wick seemed inadequate. To con-
clude the first half, "the English
Madrigal Singers returned to per-
form Godfrey Hideout's setting of
Caedmon's Hymn to the Creator,
composed especially for the occasion.
By this time, having been bombard-
ed by so much music of diverse
characteristics, I found it difficult
to penetrate to the essence of this
music. However, it was an interest-
ing number, but did not seem re-
markable. The performance was
comparatively good, but lacked sure-
ness in the women's parts.
The members of the TSO who
performed in the Schubert were
Hyman Goodman, (violin), Eugene
Hudson (viola), Marcus -Adeney
(cello), and Sydney Wells (bass).
Leo Barkin was up to usual excel-
lence, and the others were at all
times good. Wells managed to^keep
his instrument part of the ensemble
rather than just letting it rumble
along on the bottom as it so often
does. However, after so uneventfutV"
an evening, one did not bother to
analyse this performance, but just
sat back to enjoy it.

LEAP YEAR
Winnipeg (CUP)— After a three-year ateence, emancipation of
"girl - in boy-girl relationships Is with us again. It is said that when
they were setting up the calendar many hundreds of years ago, they
discovered that fickJe ole' sun preferred to remain around one day
extra every four years. This day naturally had to be accounted for,
and in a gesture of unprecedented benevolence, they gave this exfcra-
day very four years to little February, the mite among months.
Being a resom-ceful type, woman immediately claimed this extra
dfly as her own. Her arguments ran something like this: Man is master
of every situation every day of every year. You've got this extra day
and it's just a teensy-weensy Iddy-biddy one every four years'
Whaddya say, big boy?
And so man gave her February 28 as woman's very own. But man ■
underestimated his foe and, being the resourceful type, woman drove
home the thin edge of the wedge she had thus established, and now
she has the whcde year— officially. Soon they named it "I^p Year,"
upon discovering that every year in four woman was leaping at t»)e
opportunity, and man was leaping out of the way. Historical data,
released by the Dolninion Bureau of Statistics, reveals that more of
the former have been successful than the latter.
At first man ti-ied to fight against it— after all man is the rational
animal. The draughtsmen of the American institution decreed that
every fourth year there should be elections for the president of that
great republic, hoping that the populace, both male and female, would
be so absorbed with this quadriennial three-ring circus, they would
forget about leap year. There was also the underlying suggestion that
to think of anything but elections every fourth year was un-American.
But even the members of the constitutional congress, those para-
gons of so many other virtues, underestimated their foe. An eternal
orchid for subtlety must go to her who successfully cultivated the idea
> that it is only consistent for woman to run for man at the same time
as man is running for office.
The hand that rocks the cradle is always careful to school her
daughter for the time when the younger one must go into the world
and find a mate. Consequently, technique after technique is passed
down from generation to generation, with slight adaptations to particu-
lar environmental conditions. Only the blatant aspect of this purpose is
revealed during Lea.p Year. Actually, woman's aim in life remains
fixed all the time.
The late, bewhiskered George Bernard Shaw (a married man
himself) warned his brother men in Major Barbara, when he stated:
"A man chases a woman until she catches him." Therein lies the key
to the whole matter. By playing one man's vanity, by allowing man
to think he is the master of the situation, woman leads man into the
trap which he springs for himself when he proposes, and she generously
accepts. "Rien he sipends the rest of his life blindly recounting how
he wooed her.
Coyness and reluctance, with Just the right degree of interest,
seem to be the main characteristics of the various techniques utilized
by woman. Such feminine statements as "You really want little old me
to go out with you" should put the would-be bachelor on his guard,
but, the natural line of reasoning which inevitably follows is: well,
I must really be something and here's a girl that appreciates it, at
last. He's hooked.
The girl who seems distant and aloof is equally dangerous. To the
average man she presents a challenge (that damn vanity again), and
in the process of meeting the challenge . . . well, you know the rest.
There is the type who plays a number of her gentlemen friends
off against each other until the one she wants finally oomes through
to keep her away from the rest.
The sneakiest trick of all, however, is utilized during I^eap Year
itself. This is the habit of running pictures of eligible bachelors on
the society pages of the newspapers. "This is as much as to say: "Here
are your targets, girls,'' The effect on men is the desired one. for,
^^aithough openly ridiculing the unfortunates selected by the society
> editor, they are secretly jealous and set out to show they are just as
eligible as the eligibles pictured.
By being on his guard against these mixed subtle and blatant
activities, the average male may yet survive 1952. Let this be the
clarion call for the preservation of bachelorho . . . oops, there goes a
button off our shirt^and we wanted to wear it to the sorority party

Dalton Tnimbo's pUy THE BIGEST THTITP in
TOWN is one of those very rare plays that are
genuinely funny about very serious things from
euthanasia (mercy kUling) to high finance, from
bringing up a daughter in intlalion in the mor-
ticmn's trade. It is a farce that can be appreciated
by intelligent and. if I may venture the word
sophisticated people. Anyone who finds the play
offensive should be given a pass to aU Walt
Disney shorts and kept out of the way of people
wJio take their enjoyment seriously, or who like
serious subjects dished up wilih careless abandon.
. Tile characters who wander through the under-
taker's parlour on the night of John Troybalfs
passing are aJl very i-eal and. what is unusual for
a farce-comedy, they are not steieoptyped. The
Jupiter Theatre have met the situation by having
unusually competent actors, who under Roberta
Beatty's direction, have presented us with an even

Budd Knapp in the long and difficult part of
Bert Hutchins deserves most of the praise. There
were fine undertones in the more serious scenes,
and all the honesty and thoughtfulness of a quiet
small-town tradesman implicit in his most drunken
pronouncements. His greatest handicap was that
he could not always be heard, and a few of his
gags never got past the footlights.
Most likely it is the fault of the play— perhapa
the director— but the first act seemed to be under-
played so tfiat the audience never got really in-
terested until the second act when a good case of
drunkenness settled in just around the entrance of

As a tied hockey t'^me leaves us colder than the ice
Bypface it was played on, the only constructive thing we
•i;hou^ht Friday's game between McGill and Varsity showed
(and very plainly at that) was that as far as hockey is
concerned, the CIAU needs, and in fact, must hix-e its own
officials. To elucidate:
Eddie Metham and Jim Primeau, two of the Big Time's
best linesmen (Primeau has even refereed in the NHL),
attempted to officiate the opener of the 1952 Varsity season
The result was near disaster and complete chaos — the game
"was never at any point of the contest in control of the
officials. Flagrant offences went undetected; those that
should never have been called were, and so on, ad nauseam
This situation, which has become a common observation
associated with all Senior Intercollegiate hocked garyes, must
atop before it ruins College hockey.
The reasons for this deteriorating situation are varied
and many. But the most important ones are that there are
different officials handling different games and that the
ones who inevitably make their reappearance are the worst
refs from other local leagues. The officials handling U of M-
McGill games are a case of the later point, while the former
was well represented by last Friday's game. For the Metham-
Primeau duo are competent officials — they've proved this
in the N.H.L. — but not being used to the style of play in
the college loop, and being used to NHL hockey, they let
certain infractions go at the beginning of the game, and
thus lost control of the game right then and there. This
wouldn't be so tragic if they really cared, but as they were
not responsible to loop officials, instead of working harder
to regain control of the game, they seemed to relax and let
the players do exactly what they wanted, when they wanted.
They seem to care so little that frequently both referees were
behind the play. No more striking reason could be offered
to league officials for hiring their own hockey referees.

Varsity McGill Tie
Friday's Thriller 3-3
In Overtime Hockey
By BARRY THOMAS
An aggressive McGill hockey team, playing with a never
sajr die attitude, fought an uphill struggle to gain a 3-3 tie
wtih Varsity Blues last Friday night at the Arena. It was
only in the last minute of regulation time that the Montreal-
ers managed to rack up the tieing marker off the stick of
their right winger Whitey Shutz. There was no scoring in
the overtime period. '
The game was rough and bruis-
ing to say the least and several
times threatened to break out into
open warfare. The iBlues who looked
sharp early in the game, had scored
their three goals in the first two
[jeriods before a return goal by Mc-
Gill in the last minute of the sec-
ond period.
The Varsity effort certainly
wasn't helped by the loss of their
rugged defenceman Joe Kane who
crashed heavily into the boards in
the first period and was carried off
the ice with facial cuts and a slight
concussion. Approximately 20 stitch-
es were required to close the cuts.
The injury had somewht.' of a de-
moralizing effect on the Blues but
it was more the fact that the locals
seem to tire faster than the Red-
men that spelt their downfall.
AI Conboy was also another cas-
ualty for the Blues, getting nicked
twice in the face and requiring
stitches to close the wounds. After
Conboy had retired in the last per-
iod Coach Bill Wade used only his
first two forward lines with the
three defencemen. It was during the
last period and overtime session
that the McGill team, which was at
full strength, seemed to be the
fresher of the two teams.
All three Varsity forward lines
sliared in the scoring honours with
Jerry Henderson potting the first
goal, assists going to Wilkes and
Pitzlienry. Don Rope made it 2-0
when he rapped home a pass from
Al Fasan. Captain Ernie Frey com-
pleted the Blues' scoring by knock-
ing the puck past MacLellan in the
McGill nets after a goal mouth
scramble.
Gene Robillard, Pete McElheron,
and Schutz were the McGill marks-
men with the latter gettin^ that all
important goal with only 50 seconds
of the game left. It was veteran
goalie Bob MacLellan in the McGill
nets who seveiral times saved the
day for the Redmen with sensation-
al saves especially in the overtime
session. Down at the other end of
the rink, goalie Jack Ross was as
equally brilliant for the Blues. In
the last and overtime periods when
McGill was pressing, he came up
with some spectacular stops.

Bobby Coulter's appointment as
the Toronto delegate to the Inter-

sion in Montreal as the Toronto
delegate was ratified by the ^Ath-
letic Directorate at a meeting on
January 22. Coulter was formerly
coach of the Blues, handing over
the reins to Masterson in 1948.
The Directorate tentatively ap-
proved an exhibition football match
between the Blues and the Sarnia
Imperials on September 27th. The
Imps frequently play teams with
Intercollegiate teams but they have
not met a Varsity team jlnce \\
The Directorate recommended
that the appointment of Senior In-
tercollegiate football officials be
made by the Rugby Advisory Com-
mittee, and that this recommenda-
tion be forwarded to the Canadian
Intercollegiate Athletic Union.
It wai. also approved that a U of
T track team would compete in in-
door track meets this spring. It was
recommended to the O.I.A.U. that
Toronto is In favor of keeping the
Intercollegiate track meet on an in-

Bill Bush picked up another
second place for the Blues when

two out of three bouts in the 174

By 1960, With Luck
After the unique experience of. wftness-
tng the Christian mission and the annual
chariot race in the same week has ceased
to titillate tlie undei-gaduate imagination,
■we return to the sudden departure of SAC
president Syd Wax to the Pan-American
conference in Rio de Janeiro.
"You'd think be was Mike Pearson,"
commented one student, a little awed and
considerably astounded. There is. of
course, a grain of truth in the com-
parison, none wliatsoever in the aquation
9t the two positions.
For the National Federation of Cana-
dian University Students iNPCXJSi has
its foreign affairs, albeit a f^r cry from
those of the Federal Government, and the
responsibility for carrying out its policies
lies with the University of Toronto. And
the chairmanship of the International
Affairs Committee is in the hands of Syd
Wax.
AU of which does little to explain the
present trip to Bio, following heird upon
the Edinburgh conference. And the eternal
"why International activities" still re-
mains. (
The whole purpose of these seemingly
endless conferences with their voluminous
reports, their high -sounding plu-ases.
their co-ordinating schemes is action.
Action means relief programs lilte
©HARE, exchange tours like the Russian
visit, international scholarships like those
offered by ISS to DP student.^ to study in
Canadian universities. All such plans have
some meaning, even some importance to
university students.
The success of any conference can be
Judged only in terms of the results which
It can effect. This means "practical re-
gults." the implementation of at least
some of its programs, so that students can
become aware of some of the international
spirit their delegates exude.
Everyone on the campus who has tallted
to European or Asiatic students Is aware
of the value of such contacts. It is nothing
so condescending as "coming to under-
stand how the other half lives"; rather it
Ls the stimulus and challenge of view-
points different, possibly more profound,
than his own.
In a university like Toronto, where
students are drawn from relatively homo-
geneous backgrounds such challenges to
ingrained complacency are invaluable. But
this is only one of many "programs which
international confrences asually embark
the ultimate met^hysical explanation,
ing.
From Rio, of course, we can ex,pect
nothing so startling as the mass importa-
tion of twenty gay caballeros. one for each
university member of NFCUS. Rather, the
most we can possibly hope for, and tlii.s is
rasy optimism, is the formation of a Pan-
American national student union. Through
such a tfnion NFCUS could work to effect
relief programs and student exchanges.
The chances of forming such a union
have, in the past at least, been slim. Uni-
veisities with totally different standards,
lack of student organization, a smatter-
ing of communist splinter groups — ru-
mours as thick as the lower Amazon
jungle have been rampant.
The truth is, of course, that no one, not
even the delegates, seems to know much
at>out South American universities and.
thence, what can be expected from the
Rio meeting. However, the formation of
any such union seems to fall into the gen-
eral pattern of regional organization
M'hich both the Stockliolm and Edinburgh
advised, and which NFCUS has been
iirging, ^
First we will have to see whether South
American countries sport recogniza ble
universities, then whether aside from the
Brazilians, they care to be organized.
Miaybe by 1960 a caballero or so.

Christianity
JFaiih Via Min^i
The following is the first in a series of
articles on the intellectual bases of Chris-
tianity, written by Stephen Somerville, IH
St. Mike's.
Testimony of the interest which the
subject of Christianity has for us is ap-
parent by the frequency with which it is
discussed in The Varsity, if in no other
place The widest range of views from
the frankly irreligious to the warmly
Christian is found. The campus was re-
cently host to a Christian Mission which
had become for the purpose of telling
the students why they should believe in
the Christian creed and what such be-
lief means. "
The case for Christianity must begin
with the reasons for accepting the doc-
trine of God's existence. There are
various lines of reasoning that show there
is a God. Sir Isaac Newton, in his
"Principia Methematica", epitomized one
of them when he wrote: -This most ele-
gant system of suns, planets and comets
could only arise from the purpose and
sovereignty of an intelligent and mighty
Ijeing." This proof from design was ex-
piessed differently by Francis Bacon
with the same result; "I had rather be-
lieve all the faibles in the Legend, the
Talmud and the Alcoran than that this
universal frame is without a Mind. And
therefore God never wrought miracles to
convince atheism l>ecause His oi-dinary
works convince it.*' To attribute the uni-
verse to chance is absurd, and to self-
oausation. impossible.
Another proof, more fundamental,
stems from the very idea of causality.
Whatever exists must have a sufficient
reason for its existence either in itself
or in something else. The objects of our
experience have their reason for existence
in other things; they are the effects of
causes as Hart House Is the effect of
builders and an egg is the effect of a
hen. These causes are themselves the
effects of other causes and a chain of
causes and effects can be tra
way back. No matter how fa^*^ ^ ^

OUR READERS WRITE
Black Pot
Editor, The Varsity:
The United States seems to be the
object of growing criticism from Canada,
a trend which emei'ged from obscurity
more than a year ago when General Mac-
Arthui- led his "U.N. policemen" into
North Korea. The recent flood evoked by
Senator Sheehan's proposal to annex Can-
ada, reminds one of the old and oft-
ignored platitudes: "The pot calling the
kettle black," and "Why beholdest thou
the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but
considerest not the beam which is in thine
own eye?"
Indeed, the level of foreign Itnowledge
among Americans is low. but Canadians
can't brag. Certainly we know — or think
we know — more about our "great" south-
em neighbour than they do of us; 'tis
natural that we should. Economically, not
only do they o'ershadow us, but we de-
pend greatly on them for the position we
do hold. From the point of view of popu-
lation, too — which in these days holds
greater political importance than even
wealth, and often, than ability — they
eclipse us. Furthermore, the chief agents
of our "culture": the radio, the r
paper and literature, acquaint us t
small extent with the United Staie^
America.
Despite all this, we know relativelj Ij
about the States, and not mucti u
about Canada. "Who is the Prime i
ister of Canada?" "What is the SiiJ
of Westminster?" Such questions ail
were asked in a test at McGill laill|
If the answers recorded, some i
were quite ludicrous, are an indicato^
the average level of knowledge of o
countiy among our first-year
students, how much lower must I
level among our citizens? Merely t
this is not broadcast to the same e;
as are such events as the American a
tor's proposal, is no proof that w** ;
wise and knowledgeable nation. It ^
the fact that we do not alow our «
many of whom I doubt to be more m
gent than the American SeiiatorsJ
Congressmen, to propose bills freely,
prevents our country from being «
of similar newsworthy events.

Radio Cinch
For U of T
Editor, The Varsily:
We have investigated the existing conditions rele-
vant to the building of a Varsity radio station,
and have obtained from official sources the follow-
ing information:
(1) The obtaining of an AM license will likely
be little more than a formality.
(2) Provided that the Engineering Department
will build the equipment, the costs will be low —
trivial by comparison with the fortune recently
spent on the stadium— used once a week for two
month.s in the year. Surely an important cultural
outlet deserves to be taken as seriously as a foot-
ball field.
(3) As for personnel requirements, there are 200
members interested in dramatics alone. Need we
say more?
The only i-emaining obstacle is the lack of one
room to house a transmitter and studio (a room
30" by 15' would service the puriJose well). There
must be one vacant lecture room in one of the
many colleges on the campus. Or what about the
catacombs of Hart iHouse, the stadium press box,
the new library extension, residences, etc. We per-
sonally think a oollege is the best bet. Lectures
Is kept open for The Varsity in any case. If for a
all day. As the problem ol night caretaklng, UC
could be arranged to leave one small room vacant
newspaper, why not for a radio station? FYom
this standpoint a room in the UC basement would
be the most logical choice. So, as we said in om-
last letter— let those who ai'e interested exi>ress
themiielves.

Even a cursory glance through
Toronto's fourth daily these days
should be enough to convince the
most sceptical that they're after
something more than the under-
graduate soul.
^as it only last week tliat the
Word "bloody" appeared something
like four times on one page of Tbc
Varsity? At the same time, Convoca-
tion Hall was ringing with stirring
phrases about the Blood of the
Lamb. And again today, on The
Boot Page, a Mr. Moritsugu talks of
blood and guts in reference to Liter-
ature. He mentions "bloody," too,
but It's doubtful anyone will read
tliat far. "

plasma for our capitalistic boys in
Korea there's no reason for you to
give it. You'll probably faint at the
first sight of it anyway but that
won't get you out of donating. The
Red Cross (an unfortunate name)
lilces its donors limp. They're easier
to handle that way.
But If yon decide to give ont of
the goodness of your heart there are
a few things you should know,
won't number them because I can't
remember them aU.
Anyway the first thing they do
is take you name and phone number.
This may give you a little confi-
tlence if only in your own identity,
but don't let it make you cocky.
You'll just regret it.
The blood test Is the acid test but
even if you pass It you'll never be
the same. You see, a pretty girl
takes your hand in both of hers.
She's been watching you ever since
you came in, and it might be flat-
tering if you're not used to that sort
of thing.. You may think she's be-
ing romantic when she fondles your
plump little patty, but she Isnt.
She stabs you.
After that It's just one crhiging
defeat after another. A brisk starch-
ed young lady marches you into a
room where a lot of people are
lying around on slabs waiting to
be covered up.
"Which arm?" she asks. And as
you fumble with your arms she
she laughs a merry, thikling laugh
and ties one of them. Then the
veins, which have been standing out
on your forehead, stand out on your
arms. It's not a pretty sight,
The brisk young lady licks her
bottom lip and her eyes dart malic
lously from vein to vein. She picks
one and "plup" you're a donor.
That's all there Is to it.
After a while they let yoa get up
and sneer at the quakhag cowards
coming In to give blood. If snivelling
poltroons like that have any.
Then you can have some coffee.
They give you a lecture on temper-
ance and the good life as It applies
to the rest of the afternoon, too.
Thenj If you feel like It. you can
fly down to Rio.
If you do this 20 times, they give
you a medal. But then, of course,
you'd have to give up smoking en-
tirely. Tobacco makes the blood
lumpy and unpalatable, oc some- ,
thing. I

A national comedy team at the

announced producer Jim Gathro

Negotiations lasting several
weeks with local network officials
have finally been completed, he
said, but because the show is spon-
sored. It Is Impossible to announce
the name of the show until the ac-
tual night of the performance.
Guthro said that the price of
tickets will not change, but that
on the two nights of performance It
may be necessary to cut out a skit
from the All-Varsity Revoe in
order to make time for this special
event. It was also hinted that the
stars of this show would likely be ,

Bums. IV En£. Bus., puts it, "Nobodjr even thinks of taking a coov with,

According to Bums, the noo copies printed should net at least tlSS

For the first time ATL cards are stamped by the Engtoecrlng Socletf

said Jun Allan. Engineering Vice President, and added "The Toike Oik*
should have come out last week, during the campaign. It was one of our
planned efforts to raise money for SHARE, but it was delayed at Ow

UC and Meds Debate
Seats for Universities
Hie question of whether the
major universities in Canada
should have seats in the House of
Commons will be debated in the
UC-Meds Parliament at 8 o'clock
tonight In the Junior Common
Room, Speakers include Lyle
Moran, II Pre-Meds, and BUI Mc-
Rae, I Meds, for Uie government,
and Vem Turner, IV UC, and
Roger Bull, n VC, tor the opposi-
tion.
"We entered Into this debate
with the attitude that here was
just another subject that would
be typical tJC debate material,"
said McRae. "However our research
revealed that here was an imper-
fection in the Cwadian govern-
mental system, a matter of true
importance to the nation at large
and to the University student in
particular, we shall stress the
need for the addition of the inde-
pendent objectivity of the univer-
sity mind to the executive branch
of the government."
The question of representation
of universities in parliament is one
of some standing. British univer-
sities were represented untfl re-
cently, on the principle that each
person should have a vote in th*
area in whlah be did business.
Since this meant Uiat each stu-
dent had two votes, and since tfaqr
usually voted conservative, thta
was abolished by the Labor gor-
emment when they came Into
power. There is some speculatioa
that the Conservative government
will restore this practice.
The question has been much de-
bated in Canada, but the main oth-
jectlon seems to be that it Is un-
fair for the university student !•
have two votes.

bate with the representatives dC
. . . uhh . . . Meds. I think. I am
sure that the general tone of ttw
Parliament will be serious and
scholarly, befitting such an im-
portant occasion. These remarks to
the casual observer may seem
meaningless but my colleague and
I hope to reveal the substance be-
hind them this evening," said o^
position speaker Turner.
Campus Blood Donor Drive
Starts With Sirens' Serenade
students hearing sirens aroimd
the campus yesterday need not be
alMroed. It was only the fanfare
for the opening of the blood donor
campaign, which will last until
February 1.
From 12 noon to 2 pjn., every day
this week, there will be a Red Cross
worker sitting behind a table In the
lobby at the main entrance of Hart
Hause, waiting for would-be blood
donors.
About forty-rive made appoint-
ments yesterday, which was the first
day of the drive. The cards to be
filled out for appointments have
been given out to representatives of
each year in the different faculties,
and will be distributed to the stu-
dents. They are to be collected and
taken to the SAC office in Hart
House every day. Women can pick
up cards at the Women's SAC Office
In the basement of University
College.
Everyone who fUis out one of
these cards wUZ receive a letter from
the Red Cross Society, conflitning
the receipt of the card and the time
of the appointment. He will also get
a phone call ofiprQKlmately every
three months, askli^ him to come
down and give another pint. Special
pins are given after t^e third, fifth,
tenth and twentieth donations.
The blood donor eUnle is in ttie
Old Hospital for Sick Children, at
College and Elizabeth Streets. Stu-
dents are fisked to enter the build-
ing by the first door south of
College, on Elizabeth. There an a
number of signs around to guide
them.
The clinic Is open on Tuesdays,
12:00 to 3:00 pJn., and from 6:00 to
7:30 pjn., and on Thursdays from
2:30 to 4:30 pJn. and from 7:00 to
8:00 pjn. It will not be open on
Thursday, Febrtiary 14, however. If
necessary, it will be open from 12:00
to 4:30 pjn. on Friday, February 8;
Monday, Februairy 11, and Friday,
February 15.
The length of time between
arrival and departure from the
clinic is approximately half an hour.
This includes waiting, while drink-
ing coke or fruit juice, taking the
haetnogiobin test, actually giving the
blood, and resting for ten minutes.
If the haemoglobin test shows some-
one to be too anaemic or tired, he Is
not allowed to give blood. ThB tkae

Inter-Hillel Conference
Debates On Reparations
The final session of the Inter-
Hi'#il Coaference last weekend in
Montreal was devoted to the Inter-
Hillel Debates. Bert Bloom and Ben
Bchlesinger debated for Toronto
Hillel on the topic "Resolved that
world Jewry endorses a proEram of
negotiatUiB with Germany for re-
parations." Danny Usher and Len
Cohen from McGlll had the af-
Jlrmative.
Danny Usher, first speaker for the
iJfirmatlve, stated that reparations
did not constitute forgiveness, but
Justice. "The robbca- must not keep
bis booty, even if he is a murderer.
The Nazis have left us a DP. legacy
of cripples; these cripples are an
economic burden, and must be paid
lor." He then cited the case of King
Ahftb who arranged Naboth's death
to obtain possession of the vineyard;
tut the prophet Elijah warned, "Wilt
thou murder, and Inherit too?"
Bert Bloom, the first speaker for
negative enquired as to the ability
of the German people to pay these
reparations, and their willingness to
carry out the program. He stated
that, as total property losses amount
to four billion dollars, and Germany
could only pay ♦I? million now,
■reparatlMis would be a haggling In
the market-place over ttie corpses
- of six million people. Adenhauer Is
painting a picture of Germany
representing itself as willing re-
pentents before &ie world," he con-
cluded.
Lenny Cohen, second affirmative
speaker, felt that the Jews are not
in a position to engage in declining
luxuries. "This money would allev-
iate a stress not equalled hi England
In her darkest days."
Germany is recovering the Ruhr
valley, he continued, "and is cap-

Cambridge, Mass. (Exchange) —
Harvard men are suffering from the

for
balcony viewpoint
By FRANK MOBITSUOU
Some of the boys think that the decline of
western civilization can be blamed on one thing:
the American woman now has tiie upper hand.
If you worry yourself about this state of affa^
you prdbably won't appreciate WESTWAHO THE
WOMEN (Loew'6). But the rest of us should like
it fine.
For WESTWAKD THiE WOMEN tells liow a
band of women conquered the dangerotis trail to
California in 1851, by mule train and covered wag-
on. ,
The women are prospective brides for a western
valleyful to men. and desert heat, Indians, floods
or mountainous passes arent going to stop them,
by gum. The male guiding party, headed by rug-
ged virUe, unshaven Robert Taylor, finally
dwindles down to two: Taylor and Japanese coot
Ito (Henry Nakamura). The other men fall prey
to Indians, desert the train or are disciplined.
Taylor's method of seeping the men away from
the women; he dwots the men.
So it Is the women, over 120 of them, who have
to grit their teeth and shed their petticoats to do
man's work. They drive wagons, pitch camp, fight
off Indians, and conquer mountains and desert.
There are a variance of types among the women,
of course. Denise Darcel, who has enormous shoul-
ders, is a shac^ lady who wants a change. She
and Taylor begin to hate each other, and lash
each other verbally or physically. So naturally, all
falls Into place, and they line up at the end to be
hitched just like the rest. Hope Emerson is a big
stern New England widow who talks a sea-going
jargon. She is novel, but still a stereotype of a
character. But it is a happy thing they did not cast
Marjorie Main for the part. There are others: two
blondes who are crack shots and excellent miile
drivers, a pregnant schoolteacher who has her
baby in the desert, an Italian immigrant with her
young son.
WESTWARD THE WOMEN is the product of
three talents, producer Dore S<^ary, director Wil-
liam Wellman, and writer (in this case) Frank
Capra. Schary is the successful producer and head
of MGM who believes in the compromise between
Message and Entertainment. So you get the docu-
mentary veneer of the westward trek, the insis-
tence on langoiage usage by the Italian, the Japan-
ese and the French. You also get the stereotype
characters, which may partly be the Capra touch.
Capra is the master of heart-tugging American
hokum. There are large doses of It here, e.g., the
death of the Italian boy, and the resulting empti-
ness in the lives of the mother and the pet dog.
You know that there will be replacements to make
up for the losses, and there are. Wellman Is more
successful with this fUm than he was with
ACROSS THE WIDE MISSOURI, another off-
beat "message" western by the same studio. His
pictorial love for the wide-sweep of pioneer cowi.
try is well-integrated here, perhaps because thg
Capra story is more coherent. One shot of the wag.
ons and the women making their way across the
wiiite hot desert is a beautiful study o£ black and
white.
Technicolor -was not used for WiESTWAiRD THE
WOMEN. This was an Intelligent decisiwi; there
is no lipstick or artificial coloring on the weather-
beaten faces of the women. Beauty and glamor
come from natural attributes in this film; my
goodness, life in the raw I
The new Hollywood concern with the facts ot
life go even further than no makeup. Tastefully
if sometimes melodramaticaUy, rape, man's hung-
er for women, and birth In the desert are present-
ed directly, not by coy innuendo.
WESTWARD THE WOMEN is not particularly
origiinal, but it Is good entertainment expertly
done. One question deserves to be asked though,
especially since the veneer is of authenticity:
where does Ito, ttie Jaipanese cook, come from? In
1851, Japanese in America were very few. Com-
modore Peary did not open up Japan until 1853,
But Nakamura, who was the awkward 'tookie in
GO FOR BROKE, helps things a lot, by mugging
and pratfalls, to make up for the high serious-
ness of rugged "Buck" Taylor, temporary miso-
gynist.
ANOTHER MAN'S POISON (University) stars
Bette Davis and Gary Merrill, who were last seen
together In the very good Ali ABOUT EVE But
stars don't mean a heck of a lot, it seems, if the
story is no good. ANOTHER MAN'S POflSON is
a real stinker.
This film was made in England, which gave it
the fine hedge-rowed country batdcground, but
didn't do a thing for its quality. Like many other
Bette Davis efforts, this Is a dark picture. Even
during the day, shadows liu'k everywhere.
But the darkest shadows are under Miss Davjs'
eyes, and we see a lot of them. It aU has to An
with a mystery story writer who looks like Tal-
lulah Bankhead. She kills to get rid of the
plus men in her life, and this leads to one dlfll-
culty after another. Davis emotes heavUy in he^
bluntly stylized way to each crisis. Merrill is an
unshaven refugee from the law who wants to live
in sin with Davis beca\ise It makes things easier
for him all around. She won't have any, and that
makes things difficult too. Emlyn Williams, who
is a good actor often seen in bad pictures, Is a
smooth Nosey Parker. Anthony Steele was also In '
THE WOODEN HORStE.
There isn't much motive for all this except Mia
Davis runs the usual panting, pulsating gamut.
The neat Mister Magoo cartoon in the program
Is hardly strong enough antidote for this dish oi
POISON.

COMMERCE JOURNAL
Unique Magazine
One of the University of To-
ronto's most unique student pub-
lications makes its annual debut
to the campus today. The Com-
merce Journal is possibly the only
student publication on the cam-
pus wholly financed by its own
revenues and with a circulation
off the campus considerably ex-
ceedhig its student sales. In con-
tinuous publication for twenty
years. It has steadily gained rec-
ognition both in the business and
academic worlds as University of
Toronto's "miniature magazine of
management", disclosed Editor
Mel Wattius.
This year's Issue contains four
teen articles, largely written by
prominent men off the campus.
' Featured is an article by W. F,
Lougheed, economist in the Cana-
dian Bank of Commerce, on the
taxation of capital gains, Paul G,
Hoffman of international repute
Is the outstanding contributor with
his article on the relief of world
tensions. Dr. H. M. McLuhan,
author of "The Mechanical Bride:
Folklore of Industrial Man" has
contributed a provocative study of
modem day advertising as a
magical Institution.
Thor Hansen, responsible for the
design of the interior of the new
B-A Oil Building, asks the ques-
tion, Ts There a Place for Cana-
dian Polk Art in Modern Com-
merce?" and concludes that there
are great commercial opportuni-
ties in this so-far neglected field.
The story of Alcan's Kitlmat de-
velopment in British Columbia Is
an Inside story of expanding en-
terprise written by the Vice-
President in charge of tliis de-
velopment; E. B. Jolliffe urges
immediate adoption of a policy of
conservation of the world's waning
resources; and Ira G. Needles,
President of B. F. Goodrich Rub-
ber examines & pertinent problem
of today in his article on "Fight-
ing Inflation In a Free Society".
Watkins pron^d that this year's
cover would once more be a break
with the "staid and conservative"
ones of the'4>ast.
The Journal will appear on ih9
campus at the Commerce Club
luncheon at 1:00 tomorrow — an
earlier date than It usually rolls off
the press. Students may inspect
and purchase at the Economics
Building or at the University Prea
Bookstore.

This frightening vista faces Trinity students who have
struggled to the top of the stairs and grasp the rail for sup-
port. Come spring, and the dizzy height may seem tempting
to star crossed students — whether their problems are am-
orous or scholastic. The Varsity cannot guarantee that this
picture is printed right side up.
ew Citizens' Art
Featured In Show
A collection of over 100 paintings
by new Canadians from Lithuania,
Prance. Madagascar, Austria, Den-
mark, Germany, Russia, the United
States, and other foreign countries
will be the next exhibit on at Hart
House, according to Dave Gardner,
assistant to the Warden. Gardner
says that this exhibit will only be
shown in Toronto at Hart House
and should be one of the most im-
pressive hung this year.
The exhibition, which will be
shown for two weeks starting next
Monday, was chosen from about 300
paintings by artists who have come
to live in Canada since September
2, 1945. The artists came from 20
countries in Europe, Asia, Africa
and America .
Some of the artists are profes-
sionals who had achieved recogni-
tion in their own lands before
either political or economic events
prompted them to seek a new life
in Canada. Others were amateurs-
students, housewives, office workers,
designers, an ambassador, and a
member of one of the ruling fami-
lies of Europe.

Edmonton (CUP) — The second
sta^ge in the University of Alberta's'
student imion plans has been
shelved for the time being. At a
recent meeting of the student coun-
cil, it was decided not to press for
the $1,015,000 needed to erect the
second stage of the union whicdi
has already cost over $1,000,000.
It was felt by the members of the
council that neither the Board of
Governors of the University nor the
provincial government which, It is
hoped, -will supply the funds for the
second stage, would support the
scheme at the present time. One
building is already being construct-
ed and another planned for the
near future on the Edmonton
campus.
Though, It wa3 suggested thai
money be raised either by an la-
crease in fees or public subscription
as well as by direct appeal to tlw
goverrment, none of tliese metliodj
were deemed advisable at ttiis tlma.
The public has already contributed
a large amount to provide furnish-
ings for the present building.
The council resolved, however, thai
the bmldlns should be constructed
as soon as possible and that a prior-
ity be obtained from the Board ot
Governors that St^i^e Two of tii»
Student Union will be considered a»

attention. One fascinating side-

two sisters six times. Every time
he married one of the girls, he had
an affah- with her sister, and in
order to keep his babies legitimate,
he married and divorced each ot

from one situation to another.
There is very little dialogue, but ,
a good deal of excellent descrip-

bination of these factors makes
some of the quite gory episodes in
the book seem less affairs of pas-
sion than of common sense. If a

relieve him of the burdens of this

Intramural fencing, after four
days of competition, was culminated
by the victory of SPS, but it was not
without a hard fieht. First place In
the epee tournament necessitated a
play-off bout between the two top
men, Lucien Goldenberg and

very disputed match. Goldenberg. of

The sabre competition, fought
yesterday, was won by Goldenberg
over Kovatch. Third was Wagner, a
promising new arrival among the
yarsity fencers.
The overall results, from foil, epee
and sabre, therefore, put L. Gold-
enberg, SPS, ahead; Georges Kov-
atch and Bill Anderson in the sec-
ond and thh-d places respectively.

The University of Toronto women are beating the birds

of the Interfaculty Badminton Tourney. The meet continues
tomorrow with the semi-finals, so if you interested in pick-
ing up a few pointers, go over to Church Street at Hayden
and join the gallery. The form displayed there-in should be
well forth the effort. Ruth Netercott CVic) and Anne Greey
(UC), two of the members of last year's championship team
will be back defending their positions, and they will have
some stiff competition. Daphne Walker, who battled her way
to the Canadian Junior Championship last year, will be vy-

The basketball game last Wednesday night, started the
Senior and Intermediate teams off on, what we hope wiU be,
the road to glory. For the last three years, the Varsity In-
tercoU team has swept the boards. The Bronze Baby is get-
ting to be a permanent fixture here and we'd like to keep it
that way.
A big reason for the Blue teams' successes is coach Mary
Barnet. "Mickey" took over the controls three years ago
and so far has piloted all of her squads to top position. This
year looks like no exception.
The Senior team hasn't been picked yet. but the game
tomorrow against Hamilton Normal School should provide
the answers so that the team can whip inW'^T'ho Vars tv"

Don Fawcetl, U F.H.E., has
scored eishty-two points for the
Blues in Senior competition this
year. Thi3 ranks him as the fourth
highest scorer on the team. Faw-
cett scored sixteen points as the
Blues won their two games over
the weekend. Don, who stands
about 5'8*' and weighs 15S pounds,
came to the Bines from UTS where
he played on the basketball team
there with Doug Reeves and Bill
Corcoran, both of whom are now
on the JV's. Fawcett is probably
the fastest man on the team and
is also the smallest. He is a very
shifty baU-iiandlcr and was a big
help in filling up some of the gaps
on the Senior Blues. He coaches
the Trinity A's, which beat the

Possible, a Student Council was
l^zed in October 1950. Each of
■^Jtoe nationalities participating
the activities had one repre-
[ative on this council. A WUS
staff member was chairman. The
Council met once a week. Unfor-
tunately each national represen-
taUve tried to get the best ad-
vantages for his group, and by
February 1951 the council had be-
come Ineffective. However time
and intelligent leadership may
overcome these national egotisms.
It is hoped a more successful coun-
cil will be formed in the future.
Another practical advantage ob-
tained by the students was the,
noon mensa. Substantial meals, atl
one- fifth the usual cost, were^
provided each week day. About 165'
students took advantage of this,
chance to stretch out their meagre"
funds. ;
Chances to prepare for a future
in a country like Canada or the
U.S.A. are made available to thesp
students. Four times weekly les-
sons in English helped to prepare
one group for emigration. Emigra-|fe=
tion schemes on scholajships and f-.
campus job assurances, have been *
created.
By April, 1951, it appeared that;

could he discontinued as the num-
ber of needy students had been
reduced to 70. However, because

Snell's singing (in German

passage one could hear the whole
chord of F major at once ringing
from the rafters.
Victor Wliite in his role as Wen-
ceslaus, the young lad of retarded
intellectual development, almost
stole the show with his genuinely
funny singing in the second part of
the concert. The sextet "Think It

most tragic aria presented some
of the other, more wistful aspects
of 'The Bartered Bride."

The following is the second in a series of articles on
Christianity in which the author, Stephen Somerville,
III St. Mike's, shows that religion is a CMidition of
man's sanity.
.Qftoon by Hugh Nibfock
The physical universe shows to our reason that
It must have an intelligent and purposive Cause.
Our own human nature testifies to the existence
ofra moral order, over and above the physical or-
der. We have the consciousness of right and wrong,
of an inner law commanding us to do good and
avoid evil.
"We hear the voice of Conscience which we may
obey or disobey, and if there are men in whom
It is silenced we regard them as inhuman. We
honour as heroes men who sacrifice their lives for
the sake of duty. We suffer remorse when we
have done wrong even though we have profited
from the wrong and, because of its secrecy, we
cannot be called to account for it by our fellow-
men.
The general fact of Conscience, of perception
of a difference between right and wrong, is unde-
niable. It is not affected by the fallibility of in-
dividual consciences, by different beliefs as to the
Tightness and wrongness of particular actions.
Men may misapprehend moral as well as physical
laws; they may progress, or retrogress, in the
knowledge of the ones or the others, but the real-
ity of the laws does not depend on himian knowl-
edge or ignorance.
Atheistic theories of how moral consciousness
has evolved may be more or less plausible explan-
ations of actual psychological states but they
caimot explain the sense of obligation except by
reducing it to an illusion. But this is denying the
evidence of consciousness which is the one kind
of evidence we carmot but accept.
The religious doctrine of God as our Creator,
Sovereign and Judge, offers an adequate explan-
ation of the imperatives of the Moral ■
the voice of conscience. Man eis a m^,
is inexplica.ble if God does not exist. ^
Moreover, man is not only a moral beiu
also a religious being. He has a natural it^'
worship something greater than himself, tj
that he is not his own end but that h
serve some end beyond himself. When h
from God he sets up some other object
ship: Nationalism, Racism, Communis^ ^
not. Religion in the sense of offering hono^j'
sacrifice to higher and mystical powers is
stant a fact in human history as any i^
that can be named. The varied species ol
some of them degraded and degrading,
the constancy of the genus.

President's Report (1)
Ciceros Wanted?
The President's Annual Report has revealed some omin-
ous facts and made more than a few disquietening observa-
tions. From the incredibly high failure rate to the inordin-
ately low circulation of library books, from the necessity of
instituting remedial English classes to the lack of adequate
residence facilities, it would appear that all is not entirely
well in the hallowed halls of the holy place.
Indeed, the President cannot offer a very cheerful an-
swer to his own penetrating question, "Are we of .the Uni-
versity of Toronto discharging adequately that inescapable
responsibility (of exerting a spiritual and moral force on the
community at large) ?"
The answer would seem to be a guarded and qualified
•*no." At least, it seems that the university could be much
improved— to say nothing of the high schools.
The President suggests that the faculty should take a
closer look at their own teaching techniques, that "lecture
notes, sometimes unrevised from year to year or from dec-
ade to decade" are something less than inspiring. This is fol- ^
lowed by Professor Gilbreth*s analysis of lecturing in which ysis of the concept
"tlie mind of the lecturer must be 'en rapport* with that of mt. Gatt has given us an ex-

What if the lectures are read? Is it not preferable to
ensure that the material presented is of first rate calibre?
Need students be subjected to a series of superficial observa-
tions by a man who is better fitted to express himself by
means of written notes?
And when all the defences for unstimulating lectures,
either written or off the cuff, are presented, the stucVmt
may still feel that they are largely a waste of time. Which,
of course, many of them are.
Dr. B. K. Sandwell once observed that the freedom to
choose whether or not to attend lectures was the greatest
in that the fonmer has an emo-
tional significance while the lat-
ter does not.
I believe that the concept of
God is not a good one to hold,
hecause the term implies that, as
people, we do not have faculties
for understanding everything, and
in this way it slows down the
progress of science. It may be
true that we are incapable of im-
derstanding all. Perhaps the
limitations of our senses and of
the size of our brain, limits what
we are capable of understanding.
I would like to point out an ex-
ample of where we have over-
come the inability of our senses
to observe. With the invention of
the microscope, we can now study
organisms which we previously
©ould not observe. There is no
proof that we will always be able
to compensate for the inability
of our senses to observe things In
such a manner, and similarly
there is no proof to the contrary.
But, OS I have said before, to ac-

It la from this basis that we can

that we cannot fully answer.

considerable degree of discrimination in their choice of lec- ^ ^
tares — more than they seem to do at present.
If such dscrimination were practised, then the necessity
for improving the nature of lectures would not arise. Stu-
dents would simply resort to books for their education, with
«n occasional shot in the arm from an exceptional lecture.
There is more than a little danger in consulting the new-
est techniques of education. That is the sort of thing that
the Ontario College of Education is preoccupied with— and
look at the state of secondary school education.

THE VARSITY
VOL. LXXI NO. 72 THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO Wednesday, January 30, 1952
Average Library Use
Halved In 12 Years
A Presidential Committee to
study tlie present state, and to pro-
pect the future role .of the humani
ties in the University of Toronto
was set up last November by Presi-
dent Smith.
Members of the Committee are
Principal Bennett of Victoria Col-
lege, Professor Brieger, Head of the
Department of Art and Archaeology,
Professor Goudge of the Philosophy
Department, Dean Innis of the
School of Graduate Studies, Prin
clpal Jeanneret of University Col
Ex-Staffer
McCarthy's
Latest Red
An ex-Toronto faculty memtoer is
the latest man to be singled out by
American Senator Joseph McCar-
thy as a former Communist. He is
Dr. Philleo Nosh, now a White
House advisor on minority affairs
and formerly on the staff of the
University and Royal Ontario Mu-
seum from 1938 to 1940.
McCarthy HUd his reports in-
cluded a charge that "In the early
IMO's, parts of the Communist spy
ring in Canada used his (Nash's)
home in Toronto aa a point to
rendezvous, some of them living
there."
Present staff memhers, who were
associated with Nash during his
stay here, say they knew nothing
which would stamp him as a Com-
munist. "We knew he had left-
wing tendencies," Prof. T. F. Mc-
Ilwraith. head of the Department
of Anthropology, said last night,
"but they were certainly not ex-
treme or out of the ordinary."
7. Could more study of the humani-
ties be required in the professional
schools?"
Hhe report states "I have often
declared and I reaffirm the view,
that the federated structure of the
University of Toronto provides
sources of strength not aviiilable in
unitai7 institutions of higher learn-
ing. It may be, however, that the
dispersion of courses among four
Arts Colleges has weakened the Hu-
manities in this University." . . .
'In the hope of finding a remedy
for this situation, and of securing
for the humanities, in fact, the pre-
cedence which they warrant in
theoiy, I have established a oom-
mittoe. . . -
The average Toronto student lasl
year took less than haU as many
books out of the University Ubra^
aa he did 12 years before. And re-
cent figures show a steady per cap-
ita drop in the use of Library books
ever since the Second World War
ended.
That's the trend in the Main
Library's circulation shown by tho
Librarians annual report, recently
relea.sed by Simcoe Hall.
And Librarian W. S. WaUace puts
a share of the blame on extra-
curricular activities.
in the 1938-39 session, the aver-
age student took 40.1 books per
year out of the Main Library last
year he used only 19.2. Since the
war average student use has drop-
ped from 28 books a year in tha
1946-7 session, to 20.7 (I9«-9) to
last year's low.
However, today's student is read-
ing more than his father did: twen-
years ago the average student
tot* out only 12.3 books. At that
time library facilities were much
less than today: in the Librarian's
report for that session he reports
the future opening of "two new
reading-rooms".
In his report. Dr. WaUace sug-
gaste that part of the drop last year
was caused by the winter's influen-
za epidemic.
But he adds there is no way of
fcicaping the fact that Uie under-
graduate of today is reading less
tiian the undergraduate of 1938-9.
PosHlbLe reasons for the drop. In
reading suggested-"by Dr. Wallace
are that transportation difficulties
ia Toronto have reduced attend-
ance at the Ubrary, and that "bha
general feeling of unrest in tha

tude of undergraduates toward!

"But I cannot help feeling that
one factor In the declining circula-
tion of books is the growth of ex-
tra-curricular activities in the Uni-
versity." he addA
Several students sugg^ted yu-
terday that one possible reason for
the drop was that students may bo
buying more of their own books,
instead of using the Library's. Tha
use of pocket books in many-
courses increased this tendency,
they pointed but.
Dr. Wallace qualified Ills circula-
tion figures by pointing out they
do not include the 32.000 reference
books in the Main Library, nor tha
inter-library loans, which totalled
almost 3.000 last year.
Nor do they take into account tho
"very considerable" circulation of
books in many of the departmental
libraries, he added.
Figures given by tlie Llbrarlaa
for undergraduate use of Llbrarr
books were 65,708 (in 1921-2) 319,-

The orchestra is half eomposcd of

It's diflicult to drill and drill, be-

Ttkc n umerlcaUy -smaller crehestra
and cJioms Is a problem another
talented young man has some opm-
lons about. Jim Gothro, producer t)f
the All-Varsity Revue, sees the cam-
pus musically at a very low ebb.
**We have the mosieians, and our
standards should be of ttie h^hest.
But most of the professionals are
out playing for money. Those who
are not interested In the Symphony
Orchestra won't waste their time
on small shows. The solution is to
push something, like the AVR, on
a large scale, where they can find
a worthwhile outlet lor musical,
acttog, singing and writing talents."
Jim is against the idea of many
small college and faculty shows.
"The show at the University of

Originally the music director of
the AVR, Jim took over the pro-
duction reins when the original pro-
ducer resigned. "1 wanted to see
that there was a show, and a sood
one. If It failed now, it would be
gone lor good," As far a& the con-
troversy about professional direct-
ors is concerned, Jim sees no need

"If you can establish a tradition

is economising -to offset the rise in
prices and the advertising in The
Varsity. "We'll break even— and we
could have made a profit."
Jim started playing the trumpet
when he was laid up after an ac-
eident. In his four years with the
Air Force, he played in bands. He
studied under John Welnswelg, the
Canadian composer, and then, en-
tered the Faculty of Music. "DVA
said I wa^nt suitable," he remem-
bers. So he had to pay his own way.
His success in his course (he is
now at OCE) and in extra-curricular
musical activities proves how wrong
DVA can he.
Like Keith Jim plays off the cam-
pus to earn money. He writes some
music for symphony oroheatras, and
plays with popular outfits like Mart
Kenney to support himself and his
wife. Last summer he played with
the Royal York Hotel orchestra.
Jim's compos^iig cs.jreer is a varied
and impressive one. He writes dance
band arrangements and has writ-
ten some and arranged most of
the songs for the AVR. The Uni-
versity of Toronto Symphony Or-
estra and the Hamilton Civic Or-
chestra have each performed his
composition "Amnesia". He has
written experimental music for small
groups, and orchestrated a 20-
minute score for the Canadian
Ballet Festival.

of talks on "The Nature and the
Attainment of Peace", B. Mickle-
burgh. Public Relations Director
of the Canadian Peace Congress
and editor of the Peace Review,
claimed yesterday la West Hall.
UC, that "public opinion Is the
only force , which can bring about
the end to the scourge of war". He
said that the World Council of
Peace and the Canadian Peace
Congress both believed that wars
were man-made and that wars
could be stopped by men.
The topic of 'Miclielburgh's speech
was "Peace is In Our Hands" and
the series has been organized by
the Political Commission of the
Student Christian "Movement. R. G.
Oavell of the Canadian Colombo
Plan and Mrc. Ursula Nlebuhr rep-
resenting the Church have al-
ready spoken.
Mickelburgh stated that the aim
of the Peace Councils was to bring
together the millions of people who
desire to repulse war. ""There is no
common ideology, no common
philosophy, no common religion.
In the World Council of Peace," he
continued, only a common desire
to prevent war.

that if such a unity of public opin-
ion could be organized "It would

Komsomol Pravda said that at ai,
student meeting attended by 500 S
students, 497 voted to invite a.
delegation of Soviet students to
Canada. iThe Russian, paper was
referring to a general vote taken
at McGill last fall.) "In many
Canadian Universities discussions
aro' going on which clearly show
a tremendous desire among Cana-
dian students to establish co-
operation with the youth of the
Soviet Union," the Young Com-
munist League paper said.
So far 13 Canadian Universities
have supported the principle of a
Russian student visit, while three
have turned, in negative votes.
The question of a Rus.^ian visit
originated at Warsaw when Denis
Lazure. then International Affairs
Chairman of NPCUS discussed a
possible exchange of Canadian stu-
dents with Russian students at-
tending the Warsaw Conference.
When Lazure's proposal was raised
at the NFCUS conference in Lon-
don last fall it was defeated by a
vote of 12 to 6.
Because of the number of Cana-
dian Universities which -passed
favorable votes for a Russian visit,
the national executive of NFCUS
has decided to discuss the matter
at their next meeting In Febru-
ary.
On the Toronto campus, the Ex-
ternal Affairs Commission of the
SAC decided last October to ask
for discussion of the proposed Rus-
sian and Canadian student ex-
change. After a month of discus-
sion, the principle of a Russian
visit was approved by a vote of 14
to 4 in a meeting of the SAC. Thi.s
closed the discussion of the visit on
the campus and Toronto became
one of the first Canadian univer-
sities to support the idea after the
profjosal had been killed at Lon-
don.

of The Varrity, "the ktod of public-
ity we couldnt buy to a very proli-
tic mai^et."
As an example of poor public
rations, Mr. Watson said that his
con4>any oace dcmated $10,000 to a
hospital building campaign. He
phoned the office of the chairman
of the cunpalgn, who was also
manager of a firm, three times on
three foDowlng days unsuccessfully,
even though he told the secretary
each day why he wanted to speak
to the chairman. Finally, it took a
letter and a $2,000 cheque to make
the manager get to tou(ii with him.
Being curious about the com-
pany, Mr. Watson "contacted"
salesmen and other people who
dealt with the company, and each
time got the answer, "Oh, that out-
fit! Well, If you want an artistic
bruahoff, just call on them."
Schools Set Rules
Destroy Initiative
In Students: Goug
"Modem architecture bas a
worse battle for recognition now
than thirty years ago," said Bruce
Gough, a well-known American
architect and head of the school
of Architectxire at the University
of Oklahoma, to a group of stu-
dents of this university and local
members of the profession. ' "At
the begtoing of the century modem
architecture had only to compete
with classicaj eclecticism while
now it still has the same to over-
some, a swell as an added handi-
cap of modern eclecticism." he
continued. He say that architects
are not directly to blame for this
modem eclecticism but rather the
schools of architecture that kill
all initiative and creative ability
in the architectural student, by
teaehtog him to design to a style.
The
acfwrding to set rules,
change from the Beaux
of architecture is that
are used as source of ideas^^

Agent To Uncover
A Tale of Intrigue
"Familiar with half a dozen
European languages and posmg as
a native wherever he went, John
Roy Carlson," accordtog to his
publicist, "posed to turn as jwo-
communist, pro-fascist, pro-Arab
nationalist and anti-Jew, and took
and changed color with tocredible
skill in order to learn, first-hand
the activities of political racket-
eers, religious fanatics, and would-
be fuehrers of every description."
Carlson will speak at the Hillel
Foundation this Thursday night
on "Undercover Adventures to
Europe and the Arab World.'*
John Roy Carlson is the pseu-
donym of an American who was
bom to Europe. Carlson is a
graduate of New York University
in joumalism. In 1938 Fortune
magaztoe assigned him to do re-
search an Fascist activities in the
United States. According to Carl-
son this launched him upon his
mission of exposing extremist
groups which would sabotage the
United States' way of life. He is
the author of several books.
During the war Carlson lectured
at U.S. Army camps on how to
recc^nize the propaganda of the
"enemy within". Carlson is a firm
believer to the ultimate triumph
of democracy over all the dark
forces he reveals to his books and
describes this laith as "the faith
of a child".

News Out To Trounce Sports
In Varsity Staff Trophy Classic
"The Pink Hat means the Vie At-Home"

ALUMNI HALL
NO CORSAGES
Rivalry rears its bloody head on
a gymnasium floor next week. The
Varsity's News Staff are going to
show the Sports staff that the
Sportsmen can be beaten at their
own game. The occasion will be
the annual contest for the coveted
and tarnished Porter Trophy, sym-
bolic of sporting supremacy in the
staff of the campus daily.
Frank Moritsugu, a veteran of
all four Porter Trophy clashes,
said yesterday that News would
easily retain the silverware they
took so convincingly last year.
Then the OCE gym was the site
of a truly epic crash in which Walt
Mackenzie and Hugh Niblock led
News to a sound trouncing of the
Sports four in a basketball tilt.
Lining up (or the News team
which will easily keep the Porter
Trophy where it belongs is car-
toonist Hugh (Fancy Dan) Nib-
lock, Rich (Shoulders) Anco, Ches
(Jazzbo) Smith, Jerry Micliigan)
Brown. Sports boasts Mai (Track)
Crawlord, Dave (Dribbles) Roten-
berg, Joe (Stretch) Scanlon, Barry
(Whistle) Thomas, and others.
A new feature for the Porter i
Trophy struggle is the promised
appearance of female hoopstresses
in the game. Both News and Sports
claim to have some women play-
ers to trot out when the situation
get desperate.
The Porter Trophy classic start-
ed lour years ago, when their cub
reporter Bob Dnieper (who may
make a guest appearance at this
year's game) arranged the dona-
tion of a new untarnished trophy
from Mr. Porter. The first clash
was a gridiron game, in which
Sports scored a last-second touch-
down (by fleet Bob Red Jones who
galloped the length of a muddy
field) to take possession of the
Porter cup. There was some com^
plaint from disinterested obserV'
ers that Jones was one of the few
players on the field with cleats.
But this was ruled non sequiter.
Basketball became the game in
the second annual contest, in 1950.
Sports led by John (Buckets) Ken-
nedy and Bruce Macdonald took
an easy victory from New.'

Second National Ballet Showing
Claimed Satisfying, Entertaining
Page Five
The
'^audience
second program of the
National Ballet provides
with an extremely
lis ''(^"i^ng evening. Sandwiched
'^^^ pn the classical "Giselle" and
^^%»nTe modern "Casse-Noisette"
i>* a new number. "Ballet Com-
choreographed by David
Adams.
Act n of "Giselle" received an
.tractive and sensitive interpreta-
* David Adams as AJbrecht
^""'inated the scene with both his
SnR and dramatic ability. In
ffecttve contrast was Lois Smith,
charmingly wistful— although
- -eiimes uncertain — Giselle.
rSia Franca was a precise Queen
t the Wilis, and this precision
JftS mirrored by an excellent corps
ballet,
"Ballet Composite", set to
Bralims' Variations on a Theme of
Uavdn. was interestingly choreo-
S^phed by David Adams. Three
^en in red and four women In
blue danced through a series of
figures which led into each other
jjjtelligently and effortlessly, A
couple of rough spots can be at-
tributed to first-night jitters and
will doubtlessly vanish with prac-
tice.
In tbe second act of "Casse-
Noisette" the company finished off
the evening with a number which
ihould become part of its stan-
dard repertoire. Even the decor,
which hitherto had been Spartan
jj] its plainness, approached the
proper festive air of the piece.
Irene Apine as the Sugar plum
Fairy turned In a particularly de-
lightful performance. As the Nut-
cracker Prince, Jury Gotshalks
ranked not far behind.
In the individual numbers, the
less prominent dancers of the
company displayed talent which
speaks weU for the future. Natalia
Butfco was a sensuous, hip-sway-
ing Arabian lass. Robert Ito and
Brian Macdonald danced the
Chinese Dance in a very amusing
manner.
The Russian Dance showed Earl
Kraul to good advantage. Thfe two
women's groups, the Fairies and
the Candy Canes, were all that one
could have desired in charm and
grace.
This second showing of Celia
Franca's company was completely
satisfying in nearly every respect.
One gets the feeling that too
much reliance is placed on stan-
dard works to attract an audience.
A vigorous group, which this one
certainly is, should not hesitate to
experiment. Let's hope that the
day is not far off when we can see
the Canadian National Ballet per-
form on a full-size stage, comple-
mented by brilliant decor and a
sympathetic orchestra.

Varsity Errs
Blanco Shews
—Not Shows
The Varsity wishes to correct an
impression. In Monday's issue a
double-bill was announced by the
UC Players' Guild. "The Shewing-
Up of Blanco Posnef by G. B.
Shaw, and "The Dog Beneath The
Skin" by W. H. Auden. .
At the time, The Vaxsity was
unaware that when Shaw wrote
tills one-act play <1909> the verb
'show' was usuajly spelled 'shew'.
The staff, therefore. obviously,
thought that the Players' Guild
publicity agent herself had erred,
and had meant to say "The Chew-
ing-Up. etc.," undoubtedly by "The
Dog". (The Varsity printed this,)
What is more, in tbe UC rotunda
is a poster which' seems to say
"The Stewing-Up, etc." Since the
two plays are entirely separate,
"The Dog" could not possibly chew
Blanco Posnet. as Monday's Issue
implied.
Since the plays will be " per-
formed in the UC Women's Onion
Theatre this Thursday at 8:00
p.m., and since UC is the provin-
cial Arts college. Blanco Posnet
will not get stewed, as the poster
in TTC implied.' (Refreshments
suitable to a provincial Arts col-
lege will be served.)
baleonj viewpoint |
By DAVID PEDDIE
Id the words of ite author, Christopher Fry, THE LADY'S NOT
FOR BOT?JJTNG is "a romantic comedy set in the fifteenth century,
more or less, or exacUy". Which leaves the door open for one to say
In all truth, that The Lady is a modern play. It was written just a
few years ago. aitd though it centres around an old 15th century-
type witchhunt, the attitudes and responses of the people to tha
situation in which they find themselve.s are as modern as you and L
The central character, one Thomas Mendip, is just out of the army
—following his nose from pub to pub. and smeUing out damnaUon to
such an extent, that he wants bo be hanged lor having "perpetrated
human nature."
When 1 heard THE LADY'S NOT FOR BURNING last Wednesday
night over the CBC trans-Canada network (but thr^gh the courtesy
of the BBC) it was aU Um clear that Thomas Mendip had just return-
ed from World War H. Perhaps not all too clear, but it never crossed
one's mind that he had been fighting any other war. Ail of whicU
leads one to a position from whence to chastise a fellow critic— by
name, Nathan Cohen— who believes that Christopher Fry's "disinterest
in modern people and modem times ... are defects which can undo
him". I think not. Certainly it taJtes a little imagination to follow
Pry's overpowering and almost vulgar display of. metaphor, but I do
think the people he portrays, their attitudes to life, and his attitude
to them, is modern.
Of course, no sane person would cold-bloodedly try to place each
of the characters in a modern setting— like saying, for instance, that
Thomas Mendip had just returned from "World War II. That is quit*
unnecessary; for as long as the atmosphere, the general t.jne or feel-
ing of the play is conveyed to the audience, Mr. Pry Is perfectly happy.
As he puts it himself in a foreward to the first edition, "It might
be helpful if the producer thinks m terms of light, of inconsistent
April sunshine, of sunset, twilight, and full moon ... the comedy is
a climate of da>mp and dry, of spirit and matter playing April with
each other and the climate is the comedy."
Starring in the BBC production of the play was Alec Clunes— tha
origmal Thomas Mendip— to my mind he was better than the Gielgud
we hear on the commercial recording of THE LADY'S NOT POR
BURNING. There was more strength in his playing, and less of »
tendency to over- dramatize the world-weariness of the hero.
Pamela Brown pUyed the beautiful and not quite genuine witch
Jennet Jourdemayne with seductiveness enough to convince a hundred
lecherous old men, that she really was a witch. The part of the lech-
erous old mayor oif Cool Clary, Hebble Tyson, was taJien by Harcourt
WiUiams.
The other players including these last two were all In the Gielpud
production. Eliot Makeham. the Chaplain, deserves special mention
for his excellent rendering of those lines, "All my friends tell me I
actually exist. And by an act of faith I have c-me to believe them,"
This Sunday we shall have another chance to hear Christopher Pry.
STAGE 52 is presenting A PHOENIX TOO PREQUiEa^T. But of course
this will be done by Toronto radio actors. Let us pray they do not
abuse the example set them last week by the cast of THE LADY'S
NOT POR BURMNG,

TWIN BILL AT MUTUAL TONITE
Fox And Vernon
Return To Blues
There was some good news Irom
the Blues' hockey camp last night,
as Norm Pox and Pete Vemon re-
turned to the line-up. Fox has
been out since the New Year with
twi.^ted knee ligaments, and his
return should add the scormg
punch that the Blue team will
need In their gaci e ag a in s t th e
Carabiiis this Friday.
Vernon was not playing in last
week's tilt witii the McGUl R«d-
xnen as he had a final exam the
next day, but he will be back Fri-
day playing on the line with Al
Conboy and Norm Fox.
Joe Kane, who suffered facial
cnls and a slight concusEion in the
MrGiU contest will not be back for
some time, and his defence slot
will be rilled lor the time being by
Paul Preodereast.
Tl-ie Blues will have to come up
wHh a win in Friday's game in
order to stay in the race for the
Intercollegiate championship. The
Carabins now have a seven point
lead over the third place Varsity
equad, but the Blues have two
games In hand. Laval is now hold-
ing down second slot just two
points ahead of the locals, but the
Quebecols have played two more
con tests.

The UC Intramural basketbaUers
Iiad a good day all around yester-
day as the Pourtlis matched the
UC. Seniors' win with a 39-29 con-
quest of Emmanuel A's. The score
was 20-19 for UC entering the
final period but the Red and White
outscored the Clerics 19-10 in that
frame to win going away. Fuller-
ton tossed in 13 for the winners
while Frame racked up seven. For
Emmanuel Lowery swished 18
pomts, ten of which came in the
second period.
The Minor basketball schedule
wafi as crowded as ever, this be-
ing the peak week in Intramural
competition. The UC Huskies
mushed to a 27-23 triumph over
ni Chemical, but bad to withstand
a late rush by the Skulemen to
come out in front. Treliving led
the Canines with 9 points while
Mowat dropped in 11 for the losers.
Trinity Crumpets ran up a 13-2
first period margin to coast to a
<l-26 win over the Vic Rugby
Quintette. Dyba took time ofi from
his alternoon tea to hoop 18 points
for Trinity with Anderson getting
8 for the Vlcsters.
It was strlctlr no conte>Gt be-
tween PHE B and Trin Orphans as
tlie Biceps Squad humiliated the
pore ill orphans by a 5i>-5 count.
Herbie Tiison netted 12 for PHE
with Richardson and Bewley scor-
ing 11 each.
Hockey activity saw SPS VI shut
out Emmanuel 2-0 and Law
U-ample Med IV 8-0. In the first
game Day and Pinkney fired
second period goals to wrap up
Uie contest for the Engineers. The
second stanzas. Burns scored the
hat trick for the winners with
J - A . Tory and Montgomery gar-
nering two apiece.
In Water Polo St. Mike's B
splashed their way to a 5-0 win
over Dent B. The Medsmen really
had a field day as their Hi's
swamped Arch 9-0, the IV's edged
Dent A 5-4, and the V's took Trin
B 4-2.
The most exciting major b-ball
game of the day saw SPS m nip
Pharmacy A 40-39 despite a 17
point output by McCauley of the
Druggists. Pinkus tossed in six
for ' the losers while Brown and
Danic got 12 and 8 in that order
for winners.
SPS VI looked very impressive
in downing UC VI 50-20. The
Engineers are a team of sky-
scrapers with three men over 6'4"
in height, which always helps.
Patterson topped the SPS scores
with 12 markers with Ottaway
scoring ten and Ojalo seven. Mundy
hooped seven for the Redmen
while Crawford sank a couple of
flukes to amass six points.
In the last game of the day For
B downed Knox A 52-32 as Murray
meshed 19 points and McLelland
16. Winhold was Knox'a best with
14.
HOCKEY
St. Hilda's I showed their super-
ior conditioning yesterday when
they sliutout POT I 5 to 0 in a
noon-hour hockey fracas at the
arena, Physot coach, Don Bark,
had just reorganized his team, cut-
ting the number of forwards from
seven to six, and the girls didn't
seem to be able ta carry the extra
load.
The Trinity girls opened their
their scoring streak in the first
period, when Joan Stirling slipped
one into the Therapists" net. In the
second frame, the Saints increased
the preasure on the fas^fading
P and OT squad, and sank two
counters to make the score 3 to 0.
The Physios tried to rally in the
final stanza, but their attempts
seeimed only half-hearted as com-
pared wth the fresher St. Hilda's
team, and their rushes lost all
their drive by the time they reach-
ed the net. Tlie Trinity ghrls in-
creased their lead when Scotty
Mathews, on a pass from Joan
Stirling, lifted the puck past Phy-
sot goalie, Helen Boston. Molly
Bark got a break-away on a pass
from POT linemate, Mary IjOU
Lyons, but couldn't make it count,
"Ann Ijawson poked the fifth Trin-
ity goal home to end the ga<ne.
Joan Stirlijig was top scorer for
the St. Hilda's team with two goals
and one assist. Heather Macpherson
also turned in a good performance
on the foiTvard line, while defence
Mary Williamson helped goalie El-
sie Bongard in recording a shut-
out. Breta Prederlckson, Molly Bark
and Mary Lou Lyons fought hard
for the Phytots. Margot Flnlay was
outstanding on defence.
VOLLEYBALL
On the volleyball court at the
Lillian Massey gym last night Vtc
n's outiplayed St. Hilda's for a 59-
42 win. Once, at the beginning of
the second half, the Saints threat-
ened to overtakt Vic's 33-17 half-
time lead, but Vic quickly got back
on their feet and held the upiper
hand for the rest of the game.
The Vic girls, whose serving was
their strong point, played a good
defensive game. The steady playing
of Barbara Browne and excellent
spiking by Joan Morrow and Joyce
Graudie helped to spark them on to
victory,
St. Hilda's had trouble keeping
away from the net and the Vic-
sters thus gained a good many extra
points. Jane Gray, for the Saints,
played well from her strategic cen-
tre position. Ann Pepall was also
I outstanding.
Assumption Coll
To Tackle Varsity
The first of several basketball
doubleheaders at the Mutual SL
Arena will take place tonight
with Varsity taking on Assump-
tion and the Jay Vees meeting
the Tri-Bells at 7:30. The Big
Blues seem to have hit thpir stvid**
against Intercollegiate competi-
tion after losing consistently In
exhibition games against Ameri-
can teams. Assumption is lo-
cated in the border town of Wind-
sor, and has also had the advan-
tage of playing teams from across
the line. Assumption beat the
Blues 70-63 early this season in
the onlv meetine of t.h^ twn
squads.

Varsit?.^ Orphans^ hook up with
their toughest opposition In league
play as they square off with the
Nortown Tri-Bells at Mutual
Arena, The game gets underway
at seven-thirty and a large block
of Varsity fans should be on hand.
In their first meeting with the
powerful Tri-Bells the Orphuns
lost 67-60. The game was a run-
away until the closing minutes
when Toronto, sparked by George
Stulac closed the gap. Stulac
scored 21 points during the con-
test. Stulac will be playing to-
night accompanied by such top-
notch players aa Leo Madden.
Jim Russell, Bill Cocoran. and
Jack Garbut.
Tri-bella are expected to have
all their players on hand for the
game. Led by Max Grossman who
hooped 21 in the first encounter,
the Bells should provide a stumb-
ling block to the JV's hopes of
first place. Jack Gray, Paul
Thomas, Umle Cooper, Sharpy
Lltvas and John Braithewaite
will all be playing.
A win lor the Orphuns would
put them on the leader's tail.
Varsity has lost two games to
date; so if they down the unde-
feated leaders they vrill be within
two points of the top rung. This
is the first of the games scheduled
for the big Mutual gym and to-
morrow night will mark the
Orphuns initial look at the floor.

as tl»e Legal Eagles netted four 43 points in the last two games as
goals in each of the first and first-string centre after taking over
from the retired Bud Natanson, has
through dint of corstant practice
made the jump frcin high school
ball to top ranking in Senior Inter-
collegiate in his first year.
He played four ^ea^s of basket-
ball at E^bleolce, thoiigh as a
point-getter he never approached
his 23-polnt effort of last Friday
while in high school. Last spring
after the basketball season, he waa
playing every day in the Hart
House gym, even before he decided
to go to Varsity. He played through-
out the summer, and spent most of
the fall In the gym with a basket-
ball.
Wlien the team started working
out last November, Monnot wa.s
Just another ol the many good
high school stai-s out to make posi-
tions on the team. Accustomed to
using a hook shot almost exclu-
sively in high school, he found him-
self getting tied up pretty thor-
oughly playing with bigger men. In
hi^ first few games he almost in-
variably got two or three foulf.

Redmen Win
In Basketball
Tile Senior UC basketball squad
has finally started to show some
of the class that won them the
Slflon Cup last year. Yesterday
the Redmen roared back In the
third and final period to take a
38-21 decision from the Sr. aps
quintette, after the score had been
tied at 17-aU at the end of the
middle session.
The game was close for the
greater part ol the game as the
two teams traded basket for bas-
ket. Nefsky and Kuzmuchko spark-
ed the UC'ers with eight and seven
markers respectively. It was Kuz-
muchko who led the last minute
drive as all but one of his pomts

teajnmates consider him abtmt the
hardest worker amon^ them.
He soon found he would have to
abandon his hook shot, at least in
small gyms like Hart House, where
he hasn't room to reach out to
make the hook. He learned from
Bud Natanson the Jump-and-push
t^hot which Natanson used so much
last year, and which Ray uses al.
most exclusively now.
He iB enrolled In Engineering
Business. Though approached by
Western with a tentative offer to
go to that college, he decided on
Varsity, mainly because he had al-
ways wanted to take Engineering
and Western has no En^neering
courses. Although he is an Ameri-
can by birth— he was bom in Pitts-
burgh— he never considered attend-
hig University in the States.
LBeb Natanson. he has all the
usual troubles ol the tall man. He
has all his suits made to order.
However, he claims he doesn't need
a special sized bed. He says he has
developed a method of sleeping
cross-ways In bids of normal size.
Of the 105 points he has scored
this season, over half have been
pumped In In the last four games—
64 to be exact. In all respects he
will inevitably be compared with
Natanson. But if his Improvement

been, th* comparison wlU certain-

^ 7 These are some of the ques-
professor John A. Irving dis-
**°^d in a talk yesterday on "The
fSoKicai Interests of Democracy".
'*^^P«or irvins is professor of Eth-
nd social PhUosophy at Victoria.
*^The lhe™« lectnre grew out
- professor Irving's work with the
r nfldiflD Institute of International
iffflirs At the Aimual Conference
h Id in Montreal last June he served
^ chairman of the political round
table- -
■'While the conflict between tihe
TisSR and the Western world is
flMuestionably a game of power
Ijittcs," Professor Irving continued.
\t Is equally an ideological conflict
Jf profound significance for the
future of civilization," he said.- "In
(act ideology is the principal, and in
many respects the only, weapon
whicdi the Soviet Union has relied
m in its struggle with the West."
Tbe speaker emphasized the pow-
erful appeal of Communism In dem-
ocratic countries. "In adopting Com-
munism as its official creed, Russia
has provided herself with an ideo-
jogical weapon that was forged In
the very heart of Western civiliza-
tion, a weapon that can be tossed
back into that civilization sis a iml-
Ter.s!i.l solvait." he said.
. "Is democracy strong enough ideo-
logically to ensure its permanence
in .luch hard-pressed countries as
Grtere, Italy, France, and West
Germany?" he asked. He considered
the ideological interests of demo-
tracy as divided into four categories:
mora!, economic, political, military
Kid strategic.
"Thetr essential moral difference
can only be appreciated in terms of
the Communist doctrine ol the class
itruggle." Professor Irving eaid. He
explained that democracy empha-
sizes first the Idea of freedom . . .
Md individual responsibility, and.
•econd. the idea of e<piallty as the
tore of social Justice.
According to Professor Irving, the
principal ciiallenge of Communism
eonsiste in its emphasis upon the
Increased material welfare of the
less fortunate part of humanity.
■Apart from solving the eraonomic
problems raised by defence and re-
armament, the West must formulate
Just policies for the distribution and
eontrol of critical raw materials
. and must either feed or fight
the impoverished and hungry mil-
hons of Europe and Asia," he said
The spealier pointed out that if
communism derives its strength
from economic appeal, greater
strength can also be derived from
the political appeal of democracy
"Throughout the West there is an
increasing realization that political
freedom would perish under uni-
versal totalitarianism." he said.
Outlining the military problems of
the West. Professor Irving said we"
must strengthen the democracies,
so that Russia will be afraid to risk
war, "But," he added, "what shall it
profit the democracies if they gain
Spahi's naval and air bases and
loose the world-wide battle for the
minds of men?"

Since it is the only school of its

The college is composed of two

Meds Studies Too Specialized
Need More Premedical Years
(Reprinted from The Manitoban)
The doctor of today— a profes-
sional man, or woman as the case
may be— is considered an edu-
cated being. He Is educated so well
in one particular field of endeavor
that often he may have only a
smattering of the knowledge an
"educated" person is said to pos-
sess. A man with a BJl. degree may
not be aibie to use his achievement
to earn a living but by present-day
Standards he is educated.

Winnipeg <CUP)— TTie University

have to withdraw from the Nation-

if It cannot pay the full required
20-cent-per-student fee. The UMSU
council decided In Novetnbei: to cut
the NFCns fee to 10 cents because
of budgetary difficulties, but il fin-
ances permitted at tbe year's end,
tbe full amount would be sent.
Jean de Margerie, NFCUS presi-
dent, sent a letter to Bill Norrie,
XJMKU* president, saying "We can-
not grant you the right to deter-
mine your students' contribution to
NiFCUS", and suggesting that if the

student or recently-graduated M.D. < ■ ■■ . ■ .
The student and Intern are so im-
bued with their work that for the
main part their thoughts are asso
dated with medicine. They think
in terms ol medicine, which is onlj'
natural when you consider the
numljer of hours for five years in
which they hear nothing but ana
tomy, physiology, pathology, sur
ger;', obstetrics, etc. By the time the
doctor lias graduated and begun hts
practice the only history he maj'
know is the case history of Miss X
or Mr. y. and the only branch ol
economics known to him is the fill-
ing-out of an income tax return.
In his pre-graduate studies the
doctor will meet such allies of his
profession as health government
and law ilorensic medicine), but al
ways in some connection with his
work. (He may also meet nurses
but that is after hours.) If the
time can be found between studies
much can be learned by going a bit
farther then what he is taught of
government and law. Careful read-
ing of newspapers is educational
It keeps one informed on current
events, politics, the arts, science,
and government and law. A doctor
does not have to be an authority
on all of these subjects but he can
and should acflulre a workin(
knowledge of some, if not all, of
them. This knowledge he must giaiii
himself.

From contact with his patients,

walks of life, he will develop tol-
erance, mereji, patience and a sym

essary attainments will develop over

scientific subjects. A student who
took a general Arts course and
then entered Medicine would have
the ideal makings of a good doctor,
being both generally educated and
educated for hLs profession.
nie extra year or years of pre-
medical work would of course be an
added expense and would mean
that the doctor would be 26 or 27
instead of 24 or 25 when he grad-
uated. In tiie long run, the extra
year or years would be more bene-
ficial than detrimental. I think
that the University ol Manitoba
has done well In adding a third
year to the pre-medical course,
which, -while incurring more time,
work and money than previously,
will help the doctor-to-be appreci-
ate and be more cognizant of tho«c
ideal£ which are a part of the mak-
ings of a good doctor.
The added pre-medical snb.Vcts
are naturally ideal but I thihk if

The following is the third in a series of articles on Chris-
tianity in which the author, Stephen Somcrville, III SU
Mike's, shows that the witness of history upholds divine
revelation.
Cartoon by Hugh Niblock
By Jingo
flre moral sense and religious instinct in human
nature Incline us to fear and worsliip God as our
Master and Judge. Yet what even a Plato or Aristo-
tle could know of God by natural reason is insufti-
clent tor our needs and the majority ot manicind
are incapable of acquiring -the Itnowledge ol God
by metaphysical inquiry. Hence the intrinsic prob-
ability that God would make known religious and
moral truths by supernatural revelation. There are
Innumerable religions in the world and there are
some tew. like Christianity. Buddhism and Mo-
hammedanism, which by their long duration and
wide extent are specially entitled to considera-
tion.
The arguments for Chrislianily being the true
religion revealed by God, as compared with other
reUgions, are overwhelming. Christianity is the
heir and fulfillment ot Judaism, which was unique
among pre-Christian religions for its monotheism
and higher .morality. The dispersion and survival
ot the Jewish i-ace today are both fulfUments ot
BiWical prophecy. The coming o£ Christ and His'
rejection by His own people arc likewise fulfil-
ments ot prophecy.
The religion of Christ has extended and pre-
vailed in the world He himself prophesied. The
fulfilment is not yet complete because it must
continue through all time. Christianity never
promised its own complete success: it predicted
persecutions, divisions, apostasies, scandals, never-
ending opposition. Yet it promised that it would
even endure and be preached to all nations and
that It would bring Incomparable blessings to man-
kind.

Christianity began as what was regarded as i
fanatical sect in a despised province of the Romao
Empire. Its first converts were among the poor and
ignorant. As soon as it became noticeable ths
powers of the Rcanan Empire were used to theij
utmost to stamp it out. Besides the persecutions
there have always been intellectual attacks in tha
name of philosophy science, Biblical crltician anfl

Christian side there have always been Newtons,

Paul Duval, sri critic for Saturday Nlgrltt, gave a critical discussion on
tfae paintings of John S. Walsh .yesterday in the Hart House Art GaU«y.
depicting city scenes from Montreal, New Y<wk wid Paris. Walsh is
iglisli born, a graduate of London Art School, and has spent a number
years painting industry and city life in bold water colours. Here we
sftc Duval as he gave his talk to the art group where Walsh's work has
been on display for the last week. The showing will ejid this Sunday.
Bari House makes a consistent effort to give the students of the Uni-
tersity of Toronto the best in art shows, and to make it even more com-
plete, the board of stewards ruled that women would be allowed down
the gallery every Wednesday afternoon. The next showing in Hart
House will be paintings by New Canadians — 106 paintings in all.
The controversy between the University of To-
ronto and Osgoode Hall is reported to have been
settled by Dean C. E. Smalley-Baker of Osgoode
Hall, but Dean Cecil Wright of the University Law
School said yesterday that the University is still
seeking to have the inequality between the two
schools removed.
A graduate of the University Law School, ac-
cording to Dean Wright, who entered the school
with a university degree is still required to spend
one more year at Osgoode before being called to the
bar. which means he spends 3 years at University
instead of 2 years at Osgoode.. He said that It
is that inequality which President Smith has
called attention to in his report and it is that
inequality which the Law School and the President
want to see removed.
When President Smith's armual report came out
Monday, Dean Smalley-Baker of Osgoode told one
of the downtown papers that he had not read
the President's Report which stated that "nothing
has happened during the year under review that
would indicate a solution to the problem, . . . The
case of the University must not be lost by mere
fault in pressing our claims." Dean Smalley-Baker
said that the problem was settled nearly three
years ago "by mutual agreement between the
University and Osgoode Hall".
The University does not question the right of
the Law Society of Upper Canada to regulate ad-
mission to the Bar, President Smith said in his
report. He added that "It is a mere statement of
fact to declare that the University of Toronto has
now the strongest staff lor teaching and research
ever assembled in any Canadian law school."
Dean Wright said the university particularly
does not feel that a graduate of the University
Law School should have to do any further aca-
demic work.
He will speak at the next open meeting of the
University College Lit on "Legal education In
Ontario."
The Law School is in the peculiar state of being
fully recognized by the governing bodies of the legal
profession in the other common law provinces
and not being fully recognized in Ontario.
Admission to the Bar in Ontario can be ac-
complished in several ways. A student can work In
a law office for two years and then go to Osgoode
for four years before being called to the Bar by
the Benchers, or he can take four years at Osgoode
after a university degree.
If he chooses to go to the University Law School
he would need a degree or two years in an honor
course before being admitted to the Law School.
He than- would study for three years at the Uni-
versity followed by two more years at Osgoode.
However if he enters tJie Law School before get-
ting a degree, It Is doubtful whether he would be
admitted to Osgoode even with an LLB. Going
back to University for a BA would not solve the
problem as the Benchers of the Law Society specify
that the degree should be obtained before entering
the Law School. Therefore after getting his BA
and his LLB, the student would have to enter first
year Osgoode.
The four years at Osgoode are not all spent
In classrooms. The tliird year and half of the fourth
year are taken up by the time the student spends
under articles, This means that & student at the
University Law School spends three years in aca-
demic work whereas in the four years at Osgoode
the student only completes two and a half years
on academic work.
The University and the Law School are not
seeking t<J have the year spent under articles to a
lawyer abolished, but would like to see the Benchers
(roughly corresponding to an executive! of the
Law Society of Upper Canada remove the year
inequality between the two law schools.

University students, who are married, will be able to take their wives to the rugby

An X-ray is taiten of each pa-
tient's teeth as soon as lie comes
into the clinic, and from this the
final year students learn oral
diagnosis. A special depaitment
wWch is equipped with two X-ray
machines, a processing room, and
a cephalometer. is situated on the
clinic floor. The cephalometer
takes X-rays of the paUent's whole
skull in a certain fixed position,
so that X-rays over several years
are always exactly alike as to po-
sition, and any changes are clear-
ly recognizable. This machine
is used mostly in tlie study of
orthodontics, or dento-facial de-
formities.
Dentistry is aiming at its own ex-
tinction. Prevention, not replace-
ment, is their purpose. By educat-
ing Uie public to seek dental at-
tention while young, dentists will
be able to correct faulty develop-
ment before it is too late. The
new crop of dentists being turned
out by the Dental Faculty insist
they "hate e.xtractlon even more

letic Association is in a sound
financial state, although he added
that there is "quite a debt on the

vising all Varsity games is being
investigated, he said, as the direc-
torate has been approached by
three different groups who are
interested in television rights,
Forestell said that before any deal
was made, there would have to be
a guarantee of a full stadium
every Saturday.
The ruffby season will start one
week earUer next year. Oct. 4th,
instead of the 11th. but he could
not tell the council wliat dates
the rugby games would play on as
a schedule has not yet been re-
ceived from the Intercollegiate

The AthleUc directorate are
studying a new constitution ( the
first major revision since 1929) ac-
cording to Forestell. He said that
it was felt that student represen-
tation on the Direcorate could be
readjused and he specifically men-
tioned the Intramural committee.
New refrigeration pipes are
needed in the arena. Forestell told
the council, and that this neces-
sitated a loan frcoi the Board of

had already lasted five years more
than their expected life.
In reply to a question by Finance

tell said that all profits on the

Trial
and Pinafore
The Victoria College Music
Club's production of "Trial By
Jury" and "HMS Pinafore" was
as sorely troubled by fii'st night
jitters as an^ show I have ever
seen. I came to this conclusion
after sitting through almost
painful .performance of "Trial"
followed by one of 'Pinarore" that
got steadily better and better.
I don't intend to dwell on faulth
that were obviously due to ner-
vousness. Such things as breath-
lessness (almost everybody), hur-
rying (ditto) . singing sharp (in
particular the leading lady in
'•Pinafore") — such things cure
themselves, and weekend audi-
ences won't be bothered by them.
Other things cured tliemselves
even as the fii"st show was in
progress. The acting of the chor-
us, stiff and embarrassed in
Trial", limbered up consnderab-
ly in "Pinafore." Among the
principals. Warren Hughes as
court usher was an aimlessly-
falling, epileptic-looking twpe; in
Pinafore" he turned up as a
truly sophisticated Sir Joseph,
with a careful economy of gesture.
One of tbe points I thought I
would special! remember about
this show was ttie set for "Pina-
fore"—bright, gay. and with a little
extra touch in itself: the brass
bell, put to very amusmg use.

out some of the "excellent work'

"Culture is being poured from a

the Psychology Professor, "let us
not forget that it is only a visual

Chief Explains
Rain Makers'
New Methods
Marie Twain once said that
everybody is always complaining
about ttie weather and no one ever
does anything about it. A speaker
coening to the Royal Canadian In-
stitute on Saturday night Is one
of the modern weather men who
are doing something about the
weather.
Dr. F. W. Reichelderfer, chief of
the UiUted States Weather Bureau,
will describe some of the new
methods being used in meteorology
such as the thunderstorm re
search project conducted at Flor-
ida and Ohio, an 800 ft. cloud
laboratory in an unused mine
shaft, and the experiments being
conducted in cloud nucleation with
dry ice and silver iodide.
He has said that the problems
of weather and climate of great-
est interest relate to the physical
properties of the elements that
compos© the atmosphere, and the
behavior of these elements in the
free air. However Dr. Reichelder-
fer said that the behavior of these
elements in the free air is often
quite different from their be-
havior in the confines of the
laboratory.
According to Dr. Reichelderfer,
the meteorologist can offer only a
general explanation, which is a
description of the circumstances
rather than the understanding of
such wonders as the source of the
electrical discharges which pro-
duce lightning, the origin of the
tornado whose aerodynamic forces
may drive a straw through a steel |
plate, and the thunderstorms and
hurricanes with their cloudbursts
of rain. '
International Students Organiza-
tion (ISO), but in recent years has
been sponsored by the SAC. Hart
House officials felt that since the
CouncU had sponsored the Ball
they were liable for its debts.
Finance Commissioner Trivett ex-
plained.
The Associate Secretary-Treas-
urer, Miss Parkes. explained that
the CouncU sponsored the Inter-
national Ball in order to obtain
the use of Hart House, Campu«
clubs cannot hold dances In tha
House.
"We arc putUog the |56.50 into
accounts receivable," explained
Trivett. "That means it is Just a
loan. There is a reasonable ex-
pectancy we will get it back next
year," he added.
He felt the loss this year was
due mainly to injudicious use of
complimentary tickets, and that
if this were corrected next year ths
Ball would make money. Last year
the dance paid back $100 of money
advanced, he added.
The Council requested that ISO
present a financial account for the
Ball. Trivett also suggested that
should Uie Council sponsor the
Ball next year, an SAC represen-
tative should sit on the planning
committee.
Miss Parkes explained that th«
CouncU had tried to help ISO in
recent years because It was one or-
ganization on the campus which
had no outside backing from
alumni or other groups. Moat of
its members are not Canadian-
bom, she said.
"Tbite years ago the CouncU
recommended that future Coun-
cUs sponsor the International
Ball," she added, it is the only
l.uch organization which tho
Council has sponsored.
ISO is an organization devoted
to two purposes: to help inte-
grate foreign students into the
University and its environments,
and to serve as a common meet-
ing ground for both native and
foreign students.

Law Briefs
The rnlvcrsity ot Toronto School ot Law Club begins with this
bsue of The Varaty, the publication ot a weekly series ot "Law Briefs".
These are desisned to bring to other students some aspects of the
law, and to dispel from their minds notions of mustiness, Inslpidily
and uncompromising rigidity with which the study is allegedly land so
erroneously!) associated.
WHAT'S YOUR VERDICT?
In a heavy storm a thousand miles from shore a yacht sank, and
memtwrs of her crew (Smith, Brown, Jones and a cabin-boy) had to
put out in an open boat. They had no water, except for a few drops
they coukJ- catch when it rained, and their only food -was two pounds
of -turnips and one small turtle which they had caught.
For twelve days they subsisted on these meagre rations. Exposure
too. took its toll, and they grew weaker and weaker day by day. On the
thirteenth day. Smith proposed that one of their number— indicating
the cabin-boy, who was in the worst condition of the four— be sacri-
liced to save the rest, all of whom had families. Brown refused. Their
plight was desperate by the nineteenth day when Smith again proposed
a sacrifice, this time by the drawing of lots. Brown refused.
On the twentieth day, the boy was lying in the bottom of the
boat, extremely weakened by famine and from drinking sea water,
and quite helpless. Smith, with the assent of Jones, killed him.
The three men lived on hi£ flesh and blood for the next four days,
■When they were picked up by a passing ship. They were still alive,
but in the lowest state of prostration.
They were taken to England, where Smith and Jones were indicted
for murder.

Last Freshman Do
For Arts Students
In Orientation Plan
Freshmen from the four Arts
Colleges will have another chance
to become oriented in the fourth
and last of the freshmen tea-
dances tomorrow at 3 : 30 at
Wymilwood . This dance will
give freshmen an opportunity to
get acquainted with freshmen
from other colleges, and with the
faculty and student council mem-
bers of Vic.
The purpose of this series of
dances, according to extra-cur-
ricular Affairs Chairman Charles
Hanley. has been to introduce first
year aitsmen in the different col-
leges to each other, and thus in
the easiest manner to begin in-
telhgent discussion between arts
people from the different colleges.
Although the attendance has been
only fifty or seventy-five people,-
Hanley feels the affairs have defin-
itely been successful. It is dif-
ficult to have any real discussion
or interchange of ideas, with more
than fifty people, he pointed out.
Besides, accommodation has in
some cases restricted attendance.
About forty people ivom the other
colleges are expected tomorrow,
di-awn mostly by personal contact
with the class executives-

Local Rag
Plays Ball
For Trophy
The annual grudge match for
the Porter Trophy, symbolic ol
basketball supremacy between the
news and sports staffs of The
Varsity, will finally be held this
Friday. After some difficulty in
locating a gymnasium for the
game, it was arranged to hold it
in the Victoria College Gymnas-
ium at 2.00 o'clock Friday.
After last year> tliriller in which
the news staff soundly trounced
the sports, it is expected that the
match this year will be a real con-
test, with the new staff trying to
m^ake it two years in a row. The
most colorful feature of last year's
fight was the refereeing. done by
the WUA rep to the SAC. Joan
Eddis, one time women's editor on
The Varsity.
The present lineups for the re-
spective teams include every one
who has ever had his hands on a
bell, or has been in a gymnasium
since he oame to University.
Tall stars, such as Jerry (Mich-
igan) Brown, and Denise (Buffalo
Trip) Richards, will add a lot to
the team'3 strength of the new's
team. Most of the sports team
are much shorter, and will have
thteir own troubles getting those
rebounds. Joe (Stretch) Scanlon
will be the tallest on the team.
Even their star woman. Carol Lo-
gan, will be only five foot two.
If a good impartial judge can
be found, like the one last year
who refereed according to men's
rules she knew nothing about, this
tussle promises to be one of the
sports classic of the half cen-
tury.

The Trinity CoUege Drama Club,
nothing daunted, have decided
that nothing but the best will do.
The great Moliere's most success-
ful comedy, TARTUPFE, is the
play they have chosen Iflr their
big annual production. They are
presenting it five nights next
week starting on Tuesday, Feb.
5th in Hart House Theatre.
The p!ay is under the direction
of Herbert Whittalter. who won the
award for the best production in
last year's Central Ontario Drama
Festival. Whittaker is also drama
critic for The Globe and Mail.
Moliere is acclaimed as the great
comic dramatist of all time, for
not only did he understand the
conventional 'comedy of manners',
but his plays are comedies of
character. The people are at once
very believeable, yet absurdly
funny, and thfse two aspects played
off against each other create a
laughter that is often fringed with
sadness.
Tartuffe is the name of a re-
ligious hypocrite, who wins the
daughter of a rich man of pro-
perty, Orgon. When he is exposed
as a deceitful, self-indulgent man
he is expelled from the house and
thrown in jail. The part of Orgon
was first created and made famous
by Moliere himself, at the Palais
Royal in Paris in 1669.

Theatre Ushers Blush
Tripping Down The Aisle
The usher in any theatre is a
very important and responsible
sort of pei-son. For the usher is
the only member of the company
and the management who comes
into personal contact with the
audience, so that the wawnth
with which a play is received de-
pends often on the way in which
the ushers ushes. If ushing is
done sloppily, then there is an im-
mediate antagonism to things in
general that grips the heart of the
play-goer. Everjthnig is over but
the booing.
Now many people will think
that ushers need not have any
particular aptitude, but of course
they don"t realize the rapid nu-
merical calculations needed to find
how many seats from, the aisle
such-and-such a number is. It
depends entirely on one's knowl-
edge of the invariable variable,
and one's ability to divide a num-

ber by a letter, and come out with
the right seat.
All this is made easier in Hart
House Theatre where seats are
either odd or even, depending on
whether you are right-hand
seated or left-hand-seated. This
arrangement was found to
necessary since almost all Hart
House ushers ai'e recruited from
student ranks. The management of
the theatre realized long ago that
due to dull lectures and inade-
quate high school tralnmg stu-
dents were too poorly equipped to
handle the normal two-handed
ushing procedure.
A few simple rules to be re-
membered by all untried ushers:
1. Never sell the program. If
someone pays, just pretend it's a
tip.
2. When anyone comes in late it
is-^xpected that you will blush for
them. The audience no matter how
boorish must not feel self-con-
scious.

only a 4-4 tie.
Coach Bill Wade will be without

Joe Kane who suffered bead in-
juries in last week's game when he
crashed into the boards and may
be out of ho<Tkey for tlie rest of

The other blueline duo will be Al
Fasan and Jerry Fitzhenry.
Tlie Blues will welcome back to
the line-up Norm Fox and Pete

The high flying intermediate

league game in the intercollegiate
Bchedule. The Junior Varsity
team made a smashing debut here
ft couple of weeks ago when they
gave the Waterloo boys their to the
tune of 15-3. They have won and

tuts.
l.a»t year., the Intermediates
Just managed to salvage a 6-5 vic-
tory over the Aggies. However,
they proved their superiority in
the second game here, winning by
a wide margin.
As far as is known, the Baby
Blues will travel to Guelph with
the same line-up that defeated
Waterloo.
The Orphuns went down
52-44 to the Nortown Tri-
Bells last night, handicapped
by the absence of George Stu-
lac who was swimming in the
West end. The JVs took an
early lead in the first quarter
but after the Bells got start-

iparked by Ray Thomas slowly
gained control. At the end of the
quarter the Nortowners were up
15-9. Bill Cocoran had three per-
sonals called on him in this pertod
forcing Coach White to use him
sparingly the rest of the game.
In the second quarter the JVs
fell apart. It wasn't until the final
thirty seconds that Garbutt scored
a field goal for them. Tri Bells
working from a fast break and a
strong zone defence led by as much
as 27-9 during the disastrous
stanza.
The Orphuns revived in the sec-
ond half. They swapped basket for
basket and closed the gap with
some accui-ate foul shooting. Doug
Kettle swished three one-pointers
in a row after a technical and a
personal were called on Watson.
Tills pulled the JVs within 4 points
of the Bells. Johnny Braithewaite

the score 39-33 at the quarter's

Tlie first of a series of Intercol-
legiate indoor track meets will be
held this Saturday at Hart House,
eommencing at 3 pjn. The guests
iirill be Buffalo Downtown Y. whose
track team is composed mainly of
■tudents at Buffalo State Teachers'
College, with a few additions from
neighbouring colleges such as
Broctoport State, and other ath-
letes.
McMaster wUl likely send over a
group of sprinters to compete in
the short distance events In the
meet as well. If they do, McFar-
lane. the new record holder In the
100-yard dash, will be with them.
Though the actual events to be held

will probably be the 50-yard dash,
100-yard dash. 300. 600, and 1.000
yards, one mile, a medley relay,
and probably a standing broad
jump and a high jump.
A similar meet was held last year,
and was swept by the Varsity ath-
letes 55-22. Tlie 100, not ordinarily
run at indoor meets, was the only
track event won by the Buffalo
team.
Spectators will be admitted free,
and women will be as welcome as
men.
Future track meets have been
scheduled for Toronto's indoor team

team irom McMaster. On Saturday,
February 16, a relay team will be
sent down to Lansing, Michigan, to
enter the Michigan State Relay.s, to
compete with Michigan. Michigan
Stale. Notre Dame, and possibly
Dlinoi.s, Indiana and Iowa, as well
as other colleges in the Michigan
area.
On Saturday, February 23, the
team will compete in the Toronto
Indoor meet, being staged specially
this year as part of a series of
meets being arranged by Canadian
sportsmen In preparation for the
Olympics this simimer.

for a meet with Western here on
the first of March, also a Satur-

its usual trip to Hamilton for the
91st Highlanders' International In-
door meet there .one of the biggest
track meets regularly held in Can-

falo for the local infantry battal-
ion's meet at the Buffalo Armoriee

Interceptions on their long passes
and a general raggedness in their
passing attacks up the floor,
the Blues looked very sharp in
their first game on the big Mutual
Street floor. The Blues journey to
London Sattirday to do battle with
the powerful Western Mustangs.
This game should decide who will
win the intercollegiate ciiampion-
ship this year.
A sparse crowd turned out to
Mutual Arena last night and saw
a scrambly, but good game. The
Purple Raiders put up a good
battle, but seemed tired, as it
was their second game in two
nights. This win avenged an earli-
er defeat Varsity suffered at the
hands of Assumption earlier in the
season. However, the Purple Raid-
ers faced a far lietter team offen-
sively and defensively than they
did then.
The game started off fast, with
Varsity's starting quintet of Faw-
sett, Lukenda, Monnot, Oneschuk
and Huyclce building up a lead of
13 to 7 at quarter time. They built
the score up in fact to 9-0 in the
first few minutes before Assump-
tion scored a point. Pawcett and
Oneschuk are new additions to
the starting line-up, playing more

Hard, close matches highlighted
the girls' inter-faculty badminton
finals held at the Carlton Club
Tuesday and Wednesday. Thirty-
eight entries, the largest number to
date, competed in the tvent.
Daphne Walker, tl.C, Canadian
Junior Champion , emerged tri-
umphant from the fray. An out-
standing player throughout the
tournament. Daphne defeated Eliz-

11-8, 11-6, after downing Daphne
Cross, 11-6, 11-2, in the semi-finals
and Jxme Biggar, 11-5, 11-3, in the
quarter-finals.
In the semifinal lead up, Liz
Russell defeated Ann Greey 11-1,
11-4. Liz also edged Ruth Nether-
cott U-6, 12-10, in the closest
match of the tourney.
As a result of this tournament,
Ruth Nethercott, manager, will
take Daphne Walker, iUizabeth
Russell, Ann Greey and Daphne
Cross to represent Toronto In the
Inter-collegiate matches at Mc-
GiU. They hope to have Joan War-
ren coaching them.
Stan Cutts has been coaching the
McGiU girls for some time now,
and Toronto feels that this will be
the team to beat.
In major league basketball yes-
terday. Dents A and Jr. Vic ran
neck and neck for three periods
with the Dentists, finally coming
out on top of a 32-31 score. The
winners showed a well-balanced

Tovell got 10 and Dyalad 7.
In the minor loop, Music rolled

The Varsity Women's Intercol-

a 26 to 25 win over Hamilton Nor-

night, by the skin of their beau-
tiful teeth. The Hamilton team
checked the Blues static, and fer-
reted passes that had the Blue-
bells guessing until the final sec-
onds of play.
In the first quarter, the Var-
sity squad gained an 8 to 6 lead,
but the Hamilton teachers closed
in on the Varsity net in the sec-
ond frame, swishing the string
for twelve points.
Alma Hatch pulled the Blue
team out of the doldrums early in
the third stanza, when she di'opped
clear shot through the Green

took up the battle from there and
boosted the Blues' score up four

St. Mike's A's, last year's inter

day showed their prowess as they
trounced Sr. Meds, 35-17. The Medi-
cine Men managed to hold the dou-
ble blue squad to a 21-15 lead at
the end of the second period but
the Irish ran wild in the last ses-
sion to win easily. They rattled off
ten straight points with no reply In
the third to wrap up the win.

last year, was high man for the
Mikemen with 10 points. O'Connor

Vic Win Again
Beat UQ 4-1
By JERRY HOLLTER
It was Red and Gold aU the way
yesterday, when the league -leading
Sr. Vic squad downed the U.C. cel-
lar-dwellers, 4-1. The Victoria sex-
tet outskated, outshot, outscored
and outplayed a hard-trying but
mico-ordfnated U.C. team. PuUer-
ton, one of the best men on the ice,
pulled back to defense for this
game, tried several times to instill
some life into 'ttie faltering UjC.
squad, but lacked the support of
his teammates.
Vic first notched the tninc on an
unassisted effort toy Andrews, when
he backhanded one from just in-
side the blueUne. Scarcely three
minutes had ticked by when Gibson
sank Vic's second tally after a goal-
mouth scramble. Before the first
frame ended, centre-man White,
one of the squad's smoothest skat-
ers, and incidentally one of the
hardest back-checkers on the team,
came up with a slap-shot from a
wide angle that put the Red and
Gold ahead 3-0. The only penalty
of tlie period went to McParlane of
U.C. for tripping.
In the final stanza, the play
evened out coixsiderably, both teams
scoring only once, although Vic
still held the edge in both skating
and shots on goal. Stother scored
the Vic goal after some poor clear-
ing left the puck free in a goal-
mouth melee, U.C.'s lone tally came
from the stick of Bill Bewley. who
has one of the league's hardest
shots and made no mistake on a
blazing shot from the blue-line. Vic
were penalized once when Stothers
was ousted early in the period for
cross-checking.

quarter and it looked as thou^ii
the Toronto cause was lost. How
ever, the Bluebells put on an extra
spurt and with one minute left in
the game, Shirley Roberts sank
the winning basket for Vir^ity.
Alma Hatch was top scorer (or
the Blues with ten points, while
Shirley Roberts potted six and

The Verdict
The Court held the prisoners
guilty, and sentenced them to
hang. Necessity is not a defence
to the deliberate taking of anoth-
er's life ....
The sentence was afterwards
commuted by the Crown to
months' Imprisonment.
Was the Crown applying 'justice'
while the Court was applying
'law'? Was not the effect of the
Crown's exercise of its preroga-
tive of mercy merely to negative
the Court's decision? Why, then,
go through aU the unnecessary
motions of a trial? Should the
law be changed?
Can the Department of Philos
ophy, perhaps, suggest a solution'

President's Report
Desperate Remedies
President Smith suggests that it is "in-
cumbent on the university to take im-
mediate steps to make sure that iUiterary
no longer dwells in easy ^partnersliip with
the possession of a degree." And Univer-
sity College instituted remedial English
classes last fall.
President Smith's observations on the
necessity for remedial English cla&ses
leems to have knocked everyone for yet
another loop. And after the stress and
turmoil over the OSU report cards was
temporarily settling down, the public may
be ill prepared for another fracas.
But here it is. Once more the accusing
finger is pointed at the high schools, and
lor the present, psychology and "the new
philosophy" have not been called in to the
defence. Curiously enough, many of the
high school teachers have accepted Dr.
Smith's conclusion that high school
English is inadequate for the university,
if not elsewhere as weU. This admission
has been made with the same phlegmatic
oalm that many of the "younger gener-
ation" assume when confronted with
Time's analysis of the young. (Yes. we
•re grave and fatalistic, gregarious and
conventional, wanting in faith and lack-
ing the spirit of revolt, runs the chant.)
or course, there is little doubt that
secondary education Is in a bit of a mud-
dle. Finally parents and teachers have
caught up with an insidious American
Import, an offshoot of Dewey's philosophy
of education, which has been filtering
tnto Ontario for about twenty year-s new.
It is not too suiprising that-the public
iliould jump to attention when such a
Btrcnghold of tradition as report cards
are attacked. Nor is the howl over reme-
dial English much of a shock.
Although Secondary School Superinten-
dent Morgan's criticism of the nature of
the test ("The fact that many i>eople
failed on the test may or may not mean
anything"), may be very valid, the result
has struck a chord in the public con-
•cience.
Regardless of whether or not the test
itself has any basis in truth, many pejple
(iiicludhig the President, and the De-
partment of English at XTC) will and
have accepted its conclusions as gos^>ei
truth. And they may be quite Justified.
However, we would seriously question
the wisdom of such a move. If the uni-
versity attempts to make up for the
deficiencies of high school training, it
may easily find that not only remedial
English, but courses in rudimentary
geometi7. the elements of science, basic
French and the fundamentals of social
studies, will also have to be instituted.
In short, the university will find itself
transformed into a sort of super-high
school. It is. of course, one way of deny-
ing everyone a ujiiversity education.
The only answer to the problem will lie
in mitigating the confusion of outlook
which now ' characterizes secondary
schools. On the one hand, we have Minis-
ter of Education Dimlop's assertion that
education "must get dO'^Ti to busmess and
see that every pupil has the practical tools
he needs to earn his living when he leaves
school." And on the other hand, we have
the theorists who are bent on making
every child an island, entire in himself.
Those who wouid make the child the
measure of all things can hardly be said
to prepare him to earn a living. And
"practical tools", aside from the confines
of a machine shop, is such a nebulous
term that it is difficult to discuss. We
sense that it conflicts with the theorists.
The present inadequacies must be met
by a more sane attitude on the part of
the high school. The universities, by out-
look and pui-pose, are in no way fitted
to perform secondary school tasks.
As for the Illiterates, it is to be hoped
that the university will be astute enough
riot to graduate them.

44 professors have been suspended from
the University of Toronto staff as a re-
sult of the recent "honour system" scan-
dal. The discovery that certain non-
conformist lecturers had been smuggling
notes into class sparked a thorough in-
vestigation last month, which revealed
that some professors had resorted to writ-
ing lecture notes on their cuffs, while
others were reported to be suspiciously
interested in their watches, or suffered
consistently from bad colds.
The scandal, which provoked the sud-
den return of President Spontaneous
Speech from India, where he has spent
the past three years, also involved The
Veracity, student daily, when it was dis-
covered that rebellious professors were
filing their notes in copy bags and smug-
gling them to Oshawa where they were
available for reference on receipt of a
note from the Feature Editor indicating
that the lecturer concerned had promised
to submit to a Campus Profile.
The honour system was started on the
Toronto Campus three years ago, when
Dean Swizzel. the President's re
tive, lit the famous "intellectual hl^^
— which unfortunately caused the
tion of Convocation Hall
"hen ^
copies of the President's Report
advertantly added to the pUe of
notes. At the time it was beliet
all notes had been burned, but th^*"
investigation revealed that some^
sors were warned in time to hiii^^'^'
notes in wastepaper baskets in th '
Common Room of University V'"^
whence they were subsequentlv
Oshawa. ' ^"t
OUR READERS WRITE
Editor, The Varsity:
From your own quotes, it would hardly
ippear that Piesident Smith has request-
ed that professors be Ciceronians. The
lecture system is Ciceronian.* even if bad
Ciceros are conducting it. The method was
explained by Sir Fi-ancis Bacon in The
Advancement of Learning where he call-
ed it the Magistral Way:
For as knowledges are now deliver-
ed, there is a kind of contract error
between the deliverer and the receiv-
er; for he that delivereth knowledge,
desireth to deliver it in siuch form as
may best be believed, and- not as may
be best examined. . . -
It was this contract error as Veil as
poor delirery with which President Smith
was concerned. He wants the professor
t>o follow a natural method of cognition
in teaching, tracing through problems
with his class rather than persuading
them with the oratory iif the pulpit. Ba-
con suggested this contiary method;
But knowledge that is delivered as
a thread to be spun on, ought to be
delviered and intimated if it were pos-
sible in the sa-me method wherein it
was invented. . . .
This sounds suspiciously similar to
Professor Gilbreth's remarl: that the mind
is en rapport with the class only by spon-
taneity of thinking. This does not indi-
cate teaching university lecturers stylized
methods of teaching. It requires height-
ening their awareness of the relevance of
their subject matter to the techniques of
the culture and the classes which they
are teaching. It requires that they cezise
trying to be poor Ciceros and be natural.
The eloquence called for is not that of
persuation, but the ability to present
thought in action.
On other occasions The Varsity has sup-
ported the work of Professors Innis and
McLuhan as correctives to problems of
communication existent in the university.
It has called attention to the need for a
recognition of the oral tradition in which
we live which emphasizes the visual and
the conversational modes of apprehension
and presentation rather than printing
or writing. In such a cultural situation
• the function of language as a means of
communication becomes of utmost im-
portance.
When the President of the University
agrees with this policy and publicly advo-
cates it, you attack his view by misi-ep-
resentlng it and condemning it. Tliere is
nothing artificial in President Smith's
platform to the extent that it calls atten-
tion bo a problem and implies a diag-
nosis. More atte.ntlon to the problem of
communication and awareness in the
modern world iiS certainly needed when
the breakdown in communication is so
bad that The Varsity editors cannot eve&
apprehend the fact that someone Is sup-
porting their view-point.
Lurking in the background, too, are
the phosts ot self-interest and smugness.
Smugness in satisfaction with the status
quo: self-interest in that many students
blatantly declare the purpose of the lec-
ture is to give notes. With this view. The
Varsity must agiee. If the lecture is to
give notes. The Varsity is correct; it
should be treated casually and with dis-
crimination.
The written exams conducted anony-
mously are a major point of emphasis
in the evaluation of the year's work and
tend to foster the pr.ovision of notes
which will answer the questions. Stu-
dent's technique in facing such exams is
to persuade the examiner they know the
work rather than actually presenting it.
This falls into line with the Ciceronian
mode of the lecture system.
President Smit^ and others, however,
suggest that the classroom is not inter-
changeable with the text-book or a set
of notes. It is a laboratory where
pursuit of knowledge is contlnuprt
means of the oral discussion,
only be accomplished If knowleji
presented to the student tn a nj(,
not a ministerial, way. The inciUcj,
of belief is proper to the Church-
teaching of knowledge is proper to
university. In that President s
calling attention to a problem of
munication which Is vital to all int^]i
tual life, he has done a service not on
to the University of Toronto, but to
versities in general.
If the lecture is to be maintained as
means of freeing students fi-om the
gation of consulting books, it should"
The Varsity suggests, be treated light.
If, however, as President Smith sugges
it can bring the student and the pr
fessor into a closer cultural unity, n ij
sea-ious matter: People today are ready t
a return to conversation; science has
erated all fields for a consideration
knowledge by means of following na'
processes of cognition. The method,
ever, is not new; it is the method adr
ed by the Platonic dialogue, by tralnini
the mediaeval universities, by Bacon s
the Senecan humanists. Tradition f
tainly stands with President Smith In
desire to approach the student by Irai^
ing him in the techniques of the fi
which he is studying, rather than gi
him a set of "received opinions" to
main undeveloped thi-oughout life,

I show we belonged to the
party and we were inside.
"Vour tickets, Senor?" the
doorman asked the gentleman
behind us. •'But here are our
tickets.' they exclaimed, "eight
-ticliets lor our party." "I'm sorry
Senor. eight people have already
gone in. You will have to get
more tickets."
"But how can this be . .
their voices faded into the gen-
eral murmur of the crowd. With
the clarity of mind which comes
to all men in the face of danger
I considered the fact that the
Canadian system, where the man
with the tickets goes first, made
up for its lack of chivalry by
being very efficient. But of
course such behaviour was im-
possible in the Argentine where
the old fashioned manners still
held sway.
We walked into the theatre
and down the centre aisle. Celin»
calm and unruffled, carrying her
Latin beauty like a queen. "Oh,
but it is well attended," she ex-
claimed.
"It seems to be." I replied, see-
ing that every seat was taken
and that people were standing
down both side aisles,
"Ah." she said with surprise,
smiling across at someone in the
audience and then turning to
men and saying earnestly: "On©
cannot come to the theatre
without friends, true " Through-
out our long and solitary walk
forwards she continued to rec-
ognize and greet her friends.
At the front of the theatre
three extra rows had been made
with chairs to accommodate the
overflow crowd, and the front
row of these was empty. The
front row, it could be said, was
blatantly empty, and as we
headed inexorably towards It I
resisted the temptation to turn
and run out Into the night.
"Here we arc." Celina an-
nounced loudly as though find-
ing a friend after a long and
arduous search. She sank down
gracefully into the chair nearest
the aisle and I, commending my
delicate Anglo-Saxon soul to
heaven, sat down beside her.
"We arrived just in time,
didn't we," she remarked calmly.
"Yes," I replied faintly, "pos-
sibly even early since all these
chairs are still empty."
"Ah but then some people al-
ways arrive late, to create an
effect, no? They make them-
selves important by disturbing
everybody and I have no pa-
tience with them." I tried val-
iantly, xmder the circumstances,
to maintain some kind of con-
versation until Qie usher ar-
rived.
"Senor," he asid sternly, "you
cannot sit here. These seats are
reserved.**
"But of course they are," Celina
exclaimed largely, "for us."
"No senorita, for a apecial
party. You will have to move."
"But we have our tickets," she
declaimed, "so we have the right
to sit down, no?"
"No," he replied firmly.
"No?" she cut him short, "so
we have not the right to sit
down, eh? A fine theatre," she
raised her voice, sensing her
audience, "where people cannot
sit down." A man laughed
somewhere behind her.
"Senorita please," the usher
pleaded, "you can sit down but
not here, these seats are re-
served."
"Where la the sign? Where is
the sign saying they are reserv-
ed?" she looked about her in an
exaggerated fashion.
"There Is no sign but . , ."
•Then they are not reserved."
"Then I will get the manager."
and he stormed away up the
aisle.
"These people." Celina said
airily dismissing him with a
wave of her hand.
"Hie manager was a large man
with extremely fat hands and
with long black hair patted neat-
ly onto the nape of his neck.
He smiled at me softly and said:
"Senor?"
"No, no," interrupted the usher,
"the senorita."
"Senorita." he said slowly. 1
am very sorry but I'm sure you
will understand. The Minister
for the Interior." he paused for
effect, "has the whole front row
for himself."
"He must be a very large man,
no?"
When the laughter had died
down, the manager was sttll
smiling. "Very funny, yes?" "But
you will have to move." he spat
out the words, the smile van-
ished from his face. He stood
very still glaring down at us and
when he saw that Celina had
not the slightest Intention of

would get the police.
I looked at Celina, pleading
silently, and she turned at ra»
and smiled with encourage- '

for two seats; it is sUIy." Sh«
turned to the man behind us—
the one who had laughed— and
explained that we had our tick-
ets and how were wc to know
that these seats were reserved. |
It was at this moment tiiafc
the crowds standing in the al-

said : 'You are quite rlgh*

"The older one," I answered
brightly.
This Instantly awoke his al-

Suddenly a brilliant light il-

Judges' Comments
The judges of the entries for The Varsity Litera,^
Issue of this year are without exception "disappointeij.;
men. Only in the field of serious verse are comment^
unavailable.
The essay contest, judged by Professor McLuhan, „(
St. Mike's, had only two entries. Said McLuhan, "Neither
is prizeworthy, but the essay The Next Time You Listen'
is the better of the two." He awarded an honorable men.
tion to both, but states that he is not happy about award,
ing prizes to either.
The poetry competition was divided into two sections,
light and serious verse. The judge was Professor Northrop
Frye of Victoria College. Of the several entries, he chose
A Winter's Talc by Donald Urquhart for first prize, with
Charmian Reading's City Smells and last Evening by
W. B. Kay second and third respectively.
Professor Frye suggested that "several might be men,
tioned for honorable mention ; Miles Kennedy's Waiting at
the Pit-Head, though not successful as a poem, showed
unusual imaginative power and sincerity."
In the realm of light verse. Professor Frye found no
entry which he could call "an unqualified success". He
said, however, that he would give honorable mention to
Roses, Roses Everywhere by John Grube, Time and Tests
by Hugh Niblock, and the first of a group if light verses
submitted by R. W. Shepherd, and bearing only the title,
Light Verse.
Novelist Professor Douglas Grant of University Col.
lege was unable to decide between the merits of the short
stories Celina and Shell Out, both by R. W. Shepherd, and
thus placed them in a first place tie, commenting that
Shepherd was "streets ahead of the rest". He added that
Shell Out was the better written of the two storie.s, but
that Celina was the better story, being the most imagin.
ative and original entry in the short story field.
Third prize in the short story group went to R. K.
Ham for The Unhappy Medium. Professor Grant stated
that he found the stories generally low in quality, and
declined to name any entry for honorable mention.
The photographic competition was judged by Associ-
ate Professor of Art and Archeology Charies F. Comfort,
He chose the well-lit and spontaneous photo by Bob E.ipp
as top prizewinner, with A. M. Chrysler's University Col-
lege Cloisters second and P. Miller's "powerfully expressive
character study", entitled Oldtimer, for third. Honorable
mentions went to D. Sharkoff's Sun on Water, Miller's
Queen's Park, and A. M. Chrysler's Peter Pan.
In his critical remarks Professor Comfort suggested
that much better results would probably have been obtain-
ed had some of the unsuccessful entrants taken the trouble
to personally make their enlargements, some of which ai«

And as Joe plodded along in

He could never have guessed
Ote particular joK his medioc-

But Beerstein could have. He
had collected a mound of infor-
mation on Joe Schlunck that
would choke a bull, and he was
trying to gain that end by shov-
ing'it down Weavel's throat, bit
by bit. A«aln and again be
vould say:
"But it must be true. Sup-
pose the chances are trillions
to one, Weavel. Sooner or later
It's bound to happen, in an in-
flniiy of opportunities, .^id it
happened sooner, that's all."
And then he would say:
"But never, never had I
ttiought — hoped — dreEuned — it
would h^pen in my lifetime!"
And he would clasp his hands in
•heer startistical rapture.
And again:
"Hear this, Weavel. His fa^
tber is Garl Schlunck, a recog-
niaed genius in the field of pure
Afftrophysios. while his mother,
formerly Annie Dimm, flunked
out (rf Pass Arts with nine sup-
plementals. God knows bow she
got her man. but I tell you, this
union was blessed with an issue
that is a perfect chameleon, a
self-adapter to the exact medium
of whatever society in which it
moves. Think. Weavel, if you
can. Suppose we put it in with
a group of intelligentsia. What
do we get? An average intel-
lecUial! Oh, what a wealth of
detightful possibilities there
we!"
But Weavel would say nothing,
-Bcept, perhaps:
"It's disheartening that the
average should look lilie that."
The uth was, he was severely
ehake so shaken that he even
neglected to sneer at Beer-
rteln's inevitable final warning:
"But silence, Weavel. Not a
word to a soul. If this gets out,
Schlunck may be lost to us for-
ever."
Ctf course, tt did get out. And
very loudly, too. One newspap-
er said:
"PERFECTLY AVERAGE

And the other newspaper said,
as always:

were first bored ("M-m-m-m"),
and tJien intrigued ("M-m-m-

But all who read were arous-

Joe Schlunck was on the lips of
all the literate; ami nearly as

turally.
And finally, inevitably. In-

solved to dispel his uncertain,

CHARMIAN READING
The dream of Hell walked the streets
And hung around the halls of old men's homes
Made delicious fearful shivers
Along the spines of wives and spinsters
Startling the sins of commission and omission
Into human consciousness, and taken as the banner cry
Led men to far more dreadful sins. ,
The dream of hell rode the streetcars
And paid four-fifty for box seats
And wrapped itself around the labels
Of bottles on the rocking tables.
The deep throated baying of the city
Awakens the girl who dreams of pines
To her task of running and avoiding
Unnecessary conversation with the streets.

whispered to each other, and
when Richard said plaintively :
•■They're not comiiie. I"m going

quickly and switched on both
lights. "Come in." he said heart-
ily, gazing at them as if without
recognition. "You're Johnny,

As he sat in his room with the
papers spead out on the table, he
heard her moving about the
kitchen, and he knew that what-
ever she made would be the most
appealing gilt any child receiv-
ed that night. She made a dish
of thick fudge, moist and dark,
and toffee which broke into large
shiny pieces, and later, when he
went to the kitchen, he saw a
plate piled high with oop-corn

of deception and the awe of their
own daring. "No," said Richard
softly, twisting on his heel, "I'm
Richard."
"But of course you are, I should
have known. I'm 'afraid we have-
n't got any candy," he added
lightly, "We've only just got in.
But her, buy yourselves something
with this, will you."
He watched them disappear
down the path, two small figures
dressed ridiculously in the long
red curtains, wearing large paper
hats and slouching as t>ecame
the gait of a pirate. Shouldn't
have given them that much, he
told himself; a quarter would
have been more than enough. But
then a quarter wasn't what they
had come for. He opened the In-
ner door and went through the
house to the kitchen.
"Who was that?" she looked
up from her book.
"That was Charlie and Rich-
ard," he said evenly.
'But why didn't you let them
knock?"
"Because they happened to
know that we were at home. And
because I'm not going to sit
around In a dark house waiting
for children to knock vainly at
our door. I'm going out to buy
something now."
"Dear, dou't go out." she said
gently. "I'll get something now.
I suppose it is a little difficult."
"It's not only difficult, it's em-
barrassing." He was angry at
himself for speaking sharply to
her. "Shall I help you get the
things?"
"No, you have work to do. and
I can' get It quite easUy. Really
I can, don't wony about if
balls matted together with brown
sugar.
"Not for you," she said from
the door. She always moved
quietly, and even now, after five
years, he would still startle to
find her standing suddenly be-
side him. "Do you think I've
done enough?"
"Oh, yes, although there does
seem to be a horde of them out
there."
He drew the curtains aside
and they both looked out Into
the street. The night seemed to
be filled with children, and with
the cries of children as they ran
from house to house. At the
other end of Deanvale someone
had lighted a firfi.
He could not ignore the sounds;
they forced themselves through
lnt& his mind and he found him-
self reading without any knowl-
edge of what he read, his eyes
travelling back and forth across
. the page while he listened intent-
ly to the muffled cries of the
children outside. They sounded
very close, and twice he had
heard footsteps on the walk, but
there was no sound at the door
and he wondered where the chil-
dren were. They must be at the
other end of the street, or stand-
ing around the fire.
He knew that she too would
be waiting now, troubled and yet
refusing to be troubled. And
when, lata in the evening, there
had been a knock at the door
he heard her moving quickly
from her chair. "I'll get it," he
said, "you get the things."
He met her coming back from
the kitchen carrying the two

to get to Greenfield." She stood
hesitantly in the middle of the
room holding the plates as if she
had nowhere to put them.
"They must be at the other
end of the street," he said. "Cer-
tainly they're making enough
noise down there to raise the
dead."
"There's been one little brat—
the Long's child I think— scream-
ing at the top of iiis voice all
evening,"
"Like father, like son? Of
course, we are a little off the
beaten track, and the fact that
the street is so dark makes it no
more appealing."
It was, in ' part, the lack of
lights, especiaUy when all the
other streets looked bright and
cheerful. It was nothing else, he
knew that; nothing more lun-
de mental than coincidence, fop
it was unreasonable to think
that children would conspire
among themselves and plan »o
subtle a punishment. And yet,
one never knew with children;
they seemed to sense what adults
could not see. Living closer to
Instinct, they lived "closer to
truth, and they were always

He waited patiently at the coi^
ner. unashamed of hfs Intention.
He told her that he was going
to see Bill Stokes for a minute.
Behind the light of the pumpkin,
.■she was sitting in the room with
her book, and he saw again the
delicate pain which had cro-ssed
her face when the cabbie knock-
ed. She would dislike going to the
kitchen now, not wanting to
face the gifts which obtruded
themselves Into the room like
the possessions ol a loved one
recently dead.
And then he saw them, coming
down Deanvale towards him.
They walked slowly, staggering
under the weight of their loads.
"Hi, " he called out, "where you
going?"
"We're going home," a little
boy said in a frightened voice.
"Yeah, we've got to go home.
We should have been in at nine
o'clock."
"Have you got much?" he ask-
ed jokiiigly, standing In front of
them.
"Sure," they replied complac-
ently.
"I tell you what," he lowered
his voice confidentially, "there'i
a house over there where they'vo
got great loads of candy."
The group group stood stU! for
a moment, considering, and then
the little boy said: "Aw. we goC
enough."
"They've got great lumps ot
fudge and toffee," he added light-
ly, "I know because I've seea
them." The group wavered about
its leader, torn between fear and
desire.
"I dunno,"* the little boy de-
murred, and then added truo*
ulently: "I got to get home."
"It won't" take you a second,*
he tried to be casual, "and thea
you can eat the fudge before go-
ing to bed."
He watched them trail off to-
wards the house, clinging tena-
ciously to their baskets and
swinging their bodies against the
weight. They walked up to the
front door in a ragged single file
and he heard them knock. They
were too tired to cry: "Shell out."
And then he walked away from
the house down the brightly
lighted street where the wrajv

ake a baby tornado, and exclaim-
ad, "Oh, here you we at last, Mr.
Douglas! Could you wait lor a
moment please? Do sit down."
I sanlc into the nearest chair. As
the door of the office was opened
by Miss SmyUie, I heard the hor-
rible cackle or my dentist as he
cracked some graveyard joke.
Then came the hideous whir of
the drill. I closed my eyes in
a«ony. A muffled sob broke the
tense silence, and I saw that there
was someone else in the tiny ante-
room — a very frightened lad of
about eight, with tear-stained
cheeks, and swollen red eyes. His
:ips were trembling, and his chin
wobbled piteously. I felt my liP»
begin to quiver in sympathy.
To avoid a complete breakdown,
I clutched at the nearest mag-
azine. It was a medical journal,
and I opened It at random. I
froze in horror. Before me was a
bi«e diagram of a huge tooth
with a hu«e cavity. 'Hie article
was entitled "Tooth Decay in
Canada." As I shut liie magazine
hurriedly, I tovoiuntarlly sUd my
tongue <autlously into a steeaWe
cavity in my molar. Yes, It was
■till there, and acknowledged its
presence with a short, sharp stab
Of pain.
As I threw the magazine sav-
agely back on the table, the boy
ceased sniffling, and regarded me
T^ith sudden interest. Just as we
rfcere going to begin a friendly con-
versation, since we were feliow-
victinis condemned to the same
torture. Miss Soiythe breezed in.
I looked hopefully at the boy,
but she informed me succinctly
that I was next, and propelled me
Into the Inner sanctum of the
fiend who awaited me. Just as we
entered, one of my friends, look-
ing as if he was about to faint,
tottered out. The door closed with
a dismal bang.
Whenever I see Dr. Cural, I
shudder. I often wonder why I
don't hear the rattle of bones
when I beliold him, for he is the
nearest thing to a skeleton that
I have ever seen. His skin is so
ti^tly stretched over his taU.
loosely-Jointed frame that his
bone almost protrude throueh it.
It has an unhealthy, colorless,
grey white tint, like that of a
cadaver's skin. Atop his white
coat, which looks like a shroud,
his bald head perches like a
gleamtag death's-head. Contact
with his cold, clammy hands re-
minds me unpleasantly of the
grisly, loatlisome, touch of the
dead. Of course, I may Just be
prejudiced.
As I came in. Dr. Cural was
rubbing his long, lean hands to-
geUier like a miser, and cracking
his knuckles horribly. Suddenly
he turned around. A grin of sheer
delight and anticipation creased
his face, and revealed his sharp,
pointed teeth, which always re-
mind me of a hungry wolf. His
bulging eyes shone with ill-con-
cealed Joy at th-; coming torture.
"Well, well, Mr. Douglas," he
cackled. "How are your teeth?"
he imiulred eagerly In a I-hope-
they - are-toad-so-I-can-have-
some-fun tone.
I wet tny lips nervously, and
slared back at him like a hypno-
tized robin looking mlo tne eyes
of a tabby who is about to make
a meal of lum.
At this moment. Miss Smythe, an
athletic, super-efficient, tall Ama-
zon with big. blue, cow-like eyes and
frimy blonde hair, rushed up be-
hind me. I was too weak to even
struggle against her tackle, but I
do think it was rather cowardly of
how a helpless mass of clay under
the competent hands of a modeller
feels.
As I felt myself Jacked up, the
doctor gave a low, gleeful chuckle.
Little streams of persph-ation seep-
ed down the lines of my wrinkles,
and then gently dribbled toto my
ears, tor my head was tilted back.
I was helpless.

move from that seat."
"Why?" aaked the man Bngrily.
"Why?" repeated the sergeant
with raised eyes, "you know very
■weU why. Because the front row
is reserved for the Minister of
the Interior."
"Bat this isn't the front row.-
exclaimed the man, turning to
those about him for support.
"What do you mean, it isn't
the front row?" sputtered the
sergeant, his confidence weak-
ening visibly. "And you be quiet,"
he ordered the manager, "I'n
handle this."
"This is the second row." the
man said in a loud voice.
"But you are mad." exploded
the sergeant, glancing afcout hira
quickly in a furtive attempt to
fathom the man's meaning.
"Look," he yelled, "look if
this isn't the front row. You are
trying to make a fool out of me,"
he lashed the air with his aims.
"I'll teach you. I'll teach you to
make a fool out of me," and im-
mediately OTdered the two of-
ficers to throw the man out.
The two policemen dragged the
irate citizen out of his seat and
up towards the entrance of the
theatre. The entire second row,
aided by a few volunteers from
the third and fourth rows, fought
valiantly to keep the man inside
the theatre. The manager wrung
his fat hands in a perfect an-
guish of despair, knowing that
an injustice was being commit-
ted, yet eertaln that if he tried
to correct it, complete chaos
would result. He followed the
tide of battle up the aisle in a
state of fluttering panic, and at
that moment the house plunged
into darkness.
While the sounds of the
struggle diminished towards the
entrance and grew faint in the
street, the orchestra leader
brought his nervous musicians
to order and the music com-
menced- In a remarkably short
space of time the house was
again quiet and the concert had
begun.
Celina listened attentively
through the prel u de, her dell -
cate profile calm and beautiful
in the faint light from the stage.
But when the chorus entered
and commenced to sing, a shadow
crossed her face; and whenj4i.e
singing liad continued for at
least ten minutes she turned to
her neighbour and in a loud
whisper asked: "Is this going to
be all singing?"
The man nodded.
"But we don't want to hear
«liiging," she complained — as
though we had been lured into
the place under false pretenses.
"No " I whispered back hoarse-
ly, "no, no."
"Then let us go," she said.
And together we walked across
to the centre aisle and up the
long and solitary corridor out
into the night.

EverylJiing under my eyes blur-
red away, as if faces, shapes
and things, only seconds ago
mirrored clearly in a pool, were
suddenly torn to pieces by little
eddies and currents.
I was lost In a world that had
left the moorings ol reality. On-
ly the newspaperboy at my
side, with his keenness and busi-
nesslike pep, had retained a de-
gree of realness. The sole part
of him that shared the panic of
the crowds, was an uncombed
tuft of red hair tossing fire in
the air. He re^mbled a magi-
cian ready to perform a most
impossible trick. His freckled
face twisted into a rQguish
grimace, as he shouted himself
hoarse: "Buy the Toronto Daily
Star, get your star, your Staaar
. . . .". My gaze automatically
turned to the sky. and I won-
dered how the stars that min-
utes ago were bristling over my
head, had all disappeared be-
hind a sinister blanket of clouds.
My attention was entirely direct-
ed to the vanquished stars, when
a hollow roar inundated the
earth with howling winds and
torrents of rain. Dimly through
the noise I could hear the paper-
boy's voice; "Buy a Star to put
over your head; buy a Star to
keep <iry." I slipped three
cents into his hand and bought
myself a Star. For an instant
I had visions of being a future
realtor, buying and selling in-
terplanetary property. I tossed
my Star over my head and blind-
ed by its circumference, I
launched into a chain of fearful
adventures: Crossing the" street
against the full glare of a red
light. I was bruised by the fen-
der of a car; as I jumped to
safety on the opposite comer, I
smashed into a towering obsta^
cle I vaguely recognized as a
swearing policeman; the re-
bounce sent me flying over a
garbage can and landed me on
tihe neck of a short, stubby gen-
tleman whom I promptly carried
down with me into a well-chosen
pool of water and slush. The
poor man gave a groan reminis-
ceait of a bullftx>g drowning In
a swamp. I raised my Star to
have a better view of events on
earth, and what I saw was
enough to paralyze the toughest
of souls : Staring at me from be-
neath, with the eager gleam of
a cannibal ready ready to con-
sume his victim, was none other
than my professor of philosophy,
who for the last two years had
made it a hobby of failing me
consistently. Raising a trembl-
ing finger to the sky (past the

SS SEMINAR IN INDIA
40ANUCKS TO FLY
Lester Pearson
.. Pearson Grad
nstalled Tonight
Foi'ty Canadian university students
should be going to India this year, to take
part in the fifth International Summer
faeminar. The site and other details of this
year s seminar were announced yesterday
in a release from International Student
bervice, the seminar's sponsors.
The Canadian participants will receive
scholarships including free board, room
and tuition for the five-week program,
and travel expenses to and from India.
One hundred and twenty students in all
will participate in the seminar. Besides
the Canadians there will be 40 from South-
east Asia and the same number from
other countries".
Theme of the five-week program will be
"The Human Implications of Technological
Change." This subject will be discus.sed
with particular reterence to the peoples
of Asia, with comparisons being drawn
with other areas represented at the sem-
inar, ISS announced.
The seminar will be held from May 28
to July 2. Canadian participants will be
flown to India to arrive on time. Director
of studies will be Warden Nicholas Igna-
tieff of Hart House.
Canadian students taking part will be
selected on the basis of leadership quali-
ties and academic ability, the ISS release
said. Applications will be open to all facul-
ties. Preference will be given to senior
undergraduates, and recent grads, who
will be returning to a Canadian university
in the fall.
The Asian students will come from In-
dia, Pakistan, Burma, Thailand, Malava.
Indonesia, and Ceylon. The other 40 stu-
dents will come from the United States,
European countries, Australia, and New
Zealand.
In addition to the core program of
study, the group will visit and discuss with
responsible officials some of the programs
undertaken to meet the problems of the
area. These include irrigation projects,
rural educational projects, health centres.
Discu.ssion at the seminar will also in-
clude the philosophic and religious out-
look of the Asian peoples.
Besid«e Warden Ignatieff, the staff will
include three Canadian university profes-
sors, and members of university staffs
from South-East Asia.
Estimated cost to Canada of the sem-
inar will be $65,000, according to ISS,
which adds "this is less than it costs to
train and equip one fighter pilot." The
money is to be raised from government,
university, and private sources.
In describing the aims of the seminar,
the ISS release said it will not be a busi-
ness conference nor a meeting of a learned
society, but "an international community
group, joined together for a common pro-
gram of study."
Seminar Admini.stration will be in tha
hands of a staff member of Canadian ISS,
in co-operation with the South-East Asian
Field Office of World University Service,
which ISS represents in Canada.
Application forms for the Canadian stu-
dents will be available from the E.xternal
Affairs Committee of the Students' Coun-
cii, or from the National ISS Office at
43 St. George St.
This is the fifth such seminar sponsored
by Canadian ISS. Previous ones have been
in Germany, Holland, France and Canada.

Blues Trounce Carabins 9-4
Ernie Frey Gets Hat Trick
By BARRY THOMAS
The Hocfcey Blues came up to true form last
Friday night at Varsity Arena when they whipped
the league-leading Montreal Carabins 9-4 in a free
wheeling game in which 21 penalties were handed
out. For the Blues It was their best effort to date
and the way they played against the Montrealers
was a good indication that they are going to be hajd
to beat from here on in.
Captain Ernie Prey led the Varsity parade with
the hat trick, scoruig three goals in succession during
the fij'st period and adding two assists later on in
the game. Jack WheJdrake and Jack MacKenzie fol-
lowed close behind with two goal^ and two assists
each. Don Rope and Norm Pox were the other Var-
sity marksmen.
The Montrealers semed to be a shadow of tht
former great college teams that have competed here.
Their defence was generaUy weak and at times next
to nil while goalie Marcel Auger had a bad night.
Andre Charest who played almost 60 minutes on de-
fence was obviously too tired to do his regular J<*
of sparking the Carabins' attack. Coach Arthur
Therrlen used only two lines most of the night wltli
both of these lines being outbumped by the aggres-
sive Blues. Consequently the pace was too fast foe
the Carabins and many of their dipsy-doodle attack*
failed to materialize.
Claude Hotte was the best forward for the visl-
^tors, and broi^t the Carabins badi Inio contentioi

City Hall Proltes
Pltony Ball Game
By HUGH NIBLOCK
The ugly head of commerciaUzed Uiing is crooked It is no doubt
epoU reared itself on our campus
last Friday. From latest reports.
City Hall lias assigned a special
committee to investigate this
Bhametul display of gajne fixing.
The incident relerred to is the
Porter Trophy Grudge Match be-
ween the News and Sports depart-
ments of the locnl undergraduate
paper. The news team, heavy fav-
ourites at game time, caine out of
the contest on tlie Ehort side of a
37-31 count.
This fact alone caused no end of
raised eye-brows among the boys
in the back room. In a short mter-
view in his office in the lower
depths of a nearby hotel. Big Jolin
from Sunnyside, local boob, stated
that seeing as how In his books the
news team had a decided edge over
ihe lowly sports collection, some-
thing is rotten. It is a well-ltnown
fact that as Big John says, "accord-
ing to bis boc^'Mtisnodoubtasure

when well-known hoop stars like

sure thing.
Even at the begiiuiing* when the
teams lined up you could see that
there was something wrong — the
referee was Robert B. "Long-Sight"
Dnieper, an ex-sporta scribe for
The Varsity. The choice of referee
was agi'eed upon by both teams.
This fact alone is no small item
when such a well-known character
■Long-Sight" Dnieper is In-
volved.
However all caution was thrown
to the wind which was blowing
frwn the general direction of Dnie-
per, The game itself ia hardly
worth mentioning as there was
nothing spectacular to be noted
with the exception of a damllng
hidden ball play executed by the
female segment ,of the news team.
Deniie "Buffalo" Richards, Pearl
"OP" Paraes, Barb "Bo-Peep"
Browne, Marg "Oshawa" Welch and
ESinor 'TLongshofStrangways dead-
locked the game in the late part of
the fourth quarter for the news de-
partment. They had the unfortu-
nate sporters conqdetely bewildered
by this hidden ball play until ref-
eree called sports for Illegal use of
hands and awarded these said
sports types twelve free throws.
This, of course, was the deci<IiDg

the ball into their own basket.
If it hadnt been tor the undying
honesty of the time-keeper the
news team would have probably

ever as the contest grew closer he
blew his whistle to end the game,
pocketed his new crisp dollar bill
and has not been seen since. Three
cheers and a huzzah for tiie time-
keeper.
Despite the undying attempt of
tti£ sfioris team in winning the
game the newsies looked far better
in losing. This is probably the rea-
son for the big investigation. As

Having Sold Bloo
To Local Hospital
There is no truth in the rumor
circulating around the campus that
at the time of the Noronic disaster
blood donated to the Red Cross was
sold by Toronto General Hospital,
according to officials in both th»
hospital and the Red Cross.
ITie rumor was brought to light
at the last meeting of the Stu-
dents ' Administrative Council
vrtien Paul Forestell, IV St. Mike's,
asked toe council if any of the
blood being donated in the Red
Cross campaign would be given to
local hospitals for "civil defence."
Forestell said that two students
in his college had told him that at
the time of the Noronic fire, blood
that had been donated to the Red
Cross for nothing was sold by To-
ronto General Hospital.

Final talk in the series will he

Hicke, Telegram feature writer.
"These talks are being given to
explain some principles of news-
p^er work to students who do not
work on The Varsiiy, as well as
tboce wbo do," explaiined Varsity
editor Barb Browue.
"As the newsp£«>ers grow in im-
portance, it is more necessary to
understand tww they work. There
lias been many attempts to show
the evil of the press in recent
years, without realizing why these
problems occur. We hope to cor-
rect ttiis condition In our series of
lectures", she added.
The basic purpose of the mod-
ern newspaper is to present the
daily news in an impartial man-
ner, stke explained. The propor-
tion of coverage— bow much is de-
voted to world news, how much to
sports, how much to sensational-
ism— must -be determined by the
paper's staff. This in turn will de-
d«Ki on the group for which the pe-
jer is published.
However, at a recent Hart House
debate, it was suggested that the
press must do more than infonn
—it must also stimulate thought
through it editorial pages. It must
also educaie the public in fields
must ^ard against
irresponsibility at all times, warn-
ed Varsity News Ekiitor Ian Mon-
tagnes. This could be accidental
in facts or deliberate
falsefication of news designed to
promote a paper's "pet" policy.
•But before criticizing the press
too much for its errors, or for in-
complete stories, you must remem-
ber the speed and tension under
which all stwies are written." he
a^ed. "Often there is not enough
time to get the full story. How-
ever, errors— or irresponsibihty —
in one paper will nearly always be
checked by other members of the
press."

in Canada, their cultural abilities
and aspirations will be reap*

The occasion was Uie Tzlni^
College Centen'ijul Debate held last
Thui-sday in Sti'achan Hall, when
Ti-inity went wide open and 1st co-
eds, guests fi'om other faculties on
the campus, and alumni vote on
the rasoli^oD.
The debate took an unusual fla-
vour trom the beginning. The guest
speaker, Robertson Davies. was
found to be sufiertng Iroin a throat
disoi'der, and had to have his
speech read by Mrs. Davies. TXie
attitude of the Government speak-
er was aptly summed up In Mi-s.
Davies' curt rebuttal at the end
of debate: "It is a matter of to-
tal indifferenoe to this house whiodi
way the vote goes."
In her main speecli for the Gov-
ernment, Mrs. Lavies stated that
no nation really wants cultural
development if it really under-
stands it, for if ciey get it, some-
one's toes are oeing stepped on.
"People doct tiarive in tJie fact
that Ihey are undergoing a great
cultural development," she said.
PoinUng ouit that great culture
could only come through great
geniuses, sJie warned we must not
mistake great nationalistic en-
thusiasm for real genius. "If we
insist too much on Nationalist Cul-
ture," aiie said, "we will fail— as
did Ireland and Scotland whose
great men came before natiooal-
ism."
First spe*lc.«r for the opposltloo
was Prof. Lyndon Smith.
"It li the Inunan environment
tbat counts." he said. "It Is only
wtth good food and everything
that goes wUta It that one
mftk« demBoids on the mind and
soul."
"A solid efficient government
wiljh a good surplus looking after
'ihe people is not conducive to any
cuiture." he stated. "When peo-
pl2 feel deeply enough about some-
thing to figrht for it they will coma
up with something constructive.
We go to war because we don't
have the inevitable mind to think
up any other way of getting out
of the difficuUy," he said.
"The solution as I see it," he
said, "i« in the imagination. Cul-
ture Involves the life of a nation,
giving it a real flavour, or atti-
tude toward ultimate things. It is
this attitude which in the imagina-
tion is art, and when forced Into
reality is morals."
"I cough from the rubble of a
decaying mind." said John Bar-
toon. IV Trin., rising to speak for
the opposition. He then went on
to give the case that the govern-
ment should have given, and gave
his reasons tor opposing it.
"To prmnote a civilization, a
community must support a leisur-
ed class, or a state of inequality
such as we had in the older civil-
izatious." he said. "The masses
arc not interested in culture, and
in any small Canadian town we find
a cultural vacuum filled with a
barren sea of materialism," ha
said. "It is understandable to
consider distinctive Canadlaji Cul-
ture— it is a remnant of Natlonalr
ism we do not want."

Myra Heae'6 recital, and for thoee
tterc It w»e one <i< Oie moot re-
vardlD« musical evenings of ttte
■easco. Her aim seemed to be to
dr&w everyooe there Into her ctr-
«le ol frteiids and play Jot eftch ti-
dividually.
That she was loecesahil tn
•chlevlnB this feeling of intimacy
in spite ol a prodigious program
whloh. consisting only of three so
oatas, was especially unsuited for
tile purpose, is a tribute to ber
artistry. Any failure on her pert
to create this feeling must be at-
tributed largely to a certain aloof-
ness in the audience's attitude to-
wards her, which arose out of pro-
found respect for her.
The program was: Schubert; So-
nata in A. Op. 120; Brahms; So-
nata in P minor. Op. 5; Beethov-
en; Sonata in C minor. Op. ill.
Her effortless playing, and lyric-
al style served the Schubert, to
perfection. The web of simplicity
woven during this number so
completely gripped the audience
that it was totally unprepared for
the heights reached in the BraJmis.
■to *ls ep^odlc, explosive woi*.
an all-encompassing graap of ttoe

episodes successfully aod to keep
the movements in proportion to
one another. Her lyric touch gave

unsuspected,
me gieat Beethoven aonata is
exceeding diUlcutt to hoW logett-

stormy opening movement and ex-
tended adagio for a finale. Tlx
problem of the sonata arises In the
finale; how to make It comple-
ment the first movement and at
the same time be neither boring
nor disjointed.
At the bands of eome pteulsls
this movement degenerates into a
series ol episodes having little re-
lation to the whole and each hav-
ing Its own cUmax. However,
Myra Hess' relaxed, restrained,
lyric playing enabled her to over-
come this difficulty and give a
magical performance which
brought the recital to a raosrt sat-
isfying dose and brought her an
ovation. „ .^^ , «

SCIENCE NOTES
Embryo Rags
By OBBE LOUCKS
Woodaman, spare that tree
For the? wUI change It into
The Varsity. Oh can't you see
That it would be a sinto.
Paper was the original invention of the Chinese.
They disoovered it as we know it today, made
titxn wood, aixjut 105 AD. It was found that well
znacerated vegetable fibres could be refonned Into
a coherent sheet by simply draining off the water
and drying them.
The art was carried across Asia by the Arabs
who used linen rags instead of wood fibres for
their paper. The wonderful new material made its
firet appeerance in E^irope about 1200 AD. Even
In Ktie new world, cotton and linen rags were the
only things used in paper making until the dis-
covery of modern wood-pulp processing methods.
AU the time the art of paper making was
spreading across the continent, demand was
doubling for the twofold reason that education
was spreading, and the science of printing was
facilitating it. A heavy load was thrown on the
supply of raw material and efforts were made to
find substitute materials of which macerated* wood
pulp was the only one to get into commercial
production by 1850.
Four years later the soda-pul-p process was start-
ed In which the wood was cooked under pressure
in a solution of caustic soda. The caustic disolved
out most of the non-cellulose material and left a
puJp that eould be readOy bleached to a good
white.
In 1863 the sulphite cooiiing process was in-
vented. This way the wood was cooked with a
solution of calcium bisulphite and sulphurous aJcid,
and the product was a pulp sufficiently white in
colour for most purposes without bleaching. There
were great difficulties In handling the acid cook-
ing liquor so that this process did not develop too
quickly, but at the present time it is one of the
most widly used methods of producing chemical
■wood pulp.
Other processes have been developed
to break down woods such as pine, usin™ \t^^^''.\

Jan Rubes
Jan Riri>es, the basso who came
to C&nada in 1M8 from an initially
successful Buropean career, is fam-
iliar to Torontonlans for his many
roles on CBC opera. His Saturday
evening concert, the second in To-
ronto, gavt irrefutable evidence of
lx)tli his background and his abili-
ties.
The concert opened, perhaps un-
fortunately, with formal songs of
Caldara, Mozart and Beethoven.
Tliey seem iminspired, undoubtedly
because the singer was noticeably
tense and nervous. A flatness or
even roughness in the lowest ranges
was characteristic of these numbers.
But when Jan Rubes came to the
German ballads, the picture
changed. He relaxed, smiled, and
seemed really at ease with his Ian
guage. His voice, his face, and his
every dramatic gesture contributed
to making these songs, as well as
the later encore. "Song of the
Flea", both convincing and pleasur-
able.
The English songs, like those
Itahan ones with wliich the pro-
gram opened, were competently ex-
ecuted. The selection was unfortu-
nate, since there was the inevitably
unfavouraible comparison to Enzio
Pinza and William Warfield. The
singer seemed particularly unhappy
with the dialect of his encor, "Ol'
Man River".
Moreover, these songs never seem-
ed to come to life as did the "'Suite
of Czech Oslo vakian Folk Songs".
Here Jan Rubes was smilingly at
home. The appreciative applause
with which this suite was received,
I brought forth a tidbit from the
coming "Bartered Bride", Here it
was shown that little of the original
fun is lost by an English version of
the words.
Anyone who missed— and Eaton
Auditorimn was not full — the death
scene from "Boris Godounoff" is to-
day so much poorer in fine musical
experience. The restraint, insight,
and drama In this aria are convinc-
ing proof of Jan Rubes' operatic
gifts.

Last "niursday ©vening the U.C. Players Guild staged two one-i

line that we are all pretty wicked and on occasion we are all P"'
good, and the law of chance is unpredictable.

Seopati-as. will soon be making
w-^t House once more a place of
4c iind merriment. And this, for
Snv and sundry reasons, is truly
, niatter for rejoicing.
Revues arc one of the most de-

"Spring Thaw" and the "Arts

ffbicli make a great annual con-
tribution to the gaiety of life in
this rather inhibited metropolis.
In England, Revues still flourish,
the English having a genius for
tbis type of theatre, which has
produced some of their greatest
(taEC artists.
Revues are ideally suited to the
tastes and talents of University stu-
dents. They are gay, lively, and im-
pertinent—qualities for which stu-
dents are traditionally noted. It's
tlic perfecfc way to poke fun and
have fun while you're poking. The

timately specialize. This is exactly
how Noel Coward acquired his per-
fect timing and Gertrude Lawrence
learned the art of projecting her
radiant personality.
Two years ago, when I was audi-
tionmg dozens of actors, singers, and
dancers, for a series of summer' Re-
vues at my Red Barn Theatre, Lake
Simcoe, I was amazed liow frequent-
ly the most impressive performeis
turned out to be graduates of the
ALL-VARSITY REVUi:. This ex-
perience gave people like Jack Meri-
gold, Jack Northmore, and others,
a considerable advantage over those
whose training had been confined to
straight acting or singing.
The ALL VARSITY REVUE was
also responsible for bringing to my
notice the clever skits of Don Har-
ron and George McGowan, and
the skilful piano playing of Paul
Chabot, later incorporated Into
our Red Barn shows. Other per-
formers who are now making a
name for themselves in the pro-
fessional theatre, and who supple-
mented the splendid coaching they
received from Robert Gill with a
yearly frolic in these Varsity
musicals, Include Murray and Don
Davis, Charmlon King, Eric
House, Ted FoUowes, Dave Gard-
ner, and many others.
John Pratt, one of the finest com-
edians we have ever produced, re-
ceived all hi^ early training in the
McGill ■'Red Sc White Revues", as
did Roy Wolvin, hailed as the
"Canadian Cole Porter". Tliis type
of theatre training should produce
even greater rewardE for the par-
ticipants when TV production starts
In Canada. One of the few things
that has been clearly established,
by the operations in the U.SJV. of .
this new, and rather terrifying. :
medium of entertainment, is that
it creates an apparently unlimited
demand for artists of the Vaude-
ville and Revue type.
In my day at Varsity, several
of the Colleges and Faculties us-
ed to put on their own separate
shows. The ALL VARSITY RE-
VUE, combining the best talent
from the wh»rfe University, seems
a much better idea. Certainly bet-
ter than the last "U.C. Follies" in
which I participated, when, garb-
ed like one of the witches in
"Macbeth", they had me telling
fortunes in a tent pitched in one
end of the Hart House Common
rooms. This monstrous swindle
bad only one compensation as far
as I Was concerned, it gave me a
chance to tell a girl, whom I par-
ticularly disliked, that she was
going to be very unhappy in love
and end up a mednal missionary
in Darkest Africa. Yes— I'm sure
the Varsity Revues have come a
long way since then.
Just one last request to the pro-
ducers of the show. J>fs forget the
Subway this year. The people who
are supposed to be building it have
obviously forgotten it, so why
shouldn't you? And what If you
caJi't think of any other topic oi

ot February lOuin Convocation HbU.
This annual event is new to Toron-
as previous festivals were held
at McMast^r and OAC. It is non-
competitive, and consists of mixed
choirs from University of Western
Ontario. McMaster University, On-
tario Agricultural College, and from
Toronto, the Victoria College Glee
Club.
The idea of these annual festivals
grew out of a NFCUS conference
some six years ago, which suggested
that regional university music fes-
tivals be held. The original thought
was to make these meetings com-
petitive. However, It was decided
that sdch a system would be un-
wledly and that. In any case, the
idea of a competitive festival was
undesirable.
The Festival will consist of a
group of numbers by each choir,
with a final group of three numbers
presented by the massed choirs. The
music will be varied, with every-
thing from religious anthems to the
Irving Berlin setting of "Give Me
Your Tired. Your Poor". There is
no admission charge for the festival.
A collection is taken to defray the
travelling expenses of the choirs, al-
lowing the audience to pay what
fhey felt the concert is worth. Judg- ,
ing from contributions in previous '

ly valuable. I

The IntercoUesiate Wrestling
Team split with Buffalo and
Rochester on their weekend road
trip. They lost to the Kochester
powerhouse 24-8 but recovered in
time to paste Buffalo 19-9. Out-
standing men on the trip "were
Harry Robinson and Bill Chykaliuk
both of whom won both of their
bouts.
Heavyweight Robinson pinned Ed
Boss at Rochester in 5 minutes and
27 seconds. His best performance
came on Saturday when he upset
345 pound Leslie Molnar in the first
period. When Harry pinned Molnar,
who Avas 10th choice in the New
York Yankee football draft, the
•whole Toronto team carried Harry
olf on their shoulder*.
In Rochester WQd BUI Chytaliuk
despite some bad calls decldoned
Ough Porsythe. This was the first
win of the evening there and it
made things loot a lot brighter lor
tlie Blue grapplers. Chyle dropped
Julius Perllnl of the Buffalo team
ou Saturday by a score of 8-1.
In a very exciting bout NCAA
finalist Lmry Wilson of Rochester
beat Tommy Hatashita 10-1, Tom
made the whole bout rough going
for the winner but he didn't have
enough to turn the tables. Hata-
shita recovered the next day
to dump Ross Ccllino in the
seconcl round. Obviously very tirsd.
Tom thrilled the crowd with a top-
notch performance.
Newcomer Bill Henderson split
two decisions on the trip. He
diowJed his first encounter on time
advantage probably due to nervous-
ness but he looked a lot better the
next time out as he dccisioned I^eon
Wiggins 6-1. Joe Goldenberg ran up
against the toughe-st opposition on
tJie road. Puller of Rochester
pinned Joe at 5:3T and Repetski of
Buffalo downed him 3-0. Both of
tbe opponents had their better
wrestlers in the lower weight
brackets and this probiibly explains
the showing in those classes,
Paul Phelnn disqualified hi tlie
first match but he didn't let this
worry him for lie won a C-0 de-
cision in Buffalo. Orie Loucks had a
lot of trouble on the trip as he lost
two decLsions. Wnlly Pitman also
dropped both his bouts with a de-
cision Saturday after a faU Friday,
pffug Hamilton pinned his man to
an exhibition bout Saturday taking
only 57 seconds. No opponent was
found for his on Friday night.
The team didn't get back to their
hotel until 2:30 Saturday morning
after their first dual meet. Two of
the boys who were overweight spent
the afternoon sweating it out.
Coach Kirk Wipper remarked' that
lie was quite satisfied with the
team's showins but he was rather
displeased with the officiating in
Rochester.

Bill Hoyclic, the always de-
pendable Blues captain, who net-
ted ten points in the Varsity-
Western game at London, on Sat-
urday, In spite of his steady per-
formance the Varsity team ab-
sorbed a 58-to-40 shetlaoking at

JVs Upset 7-4
By OAC Icemen
Pataicy. who scored 21 points. He
broke Quickly when be got the ball
and used a running one-hand push
shot to deadly effect, much like
Jack Gray did for Varsity last year.
Ray Monnot, who has been Var-
sity's top scorer lor the past few
games, got three fouls in the flrst
quarter and was used s?)aringly aJ-
terward. He fouled out early in the.
last period, having gone scoreless.
I^e Blues went ahead 13-12 at
the end of ten minutes, as BUI
Huycke put in two set shots to tie
it up. A foul shot put the Blues one
ahead. Western went ahead in the
second frame as Patafcy got hot and
started sinking Shots.
Toronto went into the second half
vtith five points behind, but with
Lou Lukenda covering the back-
boards like a blanket and Fawcett
and Huycke plajing steadily on the
floor, the Blues went ahead 36-35.
Monnot fouled out fast in the
fourth period, and Fawcett and
Lukenda followed him soon after,
reminiscent of last year's game at
Western when Gray. Brennan, and
Glover all fouled out almost to-
gether. McNichol of Western join-
ed them almost immediately.
This fouling out, together with
Western's fast-paced st^le of play,
whipped the tension up. Western's
Walt Karabin was heaved from the
game after taking a swing at Garry
Glover. Karabin is a former team-
mate of Huycke at Central Y.
Knowing that Western played a
fast style of ball, the Blues took it
coolly and slowly to keep the pace
downrwith three men back work-
ing the ball in carefully and keep-
ing possession of the ball as much
as possible. As a result, they took
only 59 shots to Western's 77, sink-
ing a better percentage of their
tries than Western did. Pataky took
26 shots himself, almost half as
many as all the Blues put together.
LOU Lukenda, besides handling
rebounds well, was top scorer with
17. This makes him the Blues' top
scorer for the season. Fawcett and
Huycke played well in working the
spectively.
The Blues are almost flnishM
their road games, i^ay all their
leagufe games at home except tor
one at McMaster.

Sparked by the 4-goal effort of
wingman Jack Reeves, the OAC
hookey crew shocked the ismall
gathering at Guelph last Thursday,
and possibly themselves, by defeat-
ing the Varsity JVs 7-4. This is the
first time the Aggies have beaten
the Blues on their home ice since
1939. ^
JVs 69-51
Over OAC
The Varsity JV's started the ne»
basketball season on the right foot
Thursday by downing the Guelph
Aggies, 69-51. nae outcome Tras
neevT in doubt, as Varsity control-
led both backboards, with Kettle
and Stulac excelling in that de-
partment.
Bill Corcoran topped ail the
hoopsters, garnering 18 poiuti,
closely followed by George Stulac
with 14. "Sweets" Nielson and Karl
Switzer were the high men lor tbe
Aggies with 11 and 10 points re-
spectively. „
Although handicapped by a smaU
gym, Varsity sped to a 16-7 lint
quarter edge, completely outclas;-
ing the smaUer Guelph team. The
end of the first half saw the JV'i
coasting along with a 28-17 lead.
At the beginning of the secood
half, Guelph began to roU and tal-
lied 10 successive points on an ei*
f ective fast break before Varsity is-
covered. Carl Switzer was the pay-
off man on this play.
The most outstanding Pi^?^ '
the game was Doug Kettle, w
played a sterling defensive gami
besides taking time out to score s
LitUe OlUe Mandryk was alway*
effective, and finally hit the double
score column for 10 points. Garouj*
scored 9. Brown 6, and Miine i
round out the Blues scoring.
Reeves vac Johnny -on-the-spot
for all 4 of liis markers. He scored
the first two on long shots from the
blueline and Uie last pair on pass-
outs in front ol the net.
The Blues looked like a far dif-
ferent team from the one that de-
feated Waterloo 15-3 two weeks ago.
The small ^e of the rink might
have had something to do with it. i
All of the other 3 Aggies goals were !
scored from scrambles in front of
the net and the JV's seemed to
have trouble in clearing from that
area all night.
The game wasn't too rough as
Intercollegiate games go, although
Varsity's Bob WesUake s.pent quite
a long time in the cooler. He also
scored hia first goal in many a
moon.
The score might have been closer
except for the excellent work of
Wynch in the Aggies net, and some
glaring home town calls by thE
Guelph referees. The play of Var-
sity wingman Ernie Bodnar was also
impressive both offensively and de-
fensively. Bodnar scored one goal
but it was disallowed by the rtfer-
ee.
AH tovr Toronto p>ala w^e shi-
gles scored b5^ Yeo, Dies, WeStlalce
and Davison In that order. J. Mc-
Lean, Holmes and ToUeavan notch-
ed the other 3 A^ies goals.
Vic Seniors Win
Edge Meds 38-34
Vic Seniors dropped Pre-Meds
38-34 in one of the best games of
the season last Friday. Both teams
exhibited seme phenomenal shoot-
ing that left even the Sr. Blue
players who were watching the
game commenting on the play.
Vic scored two quick baskets in
the opening minutes and they were
never headed again. Then the teams
traded basket for basket through
out the fiist quarter, Jtm Goodfel
low took six shots and scored twelve
points to lead the shorp-shooting.
Goodfellow didn't score again In
the gome.
After the start ot the second
period both teams slowed down. Vic
gradually built up a lead until tliey
went up 26-16. Meds looked very
tired as they did their best to close
the gap. At the period's end the
Docs were within only seven points
of the winners,
Sparked by Tile who hooped 11.
the Pre-Meds boys closed t*\e gap
to as close as three pohits in the
last period. Vic managed to hang
onto thetr slim edge and the game
ended with the score 38-34.
Next to Goodfellow, Glauhi (8)
and Rogers H) were the best for
Vic. Copalieno with six was the next
best to Tile's pertormaooe for Pre-
Meda.

Tliink Canadian
Nationalism, as has been noted by Dr.
Tomey as well as vociferous Tories has
fait the Post Office. But it has taken on
* variety of expressions, some of which
reacli an imaeinative peak not usually
ussociated with governmental offices.
Of course, there is a tort of mundane
confusion within the Post Office as to
Its present status. In the phone book it
Is listed under the Government of Can-
ada, but the voice on the other end of
the line usually mutters that it is the
Canada Post Office. When pressed for
details, he might add that it Is the Do-
minion of Canada Post Office. In des-
peration, he simply concludes that "it's
just the Post Office". The only thing
that the post office information sei-vice
Is really sure about Is that letters and
parcels are no longer carried by the
Royal Mail.
A further, and more fanciful indication
of nationalism on the march are the
BlgTLs liberally sprinkled about the con-
fines of the post Office, advising every-
one to "Think Canadian". In order to
elaborate on tliis enigmatic phrase, large
iTn4ti -colored posters are placed beneath
the .signs. They are safety posters.
At first we wondered about the con-
nection between safety first and Think
Canadian. Finally, however, we found a
poster and sign which explained much.
The poster showed an over-turned canoe
— typically Canadian— with two people in
the water (most, likely Canadian). The
SHARE The Results
How successful has the SHARE cam-
paign been? How much money has been
raised? How much still must be collect-
ad t« make up the $11,000 objective?
Last Wednesday, the Students' Ad-
ministrative CoimcU requested the
SHARE committee to release this in-
formation. Although the official cam-
paign has been over now for more than
two weqks. no one seems to know how
the monetary matters stand. And the
committee has ignored the SAC request
to date.
Presumably students are interested In
the success or failure of a campaign to
Which they were asked to contribute.
If the campaign has not been a suc-
message pointed out that a little thought
would prevent such accidents.
Obviously the couple had been sitting
in the canoe (most likely on the thwarts,
OS Robert Taylor usually does) and what
is even more despicable, they had
probably been thinking American
thoughts. The canoe was rightly , upset-
it was a Canadian canoe.
However, this stUl leaves us wondering
as to what the Post Office means when
they urge us to think Canadian. If they
had said Think Canadien, we might have
toeen less puzzled and more concerned
with bilinguallsm.
But what is a Canadian thought? How
are we to be sure that when we think we
have a Canadian thought that it will
be considered Canadian by other Cana-
dians. Judging by the Massey Report.
Canadians cannot agree on any subject.
Even a "substantial majority" cannot
agree, unless of course they just don't
give a damn.
But a little Oanadianism goes a long
way. A. y. Jackson, in reviewing an ex-
hibition of Western Canadian artists, re-
marked that he did not particularly care
whether they -were influenced by the
United States, as long as the result was
art.
Perhaps the Post Office, too, should
simply try to stimulate thought, rather
than worry about its root, its branch
and its origin.
cess, .then students may also be Interest-
ed in devising ways and means of raising
more money — jazz concerts, candy sales,
masquerades— anything which the fertile
imagination of the college student can
produce. And if the campaign has been,
or is expected to be. a complete and un-
mitigated success, then there Is reason
for loud rejoicing.
Even il complete and final figiires are
not available, an interim report, as the
SAC recommended could be released. But
someone on the SHARE committee must
have a faint notion of how much money
has been collected. And If they don't,
then possibly students should begin to
worry.

The following is the first in a series of
articles by Michael Humphries. IV
Psychology, who attempts to define the
boundaries of science — something which
scientists occasionally, and society often,
tend to ignore.
A hue and cry typical of a witch hunt
could be detected in the recent frantic
vilification of science as the handmaiden
of the devil. The Intimation was that
science, a hardened old crone, thoroughly
corrupted by her partial knowledge of
questionable issues, is attempting to de-
stroy our fundamental institutions and
deny in the nature of man all that is
really good and valuable. This concept of
a witch may be applicable to the scien-
tist making observations on the moral
direction of our society, but it seems to
me that the theologian critics have the
metaphor inverted. A more accurate pic-
ture would be the scientist as a pure
young thing, tempted by the devilish ele-
ment of humanity hi hhn (for even the
scientist is human) to prescribe for the
social ills of the other troubled souls
around him. In doing this, he is infected,
not by any satanic element in science,
but by a hellish and most unscientific
overstepping of his only valid area of
operation. ^
The ultimate nature of man, the prob-
lems of what he should do and be, are
not scientific problems, and science can-
not malie pronouncements on these issues.
As we stated, scientists, being simul-
taneously human beings, can and do make
value judgements, but we must recognize
them for what they are to avoid further
useless bickering over the relative func-
tions of science and religion in society.
The operations of these two are quite
distinct.
SCIENCE is a method for obtaining
from nature knowledge about a certain
class of events, so that statement-s of re
lationship can be made. The method Sf
fairly rigorous and has characteristic
■ limitations. The events must be observable,
or inferred directly from the observable.
Propositions have to be empirically veri-
fiable or must have the possibility of be-
ing so tested. Por example, the proposition
that "the moon is made of green cheese"
is a hypothesis that could be tested if and
■when we reach the room. The statement
that "man is immortal" cannot t>e proven
either true or false empirically, and so ia
not a scientific issue.
There is another major restriction on
science which distinguishes it from re-
ligions. Scientific statements are never
certain, they are only probable. Those
who demand certainty would be better to
refer to other less humble
systani^
scientific statements are qualifie^j b„
phrases as "probably true",
things being equal'
dltions obtain". As knowledge
"If the p««,»t*'
these statements can be refined,
conclusions never change from
probability to ones of certainty, Th^" ''^
precise statements are still qualifi^jj"'""
example, the breaking point of a st^si^ '
can only be given as plus or rni^^'^
specific number of stress-hours. Stat- '
is one tool by which to refine your gt,
ments so as to express the probable h
gree of confidence with which the ^
elusion can be made. (Note, please

the social sciences, use statistic;
We repeat, then, that anyone

The scientist may describe what does hap.

one, a scientist by trade, propounds id^j
which you, as an adherent to a
cr political belief which claims absoiuu
authority for its statements, oppose,
cannot criticize his values as being "scieo
tiflc — damn them!''; you are entitled only
to say, "they are WRONG — damn him:
There is, as we have seen, no basi-

After Plane Downed In Jungle
Toronto's globe - trotting SAC

trip to Rio De Janeiro. Wax flew
south with NFCUS President Jean
De Margerie to attend a conference
of Pan American student unions.

pilot was forced to land at a Bra-
zilian Air Force emergency landing
field on a plateau in the jungle. The
two Canadians spent a day wait-
ing for spare parts to lie flown from
Rio de Janeiro.
Wax said that there were sil
delegations at the conference from
countries ruled by dictators, and
that these delegates wanted the
proposed union to act as a means
of consolidating South American
students' oppression in their coun-
tries. Some of these groups, lie said,

archists, syndicalists, (a form of
communian) and communist jouth
who had come to the congress to
talie a stand against imperialism,
colonialism and capitalism. As an
example he said that the Uruguay-
an delegation brought forward 60
resolutions which laid the blnme tor
illiteracy, and other troubles af-
fecUng their countries on the door-
steps ot tile United States and other
capitalist countries.
The Congress was dominated by
radical groups such as these, ac-
corduig to Wax, and their concept
of the conference was not to meet
and discus exchanges of studenta
but to form a new society. Tlieir
main interest was in arousing op-
position to colonialism, imperialism,
and foreign investment.
The conference was .scheduled to
end today but when Wax left Rio
on Friday he felt that the South
Americans could talk about some of
the Issues raised for another six
months. No decisions were reached
by the five plenary commissions
formed at the conference and Wax
said that any final decisions would

One of Hhe newest services es-
tablished for the convenience ot
students on the campus is the
TnaJisiation Bureau. This service
was set up last PaU under the aus-
pices of the Students' Administra-
tive OounoU at the suggestion of
Dr. P. Helchelhelm of University
College.
There have been about fifteen
calls from people wanting help in
ti-anslating foreign languages
some of them quite unusual. One
Czech student wrote f'^'-'L.'J
Italian and came to the Bureau
to have it translated into English,
The article was accepted by Mac-
lean's magazine for publication

are expected to throw light on
some Chinese explorers who may
have crossed Behring Strait to
America.
Miss Street was also recently
given a cycle of Indian poems of
an Indian tribe which migrated
from the southera part of the
United States up along the coa^v
to British Columbia. These poems
constitute a complete ritual of sun
worship and point to an Asiatic
bacicground. The name ol the sun
god of the Yeuchi. an ancient seft-
going Chinese people, is mentioned
frequently throughout the poems.
One student has been contacted by
the Bureau who may be able to
translate the documents it the
Chinese used is not too archaic.
A woman student recently came
Ulto the SAC office with some let-
ters a friend had found Jjehind "
panel in a castle
in Germany
These letters were decorated with
the Eoyal crest and belonged to
SI San Boyal family, '>^-
letters wer# apparently written
around the 1860's and were ad-
dressed to the Grand Duke of Old-
enburg and to a well-known Ger-
man Count.
The Translation Boreao Is simply
an agency which has on file the
names, addresses and ^boDe num-
bers of University students who
are able to translate various for-
eign lanffuages. When people
oome to the bureau with a lan-
guage problem, they are referred
to a person on file wbo is able to
translate that particular language.
Of the G5 people listed with the
Bureau, some con translate such
languages as ancient Greek, Ice-
landic. Old Norse and Serbo-
Crotian.
I think this service will be very
useful and will improve the stand-
ard of the University, because no-
body in the future will have the
excuse of not knowing a language
when an important paper is pub-
lished in a foreian langu^e,"

On Campus
Muddy Spring
By JOE SCANLON
Tis Spring! The boids is on the
wing! Muddy days are here again!
The front campus is in its usual
muddy spring condition. Officials
of the superintendent's office are
Issuing an appeal to students to
please walk around the front cam-
put. They admit it's a long way
'round but nevertheless if you
want to keep the front campus
beautiful — keep off!
Next Summer when visitors are
strolling tlirough our campus we
want them to see something we can
be projd of. Think of the poor soc-
cer players who come thousands of
miles to play soccer for the U. of T.
"When you have Just twenty seconds
to make that lecture, remember
it's only being read anyway; so why
not walk around?
The broken-down fence' which
should still be in hiding is there for
a purpose. This fence is going to be
repaired in the near future. Al-
though it's easy to step over it or
for pigmies to crawl underneath it
why not walk around.
You offenders who wear toe rub-
bers, beware! The superintendent's
office is ccllecting these specimens
of human frailty and keeping them
as a record of your past tni^deeds.
If you repent, liowever, you may
visit the disniteries' offices and re-
trieve your wandering rubbers. A
polfte attendant will fit you witli
your own size when you sign a
document to remain off the quag-
mire and murky depths decorating
the perspective of the bored stu-
dents from the southern rooms in
University College.
Of course if you are sadly in need
of toe rubbers and are willing to
sign on the dotted line you may
secure these step-ins by simply put-
ting in an appearance at Siracoe
Hall.
Perhaps you never realized it but
there Is srane lovely scenery on the
outer limits of this thoroughfare.
On one side you pass the library.
whose circulation of books per stu-
dent has fallen down, then you
pass the hallowed regions of that
wonder of wonders the medical
building. After a brief trip into the
gully you reach the heights- of the
little red skule house.
In the other direction you first
pass Knox College, then you can
either stroll by Simcoe Hall or
walk in and pay your fees that are
now overdue.
If you don't want the round mud
bath presently existmg to be a per-
petual monument to lazy student^s
and a practice ground for the water
polo team just stride the Jew extra
steps and presei-ve the grass for
future generations.
Dean Of Law
At Open Lit
The Junior Common Room will
become a "no-man's land" at 8:01)
tonight when Dean Cecil Wright of
the University Law School speaks on
legal education in Ontario, accord-
mg to UC Lit President Dave Rose.
"This is a very controversial
question" said Literary Director Al
Strauss. "The University is atteanpt-
ing to gain equal status with Os-
goode Hal! in the length of time re-
quired to produce licensed lawyers.
The purpose m inviting Dean
Wright is to provide the students in
UC, who are contemplating law,
with a speaker who can outline the
.■situation accurately."
"Both the University Law School
and Osgoode Hall are made up of a
goodly proportion of UC men. Rose
pointed out. "This will be an op-
portunity for UC men, law school
men, and Osgoode Hall boys, to dis-
cuss the different sides of the legal

o Talk
Sounds Like 20 Trams
But It's Only A Scream
In an imusuai experiment yester-
day, four -engineers found that Var-
sity reporter Denise Richards makes
more noise than anything else on
the camjms. The quietest plEice on
the tr^ was none other than the
famous KCR.
The experimenters, foiu" final
year electrical students, were carry-
ing out one of the regular experi-
ments in the light and acoustics
lab. They travelled from place to
place around the campus and rec-
orded the noise at each stop.
Deiiis« screamed into the mike at
a distance of only six inches; so
tliis explains the remarkable re-
sults. The noise that resulted was
roughly equivalent to that resulting
from twenty street cars at twenty
feet.
Another stop was made at the
nut display on the second floor of
the parliament buildings. People in
the buildings make very little rack-
et. However, a curious policeman
questioned the scientists. After hav-
ing the apparatus explained to hhn
he commented, "I still don't get
it."
A suspicious waitress in the Ehn
Grill was quite wary of the outfit
and refused to approach close
rnough to serve the customers. The
manager in the Elm Grill com-
iiented. "I think you're crazy." Pa-
trons in Murray's Restaurant were
not even aroused when the Varsity
photographer took a picture of the
experimenters.
All the readings were -taken on a
jound level (noise) meter which is
an electro -acoustic device to evalu-
ate noise found under different
environments. This little gadget
-onsists of a microphone mounted
on a recording device and enclosed
in a case suitable for carryli^.
The procedure starts off in a
soundproof room in the engineering
building where the reading on the
instrument is at the lowest level.
Then they proceed to the power
.plant near the Medical Building.
There the rotary generator reaches
a top limit of U2 decibels. Normal
sound of offices such as the Regis-
trar's would give a reading of 66
decibels.
Otlier readings were as follows:
KOR &2 dib., Denise Richards 118
db.. busy street comer 80 db.
Radio listeners will probably un-
derstand the device a little better
if they remember how Arthur God-
frey judges his contestants.

in the Burwash Hall Senior Men's
Common Room at 8 p.m. this even-
ing. His topic will be "An Outline

Harrison said that he would out-
line the sti-uctui-e of trade unions
in general, as well as describing the
foi-m they take hi Canada, and
destroy some "popular misconcep-
tions". There will be a question
period after the talk.

the program.
Nichols hi his capacity of Hart

able experience in solving marital
problems. He said, "In entering a
discussion like tliLs we must realize
there are two defhiite positions —
church and civil law— and bound
up with the question of divorce is
the wliole problem of the relation-
ship of cliurch and state. What
right either has to dictate to tho
other is, of course, subject of an-
other discussion."
Mr. Emerson has said that he did
not feel any changes were neces-
sary with the present laws, and his
position has been reinforced by tlie

Delayed For Two Years
Song Book On The Way
The long-awaited University of
Toronto song book should be ready
next September according to LaiTy
Heisey, IV Trinity, in ciiarge of the
project. Containing words and mus-
ic to 150 college and fraternity
songs the pocket size book will sell
for about $1.00.
Tbe idea for the sons hook was
first presented to tho Students' Ad-
ministrative Council in 1949 by
Larry's brother Alan, who graduat-
ed last year from Engineering. The
last official song Ijook was publish-
ed in 1922, while other universities
have kept I heirs up to date.
After copyright difficulties and
deciding which of Skule's bawdy
ballads couldn't be used, a group of
150 songs have been chosen. These
include college and fraternity songs,
sea chanties, drinking songs and
other favourites. The book will have
the melody for all songs and will be
Illustrated with cartoons,
Big difficulty is in cutting down
expenses. Heisey said. Mrs. Audrey
Dickie, SAC secretary, has been
typing the lyrics, and Bill Mpjrwick,
grad, has collected and written out
the music.
The music hiis now to be drawn
by hand on white cards to be photo-
graphed for the final engravings
for the book. Heisey said that at
present a group cd seven volunteer
■'music artists" was drawing the
music and wo^ld like more to help.
The SAC has eranted $200.00 to
cover expenses in preparing the
book. It is hoped the sales of the
book will eventually pay for all ex-
penses involved.

If you were a citizen of Washington or Los An-
geles, you would have a fair chance of becoming
quite depraved right now. But if you are a New
Yorker or an Ontarian, you can relax. Everything
has been taken care of. The dangers of exposure to
an Immoral French film, LA RONDE, have been
prevented.
For "the time being," LA RONOE is banned
from Ontario and New York.
This week. I am feeling terribly deipraved. And
it Isn't from contact with Mickey SpiUane's real
blondes either. That's allowed, you see, as long as
you have a quarter in your jeans. My demoral-
ized, or perhaps "inimoralized,'* condition is a re-
sult of seeing LA RONDE last week.
LA RONDE is baseJ on Arthur Schnitzler's
Reigen, a play that provoked riots In Austria when
it was first played, because of its "brutal" atti-
tude to love. Later, Reigen in book form ran into
American censorship in the days of Comstockery.
If opposition to lleigcn (or LA RONDE) is based
on its sex, the opposition doe-s not make much
sense. I,A RONDE is a cold cynical view of the .
place of sex in the lives of "civilized" folk. The
film is subtle, sensitive, humorous and adult
The routtj concerns ten liaisons between citi-
zens of Vienna, with one partner in each coupling
being a part of the following episode. There is
little suggestiveness. hip-swaying or direct front-
al approaches to passion. And eacli liaison ends in
disillusion and remorse. Those involved include
Simone Simon. Pernand Gravet, Danielle E>arT-
ieux, Gerard PhiUpe, and Anton Walbrook.
As someone has commented, LA RONDE is a
"terribly moral" film, but it will be appreciated by
the adult only. Others will probably find it either
meaningless and much ado about naught, or giggle
uncomfortably at it.
In a film era of mammary emphasis, LA RONDE
Is as suggestive and titillating as the statistical
tables in The Kinsey Report. But you can't see It
here.
DISTANT DRUMS (Imperial) is another "dif-
ferent" western. Notice how many "different"
westea-ns we're getting? But DISTANT DRUMS
isn't that different. The difference comes from
the use of a new locale: the Florida Everglades
in Technicojor.
Otherwise tnis is a western that has Bad Indians
(Seminoles) chasing Gary Cooper and his band
of Good Guys throug'h the swamp. This is undoubt-
edly one of the most energetic films in a long
while. Instead of a climactic chase sequence, the
whole If DISTANT DRUMS is a chase.
There are short breaks in the flight, of course.

Seminoles keep on coming, and we take a L

with a problem of some perplexity and concern
Her costume in the film is a thin blouse and thin
skirt. Yet, they remain intact despite the terrible
race through the deadly Everglades "from which
no one emerges alive.''
Everything ends quite happily though, which
may be why pressure groups haven't squawkea
about the sex or violence in this flim. The Semin.
oles have been dealt with. General Zach Taylor's
forces come to relieve the brave little troop. And
down the white sand of the beach, throwing out
her arms and her chest, goes Miss Aldon to meet
Cooper, and things are just fine.
After the frantic running and heavy breathing
of the Gary Cooper western, YOU CAN'T BEAT
THE IRISH (International) is a nice relaxed little
bit. Tlie Irish, judging by this British import, are
a garrulous bunch, never did you hear so much
talking. But much of the blarney is fun. and you
probably will enjoy it.
YOU CAN'T BEAT THE IRISH isn't much more
than a skit, in which a Shakespeai-e- quoting
ne'er-do-well (Jack Warner) hoaxes a rillage into
believing he is to come into a fortune. His status
in the village changes considerably, and he man-
ages to set up his grown-up children into the
manner they would like to assume. Barbara MuDen
mugs her way free-hand through this comedy as
the embattled and puncled wife and mother.
And maybe you too will see the resemblance be-
tween the loquacious ne'er-do-well and some of
the unforgetable undergraduates you have met.
More Men Needed
For Laval Weekend
The SAC reported yesterday that
enough girls have applied for the
Laval Centenary weekend, but
that more boys are needed for the
delegation.
The group leaves Toronto at 9.15
Thursday morning, and will return
Sunday night. Application is open
to all faculties and yeaiis. Laval
has promised a memorable week-
end, and is even going to get dates
for those who wish them.

"(h Buffon biology talies on its own
, „, For Leibnitz life is not only
hinting bu; a forming power; we
lust find a derivative in origmal
lorces Fusing the organic and aes-
inetic philosophies of Leibnitz and
Shaftesbury gives us the "Harmony"
(Uebnitz) of "niward form"
iSha(tsbury).
In this era psychology is the basis
■ol epistemology and we must create
tue human mind anew to under-
stand Its suuc.ure. Mind for Leib-
cltz becomes a mirror of reality, and
so of the universe; not a sum of
image but a whole composed of
lormative forces. The tast of psy-
chology is to elucidate their forces
and understand their reciprocal re-
lations. Not the content but the
energies of the mind are to be
studied.
In religion the intellectual centre
of gravity moves from a concept of
God to the concept of the "form" of
each science. Opposed to this, Pascal
tries to show the powerlessness of
i-eason and the movement is to-
ward Shaftesbury's imminent, aes-
thetic and legal theodicy. Rousseau
mat society not the individual re-
sponsible. Lessing says religion be-
longs to neither the temporal nor
eternal, but is both in one. Analyti-
cal Reason is replaced by synthetic
and static reason by dynamic.
Historically Bayle makes facts the
end of knowledge while Montes-
quieux emphasizes the sphit as the
end. Thus the latter expects from
the advancement of knowledge a
new form which is dependent on
the whole. In Leibnitz, Lessing and
Herder human nature Incomes a
moulding clay which assumes dif-
ferent forms in different situations.
In Law Grotius says reason is the
law that antidates all others and
therefore the church as well as the
state must submit. This docs not
hold for long, for here too, there
is a shift from reason 10 experience.
Men are united not by reason but by

inclinations, appetites and passions.
In this clash ol doctrines the inner
spiritual unity of the age appears
once more in a new light.
Aesthetically there is an intellec-
tual synthesis ol literary criticism
and philosophy. Boneau belives that
genre in art parallels that of natural
objects and its chief concern is ex-
pression. Condillac bees a unity
between art and science in language
and use of symbols wliile Boileau
transforms aesthetic ideals into
sociologica! ones. The development
moves from the nature of things to
that of man ab generis t* psychol-
ogy. For Bonhours process and em-
ergence of unexpected forms is most
important. Bubos establishes intro-
spection and in Hume aesthetic
judgement over the logical; the
latcer may change, but the former
is always the same. 'The Poet,"
says Baumgarten, "endows Ihe cold
symbols of the language of daUy
life and of Science with the breath
of life; the life of itnowledge.
Cassirer has, I think, shown that
order does come out of chaos in
the intellectual as well as other
worlds; that enlightenment thinking
cannot be seen in its clearest form

As far as we can see, there are two possible standards of rrlticlsni
which can be applied to the literary efforts of university students.
Some critics maintain that the moment you pen a Une of poei-ry or
write a few paragraphs of deathless prose, you are automatically subject
to the some standards of ciiticism by which Homer and Di>nt« are
appraised. You may be granted -some consideration because you are a
novice, but in the long run the end for you and Dante is the saint
to create— and therefore the critical standards applied to your worls
should be the same.
Then there are critics who hold that students should be encnuaged
to write at any cost. The very fact that a student considers something
worth writing about in his own mind, and follows through by expressing
himself on paper is enough. That fact is that the work is its own
Justification.
We are incUned to think that the latter standard is applicable
first to children, and second to ijeople who are not aware of tto
tugh achievements and traonions of the past. Presumably. Arts suidentj

of The Christian Science Monitor
hss i\Titten a short account ot

liie past fifty years. Or perhaps we
liad better narrow it down and con-
less at once that Mr. canham's
e World at Mid-Century is, in real-
'f.v tJie western world with a huge
emphasis on the crisis that faces
American civilization.
Very general chapters are pre-
sented outnning the development of
modern medicine, music, literature.
Politics, education, theology and
«onien. a communist ideology is
Mtsented as the alternative which
^erica must face if she does not
l«m how to use her democratic
freedom for truly spiritual ends.
Modern science affirms Christian
Scientist Canham's conviction that
"ic things ot the spirit are much
mote pertinent than the tangible
"lings of this world in directing
"lan's course, in its conclusion that
""le whole objective universe of
matter and energy, atoms and
'tsrs, does not exist except as a
construction of the consciousness,
edifice of conventional symbols
Sfiaped by the senses of man."
, <^anham finds another support

'h the influence of mind over mat-
in the current trend in modern
medicine to attribute physical ill-
'"^Kes to a psychomatic cause. It is

INCKEDIBLE NEW YDBK by Llord Mor-
ris. AmboHodor, 1951, $6.50.
Probably the most succinct state-
ment anyone could malte about "In-
credible New Yorli" is "Wow!" Its
one of the few words capable of de-
scribing the astonishing amount of
material Lloyd MoiTis, co-auUior
with John Van Druten of 'The
Damask Cheek", has tried to com-
press into the nearly four hundred
pages of his latest social history.
Sven at that, "Incredible New
York" is social history in rather a
limited sense, lor it confines itself
almost exclusively to describing
very high or very low hfe, mostly
both at once. The tremendous
amount of material Morris amasses
is notliing if not enthrallmg, but it
may give you a bad case of literary
indigestion. .
"licredible New York" purports
to describe the history of New York
from 1850 to 1950 but the largest
portions of its pages (and, I sus-
nect the author's interest) is oc-
cupied with the seventy-odd years
before the depression. He describes
the expansion of New York in tire
eighteen-fifties, some spooky seanc-
bloomer girls, famous hostesses,

Tijesday, February 5
lie iShoot, He Doesn't Score!
By MAt CRAWFORD
For a few weeks it looked as though Toronto was going
to wake up and rise out of its customary lethargy in respect
to track and field. The first big indoor meet here in fifteen
years was scheduled tentatively for February 23 at the Col-
ieeum, which was to be loaned by the CNE free of charge
provided nothing profitable came along in the meantime.
' Something profitable has come along — an evangelist
from the Deep South who has been laying them low out west
for some weeks, a "Dr." A. C. Valdez who bills his show as a
revival and healing campaign. He has reserved the Coliseum
from the tenth to the twenty-four.
We do not blame the CNE directors for preferring a deal
which win probably net them something up in four figures;
tJiey ai e in the business, and local track teams which have
been using the Coliseum for work-aiits have not paid a
nickel for light and other maintenance expenses.
However, a growing interest in track and field, through
the efforts of organizations like Lloyd Percival's Toronto
Track and Field Club, and Fred Foote's East York Track
Club, has been promising to put Toronto on the map in in-
ternational competition in this sport. But Toronto has not
had an indoor track meet to compare with the ones which are
staged annually in Hamilton and Montreal, since 1936, we
believe it was, when Glen Cunningham came up to form the
feature attraction of a meet at Maple Leaf Gardens.
The meet was a moderate financial success, but evident-
ly not enough to warrant making it an annual affair.
In Hamilton, the 92nd Highlanders annually stage an
international meet which packs the armories and attracts
gome of the biggest names and colleges in the field, Cana-
dian and American. Last year, there was Don McEwan of
Michigan U. (Ottawa) in the mile, Ellis of NYU, Georgj
Lynch of Illinois (Toronto), and McCardle of Seton Hall in
the 1,000, Charlie Slade of Seton Hall and Bob Maiocco of
New York in the 600, Maurice Curotta of Seton Hall (Aus-
tralia), Don Stonehouse of Georgetown U. (Hamilton) and
Hatch of NYU in the 300 and the 60. It ranks as one of the
finest sport spectacles in Canada, we believe. Indoor track
is more exciting than outdoor to watch, since the fans are
closer to the track, and the runners come around about three
times as often on the standard 160 yard circuit.
There is no reason why funds could not be raised to set
up a board track in the Gardens, or at Varsity Arena for
that matter, to stage a similar meet here. The Coliseum with
its clay track makes an e.^cellent running surface although
the lack of banking on the turns would make good sprints
impossible. It is not as centrally located as the other two
places, and would not likely attract as big a crowd.
An indoor meet, staged on a sufficiently large scale,
with established stars as well as local talent, would not take
long tq go over in a big way if given a year or two of push
ing. Maybe even this year, being an Olympic year.
• • •
While we are still in a suggesting mood, we might add
that it is time a decent ventilation system were installed in
the upper reaches of Hart House, wliere the track is. At pres-
ent the only air obtainable is from the windows, which blow
a cold draught right across the track if opened wide. If they
are not all opened wide, runners in a long race or working out
bard nearly suffocate. ■ ■ . . . .

Jack Ross goes down to his

hockey action from iast Friday's
game. It was spectacular stops
like this one that kept Varsity
in the win column and the
game. Norm Fox is shown
huddled with Al Fasan helping
out Ross tt make the save. An
unidentified Toronto player is
shown behind the net. The Uni-
Tcrsite de Montreal player who
made the shot is not in the pic-
ture. The Blues returned to
expected form in the game and
upset the league leaders by the
surprising score of 9-4. Two of
the stars rot shown in the pic-
ture were team captain Ernie
Frey and Jack Wheldrake, who
each scored three and two
goals resrcctively, to lead the
Blues in the scoring depart-
ment.

posite was true for all, the big
games ended in ties after some
good net minding and close calls.
Hie biggest pounding of the day
was administered by SPS who
pounced on Architecture B and
dropped them 54-10. The Skule-
men took a 24-3 lead in the first
Quarter and just kept piHng it on.
Only in the last quarter did the
score i-esembie a normal one for
there the winners outscored the
architects only Bararid with
,15. Covert with 10, and Carr with
9 all had field days for the Skule-
men as they ran up the score.

team trounced Vic Hostlers 41-12.
The Mikemen went up 15-0 in the
first period and then slowed it
down to a runaway. Jerry
O'Dwyer spaiked the winners with
20 and Vieggo Rambuch trailed
him with 14.
Pre-Mcds and Junior Vic staged
- tight hockey encounter over at
Varsity Arena. Jardlne was the
big man on the ice as he scored
both of the goals for Vic. Despite
his good showing Cappalino and
Arnold each drove home a counter
for the future Docs to leave the
final score deadlocked.
There were only two penalties
in the hockey game and this was
indicative of Uie play. Both teams
tried to shove in tlie winner at the
end of the second period: but bar-

swim meet over the weekend. The Blues' swimmers dow
the hapless Buffalo team 56-28. In their win the Varsity ^^"^
set two pool records. George Stulae cut five seconds off^?
150-yard medley relay time and Bill Mcllroy cut the pS^
yard back record by one minute and three seconds. "*
Complete results
Toronto won seven of the ten
events at the meet losing only the
diving, the four hundred yard re-
lay, and the fifty yard free style.
BiTindage of the Buffalo team won
the diving contest and was really
outstanding. He beat AI Roger
and Hugh Sutherland of Toronto,
two very good divers.
Doug Gibson of the Blues won
two firsts, as he topped the swim-
mers in the 100 and the 220 yard
free style events. George Stu-
lae, Bill Mcllroy and John Bate
also scored two wins apiece swim-
ming on their relay and one other
event.
Perhaps the most surprising
thing that happened was Toi-onto's
loss in the 440 yard relay. The
swimmers were undoubtedly tired
out by this time and this may ex-
plain the loss. John Stulac com-
mented that the easy victory was
a surprise as it was expected that
Bufftilo University would be a
much better team than the State

gestion, claiming that graduates of the school
should immediately be able to earn their bread
and butter, though they might not be great legal
minds.
This was precisely what the Dean was against.
He and his supporters insisted that the lawyer
should have a thorough bacitground in jurispru-
dence, labour law, international law and other
subjects that might not pay off in dollars and
cents for the average lawyer, but would provide
what tliey felt to be an absolute necessity in the
formation of a lawyer,
"The philosophical ideas behind law and legal
order were being ignored", explains Dr. Wright.
"Men were being trained only for the tricks of
the practice. But university must teach much more
than mere mechanics. Medical courses are geared
for public health, not for merely practicing medi-
cine. The lawyer must develop and seek solutions
for the problems of social living, to help people,
groups and countries to live together. Law is,
after all, applied humanities, applied philosophy
and applied sociology."
But the Benchers could not see Dr. Wright's
point of view. So he resigned, in protest against
the turning back of the clock. And less than two
months later, he was invited to Join the faculty
of the University of Toronto as Dean of the
School of Law. Here he continues the "fight be-
tween a narrow professionalism with aU the em-
phasis on training and know-how, and % broad,
liberal education in law."
Tbe School of Law enjoys an excellent reputa-
tion. "We are better known in the rest of the
world than in our own province." says Dean
Wright. Inquiries and graduate students come
from countries as far away as China, the British
West Indies and Ireland.
"We're looking for what the other provinces
give us, equality and fair treatment". Dr. Wright
explains. Gradua.tes from the School are penal-
ized now by Osgoode, iiy being forced to t'-ke an
additional year.
The School of Law replaces and coiL..„;iably
enlarges the old Honour Iaw c»urse. "We've taltea
it out of the Arts courses and put it on a pro-
fessional basis, OS In the other provinces and tho
United States, to equip students for admittanc©
to Practice"', Courses in jurisprudence and com-
parative law have been introduced under Dr.
Priedmann.
"Comparative law is almost coo^Ietely neglect-
ed in Canada. The nine common law provinces
know very little a^x)ut the civil law system ol
Quebec. And Canada until now has produced
little of a juristic nature aside from textbooks".
The School is faced with the paradox of an in-
creasing faculty and a decreasing studsnt b^dy,
pointed out Dr. Wright. "Our student enrolment
will always be small until the disability of the
extra year is removed". There are 65 students in
the whole School, as compared with 700 at Os-
goode.
Dean Wright is celebrating his twenty-fiftii
year of teaching. A native of London, Ontario, he
was a gold medallist from both the University of
Western Ontario, and Osgoode Hall. He enmed his
degree of Doctor of Juridical Science at the
Harvard Law School, an honour shared by only
three other Canadians, and In 1921 became a
lecturer at Osgoode.
After twenty years of teaching, he was for a
year and a half, the youngest Dean ever to hold
that office in the history of the institution. Ho
was made a King's Counsel in 1933, and has re-
ceived Honorary Ll.D. degrees from the Univer-
sity of Western Oniirio and the University of
British Columbia. In 1946 he resigned after" ten
years from the editorship of the Canadian Bar
Review, but continues as editor of the Dominion
Law Reports and the Canadian Criminal Ciises.
"The ultimate aim is to establish a national,
rather than a provincial school of law, free from
control by the professions. There it w^.uld be pos-
sible to carry on graduate work, which is almost
non-existent in this country." Dean Wright
stressed the need in Canada for law schools like
those at Harvard, Yale and Columbi.i. "Training
here is rigorously limited to the individual prov-
ince. There should be an inter -mingling of stu-
dents fro mthe whole country'".
Dean Wright smns up the situation in this way.
"The values of living are involved in .-lolving the
problems of living. We must take the law out of
mothtoalls and make it live!"

Another Approach
Aid, Not War
In the following article Mr. Catto, a First Year Em-
manuel student, suggests a new approach to world problems,
an approach which he feels would prepare us for World
Government.
By CHJVRLES CATTO
Indian Summer
T}iree months from now— if all goes well— forty Cana-
dian students will be winging their way across the Pacific
Ocean. Sun-tan oil. mosauito lotions, short pants and pith
helmets will be spilling out of their bags. They will be bound
for India, to take part in the fifth International Summer
Seminar.
To many people, they will only be going on a joyride,
seeiiur the beauties of the Orient on someone else's money.
And To a certain e.\tent, this is true; certainly they will see
India's beggars, and her temples ; her ruins and her newest
irriijat on projects. But for these tourists there will be no
«afaris, no tiger hunts or dancing slave girls.
For they will have gone, not only to see the land, but
also to meet their fellow students in Indian universities, and
to try to find (in five short weeks) some of the things which
make their brown-skinned brethren tick.
The seminars are, especially, an attempt to set up over
• short period of time an international community of uni-
yersily students and professors. In this they strive towards
a world university community — the aim of World University
Service, the Canadian branch of which (International Stu-
dent Service) sponsors the seminars.
At the seminars, personal friendships grow up which
bridge differences in color, language and religion. These '
friendships— or their memories — should continue long after OUR READERS WRITE
the principals have left university and have grown to the
economic, social and political leadership of their lands; they
could become one of the strongest layers of mortar binding
the world into one undivided house.

*THilitarIsm has become an American trait.
Daring the decade that we reached our social
maturity, war has been made an almost neces-
sary aspect of 20th century living."— The Daily
CaUfornian.
Yes, militarism seems to be here to stay for a
while. But it's doing things to people. Many o£ us
have heard veterans tell their experiences in lan-
guage similar to these words from, an Americaji
soldier, printed in The Atlantic Monthly, February
1946: "Wliat kind of war do civilians suppose we
fought any way? W^e shot prisoners in cold blood,
wiped out hospitals, strafed lifeboats, killed or mis-
treated enemy civilians, finished off the enemy
wounded, tossed the dying in a hole with the dead,
and in the Pacific boiled the flesh off enemy skulls
to make iable ornaments for sweethearts, or
carved their bones into letter openers. We topped
off our saturation bombing and burning of enemy
civilians by dropping atomic bombs on two nearly
defenceless cities, thereby setthig an all-time
record for instantaneous mass slaughter."
That's what modern war does to people; it de-
stroys mind as well as body, of both sides. War
anihilates spiritual values along with flesh and
blood, obliterating truth, reason, and all the
elements of morality. War elicits the most bestial
in our nature and in our culture: another world
war might well be the final 'blasphemy of homo
sapiens.
Few university students will deny this; but who
will say more? Are we yet big enough to admit that
modern wars are KVERYONE'S fault? The root
causes of militari5;n were and are in all of us, in
our selfishness, ignorance, prejudice, and greed:
negatives deriving from the lack of a great con-
structive common striving for the whole human
race. Social psychologists tell us that war can be
avoided; war is not born into men, it is built into
men. No race, nation, or social group is inevitably
warlike. Pi-ustrations and conflicting interests
which lie at the roots of twentieth- century wars,
can be reduced and redirected by social engineer-
ing.
We can see that world wars do not achieve their
intended goa-.s tjiyway. A few years ago we were
supposedly fighting to free thj world from "tyr-
anny". Oiu- "free" side, the Americans, British,
Russians a.nd Chinese were all good guys, "our
heroic brotf.iers-in-arms". The Germans, Italians
and Japs, however, were all bad guys, "fascist
^beasts", to be exact. But now those "courageous
heroes of Stalingrad" who we declared would never
be forgotten, are "dirty Reds". Well, what were we
fighting for?
Today it seems that anybody who hates Com-
munism is "a friend of freedom", which term ap-
parently includes such paragons of virtue as
Franco, Alfred Krupp. and Chiang-Kai-Shek. Also,
in spite of the fact of Allied military victory in the
last ' two v:m-s, the number of our opponents is
somehow increasing. In World War I there were
140 million people on the other side. In the last
wai*. we fought 300 million; but this time there
are almost a billion lining up against us. Free-
dom is certainly having quite a struggle with tyr-
anny! Yet if we thought it would benefit hi -'

Lectures: A Solution
leaves Big Business as the only remaining source of income,
an almost-virginal field in the realm of seminar finances.
The ISS might find ripe poking here; if it doesn't the site
of the seminar may have to be changed from Raja-land to
Hogtown.
The jump from $12,000 to $65,000 is a big one. But to
envisage a seminar in India, ISS must have figuratively don-
ned its seven-league boots. True, the step was foreseen in
1951. when for the first time Asian students participated in
the seminar, and the theme changed from a comparison be-
tween Europe and North America to one between the East
ftnd West.
But last year's seminar was still in Canada. This one is
in India. The students won't be able to — can't be expected to
— absorb even one-hundredth of that ancient land during
their stay there. But at least they won't be learning about
India second hand.
There will be no "country-club atmosphere" to dull their
interest in their studies; rather they should be stimulated by
the sights about them. Instead of hearing lectures by Amer-
ican experts on India, they can visit the temples and markets
themselves.
Through personal observation they -will learn some of
the problems of India, and maybe — if they really look — they
will be shocked out of their native Canadian complacency
•nough to do something about them. " ' ' '
in
his com-se. These goals are sup-
posedly attained by the lecture
system. We maintain that lectures
do not achieve these ends and
here are our reasons:
(II Spoken arguments present-
ed by the lecturer follow one an-
other so rapidly that no time for
thought about them is allowed,
esipeclally when the student is
trying to write them down. The
result is that students do not
think during lecture hours but
copy down the words of the pro-
fessor and wait till the end of
the day, (or week, or yearj to do
their thinking.
(2) The slavish copying of facts
whicli oould be available in print-
ed form seems unnecessarily te-
dious.
(3) By keeping his students
copying dui-ing the lecture hour
the lecturer loses the opportunity
to approach them on a personal
level.
Thus the principal fault of the
present lecture system is the
waste of both student^' and lec-
turers' time. It is an inefficient
method for producing poor sten-
ographers.
With the above in mind we
propose the following alterna-
tive:
(1) At the beginning of the
year ^printed notes covering in de-
taU the facts and ideas to be pre-
sented in the course should be
distributed. These notes should
be comprehensive enough so that
no lectured supplementary notes
would be necessary.
(2) At the same *Cime each pro-
fessor should give a few talks in-
dicating the purpose of the
course and Important parts of it.
(3) The bulk of the year would
be devoted to discussions and/or
question groups. The Instructors'
duties in such a group would be
to pose leading questions, and
answer student difficulties.
(4) At the first of the year
dates should be set for a sped''
number of small tests. These l«=
are designed to keep the stude
working, help hira estlniate B
progress and give the instrucJ
an evaluation of his knowltdge.
(5) At the end of the year
professor should give a serie> ^
talks summing up the resulii
the course and indicating no''
fits the educational pattern-
We are ready to admit that J
above proposal has some U*"
tlons and the methods of ^
ing it would require ^
thought. However we do
if it were given a fair tr»"^^
would overcome many of tn ^
of the present system. j

FLASH !
Word was officially released at
Varsity press time that the King
George VI passed away peace-
fully in his sleep early today.
"The canvassing
was mildly suc-
cessful" said Tim
Armstrong, chair-
m a n of t he
SHARE Committee, and added, "Es-
pecially gratifying were the personal
canvass results of some of the Pro-
fessional Faculties, in particular
those of SPS". It was probably the
most successful canvass they ever
had, he said.
Largest single contribution to the
canvass was made by the Engineer-
ing Faculty totalling $661,80, a per
capital donation of 40.9c. Trinity,
the second largest contributor, col-
lected $579.59. Knox College collect-
ed the most per capital, SI. 89. Four
colleges collected more than one
dollar a person altogether.
The low average contribution of
Vicloria College is due to the fact
that Vic students contributed
through many other events, said
Turner.
Receipts from the Skule-sponsored
Band Contest amounted to $149.75,

according to tha
report. This figure
would have been
greater if Vic's
S300.00 cheque
(with which they won the Contest)
had been added to it, but this would
have made Vic's total personal can-
vass $2,00 and brought tiieir average
down considerably, said Turner.
Joan Prcsanl. Chairman of the
Toronto Branch of the National
Federation of Canadian University
Students thanked Tim Armstrong
and the SHARE Committee in tho
name of the EAC. "We have as
much already as we had a year ago
now, and last year our receipts con-
sisted of money as well as goods,"
she said. "This year we still have
the sources of outside contributions,"
she added.
Miss Presant said she thought the
campaign was "definitely success-
ful".

Decide Divorce Laws Bad
But Marriage Laws Worse
Marriaee Is the great compromise
ftnd-sliould not end in divorce, de-
cided the Varsity Radio Round
Table last night. Although there Is
much wrong with Ontario divorce
laws, there Is even more wrong In
Ontario marriage laws, said the
panel.
"While there is a strong feeling
among Christians that marriages
are made in heaven", said Rev.
Mr. Nichols, "I'm quite willing
to discuss the possibility that some
marriages that are performed by
civil offices might fall outside Uie
Bible teachings regarding di-
vorce."
Strong objection to non-churcn
weddings was raised by Bud
Trivett. Law n. He felt that all
the philosophy and belief that went
witti such a wedding made civil
marriaees a poor second choice.
This thought was countered by Bar-
bara Screaton, VC in. who said,
"Two pei^le marry themselves,
and while the church may per-
form ft necessary office, as long as
Malnutritionand Disease
Are Problems for UN
The real problem of the United Nations in advancing
freedom and Responsibility is the serious malnutrition exist-
ing in many areas of the world, said Marvm G. Gelber in his
talk yesterday. Mr. G«lber, a graduate of Toronto, was speak-
ing to an assembly of the Student Christian Movement. His
talk v^as the fourth in a series on the Nature and Attain-
ment of World Peace. ,-, u
There are many insecurities in the world, he aald.
Ravages of disease, political and military insecurity, fear of
German and Japanese expansion by their neighbouring
nations are also causes of the general unsatisfactory condi-
tions in the world to-day.
the two are sincere I feel they
will not suffer from e civil cere-
mony."
Professor J. N. Emerson, of the
Anthropology Department, main-
tained that our reforms could come
in pre-marital instructions and ex-
posure to -the "hazards" of a mar-
ried life. He qualified the latter
to "within a reasonable point."
He felt that present laws used adul-
tery as an excuse rather than a
reason for divorce.
Mores and morals of the Amer-
ican scene were also held account-
able for the necessity of divorce.
Among these was the "Hollywood-
ized" ideal of the perfect marriage.
"This is not only unrealistic but
undesirable", said Professor Em-
erson. Marriages are part of a
mature pei5on, and no one hav-
ing maturity could imagine the
saccharine sweetness of film
marriages, he said.
This was the third program of
the current season of University
Round Table discussions. The pro-
gram was moderated by Harry
Rasky. CKEY staff man. Only one
of the participants, Ted NichoUs.
has had previous experience on
the radio. He was part of a
crowd at one time and in his sec-
oad appearance read a line.
Liberal Law School
Is University s Role
In 1949 the University of Toron-
to finally realized that the teaching
of law is peculiarly the function of
the University and. according to
Dean Wright of the Law School,
his appointment at that time was
on the condition that he would not
allow the University to be pushed
about by any profes.sion,
Dean Wright was the guest
speaker at last night's open meet-
ing of the University College Lit.
The Junior Common Room was
packed for the open meeting .The
last Lit meeting was canceUed for
lack of a quorum.
In his speech on legal education
in Upper Canada, he said that law
is concerned with the problems of
people, gioups, and nations living
together and is connected with poli-
tical science, philosophy, and the
other humanities. Dean Wright
said that law is a creative process
with shifting concepts and It is
this aspect which many lawyers
have not admitted. This problem is
not confined to Ontario according
to Dean Wright.
The difficuUy experienced in 1^-
al education, he said, is whether
the University is to play the role
in law which it plays in Uie other
iwofessions. Dean Wright said that

their small budget the work Is alow,
explained the speaker. VD. TB, Ty-
phus and Malaria are all being at-
tAcked under the health program,
•ntis comes under the direction of
the Pood and Agriculture Division
because they are trying to increase
the productivity of the agrlcultur-
tH regions lirst.
- European conntries have long
Iseen troubled by German Indus-
trial power and their military
might, he said; for many years this
Jear has troubled them and lor
this reason they refuse to aocept
Aid from Germany.
It is a notable fact that the tJS-
BR and the satelite countries are
not represented on the councile
that are constructively helping out
wortd conditions. Despite this fact
these councils are domg a vital job
and are doing it well, added Gel-
ber.
"Freedom Is a slow progress,"
TPfts his concluding remark. He at-
tacked the principles of tJne Colom-
bo Plan in that although -it gives
peoples progress as we see it, it
does not fill their needs for food
ftnd health. He mentioned that the
average Arab lives to be only tliir-
ty-five years of age.
After the talk there was a dis-
cussion group.

.balconj viewpoint
By DAVID PEDDBE
Moliere is one ot those great geniuses of the theatre who combiners
.nany elements in the simplicity of a truly great drama. TABTOTTi.
Is just such a play, one ot Moliere's best, and so it was a real pleasure
to see it performed at Hart House Theatre last night by the Tnnjly
College Dramatic Society. But for college students to present such a play
was daring, and It presented a challenge to them that one oould not
expect them to meet fully.
Considering this then It Is safe to say that TABTOTIPE is the best
Btudcnt production I have seen this year— generally speaking that Is. No
one gave a very bad perfoimance, but neither was anyone really out-
standing.
Tarluffe is a r«li«io«s hypocrite of the worst kind, who invades the
house ot Orgon, a wealthy gentleman, by means of his prostestations o!
piety. He completely tools this generous man and even turns him against
his own family. He Is given the deed to Orgon's house, ottered tne
hand of the daughter, Marlane, In marriage and confided in completely.
His ruse is discovered by Orgon tHrouglr TartufJe's lusting after Elmire,
Orgon's wife. However by this time Tartutte has had the opportunity
to gain control ot the house, and he is about to put Orgon's famUy
out in the street when he is arrested by the police. King I/nlis xrv
has seen through the impostcr. «
Nothing could be more straight-forward than that, but Moliere's
genius lies In his mixing together ot social satire, a stylish comedy of
manners and pure farce. To convey all these things would tax better
actors than we have In Toronto. But the Trinity actors axe to be con-
gjatulated tor allowing us poor starved theatre-goers the thrffl of seeing
Moliere performed.
rrirector Herbert whillaier deserves credit for the fine set which
Is in the proper spirit of the play. It was also a pleasiire to see the
wav he achieved groupings on stage— especially in the last act wheal
Orgon's family was gathered around his prostrate form. However I felt
there was a serious lack ol good pacing. In the first act the laughs were
lew and far between. Since judging from the rest ot the play he was
emphasizing the farcical element, it seems to me that it would have been
more consStent to play the besinning to the hilt. TWii emphasizing
of the farce was however a clever move tor it -was handled with much
more gusto by the actors, and the style required for the comedy of man-
ners would have been impossible.
The more fonnaliied ni»mier ol playing that is more common in
Prance Is unknown here, but it was evident from the production last
night who were the actors ot experience, tor they displayed at least the
beginnings ot a certain superficiality Miat is the most essential to Mohere.
James Armour aa the foolish Orgon was the standout of Uie evening.
His rages were tunny and yet one never forgot the real meaning of them.
His bearing was at all times authoritative and indeed he was not only
the butt ot Jokes but the master of them. As his wife Ehnlre, Ann
Murray was charming, beautiful, and very gracious. I felt that her
original reaction to Tartufte's advances was too overt and girlish, yet in
the scenes where she makes the first advances she was just right. Her
movement were always stylish and in keeping with her feelings and
thoughts.
Martin Hunter as Tarluffe had, I felt, the wrong approach to the
part He was too ingratiating and one could not believe in his religion
»t all He is supposed to be the ultimate in hypocrisy not lechery.
0( the others Margaret Martin, Joan Armstrong and Harold Threap-
leton gave good characterirations that were colourful and convincing.

LPP Leaders
Have Series
On Marxism
The Campus Labor progressive
Party is sponsoring fo\ir lectures this
month on the views, methods and
objectives of the LPP party. Pub-
licity director Ron Biederman said
that these lectures, at 1:00 pjn. on
Thursday, have been started because
of the confusion on the campus
about the party and to explain
what really constitutes the party
platform.
Stewart Smith will open the series
tomorrow with a lecture on the
Marxist view of the capitalist
system. Biederman said that Hal
Proctor will speak on Feb. 14th on
the Marxist view of the stale. Proc-
tor is actively engaged in education
work for the LPP party.
The third speaker will be Vic
Hopwood, speaking on historical
materialism. Hopwood has a Pli.D.
from Toronto in philosophy.
"What is Socialism" will be the
subject of the concluding lecture by
Harry Hunter.

He would like to see at the meeting

parlicularly those who will be activ»

It will take a great deal of work,
imagination, and responsibility t«
operate a station which will main-
tain the required standards. Tinker
emphasized. The initial steering
committee will need people to work
on technical, programming, and ad-
ministrative problems he said.
EAC to Urge
Ottawa Adopt
Colombo Plan
ISS Seminar
Four students from the University
of Toronto will be allowed to go to
the International Student Service-
sponsored seminar in India next
summer. Application forms will be
available in the Students' Adminis-
trative Council office in Hart House
in ten days. This year's number ts
twj down from last year's Toronto
quota of six.
Tlie EAC recommends that th*
SAC urge the Canadian government
to commit Canada to the Colombo
plan. This motion was passed at
the PAC meeting last night, in view
of the failure of the Canadian gov-
ernment to date to announce any
commitment for the next live years.
This recoDuncndalion came in re-
sponse to a letter from E. M, Nichol*
of the Student Chri-stian Mission,
requesting immediate action on tlie
part of all university organizations
to get our government to .support
what Nichols terms "one of tlie few
positive approaches which are being
made in today's international crisis",
Nichols' letter urge a three-
point public program in support of
the Colombo plan. He ^uegests that
concerned individuals write to var-
ious cabinet ministers asking that
Canada commit herself adequately
and publicly. Volunt,try groups
should study the plan and maka
public statements concerning its
use. to be forwarded to the govern-
ment.
Finally, the members of such
groups should undertake to send
an individually written letter to
each member of parliament. Ntchol
said. These steps should be itiken as
soon as possible to try to secure
government action before the end of
this fiscal year, in March.
The Colombo plan calls for »
capital development program in the
Commonwealth countries of South
East Asia totallbig about S5 billion
over a six-year period, two billioa
of which is to be rai.sed internally,
the rest externally, by ci^ntributlona
from other commonwealth countjiea.
This money is used to give Asian
students technical training in other
countries, and for teclmicnl develop-
ments within India.

way after that. Cowan with eight
and Dalgleish with seven were
high for the winners wlille Klein
rtetted six for the Redmen,
Vic Fifths doubled the score on
the UC VI 34-17 after running up

geons were Hutchinson with 16 and
Mackenzie with 13.
Over at Vic the St, Mike's ba«-

a. i.s Eric Kofmel, for four years
Varsity's best sprinter from 220
yards up to a quarter of a mile. In
•ny race against competition of
normal Canadian Inter-collegiate
calibre, you can always count on
Kofmel.
' In his fourth year of Civil Engin-
eering, the husky skuleman ha<
had a record of nearly perfect con-
sistency in Ws main event, the
440. ever since he enrolled at Var-
sity. He bafi always registered
times of from 51.8 to S3 seconds in
•U his races over that distance.
, liast Saturday, In the indoor
meet against McMaster and Buf-
felo. he ran the 300 yard leg of
tiie relay against McMaster's Don
VcFai'lane, who in last fall's In-
tarcolleslate meet won the 100 in
9.9 and the 220 in 22.5, both well
below any times recently posted
in Canadian college competition.
When Eric got the baton, he was
■be or seven yards behind Mc-
Farlanc . McFarlane lengthened
his lead a couple of paces in the
first lap, but in the second Kof-

In the 440 last fall, the same
Koenig took the load early in the
race. Several runners took off at
a breakneck pace and Kofmel was
boxed neatly on the first turn. In

In that game. Bud Natanson was

playing in that game, and wll bft

The Blues play their first Inter-
colegiate home game this Satur-
day with twice-t)eaten Queen's pro-
viding the opposition. Varsity's
record in Intercollegiate competi-
tion is two wins and one loss, with
one of the wins a 64-52 squeaker
over this same Queen's aggrega-
tion. The Blues will have a slight
advantage since they will be play-
ing on their home court, but the
game can still go either way. Wes-

wins and no losses, and a Varsity
loss could put the latter out of the

PHE scored early on their short-

Jackie Calhoun, on a clean break-

The Intermediates have already shown their colours,

Mills made a fortune in
(]ie United States as the inventor
a spark, plug that General Mpt-
prs used as one of its standard
mode]s. Using this fortune he be-
came known as a philanthropist
of large wealth and broad sym-
pathies.
The huge new library building
js designed on a functional plan
jjut in keeping with the architec-
ture of the rest of the campus
buildings. It features a browsing
and music room. Students can lis-
ten to the music here reclining on
comfortable lounge chairs or choose
from among the more recent and
popular books for leisure reading.
There is also an art library, a Rare
Boois Room and a social room for
housing the Baptist Historical Col-
lection.
Three principles that have guid-
ed the policy of the library in the
past were constantly in the minds
ol the planners of the present
building. These principles encom-
passed the needs not only of ade-
^v".^? "laffrial for undergraduate
work readily avaUabie in books as
well as the latest developments of
microfilm, films and records, but
inc uded a desire to promote gen-
eral readmg among the students
outside their courses and accord-
ing to their own inclinations, as
well as an appreciation of the fine
arts.
Considerable attention was also
pven to adequate lighting, acous-
tical treatment, air conditioning
and the design of furniture and
equipment, because, commented the
Librarian Miss Mai^et Meikleham
at the dedication of the building,
"there is nothing inherently schol-
arly in discomfort in a library."
To permit anticipated future
growth and development, no bearing
walls were used and partitions div-
iding rooms can be altered for
future needs.
A novelty that Toronto students
can well envy is the colour scheme

ART REVIEW
JMcMM? Canadian Shaw
More than a himdred paintings, drawings, etchings and prints
are crowded on all the available wall-space throughout Hart House. They
are representative works of EJuropean artists and hobbyists, who came
to Canada to live and work freely.
The exhibition illustrates almost all schools of painting and some
of the national influence on Continental art. In many respects the ex-
hibited works differ from the the art usually shown in Toronto. It is not
an exhibition of the work of European artists who were transplanted
into a new surrounding. These artists brought their heritage from
overseas and are slowly digesting a new land, where everything is less
tightly knit and less crowded.
Some use their past visual experience as a contemporary inspira-
tion. As long as their representation is not quite literal the results are
very pleasing. Where, on the other hand they tried to be literal, the
results are rather disastrous.
Some, like Helmut Gransow in his "Burnt Farm on Upper St.
Lawence", forgot the charming European post-card views and ex-
pressed what they are seeing now.
In abstracts, the painters lack the charming humor which can
be found in the American worlts.
The most outstanding aftist is Mile. J, Gilson, whose work is
represented by four paintings, "The Pipe Smokers" in the Art Gallery
and three paintings in the Map Room. Her work is very pleasing because
of its rich dark coloring. It is vei-y rhythmical in its staccato composition.
Several paintings, also very mature are by Mmei Martha Rakine,
who had her first Canadian show in Hart House Ait Gallery last year.
Her work is a little looser in execution than most Canadian paintings,
but it is very humane, organic and very deliberate.
A surprisingly low number of paintings reflect political or social
comment (past or present). This may be a result of the new and unex-
l^scted artistic freedom, an unwillingness to be melodramatic or a sort
«f escapism from the harsh realities of the past. Also a criticism of some
of Canada''s startling ugly streetscapes is missing. This may be a kindness
cr a result of the jerrying.
At any rate, this show will give an encouragement to many a
''new Canadian". To the "old Canadians" it will give some idea of what
^ happening in art behind the various cultural and political curtains.
"> Will show him also what the average painters of other lands do. To
some it may be a shock, to the others a surprise. To some, by compari-
it will clarify the pronounced flavor of Canadian art.
It Is an interesting show, worth seeing and thinking about.
The exhibition will stay in tlie Gallery, Reading Room, Map Room
fj^d the East Common Room until Febi-uary 17. It wUl be reviewed on
Wednesday, February 13 at 5 pjn. by its organizer Mr. Clare Bice, Curator

JV^BV Signs JVeedeU
The following is the second in a series of articles by
Michael Humphries, IV Psychology, in which the author
suggests that although science may point to social defects,
it cannot remedy them.
Cartoon by Hugh Niblock
Many of us have observed how children experi-
ment with the envii-onment in their efforts to
discover what could and could not be done to
satisfy their needs. To succeed in the social
environment the child soon learns that certain
signs (symbols) require him to behave in a
specific manner. If the consequences do not fol-
low in a consistent manner the sign will soon
cease to have any significance. The signs used by
the individual in a society gam whatever con-
sistency they may have by virtue of the fact that
the consequences are defined and maintained by
the society. However, as societies change, the con-
sequences to specific signs also change, giving rise
to uncertainty an<t confusion in the minds of
those for whom the signs were once dependable
indicators of rewai-ded behavior.
' The process of education is one in which
society tries to instill in their young the desired
sign-behavior patterns. In societies where there is
no formal education system these sign-behavior
patterns are contained exclusively in myths and
rituals, or they are obtained by the individual
through the tedious process of trial and error.
With the advent of writing the wisdom of the cul-
ture in the form of systems of reliable signs was
recorded and transmitted vicariously to the next
generation without the necessity of the inefficient
trial and error method.
In tijne certain institutions developed in society
as authorities resDonsible for the clarification and
exposition of these reliable sign-behavior patterns.
Religion at one time was such a system, and so
long as society supported the consequences the
signs were adequate in the sooial area to satisfy
the needs of the individual. In the years that
followed the oriein of the institution, the signs and
behavior-expectancies supplied by religion in re-
gard to tlie physical envii-onment were found by
experience to be inconsistent with the satisfaction
of certain needs. Eventually the same scepticism
which motivat2s the child to experiment with the
object his mother calls the "hot stove"' stimulated
some men to experiment with the [jhysical en-
vironment. Unlike the child, these early scientists
discovered thr.t the sign was unreliable due to the
inadequacy of the behavior evoked by them.
Fii'st in the physical area, and later in the
social area the scientist applied this child-like
curiosity to the world in his efforts to find some
system of signs which would be reliable measm'es
of what to expect The more reliable the signs

Presidents Report (3)
Library Fuel
If University College had not given an English test, the
declining circulation of library books at the University of
Toronto misht have aroused a furore of public indignation all
by itself. As it is the libraiy has had to play second fiddle
to remedial English, adding fuel to the fire of illiteracy
charges.
The average student is reading less than half as many
ibooks as in 1938-39 and the Chief Librarian, Dr. Wallace,
fiugge.sts that the growth of extra-curricular activities par-
tially is responsible for this. According to Dr. Shiith, how-
ever, the problem of extra-curricular activities "did not bulk
BO large in 1950-51" and yet the library circulation declined
15% over the previous year.
Of course, there are many diversions — movies, plays,
radio, even television — aside from those sponsored by the
university, which take up student time. Time which other-
wise might be spent reading. None of these activities, with
the exception of television, are particularly new. Nor are beer
talks and party-going recent innovations.
Students are apparently still reading, but not much, not
Imaginatively, nor avidly. Or so Acta Victoriana's reading
poll indicated. Yet. obviously students are not resorting to
the library for their books.
Some of this may be the library's — or the University « _
of Toronto's — own fault. For about thirty years now. the ,
library has been overcrowded; each year its inadequacy has Sci6nC6
been increa.^^ed. When it has been found necessary to place ^■^^
over 85.000 books in cold storage, we can hardly be surprised C L -I J
that many students have been displaced in the crush as well. OnOUIQ
The restrictions which hedge about the withdrawal of Q^Iri-l" Tln^rv*
books from the library do not encourage carefree trips to the naillT I lidTl
library. The long voyage to the desk and the delay in port,
present healthy challenges to the determined reader. Yet, it
appears that few of this species remain. Today few will
use the library unless forced by the desperation of essay
deadlines to do so.
Nor is the overnight book habit a salutary one. The
number of books which can be read by ten o'clock the fol-
lowing morning is fairly limited. It is usually difficult to do
justice even to one. As a result, a generation of scanners
and leafers, rather than readers, is being produced. Few
students think of reading University of Toronto library
books; rather they con.sult them.
Finally, the bureaucratic attitude, trademark of all large
organizations, tends more and more to filter into the library.
University librarians usually put rules before individuals, the
good of the community before the need of the individual.
Desperate students find themselves conlinnally confronted
by regulations with the strength of steel. Admittedly, vules
are very necessary, but they are made to be broken occa.sion-
ally. They should never be made into gods to whom unfor-
tunate students are occasionally sacrificed.
However, a new building and a liberal outlook will not
Immediately produce a race of bibliomaniacs. Even socialists
became the more efficiently was society able tn
satisfy the physical needs of its mem^bers. Jn,,^
as the Individual must experiment to a degre
with the sign-behavior patterns supplied by ^tg
parents, so the scientist with his refined method
test the adequacy of the sign processes present
In his culture.
Many of us have seen people react inadequatelv
to certain signs. The rea-qtion of some people to
garter snakes Is obviously inadequate — it would
only be adequate if the garter snake were in fact
a dangerous reptile. In the area of social sign
behavior the mention of a word, or some &n\M
gesture, is sufficient in some instances to produce
behavior which we classify as eccentric or psycho,
pathic. This abnormal behavior can be described
as behavior to signs which are in fact not what
they are assumed to be. If the belief that Mother
Jone's special remedy will cure tuberculosis ^
not born out 'by experience, this sign-behavior is
one which might threaten the -well-being of the
individual and is consequently considered an un.
reliable or pathic one.
Often social groups enforce the acceptance of
prescribed reactions to pathic signs beause to ad-
mit that the signs are unreliable is to endanger
the entire belief structiu-e of the group. To take
away the navigator's compass on the ground that
it is faulty without supplying him with a sub-
stitute makes it impossible for him to act at al!
It you can provide him with a more adequate
instrument no harm will be done, if you can con-
vince him to try it, and if you can train him in
its uses. All to often the pathic signs are main-
tained long after they have been shown to be
unreliable largely because there have been no
established substitutes.
In the past the artists, poets and philosophers,
the people interested in the organizational as-
pects of society, have been the persons respon-
sible for the creation of new signs. Science ha.5
developed as a specialized aspect of society whose
responsibility it is to test the reliability and ade-
quacy of the signs; science does not supply new
signs, it merely informs us of the relative useful-
ness of the ones we have. Science may suggest
that if certain goals are desirable then we must
cease using the sign-behavior patterns now eti.
forced and search for more adequate ones. The
inability to define such behavior patterns as
"democracy" and "communism" for example, in
terms that are adequate indices of the existing
state of affairs will very likely force us into an-
other war. If our present behavior patterns are
based on unreliable signs, why not adipit it, and
change the signs to ones by virtue of which the
responses "made will be adequate to our needs.
Bookophile's Beef
Editor, The Varsity:
On February 4 In the first
article of a proposed series on the
role of science in society, Michael
H'-UTiphrles stated that science is
a method for obtaining knowledge
from nature. This knowledge is to
be used to help man obtain cer-
tain specified results; but it is
not to be used to help him de-
cide what these specified results,
these values, are to be.
I suggest that it is foolish not
to use all information available
in making any decision; surely
f this holds in deciding what is of
value, what is "good". Scientific
knowledge is the largest body of
verifiable infoixnation that we
have. Why not use this knowledge
in deciding what is "good"?
Scientific knowledge is not. of
course, easily acquired. No per-
son, when confronted by a prob-
lem, can quickly and easily grasp
all the relevant scientific infor^
mation. Surely, then, it is the
which it seems almost impossible
to climh.
In the leading article on this
page ("leading" indicates it ap-
peared at the top of the page)
supposedly dealing with Ernst
Cassiner's newest book, one of
your contributors has achieved the
Absolute. He has succeeded in
mentioning the names of
TWENTY writers (including
Camner's) during the course of
one short article. More than this
— he has written a book review
of some six paragraphs, and no-
where has he mentioned the book.
Let us not take this lightly — I
am sure that this procedure ful-
fills some obscure need on the
author's part. My problem is
simply this — why should I be
forced to read it?
I turn to The Varsity's book
page (I don't think I am alone)
to read about a new book, not
to be confronted with the eigh-
teenth century from the worm's
eye view of the pedant. Is the
book page the proi>er place i|'
■which to demonstrate one's
"memory- work" in the history of
philosophy? Is it not possible for
the critic to tell us whether the
book appeals io him or whether
he thinks it up to Cassiner'
mark, or as a last resort, whet
; usua'.
the jacket is red or blue?
Is it
really necessary for him to relate
his own prejudices and opinio"'
about philosophy? Is there a")'
thought behind a review wlio^
only critical comment is that t'^
book "is a must for anyone
Philosophy or English"? In si

Dances Cancelled
For King's Death
But Shows Go On
Hart House Theatre will be open
next week, but there will be no
dances , to supplement the social
life of the camnus.
Out of respect for the late King,
Victoria College, the Newman Club,
and the University Naval Training
Division have all announced post-
ponemeait of their dances.
The postponement followed a re-
quest from the Caput that all dances
and evening events of a social
nature be cancelled until the day of
the King's funeral.
The Vic At-Home was to have
^^en held this Friday in Hart House.
Alex Gigeroff. Social Director of
the Victoria Col-
lege Union, .said
last night that the
dance would be
held at some
future date. He
added that the
tiandleader. Benny
Louis, had agreed
hot to hold the
VCU to its con-
tract.
The Newman
Club has also de-
cided to cancel its
Salt, to have been
held in the Royal

P r e s j dent, Ron
"'illiams, said the hotel had agreed to
release the club from its contract.
In harder straights ai'e the sail-

'fig to Lieutenant I. D. Townley of
the UNTD, no cadet dances will be

All masthead members of The

on Feb. 15. So far no information is
available as to whether or not the
dance wiU continue.
In Hart House, the 5 o'clock con-
cert went on as scheduled yesterday.
Sunday evening concerts are also
expected to continue as scheduled.
In the theatre world, tliere is no
certainity as to future action. The
Trinity production of "Tartuffe"
played last night, but may not con-
tinue. As matters stand now, thfe
All-Varsity Revue will go on next
week, except for the night of the
iunoral.
AYR officiate announced last
ni'-ht that when the funeral date is
set, tickets for
that night will be
re-distributed be-
tween the other
three week-nights,
provided the fun-
eral is in the
middle of the
week. They added,
however, that Fri-
day and Saturday
nights are sold
out.
Thus means that
students holding
tickets the night
of the funeral
date should be
able to exchange
their tickets for others on Monday,
Tuesday. Wednesday or Thursday
" "My first reaction is that, the
AVR should go one," commented
Registrar J. C. Evans. Secretary of
the Caput. "However, I feel I should
get further advice.' be added.
I expect that anythmg of a
theatrical nature for which tickets
have been sold will have to carry
on except for the day of the funeral,
the Registrar continued.
When the news of the Kings
death was first announced. „.em-
bers of the Trinity Dramatic Society
wanted to cancel theh production of
Moliere's -Tartuffe", now playing In
Hart House. However, on the advice
of Tiinity "'rovost Seeley and i-'C
Lieutenaiit-Governor-s office, they j
decided to continue last night. ,
They will be meeting this morn- i
ing to decide whether or not the
show will continue until Saturday. L
Out of respect for hfs late
Majesty, King George VI, the
Caput requests the cancellation
or postponement of dances and
other events of a purely social
nature until after the day of
the funeral.
J. C. Evans,
Registrar.
The King is dead, and with the rest of
the world the University mourns his pass-
ing. Around the doors of University Col-
lege and Si mcoe Hall, black crepe will
mark the death of a monarch, The social
whirl of the Universit,v has slowed to a
standstill, as have the intercollegiate
sports and Athletic Nights. The Union
Jack returns to the top of its flag-pole
today to honor our new Queen, but tomor-
row it will sink again until the Funeral
of George VI.
At a special meeting early last night the
Caput requested that out of respect for
his late Majesty, all dances and other
evening events of a social nature be can-
celled or postponed until the day after the
funeral.
Classes and labs will continue as usual,
until the day of the funeral, when they
will be withdrawn. The Library will be
closed the same day.
There will be a memorial service for the
late King in Convocation Hall, at 11 a.m.
the day of the funeral.
Front doors of University College, Sim-
coe Hall and the Museum will be draped in
black in his honor.
No decision will be made concerning the
date of the funeral, until Queen Elizabeth
returns to England. She is expected to
arrive late this afternoon.
The flag flying in front of Hart House
was at half-mast yesterday, and will re-
main so, after today, until the funeral.
Today it is at full mast in honor of Que^n
Elizabeth.
All intercollegiate sports have been can-
celled for a week. As a result, the Basket-
ball Blues didn't play last night, nor are
they expected to play next week. The
scheduled hockey game with Laval on Fri-
day has also been postponed, as has
Saturday's Athletic Night in Hart House.
The Trinity production of Moliere's
"Tartuffe" played in Hart House theatre
last night, but there were no curtain calls,
and at the end the audience sang "God
Save the Queen." The A^l-Varsity Revue
is expected to continue, except for tha
night of the funeral.
However, dances at Victoria College,
the Newman Club, and the University
Naval Training Division have all been
postponed. .
In the absence of the Chancellor and
President of the University, no messages
of condolence have been sent to the Royal
family. Registrar J. C. Evans said hist
night. Chancellor Vincent Massey is in
England: Dr. Smith is in New York on
his way home from India, and is expected
imminently.
The Caput, which defined the Univer-
sity's observation of the King's death, is
a body composed of the President of the
University, the Warden of Hart House,
and the heads of the faculties and feder-
ated colleges of the university.

this was the headline that greeted
undergraduates 16 years and 16 days
ago, at the passing of George V.
Undergraduate activities were cur-
tailed to a greater extent than at
the present time; Hart House

and the play that was scheduled to
open that week, Tolstoi's "Power of
Darkness" was indefinitely post-
poned.
The C.O.T.C. dance, the Univer-
sity of Toronto's one big military
social event of the year was cancel-
led. The U.C. Junior-Senior Dance
also scheduled for the same evening

Branded as absurd" by Tim Armstrong. SHARE chair-
man, was a motion which read, "This Society approves the
J^„5 and objectives of SHARE, but deplores the means by
«^ich the canipaign was conducted." A vote of 7 to 6 with

Clee,
It was stated that only about 1000 of the 6000 dollars
raised by Share would definitely go to Asian relief.
Qjee charged that although the ♦
Students were under the impress-
jon that all of the donations would
l,e used in Asian relief. $4,300 was
contracted to the International

Treasurer Gene Kurchalt. IV, told the executive that the price markup in the
engmeering stores would be substantially reduced, if Skulemen approve the fee increase.
'' * "W« plan to resume publica-

given
to the twenty-three student

printed in The Varsity, he added. ■
Aimstrong said that $1,100 of the '
SHARE funds would be given to !
ttie ISS to be used for the seminar,
exchange scholarships, and appeals .,
(0 outside sources (expenses in- i
volved in canvassing wealthy phil-
anthropists who donated some $32,-

"No attempt was made to keep
this part of the budget from the
students", said Armstrong, "i
believe this $1,100 to be the most
productive part of the budget be-
cause it multiplies itself many
times through the ISS outside
he added.
David Rose, IV UC and president
of the UC Lit. said yesterday, "In
view of the fact that the money
was apportioned between ISS ad-
ministrative expenses and Asian
relief on the assumption that $11,-
000 would be collected, that now,
with only $6,000 collected it might
be advisable to review this three-
division in an effort to en-
sure that a worthwhile amount
does go directly to Indian relief."
Charles Hanly. IV UC, indicated
■that a proposal similar to the
motion carried at the UC Lit had
come before the SAC recently. He'
stated that although some of the
SHARE money did go through the
ise, it still went to Asian relief
indirectly. Hanly added, "It should

With the additional funds, th9
Society would also publish an En-

Canadian campi have handbooks,
including the UniversiLv of British

"Proposed handbook expenditure is

continued.

vote stated that a $3.00 raise was
unnecessary. One. president of the
Eng. Business club, said that their

.Second-year president Doug Chris-
tie reported that Skule's freshmen
reception "was fine as far as it
went," however, as soon as it was
over, "condition slipped back into
^ their apathetic rut." He recom-
mended to the Society a general
; and partial return to the classical
initiation idea.
"Specifically, I suggest that on
the Monday and Tuesday after reg-
istration the freshmen be put to
work by the Eng. Soc,, and several
be required to report for fatigua
duty each day for at least the fol-
lowing month." he explained.
The executive also passed a mo-
tion requesting that Victoria Col-
lege return the three Skule band
uniforms stolen from Skule. charg-
ing that Vic "did not win the re-
cent Convocation Hall band con-
cert in an honest and fair manner".
Jim Drammond, rv. said that two
cheques totalling $325. "collected"
at the concert, have been with-
drawn by Vic to be donated
through the regular channel. Vic
had previously promised to return
the uniforms if Skule won the
-concert, he said; since Vic employed
"their typical underhanded means"
to win the concert," the uniforms
should be returned as per agree-
ment, he said.

SCIENCE NOTES
g Brown E^es
By JIM ANDERSON
f.OO a.m. — Science* editor greets new day with customary vigor. Remem-
bers that today article on sound recording for column is due. Massive
loss of vigor.
$J30 a.m. — Learns many happy things aibout the use of drugs In the
relief of pain in childbirth. Being a male did not feel immediate
need for information. Decided this would be a good topic for future
writing. But dull.
10.00 a-m. — Slightly more interested. Find that drug hyoschie used
in twilght sleep technique comes from Belladonna type plants.
Although slight arts background, realize that Bella Donna means
"beautiful woman" in Lower Slobovian tongue. Find that term first
used by members of the seductive sex who used drug to make pupils
of eye dilate. Males then remark on femaJe's big brown eyes.
Decide it is all a plot.
10 30 a.m. — Much impressed to note that the lowly jimson weed of
cowboy fame contains also alkaloids of this series. I^am that fair
amounts of belladonna drugs kill human beings deader than door
nails Babbits, however unimpressed by this mortality, are able to
guzzle the stuff in large quantities without benefit of undertakers.
See record of an entire human family rubbed out by consuming a
bunny who had indulged. Resolved on no more dining at the chiciten
castle.
JJ.30 a.m. — Find that another drug of the series, known as atropine
is used by ophthalmologists to dilate pupils for more accurate eye
examinatlon.s. Remembered once kissing an unknown girl after an
»ye refraction ficcompanied by very dim vision. One eye closed with-
out the help of drugs. Never did see if it was worth it or not.
12.00 noon — Ckjnsumed lunch. Peanut butter, not rabbit sandwiches.
Great state of well being. Looking forward to afternoon lato in
pharmacology.
1.00 p.m. — Arrived in lab. Noticed witli slight discomfort that we are
to inject belladonna drugs into each other. Tried to get away. Tripped
by colleague, Resigned to fate.
JS.00 pjn. — All hands issued flame tablets made of heKamine to be
tourned for the sterilization ol injection. Due to trembling fingers,
spilled water on tablets. End of fire. Beginning of prtrfanity. Tender
sensibilities shocked.
y.OO pjn. — Injection prepared. Fiendish expression on lab partner's
face. Pulse rate: 160. Large syringe prepared. Alcohol applied liberally.
Externally. Approximately two gallons of Hyoscine solution injected
into left arm. Should have reminded partner of abscence of flesh
on said member. Part of injection enters bone.
2.30 p.m. — Pulse rate down to 60. Life not worth living.
2.50 p.m. — Saliva which had been copious before, now practically
absent. Pulse still low. Moderate blurring of vision.
3^0 p.m. — Verj' diza^y. Wish I were married.
3.00 p.m. — Almost comatose. Have not swallowed for ten minutes.
Couldn't. Glad I am not married.
3.30 p.m. — Lab partner titters when I stood on hand. My hand. Am
not going lo the Meds At Home.
J.45 p.m. — Notified by friends (?) that pupils are widely dilated.
Beginning to appreciate the dangers of maternity.
4.00 p.m. ~ Reach Varsity office to tj-pe out column. Smiled at Rich
Clee. Tliought it was the editor. Typing with one hand not as difficult
as it sounds.
*,45 p.m. —' Finished article. Still have not swallowed. Decide to seek
drinking fountain or other source of fluids.
5.00 pjn. — Have resolved against pregnancy.

There were originally 15 en-
trants, but a series of elimination
contests was held to determine
the 5 finalists that wil speak. The
subjects range all the way from
Electronic Computor Memories', to
be presented by Mike Harrison, IV
Eng. Phys., to 'Explosives', by R.T.F.
Sherk, IV Chemical, and 'Solar
Energy', by Ray Nash of IV Me-
chanical. The list of topics is
sufficiently extensive for everyone
to find something of interest.
Student's Night is an annual
event, but this year it is being run
in conjunction with a campaign
to recruit Student Members of

Reverend Davies
Debate Speaker
Merthyr Tydfil Is the name of
a valley town which has been the
industrial centre of Wales since
the seventeenth century. It was in
this town that the Reverend Emlyn
Dacies had his first ministerial
position. Reverend Davies, of York-
minster Baptist Church, will be
the speaker at the next Hart House
Debate. Tuesday. Feb. 19. when
the motion will be "Resolved that-
the State should be responsible for
the morals of its citizens."
Rev. Davies has been interested
in debating for many years. In
his student days he was secretary
of the debating committee and
represented his university at an
International debate at Geneva
and in many inter-varsity debates
in Britain. While at University he
also played centre half on the
Wales "Varsity Blues*' soccer
team.
During the depression years Rev.
Davies made a study of Commun-
ism to see if the Communist Party
was following its doctrinaire of
assuming that unhappy social and
economic conditions would make
the people of Merthyr Tydfil spon-
sor to the party.
Bom in a small Welsh village al-
most on Offa's Dyke. Rev. Davies
received most of his education
there, and after graduating from
the University of Cardiff he re-
ceived a degree of B. Litt. from
Oxford for research in Ecclesiast-
ical history. His first ministerial
position was in Merthyr Tydfil and
from there he went to London
vv'here he was a Baptist minister
throughout the London blitz.
From London Rev. Davies re-
turned to Wales as the Nationgi
Secretary of the Student Christian
Movement and two years later was
appointed Professor of Ecclesiastic-
al History at his old College
Cardiff. Six years later, in 1950. 1
he visited the United States and 1
Canada as an exchange preacher I
and addressed the Baptist World [
Congress at Cleveland, Ohio.
Rev. Davies has a keen interest |
in the youth of today and com-
mented on his concern with Dr. [
Smith's Report. "Few people |
reahze the wide gulf separating |
the University students from the I
average citizen and this problem [
is not confined to the U of T," he
believes. He expressed surprise I
when he learned that women were I
not allowed in Hart House, espec- [
ially for the debates. "This debate !
will decide whether morals are I
like the fruit growing on the tree I
or like the fruit of a Christmas \
tree", commented Davies.

The Prop Mistress
The Prop Mistress trf any theatrical production is usually a much
msuiiderstood and maligned person. espe:ially bv people who do not
mow theatre from the inside. It must be admitted though that there
s still a good deal of outmoded puritan tvpe people who can think
lothing but evil of all stage people, and unfortunately the Prop Mistress
s tlie first to get the cold glassy stare. This circumstance is of course
Jue to the suggestive- quality of the title.
Those who think evil usually try to make the worst of something
■nat is pure and honest. The idea that this particular occupation is one
M unmoral support to the more excitable artists in the company is
JJipIetely erroneous. J^ut on the other hand some of these same excit-
artists often make tTie same mistake, and since the behaviour of a
^_jop Mistress is always above reproach, she usually suffers abuse from
^iinjii as well as from without.
^he job of the Prop Mitress, the real job, is one of great importance.
IS responsible for small accessories that do not come under the
ihe i
uthority of the stage- manager. Such things can run the gamut from
achroiiistic boxes to di-eft to cocktail shakers, from radios to television
and from sword-sticks to licorice-sticks. These props must be kept
rack of during the run of a show in order to fulfill theii- function of
""^J^S up the actors when they run out of other things to do.
^ friese are only 'a few cardinal rule to be followed: (1) Never forget
iiQ^^ P^*>Ps on stage, otherwise the actors will go to pieces. Without

such as putting embarrassing unmentionable props on stage to

4 Choirs
To Sing
Sun. Eve
The fourth annual Intervarsity
Choral Festival will be held in
Convocation Hall this coming Sun-
day at 9:00 p.m. The public is
cordially invited to attend; there
will be no admission charge, but
a silver collection will be taken
to help defray travelling expenses
■for the out-of-town choirs.
Toronto will be represented by
the Victoria College Glee Club,
under the direction of Charles Wil-
son, m Music. This choir has
represented the University at In-
tervarsity festivals in the past.
The three other choirs at the
festival come from McMaster (di-
rected by Dr. Roy McKeen Wiles),
University of Western Ontario (di-
rected by Alfred E. Rosei, and
Ontario Agricultural College (di-
rected by Ralph Kidd).
Each of the four choirs will sing
a group of selections. There will
be some quite well-known music
on the program: "The Children's
Prayer", sung by the Western
choir; and "The Glory Of The
Lord" from the Messiah, sung by
the OAC choir; and "Dear Harp
Of My Country", sung by the Vic-
toria Glee Club.
At the end of, the program, the
massed choirs (260 voices t will be
heard in several numbers. These
will include "The King Of Love"
arranged by Edward Baiistow.
"Jesu Joy Of Man's Desiring" by
Bach, and "King of Glory, King of
Peace" by Eric Thiman.'
This year's choral festival is
the first to be held in Toronto.
These festivals originated in 1949,
with the same four choirs which
are meeting this year met at Mc-
Master University. There Bas
been a festival every year since
that time, in 1950 at McMaster.
and the following year at Guelph.
These Intervarsity Choral Festi-
vals are non-competitive in nature.
The participants are not there to
out-sing each other, but to make
music and friendships.
The idea for such choral festi-
vals came out of a proposal at a
meeting of the National Federa-
tion of Canadian University Stu-
dents (NPCUS) some five or six
years ago. The idea of competi-
tive nation-wide festivals was felt
to lead to too many complications,
but the basic thought was recog-
nized to be a good one.
Dr. McKeen Wiles of McMaster
by his enthusiasm for the idea
succeeded in having the first such
festival held in Hamilton.
Mr. Mclntyre will. I hope, for-
give me for talking about his Sona-
tina, though I have not i^een the
music, and have heard it only
once. For me, the immediate ap-
peal of this ion one liearing) de-
lightful work lies in the amazing
success with which the composer
has managed to construct a sym-
metrical pattern in pure sound.
He has recovered the ancient art
of making such a pattern a thing
of beauty in itself. In short, his
music has (forgive the ill-omened
wordt form.
Now the essential characteristic
of all musical form is repetiton.
No one. no matter how musically
sensitive and alert, can possibly
recognize any form until the point
where he hears over again what
went before — a theme, a pluase.
a rhythm, or anything else the
composer can repeat.
Tlie deep satisfaction that comes
from recognizing a musical repe-
tition is. I think very similar to
the satisfaction derived from rhyme
and alliteration. It is also ana-
logous to a primitive love of reiter-
ation of words, as in fairy-tales.
In any case, it is in preparing
the listener lor his repelitioiL^ that
Mclntyre makes his composition
as successful as it is. In the first
place, he revive'; the lon-.n 1
ed custom of repeating the first
section of his first movement.
It may be true that the "repeat
of the exposition" become.s tedious
in Mozart or Haydn if It is per-
formed every time. I personally
got the thrill of a lifetime the first
time I heard th-.s repeal, performed
last yc;ir in Brahms' C minor .sym-
phony (by Goldschmidt in Van-
COU\';;ri.
Whatever one's opiuion.^ on the
subject in general, one can hardly
deny that in a new and perfectly
unfamiliar work, the composer did
well to state his niatennl twice.
The audience was the better pre-
pared to lecognize the recapitula-
tion when it came.
Paul Mclnlyrc made this focal
point of tlie form more ccn-picuous
yet by creating a feeluv; of appre-
hension just before it —"the sort of
thing that makes Bcetlinven's
sonata movements the thritliug
things they are, And the neat
coda with which the movement
was rounded out helped to Me up
the little package and leave it self-
contained.
Tlie other movement.s also show-
ed the composer's desire to luck in
the ends and leave a iie.itly-finLsh-
ed wliolc. I hope the Mclntyre
style Will develop a]cn-- ihe'^e lines.
(I admit that the Tr,o-Serenade,
which I heard twice, failed to give
the ^ame impression of lersenesa
to cue as did the Sonittuia 1
I would be happy to .see more of
this formal sort of nuisic come

a series of phone calls yesterday afternoon. This will mean cancellation of the hockey gatn

ball teams and Buffalo University were cancelled..
Most of the games will be rescheduled. Certainly the Intercollegiate contests will K

as the date of the King's funeral is announced. Exhibition contests, such as the basketball
game with Buffalo, and the swim meet with Rochester dated for the Athletic night Satur

SPORTS PROFILE
One of the most colourful players
the Varsity Blues, the pride of '
Victoria College, Jack Wheldrake
Ib really hitting his stride about
now as the intercollegiate league
heads into the home stretch. Play-
ing right wing on the first line
(hat has I>on Rope at centre and
Johnny Adams at left wing, blonde
Jack got four points on two goals
and two assists in last Friday's
eame against the University of
Montreal Carabins, These four
points equalled his tcrtal in the
previous games although he did
everything but score the Friday
before against McGill.
Wheldrake brings lots of hockey
experience to the Blues. Last
season he starred with the St.
Michael's College Majors in the
junior division of the OHA. Play-
ing on a line for the Irish with
Willie Marshall, who is now mak-
ing a niche for himself In the nun-
or-pi'o MariUmes loop, and Tom-
my Files. Jack had a record of
20 goals and 30 assists in the 48-
ganie season. His mentor tticre
was the well-known Peanuts
O'Plalierty. The two seasons be-
fore that were spent with the
Marlboros Jr. B squad. The Inst
year, it was the Marlboro B's. the
next year the Weston Dukes. BoHi
teams were group champions. Go-
ing back a long, long way Jack re-
members four years in the ranks
of the THL. all of which adds up
to a lot of hockey. Last year he
was on the Maple Leaf list, but
is iHicorlain of his present status
with them.
The East York native measures
5' 8" to the, top of his crew cut
aiui tips the scales at 150 right af-
ter a shower. He graduated from
East York Collegiate in 1950 and
enrolled at Varsity that fall. He
is now in second year at Victoria
in the pass arts course. After
that what? "I hope to get into
Osgoodc Hall but failhig that I'll
enter OCE." In the summers.
Jack keeps hlmselt and his bank
Br JIM PROUDFOOT \
account in condition worldng on I
a railway section gang. He also '
plays a solid first base for Brown
Motors in the Toronto Junior Soft-
ball League. This squad didn't go
very far last year but Jack,
though short for a first baseman
wfis hitting that "long ball."
Being on the same line as Don
Rope has profited him. Jack says.
The veteran Rope, with two years
of senior hockey and several of
junior under his belt, has plenty
of moxie and has been able to
give his team-mates tips on play
and tricks. Furthermore. Rope
coined the name "Pogo" for
Wheldrake and while it seems to
have no real connection, it has
caught on among the players so
"Pogo" It is.
With iiis speedy, dipsy-doodle
style, Jack goes with the shifty
Rope like ham goes witii eggs and
Johnny Adams is no misfit. To-
gether they make an electrifying
combination when they roll and
they have been rolling these days.
Wlieldrake's specialty is cutting
in on goal from the right wing af-
ter crossine the blue line. The
second of his goals last week was
a typical effort. He sped in from
the blue line, rounded Uie nest and
poked it in before the Carabin
goaUe realized it. Another pretty
play was one when he laid a
perfect pass to Ernie Frey who
was camped on the edge of the
crease. Charley McCarthy could
have scored on that set-up. Three
of his four points were scored, by
the way, on the Blues power play
where coach Bill Wade sends ot
Frey at left wlnp. string bean Jack
McKenzle at centre and Wheldrake
on right wing. Rope lines up on
the point with one of the defence-
men.
As for the rest of the semester.
Jack feels that if the Blues can
play up to last Friday's form they
can take the crown for the second
year lo a ;ow. The big worry.

dancer, this number provides a
titling vehicle ior his technical and
dramatic supremacy.
As Til. the prankish rogue. Ba-
bUee seemed to be a dancing mix-
ture of Harpo Marx and Charley
Chaplin, in every motion, ges-
ture and facial expression he dis-
played the mime's ai-t to the full.
It seemed difficult to conceive of
this carrot-topped, puckish rascal
beuig transformed into the tragic
figure of a man in Le Jeune
Homme et la IWort, but Babilee is
capable of it.
The final number, Interplay, is
completely contemporary Ameri-
can. The dancers move through
a series of classical ballet steps
and cliildren's games, which the
audience finds almost as much fun
in watching as the dancers must
find in dancing. Ballet Theatre
has a bright future if the ability

Kingston, (CUP)— The Alma Ma-

students' council, last week unani-
mously approved a referendum
asiting student approval of an in-
vestigation of the student interest
fee.
The $37.50 fee finances the non-
academic student activities at
Queen's; it includes health insur-
cuvcQ. student's union, athletics
and other charges.
The referendum, proposed by
Queen's Jounial editor, D. R. Gor-
don, said at the AMS meeting
that a surprising number of "sub-
stantial citizens of Queen's, not
malcontents" had approached him
and that he considered this inter-
est sufficient proof of majority
support.
Gordon Ainslcy, senior AMS rep.
replied that "No student or group
of students have ever come to the
Budget and Finance Committee
to complain of the present fimd
handling,"

Vic To Debate
On Character
Development
The motion before the Victoria
College Debating Parliament
which meets in the Alumni Hall at
Vic at 4.00 p.m. today is. "Resolv-
ed that this University develops in-
tellect but not character."
Jim Addy, m Vic, first speaker
for the government, stated that tiie
university, as an institution, is
not concerned with the character
of its students, but is interested
only in the mass production of pre-
fabricated intellects, it makes no
attempt to infuse into the stu-
dent ay individuality, any mor-
ality, or any distinctive character.
Charles Marsh, who is opposing
the resolution, feels that if the
resolution to come^efore the house
were ti-ue, it would beSjuite de-
pressing, in fact, quite horrifying,
for it would testify that the pur-
pose and way of university life—
the product of seven centuries of
refinement, would be in vain and
that the long continuity of our
cherished traditions would shortly
be shattered.
The two other debaters will be
Ron Price I Vic and Bill Harding,
n Vic, who is the second speaker
for the Affarmative. Price, who is
opposing the resolution said, "in
view of the tremendous achieve-
ments shown by graduates of this
university in all fields of endeavor,
we feel that this motion is absurd.
We cannot accept this position and
will fight it to the end."
Quest For Reality

The fourth In a series of Sun-
day evening services will be held
in Wycliffe College Chapel on Feb
10. The speaker is to be Mr. C.
Stacey Woods, general secretary
of Inter-Varsity Christian Fellow-
ship.
Bom in AustraUa, Mr. Woods
graduated from the University of
Sydney and took his theology at
the Dallas Seminary on this con-
tinent. In the autumn of 1933 Mr
Woods became general secretary
of IVCP in Canada and when an
lYf^^for the US was formed in
1939 he was asked to assume the
same post there
In this capacity Mr. Woods has
travelled in Europe, spending
many months with students from
England. France. Scandinavia,
and Italy. He has become an au-
thority on student conditions and
aspirations Ui modern Europe.
This coming summer he will head
a camp for some 200 German stu-
dents in Switzerland. In the midst
of these duties Mr. Wood.'^ finds
lime to edit His the student publi-
cation of IVCP on this continent.
Mr. Woods' address on Feb. 10
will concern the himian quest for
;»isfaction and its realization.
Basing his talk on the meeting of
Jesus with the 'Samaritan wom-
an at Jacob's well. Mr. Woods will
use this woman's experiences as
analogous to those of every human
being who seeks and finds.

TelevSsSon
Not quile forgotten in the flurry of excitement over man's
latest feclinologrical gadget — television — arc its social
implications. Ralph Wintrob, CUP Editor, gives his analysis
and suggests that it is another development on the road to
standardization of ideas.
The Loss
This is the inbetweeii period. The shock of the king's
death has been too much for us to absorb in a few short
hours. Even his faihng health did not really prepare us, for
there is a wide gap between expectation and realization. He
was sick and we were sorry ; he is dead and we are stunned.
"We won't sing 'God Save The King' any more," someone
observed — and we were stopped short. Our generation has
known no other words.
In a scant fifteen years on the throne, King George VI
made the monarchy more popular and revered than it has
been since the golden days of Queen Victoria. For the throne
passed into the shadows under Edward VII. it lived in semi-
retirement with George V and received an ill-timed blow
from the abdication of Edward VIII.
The widespread disillusion of 1937 was transformed into
warm sympathy towards the gentle young man who suc-
ceeded his popular and polished brother. The new king had
not been "trained" for his position.
Perhaps it was the stutter which lent the necessary
touch of humanity to the monarchy, made him more "real''
to us. Not that King George VI was more of "a common man"
Dor even "one of the family", though he came more closely
into the family circle. In his person, the human symbol of
the crown regained a new warmth and new meaning.
The British King has long been the ruler of many
countries — at least, all the parliaments and legal documents,
proclaimed so. Yet it was the late King who transformed
these legal facts into living actuality. The old "Royal Pro-
gresses" were extended to include many nations of the Com-
monwealth. And the sceptics who laughted at the anachron-
ism of a monarchy in scattered democracies were proved
■wrong. The fleeting glimpses of the royal family strength-
ened the old, undefined loyalties immeasurably in the public
mind.
, But the gentle king with the hint of a stutter is dead.
He leaves behind him a new meaning of the importance of
the British kingship. We feel a deep sense of loss.
A race of men vith two huge eyes In their
faces supporting a pinheaded brain; Fred Allen's
caustic comment about television makes a lot of
sense. What is most frightening about television
is that it is another medium to reduce man's will
and capacity to think.
There is no shiUy-shaHying about this latest
teclinologicai nightmare. Either it arouses a purple
passion of wrath or else apologetics. But more
often one just looks and listens, completely ab-
sorbed by the new loy.
Television seems to be oi\e more step in a gen-
eral progress towards an insidious, self-willed,
social evU — production of a race of men who
thiiik the same way about the same things.
At one time a small group of people gathered
in the living room for a party or just a little get-
together with small talk passing back and forth.
Now these same people sit before a little screen
watching figures dance in front of them. Not a
■word passes between them. What little coanmuni-
cation there once ' was, exists no longer. It may-
be characters who pass themselves off as come-
dians, making funny faces, a couple of ^)rawny,
grunting wresters. a play where the actors have
about as much stage presence as gangling school-
boys or a discussion that claims to be a public
service but is about as profound as mud.
And this bile pours out in a never-ending stream,
■Where one could have ont-s mind dulled by a soap
opera or a recipe and gossip hour program while
fiddling about with other work, one now has to
concentrate on it in one spot or lose all the flavor.
And instead of conversation at a bar after a fight
or a play, one just keeps on watching.
In the New Yorker recently was a cartoon de-
picting a store selling television sets. Pasted on the
door was a sign that read something to this effect:
Liberal trade in on your old library.
It is easy to lasiirh ourselves into mediocrity. We
have become a civilization that ,wants its ideas
shovelled up on a piatter of pictures. Television has
come along to help aid and abet this shoveUing.
Perhaps television may not he any worse than
the other forms of mass communication and en-
tertaimnent. But that is just the point. As tele-
vision follows the primrose path to the triviality
of radio and movies, a whole new process towards
mass standardization of ideas ensues.
To sell a product a businessman wants to make
the inter-commercials period as -iasy to take as
possible. That's what people want, anyway, he says.
It's an ouLworn formula, but all the people -who
envision great things for television are barking up
the wrong tree. Television is no experiment. The
same people who are mixed up with radio and
the movie; are the people using their well-learned
lessons of mass-standardization m television. They
will certainly not change theii- tune. True, they
may not have reached the handful of 'formulae
that other better-established media have develop-
ed. Bub they are on the way.
One of the more insidious events on televi ■
the Sunday morning church broadcast, v/h"
late sleeper could feel halfway righteous by v'."
ing to a set vice on the radio, they can uq
in completely and watch a church service
their most comfortable easy chair, i ^
whether it makes them feel twice as righteous
A survey, recently conducted by two profiv;
of all television programs offered in the New
are no surprise. They show just how war
vision has already become. Three percent u/^'
programs were termed educational, 2 percent
lie issues, 3 percent discussion and 1 percent'^''
ligious. Commented the professors: "A clear
jority of the time was devoted to entertainm"!
programs with relatively low or perhaps
survival value for the individual".
A great hue and cry is being raised in the
States to make educational programs on televis'l
mandatory. These are, of course, -particularly
directed towards children, the imknow

Gloriana
"In palace, in a garden** lived the young Victoria hefore
she ascended the English throne. How different, how remote J
does lhat .seem to us now! And how unlike the new Queen
Elizabeth!
Like her famous namesalte. she lives in troubled times,
with prospective wars and revolts seething about her, with
the power of Britain once again threatened, with the Cas-
fiandras once more crying doom.
And yet she is a very young woman, shy and reserved
like her father, impressing all of us who saw her last fall
with these very qualities. We sympathized with her then,
when she was so very tired and overburdened with public
appearances. How much more do our hearts go out to her
now in her present grief!
But it is with full confidence that we look forward to a
new Gloriana, a queen who will not just be a comfort to her
country in its old age, but a monarch who will lead, as the
first Elizabeth did, her many nations, to new triumphs and a
roceneration of the old gloriea
Editor, The Varsity:
I wish to compliment Brown
and Elliot for tlieir concrete pro-
posals for overhauling the lectui'e
system. However, I do not think
that their proposals would have
mucli effect. Such discussion-
question groups are to be found
in many of the courses. They are
the dullest classes of all 'because
once the professor stops talking
who else is there? Certainly not
the students.
Elliot and Brown failed to real-
ize that by merely changing the
relationship of professor and stu-
dent in the classrooom does not
guarantee anytliing except awk-
ward silences. The essential prob-
lem of a Canadian university is
the student. He is an amiable
sort who tackles miiversity just
like he did the senior matric
with no enthusiasm for what he
is learning but with a whole-
hearted belief in the degi-ee that
rewards his spade-work.
To e.xpect him to actually think
about his course, and discuss his
course, is alj-surd. Thinking and
discu.ssing are extra-curricular
activities: the university has no
rights here.
The proof of this can be found
in the v[iriu\is liLerory contests
around Iho University. The stu-
dents of English never win these
contesU for obvious reasons that
writing Eii'ili?!! Is on the course.

many people regard students as
marionettes, created by their en-
vironment, and requii'ing the en-
jinonment to change If they are
to change. But surely the stu-
dents have their own will, with-
out requiring first that the frame-
work be changed radically.
I suggest that a nucleus of peo-
ple within, say an English Olass,
take it on themselves to create
discussion in the classroom, and
inspire a bit of intellectual fire.
I suggest that the students of
English fh-st year meet the stu-
dents of Enghsh fourth year. I
sug'gest that within a class. or be-
tween classes, competition of one
kind or anotlier should be foster-
ed. I suggest that this competi-
tion he extended until the stu-
dents of Vic are pitted against
students of Ti-inity. This need for
competitive intellectual fire is
especially needed in tiie Arts col-

Cast Carries On its Practice
'Phe All-Varsity Revue wlU con-
tinue with rehearsals as usual, ac-
corditig to Jim Guthro, producer
,( the show.
lo spite of its cancellation by the
P^put until after the day of the
funeral, the cast will keep up prac-
\ tices in the hope of producing it
ffeek after next at some theatre off
the campus.
A regular rehearsal of the cast
vas held last night, and the feeling
those present seemed to be ex-
pressed by Bud Pi iestman, AVE. As-
sistant Director when he said, "I
feel that this Is a big disappoint-
oient to the cast but I appreciate
the validity of the judgment. It will
be an anticlimax to the cast who
have worked themselves up to go
through with seven performances."
Guthro stated that they were
working on procui-ing an outside
outlet but that none had yet been
found. He said the show would only
be produced Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday of the next week but
that we would definitely not be any
longer. If this outside theatre is
found the Saturday matinee and
evening show would go on, prob-
ably at Hart House.
Cynthia Barrect, ballet instruc-
tor for the All-Varsity Revue,
thought the show should not have
been cancelled due to the large
number of people invol-ved. "Natur-
ally, I want to emphasize the sin-
cerity of my sympathy over the
death of the king," she said. "But
the show must carry on; if the
audience does not wish to come
they can stay away."
StDdent opinion of the cancella-
tion of the show varied. Some felt
that the show should be stopped
permanently for this year because
any show now would just be an
anticlimax. One student remarked,
I my opinion the show should
,not have been cancelled except for
the funeral on Friday. Too much
time, money and work have been
put into it to be done away with
now."

SAC Meet
All members of the Studenls
Administrative Council arc re-
quested to attend a special
Council meeting at 12 noon in
Room 62 in the basement of
University College today.
The All Varsity Revue has been cancelled.
A brief letter yesterday from Registrar Evans to E. A'.
Macdonald, SAC Secretary-Treasurer, read as follows, "I am
now directed to instruct the Students' Administrative Coun-
cil that no performance of the Revue shall be given at least
until after the date of the funeral."
ti, I Theatre Manager Jim Hoziak announced
that there will be no more dates available at the theatre
until April 6. There are a few one day openings after March
A ■.'^''.^ "0 possibility of a large scale production
until April, he said.
When Jim Guthro, director of the AVR read the letter
he said In effect this means the end of the All Varsity
Revue. '
The decision lo cancel the AVR was made after a tele-
phone conference of the Caput yesterday morning. Warden
Ignatieff commented that the decision was ananimous. It
had been omitted by accident from specific treatment in the
previous Caput meeting Wednesday night, he said.
J f'i'rTf°"'" yesterday afternoon Students' Council
and AVR officials held a hurried conference. They immedi-
ately called a noon hour meeting of the SAC to be held
to-day. At this meeting they will di.scuss possible alterna-
tives such as holding the two scheduled performances on
Saturday or holding the AVR awav from the university.
Director Jim Guthro said.
In a statement that expressed the feelings of the AVR
officials, director Jim Guthro .said. "I see no necessity for
cancelling the .show except on the day of the funeral :'first
because of the large financial loss to the students which may
total $3400; second, because of the tremendous amount of
work that has gone into this production."
The question of cost will probably be discussed by the
Caput. There is some possibility that the University will
bear the brunt of the cost, admitted J. C. Evans, Caput
Secretary, in a telephone conversation. If Hart Hou.se theaire
demands full payment for the cancelled nights the Students'
Council may suffer a heavy loss.
At the time of the Caput's decision the day of the
funeral had not been officially announced. However when
the Friday date was announced. Registrar Evans said there
is no possibility that the Caput will reconsider. Any attempt
to hold the show off the campus in the next week would
be very bad taste and would be discouraged by the Caput,
added Warden Ignatieff.

the morning in, an igloo, everyone
tells their dreams. They're com-
pletely open in confessing their
sins. I lelt still too much a pro-
duct ol civilization."
Ancient tradition prescribes
their ideas, and so Dr. Carpenter
found them inteUectually limited,
but fascinating to him as an out-
sider. The Eskimos called him
"The One Who Asks the Foolish
Questions", but liked him and
told him a great deal.
Religion is a wonderful thing to
them, tied in with the rebirth of
the earth. Man and the deity es-
tablished a covenant and man
ust show respect in return for
food, Man and tiie deity can pun-
ish each other if either does not
fulfill his side of the bargain.
They think the deities must mate
and therefore ape them, exchang-
ing wives. Each man must always
have a wife, for things like mak-
ing waterproof boots, without
which the Eskimo would freeze to
death."
Women apparently have a good
deal there. "They are slaves
when they are young, but become
bosses. There are no more hen-
pecked men in the world, except
maybe the Americans."
Dr. Carpenter, who was born in
the United States, has carried on
research in the south as well as
the Arctic. He has done field
work in the South Seas and in La-
tin America. While in the Ma-
rines, he acted as judge advo-
cate at the War Crimes Trials in
the Pacific, and has a collection
of records from trials of murder

YOUNG PEOPLE'S HOUR
Goal of Reporter
To Be Objective
MacTaggart Says
A sincere attempt at objectivity
and a sensible balance in selec-
tion of news are essential to good
newswriting said Ken MacTagpart,
National Newspaper Award winner
for 1950, at yesterday's Varsity
news lecture.
Some eighty students, including
Varsity staffers^ heard MacTag-
gart's noon-hour discussion of re-
porting. This is the first of a ser-
ies of lectures on journalism in
which students will hear promin-
ent Canadian writers.
"Winchells are dangerous,"
said MacTaggart, speaking of col-
umnists like Washmgion reporter
Walter Wincheil. They have a
tendency to rely on unnamed
sources, and made-up opinions
from recorded information, he
added.
Colamnists are often given too
much freedom, McTaggart indicate
ed. When the editors disclaim
responsibility for these opinions.
tJie position of the paper as a ser-
vant of the public and as a free
institution is weakened, he stat-
ed.
The freedom of the press sug-
gests the responsibility of the
newspaper to the people it repre-
sents, MacTaggart pointed out. The
popular opinion that news is taint-
ed by the influence of publishers
and advertisers may be true in
some cases, he said, but MacTag-
gart, a senior reporter for the
Toronto Globe and Mail, stated
that he had never experienced any
such influence in his work.
Because of the vast amount of
available news, careful selection
is essential, the speaker indicat-
ed. The selection must be based
on the significance which the pub-
lic places on the news, not on
what the editors think important,
he added.
Since the tastes of the readers
vary, an attempt must be
made i
Mac
tween the numerous likes
Taggart said.
*'Which is of more interest^.
or monetary policy?" he
There are readers who like
he said, but a newspaper
never print all sex, any more
it could print all monetary n'^'^^
Discussing objectivity, MacTae"
gart warned against the irresp^!"
sible use of words which migJ
tend to slant the story towards on]
opinion.
"Olyectivity Is an inherent qujj, |
ity in reporters." said MacTag.
gart. He used the illustration of
several young men who have
gun newswriting only to fail be.
cause they were unable to elimj.
nate their own impressions on j
story.
MacTaggart doubted whether I
anyone may be wholly objective
but, he added, much may be done 1
by carefully selecting straighlior.
ward phrases which will present
the facts without the danger oi |
suggesting a personal view.
"The Ivory Tower Page is <ie.
signed to provide an outlet for
opinions", said MacTaggart re-
ferring to the editorial columns. |
A newspaper is not a social ser-
vice and should not act as crusad-
er, he said. The editors may re-
port worthy causes to the proper
corrective agencies and report
th^ir efforts, MacTaggart added. |
Overemphasis of one theme !
following the policy of catering [o |
the public's interest, he said.
The next VarsHy sponsored lec-
ture on journalism for the sty- |
dents will be given by Ted Reeve,

A Mrs. Smith was standing on a railwity platform before a wicke! I
buying a railway ticket to Chicago. In the meantime a train headed I

parcel, ran to catch the train, and as he had difficulty getting on, t«*' |

to help him get aboard. I
In so doing, the porter on the platform knocked the parcel out |
of Mr. Jones' arms. The parcel in fact contained explosive ftreworfe
and on striking the ground, exploded. As a result of the explosion
the reverberation a scale aibout a hundred feet away fell, landed on
Mrs. Smith, and seriously injured her.

Trinity Tartuffe Continues
Finishes Hart House Run
At an emergency meeting yester-
day morning, the Executive ot the
Trinity College Dramatic Society
decided definitely to present all
the remaining performances of
"Tartuffe" which has been running
all this week at Hart House
Theatre. The Society is acting on
the advice of Provost Seeley, who
had been in contact with officials
of the Caput, and the office of the
Lieutenant Governor. Although
many members of the cast felt that
some performances should be can-
celled due to the national mourning,
they were advised by the officials
to carry on.
Last night's performance was
heightened by the presence of the

costumes from the play about Louis

campus announcing that the re-

last night. "God Save The Queen"

Two-thirds of the students inter-

Robert J. CoUlns, m St. Mike s,

Hall, St. Michael's College, and
simultaneously Wally Emon

Osgoode team at Osgoode Hall.
Both groups will argue the same
resolution: "That in Qiglish-speak-

vidual liberty is being lost at
home". Collins and Callahan are
taking the negative here; Enion
and Re^an argue the affirmative
at Osgoode.
Points awarded at both debates
will be combiiied. The winning
school qualifies for the finals of the
Eastern Division of the lUDL.

the university should show their
respect for him. there was aeed "to
go this lar". Several of them sug-
gested that the actions are slightly
hypocritical. A total of 50 student*
were interviewed.
Although this was a good sign of
respect, perhaps because the funeral
is so far off we may have gone a
bit farther than necessary, said
Marilyn Wallace, n uc.
PeUsr South, HI UC, felt that
all the cancellations seemed slight-
ly artificial. He contmued that ho
felt that on the day of the funeral
all classes should be cancelled but
such drastic events were not re-
quired. Smith was wearing a black
tie as his sign of respect.
Martin Hunter. I Trinity, felt
that procedure of the Caput was
quite correct and he was in com-
plete agreement. Hunter, who is
playing the leading role in Tartuffe,

that the cast were willing to post-
pone the play but they had been
advised by the officials at Trinity
to carry on.
The only person violently against
the procedure refused to allow his
name to be used. "On the day of
the funeral, all right, but cancelling
all sports events for a week or long-
er is ridiculous. I regard social
events in the same light. The whole
business is rather artificial." said

U of T Develops Character
Debate Parliament Decides
■ The University of Toronto de-
velops character as well as intellect,
the Victoria College Debating Par-
liament decided yesterday. It de-
leated the motion "that this Uni-
versity develops intellect but not
character" by a vote of nine to
three.
"The student Is primarily active
In his own character development,"
said Jim A^idy, HI Vic, speaking
lor the motion. The University is a
state in wliich a professor pours
out his own knowledge, to which,
however, the individual student
must react himseU. Addy said. "It
Is the University's mission to pro-
vide the tools to develop the intel-
lect, but the student develops his
cwn character in using these tools."
"The various aspects of University
life taken together form a way of
life so different from that which
the student formerly knew that he
is forced to change,'' said Charles
Mark. I Vic. first ^jeaker for the
opposition. The university aids In
defining his purpose, and gives him
a sense of the past and the future.
Being a relatively small body it has
a stranglehold on each of its mem-
bers, he added.
Bill Harding, II Vic, said that
people come to university with
many different purposes, and that
the conflict of these various pur-
poses is confusing. Many students
are lost and helpless because they
cannot cope with the pace and fur-
thermore, the short university year
does not offer sufficient time for
all the extra-curricular activities,
as well as studying, he said.
"As intellect is a part of charac-
ter, hi developing the intellect the
university develops the character,"
said Ron Price, I Vic. "Moreover,
the university develops character
through its many aspects, which
permit every student to find some-
thing in which he can specialize,
and develop his own characteris-
tics."

Occasion
With EroicJ
account of the national
mourning', the Toronto Symphony
Orchestra's subscription program
was changed last Wednesday, The
works performed were Su: Ernest
MacMillan's transcription o£ Bach's
chorale prelude "In Thee, O Lord,
Have I Put My Trust", Beethoven's
symphony no. 3 (Eroica) and his
piano concerto no. 5 (Emperor).
Many listeners must have felt
disappointed that the modern
work scheduled, Hindemith's "Mat-
thias the Painter", ■was no per-
formed. Hoj^ever, the splendid per-
formance of the Eroica, without ap-
plause at the end, was an experi-
ence no one wil regret.
The symphony was performed,
according to Su- Ernest's custom
in the works of Beethoven, with
additional wind instruments. An
extra piece for each of the wood-
winds, and an extra horn were add-
ed, and three trombones to rein-
force the horns in some passa^ies.
The object of this strengthening:
is to restore Beethoven's propor-
tion of winds t-o strings in the or-
ciiestra without reducing its size.
The result in practice is a more
tangy, shrill sound — and in the
passages wit^ trombones, it must
be admitted,
brassiness.
The Eroica is a fitting -^q^^

and the performance was an

Clifford Curzon was soloist \
the concerto. He showed himstJ
better able to dominate the ,
chestra than any piano soloist vJ
tJiis season, but more by the lo'rJ
of his wonderfully alive soft j
sages than in the thundering octaJ
runs.
In bringing the more lyrical p
of the work to the fore, the arii3
tended to give them more rubail
than some pianists would. His IqI
terpretation was more romanijr
than heroic; it is to the orchestral
credit that they stayed with i
soloist perfectly when he stret<hei
the tempo.
This concert proved conclu£ive|

grgat heights on occasion. It jml
seems to be a matter of caring. T

Spoils Finch, Bodle
And Mozart
Any discussion of the recital of
piano duets given by Prof. Pinch
arid Douglas Bodle in Hart House
last Wednesday afternoon would
almost have to be made in the light
of the instrument on which the re-
cital was played.
The music room piano has a dull
wooden tone in the lower registers
and a brittle tone in the higher
registers. Add to this that the
touch is both heavy and uneven and
we see how difficult it is to attain
the light, delicate touch so neces-
sary for such composers as Mozart.
Therefore, it is almost impo-ssible
for any but the best of artists to
play Mozart on this piano with
anything like good results. Since
the recital was an all-Mozart pro-
gram and the performers, I believe,
make no pretense to the rank of
great artists, the effect of the re-
cital was disappointing.
The performance seemed to lack
airiness: the more spacious num-
bers, especially the Sfrnata in \
seemed cramped. At times, the maj
powerful passages degenerated ii
to wooden banging. These faulL.<,|
suppose, are largely due to the ?
ano itself. But, one noticed aiwj
general lack of contrast,
much in dynamics as in tone a
mood, although this improved i
the later numbers, and a geneni
lack of breadth in the phraiiij
which made it difficult to see e
work from an overall viewpoint.
In spite of these remarh;s, thoupj
the recital was most enjoyable b
cause of the unusual program a
the obvious enthusiasm of the f
formers; it pointed out a little-**
pioited field which deserves to 1
pursued. The recital would
Ijeen even more enjoyable i£
House ha4 seen fit to replace J
pikno in the music room with

I MOOSE' intercollegiate athletics, in-
jgifaculty sports and recreational
gtivities are' all controlled by an
' Ijletlc Directorate. This Director-
ate is composed of Warren Stevens,
pirector of Athletics and Physical
Education, two graduate members,
two faculty members and five elect-
gd undergraduate members.
one of the most important func-
fjons of the Directorate Is the con-
trol of intramural activities. Of this
department it has been said. "It
js unrivalled on the continent". A
Jot ol credit for the develpment of
this section is due to John "Mac"
jlcCulcheon, Supervisor of Intra-
dural Activities.
"Mac" is a rather short man. us-
ually very nattily dressed in blue
blazer find greys, and gives the im-
pression of boundles energy. From
his work offices in the north-west
corner of the Athletic Wing over
20 competitive sports are arranged
for, referees appointed and results
generally cordinated.
Condensed into a small area are
found some of the most varied types
of sports. Fencing and weight-lifting
are found in a special room, boxing
and wrestling are each situated in
their own rooms. Basketball gym-
nastics, harrier, swimming, squash
are just a few of the activities that
are also carried on.
Bnt lack of space and facilities is
stUl a worry; last year approxi-
mately 3,353 students participated
in intramural activities. Warren
Stevens in the anuual report stated,
I feel that it is necessary to re-
port that indoor facilities available
. . . are most inadequate, providing
an opportunity for only one-quarter
of the present enrollment to partici-
pate in some form of wholesome
recreation."

By PRANK MOKITSUGU
Richard Wright is an angry young man. His anger has burst out in
Ws books, Native Son. Black Boy, and Uncle Tom's cSild^ln H s testl
„„„y of his frustrated affair with the Communist pL'tHn The God
That Failed is a sensitive, pathetic protest. Turning to the Communist
faith because of his dissatisfaction with that America whlcT makes
Black lesser to White Wright found that he did hoi fit in with £
machine. He IS a lost figure, an idealistic Communist whom professional
Communists have spurned. h*"icooiuii»i
His major novel, Native Son, Is the one that hurtled him into best-
sellmg prominence. In his story of Bigger Thomas' fatal defeat at the
Jaands of a cruel society, Wright is bitter and hotly accusing Native Son
is not the type of book that Hollywood casts in celluloid.
This is probably why Richard Wright made the film NATIVE SON
himself, reportedly In Argentina. It is the current showing at the Astor
Theatre, that showcase of forgotten film items. NATRHE SON is a
cm-ious and novel film. It is so deplorably amateurish in its first several
reels that you may feel like walked out of the theatre. If you do, you
will miss some exciting movie, exciting despite awkward handling and
inept technique.
The film opens with a view of the Chicago skyline while a narrator
quotes from Carl Sandburg: "Hog butcher of the world etc " Then to
the Black Belt in the Windy City and we are in the atmosphere of the
Thomases and the story of elder son Bigger, who never had a chance
The author himself enacts the role of Bigger, and it is a little sad that
Wright is no actor. He also looks much too intelligent for the trapped
dumb animal Bigger Thomas was.
Wright shared the script-writing, and so the film is quite faithful to
the novel. A judicious editor would have worked wonders with the
script and improved NATIVE SON'S impact. The actors on the whole
are unconvincing, reading their lines like high school players, with even
a "reading" intonation at times. At matter of fact, a collegiate per-
formance of "The Pirates of Penzance" last week had better acting' than
in this fUm.
But when the unfortunate and unwilling Bigger Thomas helps the
hi 1 ?Ii Dalton up to her bedroom, the film suddenly jumps into
h • .^P'** * tendency to overdo, Bigger's crime, his awkward attempts
"> pm the deed on someone else, his flight and his capture, all tele-
Mpe mto gripping excitement.
In one Innovation for the film, Bigger Thomas' murder of his girl
issisie Mears Is explained more sympathetically. He kills her when driven
mad by a nightmare full of symbolism. And the part played by the
^'Ommunist lawyer, Mr. Max, is considerably cut.
"^as intei-esting to note that at th^ film's end, the afternoon
audience at the Astor seemed to be on Bigger Thomas' side. The argu-
ent is, of course, presented in stark black-and-white terms, and this
earns sympathy and impact.
Mary Dalton, the stupid well-meaning instrument that starts the
'We don't wet our pants, do we'"
said the 50-year-old teacher to the
kindergarten pupil.
This was given as an example of
how we" strive to get along with
one another by Professor J. R See-
ley when he spoke at the Univer-
sity health service mental discus-
sion last night at the Toronto
Psychiatric Hospital. Prof. Seeley
said that the modern child goes
out into the world with a general-
ized knowledge to do his best, and
must orient himself in society by
acquiring the minimal clues to
proper behavior.
Parents are faced with a one-
sided bargaining in a child-center-
ed community, Prof. Seeley said.
Since every parent wants his child
to be "adjusted" he gives into
questions such as "Jeanie was
wearing lipstick at 16. why can't
I?" The whole emphasis is on
getting along with others and the
initiative does not lie with the in-
dividual parent to act.
Prof. Seeley contrasted this un-
certainty with the Puritans who
told their children what to do and
left them with their conscience.
"We" are living in a mass so-
ciety which is dominated by the
mass media, according to Prof.
Today
Seeley. He said that it is only
from the mass media that "we"
can know what to believe and that
there is a constant process in-
volved In knowing how "one Is
doing." As an example he said
that he was not sure whether to
say that Prank Sinatra Is "keen"
or whether he would be a "square"
lor saying this as Sinatra is per-
haps out of fashion.
Under these circumstances, See-
ley suggested, the self becomes a
mere instrument for telling a per-
son how he can remake himself.
He said that this was a complete
contrast to the Freudian person-
ality as this person Is apathetic
while the Freudian type is always
faced with conflict.
In this desire to be popular
Prof Seeley saw the emergence of
the kind of social organization por-
trayed by George Oi'well in 1984
When "we" manage to get along
with everyone else, he said "we"
will need to get along with onh
one— Big Brother. Stalin, whatev-
er "we" want to call him.
Anatomy is becoming a dlmln
ishing factor of ever-increasini
value. Prof. Seeley said. He cott
eluded that while it was not nece»
sary to be offensive towards othei
people, one should not aim at bs
ing inoffensive.

THE VARSITY
Friday, February 8, I95J
Interfaculty basketball is beginning to sliape up now
Since the first rounds have been completed in all ten groups.
In group I, St. Michael's College look like a sure
•finisher. The Mikemen coached by Jud Gibbs, a former
STarsitv player from Larchmont New York, are using a fast
breaking attack and beating their opposition to the punch.
'Jack hvanicki and Dick Trainor. two Sudbury boys, are the
tall men on the team, and Don Warren, one of the Americans,
has proven a valuable asset.
Although, its a long way to the end of the Pjf y""^-
St. Mike's boys look, like the top contender in majors.
Sr. Me.1.. and Sr. UC are tied for second place after yester-
dny's up-et by the Redmen and it will probably cause a run-
ner up sudden death tilt between these two.
Group II action is also quite tight and its doubtful
Whether Dents can hold onto their lead. .Ir. UC and Jr. Skule
Z Zh strong contender, with the t-n- ev™^y enough
matched for a three-way tie. Fedder and Gilbert are the
Ibig point getters for the Dentistry crew but unless they can
keep up their present pace this league will see some upset...
The Redmen shaded Skule 40-S9 in a very tight tilt m
the first round; action of this kind indicates upsets m the
near future.
I Senior Vic are setting the pace in Group III action. The
iVicsters, demoted from Group I, are determined to fight
their war back up. Jimmy Goo.lfellow has been p aymg
sensational basketball for the team and they look like a
Strong fighting unit.
No one can dismiss either Trinity or Pre-Meds from the
race. Sparked by Gord Montazambert, Neil Proverbs, and
Frank Sutton the Buttery Boys are wel balanced and have
enough stamina to go a long way. Ed Tile and Hugh McNe
are the stalwarts on the Pre-Meds outfit hut with their tall
players Meds present a very strong threat. There should be
%. tight scramble in this league. Probably Vic and one other
team will make the playoffs.
' In the last of the dual playoff groups, Forestry are
■head. Despite 6'4" Rob Keen and S'S" Jim Harris the Wood-
Outters are ahead because of rather poor opposition, these
major leaguers are not quite up to the standard in the upper
groups. Second playoff spot is another tossup, however.
There isn't much to choose between St. Mike's and SPS 111.
1 Below these groups only the leaders hit the post-season
schedule. UC IV are undefeated and are very well balaj-ced.
They are three points up on the pack making them probable
iCfroup V winners.
' The other lower teams are fighting out tight schedules
but none of them except the sui-prising SPS VI are strong
playoff material. This aggregate, obviously far underneath
their calibre in group IX are running away with this section.
' Boasting two Queen's intermediates from last year's
team, one player cut from the St. Blues, and star East York
graduate Dukert, the Skulemen are swamping their op-
ponents. Three of their players are above 6'4" and this might
help them go a long way in the playoffs. Don Ottaway down
trom the Blues is a fugitive from one of the St. Skule teams.
Outside of this bunch there don't seem to be any power-
houses below Group V.
Wortman Wins Interfaculty Mile

There were four water polo

36-32 win over previously unbeaten
St. Mike's. It was the first victory
of the season for the Skulemen,
who took full advantage of ragged
play on the part of the Mikemen.
Fran O'Connor, who played a
good game for the Double Blue
throughout, paced thetn to a 9-6
first period margin, but Hank
Tamowski's hook shot and free
throw pulled SPS into a 9-all tie

The last period was a thriller all
the way. After Pierce's set brought
Skule into a 24-all tie .the Engin^
eers swept into a commanding 32

.score 34-32. SPS broke up a last
second SMC drive to score its last
basket.
Best for the winners, who now
have a 1-3 record, was Tamowski
with H markers. Brown and Pierce

. The unbeaten Saints from Trin.

competition in their last scheruled
game yesterday, against POT, Of-
ten it seemed that the Saints' re-
cord would be shattered, but when
the last buzzer had gone, and the
spray had settled, the score was
found to be 2-0 for the TrinigaU.
Their goalie. Elsie Bongard, is
largely responsible for her team's
success, with a record of only one
goal scored against her during the
whole season.
Yesterday's game saw little ac-
tion in the first period. Stickhandl-
ing was at a low, and the puck was
merely whacked from one end to
the other. Tension mounted in the
second, as both teams tried to
score. Ann Mon-ow scored the fir^--
goal for St. Hildas on a surface
shot, straight on goal, which the
POT goalie failed to time accur-
ately. Molly Bark led the POT
squad Into the Saints' zone, time
after time, but failed to score-
In the third period, St. Hildas

the Aoiencans seem to fear. Eisenhower could best
serve his country by staying In Europe and con-
tuiulng the work which he has been preforming
with such success and to which he is eminently
Bulled.
Ike's status as % soldier, diplomat and slates-
man IS assured. Risking his reputation and the
welfare of the country Ui the yet untried haaards
of politics is uneconomical.
Having this summarily disposed to Eisenhower,
we must admit .we seem slightly kindlier inclmed
towards him on viewing the other horses In the
Republican stables.
The rest of the candidates for the Republican
candidature are embittered repeaters. They are at

Has a progressive attitude on forgelgn policy and
the experience to back it. He has no political
experience but his administrative capabilities are
proven. The Republicans of today are men whose
sole experience stems from their "eternal" role of

A five-star general in the White House would
probably imbue Americans with a false sense of

Ray Nash, a fourth year engin-

a public speaking contest held last
night at Hart House. The contest
was sponsored by the Engineering
Institute of Canada. Nash gave
his twenty-minute talk on "Solar
Heating."
There was a tie for second place
in the contest as the judges were
unable to choose between the first
two speakers. M. A. Harrison who
spoke on "Electronic Computor
Memory" and John Lawrence
who spoke oli "Nonmetalhc Bear-
ings" were the speakers who tied.
Harrison is in fourth year En-
gineering Physics and Lawrence
is in fourth Mechanical Engineer-
ing. The two other speakers were
Doug Sherk and R. Stevenson.
They spoke on explosives and fac-
tory maintenance respectively.
Judges for ttie contest were Pro-
fessor T. R. Loudon, Miss Elsie
MacGill, and Mr. Clare Can-uth-

While the judges were making
their decision a movie on steel
making was shown to the large
crowd of engineeilng students who

All Varsity Revue
Caput
To show the sympathy of the Unlver-
»ity of Toronto for the death of King
George VT, the Caput has decreed that
this year's All Varsity Revije shall not go
on. And it is only fitting that the stage
or Hart House Theatre should not rever-
berate under a kick-line the week of the
late King's funeral.
Constitutionally, the executive powers of
the Caput are vast. It is powerful in di-
recting undergraduate activities. By this
decree, it has shown an admirable sense
of decorum.
But if the curtailment of undergiadu-
ftte activities during the In-between
period of mourning had been a volun-
tary step on the part of the student, the
action would have appeared more sincere.
Kaput?
And so the show will not go on. Not
on the University of Toronto campus,
Kt least. Hart Hou.se Theatre has such a
(uli schedule that It could not house the
All Varsity Revue ijefore examination
time is leering aratmd the corner. A spe-
cial meeting of tJie Students' Administra-
tive Council has been called for today to
decide what is to be done. There is a
possibility that the AVR may be held on
R stage outside the campus.
In its short past, the AVR has showrii
■ kinship to the cat in its ability to
revive from what looked like a death
blow. Last year, the third yeaj- of its
existence, the scheduled Revue had to
be called off because a producer could
iwt be found. This year things looked
more hopeful, and the campus looked
forwai-d to seeing what the combined
eream of its talent could produce.
The idea behind the All Varsity Revue
Is to put on the best possible entertain-
ment that the undergraduates of this
campus can provide. Though practical dif-
ficulties have in the past made it an im-
possibility, the principle of the AVR con-
tinues to have student and SAC support.
As it Is, It looks as if mourning has been
forced upon the undergraduate body. It
was not given a chance to curtail its own
events out of respect for the King's pass-
ing, even though it has a governing body,
capable of taking just such steps.
Perhaps the fault lies with the under-
graduates themselves for not acting quick-
ly enough. Perhaps it is the fault of the
Caput for not giving undergraduate
opinion a preliminary hearing in this case.
Either way. the cancellation of the All
Varsity Revue, coming as it does from
the Caput, is faintly reminiscent of dis-
ciplinary measuies, rather than a spon-
taneous and sincere expression of the stu-
dent body's regret at the loss of a beloved
king.
If, as seems probable, the show does
not go on, the financial blow to the SAC.
which sponsors the show, will be severe.
If the AVR is Jield, there will still be a
considerable loss, because many lecture-
goers who have twught tickets for the
night performances will not be able to
attend matinees. And matinees seem the
only way for the AVR to squeeze in the
prescribed number of performances so
late in the school year.
The cancellation of the AVR for the
second consecutive year may mean a drop
in student support. Student opinion, hard
enough to raise, is bound to suffer from a
two year lag in something it was once
enthusiastic about.
We hope that the unavoidable cancel-
lation of the AVR this year may not prove
a second death blow. It would be regret-
table to see that the time, money and
enthusiasm which have been poured into
it have all been wasted.
In view of the gigantic efforts of the
cast and directors and the financial im-
plications, it is almost compulsory that
the AVR be staged, somewhere, this year.
How many death blows can one institu-
tion take?

Science and Society
Irmtif^nal All
This is the thirii in a series of articles by Michael
Humphries, IV Psychology, who attempts to show that the
obligation of the scientist to society is as great as that
of the layman.
To be heard in society the voice of
science must tw raised above the sten-
torian tyranny of outmoded habits. Un-
informed parents, senile systems of edu-
cation and the pressure of groups whose
primary function has become one of self
preservation, these are the forces which
produce the cerebral curtain of ignorance
against which we have to struggle.
Complicating this struggle is the fact
that the scientist is no less a product of
this system than is the layman. Long
before he has obtained his scientific train-
ing a very rigid pattern of emotional and
evaluative habits has been acquired. This
complex system of prejudices will never
be completely dissipated by his subsequent
experience^ How many of us have been
ashamed because we were frightened by
spiders and snakes long after we have
learned that they were harmless? How
often have we caught ourselves slipping
back into childhood habits of racial and*
religious prejudices? All the reasoning
and knowledge acquired after the forma-
tion of these habits seem powerless to
remove completely these dangerously ir-
rational reactions. Because the scientist,
too. is a product of the same basic cul-
tui'al determination, he is afflicted with
the same unreasonable impulses that
make life what it is for the rest of us.
For this reason we must be -no less
cautious with the scientist's value judg-
ments than we are with the evaluations
of anyone else. In fact the scientist's
pronouncements in this area should be
given even stricter scrutiny as he has the
power, potentially at least, to ensiu-e that
his goals are obtained. This does not
mean that the scientist would not contrib-
ute to the definition of the "good for
society". As Max Weber has said, it is
his damned duty to do so. However, what
he says in this regard should be given
the same consideration afforded the ex-
pressed views of the layman — no more.
Ultimately, as with the expression of all
opinion, his statements should be con-
sidered on their own merits, regardless
of his status in society. If we allow the
scientist more power than this we would
be granting him the authority we regard
as dangerous whenever limited t
select group. There is no guarante^
an oligarchy of scientists would
less tyrannical than other groupg^
been in the past."
The scientist as a man has one re
sibility he can not afford to ignore^'!"
author has suggested in a previous a
that science is the creation of
As the scientist is a member ■
his responsibility is to society at large
not to any one group or overnment
Wot'-'
that society. Suppose that while
for a private company or for one
government he should discover some a
ciple that could be used to harm
benefit society, depending on how it
used. What should he do? As he i, '
likely the first and only memiier'
society to appreciate fully the signUic-
of his discovery, he should publicly
nounce his findings and present hii i.
estimate of the consequences of any acii
based on them. When the implicati
have world wide application to human-
scientific discoveries should be pu
property, not private.
This view will undoubtedly raise <
in otherwise static regions, but it is
author's opinion that only by develop'
a professional ethic of this magnitude
otherwise selfish use of science be ch
Bd. The physician seldom places patt'-
boundaries between iTie acceptable
the non-aocept-able patient, not even <j
Jng a war when these distinctions
most frequently applied. Why not dev
in all scientists an international res"
sibility of the same order? Like the d-
tor, the scientists of the world should h
as their basic interest the well-being
all men. and not the selfish partisan
sires of any one group of men.
Possibly the international identifica"
which sems so necessary today will obl-
its early development at the hands o
group most accustomed to it — the sci:
tists. If society as a whole could e"
late the basic humility of the scien
and his determination to make cha\
in his theories if they don't seem to
the facts, then we may be able to %i
some of the problems that make inl
national co-operation so difficult at
moment.
Cat was siosning nis way across the
front campus, feeling vei-y dejected. This
has been a poor dav. To begin with, the
cafeteria in Hot House has burnt only one
side of his toast this morning, and if
that weren't enough, someone had actual-
ly put sugar in his coffee. These two
events in themselves would have floored
a lesser cat than Cat, but the final straw
had come when he learned that Pi-esldent
Sad-Eyes Snitch had gone on record as
saying, "Cat disapixiinted me. I knew that
he wasn't going \jo stand in the top 35%,
but I certainly didn't expect him to end
up in the bottom 65%."
This perplexed Cat no end. After all,
there are only so many percentages, and
he had to stand somewhere. Maybe the
President wanted him to take Remedial
French instead of Remedial English. So
with drooping whi.skers, Cat dragged him-
self Uito the Book Store, and stationing
himself he proceeded to drown his sor-
rows. Aimlessly his eves fixed themselves
on an article in The Farclty, which was
on sale on the magazine rack. After stag-
gering over and reinserting his eyes, Cat
perused the article carefully,
"Dr. Wallace states that students are
reading only half as many books as they
did twelve years ago.'' Cat being quick-
witted, this immediately rang a bell. (Cat
Is noted for his successes with Bell sing-
ers,>
'■Well", he chortled, "I'll show old Sad-
Eyes what percentage I stand in. This
ruice a. strophe isn't as bad as It seems.
All I do is read twice as many books
md I'm a lead piiie cinch to get an A
in that Remedial English course." "After
which admirable bit of logic. Cat, with
his whi.skers now as stiff as pokers, and
a fanatical gleam in his left eye. trotted
unsuspectingly over to the Main Library.
With a flourish. Cat dashed up to that
monstrous stack of file cards known as
the Micealogue, and immediately encoun-
tered his first difficulty. Did "S" come
after "R" and before "T" or vice versa?

and found his difficulty completely ie»-

These uiiversiUes have federat-
ed colleges, like Toronto, and
therefore their size did not alarm
Dr. Smith. He said that a feder-
ated university has the strength
which comes from the inlimate
nature of the smaller groups and
the strength that comes from a
large teaching staff and the great-
er economy of the larger unit.
Dr. Smith said that there are
only two Canadian univeisilies
which have federated colleges, and
that no other Canadian university
was so broken down into small
units as Toronto, President Smith
was president of the University of
Manitoba before coming to To-
ronto. He felt that federation had
not been carried as far at Mani-
toba as at Toronto.
The story in the Star said an
over-all screening of Varsity ap-
pUcants may not stop the high
failure rate. The Star said Mc-
Gill, Queen's, and Western have
lower failure rates and "markers
do little or no ■juggling' of stand-
ards—a practice which some Var-
sity professors have long admitted
in some courses."
President Smith said that the
University of Toronto has high
satndards and that Toronto Is not
the only Canadian University
which is concerned about fail-
ures,
Dr, Smith did not wish »o com-
ment or make a comparison b».
tween Toronto and other Can».
dlan Universities,

"We expect all of the five re-

in dates were announced over the

The Saturday matinee will run
as usual but there will be two Sat-

Goodman added that for the con-

Friday, it was decided that flv»

cancel all performances until after
the funeral of the late BUng, the
AVR was faced with the failure ot

The decision came after it wai

balcony viewpoint
^ By DAVE PEDDIE
The Jupiter Theatre last Saturday finished a two week run with
their BIGGEST THIEF IN TOWN. And they were playing to full
houses to the end, il one can judge from last Friday, when I saw it
lor the second time. It still seems innpossitole that a show produced and
•cted by Toronto actora should be able to get the support of narrow-
minded, staid and stuffy old Toronto, but the fact remains that people
were going to see it.
What is even more nnbcU«ve»ble is that the show reaUy merited
ftll the attention that it got. There is almost always sometliing amateur
and provincial ahout a local production; everyone is always too ready
-with excuses, and there is no professional polish. In fact some dilet-
tantes sneer at polish and call It very commercial and unartistic. But
THE BIGGEST THUEa^ IN TOWN to my mind showed us all that a
truly professional show is possible here, and that it is far more satisfy-
ing to a local audience. No matter how sincere the amateur production
may be. it ladts the better sincerity of a Job well-done.
Another very encouraging thing I noted last Fi'iday night was that
most of the actors had improved over their original shows. Budd Knapp
■who seemed almost perfect two weeks ago broadened his characteriza-
tion of the little undertaker without losing any of the subtlety, and
quiet dignity. Gerry Sarracini in what looks like a very thankless part
made his presence felt, so much so that he became for the audience
what he was for undertaker, Bert, someone to look up to and listen to.
Ed McNamara didn't ring very true when I first saw him and I think
he improved more than any, tout he has difficulties in forgetting that
he is an actor. Of course some of the others have become somewhat
stale and uninteresting; just haven't the staying power I guess, but
we'll leave them unnamed, now that the show is over.
What does seem particularly sad is that Jupiter should have started
in the accustomed home-town manner with GA-LOLBO which was
neither a good play nor an interesting play from the audience's point
of view. There was no really first-rate acting except from one person
in a small part and there was a very meager attempt at a finished pro-
duction. GALILEO seemed to be a concerted, if perverse, attempt to
keep audiences away from the theatre and then blame the failure of
the play on them.
Jupiter have now arrived at a draw position. They have neither
won nor lost. No one will be ablt to say the last word until their
season is over, but right now they have just balanced the books. And
their next play is more than a challenge. Another historical play,
SOCRATES, by Lister Sinclair is to my mind far superior to GAL-
ILEO, but it will have to be done superlatively well to convince an
nudience. It can be successful. Jupiter can get in the black on the ar-
tistic books, If it wants. But . . .
mx Will Report
On Trips Thursday
Syd Wax. President of the Stu-
dents' Council will report on his
trips to Edinburgh and Rio de
Janeiro Thursday altemoon in
Room 13. U.C. at 4 pjn. This speciaJ
open meeting will be mainly a ques-
tion and answer period, he said. If
anyone wishes to question Wax at
the start of the meeting on the
Edinburgh conference they may do
so. The main part of the meeting
will be devoted to a discussion of
conference of Pan-American stu-
dent unions in Rio de Janeiro,
from which he returned last week.
Wax is chaiiman of the Interna-
tional Activities Commission of the
National Federation of Canadian
University Students. He represented
NPCUS at both conferences.
Students of 25 nations gathered
at Edinburgh in January represent-
ing about two million students
throughout the world. As a result
of the conference an international
secretariat was organized to co-or-
dinate the acti^nties of the unions.
Wax attended both conferences
with Jean De Margerie, NFCUS
President.
At the Pan-American conference
the Canadian delegation hoped to
get the Brazilians to accept a seat
on the six-man secretariat.
The Edinburgh conference was a
follow up to the conference held in
December 1950 in Stockholm. This
conference was held as an attempt
to equalize educational facilities
and plan a program of mutual aid
and assistance to student unions
throughout the world.

SAC Sends Cable
To Ilo;^al Family
A cable of sympathy on the death
of King George VI was sent to the
Royal Family on behalf of the
University of Toronto undergrads by
the Students' Administrative Coun-
cil last. week.
President of the SAC Syd Wax
said that he had forwarded the
cable on behalf of the students and
with the consent of the SAC execu-
tive, in his name. Wax made the
announcement at a special SAC
meeting, Friday.
Tlie cable, which also cont-ained
congratulations to the new Queen
Elizabeth, was sent to the Honorable
Thibadeau Rinfrpt. Administrator
of Canada, at Ottawa. Mi'. Rinfret,
Canadian Supi'eme Court Justice, is
acting as administrator since Vis-"*
count Alexander of Tunis finished
his extended term as Governor-
General and until Vincent Massey
is installed as the new representa-
tive of the Crown in Canada.
The cable read: "May I request
Your Excellency to convey to Her
Gracious Majesty. The Queen and
to the members of the Royal Fam-
ily the sympathy and the affection
of the undergraduates of the Uni-
versity of Toronto on the sad oc-
casion of the passing of our beloved
monarch. King George VI.
"Would Your Excellency convey as
well to Her Majesty on her ascen-
sion to the throne, the loyalty and
devotion of the undergraduates of
the University of Toronto, Our feel-
ings are the more personal because
of the recent visit of Her Gracious
Majesty to our University-."

University Debating League.
Varsity debating teams defeated
their Osgoode Hall opponents on
Friday, to give them a possible
chance to meet the Quebec winners
for the IUDIj championship.
niichael Callahan, II St. Mikes
and Robert Collins, lU St. Mike's
defeated Osgoode debaters, Clayton
Fee and Stanton Hogg, in a debate
at Brennan Hall, while Walter Ea.
mon. IV SPS, and John Regan'
n St. Miite'fi, defeated NorniaiJ
Balfour and Cy Gould in a corre-
sponding debate at Osgoode Hail.
Both groups debated the same
resolution: "That in English-speak-
ing countries the struggle for indi-
vidua! liberty is being lost at home"
Collins and Callahan took the nega-
tive at Brennan Hall, while Eamon
and Regan took the affirmative at
Osgoode Hall.
'It is our power to do as we
please that distinguishes us from
our semi-barbaric ancestors," said
Fee, speaking for the motion. To-
day there are a number of factors
working against this power, he
pointed out, such as the giowth of
big business, of trade unions, and
of the welfare state. "We are sacri-
ficing our individual liberty to the
concept of the common good." said
Fee.
, "There is a difference between
liberty and licence," said CaUahaji,
first speaker for the negative. "For
freedom, we must not infringe on
the rights of others. The welfare
state represents a new concept of
the individual and an attempt to
enlarge individual freedom, which
depends so largely on economic se-
curity."
This is the first time in some
some years that Toronto has be-
longed to the lUDIi, which was es-
tablished in 1941-42 under NFCUS.
It now has its own constitution,
and most of the major univer^iti&^

Since the nineteen twenties, this same technique has been adapted

This current is fed to an amplifier which increases the power of

Fraternity
Value, Us^e
Challenged
Vancouver (CUP) — Controversy
over the fraternity question stirred
recently on the canipl of British
Columbia Dnlversity and the Ameri-
can ivy-league's WilUams College.
The Garfield Club at Williams
College last week carried out its
threat to disband unless all Wil-
liams students are given an oppor-
tunity to join fraternities. The col-
lege took over the duty of feeding
the 200 stuOents who had belonged
to the club, which is the residence
for incoming freshmen who are not
fortunate enough to be bid Into the
fraternities.
Striking out against "a social
stratification which regulates twen-
ty per cent of the undergraduates
to a position of second class citi-
zenship", the club criticized the Wil-
liams Administration for "in no
way evidencing a strong desu-e to
ameliorate the intolerable social
conditions on the WilUams Cam-
pus".
In ita statement on disbanding
last week it argued that a majority
of the student body favored insui-
ing the admittance of all student^;,
but that a dispute over methods of
enforcement had resulted in an ad
verse popular vote on the question
last month, rhie to this vote college
trustees decided not to force the
fraternities to accept all under
graduates, and preferred to search
out other methods for improving
•ocial conditions on the campus.
On the U.B.C. campus a similar
move to condemn the discrimina-
tory nature of fraternities was de-
feated by the Students' Council,
The resolution condemned fraterni-
ties as bigotted, restricting social
contacts, and setting up a financial
^ ""^'"^lliation in AMS
IU.B.C. Student Council) actlnties.
'The suggestion was also that
iraternity and sorority social events
conflict with those of the Student
Council, and should be made re-
."ponsible to the latter. Another
spcalier claimed that withdrawal of
fraternity recognition by the Senate
would solve very little afid might
make them more difficult to deal
with.

Atlas Ambition
Remedial English is beginning to take on dangerous as-
pects of permanency. Having pitctied the curative tents for
a year, the university seems eager to brick them into the
curriculum of the ailing student.
Like God, the university moves in mysterious ways. A
new library has been needed for thirty years; we are still
Waiting. University residences, particularly for those dis-
placed from Holwood Hall, are immediately necessary; they,
too, have been promised. University professors, despite re-
cent salary raises, are still notoriously underpaid.
Editor. The Varsity:
We hear a great deal no* about Canadian
Nationalism. This movement towards things
Canadian, towards a national self-awareness is
inevitable and very necessary for healthy de-
velopment, Of course any good thing can be car».
Tied too far. and lately there have been many as-
pects of this nationalism that have seemed to many
Canadians unwise and sometimes absurd.
Certainly the most controversial move towards
things Canadian was the recent appointment of
a Canadian governor-general. Most pe&ple agree
that If a Canadian had to be chosen Vincent Mas-
sey was the best, if not the only choice for the
office. Mr. St. Laurent astutely remarked at the
time that no one would like to think that a Cana-
dian could not represent His Majesty in Canada.
But has Mr. St. Laurent considered some of the
other native-born governors-general in the Brit-
ish Commonwealth now? •
In Australia the King's representative was for-
merly a member of the Labour party. When the
government changed there was apparently no
trouble, but his former colleagues were not so
happy. We heard rumours from their direction
that he had sold out to the new administration
■for an all-expense trip to England and the like!
The rest of the British Commonwealth abhors
the racial policy of the present government of the
Union of South Africa. Yet there, the Governor-
General, also a former member of the ruling
party openly supports and approves this selfish
and degrading policy and all it entails.
We believe the Crown should be above politics.
We hold this to be the first requisite of our Con-
stitutional Monarchy and it is perha4>s the ,maln
cause of our much-envied political stability. Yet
here are two vivid instances of this ideal flouted.
Inevitably in Canada as in the other Dominions,
a native governor-general will become a political
appointment and as a result the Ciown will be-
come tainted to say the very least with the politics
of the day.
The suggestion was made that our next gover-
nor-general come from another dominion if not
Great Britain. An excellent idea apart
heightening friendships between the several n'^
minions! It would be difficult, of course, to ri""
many prominent men not allied with some n
or another. But what we must have if the c
is to be kept aloof is a governor-general personal!
removed from the country's politics. AccorcUn "
a man drawn frwn another part of the Br^
Commonwealth is the best solution.

The possibilities of extending the remedial Eng.
llsh program outside University College to the
professional faculties and of implimenting screen,
ing tests for the guidance of freshmen were en-
visaged by President Sidney Smith yesterday.
Dr. Smith, who has just returned from a 22.000
mile round-trip to India, said that if money could
be found the remedial English courses would be
offered to students in the first year of the pro-
fessional faculties. The program would also be of-
fered to Victoria. St. Mike's and Trinity If these
federated coUeges desired to use It.

India A Lab Of Democracy
But Needs Leaders - Smith
President Sidney Smith Is back
on the campus again after a 22,000-
mile trip to India as a representa-
tive of the National Federation of
Canadian Universities (not to be
confused with the National Feder-
ation of Canadian University
Siudent^NPCUS).
Sun-burned Dr. Smith said yes-
erday that there is no country in
the world which is such a laboratory
of democracy as India, but to make
lemocracy work India needs trained
eaders, He said that India has 30
"lain universities with an enroll-
lent of 250.000 students to serve
' population of nearly 300,000,000.
Canada has 70,000 university stu-
l^nts for a population of 14,000,000.)
Smith said India needs assist-
ice from the western and common-
Wealth countries in training men,
particularly in the field of post-
Paduate studies.

Smith said that the federal govern-
ment is financing four universities
while joining with local govern-
ments . in supporting numerous
others. Dr. Smith was told that a
first-class honors man at Madras
is as well grounded as a fh'St-class
man at O.xford.
Many westerners left Indian uni-
versities when Indian independence
was declared in 1947, Dr. Smith said,
and it has been a real task to find
enough well trained Indians to
staff the universities. However, Dr.
Smith said that Indian universities
have made astounding progress
since 1947.
Dr. Smith found that the Uni-
versity of Toronto was exceptionally
well-known and was amazed at the
readiness and- eagerness of the
Indian students to come here for
furtlier studies. The contributions of
the Massey Fellowships to the
Indian Universities is all out of pro-
portion to the number given to
Dr. Smith hopes that the number
of Indian students coming to To-
ronto for post-graduate work can be
increased, and feeds that Toronto
has a real responsibility to help
train Indian students.
One of the questions Dr. Smith
was asked while in India was if
the University of Toronto has many
itudent strikes. Dr. Smith explained
that in India the students some-
times off the university when
not happy.
Dr. Smith was amazed 'at the
number of hostels for Indian stu
dents. He estimates that over 50
per cent of all India students live in
these hostels which serve student
.esidences.
He was also surprised by the num-
ber of women both studying and
on the staffs of the universities as
it was not many years ago that they
were kept in purdah. Dr. Smith
found Indian women on every fac-
ulty lie visited.
The Indians have a sense of in-
debtedness to the "British Raj",
and Dr. Slmth felt that the British
h; never been so popular. Dr.
Smith said the Indians were grate-
ful to the British for giving Ihem
the university pattern the structure
and spirit of the civil service, and
the system of administering justice.
After four weeks, traveling in
16 hops" about India. Drs. Gil-
mour and Smith headed back to
Canada on a Quantas (Queens- I
land, Australia and Northern Ter-
ritories Air Services) plane. They
arrived at Ciaro on the day after (
a fierce battle at Ishmaili between
Egyptian and British forces, and
were pU^ced under armed guard >
while waiting at the airport for
their plane to be re-fueled.
Dr. Smith arrived back on the
campus Friday to face the problems
of remedial English, college and
faculty council meetings . . , but |
so far ... no student strikes. i
Vice-president of the Victoria
College Union John Devereux last
night condemned the SHARE cam-
paign held on the campus this win-
ter as a poor and ' horribly loose
jomted effort." The VCU meeting
discussed the campaign in general
and Vies contribution in particular
Next year VCU rice-prcaWent
Will take charge of Vic's role in
any future ISS campaign on the
campus. Tliis motion was proposed
by S.\C rep Graeme Ferguson and
passed.
The Vic per capita contribution
was second to the bottom, accord-
ing to the interim SHAIIE report
published last week. Tliis is shame-
ful, Ferguson said, especially as Vic
usually takes the lead. He said that
few of those concerned exerted the
nece^ry effort. The campaign
would be more successful, he point-
ed out, !f a person were elected to
an executive position of the Assem-
bly on the understanding that he
would be in charge of the cam-
paign enabling advance planning?
John Lewis, I Vic, elected at the
December meeting, took charge of
the Vic sector of the SHARE cam-
paign this year.
Ferguson added that the idea of
a student aid campaign for foreign
students is worthwhile and will
probably be continued.
A motion that the personal can-
. vass m the men's residences be re-
opened was defeated by the Assem-
I wy. Lewis reported three men's
residences have not turned in re-
ports yet. The total contribution of
Victoria College was $302 (J60 from
men s residences).
Ferguson blamed the failure of
the residence campaign on the flio-
pant approach and lack of Informa-
tion about the campaign as given
by tJie canvflsserL-. He suggested
canvassers, be unified on the pur-
pose and methods of the campaign.
Tlie faculty has yet to be can-
vassed and we should make every
effort, said Ferguson.
Reporting od the sale of Victoria
College Christmas cards Ken Cork
said that a deficit of $151 had been
incurred. 500 dozen cards have not
been sold as yet.
The VCU liad budgeted for a 48
cent profit on the sale of each doz-
en cards. On the basis of this
Cork moved that the profits which
would have been made on the sale
of Vic Christmas ards, be given to
SHARE.
The motion was defeated because
It seemed poor policy to donate the
profits from a loss to a charity
Ti-easurer Bill Andrews suggested'
tliat the VCU wait imtil next year
and give any profits from the
Christmas cards to next year's
charitable campaign.

Tely's Ted Reeve
Warns Columnists
Need Thick Skin
Sports writers have to be opin-
ionated, and they need thick skins,
but it's still better than swinging
a pick and shovel, according to
Ted Reeves, Toronto Telegram.
Yesterday Reeve gave the second
in the series of talks on journal-
Ism sponsored by The Varsity.
He was speaking on the Inside
Pianist
Glenn Gould
What makes a musician "great"?
Whatever it h, Glenn Gould, one
of the youngest performers to at-
tain the honor of a Hart House
recital, certainly had that quality
lost Simday. The concert was one
of the most memorabJe in my four
years, of listening to Sunday Even-
ing Concerts.
The performance of the Bach
Partita no. 5 in G was a delight,
■^lis partita, like the rest, is a suite
for piano consisting of a prelude
followed by a number of formal
dances, all in the same key or a
very closely related one. Each of the
dances is in two parts, each of
which is intended to be r^eated.
It's a small thing, but the fact
that Gould played all the repeats
gave the performance a special
charm for me. The repeats recall
the dance-like nature of the move-
ments, and also represent some-
thing of the spirit of an age less
hurried than ours.
Even in the most raind of the
dances, Gould's playing never de-
generated into a hailstorm of notes,
He lives and feels the shape of the
phrases, and the distinctness of the
parts. He also conveyed to the au-
dience some of the humor of one
of Bach's most joyous woriLS — ^for
instance the quiet little coda on the
end of each section of the Alle-
mande.
In his playing, he managed to
imitate on the piano some of the
characteristics of the older key-
board instruments for which the
work was written. Each dance was
given its "registration" in terms of
tone and dynamics, and within this
narrower frame, Gould achieved
variety by slight and subtle grada-
tions.
The transfer of the older virginal
music of Gibbons and Swelinck to
the piano was less successful. In
spite of Gould's very discreet pedal-
ling, the flamboyant ornaments
and brilliant figuration ol these
pieces had a murky, rumbling
sound on the piano. Actually these
are bravura pieces for an altogether
different class of instrument, and
suffer considerably in transcrip-
tion.
After playiBg two Bralims inter
mezzi Gould plunged into modem
music— Alhan Berg's Sonata in one
movement, and as an encore, part
of an even more drastic sonata by
Krenek. Again, his feeling for
phrasing and musical contour
made Some rather difficult music
into listening pleasure.
Gould's masterly self-control make
his performances the subtle things
he evidently wants them to be. He
gives evidence that his fingers and
his mind keep pace with each oth-
er, and in the case of a musician
like Gould, that means great play-
ing. Let's be sure we have him
again next year.

said.
Asked about the present trend to
smaller gates in Toronto, Reeve
said that this was partly caused
by TV, and partly by the traffic
situation. He said that he got
discouraged bucking the evening
traffic to go downtown to a game,
even though he liked the game]
and had free passes.
Reeve said that he felt that the
lack of interest in basketball in
Toronto was due to the fact that
the game was "too much score,
and not enough body contact", and
lacks the crowd appeal of hockey.
Reeve said that he was seldom
stuck for material to fill his col-
umn, because there were so
many people from the old country
in Toronto who are interested in
the British soccer and rugby
games. He added that a lot of the
local interest in out-of-town game
scores was due to the influence ol
the office pool.
People want to read about some-
thing they've seen. Reeve said,
but he has found that radio and
television have stimulated a lot
of interest in American sports,
baseball and tooxine in particular.

The
Plot
By RUTH RAYSOW
"Parking on this side," "No
Parking on this side," say signs
all over the campus with, the in-
tention of discouraging motorists
from parking on both sides of the
roadway.
Well, mishapfl will occur and
some cars do park on each side
ol the street. So, what's the re-
sult?
A famous speaker is scheduled
to speak on something or other
and one of the students decides to
bring his. car down, it's dark out
our students is driving along
*t his customary clip of 40 miles
per hour (in the city) safe in the
fcnowledge that the sign says "No
Parkuig on This Side."
He catches a fleeting ghmpse of
* dark shadow where there
E&ouldn't be one. but he doesn't
worry about it until he discovers
Jiat he's minus his left front
lender.
Then there's the motorist who
*"es to squeeze past two parked
around one of the "islands"
front campus or in the SAC
parking lot. A substantial Increase
in vocabulary can be made by
standing and listening to the
driver, especially when he fmds
that he cant get through the
space.
The same result plus can be ob-
tained when one driver makes a
sharp left-hand turn up between
two parked cars while another car
is coming straight down to meet
the car coming up. if both drivers
have their wits about them the
results should l>e no more serious
than a few gray hairs and a
stomach ulcer.
Then there are the .students who
come unexpectedly from both sides
of the street going to and from
their Englisli lectui'es, darting in
and out between the same parked
cars, as another car comes rolling
merrily up uie road or around a
corner. Tlie poor driver hasn't a
chance then. He'd better give up
driving or get an additional pair
of eyes.
All of which goes to prove that
there's one hell of a parking prob-
lem on the University ot Toronto
Campus.
Hart House roof might solve the
problem beautifully. Long twist-
ing driveways stretching every
which way from Hoskm and the
front campus up to the roof might
give the University the appear-
ance of being something out of
the future but with a little bit of
ice on them they'd make enticing
slides during the whiter.
Dodging cars gohig up and down
might be a little nerve- wracking
to the drivers at fh-st, but after
the first hundred or so accidents
It should become second nature to
the student drivers.
And who knows, when the Uni-
versity isn't being used by the
students duiing the summer, it
might become a second Indian-
apolis speedway!
to three shows on Saturday and
shows on Monday and Tuesday of
next week.
Between 9:50 ajid 10:00 a.m. yes-
terday morning about 14 students
had lined up in front of the Hart
House Theatre box office to ex-
change theu* tickets. When the box
office opened at 10:00 a.m. and
after they had changed theh- re
served tickets for the original ex-
change Uckets, these students had
to go up to the Student Administra-
tion CouncU (SAC) office to get new
exchange tickets.
Since the SAC office did not open
unta 11:00 ajn. the students had to
form a line in the hall of Hart
House in front of the office. By the
time the office opened this Une
stretched along the hall and down
on to the inside front steps of Hart
House.
But that wasn't aU. After the new
exchange Uckets and been received
these AVR "faithfuls" had to go
down to the theatre box office again
and get reserved tickets. Lectures
were missed during these three ex-
changes but it seems the tickets
were valued more than the lecture.
Many of the students in the lUie
felt a .better system of exchanging
the tickets could have been devised.
They said one exchange at the box
office should have been sufficient.

Thomas
Thomas U Thomas is a singer
whose frank purpose is to delight
the audience with his attractive
personality. To this end. he selected
last Thursday *id Saturday for
performance in Eaton Auditorium a
program consisting entirely of pieces
suited to his easy-going mamier.
The fact that some of the music
he performed was also musically
worthwhile troubled neither him nor
his audience. His program included
some very fine music by little-
known composers, but not, appar-
enUy as a result of Mr. Thomas'
musical erudition, but simply be-
cause hts search for pleasant, melo-
dious songs has carried him far
afield.
In his Italian group. Mr. Thomas
Included a beautiful song by Sal-
vatore Rosa. In the French group,
there was a song by the little-
known operatic composer. Mehui.
and also a seldom-heard one from
Berlioz's "Damnation of Faust".
But side by side with some things
of real musical merit was a good
deal of rather over-ripe trash.
Mr] Thomas' voice ifl^a well-culti-
vated baritone. He has none of the
unpleasant boom nor any of the ex-
cessive vibrato sometimes heard in
Italian-trained singers. On the other
hand, he has as agile a tongue
as any Italian. "With this equip-
ment he is able to maite a very per-
sonal appeal to the listener.
Musically the best group was a
set of four Welsh folk-songs, sung
in the origbial tongue. Mr. Thomas
sang them with warmth and proper
simplicity, and without undue sen-
timent. His clear enimciation of
the strange language gave these
songs an added interest.
For encores, Mr. Thomas sang a
number of admittedly silly songs,
in which he displayed to an aston-
ishing degree the rapidity and clar-
ity of his enunciation. One should
not censure him, eitlier for the pro-
gram or for the encores. This sort
of thine has its place, and Mr.
Thomas seems to know enough to
keep it there. „ .

There are two things that Hollywood can do extremely well. These
are musicals and westerns. We haven't had a good musical in quite',
while, with the exception of the ambitious AN AMERICAN IN PARig
Westerns have been much more frequent and some have been reward,"
ing, but they have tended to follow a new cycle ot "different" westerns
This week, however, a real slam-bang old-fashioned western is ply,,
ing in town. It is BEND OP THE BIVBB (LoeWs Uptown) and it is I
real treat. You should get right into the spirit of things, and find
exciting stuff. "
Unlike most old-fashioned westerns though, BEND OF THE RlVBtj
has a solid story and a script brightened with nice bits of humor. ji„,.
my Stewart is his western self here. Laconic and tough ("fastest man
on the draw ever saw"), a former Missouri border raider, Stewart is
trying to go straight by helping a group of settlers make a new hoije
in the Columbia River valley in the Pacific Northwest. The muted
Technicolor makes the most of the beauty of the Oregon scenery.
Indians are a little trouble, but they are disposed of in hand-to,
hand nightfighting. It is the greed for gold that brings villainy into
full flower and turns the little Portland, Oregon into a den of evil.
Trying to get overdue supplies for the mountaintoound settlement]
Stewart and Co. run into all kinds of trouble in Portland and on the
flight back.
Another ex-badman. Arthur Kennedy, who was rescued earlier by
Stewart, is first friend then later enemy of the hero. But before Stew-
art disposes of him. there are various miscellaneous villains, second
class, you understand, who clutter up the way. The elimination ot all
the bad fellows, while trying to get the supplies to the camp the hard
way over the mountains before the snows, make up an exciting movie.
Imaginative camera work contributes handsomely to the beauty and
excitement.
The womenfolk, there is one for Stewart eventually, and another
for handsome young gambler (tut good guy) Rock Hudson, are more
or less kept in their place and watch the goings-on. It is Stewart and
Kennedy who bear the burden of the film, and both are very satisfy,
ing,
Arthur Kennedy Is the competent actor whose work in BRIGHT
'VUCTORY has netitcd him new recognition. As chief villain, Kennedy
hams his way with nasty laughs and dangerous snarls. Jimmy Stewart
forgets most of the time that he is Mr. Smith in Washington and con-
vinces everyone he is a tough guy, lank and lean and deadly.
A short THE ROARING GAME, is included in the Loew's Uptown
program Made in Canada by Gordon Sparling, it is a non-National
Film Boai-d deal. The Roaring Game is curling, and the short does an
effective and interesting bit ot explaining how and why the game is so
popular In Canada, especially in the prairies. This short is detmite proof
that the National Film Board hasn't a monoply on good Canadian-
made films.
This is a profitable movie week. QUO VADIS. the colossus of film

George J. McLeod Ltd..
(439 cartoons), $fi.75.
Beside yo^^ favorite easy chair,
end table or something as
udy you should keep Bill Maul-
„'s Army, to delve into when the

llection of the war cartoons
ilch have left a vital imprint
the thinking of our generation.
,p only difficulty in keeping this

mother, sister, wife or mis-
whoever does the house-
leaning, will probably spirit it
somewhere. Not in the in-
rests of neatness, as may hap-
in to your pipe or newest maga-
ine, but to pore over herself.
Bill Mauldin's skill as a car-
5onist is commonplace today. As
le greatest World War II car-
lonist, his influence has been as
eat on his contemporaries as was

like Bruce Bairnsfather on

fWplf" stereotype of this sort is
fcrto ^u. Mrs. Deegan feels, to pro-
realistic bite differs from Bairns-
father's "Better 'Ole" humor.
Since Up 'Front surged into the
best-seller class in 1945, Mauldin's
often blunt and sometimes subtle
comments on men in war are
familiar parts of the American
culture. BiU Mauldin's Army is a
compilation of 439 published and
unpublished (in book form) car-
toons which deal with army life.
Beginning with training camp com-
ments (some of which illustrated
the book, News of the 45tb, about
the service paper in which his
cartoons first appeared), the core
of the book is made of the tre-
mendous overseas cartoons (the
meat of which were in Up Front).
A few of the opening cartoons
about discharge from Back Home
complete Bill nfautdin's Army.
Unlike previous Mauldin works,
there is not text, beyond the car-
toon captions. In some ways, I feel
this is a weakness, since Up Front's
pungency was enhanced by the
simple Mauldin etching-in of the
context of the cartoons, and Back
Home's strength lay in its angry
prose than its hastily-done car-
toons. But then today, nearly
seven years after the war's end,
Mauldin's cartoons have become
WW2 cliches, so perhaps the lack
of prose is not a serious handicap,
It has been said that Mauldin's
cartoons would not find the same
popularity among the dogfaces in
the Korean peninsula. (This has
been said by someone in the
United States, not by dogfaces in
Korea,) This argument may be
based on the fact that Kore.an war
is fought 'on a different ideological
framework. Or it may even
based on a fallacious belief that
the new war- has brought about a
different relationship in the army
and a washing-out of the reasons
for gripes among the lowly front-
line men. Even if these facts were
true, they would not diminish the
meaning fulness of what Mduldin
has to say in his cartoons even to-
day,
BiU Mauldin's cartoons are not
anachronisms; it Is stiil the same
war. Or rather, war is the same
thing so far as human values are
concerned. And, that is what Bill
Mauldin tried to say in these hard-
hitting often bitter but never dis-
illusioned cartoons, clt is true, of
course, that men fighting in Korea
have an additional difficulty. Un-
like the battle against the Fascist
states, the new war does not have
clearly-defined pui-poses that men
can understand. But in the front-
lines, to most soldiers, survival is
the password, not a fight for the
Four Freedoms or against Soviet
dictatorships
Because is damaging to hu-
man values and standards, whether
in 1915, in 1943 or in 1952, a persual
of Mauldin's cartoons seems vital
today in a world of disunited na-
tions. We are not hopelessly lost
in an abyss of atomic chaos yet.
But if we come to the day when
protest against what war does" to
the saner human ideals is out-
worn, then that abyss will be our
own crowded univer.sal hell,

Twiss' 'long. Long Trailer''
Tells Of Trip Through States
THE LONG. LONG TRAILER— by
Clinton Twiss, Embassador, 1951,
S3.75.
Tiie Long, Long Tfailer by Clin-
ton Twiss is the net result of one
year's travellinc (orieinally in-
tended to be m'o) through a large
part of the United States in a long
trailer officially christened Moby
Dick, but better known by its
nickname The Monster.
A pleasantly garbled mixture of
humor, wit and travel, Twiss's
book provides four qf five hours
(depending on how fast you read)
of amusement and a refreshing
change from city life to the ever-
changing scenery of the 48 states
and the life of the trailer camps
where a new locality always
means new neighbours, new ex-
periences.
The whole thing started when
the Twisses, Mr. and Mrs., decid-
ed to take their first vacation in
ten years, a long vacation, "one
mad fling" that would make up for
all the vacations they hadn't had.
They liquidated most of their
belongings. Twiss left his televis-
ion work and they set up a bud-
get to sort of control things— see
that they didn't go overboard in
their spending—^ budget that be-
gan to go up in smoke right from
the beginning when they paid twice
as much for the trailer as they
bad expected to.
Loading the trailer was a feat
in itself. Things packed away
first had a habit of popping out
again into the trailer to make
place for things yet to come. In
short, the trailer was a MESS.
They finally managed to get tilings
stowed away and then the fun be-
^^a' fareweU cocktail party for
their friends took on the resem-
blance of a night spent in a boat
loaded with chinaware in the mid-
dle of a storm.
The first stop of The Monster
was with Merle Twiss's family
where the author had the unpleas-
ant job of backing up the trailer
into the driveway beside the house.
There's something special about
backing un a trailer. Experienced
trailerites had only "shaken their
heads sadly" when the author
had questioned them about this
delicate subject. Live and learn
was their attitude and the sooner
the better. ... „ . ,
The casualties of his first at-
tempt were: one lawn, one tree,
one house and a variety of tem-
pers. This necessitated a prac-
tice session on the Mojave Desert
doing manoeuvres with The Mons-
ter that turned into a roadside
performance for passersby.
Whitebird HiU was another ob-
stacle that had to be traversed
by The Monster, A mountain, the
author learned after crossing it,
that was avoided by trailers like
the plague.
Tb^ me^tine with the Culpeppers
and their fuchsia car and trailer
came under tne heading of "Ex-
periences not to be repeated."
The Culp^pers subsisted entirely
on anchovies, crackers, sharp
cheese, burlwn, Scotch and beer.
A three day diet of this was enough
to make the Twisses swear off ev-
erything for life except the last
three items, and the only oppor-
tunity for the author to get his
teeth Into a steak was rjiifi'ed when
he spent the whole lunch hour lin-
ing 14 parking meters with change
to accommodate the two trailers.
Various other amusinc incidents
marked the Twisses' journey
through the States, like going to
Mexico just to turn The Monster
around in the opposite direction.
Merle trying to prepare chnner in
a violently lurching trailer, and at
a clam bake at one of the trail-
er camps, the incident of one of
the trailerite's son getting himseH
wedged into the opening of Ben-
dix washer.
The budget finally put an end
to these shenanigans and the Twiss
family finally had to return home.
Result: one book entitled The Long.
Trailer, and preparations for an-
other trip.
Anybody know where there's a
trailer tor sale cheap?

BOOK REVIEW EDITOR
The first issue of the Trinity Review for 1952 Is largely devoted to
commemorating the i-estlval Year. Excerpts from Salterrac provide
glimpses Of College activities during the rail term and the Editorial
is taken up with reminding aU good Trinity studenU of their heritage
and responsibility to the future. One-fifth of the issue is given over to
the usual Births, Marriages. Deaths and Graduates. Finally, two pages
provide blank forms for ordering a forthcoming history of the College.
Pollowing fast upon ail this data comes an article by Provost Seeley
on The Universities and The Free Society and a scholarly piece by
P H. Cosgrave on The Book of Kells (evidently Trinity was presented
with the onlv copv of this work in Canada'. A few poems are sprinkled
throughout and an unexpected flash of entertainment breaks througli
in Jean Ferris' Survey of English Literature.
All of which leaves us with very little to .say from a literary .-stand-
point except that we thought John Grube's poem one of the best pub-
lished in any College Mae^lne curmg our term of office antt we'd hlw
to quote it in full:

Blues B-Ball Action
Kofmel Sets New Record
Wins Interfac 440 In 53.6
• — Pfioto by Art Chetwynd.
Shown above Is some of the action from the Blaes game with As-
comption College. In this game the Blues revenged an earlier upset
defeat by Assumption. On the right can be seen Lou Lukenda, one of
the Varsity stars. TUs game martted the first of a three-game winning
streak which has pot the Blues near the top of the Intercollegiate
League. The Blues will be out to defend their undefeated home
record in Saturday night's game against Buffalo State during Athletic
NIte.
Buffalo Visits
Coming A-Nite
After several week's absence,
the Athletic Night returns this
Saturday. With two sets of intra-
mural finals. Intercollegiate Ufts-
ketball and swimming this A-
Nite will be 'another varied pro-
gram.
The Basketball Blues take on
Buffalo State in one of the inter-
collegiate events. The Blues are
xmdefeated at home and will be
out to maintain their record. How-
ever, their opposition is of very
good quality and this should make
for excitement.
In Hart House pool the swim-
ming team will face Wayne Uni-
versity. "The swimmers have a
very good record this season win-
ning both of their last two ef-
forts at Buffalo. However, in their
first appearance at Hart House
they dropped the last event to
lose the meet.
In the interfacuHy wrestling fin-
als, most of the winners will prob-
ably be the intercollegiate com-
petitors. Except for Orie Loucks
who is away with his course and
Robinson, Hatashita, and- Golden-
berg who are ineligible the Blues
will be out in full force to contest
start on Wednesday with the final
Friday.
With the Intercollegiate cham-
pionships coming upon February
23 at Hart House the wrestlers
will be trying to impress mentor
Kirk Wipper for the big event.
Immediately after the intercol-
legiate swimming and senior in-
terfaculty championships will take
place. Probably most of the pun-
ior winners will be out to give the
old boys some competition.

week-end. The first game will
commence at 2 p.m. on Saturday
afternoon and the second will be
played Monday night starting at
p.m.
These games will be played in
place of last Friday's- scheduled
games here which were both can-
celled due to the death of the King.
Monday night's contest will be
part of a doubleheader, with a
prep-school game between U.T.S.
and U.C.C. to follow at 9 p.m.
Varsity students will be able to
see both games for the same price
of admission — one A.T.L. card.
Meanwhile the Blues are buckl-
ing down to some serious prac-
tices. In order to remain in a con-
tending position the locals will
have to secure at least three of
the four points at stake.
Paul Prendergast is the only
casualty at the present time but
is expected back in time for Sat-
urday's game. He has been side-
lined since last Wednesday with a
severe throat infection. Pete Ver-
non's Injured shoulder has re-
sponded to treatment with the re-
sult that he will take up his regu-
lar position alongside of Norm
Fox and Al Conboy.
Laval at present holds a four-
point advantage over the Blues In
the league standing and have play-
ed two more games than the Blues.
Laval also is the only team that
the Blues haven't beaten so far.
Varsity has dropped two decisions
to the Blues and Gold of Laval
by scores of 4-3 and 6-3, in Quebec
City.
HOCKESr
UC rolled up a 4-0 score against
POT yesterday in a B league
game.
Mary McDerment, captain of the
UC-ers, netted the first goal. The
second period saw the POT girls
move into the UC zone on repeated
breakaways, but attempts to score
were foiled by UC goalie Judy
Carew. Daphne Walker slapped
the puck into the corner to give
her team a 2-0 lead; then cashed
in on a POT penalty with two
nice tallies. Molly Bark and Breta
Fredrickson sparked the POT
line-up, and Anne Innis, defence-
man, with Daphne Walker, chief
goal-getter, spearheaded the UC
attack for the afternoon.
VOLLEYBALL

Vic H's by the first score of 40-

lead in the non-rotation first half.
For the Saints, Daphne Cross.

The second game of the even-
ing showed Vic I lose to St.
Hilda's I by a score of 42-20. Vic
started off well and even had the
Saints worried for a while until
St. Hilda's spiking line began to

SHARE: What Now? S«ie»««e and society
Weird and wonderful are many of the statements. and
accusations that have come from the lips of the University
College Literary and Athletic Society, sometimes with a
grain of truth in them, sometimes not.
The latest charge is against the committee for Student
Help to Asian Relief and Education, for the method in which
its campaisn was conducted. It seems strange that such criti-
cism should come from the UC Lit, when University College
ranked thirteenth out of seventeen contributing faculties
and colleges.
In principle, the Lit supports the SHARE campaign. In
practice, the College it represents does not lend the financial
support which is the life blood of the campaign.
The Lit deplores that only about $1,000 of the $6,000
raised to date for SHARE will go to Asian relief. The rest
of the money is swallowed up in commitments to ISS and
campaign costs.
The point now is that any money raised from here on research in the social sciences, unless we do more
in will go almost entirely to Asia, since sufficient has already worlt than we are now. in the area of interpersonal
been raised to pay off the commitments. The stress now relationships, tlie proposed solutions to_-.social ills
should be on what can be done in the future to raise more
money. We suggest more events. A jazz concert and swim-
ming meet for SHARE have been scheduled for the near fu-
ture. But that, we think, is not enough.
Canvassing is now being conducted of outside resources
and University staff. Even if this makes up the additional
$5,000 needed to reach the objective, which is doubtful, mon-
ey raised by special events will not be unwelcome. A cam-
paign never suffered by going over the top.
A letter on this page defends the SHARE committee for response obtained is merely a nice now at
its campaign methods. In doing so, its writer gets involved appropriate noises. The benefits accruing from

Research Mit^!
This is Ihe final article in a series by Michael Humphries,
IV Psychology, who attempts to show that scientific re-
search is essential to society \ is discouraged by poor pay
and inadequate stimulus. .
To conclude this series the author would like to
reiterate i-he plea that should be voiced through
every possible channel of communication. "We
want research, we want research, we want re-
search!" Without exaggeration the well-being of
society is determined largely by the amount and
quality of research it is able to support. Research
has 'become a natural resource we cannot do with-
out. In the future whatever improvement we may
obtain in the social conditions of life •will be a
function of the degree to which society encourages
will be little more than plaintive pleas, vague
promises, and the. endless flow of meaningless
words, words, words!
Like the development of all natural resources,
research costs money, but tlie original investment
has to be made before returns can be expected.
Most people recognize the necessity for research,
but unless it can be shown that the particular
program submitted is of immediate value, the

We also criticized the plan of conducting a campaign of ^.jj ^^^tinue to grow
only one week duration — especially at a time so soon after
the Christmas vacation. At this time, students are not very
wealthy. Nor did the proposed date for the one-week collec-
tion allow enough time after Christmas for a crescendo of
publicity to be built up.
It is charged that the very integrity and honesty of this
year's campaign managers were being questioned when we
asked the questions, "What happened to AVA's money?"
and "Why no SHARE financial report yet?"
The first question was asked 'because when students
have given money to one campaign, it is only natural that
they would want to know how it was received before they
contribute to a second whose main point of difference was
its name.
The second question was asked because, although the « ___ _____ —
campaign had been officially over for two weeks, there had ncAncDC xa/ditc
BO far been no inkling of its success. One of the best stimuli OUR REAPERS WRITc
to interest in a campaign is a gentle reminder of its pro-
■gress. The Toronto General Hospital drive for funds kept its m j W 1
contributors constantly informed, and that campaign went Ml SkM^ CHI till© iPcl.C*MC
far over the top.
One of the reasons for a lack of research in the
social sciences is Lhe salary paid to these workers.
Why it is that the researcii worker must be so
poorly paid Is beyond me! Perhaps it is considered
that he, like the artist, works best on an empty
stomach. Both the ai'tist and the scientist disagree
with this opinion, tout it does not seeoi to make
any difference. If this is how society values the
work of the researcher, no wonder students stay
away in droves. This attitude on the part of
society ensuies, however that only those will be
attracted who are more devoted to their work
than they are to their stomach or to their health.
This method of selection, although guaranteeing
that we get no chaff, throws out more wheat than
we arc able to retain.

After long periods of trying to stimulate publie
interest in research, they have been saddled witli
oppressively large teaching duties and have t
treated into the realms of musty rhetoric. They a
casualties whose one comDiaint is that they were
wounded before they got into action. How can
they possibly convey to stuaents the enthusiasm
necessary to offset the forces that make research
such a thankless task?
What is the solution? In the first place, we
should encourage the powers that be to spend
more money on basic research, and on the train-
ing of those people who show interest and ability.
Secondly, to provide students with the opportunity
to show their interest and ability, we should modiiy
the university system to decrease the time needed
to learn material that can be obtained from any
good reference library, so that considerably more
emphasis could be given to individual research.
Thirdly, each department should contain several
competent individuals whose main function would
be to do research and to encourage students to dj
the same. Mlany graduate schools in Europe and
America use this system. Would it not be possible
to encourage the same type of system at the under-
graduate level?
Only by this type of intensive investment in the
future can we develop, to its full power, the modem
natural resources on which our future rests. If
we fail to make this investment, the loss will be
ours and the damage irrevocable.
- Although we wonder at criticism of the SHARE cam-
paign methods coming from the UC Lit, we agree with them
that there is room for improvement.
But the SHARE campaign is not over yet.
Comment
It IS gratifying to see that the AU-Var.sity Revue has mas-
tered its difficulties, and that the show will go on after all
. . . An ad in Friday's Varsity announced an Engineering So-
ciety movie entitled "Refreshment Through the Years".
Large letters at the bottom of the ad invited "Bring your
own lunch." Apparently the sponsors of the movie missed
the obvious publicity angle.

Editor, The Varsity;
So last Tuesday the UC Lit.
decided to " — approve the ain:is
and objectives of SHARE, but
deplore the means by which the
campaign was conducted." This
is not the first slap against
SHARE. The Varsity has printed
periodic attacks on campaign
mismanagement. The very name
SHARE has been criticized. Even-
the personal honesty of the com-
mittee has been questioned, not
directly, but by implications of
"What happened to AVA's
money?" and "Why no SHARE
financial report yet?" Dishon-
esty and malpractice should be
exposed when they occur, but
sincere efforts should be en-
couraged. In fact, the SHARE
campaign was one of the best
conducted I have known,
As regai-ds AVA, I have tjje
personal assurance of the Na-
tional Chairman of ISS, Dr.
John Coleman of the Mathema-
tics Department, that all AVA
receipts were used honestly and
with commendable efficiency. He
. examined all correspondence and
financial statements bearing on
this, including the letters of ack-
knowledgment of receipts of our
gifts by the Asian Universities.
I am not on the SHARE com-
mittee, but know some of the
member-s personally. They are
all students. They are honest
and capable as any to be found.
Like you and me. they were short
of time and now some will prob-
ably get lower 'exam marks be-
cause of SHARE work. Perhaps
they made some mistakes. Who
doesn't? But as an Interested
bystander. I have seen no seri-
ous mistakes, and certainly no
intentional default of duty, At
first no booth was .set up in the
UC front hall. This wa^ the UC
Lit's own respon.sibility and was
soon rectified. The interim re-
port to the EAC published in
last Wednesday's Varsity shows
that the person to person canvass
was as successful as any held on
a large Canadian campus. Uni-
versities like Acadia, however,
still put us to shame by their
per capita giving.
Raisins money on this campus
is difficult. Those who have tried
call it "the cut-throat scramble
for a dollar." The members of
SHARE undertook to collect
money merely because the cause
was necessary and right. Prob-
ably their job was harder be-
cause they weren't selling any-
thing; they asked for donations
when the donon received nothing
hut satisfaction. Yet they col-
lected more money from the
campus than did AVA, and still
have outside businesses, etc., W
canvass. This with somewhat re-
duced enrolment and less en-
thusiastic publicity than AVA.
They have and will continue to
work hard and long. This Otji^
versity owes them not the uG

of thanks for a job done earnef-
ly, capably, and successfully.

A Co-op Bookstore?
Editor, The Varsity;
There are many instances when
centralization offers advantages.
There are also many when it does
not. The University Book Store Is
an example of the disadvantages
offered to a large group of stu-
dents, especially those in the pro-
fessional faculties. A large pea--
centage of the text-books used by
them are published by three or
four large US publishing houses.
Thus, an engineering teixt book
store, say, would deal with few
publishers.
Secondly, due to closer intra-
facuHy liaison, lecturers could be
asked to submit a list of pre-
scribed texts during the first week
of lectures. The students could de-
cide whether they wanted to buy
any and leave a deposit with their
order. No overstocking would oc-
cur. An order could be placed and
presumably the texts would be in
the students' hands in four or
five weeks. Later orders would be
filled with a longer expected
delivery period.
Thirdly it would not be possible
to offer discounts "directly", as
attempts have resulted in pub-
lishers banning their publications
from sale at the bookstore. But,
in order to compensate the stu-
dent for the period of waiting, it
would be possible to establish the

solving.
Roland de Cornellle, president of
the campus United Nations Club,
stated yesterday that he has had
no further wwd from the Council
regarding the amalgamation. No
discussion with the UN Club has,
as yet. begun. Bud Trlvett, UN Club
Publicity Director, had made It
clear at the time of the E»eace
Council decision in November that
there were constitutional grounds
for a union.
De Cornellle pointed out that the
final business meeting of the year
for the UN Club will be held two
weeks from tomorrow (Thursday).
It is believed that steps toward
union will have to begin before
that meeting.
Commenting on the indecision of
the Peace Council, last year's Coun-
cil president, Don Anderson .said
he was "not surprised" by the ac-
tions of this year's executive.
"They are not interested in peace,
but only In disrupting tiie Peace
Council." he declared.
Last spring Anderson and his
executive were unseated in an un-
usual coup when Dennis Bishop
was nominated and elected to head
the new Peace Council. This hap-
pened after about sutty students,
mainly engineers, packed a nomin-
ations meeting, joined the Peace
Council and voted non-confidence
in the executive.
Since the old Council would not
recognize the new execuUve the
University Caput was called upon
to settle the constitutional dispute.
The engineer-controlled executive
as headed by Bishop was recog-
nized. At that time Bishop stated
the "new" Peace council would
continue with good meetings and
addresses by non-political speak-
ers genuinely interested in peace.
The Student's Handbook describ-
ed the new organization as "re-
formed on non-party lines". TliLs
was to distinguish it from the old,
supposedly Communist - front
Peace Council.
Within the first three months of
this school year, the "reformed"
CouncU hit on the plan of joimng
with the United Nations Club. At
a business meeting on November

was passed 25-6 alter continued op-

Monday night's Victoria College
Union meeting, besides criticizing
the organization of the SHARB
campaign, also censured the Elngin-
eering Society, deplored the state of
the men's common room and de-
cided not to hold their proposed
Caledon weekend.
The Vic At-Home will be held on
March 7, a Friday evening In Hart
House, the VCU decided.
A motion proposed "by second year
president Aleic Langford that the
"VCU condemns the arrant pre-
sumption of the Bngineering Society
for sending a letter requesting Wie
return of some missing Lady Godiva
Memorial Band Uniforms," was
unanimously passed by the assembly.
The Engineering Society charged
that "Vic did not win the recent
Convocation Hall band concert In an
honest and fair manner and that
the uniforms slicHild be returned as
per agreement".
They suggested that Vic should in
future "adopt honest engineering
methods".
The band uniforms disappeared
from Hart House on Skule Nite, and
were found, according to Ken Cork,
n Vic. in a room in North House.

An agreement had been made
with the Engineering Society that
whoever won the SHARE Band con-
test held two weeks ago would keep
the uniforms. By using a cheque
they had previously collected, Vic
won the band contest for collecting
tL? most money.
A motion was passed underlining

mon Room Committee. A report was
presented by the Chairman of the
Committee complaining of rowdyism
in the Men's Common Room. He
cited regular noon hour wrestling

ceds be used to buy new furniture.
handle separate tasks: technical,
programming and administration.
The main group of students there
(about fifteen) were interested in
the program end of the station set-
up.
■nnker spoke to the meeting first.
He stresaed the wide variety of
problems and the necessity for
separate groups to deal with th«
varied problems. Under the tech-
nical heading came such matters
as antennae, equipment, blanket
area, fringe area, and coat of tech-
nical radio materials.
Prognunmlng worries would in-
clude such details ai length ot
operation and time, source of lis-
teners, -ipeclal events, training an-
nouncers, and securing writers and
producers.
The administrative group would
have to find a source for money,
get a band on the air, and convince
the necessary authorities that a
radio station for Toronto Is not
only good but vital.
Tinker emphasized that all thesa
problems would be Interwoven and
frequent meetings between the
various committees would be neces-
sary. The students planned to meet
and give interim reports within
two weeks time.
Bruce Dunlop, I Law, who haa
come to Toronto from Queen's,
spoke at the meeting. Dunlop will
take charge of the program com-
thittec. He mentioned that Queen'a
has had a non-commercial station
for many years. Their station on
an AM-band runs as many as three
nights a week from 6:30 until mid-
night. Dunlop said tJiat he saw no
reason why Varlsty couldn't have
a similar station without too much
trouble.
After a discussion the group
agreed that the only satisfactory
station would be an AM station.
Space on the radio band could be
found near CKEY at the lower end
said Tinker. Harry Giles who has
helped out at Ryer.ion commented
that some technical equipment
could be procured from Ryersoa
when a definite plan had beea
laid out.
Ttiia is the first concrete attempi
to give Toronto University a radio
station. For many years student*
have advocated in letters to th*
editors and articles the possibilities
but not until this year was anything
done about it. The action started
this year when two students Bill
Crichton and I3oug Butt wrote to
The Vanity and continued to press
for a University station.

T. J. Geiger
fa 1533. Prof. T. J. G«lger lost hl3 Job at th«
UnlTcrslty of Brunswick. He was a damocrat and a
liberal, and In the Germany ol that time, he was
poUtlcally undeslMtole. He had two choices open
to him. He could either leave tlie country Im-
mediately, or loae his passport. In September, be
left and two weeka later the Gestapo came to his
father's home to take his passport away.
They were too late then. They had other
chances to catch Dr. Gelg«er, taut tiiey never
seemed to make it. He went to Denmark, and wai
appointed to the Infitltute of Economics and Hls-
to^ fcr five years. Then In 1938 he took over ttio
flrat Sociology chair in Scandinavia, at the oni-
rerslty of Aarhus.
Two years later the Germans came, and un-
rfeslratile" people had to leave. Dr. Geiger went to
the small town where Hans Anderson (of fairy
tale fame) was bom,; he stayed there for three
years Practically all Denmark was In the under-
ground movement, and ne^^s was carried very
quickly. One evening he learned that the Gestapo
were trying to find him. The next day he was on
hiB way to Sweden-
*The Gestapo were over-organized. One of the
lour hierarchies hi their bureaucracy' never knew
what the others did. I had renewed my passport,
and the German consulate knew w^ore I was. And
yet the Gestapo went to the old place where I
had lived— I had moved twice since then. They
came strutting In. loud and overbearing. They
had no Idea how ridiculous they looked." Dr. Gei-
ger sums It -up in this way, "I have Iwen lucky
all my li/e."
He stayed hi Sweden until the end of the war,
Bftving lectures. Then in 1945 he returned to Den-
mark. This year he is on a visiting lectureship to
ttie Sociology Department ol the University of To-
fonto,
]|«rn hi Munich, Dr. Geiger studied law and
•conomic* in Germany, graduating in 1914. Then
be became a soldier for four and one-hall years.
"It was not pleasant." he tersely comments.
He became interested In Sociology, a science
wiaoh did not exist in Germany then. "Germany
was In very bad fihi«>e, I left law and went Into
By PEAKL PARN£9
Adult Education." It was in 1M8, after 7 years
as Director of Adult Education, that Dr. Geiger
l:>ecame professor at Brunswick in Sociology.
Dr. Geiger rejects "value judgments". "There la
XM good or bad. I conform — we have to have some
standards. But it is as a member of society con-
forming to set standards rather than moralitiea
l^ie Idea (rf the good is an abstraction of the
primary evalution ctt those standards approved of
In society. There can be no absolutes.''
He iimstrates this point with many valid argu-
ments. "People fight about the standard* by which
they're going to hve In peace. And the standards
of even the same country change constantly."
Someone wUi say "I detest lying because it's
bad." But lying Isn't "bad". In Sparta children
had to learn to lie in a convincing way, as part
of the equipment of the politically active man.
m the English navy they are toM, "If you tell a
Ue, stick to it."
Talaes and standards vary as much as politics.
As far as the latter field. Dr. Geiger feels that
Denmark Is periiaps the most democratic country
in the world to-day. And one .indication of this
democracy is the freedom given to children. "I
have three small children, and it is impossible to
hold a discussion. The children terrorize the
adults."
When coffee was rationed in Denmark, there
was enough tea available. But rumours held that
because coffee, the "lower class drink" was ration-
ed, tea, the "upper class drink" came under the
iame restrictions as well. "The rumour Itself,"
chuckles 1^. Geiger, "is itself characteristic of
the atmosphere of the country."
Dr. Geiger has written over 20 books; he lost
track of the number some volumes ago. He used
to work fourteen hours a day. "Now I am 60, and
eig(ht hours is usually my limit. That's where the
rationing hit me hardest — coffee is fuel."
Following the close of the session here, Dr.
Geiger will visit social researcli centres in the
United States and Canada through a Rockefeller
grant, and will give lectures. Then he will return
to his chair in Aartius, Denmark.

5-Man Committer
To Evaluate Vic's
Class Executives
A five man committee was set up at the VCU
Monday night to evaluate the purposes and functions of
class executives. This is part of a general investigation
sidering the general coordination of activities at Vict'^
College. Formation of such a committee was suggestpi"
VCU Treasurer Bill Andrews.
Class ezecotives have failed to
submit briefs to the Financial
Committee as was requested at the
December meeting, he said. The
personal canvass for SHARE,
handled by the class executives was
not satisfactory, he continued.
All the class executives admitted
that they were imable to giva a
financial statement at this time.
Both members from 5T2. and 5T3
said tliat their finances are not
yet straightened out from the par-
ties held in the fall term.
Defending the class executives
the President of 5T3 said that class-
es do hot have periodical meetings
as do clubs. They are spread out
all over the campus he said. The
executives give a cross section of
the college, he continued and are
therefore valuable representatives
on the VCU.

panel of undergraduates and pro-
fessors discussing subjects of inter-

munity at large. Importation of
non-university experts to speak on
the panel has been one of the sug-
gested revisions.
*We have had several good sub-
jects suggested, but are still in the

'One of man's "basic longings is for

General Secretary of the Inter-
Varsity Christian Pedlowship. He
was speaking at the monthly Sunday
evening service of the Varsity
Christian Fellowship in WycUffe
College Chapel. Standards differ, yet
all are seeking peace and content-
ment in some form, he said.
Is anyone capable of meeting this
basic human desire, or must he turn
to some outside source? The natural
desire for life and the fear of death
answer this clearly. We cannot
find satisfaction In ourselves, be
continued.
Repeatedly Jesus Christ claims
that He alone Is able to solve man's
problems, giving peace and security.

Of Ice-Boating Trip
To go Ice-boating and live to tell

Last Sunday four enthusiastic
saUors set out for HamUtoa Bay.
The sailors were John Bent. I
Arch- Mike Conway, XV CivU. and
grad 'prank Galloway. The Univer-
sity Sailii^ Club has bought a new
Ice-boat there. This craft Is an at-
tractive Blue and White model
which although quite heavy is very
sturdily built.
An ice-boat looks something lllte
a racing car. It Is a long, thin.
pointed boat with skates sticking
away out on one side. At the front
there Is a single skate which acts
as a steering rudder. This rudder is
turned by a steering wheel in the
cockpit.
First the ice-boat has to be car-
ried over the slush to the edge of
the good ice. Then the sail the
battens (slats for the sail) and ^he
rigging must be assembled. FinaUy
the front skate is fastened on and
the boat Is ready to go.

Recognised as one oif the leading
sociologists in Europe, he has written
23 books on Sociology and law. Th«
first in EngUah translation wUI ap-
pear soon, and is entitled "Class
Society and the Melting Pot".
After marking essays In both
Danish and English, Dr. Geiger con-
siders that Canadian students pre-
sent a greater range from good to
bad in their marks, while European
students stay closer to average. Both
groups, Geiger feels, are equally
poor In the use of ttieir respective
native languages, though, he says,
Canadian students are comparts
tlvely worse in spelling ability.

bish effusiveness, said Miss Char-

of mall religious coDeges in a mat-

SAC Round Tabli
Finds Universities!
House Lost Souls
Canadians are not being overschooled.
The examination system will be unchanged for
time. I
DVA should be extended in some form to non-VetgJ
students.
There are too many "lost souls at Universities.
These findings eanerged from one
of the stormiest of the current
series of meetings of the Varsity
Radio Round Table, over CKEY
last night. Taldng part in the dis-
cussion were Dr. W. R. Blatz. Pro-
fessor of Psychology: John Finlay,
IV Vic; Pete Turner, II SPS, and
Fred Walden, Grad Studies.
"We haven't begun to scratch the
surface of the way In which we
can school our children and adults,"
said Dr. Blatz at the beginning of
the discussion. He held this posi-
tion in the face of arguments from
Turner who argued that aie econ-
omy ol the country could not af-
ford more schooling and FinJay
who said we spend far too much at
school now for the amount of
schooling we get out of it.
"Too many people at the Univer-
sity level don't know why they are
tJiero", said Walden. He blamed
much of this on the present em-
phasis on learning Isolated facts
in lower schools and claimed the
examination system served to per-
petuate this trend. Dr. Blatz agreed
the exam system was not the ideal
way but "it is the only /technique
we have of finding out Tvhether a
student has absorbed what he has
been taught".

Tommy Trinder and his Royal Comanand Music
Hall Varieties came here to Toronto at the request
of the Variety Club to make money for Variety
Village and to entertain. Entertainment is the
watchword and to the person uninitiated to
English "Music Hall" it is really fun. The show
is different from anything one sees here. It is
naive and adheres strictly to the formula of all
Music Hall entertainment, but the show Is very
refreshing. Even when an act is bad, there is the
obvious deaire of the "artists" to please their
audience, so that one cannot help being pleased
or at least flattered.
Monday night's aodleoioe at the Boyal Alex
seemed at least half English and they showed the
rest how to join In the fun. They caJled the people
back for more applause, asked for the songs they
Uk^ and help the Juggler juggle. Tommy Trinder
himself is a cooky little Cockney who pokes fun
at everything, including himself, and pretends to
be something of a crooner, which he isn't — at
least, not with that face. He has a lantern jaw, &
quantity of teeth and very expressive features. He
works hard at his jokes — es^iecially the very old
ones — gives the tag-line with pugnacious solemnity
and then waits for the reaction. As it comes he
starts to smile broadly and generously and then
he ducdts his head in acknowledgement. This one
mannerism makes him a most engaging per-
sonality.
Many of his jokes are cAd, but are told so
defiantly that he actually challenges t(he audience
not to laugh. In his turn, he kept up a steady
stream of jokes, jibes, and snide remarks, made
fine use of a stooge called Yussel, who looked
like the last stages of malnutrition, and he a

US Texts
Dear Here
Kinrston, (CUP)— Students at
Queen's University are paying as
niuch as ten percent above list
price for text-books published in
tlie United States, It was recently
revealed by Prof, Arthur Jackson,
Secretary of the Faculty of Science
at Queen's.
Under present exchange condi-
tions, text-books entering Canada
are subject to approximately two
percent increase in price. In ad-
dition to this some publishing
firms mark their prices up 10 per-
cent for sale in Canada over list
prices south of the border.
Fiiblishcrs claim that they must
do tJiis to finance the establish-
ment of branch -offices and agen-
cies here in Canada although most
American publishers sell their
boolts for the same price in Cali-
fornia as in the east.
Despite the shorter distance and
similar freight rates prices of the
;;ame texts are 10 percent higher
in this country.
handling of English on the part
of some university studenu.
Last week in Ottawa. Principal
W. A. Mackintosh told the Queen's
Alumni, Ottawa branch, that there
is a lamentable deficiency in
knowledge of the English language
among university students. He told
the Queen's alumni that a special
effort was being made at theii
alma mat^r to correct this situa-
tion.
He added that he was not "satis-
fied" with the present methods of
preparing high school students for
university. Queen's is not getting
a high enough proportion of top
quality students from the colegi-
ates in the large cities. Doctor
Mackintosh said.
The WOTid War n veterans
have left Queen's, Dr. Mackintosh
said. He termed the high school
graduates "uninformed and ines-
perienced." However he said that
their judgement usually gets back
on the right track.
Dr. Mackintosh felt that high
school graduates did not show an
ability to concentrate and that
they "over-organized themselves."
It is a tremendous handicap. Dr.
Mackintosh said, to have students
all coming from the same city or
province as, to a great degree, one
student educates another student.
Tayyeb Blasts Colombo Plan
Spirit Is Willing, Flesh Weak
"The Colombo plan can be a very
good thing. If it is carried out in
the spirit in which it was con-
ceived," said Mr. All Tayyeb in
an address to the International Re-
lations Club, yesterday. "But if
Us main aim Is to defeat commun-
ism, it is definitely harmful."
Himself a native of Pakistan and
student of Asian geography at the
University of Toronto. Mr. Tayyeb
told the IRC that there are some
Very serious defects in the plan as
It is being carried out.
"The whole thing has been very
poorly planned," Mr. Tayyeb
charged. "Indian students are sent
to other countries to study com-
pletely without a frame of refer-
ence. Those studying education, es-
IPecially. are given little opi>ortunit
Pecially. are given little oppor-
tunity to learn anything valuable,
he said. They spend a few hours
a week at OCE and at the parlia-
ment buildings, and at neither
place do they learn anything valu-
able.
"The Colombo Plan student too
often visits foreign countries as a
tourist at a picnic. Often the time
he is allowed is much too short,
and he returns home disillusioned,"
said Mr. Tayyeb.
M&ny of the original parts of the
Plan have not been carried out, he.
said. There have been no technical
advances within India itself, so that
the student is liable to return home
and find no opportunity for actu-
ally using his new technical knowl-
edge. There have been no at-
tempts to bring foreign experts
perts into India to give demon-
strations.
Moreover, if the nations wbo
are supporting tbe plan are not
sincerely interested In helping tbe
people of Asia, but merely in de-
feating Communism, the plan will
not be successful, he said. The
difference in objectives will mean
that the money will not be used
carefully and effectively.
"In any case, the Colombo Plan
is not a cure-all," Mr. Tayyeb re-
mhided the group. "It was created
to fill a definite need, but it is
being carried out as a practical
plan simply because certain na-
tions have made commitments,
and want to get them over with.
But even if all goes well witb the
plan It is not adequate to raise
the living standard of the coun-
tries involved. It is just a drop in
the bucket, although better than
nothing."
The Colombo plan calls for a
capital development program In
the Commonwealth countries of
South East Asia totalling about $5
billions over a six-year period
two billion of which Is to be raised
internally, by contributions from
the other commonwealth countries.
This money was originally planned
to be used to gi^'e Asian students
technical training in other coun-
tries, and for. technical develop-
ments within India.

The Rules Committee for the Interconegiate football
league met at the end of last month to make proposals to
the general meeting of the CIAU next month, and as usual
accomplished nothing. It was the same old story, a group of
delegates representing the "old guard", the let s-keep-the-
game-the-way-iWs (as was) men, setting out to make rules
proposals for the colleges, whose coaches for the most part
favour the making of several changes.
The McGiU delegate proposed the raising of the present
Emit of 24 players dressing for each game, a move which
all but two or three of Canada's pro and college coaches
have been urging for a couple of years now^The proposal
ipas turned down. ' '*'*'»
A move to restrict substitution, to prevent more than
three players coming into a game at one time, was also
■uggested. This also failed to pass.
Though there was little support in college football for
eie latter change, the voting down of the former was a bit
Of a surprise to some. Queen's is the only college whose
eoach and athletic directM-ate are known to be against rais-
ing the player limit, probably because of the financial situ-
ation down there. Bob Masterson here at Toronto 13 strongly
fa favour, and Obeck, who is both coach and athletic director
Itt McGill. apparently instructed his delegate to propose it
Toronto's delegate was Bob Coulter, who played for the
Blues in the thirties, and coached them from '45 till 47,
when Masterson was sort of eased in and Coulter sort of
•ased out.
Coulter has been the Toronto delegate for the past two
er three years. Masterson says he has given up trying to get
Coulter to make changes, and that he knows practically
nothing about what goes on in the meetings, except what
lie reads in the reports issued some time afterward.
1 It seems to us that if anyone is going to change the
rules, it should be the men most directly involved. Either
the coaches should be able to take part in the meeting, or
at least be able to send proposals to be considered. We have
euggested previously in this space that proposals be accept-
lid from the players or a players' committee, but it will be a
long time before the league gets that democratic

Ottawa Rough Riders reached into the Queen City lagt
week to grab Varsity's bone-crushing line-backer Bob Gar-
side right out of Argos' hands. Garside, who graduates this
year after having a sensational final season, was just about
•et to don the double blue next season. However, Ottawa
■tepped in and offered a little more money and a better job,
»o . . . Argos will have to find a line-backer somewhere else.
The same thing happened two years ago when Bruce
Cummings graduated. Argoa bargained with him, then Ot-
tawa came across with a good job and a fair stipend besides,
and signed him. Argos, with the biggest stadium in the
country at their disposal are the wealthiest of the pro clubs,
but having the players in their own back yard they seem to
think they can get them cheaper.
Al Brown is also looking the field over considering
Bcveral offers. With Brown, as with Garside, the job involv-
•d is The first consideration and the football salary second.
Marsh Haraes, who is going to Osgoode next year, will
probably pJay for Argos since he will be in Toronto anyway

Risque Cariaan
priwugs Criticism
THE VARSITY
jCingston, (CUP)— As a result of
. special Arts Faculty edition, The
aueen's Journal is receiving letters
j-andemning it, among ottier things,
for prLnting material which wouia
jiflve made "the old Police Gazette
jind Calgary Eyeopener — which
^ere noted for their putrid articles
. blush."
The items concerned include a
cartoon ol a woman of obvious ill-
ygpute asking a Queen's co-ed,
"Don't you find it a crasMng bore
(0 be a virgin?"
The other article which has
brought forth complaints was a
coinoientary on Queen's men and
•ft-omen, which suggested that
"Queensmen would be ail right if
tliey didn't think more of their
(jeer than their women; import; talk
too much about iwrses."
The article also suggests that if
Queensmen want: (a) a mother,
they go home; (b) a prostitute,
they go to Montreal.
In the next column, In what ap-
pears to be a male reply, the paper
suggests Queen's girls would be all
right il only; "they gave a man
the same kick as does beer; they
didn't act like the ratio was what
It really is; they didn't act like
-they'd never tasted beer before."
Finally, the Journal suggests why
Beer is Better'n Women. The rea-
sons given are: you can buy It for
less than a woman; beer is always
dependable — does what it claims to
do; bottles of beer do not get preg-
DLint; beer can be shared with your
■ friends; you can throw away the
bottle when it's empty.
TtLe articles were part of a spec-
ial edition of the Journal put out
by members of the Arts Faculty,
and not by the regular staff. Like
some other Canadian universities,
the Jonrnal has special issues
throughout the year which are put
out by the individual faculties.
Complaints came from present
students and from a graduate of
1922, who asked that "the moron"

The prehistorics of the Indus
river valley cities -carried sanitation
to a morbid extreme", said Dr
Wheeler, London University Archae-
olo^ professor, to a large audience
m the Museum Theatre,
Lecturing on the recent archae-
ological finds at Mohenjo-Daro and
Harappa on the Indus river in North
West India, Dr. Wheeler showed
slides of buildings constructed over
4,000 years ago.
"There were far more drains In
the cities of the Indus valley than
, In the whole of medieval or modem
India", Wheeler commented. Above
the drainage in the houses "com-
fortable little seats of a very modem
type" were found, he added.
The climate of the region must
have been vea^ different 4,000 years
ago, said Wheeler. This is evidenced
by the discovery of "carefully baked
bricks" used to withstand dampness,
while In Ur, a comparable civiliza-
ti-.i, mud bricks were used, he said.
Wheeler showed pictures of solid
brick towers and parapets on which
he found elliptical missiles of clay,
"quite a useful mlssle when properly
used".
A large granary, of grid-like con-
struction and kept dry by complex
systems of air ducts, "was the focus
of Mohenjo-Daro's economic life",
said Dr. Wheeler. Like a state bank
of today, the granary's condition re-
flected the degree of solvency of the
city, he added.
Wheeler showed two pictures of
mortars, used in milling grain. One
was uneartlied in the ancient city
sites, and the other, a similar one, is
used today in nearby Kashmir.
"The arts and crafts of Uie Indus
are disappointing when compared
with those of the western civiliza-
tions," Wheeler said. Showing pic-
tures of terra - cotta figxirines,
Wheeler described them as the most
skillfully executed of the arts.
Tiny, inch-squaxe seals of clay
were also shown and were called
"most remarkable" by Dr. Wlieeler.
Tliey contained a "semi-picto-
graphic" style of writing. Comment-
ing on the script. Wheeler said, "We
can say a lot about it except what
It means."
A figurine believed to be the
Hindu god, Siva, was discovered on
one of those seals. Dr. Wheeler tu-
dlcated that because of Wils and
similar finds, it is now believed that
the Indus civilization "may have had
- very consldertible effect on later
etal remains of citizens sprawled In
the streets and on staUivays. He told
of finding these skeletons with
broken skulls which indicated that
they have lain there since the
Aryans slaughtered them In about
1500 B.C.
The discovery of public baths,
large granaries, organized streets,
massive brick fortifications, complex
sewage systems, and artistics Indi-
cations of a reUgion similar to that
of contenmorary India, are signifi-
cant to the understanding of the
prehistoric India civilization. Wheel-
er said.
Dr. Wheeler was fomi^ly Direct-
, or of Indian Archaeology and more
recently Director of Pakistani Ar-
chaeology. He is cunently Professor
of British Archaeology at the Uni-
versity of London. England, and Is

Censorship
Ended Now
Cambridge, Miss — (CUP)
RadcUffe's stringent control over
college news and Ihdividual pub-
licity ended recently, president
Jordan announced that srudent
correspondents would no longer
have to clear sttHles through tha
Publicity Office. Nor would it be
necessary for atude.nts to get the
permission of the News Office to
grant outside interviews and pos»
for pictures .
A special committee was ap-
pointed by Jordan to draw up the
new regulattons. Students may
«tm obtain material from the Pub-
licity Offlce. but need not sut>m»
articles for approval. The prafr
tice of having students serve as
representatives of newspapers will
be continued "because of its po-
tential value to the college as a
medium of publicity and to stu-
dents as tnOnlng in Journalism. "
Students are now free to secura
their own appointments as news-
paper representatives, but the pub-
licity director will continue to a»-
slst those who have not got spe-
cific positions. (Formerly all rep-
resentatives were appointed bv tho
publicity director.)
The problem of press-board ad-
ministration relations cajne to a
head a year ago. One of the stu-
dents. Bureau Chief of the Collega
newspaper, was threatened with
disciplinary action for writing a
story "not in the best interests ol
the College." Under threat of ex-
pulsion she was forced to resign
from the newspaper staff.

CEeaning Out Garbage
The Problem
Not very long from now an old alley
eat in the guise ot the Students' Council
Is going to start poking Into various of
Jts activities. The time for re-appralsal is
here. One activity that it is going to
pcrfte through most carefully is what has
been termed "the campus' biggest garbage
can" — the External Affairs Committee.
With a little intensive sifting and
■ miffing the old cat will try to decide
Whether what aw>ears to be a rather
battered and beat-up old can on the out-
aide, has enough healthy contents to b«
net up on a permanent basis.
Set up last spring by the SAC on a
irear's trial, the BAC was meant to com-
bine and co-ordinate the activities of the
international Student Service and the
National Federation of Canadian Unlver-
alty Students committees on the campus,
tlie future of the international and na-
tional work of Toronto will depend on
the decision taken.
Both organiaations work for the Inter-
ests of the whole student body. They often
represent the student body issues causing
a good deal of overlapping. To eliminate
IhlF, to give them a more representative
•haracter and make their work more ef-
fective, were some of the factors put for-
ward in support of the idea. At the same
time the new committee would be re-
Bponsitole to tbe CouocU for Its actions
and have official SAO backing, with one
of ft^; members appointed as chairman,
The plan was approved. But EAC waa
given no budget, no constitution, no pro-
grlun of action, or organization. It had to
make its own way. And when the cur-
rent season started all the students who
had pushed the amalgamation had
graduated and couM not help to put
their ideas Into practice. It was a tough

Affairs Committee, garbage can or no.
was one of the most progressive steps
taken by the Council this year. And we
want to see It continued. If it can learn
from its presMit mistakes and growing
pains, the EAC should become all the
stronger and more effective next year.
IPor ISS and NIPC?US, through EAO.
have a character that I3 both broad and
challenging. And this character has been
fairly well brought out. The two or-
ganizations encompass a sense of unity
and co-operation with all sorts of stu-
dents. And certainly some of the biggest
controversies and problems of the year
have been stirred up through BAC.
Howei/er, an organization is only as
affective as the people in it. For BAO
this is particularly true. With a scope so
broad, the most important thing the
BIAC must have is an extraordinarily
Btrong and capable leader. He must be
able to compfomise opposing points of
View. Hie EAO needs a cousutution to
been able, with some measure of success,
to co-ordinate the activities of the two
and give them a fair degree of recogni-
tion on the campus. In fact. EAC quickly
assumed a prominence second only to
that of the SAC itself.
But the "garbage can" analogy crept in
as EAC started to sag as all manner of
issues and jobs was dumped into its
lap. It soon proved it was simply incap-
able of handling them adequately. There
were the Russians, the Austrians,
SHARE, demands for lower fees, interna-
tional affairs of NPCUS and all the
regular things tooth committees handled
In the past.
As a result the people in charge of EAC
grew acutely aware of the inadequacies
of the committee and jts inability to
handle such complex problems. Embar-
rassfnent and confusion were the natural
result, before HAC had even become ac-
customed to the alleys It had to work in.
As a result many a memlier wished
that he bad never heard of BAC at all.
The Council Itself was continually per-
plexed and staggered by the massive de-
tailed reports which it was eicpected to
know about and sanction. The HAC chair-
man even asked that some of the motions
passed at his meetings be stymied in
short order.
The EAC meetings themselves were
often long dra(wn-out affairs. The major
time was given over to issues that were
nearly impossible to be resolved and the
reports of the r^ular suftj-committees got
lost in the shuffle. Part of the blame for
this can be laid, of course, on too obvi-
ously uninformed members.
Wifh aU this it is not hard to become
suspicious about the value and com-
petence of the committee. And certainly
there is some feeling that, if nothing
else, the old system had fewer headaches
Particularly was this felt during the con-
troversy over the Russian visits
establish the limits of its responsibUlties,
to prevent a recurrence of the garbage
can addendum.
Also needed, to prevent more embar-
rassing motions. Ls a ruling that only
the elected representatives be permitted
to make motions. Finally an honourary
chairman is needed to allow the EAC
chairman to take the leading role in dis-
cussion he should have. This has been
impossible under the present setup. These
arc a few of the most striking require-
ments.
Re-allocating ISS and NliX3US to their
former hidependent status would mean
only reducing them to utter poverty as
far as effectivtness is concerned and
perhaps even to oblivion.
With the experience of the past year
to look back on, it would seem that
NFCUS and iSS, under the EAC banner
have waxed green In the glory of official
sunlight.
Massey Report
Although most of the furor over the Massey Report has
pretty well spent itself, we are reprinting here an extract
from a talk by Arthur Phelps, Professor of English at Mc-
Gill University, that he gave recently over the BBC. Pro.
fcssor Phelps analyzes the growing nationalism and the
desire for earnest self-appraisal in Canada from which the
incentive for the Massey Commission stemmed.

K Is a fact bhat the Massey Report —
M it is coming to be'called — Is a shock-
ing document. If it gets into the con-
sciousness of the Canadian people it will
be a shock to the nation similar to that
for the individual when, by virtue ot
some crisis in his development, he sees
himself as for the first time and wonders
what he really Is.
The report strikes vigorously and deeply
right in behind the facade of our com-
mercial and political expansion and ma-
terial achievement. In effect, it asks
what sort of resources In aesthetic, moral
•nd Intellectual and .spiritual vigor have
*ur leaders behind them as they speak,
for Canada in the 'business and political
■ounsels of the world? It asks what sort
of spiritual climatic environment have all
these young Canadians of ours about them
as they grow up in a land they call in-
creasingly their own. their native land.
Why did the Report come Into being?
It came Into being because the country
wanted it. Canada was ready for what
might be called a cultural stock-taking.
If it be true, as it is true, that the soberly
analyzed findings of the Commission ot
sciences in Canada demonstrate serious
shortcomings in the range and nature of
Canadian interests, it Is also true that
the country was in a mopd to be told
the facts and to treat them seriously.
For the past 30 years there has been
in Canada a continuous, conscious, and
sometimes deliberately engineered weak-
ening of Canada's ties with Creat Britain.
By some, it was called getting rid of
colonialism; by others spiritual disaster.
But the process went on. Canada sought
and Eoimd a new sort of independence.
Within the last ten years realization
has become widespread that independence
of Britain might only mean but another
form of dependence, a progressive ab-
sorption without ctiecks into the way of
life of the United States. American in-
stead of British Investment in developing
natural resources and business enter-
prises, co-operative occupation by Ameri-
can troops, the pervasive, continuous in-
terpenetration of Canadian life by Ameri-
can advertising _ all this made many
Canadians think Canada was losing not
only her independence but her identity.
A wave of feeling which has swept the
country during recent months has not
been, m essence, .so much antl-Amerlcan-
ism as pro-Canadianism. When Mr Pear-
son in AprU, 1951, said in a Toronto
speech that Canada must not be a mere
echo of the United States, a vast amen
went up from the whole country.
This feeling was nourished from all
sorts ot sources. During the last ten
years. Canadian high school and univer-
sity teachers have sought for relatively
more text books in economics, sociology
politics, philosphy, and literature edited'
U not written, by Canadians.
toere has been a stirring in the mul-
^rry trees here in Canada. The Massey
Report lias simply drawn into sharp
hllf.„^ " projection of the people's
half-conscious need and will.
In the introduction to the Chapters in
;h.^i ^ Report, the commission
shows both Its sense ot the breadth of the
mandate under which It worked, and its
knowledge of the tact that what ar«

Our Readers Write
Editor, Tile Varsity:
According to the first SHAKE finan-

drawn its donation (and vote) to the

it publicized that outside of these clieclu,
the VCU Collection per capita for SHABB
amounted to $0.00167.
The presentation of the "Treble

money was delayed because of the doubt-
ful legality (as votes) of these large
checks, included in donations received
after the SGLIRPB played. Thei-efore
since the VCU, having no extraordinary

as they seem to have tried, the LGMB
is the rightful and honest winner having

The future of intercollegiate de-

Uie SAC finally decided to

Hanley said that It was impos-
sible to cut out the United States
debating tours and that any cuts
would have to be in the lUDL de-
bates.
The council decided to have the
finance committee reconsider the
UTDU budget and defeated an
amendment by Trivett that the
committee should consider spend-
ing only a further $100.00.
During the debate, Trivett stress-
ed the need for economy in the de-
bate tours. "They should be able
to travel in upper berths", he sug-
gested, "instead of bedrooms. If
the debaters themselves are will-
ii^ to economize, we could prob-
ably save $50 there alone", he add-
ed.
Warden Stresses Need
Of Active Participation
By DENISE KICHARDS
Nominations open Monday for the Hart House
Elections. Seventy-one posts are open to under-
graduale members of the House on the various
ccmmittees.
Warden Ignatieff stressed the importance of
active student interest in these elections The
Idea that Hart House runs by itself, or on its ad-
ministration, is completely false he said. He ex-
plained that the majority of committee members
are students, and thus Hart House administra-
tion Is an experiment in student, faculty, and staff
relationships.
There is a need for creativeness on these com-
mittee*, the Warden said, for they provide a scope
for doing things, and carrying out ideas, not just
for talk.
Hart House was orflclally opened in 1919. Since
then there haa grown up what has been describ-
ed as the "Hart House idea." An article in The
Varsity of 1946 explained this Idea as follows:
"First, a House devoted to student Ufe should
be efficiently managed and make full provision
for the material needs and social activities of its
members, and secondly, without being 'high-brow'
or educative, it must stand pre-eminently for the
cultivation of the arts, more especially of paint-
ing, music, books, and the drama, for the encour-
agement of the undergraduate's interest hi pub-
lic affairs, through the medium of speakers and
debates, for the wise presentatinn of Christianity,
for the introduction of a certain dimity and
courtesy Into daily intercourse, and for the for-
mation of lasting friendships."
FVom the earliest days of Hart House, Its acti-
vities have been administered by committees con-
sisting of senior and undergraduate members. The
senior members (faculty and graduate members),
numbering not more than two or three on each
committee, are chosen for their interest in the
particular affairs of that committee, and are ap-
pointed to serve by the Board of Stewards.
The undergraduates, who are in a large ma-
jority on every committee, are elected annually by
the under^aduate members of Hart House, ex-
cept that in order to provide continuity, two
undergraduates in the larger committees (i.e..
House, Library, Music. Art, Debates, and Glee
Club) and one undergraduate in the smaller com-
mittees (i.e., Camera, Squash Racquets, and
Chess) are elected to serve for* the following year
by the out-going committee. The Warden is Vice
Chairman of all committees, except in the case of
the Board of Stewards, of which he is' ex-officio
Chairman.
Every undergraduate member of Hart House
is eligible to vote, and is urged to do so. in the
election of members for the House. Library, Music,
Art. Debates, and Squash Racquets Committees.
In the case of the Camera. Glee. Amateur Radio,
Chess, and Table Tennis Club Cjinmittees, voting
is restricted to members of each club.
All undefffTaduat* members of the House an
ehgible to stand for election to the committee of
their choice, except those who are graduating (for
obvious reasons). There are no quaUflcations for
candidature other than an interest in the duties
of the particular committee chosen, and a readi-
ness to give thne to its affairs, with the exception
or the Debates Committee, where a candidate must
have spoken twice from the floor of the House
during a Hart House debate this year or three
tunes in the past two years, and the Squash
Racquets Committee, where a candidate must cer-
tiry that he has played squash at least six times
duriiig this year and has had his name on tha
ranking lists at least three weeks before the date

The "tremendous human Inter-
est" in the backgrounds of most
ot the artists exhibiting in the New
Canadian Artists' Show in Hart
House adds to the interest of their
paintings, said Clare Bice yester-
day Bice who spoke on the sur-
rent show in the Art Gallery, is
the Curator of the London Art Gal-
lery, and conceived and arranged
the show. .
Bice said that the artists had
not been questioned about their
backgrounds, and were asked only
their age and place of bu-th, but
that much fascinating Information
had been uncovered Indirectly,
One artist. In a brief note on
the back of a canvas entitled I
Was Deported to Siberia," explam-
ed that he had escaped from Si-
beria through Nazi Gemiany to
Sweden, and had sailed to Canada
in a small fishing boat The Caiia-
dlan government had permitted
him to stay. ,
A 76-year-oId woman, who speci-
fied that she was ITrom "Old Rus-
s a/' is now living hi a small town
In northern Quebec, where the
express oitic* had never heard of
London, Ontario. She was I'»rt C"-
larlv happy that one of her palnt-
ncurrcd by her

Intriguing
SnS^if^r^ng-h^to^Canad.
Other artisU
with
backgrounds, said Bice, include
pre-world war II Czech oslovakian
ambassador, a 17-year-oId Chinese
boy now living In Medicine Hat,
and a Grand Duchess, sister of the
last Czar of Russia.
A sm^U exhibit of the works of
four New Canadians in London
last year gave Bice the idea of
having a Dominion-wide show for
New Canadians, when he discov-
ered tliat quite a few good painters
had come to Canada since the war.
He said that it had been impo-vslble
to contact all of the possible con-
tributors, but that co-operation
from the Department of Citizen-
ship and Emigration, and a wide
spread publicity campaign, had
brought out 300 entries. 106 of
chese are in the present sliow, and
of them. 57 have been selected for
a travelling show.
The New Canadian artists still
have to adjust to Canada, and what
other Canadian artists have said,
before they can have anything
original to say about Canada. Bice
commented. He added that the
most interesting works in the show
were on European subjects with
which the artists were familiar.
Curiously few of the entries were
based on harrowing wartime ex-
periences. Bice said. He explained
that some pictures ot this type,
whose artistic quality did not seem
to Justify subjecting the public to
such experiences, had been rejected
by the judges. The panel of judges
consisted of two artists, and two
Canadians with European back
grounds.
Bice said that the New Canadian
artists were hampered in many
cases by lack of money and the
necessity of earning a living In
other fields, and by the fact that
they still have to make their names
known to Canadian buyers. He
said that he hoped that this show
would help them feel that they
are achieving some recognition in
the artistic field in Canada, and
that it would show Canadians that
these new citizens had a contribu-
tion to make to Canadian cultural
life.
Bice was in on the fotindin;^ of
the London Public Llbrar>- and Art
Gallery in 1940, which has become
a community art centre, and has
been Its curator ever since.
The .Vew Canadian .Artists' Show
Is now In its second week In Hart
House. It will be on display until
Sunday, and will he open to the
general public Saturday and Sun-
day afternoons from 2 p.m. to 5
p.m. A related show on the "Mod-
ern Movements in 20th Century
Painting" is on display in the Print
Room.
Won Contest
Keeping Loot

"Victoria College will certainly
resist any attempts on the part of
the Engineering Society to get back
the prizes from the SHARE band
contest." Vic Publicity Director
Ed File announced today. '"We won
the contest and we're keeping thfl
loot."
Skule, in m letter to the Varsity,
yesterday, demanded the return of
the Treble Trophy, symbol of band
supremacy, on the grounds that
Vic didn't win at all.
The Treble Troph.v was to b«
awarded to the band collecting the
most money at the contest, held
on January 23. The Victoria Col-

The tezm primate 1e used to classify tiie hi^est order ot imuninftls,
..which InclQdes lemurs, monkeys, apes and men. There to great Tariet?
In appearanoe and habits among the several menher-trtbes of the
family, bnt all hare certain characteristics In comcoon.
Most primates cs>dmarily produce only one offspring at a time.
Jt ia bom in a state of ooeniplrtc helplessness, and requires parental
•tt«itk)n tor a longer period than do most mammals. This Is particu-
larly true of men.
Primates are either yegetariaii or else live on a mixed vegetable
mnd meat diet. None are exclusively carnivorous. All, except certain
^pes of man, have a oonsplcoioiis ooatlng of hair or fur. The anterior
extremities differ from those of other mammals In structural adapta-
tion to other uses than tJiose of locomotion. Most primate (again with
•le exception of one kind erf man) walk with their heels touching the
ground . .
The prcKnoe of certain useful accessories, such as maii%)uiatai)le
creat toes and a tail, often indicates tree-climbing efficiency on the
Ijart of the owner. Although fre<iuently associated with primates, tJiese
wsets are optional.
The largest and generally most Intelligent of prlmateB belong to
ttie classes SUnildae and Hominldae, which cover Gibbons. Orang-
■tans (or Is it Orangs-utan?). Cliimpanzees. men. and eorlllas. These
all walk erect or semi-erect, and lack tails and cheek pouches. ITiey
are often very IntelUgent. and show marked individuality of character.
Chimpanzees In particular are surprisingly ingenious at solving
liroblems of environment through mechanical skifl and imitative ability.
They have frequently been seen resorting to fairly eompHcated
manoeuvres, like building towers of boxes or telescoping several sections
«< bamboo, in order to obtain lood placed out of reach.
Mr*. Ladygin-Kobts of Moscow proved, by long ex5>erimentation
With her chimpanzee loni, that the anhnal could be trained to match
two dbjects having some quality In common, that he could distinguish
«olors, that he had not Inconsiderable powers of dlscriminatton, and
auite a good memory as to means of solving a prtddem.
Many ecienUst a*iee that the behavior of the great ape* IrequenUy

Hoycle, cnoklng, or waiting on table has l>e«i an^ly demonstrated in
*^^idM showing superior qualitiee of intclUgenoe and alertness,
ttie anthropoid apes can demonstrate, by action and facial expression,
Taried emoUons — affection, sadness, amusement, excitement, anger,
lUalike, and sympathy. Although many primates can make a ^-lety
«tf sounds, K appears that only man has developed a ^tematlc code or
**^*^e veater primates are generally monogamous, again with the

May Have FM Station
Though Less To Hear
TThere are no openings on on
AM band lor a station such as
proposed by the student planning
committee at Toronto University,"
s^d Sam Ellis, Radio Inspector
for Ontario. The only possibility,
according to Ellis for Varsity to
operate an FM station similar to
Ryerson Institute of Technology's
station. The PM station would op-
erate on a higher frequency and
thus would have less listeners be-
cause tiere are only 35.000 FM
^rtatlons In the Toronto area.
Despite the statement the stu-
dent committee will continue their
investigations. Jack Tinker I Law.
head of the students' committee
said We understood that the Cana-
dian government is interested in
advancing culture, he added. It
seems unusual that they would
only allow commercial stations on
an AM band. The AM band in-
cludes the normal broadcasting
range covered by a regular radio
set.
Tinker said later, "We intend to
investigate the whole situation and
Makes Sleepy
Proust Difficult
m Palatable'
Proust Is not always palata-
ble"* and Is often "conducive to
sleep", said Professor J. S.
Wood lecturing yesterday after-
noon before an audience of al}out
140 in Victoria College Alumni
Hall. Prof. Wood, chairman of
the French Dept. at Victoria spoke
Marcel Proust in the second
in a series of public lectures on
twentieth century novelists. The
lectures are sponsored by the Vic-
toria College Council.
Prof. Wood limited his remarks
to Proust's one great work "A
la recherche du temps perdue",
which he translated as "In Search
of lioet Time." Proust wanted
to "re-create the past", said Wood.
"Remorse for a wasted life made
him start to write", he said.
Prof. Wood read selections to
illustrate Proust's ability to seize
upon the peculiarities ot certain
groups. "A sentence of Proust
can be two words or two pages in
length", he said "He observes
and depicts his characters in rela-
tion to time" said Wood continuing
that Proust makes his characters
develop and not remain static.
Proust was 'first to break with
nineteenth century novel style"
said Prof. Wood. He continued that
Virgina Woolf was the English
novelist most closely resembling
him.
Next lecture In the series will be
Wed.. Feb. 20, at 5.00 p.m. at
Vic. when Professor R. K. Arnold
will talk on Thomas Mann.

sity. This or course includes any
alternatives to a broadcast band
station should that not prove feas-
ible." When the possibility of a
directional station which only
broadcasts in certain specified di-
reotions was mentioned. Tinker
commented that they didn't intend
to broadcast to anyone but the
students who live In the city.
The intention of the committee
is to have students run the station
with the faculty participating in
the broadcasts , said Tinker at
Tuesday's meeting. Senior facul-
ty members on the University
were not available for comment
on this.
Principal Jeanneret of Unlver-
Eity College said, "I do feel
that the University should have a
broadcast station whether or not
it Is operated by students. There
ia no reason why it shouldn't be a
success if other Universities have
done it. However. I feel that the
financial side should be investigat-
ed first."
Tinker felt that the finances
were but a minor problem. He
said that if all the other problems
could be solved the finances could
be obtained.
Location for the station also
came under discussion,

agreed that it should be <

The case of the K»ffoc«ting Bpon«:c:
Dr. Chasney, a qualified sur-
geon of long-standing removed tbe
tonsils and adenoids of a five-year-
cld child in a routine operation.
A tew hours later the child stopped
breathing. The nurse cm duty
reached in to the child's throat
and removed a sponge which had
been left there accldently during
the operation. ArUflcial respira-
tion was applied but the child died.
The father sued the doctor claim-
Jng the surgeon was negligent. It
■was shown that the hospital had
Bponges with tapes available mak-
ing an error virtually impossible.
They would also supply a nurse
to supply the sponges. Dr. Chas-
ney used neither of these meth-
«ds The other city hospital did
use spongoe with tapes.
Dr. Chesney testified to the er-
lect that he had performed 200
similar operations without mis-
hap and that he had made a thor-
ough search with his fingers wid
forceps after the operation. It
was accepted that the sponges are
difficult to find when soaked with
blood. Dr. Traynor, head of tbe
Manitoba Hospital Association,
gave evidence showing that Dr.
Chasney 's technique was tee one
in general practice. It was not
customary to use sponges with
tapes or practical to make sponge
counts. He sLated a search was
the usual check made.
Would yoa give the father dam-
ages for the death of his child?

Jupiter management when the play opens next week "P'"'""
Sinclair has attempted to set the
Dialogues of Plato on stage in a
realistic situation that presents the
essence of Socrates in his last two
days on earth. The particular Dia-
logues from which Sinclair has
stolen his material are The Re-
public, The Symposium, Crito, and
The Apology.
The play itself covers almost two
whole days, beginning with the
morning when Socrates is declared
to be the wisest man in tiie world
by the Delphic Oracle and ending
in the prison where the philosopher
drinks the hemlock in the final
fulfillment of his life of teaching.
Socrates is at this time very old,
very ugly, and extremely humble.
His disciples are for the most part
young vigorous aristocrats who see
the corruption of the world and
of Athens and want to change the
old order of things. They are the
cause of fear in the magistrates of
the city, who foolishly blame So-
crates who is the source of this
criticism.
He on the other hand is inter-
ested only in the True and the
Good which to him are very real
things that make up the essence
of his life. Both in the feast scene
where the talk is about Love, and
in the trial scene where the talk
is about God, Socrates shows tWa-
closeness to these values as living
ideals. In both scenes -le shows
up the other -people wnose talk Is
comparatively superficial.
The famous Image of the c»ve,
that everyone who ever studied
philosophy knows so well, figures
m the text of the play too, when
Socrates meets the soldiers sent to
arrest, him. They talk about tJie
old philosopher whom the soldiers
do not know by sight. In this one
scene Smclair has in one sense
overstepped the bounds of the play
but his rendering of the famous
image is done in a masterly fa^^h-
ion.
Jupiter's production is being di-
rected by Esse W. Lhungh the
CBC director who directed a radio
version of the play. In this first
staging Lhungh has decided to
make use of a fore-stage in the
too-small Museum Theatre and to
make the production a.i big and
as imaginative as possible, m the
lightmg and the staging
Featured in the cast is Frank

continent's leading harpsichord-

The Electrician
The electrician in a theatre is so Important a position In the back-
stage crew that his job is usually relegated to a member of a union,
but there are those who would like to know about lighting for no
particular reason except they are afraid of the dark with elaboration*.
They are the kind of people who have no interest in theatre but ar«
moved rather to produce pretty colours for the sake of the colours.
Those cm the campus would do well to follow the example of the
Hart House Electrician who being a full fledged union man doesnt
care about colours or even lighting, but in doing his job when he !•
asked or told. '•Dim" William Neen is at the fore-front of his profession
due almost entirely to his self-effacing attitude to his work. Rumour
has it that his nicknaroe was given him because of his devotion t«
duty. Once when told to dim the lights he dimmed himself througii
sheer will-power and could not return to his original brilliance. Oi
course there are other reasons put forward as to the source of thii
particular nickname. Others just blame it on his lack of colour, which
is due in turn to his prefprence for electric light over daylig-ht. Rules:
(1) Electricians have a reputation lor being disreputable and loose,
and then sleeping it off on the job. Live up to this.
i2) When m doubt, one must accept the responsibility — t&ke a bU
of a shock. What's a few hundred volts?

City. However, home ice has
played an Important part in the
outcome of most games this sea-
son, and consequently it is like-
ly that the Blues will provide
ouich stlffer opposition on Toronto
Ice.
Any way yon \oc^ at It, this week
Is crucial for both teams — eith-
er one particularly has to take
both games in order to catch the
front running Carabins. A split
would all but eliminate both teams.
It should be an Interesting week-
end with the second place position
in the league at stake.

to win. Every man on both teams

There were five preliminary
matches fought in the senior In-
tramural wrestling championships
yesterday. All the twuts were In
the 1&7 and 167 pound weights be-
cause these are the most entries
in these classes. The first round
bouts will continue tomorrow noon
and tomorrow night with the
finals at the athletic night.
Best match of Uie evening was
the one between Vic Pitkanen of
Vic and Hiekki Auwinen of UC.
Pitkanen was beliind 5-4 at the
end of the match but he tied IL up
In time advantage. In the over-
time round he got the takedown
and managed to hang on for the
two minutes. Auwinen was the
favourite as the Vic boy had gone
up in weight.
Danny Cucln PHE dropped Prank
Manuel of Meds in 48 second:
Cucin pulled a snap takedown and
pressed for the fall. In the other
157 pound bout Jack Taylor SPS
also above his weight lost a fall
to Pete Nichols PHE hi 4.12, Tay
lor was also above hLs weight class
and kept the score even until
Nichols' weight told the tale.
There were two 167 pound con-
tests. In the opener. Pete Beatty.
Vic, dropped Bob Watson, Meds.
Beatty got the takedown in the
first round. He quickly reversed
in the second and after one near
fall pinned Watson.
In the second bout Glen Mc-
Cormick took only twenty seconds
in the second round to pm Ronan
Cheops Forestry. McCormick hung
on top in the first, reversed and
I pinned In the second.
Murray Gazluk leading; off with the
Eric Kofmel following with the
440, Mai Crawford next, running
three-quarters of a mile, and Char-
lie Wortman finishing with the
mile.
The relay will be the main thing
the team, will be concentrating on,
since the com;petition in individual
events makes entry in them pretty
hopeless. Gaziuk may enter the 600
as well as the relay, and Wortman
will probably try the twonmile
again.
Other teama competing will be
Michigan (last year's winners) ,
Michigan State, Notre Dame, Illi-
nois, nidlana. Iowa, Purdue, Ohio
State. Wisconsin, Northwestern.
Michigan Normal, Bowling Green,
Baldwin - Wallace, and possibly
others.
The team going to Buffalo will
consist of Doug Wilson. Jack War-
ga. George Webster, George Mc-
MuUen, and possihly Clint Husband

and probably other events as well.

Class Education
And Critical Thinkurn
Shirley Endicott. fourth year Sociology student at Victoria,
comments on University education and society. She is Chair-
man of the University of Toronto Labour Progress Club.
tocn by Hugh Nibtock,
♦
The current discussion on the crisis in educa-
tion has overlooked a vital factor — the society In
which we live with its conflicting values and
pressures. These conflicting pressures lead tb
cynicism and apathy on the part of the students.
Thus on one hand, education is held up as the
road to individual advancement. "Education is
beginning to count more and more. I don't thinic
you can be successful without it," is a common
thought. Only by a university education can one
get the well-paid, high status positions of doctors,
managers, or lawyers.
Why then should pet^Ie with well-paid and
high status positions such as Sidney Smith be
annoyed when students want to get practical edu-
cation and shy away from the non-lucrative hu-
manities courses. Even President Smith himself
thinks "getting ahead" is important, for in his
report he gave advice to young graduates on how
to get more money.
Then, on the other hand, we are told that
we have a responsibility to the community as a
whole. After all, we are "the future leaders of
society". But how can one be successful in one's
job and still be responsible to the community?
Being a success in our society involves fighting
against everyone else. As Karl Marx has said,
under capitalism, "every man finds in other men.
not the realization but rather the limits of his
freedom."
If respxjnsibility is involved, it is only to one's
board of Directors, or Eteacons, to the Bar associa-
tion, or to the shareholders. Is it possible to bo
morally obligated to serve the community as a
whole or do we not have to take sides in carrying
out our social responsibility? If we feel something
to be detrimental to the "community" we are
sure to discover someone is making money out ot
it. The latter attacks us as being irresponsible
social disrupters, or maybe even as "Reds". The
fear of being so slandered is stopping many stu-
dents fr^-m developing any sense of social respon-
sibility at all.
Then too. we are told that the purpose of uni-
versity education is to develop "critical thinking".
But the cold war atmosphere has infected the uni-
versity too. I know people who are afraid to go to
hear certain speakers or receive certain publica-
tions through the mail because these speakers
and papers challenge the status guo. The lear of
being suspected as a Communist is inhibiting
White Dove
The Engineers have done it again. This year they seem
to have crossed a dove with a groundhog, to obtain a bird
which hibernates during the winter months.
A year ago, a brand-new dove of peace — slightly grease-
•meared, possibly, from its engineering associations — flew
out of the old Peace Council nest. For a while great hopes
■were held for the fledgeling, but one day when it was just
begiiming to fly it got drowsy and plummeted swiftly out of
•ight.
When a group of students, mcstly Engineers, took over
the Peace Council executive last March, it was considered a
brilliant coup. By suddenly joining the Council in force at
the last business meeting of the year, they managed to gain
• majority of members and elected their officers. In doing
■o the group used a totalitarian technique of block member-
•hip. But the events of this year would indicate it lacked the
gaving graces — which totalitarians always have — of
organization and purpose.
For a while, the NEW Peace Council showed signs of
life. In this year's Handbook, it promised "purified" methods,
but maintained the same end of peace. There was even a
public meeting early in the year, at which a World Federalist
explained his plan for world unity. The implication was that
this was the first in a series of talks on ways to peace.
Then, in late November, the Council held its first busi-
ne.ss meeting. The result : a decision to investigate amalga-
mation with the campus United Nations Club, since the two
organizations ostensibly have the same purpose — or so they
argued.
my hip-pockets. I yanked it out
Since then the executive has presumably been investi- and suppressing an overwhelming
gating the amalgamation. At any rate, nothing has been desire to kiss Dean Ferguson, look-
heard from it or the Council as a whole. Even the UN Club "'y'"' 3 j^jjed brat ot
>-has not been contacted. It has been left to the Student aboutTo^. ^cig^^r"ette drooping from
thought and action. It is counteracting the tradU
tional high ideals of university education.
Mr. Pearson calls on the universities to train
more clear-thinking students but the policies
his government are primarily to blame for tiia
atmosphere of cynicism and apathy.
Furthermore, if it is intellectual ability that
is wanted why is financial ability made the crl,
terion for entering university? Is it not because
those who come from the higher income groups
will be less critical of the important institutions
in cur society? Is it not because the opportunt,
ties for success, even as defined above, are decreas-
ing rather than increasing?
It is a well known fact that comrpetition foy
the "good" jobs is stiff these days. High univer-
sity fees serve well to limit that competition with-
in certain favored groups. The result of this situ,
ation is, that there are many students who are
only interested in passing their course. They canie
to university "to meet the right people" or because
"it was the thing to do", not because they wanted
to be better educated. This situation could, and
should, be alleviated by malting university edu-
cation free with academic standing as the* only
criterion.
A remedy for the problem of the double stan*
dards and conflicting values held up to the stu-
dents can haixily be found short of a new type
of social system which does not have these con-
tradictions in tt. The comDetitive "dog eat dog"
nature of our society makes Individual success
incompatible with social responsibility.
Changing a social system is a large order, ad-
mittedly, but there are other changes possible
which do not necessitate such radical thoughts.
For example, if. instead of the hysterical cold war.
anti-Soviet situation that exists now, with all its
uncertainties for young people, Canada with all
other countries was disarming, trading with the
Soviet Union and China, her peace-time industries
expanding as a consequence, this change would
have an effect cn the universities. There would be
money to reduce fees. There would be opportuni-
ties for jobs in Industries that are working. to build
up the civilization we have been studying for lour
years, instead of working to destroy it. The fear
of being labelled as "subversive" would be lessened
and "critical thinking" would have a much better
chance to develop.
This may seam far fetched but there are re-
ports from the United States that the war situ-
ation with conscription has made students so
anxious and uncertain that they have even taken
to stealing, examination questions. Canadian stu-
dents have the same anxieties. The difference is
one of degree.

Bkes Nip Lava/ 5-4
McKemie Scores 3
By BARRY THOMAS
Sparked by a brilliant three-goal effort of rangy centre-
man Jaclc MacKenzie, the Varsity Blues emerged on the
winnin*: side of a 5-4 count in a see-saw hockey game played
against Laval at Varsity Arena on Saturday afternoon.
The two teams produced plenty of action in the game,
played before about 2,000 fans, in which the lead was
exchanged several- times. Alihou^;h not as rough as previous
encounlors the contest provided its fair share of penalties.
Altogether 17 minors were meted out by the referees.
VarsUy gained two points on the
second place Laval team by virtue
of the win but is still two iwints
behind the Quebeckers who have
played ('Ai> more garner than the
Blues. Tlie loss was costJy to Laval
who, like the Blues needed a pair
o£ week-end victories in order to
catch the league leading Montreal
Carabins.
The visitors started the game in
great style ajid pressed the Blues
constantly for the first ten minutes
of the opening period. Robert La-
freniere potted a pair of goals to
Rive Lava] an early lead, and

Ottawa. Feb. 17 —(Staff)— The question of Soviet
student visits to Canada will not be settled until next
fall, according to the decision of the National Federa-
tion of Canadian University Students' (NFCUS)
Executive meeting in Ottawa last weekend.
However, questionnaires will be sent in the mean-
time to all member universities to determine accur-
ately student opinion on the matter and investigate
the practical problems of the visit. A final decision
will be reached at the Annual NFCUS Conference to
be held at Laval University (Montreal) next autumn.
The NFCUS Executive felt the new referendum
necessary because of the confusion of the previous
student votes, in which both resolutions and voting
bodies differed widely anfong universities and did
not "provide a satisfactory basis for an intelligent
decision on such an important matter."
•In view ot the decisive expression of student in-
terest in the visit. " the Executive decided, "the mat-
ter should be given complete and serious considera-
tion." The Executive said it respected Canadian stu-
dent wishes and realized consideration of the Issue
runs counter to the express decision made at London
last September.
The new questionnaire begins with the visit prin-
ciple, asking If each student council favors a visit
to Canada of a Russian student delegation of 12 to
15 membeis fbr about a three-week period, and a cor-
responding reciprocal visit. It also states definitely
that the present NPCUS budget cannot possibly
By IAN MONTAGNES
finance such a tour across Canada, and asKs ir stu-
dent councils favor raising necessary funds from stu-
dent and or conmunity sources. ' It is understood
that cost of transportation of such a visit must be
borne by visiting delegation," the questionnaire adds.
The ExecDtive also asks whether the group should
be cultural in nature, as well as consist of student
leaders. Suggested purposes of the visit are to enable
Russian and Canadian students to meet and discuss
problems of mutual interest, and to enable Russian
students to observe Canadian life and Canadian
campl. While the questionnaire is circulating, the
International Activities Commission (lACl will attack
the tour's technical problems, financial and other-
wise, to have all the facts available for presentation
at Laval. This will entail conta-jting the Russian
student organization for further details of the tour,
and investigating the possibility of obtaining clear-
ance for such a group from the government.
The final decision of NFCUS Eixecutive will take
Into account both the referendum and the lAC flnd-
IngB. it was decided.
The Executive •Iso decided not to hold a National
Summer Seminar this year, following the recommen-
dation of McGiU (Montreal) NFCUS Committe©
which advised postponement because of lack of in-
terest. McGill said it had received only one reply to
the seminar questionnaire which was sent to all
university members.

Senior Mat Titles
At Saturday's Athletic Night
the Senior Intramural Wrestling
champions for 1951-52 were crown-
ed. SPS had the evening's best
Bhowing winning four ol the nine
titles. US was second winning
three.
The closest contest ot the even-
ing was between Larry Skitch PHE
and Doug Hamilton SPS. Hamil-
ton won 6-4 on time advantage to
give Skule the 191 pound title.
When Hamilton got the takedown
Skitch i-eversed to tie the score.
Then on the bottom throughout
the second Skitch again reversed
to go ahead 4-2. However, Ham-
ilton reversed in the last period
to set up the victory.
Glen McCarniick, UC, and Phil
Henderson. PHE put up another
rousing display. These two inter-
collegiate candidates who have
been disputing the 167 lb. spot all
season really turned on the heat.
Henderson got tlie initial takedown
and after a reversal by McCormick
he used his arm roll to get on
top again. He gained two more
points for time advantage as he
won the match 6-2.
Bill Chykaliuk UC earned an
expected decision over Leon Smith
SPS 5-0. After bulling through
the first round Chykaliuk escaped
a-t the start of the second. Then
he scored with a take-down. Smith
never got away from him; so add-
ing on time advantage he won 5-
0.
There were two upsets during the
evening. Timo Pallandi dumped
Ernie Dryden. Vic, to become
heavyweight champion, Pallandi.
PHE in trouble in the bout until
the end, finally gained some life
and reversed. Then he applied
the pressure to Dryden and sur-
prisingly pinned the veteran
wrestler at 5.42.
The other upset came in the
157 pound tilt. John Medcoff UC
opened with the takedown and
seemed determined to score a
quick win. He had Jack Taylor
SPS in trouble continuously lor
the first two minutes. However,
Taylor rolled out on top and pin-
ned Medcoff with just five sec-
odns left in the period.
Stan Kopera . PHE , and Paul
Phelan SPS put on a spirited dis-
play in the 147 pound contest. Phe-
lan scored the only points on the
initial takedown and on time ad-
vantage. This reversed the Jun-
ior interfaculty results when Ko-
pera won 2-0.
George Vestos pinned Jack
Christie in 1.43 of the first to win
the 123 pound championship.
Walt Pittman won the 130 pound
title for Trinity in 2.39 of the first.
McGill Fencers
Champions, 41-21
Toronto didn't fare too well in the
intercollegiate fencing champion-
ships held at the Athletic night at
Hart House. The Blues lost all three
classes to McGiU, the only entry in
the contest. The combined score in
the contest was 41-21 for the Red-
men.
The foU event was very one-sided
as McGill dominated this class win-
ning by the score of 13-3. Varsity
looked slightly better in the other
classes losing both the sabre, 9-7,
and the epee. 19-11.
Toronto's Distance Medley Relay Team of Eric Kofnnel, Murray Gaziuk, Mai Craw,
ford, and Chuck Wortman placed fourth in the 2% mile distance medley relay at the
Michigan State Relays Saturday night at Lansing, Michigan. The event was won by tha
University of Michigan in 10 minutes 4 seconds, to break Michigan's own record of lo

When Crawford took the baton
for his three-quarter mile, the
Notre Dame runner passed him
like a shot, and Bowling Green and
Michigan Normal passed him soon
after. He had repassed the Michi-
gan Normal runner and drawn
abreast of Bowling Green when
Chuck Wortman took over for the
mile.
Wortman ran a very good 4:28
mile, pulling clear of Bowling Green
and overtaking Notre Dame. The
latter runner, John Alexander of
Montreal, caught Wortman on the
last quarter, however, to drop To-
ronto back to fourth place.
But for the unfortunate mix-up
at the end of the 440, Toronto
showed at least as much as any
of the teams in the race except
Michigan, whose nearly all-Cana-
dian team ran away from the field
easily.
Several Canadians distinguished
themselves at the meet. John Car-
roll ol Montreal ran a. 49-second
440 to lead off the medley for
Michigan, and Don ^ McEwan of
Ottawa, ran a 3:09 'three -quarter
in the third leg. John Moule of
Hamilton ran a 1:57 half mile in
the two-mile relay, in which Mc-
Ewan also ran a good half mile.
Outstanding performer for Michi-
gan, however, was John Ross of
Oajcville, who ran a 4:13 mile to
anchor the medley relay and a 1:52
half mile to anchor the two-mile
relay. Ross, a sophomore, is a good
bet for Canada's Olympic team,
judging by his metecric rise this
seaspn. Along with Drake's Dewey
Johnston, who won the 1,000 yards
and the two mile, he was the out-
standing runner of the night.

gary, won the 600 in a tJemendous

A University of Toronto mile le,
lay team placed third in a collL'ge
meet at the Buffalo Armories, Sat-
urday, finishing a couple of paces
behind McMaster and ten seconds
behind Syracuse's team, which won
tlie other heat. Syracuse set a blaz-
ing pace right through the race, to
clock in at 3:27.2, an average of 52
seconds for each quarter mile.
George Webster, generally a miler
and two miler, came down to the
quarter to run the first leg of the
race for Varsity, and passed the
baton to Doug McEnteer in about
fourth place. McEnteer pulled up
even with third, and George Mc-
Mullen pulled ahead and held third
place.
Warga ran a very good last leg,
probably about 52 seconds with %
flying start. He passed the third
place man. and finished a step be-
hind Koenig of McMaster to gel
second in the heat, at 3:37.2.
George McMnllen and George
Webster placed fifth and sixth in
the mile, both finishing in about
4:30. The race was won in 4:38
by Morgan of Alfred College. Mor-
gan placed third last year in the
1,000 at Hamilton, in the indoor
meet there.
Doug Wilson and. Jack Warga ran
heats of the 300 before the mile
relay.
The races were run on the ar-
mories' hardwood floor, with the
runners wearing rubber soled shoes,
unlike their teammates at Lansing,
who were able to wear spikes. The
relay team had the fifth and out-
side lane for all their passes in
the meet's unusual way of regulat-
ing the exchanges. As a result the
runners had to swing out to the
outside lane on every exchange.
Varsity will send a full team
down for the big 178th Infantrj
meet in the armories, March 15,
Murray Gaziuk is to run in
invitation mile with Don Gehrman
and Fred Wilt in that meet, and
other Varsity men will be entered
in open events.

St. Catharines All-Stars at Hart

of the game with 19 points.
The AU-Stai's, composed of play-
ers from various sections of the Ni-

Varsity jumped into a quick lead
in the fii'st quarter as Russell and
Madden combined to build up a 14-

McKenzie's lay-up and pair of free
throws pulled the Stars up to 16-9,
but the period ended with Toronto
out in front 22-11, a lead which they
lengthened to 37-20 by half time.
Varsity was getting much the better
of the rebounding, and generally
limited St. Kitt's to one or two shots
every time they brought the ball
down.
Madden's set with three minutes
gone in the third quarter gave the
JV's a 44-20 bulge, their largest of
the game. Fred Martin cHcked for

the lead sUghtly to 46-32.
The St. Catharines squad lost tall

Both Intercollegiate Basketball squads resume their
schedule tonight, when they meet McMaster in a return
double-header. For the Senior team, this game means a final
check-up before the big Intercollegiate tourney at Queen s
■lext week-end. The Toronto girls have played only two
games so far this season, and although eight of the twelve
players are veterans of last year's championship team,
exhibition tilts provide plenty of opportunity to get used, to
the changes in the line-up. . ,
The McMaster teams gave the Varsity gals lots to think
about after the game last month. Senior Mac s Dorothy
Burton, who tallied 15 of McMasters' 23 points, was a con-
stant threat to the Bluebells. The Mac Intermeds also have
an individual powerhouse in Barb Ross. Both these giris
fay a fast, flashy style that makes basketball a spectators
sport. And if you think that this is a plug to get you out
to the game tonight— you're right. This PM's tilt is your

1, +1 n Varsity Blues took an early lead and held it through four quarters of fast bas-
ketball to down Buffalo State 56 to 46 at Hart House Saturday night. Varsity's close
checking held Buffalo's ace Milt Garfield down to 13 points. Although Garfield was high
irovertime^ m^ht, he scored 29 points against the Blues last year. Varsity lost that game
neat hand-off frwn Art Binnliigton.
Buffalo, still stymied by Varsity's
zone defence, jaicceeded in openinff
up the game somewhat with the re-
sult that fast breaks began to pay
off. Monnot tapped in two in a row
for the Blues to put Varsity ahead,
26-13. Van Loan replied for State,
but Ekldie Brennen, who had hard
luck with his shots all night, caged
one for the Blues. Garfield electri-
fied the crowd with a fantastic
running push shot from centre in
the dying seconds of the first half
to make the score 31-30 for the
Blues.

Get Caron Cup
The Univel-sity of Toronto team
won the Caron Trophy, emblematic
of the Canadian Intercollegiate
Gymnastics championship at Sat-
urday's athletic night by edging
out the McGill squad. 112.5 to 107.5
in tota points. McGUi had held
this cup for the last three years.
Frank Grmek led the Varsity
team to the win with 37 points on
a nearly perfect showing. He had
the maximum of 10 on every event
until the last one, the mats event,
"When he dropped to 7. Hugh Alex-
ander was close behind with 32. Af-
ter a consistent display. Alexander
came through with a 10 in the mats
section when Grmek slipped some.
For the Red and White. Marshall
had a total of 34 and Welsford got
30.
The points for each man in each
event are determined by the stand-
ing of his score out a possible 300,
the combined total of the tlu'ce
judges who score each man on thj
basis of a maximum 100. Thus, on
each event, the inen receive any-
where from 0 to 10, depending on
their total in relation to 300.
Varsity won every event but the
Ray Monnot was hi^h scorer for
the Blues in the low-scoring game
vrith 12 points. Lukenda hooped 11
and Fawcett 10. A good crowd
turned out to see the game and
they saw good basketball featuring
a close contest between two evenly
matched ball clubs.
The first quarter started off slow-
ly with both teams checking very
closely. Buffalo State had a tough
time all night trying to crack the
effective zone defence which the
Blues set up. Monnot and Fawcett
sprang loose to score in the opening
seconds. By the end of a see-saw
first quarter the Blues held a 10-7
lead.
The setiond quarter started off
fast -with Gary Glover scoring on a
mats. They were all close. First was
tlie horizontal bar with Varsity tak-
ing a 29-26 lead. Grmek was given
10 points and Welsford took 8 for
McGill. It was 29-26 again for
Variity on the parallel bars. Grmek
had 10 again. Varsity stretched
their lead in the combined flying
rings and pommelled horse event,
outscoring McGill, 30-25. Grmek
got 10 again and Alexander was
close witli 9. McGill roared back
on the mats getting 30.5 points to
Varsity's 24.5. Alexander got 10 for
IT. of T. It was not enough for
McGill to overcome the lead Varsity
had piled up, though, and the final
tally was 112.5 to 107.5.
Varsity opened the second half
with two quick baskets by Huyko
and Fawcett in the first 30 seconds.
Fawcett connected again with a
long set shot, and he followed it up
with another good heave to give
Varsity a fat 41-22 margin. Gar-
field and Wukovitz came back for
the Statenien to make the score
46-33 at the end of the period.
Stale's Negro flasli, Wally Handy,
v.ho showed some clever ballhan-
dling in the Harlem Globetrotter
tradition, opened the last quarter
with a quick lay-up. Tlie two quin-
tettes matched each other point for

two mhiutes remaining Garfield

Impossible angle to narrow Varsity's
lead to eight points at 54-46. Faw-

maining seconds as Varsity hung
on to make the final score 56-46.

Mondoy, February 18, 195^
For many years Toronto has
fatted lor an aU a capella concert
the kind sung by tiie Toronto
Mendelssohn Choir under Sir Ern-
est McMillan last Wednesday ev-
ening in Masscy HaU. The op-
portunity to hear a good choir
unaccompanied Is rare enough,
but a whole evening ol it by such
a large groi'J is rarer still.
After a brief but reverent chor-
al tribute (two chorals from
Bach's St. Malthew Passion) to
the memory of the late king, the
choir began the concert proper
with Byrds Sing Joyfully Unto
God— and did justice to it. This
was followed by two madrigals.
Soster Awake by Thomas Bateson,
and the well-known As Vesta was
from Latinos Hill descending by
Thomas Weelkcs.
The motet Surge Illuminare lor
double chorus by Palestrina is a
scholarly work based directly on
the first six verses of Isaiah LX.
Bach's chorale Come Jcsu Come
*as equally inspiring, but neith-
er was so awesome as Willan's
great Apostrophe to the Heavenfy
nosts.
The effectiveness of the pianis-
simo passages are complement-
ed in several places by their grad-
ual petering out to two soprano
voices. On the wi^ole, this was
jcell performed, although there

was the only place In the program
where diction tended to become
clouded. It was good to have the
words printed, as this piece is R
mine of proper names.
The asslstinr artists, the duo-
pianists Bartlett and Robertson
performed among their arrange-
ments Bach's "Little" fugue In G
minor. Two pianos means tour
hands and two damper pedals—
an apparently sure-fire recipe for
obscurity ol the lugal subject. But
It did not take an open mind and
two open ears to imagine the sub-
ject, lor it always came out in
clear, strident tone.
Whether the Mendelssohn Choir
sings belter accompanied or un-
accompanied is a moot point, and
undoubtedly a matter ol Preler-
ence The truth remains that they
turned out a splendid pei^ormance
last Wednesday eveniuE.
Generally, their attacks were
clean and their releases well-
defined. The only really disap-
pointing aspect ol the whole even-
ing was the pitifully small audi-
ence, but if the choir or the pian-
ists were adversely affected by it,
they certainly did not show it. _

It Is surely common ground among all men
that the State exists for the welfare of its citizens
and that the maintenance of justice Is the most
important factor in social welfare. Justice is not
simply something external to Individuals; it is a
virtue in men's hearts and minds.
It would be a low conception of the State to
think of it only as a coercive and not educative
power, as a policeman and jailor for handling
crimmals. The authority of the State would rest
merely on force if it did not represent morality,
and the State would be no more than a tyranny
if its power were not used for purposes expres-
sive of the conscience of the community.
The positive promotion of what is right is more
important than negative measures against what
is wrong. Ttie State must, therefore, see that
education in right conduct, which is another name
for morals, is available, and that the community
is protected against demoralizing and degrading
influences, The woi'ds of^oly Scripture come to
mind: "Righteousness exalteth a nation but sin
maketh nations miserable."
His Eminence James C. Cardinal McGuigan,
Archbishop of Toronto.
As the organized structure of power within ^
society, the state must exercise its powers justly
by restraining the evils of disorder and anarchy
and seeking the common welfare. But the sources
of moral obligation which determine the relative
justice of the activities of any particular state He
either in some theological or metaphysical prin-
ciple or in the general aspirations of the society
which transcend the particular power structure
of the state.
CompulSv<ry morality is a contradiction in
terms. The state can enforce a relatively high de-
gree of confromity to a pai ticular code, but there
is a great difference between obedience and «
free and responsible choice. Genuine morality jg
only achieved in tlie deliberations and decisions
of relatively free, informed, and responsible indi-
viduals. The protective paternalism of an authorj.
tative state or church has always tended to end
up in self-righteousne.ss, insensitivlty, and a con-
ventional respectability that pays Up scivice to
the letter of the law,, and kills the spirit of good-
nes.s.
The only way to produce mature and reji^onsible
citizens, who themselves will be the most effective
checks upon the tyrannical p^wer of the state, is
to leave 'themfree to make their own choice of
good or evil. Moral goodness is not the fruit of
either force or fear.

news events to tiU it^ uases. The SHARE Com-
mittee's position has been to stress personal can-
▼ass, leaving the running or special events to
campus organizations which wish to help In this
way. Apart from the banquet which was designed
more for publicity and edocation, the skating
party was the only depajture from this policy, and
the Committee tends to regret it in spite of the
$177 dollars it brought in. This position of the
Committee is another compromise between prin-
ciple and expediency, and we feel it is a fair one.
That it is a compromise at all assumes the un-
proven thesis that special events raise more money
than canvass. Supposing this thesis to be true, and
that it is simplj the amount of money that Is
raised which is important, then special events are
called for. This method is painless to the con-
tributor for he gets something he wants in return,
and satisfies his lazry .social conscience by thinking
that the profits which would ordinarily go into
private hands are now helping someone in need.
On the other hand, the SHARE Committee feels
that only If the contributor is encouraged to give
where it hurts a little, and thus to think for a
moment on the humanitarian and sympathetic
X'alues of his givlnij. does such a campaign have
any lasting and educational value. This educa-
tional aim is fundamental to ISS (WDS) work, A
conscious gift is in<;alculably more valuable than
an unconscious one. The SHARE policy is an ef-
fort to encompass he aims of substantial relief,
and broadening education; if It achieves a Httle
In both aims, it accomplishes much. j| a Com-
mittee, then, its functions were seen to bt general
planning, encouragement and synchronizing of
activities, and the distribution of educational pub-
licity.
There were also more practicaj reasons for this
policy. It was noticed by some of last year's AVA
organizers that where personal canvass was used,
it was exceptionally successful. Indeed it was
recommended by those who set up the ElAC that
personal canvass be used in this year's campaign.
It was. And the results seem to have justified the
decision. Five Colleges and Faculties exceeded
their objectives. In all those in which the method
of canvass was used with some vigor and or-
ganizational effort, the results were gratifying.
At the beginning of the year we had the opinion
of a couple of members of the Engineering Society
Executive that AVA had really faUed to reach most
individuals in their part of the campus last year.
Their average was 40c a head. From this it would
probably be safe to conclude that at least 50%
of the Engineering Faculty contributed something.
This was really encouraging. Again looking at the
total receipts to date, we find that of $5,678, only
$1,454 were raised by means other than personal ■
canvass. Remembering that the total for this
year's campaign is not complete, let us do .some
comparing with other years. %\ per student has
never been raised, and it was certainly not ex-
pected that a canvass of this year's undergraduate
Ijody would produce that amount. Even if it did, it
would only come to about $9,000, the numher of
the Undergraduate body. (Toronto has 2,000
graduate students.) AVA's cash receipts last year
gave an averfrge of 66c per undergraduate studenU
The cash receipt* so far this year give an average
of 63c per undergraduate student. We have heard
that in the heyday of the veterans at the U. of T.
an ISS campaign netted about $7,000 out of a*
registered «tudent population of 16,000. At the
moment we have cash receipts of slightly met
$6,600 against a registration of 11.000 — a sli-jhtly
better showing. Considering that personal Liuivas*
has been the core of our campaitjn, and thnt it has
involved more people actively for a shorter time,
it seems to us that the method has been justified
by the results.
We might have been better to have b\idgeted
on a figure about $9,000, on the basis of one dollar
per undergraduate,
A revising of the budget will not, of colu■^e,
be made until the final receipts are In.
The followinir figures clearly set out here may
be of interest. SHARE has total cash receint.s to
date of $3,678. which with expenses of $311 de-
ducted, and a balance from AVA of *29, \<- ves a
net cash on hand of $6,196. AVA had net cash
receipts of $6,845.
In general, we may say that the SHARE Com-
mittee tried lo design a type of campaign lhat
would build good-wlU and be a pattern wiiioh
succeeding years could follow. It has made .-^ome
errors, of coarse; and there will always be iome
knotty problems in publicity and organlzaiion in
a university the size of ours. But we belic-e that
the Committee has successfully set the main lint-s
of future cftmpaign work.
No ten people have worked liarder aruiind the
University this year than the SHARE Comuulice,
and for no glory, gain or, apparently, thanks. Only
their chief, Tim Armstrong, has achieved .-xny .'^ort
of general recofinition or acknowledgment around
the University. It is hard to express how pleased
they were, as a group, to see the encouingmg and
helpful comments of Mr. Cork in the Feb. 12
varsity, although his letter was used edilori;ilIy
as a new occasion to launch old and facile criti-
cisms. We feel that the Committee has done good
work.

News Story
With Twist
Is A Feature
The essential in feature writing
Ss to find a little personal twist in
the story and develop it. said
Wessley Hicks in tiie third of the
Varsity-sponsored lectures yester-
day. Hicks, who writes a daily
column for the Evening Telegram,
spoke on the art of feature writ-
ing.
"A feature story, in these days
when space is scarce in a news-
paper, must have a news peg,"
Hicks told a gathering of about
•Ixty students, Including members
of tlie Varsity staff. "A feature
•tory is really a news story dress;
ed up to tickle people's fancy. The
galliering of news is basic in any
newspaper work, no matter what
jou do on the paper."
Feature writing is a specialty re-
quiring a little more icnowledge of
the business, and a little more
ekill. than newswriting, Hicks said.
Moreover, he said the feature writ-
er is a better writer, and is treat-
ed as such. There is also more
Juture in this type of work. The
men on the big beats, such as Ot-
tawa, deal to a large extent in
news, but do a little of the inter-
preting, and give the little pic-
tures, which are essentially fea-
ture writing.
"Newspapers don't have feature
departments these days," Hicks
said, but make features out of the
ordinary assignments. In writing
» feature story, the reporter should
first get the basic information, as
in newswriting. Then he should
try to develop the twist wliich
makes a story a feature. Unlike
newswriting, where as much of the I
material as possible should be
crowded into the first paragraph,
the feature writer, if telling tlie
etory properly, should dole out the
Information bit by bit, to arouse
the reader's interest.
Sob sister writing lias a defin-
ite place in the newspaper, he
said, in answer to a question.
"Tlie best newspaper in the world,
with the most objective report-
ing, must be read by people, or it
is a failure. Since newspapers
these days are a business, not a
gentleman's hobby, they must be
financially successful, and it is
undoubtedly crime and sensation-
alism that build circulation."
Hicks writes a daily column,
••Walt a Minute." for the Tele-
gram. A student at the Univer-
sity of Toronto in the early 30's. he
faas been in newspaper work ever
since. He served in World War
S. in the navy, and later as a war
correspondent.

Honor Centenaries
In Torontonensss
Torontonensis this year will be
dedicated to Trinity and St. Mich-
ael's Colleges which are now cele-
brating their centennial anniver-
saries. Walter Mackenzie, Toron-
tonensis editor for 1951-52, reveal-
ed this fact for the first time in
an interview Wednesday.
This is being done in hopes of
stimulating more sales of the year
book, especially in the colleges to
which it is dedicated, said Mac-
kenzie.
The main trouble, according to
Mackenzie, is in selling subscrip-
tions to the students. To date
only 13 to 14 hundred subscrip-
tions have been sold and the books
have to be bought in advance.
"Most of the students." said Mac-
kenzie, "have the childish attitude
of refusing to pay for the book be-
fore they receive it. However we
can't take a chance of being able
to sell the books after. The loss
resulting from any books left over
is absorbed by the Students' Ad-
minstrative Council (SAC) and
eventually by the student body."
"Also tbe students don't seem to
Itnow what Torontonensis is. In pre-
vious years the book was a memen-
to for the graduating class. In the
past couple of years, the tendency
has been to make a book for all
University students. Campus
shows, faculties, activities, clubs,
at-homes, and people are all in-
cluded and we are trying to in-
crease the coverage of campus
life. This year we are running
some historical material in con-
nection with Trinity and St. Mich-
ael's."
"Another headache for the
staff," said Mackenzie, "Is to get
people to meet their deadlines
Things are left to the last minute
and deadlines have to be extended.
Material that should have been in
last December is still coming In
and there is no indication when
the flow will stop. However, it
will have to be soon because sales
will probaWy end sometime this
week."
"The students* pet peeve." said
Mackenzie, "is the $3.50 price for
the book. The cost O'" production
is $6.00. The SAC gives us a sub-
sidy. Money from the space sold
in the book also goes towards ex-
penses.
"From a survey made of 77 col-
leges and universities on the con-
tinents, we feel the students
haven't anything to complain
about. For its size Torontoneasis
is the lowest priced year book on
the continent. Prices range up tp
$12.00 for some and the average is
$5.50 while only six books out of
the 77 are larged than Torontonen-
sis."
Anyone is welcome to join the
staff in the Drill Hall at 119 St.
George Street.
Was Inspiration
Says President
It was clear, sunny and cold last Friday when the ]jj
versity of Toronto gathered to pay its last respects to
late King George the Sixth. It was a quiet dusk when
six hundred people filed solemnly from Convocation
one hour late*.
The memorial service was simple
and reverent. Speaking of the late
King. President Smith of the Uni-
versity of Toronto said that in our
time he had given a new strength
to ihe Crown. "The death of His
Majesty George VI has brought to
an end one of the most remarkable
reigns m tJie history of the English
monarchy," he said.
During the First World War.
President Smith served in the Royal
Plying Corps, under the King, tUen
Duke of York. He gave effective
leadership and showed a genuine
interest in the men. Smith said.
Royal pomp lias never overshadow-
ed his humanity, he continued.
Reviewing the fifteen Christmas
messages broacast annually by the
Delay Decision
(Continued from Page 1)
The Canadian University Debat-
ing Association finals will be held
in Ottawa on March 7 and 8, the
Executive also decided. The siibject
is "Resolved that Canada should
have a Bill of Rights".
The Executive deplored the "new
attitude" of International Union of
Students (lUS) publicity, which it
says has been insulting Canada in
recent months. It predicted an ac-
centuation, rather than a lessening
of this attitude.
Present at the meeting were
NPCUS President Jean de Mar-
gerie, Lavil; Ontario Regional Vice-
President Kathy Swift, MoMaster;
Quebec Regional Vice-pres. Don
Lawrence, Bishop's College; Mari-
time Vice-pres. Bill Hoyt, Acadia;
Western Canada's vice-pres. Don
McGilliviay, Uaskatchewan; and
lAC Chairman Syd Wax, Toronto.

were ratified except one making

ecutive, with the vote, 10 against,

members and others with various
aspects of journalism. Other talks
were given by Ken MacTaggart of
tbe Globe and Mail, and Ted
Reeve, sports columnist of the
Telegram.
Though frequently interrupted
by five hecklers in the audience,
Hal Proctor, of the Labor Pro-
gressive Party, claimed in a lec-
ture on "The Marxist View of the
State" last Thursday, that the
state was simply "the apparatus
by which the capitalist class is
maintained over the working
class." He said tbe stale was not
neutral but actively worked in
support of the ruling class— the
capitalists.
Proctor, former educational di-
rector of the Labor Progressive
Party, was speaking at the sec-
ond of a lecture series on "Marx-
ism" sponsored by the campus
LPP Club. The lectures are held
each Thursday noon-hour in Room
11, UC. It was estimated that
about 45 .students attended.
According to Proctor, Marxists
see the state as "all the weapons
parliament, the police, the press,
the army, and so on" whereby the
rule of the small class of E. p.
Taylors and J. S. Duncans over the
large labor class is continued. He
said that only if the conditions of
fascism is the open rule of the
capitalist made clear to the peo-
ple.
At one point during the lecture
Chairman Shirley Endlcott stopped
the speaker and tried to quiet the
hecklers. She asked them to stop
drawing chalk figures oo the seats
as the LP Club is responsible
for the way the room Is left."
Proctor cbarged that the press
was only perpetuating the "big
lie that Canada has to fear aggres-
sion from the Soviet Union." He
declared only 22 per cent of Ca-
nadians, according to a Gallup
Poll, believed this and that the
press was speaking only for the
capitalists.
"Under cover of the term law
and order a fictitious equality be-
tween the million dollar corpora-
tion and the worker is created,"
he said. The "striking power" of
government comes out in support
of tlie capitalists, he added.
"When there is a threat to the old
ruling class the rules are changed
in order to secure the ruling
class."
Proctor rejected the idea that
Communists support violence.
"There is not one bit of evidence."
he said, "that Communists advo-
cate force or violence."
The speaker believed the Cana-
dian Parliament could be used by
the people of Canada to win social-
ism "If they control parliament
and if the capitalists are ousted
from their controlling positions In
the state apparatus."
Proctor graduated in Chemical
Engineering from the University of
Toronto in 1936 and also has hia
B.Sc. degree. He has been with
the LPP since Its inception.

The CtBC Wednesday Nigtot production of Shakespeaxe's OTHELLO
certainly better than average radio-fare, bpt it- could hardly be
ed an excellent presentation of this famous tale of love and
lousy. Seldom do the short-comings of radio appear so great
so obvious as in such a production, which being written for the
;e by a great playwrlgrht, is not easily translated Into other terms.
The major conflict of the play is between the arch-villain lago
his master Othello. The two have almost diametrically owjosed
racters, and the clever lago works constantly on the Innocent
Id of the Moor forcing' him to actions that he would not oidinarily
This relation was not a« clear on the radio, ■ if only because
0 is not constantly present, watching, thinking, plotting, and
cting. The big scene between the two — the, temptation scene
was the best in the show because here the essential feeling of
y was explicit in the speeches.
The prodDction as a whole was, I think, further marred by a
that was far too fast; It didnt allow one time to take in the
*ning of all the speeches — especially lago's, for his mind is
* and one must realize all that he is thinking. John Drainie in
^ most difficult part was not sufficiently clear himself as to the
suing of his lines.
^His scenes with Roderigo did not savour of true obscenity and
nogra-pby as I think Shakespeare Intended. Nor did Drainie pay too
ch attention to lago's advice to Roderigo about the body being a
to which the will is gardener. Too often lago lost his self
trol, and seemed to be acting, or planning to act, according to his
'"^s rather than his mind.
Green played the part of the Moor with great strength and
He was i>erha^>s a little weak in his doubts; there was not

to him or not. But I felt that he outdid himself in the final

_?l>e production showed too that the majority of Toronto radio
cannot spea^ Shakespearian verse. The only ones who really

Lack of a quorum prevented the
Engineering Society from taking a
vote on the proposed fee raise for
the Society. The engineers held the
meeting on last Thursday in Con-
vocation Hall.
PresideDt Doug Sberk, announc-
ing that the vote will not be tsiken,
said that '"If you leave we will not
be offended, but nt a future meet-
ing we may not be able to explain
everything so clearly-, therefore it
would be good if you stayed."
While some students left, there
were catcalls, boos and some shout-
ed "Here go the Artc-men." and
"This is the Skule spirit.-
"The Executive has definite opin-
ions about the raise, bui; it is up
to the students to decide," said
Sherk. ''We are the first Executive
really caught by this cost of liv-
ing rise," he added.
If the students will not approve
the $3.00 raise, they will have to
keep paying a .substantial amount
tlirough the purchase of tl eir equip-
ment at the society's .store, said
Sherk. At the present the store is
operating on a 30% mark-up basis,
the gross profit amounting to $6,900.
Next year the store will operate on
a 20% mark-up basis, if the raise
is approved, he said. "Tlie gross
profit will be $4,655 ~ if students
buy the same number of slide rules,
refills, and other things next year,"
Sherk said.
According to Sbcrk, the present
prices in the Engineering Store are
slightly below the prices of the
downtown stores. "Ne.vt year on the
207o mark-up basLs we could offer
goods much more Lh-^aply than
anyone else." he said.
This year's Toike Oikc Quarterly
was to combine the now-defunct
"Transactions and Yearbook," and
the Toike Olke Newspaper, said
Sherk. "We feel that the News-
paper was missed by the students,"
he said. He felt that the Engineers
also need a Handborl:, especially
the freshmen, since it would con-
tain useful informaiion about the
cannon, and. as he put it, that "we
hate Artsmen, we hate Medsmen.
we love Skulemen, and that sort of
nonsense," and infnrmatlon about
the Society's operations, and con-
stitution.
Commenting on tliis year's School
Dinner, Sherk said that "It was a
good do, and you should have been
there." It may have to be held in
Union Station's Oak Room next
year, where a plate would probably
only cost a student $1.00. he said.
The Skule Nite show may have to
be cut too, he added.
UN Club Meeting
Over Suez Issue
The United Nations Club is holding its final Model
Security Council meeting this Wednesday night at 8:00 p.m.
in Cartwright Hall, St. Hilda's College. The topic of this
term's Model Council is, "The Annexation of the Suez Canal
Zone as a threat to World Peace."
Jane Grey, II St. Hilda's, said
yesterday that the l^ptian dele-
gation to the U.N. Clnb Security
Council held a special meeting
Thursday. "We have decided to pre-
sent a resc^ution demanding "that
the British troops evacuate the Suez
Canal'," she said.
Dissatisfaction with this reoohi-
tion was expressed by Holland de
Comeille, rv Trin., speaker for the
Aamerican delegation at this Coun-
cil. De Oornellle stated, "the Ameri-
can delegation will bring in an-
other resolution with a more posi-
tive tone." The general effect of the
resolution which de Corneille out-
lined will be to put the Canal zone
under some form of trusteeship un-
til Britain's current treaty expires
in 1956.
The Russian delegate. Eld. Lowry,
could not l>e reached for comment,
but Dave. ^ Tumbull. Ill SPS. a
member of the Russian delegation
and speaker at last term's Model
Council, claimed their line will be
to support the E^'ptian resolution.
"The Russians believe that treaties
become out of date," he said, and
"that tiiis one In particular is con-
trary to the U.N. Charter". "My
delegation will argue that it vio-
lates the Egyptian territorial sov-
ereignty." Turnbull added, "and in
addition, the Russian delegation
will argue that the treaty was ob-
tained under duress."

Presenting the Engineering Ath-

Seattle said that the main expense
is the cost of equipment. During
the AJax years the Associalion had
surplus money, because of the high
enrollment, and they bought a lot
of equipment. In the last few years,
therefore, they did not need to buy
much, but now they do, he said.
The Athletic Association is asking
for a 11.00 raise per student.

Seattle said. "We have mote teams,
and there is more participation in
sports now than before, rllhough
our enrollment is lower," he said.
When the depreciation i; added
to the other items on L,:c budget,
the amount the student.s should
pay comes very close to S3.00. said
Bob Seattle. The present fee is $2.00.
One student suggested at the

CarabSn Week-End
Cortoon by Hugh Niblock
Rc?dSo Renaissance
In the February gloom of esiay dead-
lines and library UneuDs, a ray of extr-^-
eurricular sunshine seems to be flit-
ting across the campus. At a time of year
when almost everyone has packed his
bloop in mothballs and is laying in extra
■upplies of cigarettes and College Out-
lines for the long siege ahead, extra-
cun-lcular enthusiasm is a little incredible,
but pleasantly so.
Yet, when enthusiasm centre* about
redio, it seems to have entered the reahns
of fantasy. For the trials and tribulations
•f .the Radio Committee have affhcted
the Students' Administrative Council since
the former's inception.
Spurring the Radio Committee into any
kind of activity — aside from conflicts
within itself — has required a sort of
blind determination on the part or the
BAC, Only in January, the Radio Com-
mittee almost lost its toehold on the AM
network when its program diiector re-
tigned. Yet, under a new director. C. M.
Godfrey, the series of programs '•Of Mice
and Men", has soared to unprecedented
beight-s of popularity.
Undoubtedly, this forum of opinion pro-
gram is the easiest to arrange since no
scripts and little preparation are neces-
aary. The main requirement — people
with lively opinions — has been fulfilled
and the twenty-five minutes on CKEY
have been splendidly chaotic sparring
. Kssions. *
Howevei-, the radio renaissance bai'ely
begins here. Just after the Radio Com-
mittee began to exhibit quite forcefully
Its "yaison d'etre", a group of real
enthusiasts have embarked upon a plan to
establish a "Varsity" radio station. Now,
Buch ambition is highly laudable, but we
rather wish that it could be channelled
into the activities of the Radio Com-
mittee,
Aside from the difficulty, probably the
lmpo!<sibility, of getting an AM station,
the pi-oblems of organization and staff
would be almost too difficult to meet.
Even a few hours of radio broadcasting
each day would require vast hordes of
people— writers, actors, program planners
and supervisers and so on. The demands
are insatiable.
With its very modest programs, two in
number, the present Radio Committee
has. at times, been hard put to find
enough material, let alone people, to carry
on. Surely this new enthusiasm, both
within and without the Radio Committee,
30Uld provide the additional members
aecessary to carry on a more ambitious
program.
In the past, however, the Radio Com-
mittee has always been plagued by initial
delay in organization. September finds
them without scripts, definite pro&iam
time — and without an experienced Com-
mittee chairman. For each year, the SAC
chooses one of its members to head the
committee; usually it is someone with-
out any previous experience and often
without sufficient zeal.
Year after year, a sort of split often
develops between the man ostensibly in
charge and the hard core of Interested
people who continue their work together.
It is difficult to foresee any broad pro-
gram of development imless some con-
tinuity in leadership is established.
If the Radio Committee was set up on
the same basis as The Varsity and Toroii-
tonensis, then such continuity might be
possible. Although the committee would ,
still be responsiijle to the SAC, it would
be able choose as its leader someone who
was not only interested, but who also had
had some experience in radio -work.
We would suggest tliat before the Uni-
versity of Toronto contemplates a radio
station, it ought to build a strong radio
committee; that before it emharks upon
three or four hours of programs per
evening, it should be able to organize
that many hours each week. Up to now
this has been impossible.
Those who would establish a radio sta-
tion now, look rather as if they are put-
ting the cart before the horse. Indeed,
it would seem chat they have overlooked
the horse almost entirely .

The SHARE Committee and the EAC
Executive wish to try to clear up the
confusion and doubts which appear to
reign in the minds of the Varsity editors
and of the UC Lit. the expression of
which may be causing concern in the
minds of some of the many generous
contributors to SHARE.
This is a lengthy defence of the SHARE
Campaign. The EAC regrets the length
but feels that it has been forced into
this positi-jn by The Varsity. Prejudicial
criticism can always be brief, and un-
fortunately, once launched, it can only be
counteretl by detailed analysis.
Starting with the backgrountl, we must
point out the error in the statement in
The Varsity editorial of Feb. 12 that in
the relation of SHARE to AVA "'the main
point of difference is its name." AVA was
a spontaneous U. of T. student caniptiign
undertaken by the SAC and as many
independent campus organiziitions as
would participate. It gave $3,000 to the
National ISS for which the To-
ronto ISS (WUS) committee, then a body
of volunteers entirely independent of the
SAC. gave up its local campaign. Of that
$3,000, S1.200 was marked as Toronto's
commitment to the upkeep of the Na-
tional Office, and the remaining $1,800
was returned to this year's EAC for DP
Scholarships. At the end of last year,
when most students were too busy pre-
paring for exatns to notice such affairs,
it was decided by the SAC with the
wholehearted agreement of the Toronto
ISScWUSi Committee to unite the local
activities of NPCUS and ISS (WTJS) in
one Commission of the SAC. Tlius the
EAC became both the Toronto NPCUS
Committee and the Toronto ISS (WUS)
Committee. The SHARE Cormnittee is
one of several functioning committees of
the EAC. conducting an ISS (WUS) ac-
tivity.
SHAKE therefore has a character quite
different in constitution from AVA. It is
an ISS<WUS> campaign run by the SAC,
This position was made explicitly clear
at an EAC meeting last term in re-
sponse to special questioning by a mem-
ber of The Varsity Editorial staff, as well
as in an earlier mimeographed exposition
of the nature and functions of EAC. so
The Varsity ought to know better. This
position was also made clear in the EAC
and to those responsible for the can-
vassing in the Colleges and Faculties
through The explanation of two items in
the SHARE budget. These were in the
nature of ISS (WUS) commitments apart
from direct relief.
One of these items was §1,100 (IQc ix;r
registered student at Toronto). This the
Toronto ISS (WUS) Committee's (i.e. the
EAC'sl commitment to the upkeep of the
ISS (WUS) National and International
Offices. This contribution is productive in
that the National Office, kept in existence
by such sums, raises money from non-
university sources for the ISS (WUS)
work of international relief and educa-
ti(Mi.
The other was the sum of $1,500 for
DP and Exchange Scholarships. This year
three DPs have been supported at To-
ronto by the $1,800 from AVA returns
mentioned above and by the generosity
of Trinity, UC and the Phi Kappa Pi
Fiaternity. One student vrill complete his
studies this pear. We have a moral obli-
gation, although not a legal one, to as-
sist the remaining two to complete their
studies. For this purpose the sum of
$1,500 was included in the budget of the
campaign. Exchange was mentioned in
case these plans were negated by a fail-
ure, in which case the money could still
be used to support a foreign student liere.
Since the sum is for use next year, it
may be possible to get it from another
source, the SAC. It has been recommend-
ed by Trinity that in the future the sums
for the support of the National Office
and the DP and Rxchange Scholarships
be payable out of SAC fees. If this is
adt pted in this spring's budget to apply !
next year then It may prove possible to
devote to relief this $1,500 from the cam-
paign monies.
Now let us look at a detail criticized
by the UC Lit. "$600 was needed to cover
campaign expenses," said Mr. Clee, ac-
cording to The Varsity. $600 was the
anount named in the budget for ex-
penses. That iigure represents very close
to S'/i;';; of the budgeted total. The
SHARE Committee promised itself that
it would not spend more than $400 on ex-
penses. Thanks to the generosity of the
T. Eaton Company and others, the total
expenses will not exceed $340, which is
very close to 5yj% of the total cash on
hand.
Mr. Clee also complained (according to
The Varsity) that $4300 was contracted
to ISS (WUS)." It is difficult to sefcvjust
how Uiis figure was arrived at. Out of
the total proposed budget. $8,300 was
marked for relief. Half of this. $4,150.
was designated to meet particular relief
needs in particular places outlined in
WUS's programme of action for 1952. Ac-
cording to the regulations of WUS relief
campaigns, the other half of the money
to be used for reUef must remain imdesig-
nated. It will all be applied by Interna-
tional WUS to relief in parts of its pro-
gramme of action not fulfilled by
nations similar to om-s. This uy^^
lows for the publicity advantau'^ I
designation and the efficiency adv'*^ I
in filling-up gaps of a. central adrti^'
tion The concept of contract siviu'^
by Mr, Clee only shows ignorance

Without reference to the deti
Varsity headline "SHARE Publicity

we were well aware. The name
was chosen primarily because it ^
that the significance of the word it"

Student Help to Asian ReUef and s!"
tion was felt to be justified in the
of the destination of all our desit-J
relief and of the major part of the
designated sum as well. In the
stages of planning Eraser Mustaixj
Vice-President of the Medical Soci
offered criticism on this score, pgy

Laval Defeats Varsity 5-4
On Late Goal By Dubeau
Gaining A Weekend Split
A goal by Roland Roland with
one minute and forty-five seconds
to play, gave Laval University a
5-4 verdict over the Varsity Blues
in the second game of a two-game
week-end series. The score was
the same as last Saturday's but
this time the Quebeckers came out
on the right end. The win vaulted
the Laval team into first position
in the Intercollegiate League, one
point ahead of Montreal Carabins.
The first two periods of the con-
test were dull, to say the least, but
the last one pi'ovided the most
spectacular action seen at the
Arena for many a daju'^'The Blues
yanked out goalie Jack' Ross with
S5 seconds to go but the Laval
team held and almost scored on
*«e open net in the last few sec-
onds. Varsity, down two goals
^dway through the last period,
lought back valiantly to tie the
r Uore when Captain Ernie Prey
^^apped in the tieing marker after
Ceriy Pitzhenry had made the
^core 4-3 by sinking a long bloop-
-shot from the blue Une that
Koaiie Vezina fanned on.
The Blues started off well and
Jad an advantage in the play fof

{ji^vansseur while Pitzhenry of
J'arsity was off, for charging. The
Jjw^als bounced Tjack to again take
lead when defenceman Red

net. This was done whUe

At present, the increased cost of
printUig the yearbook, "Old Mc-
Gill", has led to a deficit this year
of $1 000. that must be covered from

WhUe the cost of printing the

only $2.50 a copy.
bilil^ of cancelling or curtailing the
seminar.
The money will be raised, it is
hoped, thiough donations from
business firms and interested in-
dividuals. There is also a possi-
bility that the provincial govern-
ments will» as in the past, give
grants to Subsidize students from
their own provinces. There has been
and will be. no attempt at fmid-
raising though a campaign, Mrs.
Dixon said.
"We are usually in bad financial
condition at this time of year,
Mrs. Riddel-Dixon said. "But some
of the money is in already, and we
are hoping for the rest." The us-
ual objective is about $45,000.
A flood of applications is expect-
ed for the four delegates allotted
to University of Toronto students.
Applic ition forms wilt not be avail-
able for another week, through the
local ISS committee, but already
about thirty inquiries have been
received from people wanting to
apply, she continued. Interest
should be unusually large this year
because people are naturally mter-
ested in a trip to Asia, and be-
cause India has been the centre of
so much discussion lately, she said.
The theme of the seminar will be
"Human Implications of Techno-
logical Chane". It will folow the
usual pattern of a .series of lectures
on the various aspects of the theme
by leading professors, Canadian
and foreign, as well as smaller dis-
cussion groups, and opportunities
for • Individual sightseeing, Mrs.
Dixon said. One hundred and twen-
ty students are expected to attend
the seminar. 40 from Canada, 40
from South East Asia, and the rest
from the rest of the world. Students
are selected on the basis of ac-
ademic ability, university activities,
and character, by a panel of stu-
dents and professors on each cam-
pus.
This Is the fifth year for ' the
seminar. Previous sessions have
been held in Germany, the Nether-
lands. France, and Ottawa.

**Le Chant des Carabins" echo-
ed loudly in the Union Station
Sunday night as 40 Varsity stu-
dent5^ with pronounced French ac-
cents struggled off the Montreal
train with skis and smuggled
American cigarettes. All agreed
that the Carabin .weekend in Mont-
real has been a success, intellec-
hially and recreationally.
The rushed schedule for the
weekend included a day of skiing
ftt the University of Montreal
lodge at St. Sauveur in the Laur-
entians. a tour of the University,
two parties, a banquet, a formal
welcome by the Rector of the Uni-
versity, Monseigneur Olivier
Maurault. a discussion on the
Aims and Methods of Education in
Ontario and Quebec, a memorial
mass for the late king, and a per-
formance of the University revue,
Le Bleu et Or.
The discussion started with a
augh when Don Michel, n U.C.,
nho was explaining the Ontario
viewpoint on education for the
Vai-sity representatives, read sjn
anticipatory report of the week-
end in the Sunday edition of La
By D£NISE RICHARDS
Patrie, which appeared Saturday
noon saying that Michel had spoit-
en eloquently.
Mrfhique Lortie, Montreal Psych
ology student, explaining the Que-
bec viewpoint, said that religion
gives orientation to education. She
added that "a nice liberal educa-
tion for its own sake is a luxury
we cannot afford."
Michel's speech led to repercus-
sions at the banquet. He said that
man, who is inherently good, does
not need the support of religion,
as a good lemon meringue pie
doesn't really need the support of
a pie plate. When apple pie a la
mode was served at the banquet
that night. Michel's mates forced
him to eat it witliout the plate-
It was generally agreed in the
discussion that the main problem
of education was the question of
who is to say when something
taught ceases to be opinion and
becomes truth. On the solution of
this problem depends whether
education should be based on a
question or an answer about the
nature of God.

Faculty of Science, welcomed the
Toronto group in the name of the
mayor at the banquet. Speaking
on the problem of science and re-
ligion, he said that the decline of
the humanities was due to the fact
that humanists accepted the myth
of the omnipotence of science,
which has been rejected by most
scientists.
Quebec bad refused federal aid
for education, he said, to preserve
academic freedom. He said that
Quebec feared that the principle
of "no donation without representa-
tion" would not allow the govern-
ment to respect the autonomy of
the university.
Father Paul Gregoire, Chaplain
of the University, conducted a
special memorial mass for the
late King Friday morning, before
the buses left for St. Sauveur. The
informality of the service was very
evident, for all the weekenders
were in ski clothes, as was the al-
tar boy. and ski pants were visivle
beneath the robes of the priest.
Spirits were revived on the trip
back, after the reluctant parting
to "Ce N'est Qu'un Au Revoir"
(Auld Lang Syne) by a conga line
throug-h the train, and a snowball
fight in the aisles. But the French
songs were sung with a nostalgic
sadness.
An extra touch of color was add-
ed to the music of the deKresz-
Hambourg Trio Saturday after-
noon, when Leslie Mann, clarinet-
ist, joined them for one of their
regular concerts in the Museum
Theatre. The tone of the clarinet,
so utterly different from the
strings', provided a welcome con-
trast to the more usual chamber
music heard at the other concerts
of this series.
The worfas performed were the
Trio op. H by Beethoven (clarinet,
piano and cello) . five Bagatelles
by Leslie Mann (clarinet and cel-
lo) and the Trio op. 110 by Schu-
mann (violin, piano and cello) .
The five Bagatelles were given
their first pxlhlic performance.
On first thought, the idea of
writing music for clarinet and
cello seems a grotesque one. Two
instruments so widely separated in
range would hardly be expected
to make a reasonable-sounding
combination without some sort of
harmonic filling-in between. How-
ever. Leslie Mann has succeeded
in writing quite reasonable music
for them.
Thous:h one does not usually think
of it that way, the ranges of the
clarinet and cello actually over-
lap. Leslie Mann has them an-
swering each other with the same ,
phrase, and even puts the clarin-
et to accompanying the cello oc-

U of T Team Overwhelmsl
Yankees In Debate Touri
Not one debnte was lost by the
Toronto team of Dwlght Pulfwxi,
in Trinity, and John Morden, VI
Wycliffe, on the recent five-day
tour to the United States.
The first debate was held at
Wellesley College, Boston, and the
judges declared a tie. The Toronto
team took the affirmative on the
topic, "Resolved that the United
States Government should adopt a
permanent .syst.era of price and
wage control.^,'" Fulford's comment
on Wellesley was "proper young
ladies receiving a proper education
in a proper 400-acre surrounding."
The Toronto team won the de-
bates at both Harvard and Prince-
ton universities. Of these, Pulford
thought of Harvard as intellectual
and Princeton as social. At the
Harvard debate the topic debated
was "Resolved that this house ap-
proves of United States leadership
in World Affairs." The debate at
Princeton was based on the mo-
tion "Resolved that modem edu-
cation is producing, a race of edu-
cational Idols."

You Can *t Se® That Movie,
Freedom, In American nsace,

bald MacLeish.
+ ♦ +
These are brave words. Artd Care-
lessly, most of us win nod our
heads in agreement with them. We
do this to most platitudes, taking
them for granted, not bothering to
pause a minute to consider what
the \\'ords mean. We are so sure of
ourselves and our freedom, that wc
are almost indifferent.
Yet you cannot buy a copy of
Balzac's Droll Stories, William
Faulkner's Sanctuary, or Charles
Erskine Scott Wood's Heavenly Dis-
courses in Ontario. You cannot see
LA RONl>E or WAYS OF LOVE,
two line European films.
The Censor says No.
The frightening thing about these
words by Archibald MacLelsli Is
that they were used recently in a
defensive attem.pt to, re-affiim the
democratic ideal of freedom of
thought and opiniori. In this time
•f-fear and insecurity, it was lelt
that a ringing defence was neces-
■ary against the bulldozdnfi pres-
iUres toward a rigid and safe con-
formity.
MacLeish goes on to explain what
would seem over-obvious to us who
are products of the doctrine of free
men. "A man's freedom," he de-
clarer, -does not depend on what he
believes." And a|;ain, "In the Amer-
ican conception of freedom, the
man and his conscience come first
and the established opinions, the
accepted verities, the official views
come after." A needless reminder?
While this conception of freedom Is
not an American monopoly, it has
constantly needed re-stating and
tmphasizing in all democracies.
Censorship is a particularly pow-
erful enemy of freedom of thought
and opinion. And it has proved to
be willing hand-maiden for any
force or doctrine which demanded
narrow rigid obeisance and attacked
the existence of diversity of opinion.

be bored. After the special screen-
ing, there was some talk of the pos-
slbihty of an "X" rating being es-
tablished in Ontario. But apparent-
\S, the censor has chosen the easy
way out. LA RONDE is banned
"for the time being."
Censorship of movies, like books,
is a secret process. All exhibitors
must submit their films for censor
ship and pay a fee to the censor
for the service. The censor is free,
under provincial statutes, to make
any cuts or to ban a film. He does
not have to explain his reasons to
the public for any censoring.
With the new emergence of "art
house" theatres which specialize in
"different" fihns to cater to the
losW audience — those who had out-
grown standard film fare, censor-
ship has become exposed to the
bright glare of public curiosity. For
the first time, there are movie pa
trons who take more than a passing
Interest In films, especially hi Euro
pean imports. So much that, the
censor's control over film freedom
is now being questioned by those
who can't see why Toronto movie-
goers should be cheated of a film
that Washington and Atlanta see
with Impunity.
Along mth questions about how
censorship has affected particular
films, there has come the most Im
portant question: Why film censor-
ocncerning the excesses of the
adolescent chest-pounding of the
new industry.
The Johnston office, formerly the
Hays office, administers the Code
which was drafted by two Catho-
lics, ope a priest and the other a
layman. But the Code cannot be
blamed on one Church, all major
Church groups in America support-
ed the ^de at its adoption. The
Code means pre -censorship of all
Hollywood-made filmis, since all
scripts must be submitted to the
Johnston Office for corrections and
approval before production. The
taboos have naturally affected the
quality and diversity of themes
that films might deal with. One
long-reigning sex taboo even in-
sisted that all married couples
must be esconced in twin beds in
bedroom scenes. It was Dr. Marie
Stopes who charged that twin beds
were perhaps the most danerous
menace to happy marriage in
America. But then, the Stopes'
books On maniage and sex educa-
tion ran into constant c«nsorship

their production and distribution
than any other media. Hollywood
films are subject to rigid self-regu

Twelve cuts were made by the

in the line: "I would like to kiss

After the Motion Picture Code
pre -censorship, films go through
local censor boards. There are sev
eral in America, but they do not
thoroughly cover the nation, as
provincial boards do in Canada,
After the censor boards come the
various pressure groups that at-
tempt to interfere with films. The
largest and most notorious pres-
lure group Is the Catholic League
of Decency, and it is this orEaniza^
tion that has helped to give the
Catholic Church in America a bad
name iu authoritarian interference
with public thought.
The League of Decency uses the
powerful and effective method of
theatre boycott. The League rates
films, and suggests all Catholic;

ing to the rating. Most Hollywood
movie makers say that the "C"
rating (condemned) rnean^ box
would give the "C^ rating to the
film in the United States.
Locally, we remember the animal-
lovers' howl of protest that drove
THE BRAVE BULLS out of a local
art house. We wonder how many
of these same animal-lovers are
protesting about the fight between
man and bull In the now-current
QUO VADIS? In this less delicate
or sensitive film, we hear the sup-
posed sound of the bull's neck be^
ing broken by powerful Christian
slave Buddy Baer. Perhaps it is
a matter of whether bull-fighting
is a Mexican spoi-t, or a battle for
Christian Survival in a Roman

put this ruling has not been in-

recent years: against comic joke 1

in Brantford, with Toronto book
tritics among those testifying on
the novel's literary and sociological
merits. The attempt to ban or con- ,

casions, and neither provincial nor
local authorities have attempted '
bool; or periodical censorship since
that time. This is not true foi all
provinces, Quebec, for example, has
L more rigid yardstick to manipu-

The major book censor in Can-
ada is the Department of National
Revenue, as Blair Fraser pointed
out in his Maclean's Magazine
article Of December. 19*9. Under
Article 1201 of the Customs Tariff
the Minister of Nationa^l
Revenue is directed to exclude any-
thing "treasonable or' Seditious or

As a result. Fraser rfevealed, 505
books were on the Canadian banned
list in 1949. The Revenue Depart-
inent does not have to and does not
publicize this list, or give reasons
lor any book banning. Although

Suddenly it disappeared from the

" The comment made at that

shelves. According to Blair Fraser, ' - e
the novel was banned in May 1949
by personaj order of the Revenue
Minister, J. j. McCann himself.
UntQ last fall, The Naked and the
Dead was on the banned list.
The rea«on lor the temporary
banning of the Mailer novel was
reportedly the certain "marked
passages" that Dr. McCann said he
wouldn't want his daughter <he
hasn't any) to read. But consider-
ing the pressure which was sudden-
ly and belatedly brought to bear
upon the Minister, some people
suggest that the violent anti-war
theme rather than the sex may
have been the actual cause of the
prohibition. There is no way of
pinning this down, of course, since
book censorship is hidden behind
a secret veil.
Logic and consistently have little
to do with book censorship. Tobacco
Road, the most famous Erskine
Caldwell novel, was on the banned
list and yet easily available in Can-
ada. This was because a Canadian
edition was published and it does !
not come under customs surveillance
Stopping an American edition in
this case only seems to be economic
protectionism. Many other novels
have undergone the same experi-
ence.
In the meantime, recent Ameri-
can novels have t>rought emancipa-
tion to the ultimate four-letter sex
word. James Jones' rough, tough
From Here to Eternity, and J- D.
Sahnger's sensitive The Catcher in
the Rye threw aside all previous
inhibitions, and the censor's finger
in the ban dike now seems futile.
With this new XreedCMm, all rulings
against books on grounds of "ob-
scenity" (and who can actually de-
fine that term?) need revision. It
may be in the van of these new
novds that Edmund Wilson's
Memoirs of Hectate County has
come off the banned Ust and sud-
denly appeared in Toronto book-
stores this year.
In connection with the new
emancipation of Anglo-Saxon words
In recent best-seUers, one observer
suggests that the customs censor
does not try to hold up any book
club choices. Both the Jones and
Salinger novels were club selections.
If a ban was clamped on a club
choice, the censor would face an
outcry which could be canied to
the courts, since the publishers and
the clubs have much capital invest-
ed in their choices. That is also
why. suggests this observer. Droll
Stories or Ttotsky's Chapters From
My Diary are still on the banned
list, no publisher would find it
worthwhUe to contest the censor's
ruling on those less popular works.
Public Indifference and departmen-
tal inertia combine to keep most
books oji the list.
But another and perhaps more
dangerous reason seems to be
behind some book banning, In-
stead of "Obscenity" or "sedi-
tion", the real reason often-
seems to be "sacrUege". T'Sac-
rilege" is not in the statutes.) Bal-
zac's DroU Stories are ribald tales
with a sixteenth century settUig.
They are closely akin to the stories
in The Colden Ass of Apuleius or
The Decameron of Boccaccio, also
classics which have been attacked
by militant prudes. The language
in Droll Stories 1* never crude and
the literary quality is high. Yet this
book is excluded while franker-
mouthed new novels enter freely.
While The Naked and The Dead

God and man, written by American
satirist Charles Erskine Scott Wood.
This book has been available in
Canada at recurring times in the
now defunct American Penguin
edition. There Is no libidinous sex
in these essays, only wry or bitter
comment on how earthly beings
pervert the teachings of Christ and
the ways of God. In Canada.
Heavenly Discourse was originally
banned in 1927 by a church group
which called it "irreverent and
blasphemous". On this score, Scott
Wood himself says in his introduc-
tion:
"Blasphemy is a matter of re-
ItgioQS opinion, just as democracy
and freedom are questions of
political opinion, and opinion —
religious or political — is not yet
a crime. I am eager to have the
'irreverence' shown me. Rever-
ence is not due to crowns or halos
— heavenly or earthly — bet to
purity of spirit, greatness of soal,
and goodness of deed."
Censors are not complete agres,
judgment. But more important, as
public officials, censors aj-e strong-
ly subject to pressiue groups, And
in a secret censorship syf-tem. pres-
sure groups find it much easier to
get things done.
There are three main opinions on
censorship. One is insistence on
censorship. Another is completely
opposed to censorship. Both these
opinions are held by small groups.
The third opinion is the most popu-
lar. It comes from tlie vaguely in-
different mass, members of whom
fed. when asked directly, that some-
how censorship - is necessary. After
all, everyone isn't intelligent or edu-
cated, somebody must protect them.
This vast Indifference has e^sed
censorship into the strong position
it holds. So to protect the children
and feeble-minded, LA RONDE and
Droll Stories are kept from the
adults. We forget easily that the

called a free and easy fashion. This
gang busting style manged to keep
the referees busy on the whistle end
of the game— they handed out an
average of six fouls a quarter. T^ie
score at the end of the first half
provided proof positive of the type
of game being played; the Maroons
led 7-6.
The next quarter saw a definite
upswing in the playing calibre and
saw Varsity take over the lead for
the fh-st time. In the last quarter
the girls began to get into the swing
of things with some fine checking
on both sides, but Mac managed to
puU ahead of the Blues thanks to
the sharpshoofcing of Barb Ross and
at the end of the final whistle the
score read 20-16 for the
HamUtonians.
Barb Ross provided the highlight
of the evening with her long shots
netting 15 points for the victors
while Claire McMuUen chalked up
six for the Varsity gals. Outstand-
ing *n defence were Carmein Taylor
for Mac and Jean Martin lor the
Blues.
On the Senior side of the pictiure
the outlook was much brighter as
the Blue gals proceeded to run a
hard fighting Mac squad ragged
with their lightning like passes and
d"^Qg shots. ,
Varsity led all the way with the
score reading IB - 6 at the end of
the half. The Blues really poured
it on in the last half netting 24
points to Macs 6.
Alma Hatch played ber usual
sterling game, hooping 12 points in
a razzle dazzle fashion which had
the Mac guards shaking their heart
in wonder. Freshie Shirley Roberi

self both offensively and defensii
while Mary Macdonald and

There were three varied basket-
ball games recorded on the intra-

a close win, a one-sided win and a
tie.
The' one-sided win came in the
major's group one; St. Mike's
Seniors trounced Sr. UC. 52-29. The
Mikemen went ahead 12-2 in the
opening minutes but the Red men
closed the gap to 20-14 by the end
of the period. Prom there on in

piled on the points. Bob Warne and
Fran O'Connor scored fifteen apiece
to spark St. Mike's uneven victory,
In the close game Trinity dropped

The winning basket came with ten

Junior Vic Wins
Upset St. Mike's
With 2-1 Victory
Junior Vic ousted St. Mike's A
from interfacuity hockey yesterday
with a 2-1 upset victory. The Vic-
sters went ahead 2-0 in the lirst
period and hung on to their lead
despite the Mlkemen's best efforts.
Mason scored from Bond and
Jardine at the six minute mark to
give Vic their early lead. Then
after several dangerous ruslies by
St. Mike's Hinder scored from a
scramble with one minute and 10
seconds left in the period. The only
reason St. Mike's didn't score wa
Burnett who played sensational^
in the Vicsters' nets.
At the start of the second the
Mikemen once more turned on the
pressure. It finally paid off with a
goal 'by Cole from Duffy at the 6:50
mark of the period.
Harwich hit Copeland of Vic with
a vicious check. Seconds later Har-
wich cross-checked Copeland and
was thumbed into the sin-bin, He
didn't like the decision and started
swinging at referee Bowden
tossed him out of the game.
The Mikemen yanked their goalie
for the last faceoff but as they
were shorthanded it was no use to
them. Grossi, St. Mike's goalie was
outstanding for his tesmi, stopping
enany tagged shots. Dale looted
good for Vic both on defence hd**

■agWpMS Show
^U-Varsiiy Revue
By JACK GRAT
P or three things stick in my
d aftei' seeing last night's per-
ml^aoce of Xhc All Varsity Re-
for 1952. One is that you in-
'tai)ly ge*- ^ beter show when
^ (.^n draw on talent from the
^jje campus, rather than from
g litniteti sphere of a college or
cuHy- ^ second is the very
iP^ant recollection of seeing sev-
^] (aces I have noticed before
jg year, performers who have
j,j^ased very much their ability
entertain since they first hit
,e boards at Toronto.
j'm not clawing away at the
desarus looking for superlatives
jtrew in producer Jim Guthro's
jsth. but I don't think there is" any
.gument about the fact that The
Varsity Kevoe is the best cam-
j show this year. Particularly
the first half it had the things
J look for in a Revue — the more
less impertinent survey of con-
emporary events, pace, bright-
,g5S, wit and good humor,
in a few lines, ni get around to
ome of the things I didn't like,
lut first the bouquets.
A good big one goes to the orch-
slra. one of the best I've heard at
campus show in three years,
ind a special part of that goes to
rumpeter Harry Hamilton for his
rork in Ellington in Coloor. The
Fork done by Dave Powrie on the
let design was excellent. His sets
or Philosophy on the Open Mar-
:et, Afro-Cuban Rites and Varsity
Bki Lodge were the best. And while
I'm out flower-gathering I think
special mention is In order for
wo individuals, Patricia McDon-
ougb and Bob Jackson, both of
whom turned in outstanding per-
ormances.
Jackson, whom I seem to remem-
ber first in a Vic show last year,
has become a fine entertainer,
ith a sure sense of timing and the
ridiculous. His little piece on the
lecturer (Lecture Hazards) was
better than its companion piece
on the student. -but both were fun-
ny and well done. Jackson has
improved each time I've seen him.
1£ he still has some time to put in
and continues to get better at next
Sear's All Varsity Revue he'll have
toem weeping in the aisles.
Miss McDonough, who popped
P ifl St. Mike's Good News last
turned in two character
Heces which I liked. By far the
toughest was her assignment In
The Freshette Blues where for
nothing at all she created a very
amusing performance.
The 1952 version of the AVE op-
ened with a bang and whooped its
way through to the intermission.
I'm not quite sure what happen-
ed after that, but in the second
half the show lost much of the pace
and drive that gave it its initial
punch. The first half alone was
worth the price of your ticket.
SegQstraifsn Day exhumed
couple of tunes I seem to recall
hearing before. But with some
new and revised lyrics it had life
and gaiety.
The skits in this year's AVR
were uneven. Probably the best
was PhUosophy on the Open Mar-
ket, written by Bert Stone and dt-
rected by Ben Wise. Philosophy
and civic government and horse
racing all came in for a ribbing
One thing that tiiis. and other
AVR skits had. which campus
shows generally have lacked this
year, was quite a bit of topical
humor. It went over well. Good
performances were turned in here
by Jack Weisdorf and Dave Arm-
strong.
The Lad With The Push Cart.
written and directed by Bill
Preedman. almost turned out to
be a startling satire of Christo-
pher Fry's Boy With A Cart. But
not quite. It started well, but
Freedman lost his original motive
somewhere in the first few lines,
and it went to pieces. Honorable
mention in the Brave-Try-Divi-
sion.
Jim Guthro's Peter Piper Paper
Picker had some good moments,
but was pulling some of its gags
off the bathroom floor. Special
Event, scripted by Stone and di-
rected by Wise, had its moments
too. but like Pasli Cart it gets
relegated to the Brave-Try cir-
cle.
A large part of this year's AVR
was the two production numbers,
Afro-Cuban Rites, and EUington
in Color. In both numbers there
was imagination and an attempt
to try and get above the usual
college show production number
level. But neither was a success,
Rites was in two parts. Primitive
and Mambo. I think Cynthia Bar-
rett is giving a college show too
much to handle in her choreogra-
phy Although there was some fine
dancing from Arline Patterson and
Francis ChatkSn. the meaning of
the movement got garbled and the
effects were soon lost. I think this
same criticism can be levelled at
the Ellington number, although
It came through more clearly. The
best fart in both numbers was the
music, and particularly Chester
Smith's scoring of the Ellington.
On upsetting thing was the cos-
tumes. We have seen some excel-
lent costume work recently in
campus shows, but the AVR cos-
tumes suffered in almost every
number where they were import-
ant. Among things that might be
watched in future are materials, to
suit the purpose, and color. Some
of the color combinations were un-
holy.
People that should be mention-
ed: Judy Godfrey, for the Ladder
throw-In; Gerry Reding, who turn-
ed in a lot of music and a pile of
lyrics, some of it good, some of it
bad — too nTiich leaning on the bal-
lad side; Syd Weingartner for his
outstanding rendition of the Phi-
losophy song; Bob Gordon for a
much-improved piano routine; and
stage manager Mike Thompson
and his assistant John Soulsby
who kept the backstage wheels oil-
ed. There was also a chorus line
which the audience loved— but it
wasn't that good.
This year's AVR had its share
of trouble before the campus fin-
ally got a chance to look at it.
I'm glad we did. It stands as the
best argument for continuing the
All Varsity Revue in years to come.
It is a production, which in spite
of the rough edges, producer Jim
Guthro and his large cast can well
be proud of — and certainly the best
of this year's crop of college shows.

Calamity Jane
Pays Off
Last night we saw a real campus show — not to be con- ,
fused with all the college and faculty revues which des-
cended upon the campus in the pre-Christmas blizzard. For
the All-Varsity Revue contained more oi the verve and vig-
our of college life than any show we have seen this year.
Perhaps we doubly enjoyed the show because it near-
ly didn't come off- this year at all. And after last year's Feb-
ruary blank, we had begun to look forward to an all "Varsity
effort with a special enthusiasm.
However, the quality of most of the other campus shows
this .year filled us with grave mi.sgivings as to the AVR. How
eould the campus produce one more original show, when it
had been such an effort (in some cases, a rather wasted
©ne) to keep the college revues going?
In da'rker moments, we wondered whether the AVR
wouldn't be wiser to collect the best material (admittedly it
would have had to be rewritten) from the other college
Bhovv.s. At least, the scripts and cast would have been at the
producer's finger tips.
However, the Doubting Thomas in us has been silenced.
. D(>spite its unevenness in quality, the AVR had more sparkle
and wit than most of the other revues combined. Somehow
it managed to gather together much of the liveliness, and es-
pecially satire, that we have missed in the other campus
•hows.
At this point we will stop poaching on our reviewer's
territory. For us, the really important thing about the AVR
is that at last it seems to stand a chance of becom'"'^" a cam-
pus institution.
Within all the eddying whirl of extra-curricular activity,
we would like to see the AVR become a rock of tradition
■omewhere well in the middle of the stream. And shows of
the calibre of this year's AVR, will help to make it an indis-
pensable part of undergraduate life.
ISS SsmSnar
Via Media
Crrav^boat to India
The foJIowing article by Harold Nelson presents some
penetrating criticism of the proposed India seminar. The
opinions expressed are not necessarily those of The
Varsity.
In a recent column in "The Globe and Mail", Mr. Frank
Tumpane suggests that the peculiar phenomenon of the
hatless student is an example of the unrevolutionary spirit
of the university undergraduate. Referring to a Varsity edi-
torial this fall, which complained of the rampant conservat-
ism on the campus, he pointed out that the modern student
was even too conservative to revolt from his revolutionary
hatlessness. Even the pressure of cold weather could not make
iiim cover his brow — like the rest of the citizenry.
Perhaps if Mr. Tumpane had had more opportunity to
^serve campus inhabitants he would have been struck by
the number of ear muffs which appear in profusion with the
•lightest downward flicker of the nearest thermometer.
No one has yet attempted to assess the significance of
the undergraduate earmuff. We wonder, however, whether
this is not a perfect symbol of the via media. The contempor-
ary undergraduate is not just too conservative to revolt
against revolt. Rather he adopts a compromise in the ear-
muff; in this way he avoids the more basic issue of hats or
AO hats.
"Oh, to be in India
Now that the monsoon is there.'*
(With apolog:ics to Robfrt Browning)
Tiie latest word around the University is that
the International Student Service (or World Uni-
versity Sei-vice) is planning to send 40 Canadians
to a seminar in India this summer. That is pro-
vided WUS can find $55,000 for the seminar.
Apparently eveiy student who feels he stands a
chance at being accepted is applying for the trip.
And why shouldn't they apply? Just think what
a marvelous experience it would be to fly to India,
meet strange i^eople, eat strange tfood, get strange
diseases. Wow!
The best part of the whole trip is that the
luoky applicants won't feel that they have been
sent on meftiey obtained from their poor fellow stu-
dents who have given up movies or beer to save
- 'oney for Asian Aid. WUS officials plan to raise
.e necessary $6Di000 by asking donations from
business men.
However this raises the minor question of why
any hard-headi;ti businessman would give WUS
money to send ii grpup of university students to
India. One of the reasons why the businessmen
will be asked to {;ive is apparent in the WUS ex-
planation that $G5.000 is less money than it costs
to train a fighter pilot! India is teetering between
Communism and democracy at present — if 40
Canadian students from a middle-of-the-road
democracy go to India it may help to swing the
balance in our favor. Therefore tlie hard-headed
businessmen can look at their donations for the
seminar in the light of the money being an in-
vestment in the fight against Communism.
This is a fine wav to raiae funds, but it pro-
vides a poor background for a seminar aimed at
encouraging understanding.
When the students apply to go to India, they
will be asked why tliry want to go on the seminar.
This question and the companion question why
should the students be sent, are the $65,000 ques-
tions. The answers submitted to the judges should
be interesting, especially to nn ethics professor.
If the students are honest, the first answer most
of them will give is that it would be a grand trip.
This might be called the i)ractical reason for
wanting to go.
Another answer which most applicants will give,
and a few will give honestly, is thai they want to
know more about India for the sake of peace,
brotherhood, or some other ideal. This they, will
hope to obtain by spending' four weeks in a
try where only the better educated persons
speak English and where they will live in ^
which will have an atmosohere completely f
to that of India-
The judges, when considering the appUt^a,-
will have a tough time deciding how sincere
dents are in giving an idealistic reason Icr w "
ing to go to India. Most of the applicant^ wlii'^i!]
influenced by both practical and idealistic reas
in applying. Another problem which the jud
should consider is whether the students appiJ^
for the seminar are capable of benefitting fr"^
the month in India. Very few students on this"""
any other Canadian campii are capable of the ohl
jective mature approach needed to compare t
cultures as different as that of India from o*
One can only guess at what effect the student
going on the seminar will have when thsy retii
to Toronto. Most likely they will be much
vociferous in telling the campus about India'
problem and explaining her difficulties than S
Indian students at Toronto have been. In fo,,
weeks they will be able to abstract general
ciples about India and Indians which will not ha
cluttered with the complications that would ;
from a study over a longer period of time.
One will be able to tell a student who has return
ed from India by his cheerful greeting in soml
quaint Indian dialect, his habit of moaning
dian songs, while drinking, and his passion fo:
sitting cross-legged around the campus spinnui"
wool. Some seminarites may not go to these i "
tremes. but there are always a few non-con-
formists in any crowd.
The normal, unfortunate stay-at-homes will
pass the seminarit* by and tolerantly explain to
strangers "he's an Indophile, went to India, you
know. Never been the same since."
This might be an exaggerated picture of the re-
sults of a seminar, but, like most statements there
are elements of truth in it. Because most of th^
students "go overboard" for the land in which
they are studying, their statements tend to sound
as one-sided as a Pravda report of the Korean
War. This apparent lack of objectivity colors every
statement they make and as a result it is ques-
tionable what kind of influence they exeit on the
campus.
But like good Christian gentlemen, nothing can
dismay them. And so a bon voyage to India, And
don't forget your copy of Pogo.

Editor, The Varsity:
I have plenty of work to do
without taking time off to write
letters to The Varsity, but when
I came across Miss Endicott's
article entitled "'Class Educa-
tion and Critical Thinkers", I
came to the conclusion that Miss
Endicott was not only unreason-
ably critical but not a thinker —
I was just a wee bit fed up
with the old "party line." If
Miss Endicott didn't realize
that the President of our uni-
versity had stressed the non-
lucrative education in the human-
ities in his speech only be-
cause the humanities were not
being balanced with the "prac-
tical" courses, she has missed
the whole point of Mr. Smith's
address. I suggest that she re-
read, or probably read, at least
a few good articles on this con-
troversial speech.
Certainly we are told that we
have, and we do have a respon-
sibility to the community as a
whole, and some knowledge of
the humanities is necessary if
we are able to make our best
possible contributions to the de-
velopment of our society. But
here Miss Endicott asks "how
can one be successful in one's
job and still be responsible to
the community?" Has Miss En-
dicott got a one-irack mind or
does she think that everyone
else in a capitalistic society
has? Perhaps l have been
lucky, but I have never met a
person, especially not in the
competitive "dog-eat-dog" fields
of business who didn't have at
least some genuine Interest In
the welfare of the rest of the
people in the community. The
two million dollar surplus over
the T.G.H. fund-raising cam-
paign objective is proof of a
widespread humanitarian feel-
ing in Toronto alone, and don't
tell me that the sick are the only
people who receive any sympa-
thy. The much-criticized mo-
nopolies and exclusion politics
ot big business are only one as-
pect of our capitalistic system.
The abuses are few in com-
parison with the co-operation of
the "helping hand" policies
among the majority of business
men who gave rise to the big
corporations which have been
largely responsible for the es-
tablishment in the United States,
for example, of the best standard
of living in the world today. Rus-
sia included — way down on the
list. Miss Endicott quotes
Karl Marx to illustrate the
"dog-eat-dog" aspect of capital-
ism. More poeple read the
Bible which says: "Love thy
neighbour as thyself", a creed
better to follow than any econ-
omic cure-all theory.
Financial status is not made
the criterion for entering Uni-
versity either. Nor is it be-
cause "those who come from
the higher income groups will
be less critical of the import-
ant institutions in our society"
that we must pay fees to the
University. A ridiculous idea
if I have ever heard one. Does
Miss Endicott not know about the
scholarships, bursaries and the
college loans which are rather
liberally handed out to deserv-
ing students? Not every stu-
dent with a good academic
standing can get one of these yet,
but I'm willing to bet that we
will have university education
free, with academic standing as
the only criterion as soon as, if
not sooner than could be brought
about by a change in our social
system which might be in the
form ot Communism , and all
this without revolution. Kom-
rades. I myself am working
my way through coUege, hav-
ing a good time and getting
plenty out ol my course, all
because our good old capitalis-
tic system provides me with a
good job every summer — no
pull. If a prospective univer-
sity student is really "deserv-
ing" he'll find a way to go to
college without too much troub-
le.
Aa an alternative to a radical
change in our social system
Miss Endicott suggests that in-
stead of continuing in Canadi
the present cold war and iinii-
Soviet feeling. Canada and all
the other countries disarm aod
prosper upon peace-time indus-
try. Professor Lome Morgan's
pamphlet "The Permanent War

DEFEAT STATE MORAL CONTROL
Warden Supports Nays
As Government Tumbles
Hart House debaters decided last night that the
State should not be responsible for the morals of its
Citizens. The motion was defeated by a vote of
33 to 18.
Speaker Elmer Sflpha later described the debate
es very good with a fine serious tone throughout
Warden Ignatieff of Hart House spoke to the
House for the Opposition '■breaJcing a custom ot
Ions standing", as he himself described his action
The Warden described the traditional character
of his office as being "cloaked in absolute objec-
tivity — a sc^t of sphinx-like objectivity which
holds no opinions on any matter of public con-
cern".
Warden Ignatieff stated that "Public concOTi
With the mere externals of morality and legisla-
tions can only deepen the illusion that people
are moral, offer false security and protect and
perpetrate hypoa"isy".
'■In any advanced society morality is primarily
a concern of the individual conscience," Ignatieff ■
said. "Too much interference by public regulation
or dependence on the morals of Society as a whole
only leads to Uie deepening uf the gulf between
Law and mores on one hand and actual liuman
behaviour on the other".
In moving the resolution, John Barton, Trin.,
stated that we are "livirig in a lark age, an age
£)f moral decline and corruption".
Discussing corruption in governments Barton
pointed to "The maelstrom of matted mink to the
south". Barton asited members to be aware of "the
signs of a coon coat capital to the north" alsp.
and suggested that th&r? is corruption in the
Canadian government as well. He quoted dishon-
esty in the Liquor Control Board of Ontario, "one
of the vilest forms of corruption".
Barton stated that the modern church no longer
governs the maals of the majority. "The State
is the only potentlaUy effective organ (for govern-
ing public morality, that we have," he added
Guest speaker Rev. Emlyn Davies of Yc.kminster
fu^ l ^J""^"^ stated that "there is confusion of
thought between the rightneas of action and the
morality of the individual". A person may be
legally and morally innocent under our present
system, he added.
A Prime Minister may take the responsibility
lor practices. Davies said, "but no Prime Minister-
can be morally responsible for anyone"
State responslbUlty for public morals' leads to
the "behttling of the Individual". Davies stated
'•No man can be good unless he has the freedom
to be evil," he said.
"We are moral ohitdreo," said Dave Gauthler,
n UC, speaking for the resolution. "The State
must help us until we are morally mature " ha
added.
Morry Kertzer. Law. stated that "moral judg-
ment IS relative to the particular situation" and
as such cannot be effectively controlled by the
State.
"The GovernmcDt of Canada has neither the
right nor the power to infringe on the liberty of
thought and feelhig," Kertzer concluded.
"The nature of morality is influenced by the
social climate", said Reg. Taylor, grad, "To the
extent that the State can control the social climate,
I think it is fan- to say that it should." he ndded.
P. Giles, Trin.. called morality an entirely indi-
vidual affair based on motive. If the State con-
trols ethics "a man is neither moral nor immoral
— he is amoral," he said.
An earlier resolution asking the House to send
a letter of sympathy to the royal family and
one of congi-atulations to Hev;" iWajesty, Queen
Elizai)eth, was carried unanimously.
The Vic Men's Common Room (top) is rapidly approaching the condi-
tion of the Junior Common Room (bottom) as it appeared last year
When it was closed for a week, but the JCR is again trying for the

Seek Applicants
For Next Editor
Applications are being accepted lylng out the various departmental
today in the Women's SAC office,
University College, for next year's
editor of The Varsity. Any student,
graduate or undergraduate, in at-
tendance at the University may ap-
ply. However, the constitution of
tlie Students' Administrative Coun-
cil suggests that applicants should
have worked on The Varsity for
three tenms prior to application.
According to the SAC constitu-
tion, the editor is personally re-
sponsible for every aspect of the
paper. "In fact, this means simply
that the editor must choose a
masthead whloh Is capable of car-
responsibllltles", said Varsity Ed
iter Barbara Browne. "No one per.
I son can check every item and every
headline every day", she added.
"More directly. Uie editor is re-
sponsible for the editorial pago—
it is his or her special interest.

does not do all the actual work,"
she said.

and as co-ordinator of all depart-
ments, the editor is responsible for

One of tlie main topics of dis-
cussion at Edlnbuigh was the Stu-

aid to underdeveloped countries.
For example, the British National
Union of Students is sending a team
of experts in student affairs to
give advice to students In West
Africa.
At Edinburrh, NFCUS was man-
dated to investigate tlie pos,sibiUtr

union, was designed to set up a
Pan-American student union. Wax

Laval University was the Issue of
Quebec Seminary which was found-
ed in 1663 by the first bishop of
New France, Msgr. de Laval. Teach-
ing at the university level, how-
ever, dates back to 1640, when stu-
dents at the Jesuit CoUege bean
their studies ttiere. It was recog-
nized as a civil Institution on De-
cember 8. 1852, when it was grant-
ed a Royal Charter by Queen Vic-
toria
Harvard University, which was

It Is only natural to feel skeptic when ap-
proacliing QUO VADIS (Loews). The publicity
has been overwhelming and the critics have also
emphasized that this is the colossal-est of them
all; that it Is the most expensive film made <$7
million), and other awesome, frightening things.
In the Ught of all this hullaballoo, my review
of QUO VADIS Is in the nature of a minority re-
port. It stlnkB all the way through ol money. The
two leading principals stink without having any
connection with money. The story is corny and
ponderously overbearing. But I liked QUO VADIS
very much.
For one thing, the gigantic, lavishly-poured- on
spectacles are exciting to the eye. And even more,
unhke most previous spectacles, they are integral
parts of the stor>'. So when Marcus Vicinius
(Robert Taylor) and legions of soldiery march
into Rome to accept Nero's accolades, the big
sweep of thousands of estra.s filling the huge
square ail makes sense. The burning of Rome is
even better. Technicolor's gaudy redness is used
to advantage here. One shot of the milling faces
of the panicky mob is a swhling impressionistic
triumph. And the climactic Roman circus when
the Cliristians are offered up as sacrifices to
Nero's lust is a rich dose of violence, bestiality
and terror. You just alnt seen nothing like it.
Because the MGM production staff has thrown
the whole kettle of mulligan stew at you, the
lavishness tends to drown out the human actors.
In the case of Robert Taylor and Deborah Kerr
as the barbaric Roman officer and the Christian
slave who makes a new man out of him, these
two were not drowned out enough. Woodenly they

One of the brighter moments in this year's All
Varsity Revue, Jady Godfrey, III U.C., is seen

But matchijig the hammy production pound lop

Nero, Ustinov rolls his eyes, quivers his nostrife
hps, chin, and even sings terribly in a masierfm'
performance. Even among a thousand extras
Ustinov^s exaggerated acting stands out. '
In fact, the strength of QUO VADIS that heipj
you excuse its excesses, is the predominantly
British supporting Cast. Leo Genn Is the smtjoii]
wily, intelligent Petronius. In his Roman cloat
and toga, he is as urbane as if he were in
study clothed in pipe and smoking Jacket. Oeim
has some of the best lines (and there is wit. too
In this grab-bag of MGM millions). Hia death-
bed (?) oration is a bright speech that makes you
prl<dc up your mental ears. This is welcome at thfj
stage of the film, since your ears had early given
way to the steady assailing of your otitic sense.
rinlay Currie is a huge Scottish version of the
Big Fisherman, Peter. Abraham Sofaer is a
gentle ingratiating Paul of Tarsus. Buddy Baer
is a huge, muscular Christian buU-kUler. Peiij
Aylmer (Polonius In HAMLET), Nora Swinburne
(the mother in THE RIVeB), Noitnan Wooland
(HAMLET'S Horatio) are others present.

AdrJenne Corl, who was one of the three adoles-

just before they go into the arena to get the
works from a pack of hungry lions. ( If you
thought FABIOLA was exciting in its arena scenes,

In Technicolor hi QUO VADIS.)
For some strange reason, perhaps the Sliake-
spearlan influence in our lives, the British accents -
of Ustinov, Genu and company sound much more
authentic as Roman or Christians, than the flat
Midwestern twang of hero Taylor. Taylor i;
nice-looking guy all right and he tabes the whole
thing very seriously but somehow you e:rpect him
to lead the women westward or some such thing
any minute,
The other weakness besides the two principab
is the ^unimaginative and saccharine treatment
given to the scene of religious symbolism with
-Peter and the boy Nazarius and the message from
God. The final scene with Peter's staff flowering
is of the same key. We are reminded of the
ludicrous dresshig-up given to Ave Maria wlilch
marred Disney's FANTASIA, an otherwise excit-
ing experiment.
In the threeJiom- length of QUO VADIS, the
dull corny bits about Christianity winning out
constitute only a small part. The rest is bar-
baric bravado, and suits anyone in a circus mood.
And even in the Roman arena the Christian slave
overpowers the bull to put the skids under Nero.
It is strength and brutality not sweetness and
light that wins out for the Christians.
There is no getting away from it, along with its
$7 million of colossal ch-cus, QUO VADIS moltes
a satiric comment about mankind so far. Without
reaJizmg it. of course. It's an engrossing and eB-
tertamhig film.

of Hart House Theatre, yesterday.
Gill is using the Elizabethan idea
of a permanent set. and the cur-
tain will be open from the time
the audience enters the theatre un-
til the end of the play.
Gill hopes that his technique
will achieve Intimacy between the
audience and the players, as It
did in Shakespeare's day. The
set, designed by Jean Bannihr, who
did the set for "A Phoenix Too
Frequent" this fall, "approaches
and equals the Elizabethan stage",
GUI said, and uses the balcony
structure.

extremely difficult because of the
complexity of the set. GiU said
that an Elizabethan set was al-

cause of a stage direction in the

RAM ARKRISHN AN
The Gentleman Stayed
By ADELE KRRHIM
In 1948, a young economics lec-
turer at Madras University, India,
was awarded a scholarship. John
Ramarkrishnan came to Canada
for one year ol postgraduate study
with Uie aid of the Vincent Massey
Scholarship but found he needed
at least two years to complete re-
quirements for a Ph.D.
He decided to take another M.A..
thLs time at the University of To-
ronto. In 1950 he was given the S.
Hillman Memorial Award. At tlie
same time Ramarkrishnan was ap-
pointed as an assistant in the de-
partment of Economics for one
year.
In India, university students
have fewer privileges than Cana-
dians but nevertheless work hard-
noted Ramarkrishnan. There,
tiiey are imbued with a strong
Ben^e of nationalism and have a
desire to build up their country, he
idded.
Hamarkrlshium is a Christian but
he found little religious intoler-
ance in South India. The only in-
tolerance in the predominantly
Hindu country, is in the northern
part where difficulties arise from
political and economic differences.
Ramarkrishnan was bom in Madras
*here his father is minister of a
t^urch of South India. This
Church Is unique In that It is a
^on of Anglicans. Methodists,
"esbyterlana and Congregation- ,
aUsts.
"Throughout hlstopf you can see
5e are not a warlike people and
wthough the British have praised
"Kiian troops, we have never tried
RAMARKRISHNAN
to conquer another country for over
2,000 years," commented Ramar-
lu'lshnan.
He has noted several distinguish-
ing features of Canadian and In-
dian University students. When a
student finishes high school here,
he has a better grasp of the dif-
ferent branches oi study and a
more practical outlook on life.
Canadian students are not book
worms but can worlc hard and work
themselves up In the world. In
Canada a student can even work
his way through college, lie said.
However, in India, when a stu-
dent graduates from ^Igh school,
he is "at sea" and has no practical
grasp of the world. Those who are
fortunate enough to have the mon-

ey, can continue their education,
but those who cannot afford it
go into clerical work. High school
graduates are none too eager to do
unskilled labor because there are
so many uneducated people to pro-
vide cheap labor.
An lunftTiIng amount of leader-
ship arises from Indian girls in
political groups. At present there
is a wo<nan holding the post of
vice-chancellor (president) of a
university; an ambassadress; a
woman holding a portfolio In the
federal government and one wom-
an as governor of a province. Un-
educated women In India are far
behind the woinen of Canada, how-
ever.
Ramarkrishnan mentioned one
way in which the students try to
build up the country. Practical
girls' groups go to the small
lages to aid the poor. These girls
wash the babies, teach the mothers
health and hygiene, and teach
them to read and write. They even
teach the women how to make
themselves more presentable to
their husbands.
This year Ramarkrishnan was
awarded the Warren K. Cook Fel-
lowship. He is primarily interested
m teaching econo»nics at an Indian
University but may go into govern-
ment work which needs trained
men, John Ramarkrishnan hopes
to complete his thesis on industrial
relations this year so that he can
go home as soon as possible and
help to build up his country.

The title role in Richard n was
the most difficult to cast, GiU
said, because of the growth and
development of the character, who
only gradually, through adversity,
achieves the kingly characteris-
tics he should have had from the
beginning.
The entire sequence concerning
the Duchess of York and the Duke
of Aumerle (Act IV. scene I) has
been cut. Gill said, for drama-
ticaUy structural reasons. He ex-
plained that this scene is rarely
performed, both because of the

sub-plot is irrelevant to the maia

The Council wUl have at least
three separate resolutions on the
question of annexation of the Suez

The French delegate to the

UBC SUICIDES
Milton Revamped
In the interest of the University of Toronto's much
discussed remedial English classes The Varsity is reprint-
ing the following column from The Ubyssey.
As expected, the usual num-
ber of students flunked English
200 this year. The main reason
why students take the count on
English 200 is their Inability to
master Parad'ise Lost, Johnny
Milton's long-winded epic.
In other years this fact has not
bothered the hard-boiled (three
minutes) English department.
But this year after the Christmas
exams the department became
alightly troubled over the fact
that 67 boys let their razors slip
into their Adam's apples the
morning after receiving their
English marks.
They were slightly more dis-
turbed when 36 airls committed
suicide by drinking caf coffee
straight because their English
marks showed their respective
I.G.'s were lower than a dash-
hound's' belly.

Cheating Football Team
Once upon a time there wa^ an
educational institute called Heav-
en Tech. Now this college had a
pretty good football team, the
Angels. In fact, the Angels were
undefeated in the local universe
and had the loudest, most en-
thusiastic cheering section in the
neighborhood (can you imagine
3,000 rooters all playing "Hit
That Line" on their harps?).
Well, the team was sailing
along fine until the whole back-
field was caught cheating on
exams. The four, Satan, Belial,
Beelzebub and Mammcm, were
not only kicked off the team, but
their school sweaters were taken
away from them and they were
told their services would be no
longer required. The disgruntled
four immediately enrolled in the
University of Hell where the en-
trance exams were much easier.
Satan, the quarterback, calls
the team into a huddle and ex-
plains the situation. He suggests
an off-tackie smash at Earth.
The fullback. Beelzebub, gets up
on a soapbox and siiys it's going
to be a long, tough dash to Earth,
and asks who is going to have
enough courage to try. the brok-
en-field run.
Timing his cue well. Big Hero
Satan jumps up.
"I'll be the Lone Ranger."
quoth he, the buttons popping off
his shirt, "but on one condition:
no one else can volunteer now
that I am the fair-haired boy."
All the ex-Angel ewoon over
Satan's bravery.
"Oh, you big brave boy." they
scream, "going down to the
Earth, home of income tAxes,
Christmas exams, and doe gin,
all by your teensyweensy self.
Imagine that, and with Eve nm-
ning around down there clad in
a fig leaf original. How brave
can you get?"
Apple Salesman
Displaying his best Pepsodent
smile, Satan mounts his pitch-
fork and is off in a cloud of hell-
fire and brimstone. Landing in

lywood and Vine he spies with

have two cimracters jost about 'to
moon. They never reach their des-
dering around looking for a bar-
gain sale.
Satan takes Uie appearance of
A Serpent (using mirrors), and,
doing a dance that would put
Gypsy Rose Lee to shame, at-
tracts Eve's attention. He gives
her the pears about how good
those Okanagan apples on that
tree are. Eve, not realizing that
Satan is the original door to door
salesman, falls for his line. She
sinks her molars into an apple
and the Garden of Eden lights
up like the head pinball machine
in Harold's Club.

exactly, but pretty near), real-

Press Youth
To Support
Colombo Phn
Reverend Roy de Marsh urged
Canadian youth to write lel'crs to
the. government of Canada n.sking
the government to continup the
Colombo Plan. Rev. de Marsh ad-
dressed the Timely Topics group
at the Hillel Foundation last
niglit on the topic "South-east ■
Asia and India— a challenge."
"Canada's one year commit-
ment of ?25 million to the Colombo
Plan expires in March and it is
unrealistic to suppose the govern-
ment would appropriate another
commitment without knowing it
has the full support of the Cana-
dian people." said de Marsh.
Rev. de Marsh is the general
secretary of the Student Christian
Movement on the campus and \s
also the chairman of the'Co-ordin-
aling committee of Canadian
Youth Groups. The purpose of the
CCYG is to promote intergroup ac-
tivities on the campus.
The conditions in Asia are pro-
viding a basis for a social revolu-
tion Rev. de Mar.sh said. "The
object of this revolution is social
justice for a suffering people who
know that people in other parts
of the world are living in com-
fort", he added.
Communism has succeeded in
capturing and directing revolu-
Uons to its own ends in the past
50 years and today communism is
succeeding in saying the things
the people of Asia want to hear,"
commented Rev. de Marsh.
It was decided at this meeting
that the SCM and Hillel both ap-
point committees to investigate
the possibilities for working to-
gether and holding one joint meet-
ing each year to which they would-
invite some outstanding speaker
to address the groups.

could not be solved by
support to his worst tear aljout him
self, and only j[ he were to return
and pjck up a copy or The Viking
Portable Melville would he ever get
the impression that posterity was
emphasizing his pot-boilers and ad-
venture stories at the expense of
hts more important works.
Protesting that Moby Dick can be
purchased for 25c at any corner
store, the editor of The Viking Port-
able Melville has included only
Father Mapple's Sermon in his se-
lection and given the first 340
pages of this 750-paged anthology
to Melville-s early tale of adventure
among the cannibals, Typec. So,
too, the MelviUe Portable contains
more letters of the author in ques
tion to his friends than any Port-
able we've seen yet. These are fol-
lowed by the usual excerpts from
other works by the author,— in Mel-
ville's case, Bartelbv, The Confi-
dence Man, Israel Potter and the
long narrative poem Clarel are all
represented in part as well as some
of his poems; Most readers ■!\'i]l be
familiar with the Portables and will
have decided long ago whether or
not they liked the broad but piece-
meal seleection which this series of-
fers.
For onr part, we have always liked
our reading matter whole and this
probably accounts for the fact that
when we put down the Portable
Melville, the selections we remem-
bered were the ones that we had
been able to read complete Typee,
Hawthorne and his Mosses, and,
best of all, Billy Budd.
Billy Budd is the tale of a Hand-
some Sailor, an innqcent, unfallen
Adam on the H.MJS. Indomitable
whose active good-natmed inno-
cence makes liim the victim of mo-
tiveless malignity on the part of the
Master-at-Arms, Claggart. Clag-
gart, 'with no power to annul the
elemental evil in himself, accuses
Billy Budd of melting mutiny in
the presence of the ship's Captain.
And, even as Adam was imperfect
in his natural state and fell, so, too.
of Billy
a natural imperfection
Budd's, an occasional liabllitv to «
vocal defect' is the cause of Billys
■all. He becomes excited, and un-
able to protest his innocence vocal-
ly, strikes out with his fists at claE-
gart and kills him.
Billy Budd is shortly hanged al
the yard-arm for his fatal act of
violence and the rest of the storv i ,
taken up with the conflict in the
Captain's heart over the immcdi.ili
necessity to hang Budd in accord-
ance with Naval Law and his pei-
sonal awareness that Billy is of -ill
people on board ship the most in-
nocent of human be.ngs. Claggan
depraved according to nature, has
been struck dead bv an angel or

Here Melville's simple tale or Billv
Budd becomes a vehicle for present-
ing, the Christian parado.x and
analogously the expulsion of natur-
al depravity is only accomplished
through the cmcifixion or an inno-
cent over whose rate an undei-
standmg rather {the ship's Cap-
tain) is powerless. Readers who
pick up Billy Budd and fmd the
setting and tlie nautical terms un-
familiar and uninteresting will, if
they fmish the tale, appreciate Mel-
yilie's insistence that he -was not
just writing one more romance or
tale of some monumental hero, and
that he needed 'plenty of sea-room
to tell the truth in.'

Immigrant Returns
Cheering America
IMMIGRANT'S RETURN by Angelo M
Pelllgrini, MocMlllon Co., 1952, U-50.
In the fall of 1913. an Itahan
family of peasants clambered out
of the smelly hold of a freight ship
to be surrounded by a bewildering
huddle of immigration officers on
Ellis Island. Among them was little
Angelo Pellegrini, nine years old,
and to him everything in America
was unbelievable— from the ham-
and-eggs breakfast in New York to
the lumber cam,p near Seattle where
his father worked.
Thirty -six years later. Angelo
Pellegrini was again in New York,
this time leavbig for Italy. He was
now Professor Pellegrini of the
University of Washington and was
returning to the land of his birth
on a Guggenheim Fellowship.
The result of nine years' poverty
in Italy, thirty-six ?ears of obser-
vation and development in Ameri-
ca and a three month excursion
through his native land is a bio-
graphic look at both countnes
which ends In three cheers for
America, only two for Italy.
Pellegrini is not "troubled by a
feeUng of inferiority, (feeling) that
his humble origins are an obstacle
to the advancement of his own in-
terests". He has rather cultivated
the influences of his Italian herit-
age and blended them gratefully
with his "Americanization". Tlie
middle road attitude has given lum
the ability to estimate both ways o(
life with unusual objectivity
This objective approach is evlaen„
both in his approach to estbnatmg
the spiritual nature of each coun-
try and in biographical attitudes.
The reader Is spared tedious ac-
counts of the author's life. What is
given is significant and interesting
and tieated with humour and terse-
ness. Pellegrini uses only a couple
of pages to provide necessary per-
sonal background which less
thoughtful writers would find in-
adequate , . ,
"We own our own home— that is
to say. our mortgage— and a Stude-
baker car for which the final pay-
ment was made ten years ago.
Among our modest possessions are
the usual gadgets which make the
expatriates and the esthetes de-
spair of our material civilization.
These include a bathtub, a porcelain
toilet bowl, a telephone, an electric
stove and frigidaire. hot and cold
rurming water, a vacuum cleaner,
a waffle iron, an automatic washer,
an electric iron, a radio and phono-
graph, recorded Bach. Beethoven,
and the rest, an electric coffee per-
colator, and thermostatically con-
trolled central heating. To date
they have not in any way interfered
with our esthetic development.
Should we ever discover that they
are messing up our spiritual life,
we will burn the place down and
move across the street into a wil-
derness of maples and alders where
we will construct an outdoor privy
and read Thoreau."
The author has some uiteresting
comments to make about the Amer-
ican university: "My college days
were at once the major disappoint-
ment and the major inspiration of
my entire educational career." The
inspiration came from several pro-
fessors who were both scholars and
teachers. TJie disappointment came
from those who were merely spec-
ialist scholars. After deploring the
limitations of his first year "Teach-
ers", Pellegrini says: "r>uring the
first year at the University I did
my hardest thinking in the athletic
pavilion, usually with my wrestling
coach astride my back, pressing my
nose into the dirty- sweat-drenched
mat."
viding an informative account of
the man and his works, and inter-
preting and evaluating his contri-
bution to modern literature.
Lawrence enthusiasts will prob-
ably approach this work by Har-
ry Moore with the same eager an-
ticipation that they picked up
Richard Addington's Portrait of
a Genius But . . . and Witter Byn-
ner's Journey With Genius during
the past two years in the hope
that here, at last, is a definite
book on D. H. Lawrence. Many
will again be disappointed, for
Moore's work, although it is a
very thorough job and attempts to
present Lawrence's Ufe and work
as one. often gets bogged down
endless descriptions of Laur-
ence's short stories and in the de-
tails of his various wanderings
to and from over five continents.
Moore presents Lawrence as a
latter-day Romantic— ■'he had had
the Romantic temperament — anti-
intellectualisni, the fierce love of
nature, the tendency to be "armor-
our of the far.' the belief in in-
dividuality, the extreme sensibil-
ity"— and throughout the book
rightfully emphasizes Lawrence's
riwareness of the struggle in ex-
I islence between death and crear
lion rather than his much j- ibllc-
t ized and misinterpreted writings
on sex.
"When the darkness" Lawrence
I wrote, "of wliich I am an involved
, seed, and the light which is in-
I volved in me as a seed, when
I these two draw from the infinite
; sources towards me. when they
meet and embrace in a perfect
■ kiss and a perfect contest of me
I . . . then I li;ive peace. It Is not
j of love that we :(re fulfilled, but
i 0/ love in such intimate equipose
; with hate tliat ihe transcendence
j lakes place.*'— this is the Lawrence
j which holds Moore's attention and
I certainly the one which will make
i him live In the minds of genera-
lions to come.
Many readers will feel thai
Moore has neglected an impoi-t-
ant part of Lawience's liiler life
in refusing to eive much lime to
Lawience's lelationship with his
wife. So. too. Moore quotes var-
ious sources icparcJing Lawience's
treatment of liis friends and his
outbursts of temperament, but
makes co attempt to present a co*
herent picture of Lawrence's per-
sonality. If anything MocJ'e stress-
es Lawrence's ideas and has writ-
ten a rather academic study ol
this fiery figure.

.*cta Victoriana's third issue contains the result.s of their Literary

merit but the j;rize-winnlng fiction is bound to raise a certain anuumt
of controversy among Acta readers. Graeme Ferguson's A Yellow Ceiling
will be either violently dLsliked or else wholeheartedly embraced by
discerning admirers of Mr. Ferguson's technique. Our own opinion is
that Mr. Fergu.son has so long objected to the intrusion of literary
conventions in (he field of film art that he has deckled to repay the
compliment by bringing camera techniques to bear on literature. We
weren't particularly impressed with B. fiiasson's Grey Noon of MadneM,
but enjoyed Moods of Sye and thought M. Seacock handled her ma-
terial with more faclUty than Easson did.
Going beyond the Poetrj- and Fiction, this issue of Acta has 4
very well written article by Jim Bird on Pogo, an uneven essay by
Dave Peddle on Drama, a smooth review of The Inspector Calls by
Ricky Arnold, and. finally an editorial by John Finlay with which
we take issue — it's not up to his other two editorials and slightly
detracts from consistent high quality ol this issue as a whole.

THE VARSITY
Wednesday, February 20
Ed Maynerick I r> I I ■
Blues, Rochester
At Mutual Tonight
— Photo by Art Chct\vvnd.
Ed Maynerlck, a second year man wjtfa the Bhie basketbaliers, one
•f Varsity's best hall-hanaien, will be In action at Mutual Arena
tonlKht. Ed possesses a deadly set shot,' and is a steady team player.
■r IHAL CRAWPOBD
Thoug-h the Blues earned a splitpf the two-game week-
end series with Laval, it is a safe bet that they are glad to
have seen the last of them for this season. Though in second
place, the.v have looked like a far superior team to the
league-leading Montreal Carabins in all the games the Blues
have played with the two teams. They are just as fast,
•ppear just as well-coached, and are better defensively. They
■re not a hard hitting outfit like the' axemen from McGill;
they play real hockey. But any spectator at the games here
Saturday or Monday could tell it was no picnic scoring goals
•n them.
Laval is in second place, one point behind Montreal,
and three points ahead of Varsity, but assuming Carabins
beat McGill in their four-point game being played at Verdun
tonight, the Quebeckers haven't a chance. Varsity can cop
the cup if they win both their remaining games with Mont-
real and both of those with McGill.
This peculiar state of affairs is owing to the fact that
Laval has played all its games with Montreal, and won only
one. They have lost one to McGill, have one left which they
will probably win, but this will still leave them one point
behind the Carabins.
So the Blues, in third place, are the only team which can
catch the leaders. But if Montreal were good enough to beat
Laval three times, they must be better than they have shown
here. They have bee;i notorious prima' donnas for as long
as we have been watching them, and can look like two com-
pletely different teams in two games.
* * • *
' Laval put on a party for the Blues when they went down
to Quebec last year, getting all of them dates and treating
them to a dance. This year the .second time down, they
threw a stag (free beer, etc.) for them at the Laval COTC
Altogether they have earned the reputation of the best pos
■ible hosts in the Toronto players' estimation.
Saturday, they were all taken to the A-Nite. Most of
them had never seen a basketball game before. The majority
brought girlfriends with them, left Hart House early to do
the town.

This part should be bordered in black.
'■ Joe Kane, who dented the boards at the arena with his
head in the game with McGill last month in one of his
famous lunges at opposing puck carriers, is through with
hockey. Carried from the ice with his forehead one splotch
of blood, he sustained a slight concussion and had about 20
Btitches, he can't remember how many.
The Basketball Blues play the second of their series of
Wednesday night games at Mutual Street Arena tonight,
against what will likely be the best college basketball team
to be seen in Toronto this year, the University of Rochester.
Rochester beat the Blues by a narrow margin last year in the
Mutual Street game, providing one of the best finishes of
the season.
Varsity Blues. Rochester
Rochester ti\is year rates as one
o( the best small university teams
in the States, They have defeated
Colgate and Buffalo, both ot whom
have beaten the Blues, and de-
feated Varsity by a considerable
score in December.
Their star is a sophomore by the
name of Armstrong, a six-foot-fiver
who has scored close to thirty
points In nearly every game this
year. Top returnee from last year's
team is little Bill Secor. who has
average of 16 points a game.
Pans will remember his tricky ball
handling and sharp checking in
last year's game. As a team, Roch-
Sr. Vic Edge
Trinity B's
Despite the surprising showing
by a fighting B team from Trin-
ity, Senior Vic managed to win
yesterday's hockey play-off, 3-2.
It took a third period goal to beat
the determined Trinity team who
had come from under a two goal
disadvantage to give the Vicsters
a scare. The Scarlet and Gold
team now moves into one of Fri-
day 's semi-final games against
either Senior Skule or Dent A's
who square off at-l:30 today.
Vic led off with two goals in the
first period from the sticks of Pen-
ning and Koughan. Early In the
second Trinity came back fast
with two goals by Gray and Fish-
er. Scrivener assisted on both of
these. The third Vic goal and the
winner was fired by Gibson.
Penning served a couple of pen-
alties for Vic while Koughan and
Gibson did time too. Andison got
the only sentence lor Trinity.

HOCKEY
POT I and Vic n fought a fast
hockey battle at the arena yester-
day noon which resulted ^n an-
other 1 to 0 shur-out lor the Phy-
sots.
Breta Fredrickson opened up the
play in the first period, when she
drove the puck past the Vic goalie
to score the only counter of the
contest.
The POT crew monopolized the
puck in the second frame, keeping
the puck in the Viv zone through-
out the period, but the Vic goalie
was on her toes and the Therapists
failed to score.
The thhd period saw plenty of
breakaways for both sides, but none
of the shots went home.
Breta Fredrickson and Molly
Bark played well on the forward
line for P and OT, while goalie,
Joan Wickware and Joan Gore
were mainstays of the Vic defence
VOLLEYBALL
PHE n girls' volleyball team de-
feated UC U 51-36 in the first
game of a double-header last njght
at the Lillian Massey gym. The
half-time score was 38-15. In the
Isat half tJ.C. soared up to within
4 points of PHE, but the Phys. Ed-
ders pushed them down again to
take the game.
In the second game. St. Hilda's
ir downed Med I, 49-29. Daphne
Cross for St. Hilda's played a
superb game.
ester has averaged 73 points a game
this year.
Top scorer for the Blues at this
juncture is Lou Lukenda, with 167
points. Lou gets most of his points
after grabbhig rebounds, being a
very rugged man to contend with
under the basket. The Blues have
been chaneing their style of attack
these last few weeks, stressing much
more quick breaking, with long
passes and rapid fire exchanges In
the enemy end. The personnel is
scmewhat faster than it was pre-
viously, when they would work the
ball around slowly and shoot up or
drive in on the basket.
The preliminary, which will start
at 7:30. will have Eaton's Junior
Execs playins Etobicoke Collegiate,
one of the TDIAA's top teams
this year, as last year. The Junior
Execs beat Vic last Saturday at
Hart House.
Student tickets for the games are
on sale at Hart House for 50c but
all tickets sold at Mutual Street
are one dollar. If the turnout at
the last game is any indication,
there should be plenty of seats
available.

On Horizon
Recently a Toronto student went on a long trip — all the
way down to Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil. He was Syd Wax,
Toronto's student council president, and the Canadian stu-
dents' "foreign minister." The reason for his trip to the
Land of the Cocna Bean was an international conference, xfae Editor, The Varsity
designed to organize a Pan-American Student Union.
In paying most^of the expenses of the trip, the Bra-
zilian student union explained it wanted to add a North
Amer'can outlook to their conference.
Today Mr. Wa.x. in an open meeting of the SAC External
Affairs Commission, will discuss the meeting and its results.
In order to pave the way for him, we have delved into a bit
of Pan-American Political Science.
The Varsity Is to ne congratu-
lated for Its story and editorial
revealing the facts about the
U of T Peace Council. It has
become quite obvious that the
present executive does not care
what happens to the peace coun-
cil as long as it closely approxi-
mates nothing. ,
By proposing amalgamation
with the UN Club and then not
doing anything about it— they
ejccuse themselves from hold-
ine any meetings. In this way
they attempt to stymie any
campus discussion of peace.
By the same manoeuvre to re-
form an amalgamated club is
prevented.
Therefore, those of us who are
anxious that discussion of any
action for peace continue must
act outside the Peace Council.
To this end a meeting will be
held as soon as a room can be
obtained. To it all students In-
terested in discussing the prob-
lem presented by an inactive
Peace Council are invited, es-
pecially those students attend-
ing the SCM discussions on
Peace, ad the students in Cam-
for. The undersigned will be
responsible for chairing the
meeting until a chairman is
elected who can then call for
discussion of an agenda.

What's Doing?
Ciiballeros, ponchos and revolutions. That's the South
Amc. ica which we nortoamericano.s accept as part of the gay
mad '- ays of the Latins.
We may hear that these Latins occasionally run riot
with "anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist" battle cries. But about
South American Universty students we hear nothng.
The mass social and economic depravity of the European
rule was a tremendous stimulus for revolution, and for a
time, the establishment of democracies. But these were
never very deep-rooted democracies within the young
nations.
Speaking before the Peron era in Argentina, Union
Civica Radical leader Alvear deplored the slumping of
democracy:
"One of the saddest' developments is a certain youth
m&venicnt compounded by a mixture of innocent goatl
faith and Uie treachery of subversive agrents; a youth
movement which is underminini: democracy by fol-
lowing th^ perverted theories and ideals of those who
h^ve transfoi-med popuiai* re volutions into brutal dic-
tatorships; a youth movement that is identifying
Itself wiOt the inlolerance, persecution, falsehood,
cruelty, and despotism of the regimes of force and
violence. Formerly there was strong national reaction
to such things. In our country tlie consciousness of our
own liberty, which was aohieved at the cost of rebel-
lion, blood, and heroism . . . Ixad established that
tradition of ,'lcmocracy (bull the people have found
that every lime they express their will clearly . . .
action is taken advantage of . . . and the present
> attitude of indifference and skepticism . . . disarms
cotirage, undermines character and weakens valor."
The United States, when it turned its lascivious eyes
southward, didn't yrasp something the Latins had quickly
learned — that top-dogs have all the fun, and if you don't
come out on top, just stage another revolution — • in the
name of freedom of course. At any rate, the Americans
some years ago reversed their colonizing tactics and adopt-
ed the "good-neighbour" approach which has been only
partially successful.
The Nazis understood South American psychology well
and kept an eye on these subversive youth movements . . .
many of which were within the universities. Said a Nazi
directive in 193?> :
"It is particularly important tliat alt possible forms
of propaganda be brought to bear on university stu-
dents and that their sympathy be won to National
Socialist ideas . . . the students, L'specially in I>atin
America, Iiavc acquired an evergrowing political in-
fluence and it is imperative that we exploit this
influence in favor of German propaganda in foreign
countries . . . gain the sympathy and support of .
University professors, because they naturally exercise
great influence on the students and usually are
easily bribed."
As the Latin Americans went on alternating revolutions
with wars between neighbours, the Nazis carefully filtered
into communication, transportation and economics of the
'hemisphere. The United States wrung their hands and nat-
tered about Pan-American alliances. And finally with Allied
economic pressure brought to bear, the German putsches
didn't quite come off.
In the meantime, Peruvian Senor Ravines was being
coached in Moscow on the "Yenan Way", with Chile as the
designated field of experimentation for brother Stalin. "Fun-
damentally," say its originators, "The Yenan Way does not
take into account only the working class. We think in much
wider terms which touch on other social sectors ... in view
of the menace of fascism, millions ... are disposed to fight ^^^^J^i^'\'^''^^^^^r\ ■ . ^

Dear Sir;
It is with some misgivinirs that
we read the criticisms bein level-
led against the Canadian Broad-
casting Corporation in regard to
the CBC Time Signal. Suggestions
have been put forward that the
Dominion Observatory Official
Time Signal is too long. Further,
it is claimed that the twenty-six
short dashes followed by ten
seconds of silence constitute an
insult to the intelligence of the
Canadian public.
Th^se arguments Sir. do not
deserve to he taken seriously.
They stem, we feel sure, from
those irresponsible . elements in,
our society which will apparently
stop at nothing in their headlong
destruction of our way of life.
To them, nothing is sacred and
no tradition, however glorious its
past, can meet the insatiable lust
for what in their ignorance they
consider to be modern.
The CBC Time Signal is a
symbol of Canada herself. In
Great Britain they have five
short dashes. In some American
States they have three, and in
other States they have no short
dash before the hour
Canada, in Canada
twenty-six short dashes
by ten seconds of purg '
preceding the long dash
marks the hour. This, Mr ch^

JVa! Mr. AU Tayyeb
Editor, The Varsity:
Please publish this, our repudiation of the re-
marks attributed to Mi'. Ali Tayyeb concerning
our experience at the Ontario Department of Edu-
cation and at the Ontario College of Education.
The paragraph in The Varsity for Feb. 13 is a
complete distortion of the facts. It pretty well
verges on vandalism. We guess it is one of the
time-old and crazy tactics, though luckily with
evanescent effects, of flashing into prominence
and cheap popularity, by A gross misstatement of
the actual facts by a slanderous tongue. It is we.
who, as part-time students at the Ontario College
of Education and part-time visitors to different
educational institutions with a view to studying
their actual instructional and administrative func-
tioning at close quarters, can speak authoritatively
on the benefits that have accrued to us from the
well-planned, well-knit and at times rather heavy
programmes lined up periodically by our "hard-
taks". but none the less affectionate counsellors,
viz. Mr. Louis S. Beattie and Dr. Charles E. Phil-
lips. In living up to these arduous programmes, we
had to make tremendous efforts to emerge from
the routine into which a long span of service be-
hind us had put us, and we- showed wonderful
adaptability to the new student-life. Simultane-
ously and naturally, because of student-nature*
being the same, irrespective of age, we had a re-
vival of an irresistible propensity to truancy,
which impelled us to the decision not to re-
mind our counsellors to fill us up for a certain
day for which no programme had yet been lined
up. On how soon our hopes would be frustrated!
There would be a ring, and a simultaneous shud-
der would run through the guilty conscience of the
two of us; we knew one hundred percent that it
was from one of the counsellors. And there it was.
"Now boys, to-morrow I guess you have no pro-
gramme at the Ontario College of Education; so
visit this school and that." And to check us up.
we invariably found that information as to our
visit to an institution had travelled faster tha
ourselves.
To mention a few more benefits:—
(1) In spite of the soundness of the academi
system of Pakistan, of which we are rightly proui
we found from the graduate classes we attend^'
that there was much to learn. We derived benefi
and inspiration from all of these courses,
(2) We have been able to study intimately i
the Ontario College of Education the Industrii
Arts and other educational activities,
(3) The Ontai-io College of Education librai
has all along been so liberal to us that we fee] w
have been an exception to the rule of limiting tli
number of books and the period for which Ihi^
can be borrowed.
(4) If at all we some times managed to give th
slip to our councilors, students as we are, tliei
was Dr. Minkler to pick us up in his car and brin
us face to face with the teaching situations '
schools in the rural areas.
(5) Whenever we went out of Toronto, Mr. L.
Beattie and Dr. Charles E. Phillips manage
things so that the visit was not only benefirii
but also that we were properly looked after.

for two to three hours at a stretch, with a vie
to finding out what Canadian practices we li^
observed or might observe could be fitted into Iti
Pakistan educational system. Their common r|
mark. "We want you to make the most of
stay in Canada," would help us get over the m
results from heavy programmes.
We are ashamed at the distortion of f^^*^.

Student Exchange

Brazilian students are willing to

SAC Syd Wax.
Yesterday, Wax gave a report
of his recent trips to the Edin-
burgh conference of western stu-
dent unions and to the conference
of American students which was
held in Rio De Janeiro. NPCUS
chairman Joan Presant called the
meeting to order although only

Council Seeks Students
Needing Financial Aids
The Students' Council is looking
for students who need financial as-
sistance to go through university,
but haven't been able to get a bur
sary, or else whose bursary ia not
sufficient to cover their needs. The
council is also looking iov students,
who have been forced to leave the
university for want of money.
This search is connected with a
SAC investigation into last fall's rise
tuition fees. The investigating
committee is probing the possibility
of asking the administration to re-
duce the fees.
In order to get actual cases of
financial need, the council has ask-
ed any students in that position to
fill in a form, to be obtained at the
SAC Office in Hart House.
^■Thls form fa nvt »n appUe»tioa ^

Trivett, H Law, chairman ot the
investigating committee. "It is only
for our statistics," he added.
The names of any students who
do fill in the form will not be known
to fellow students on the investigat
Ing committee, he explained. The
only person who will know is SAC
Secretary - Treasurer E.- A. MaC'

However, the committee has added
a few other pieces of information
it wants: these are the cost of the
year's education for the student, the
work ha has done during the sum-
mer ana the money received, and
the revenue from any part-time
work he may do during the school
term.
"Throuch this form we to
find out just how much financial
difficulty the university gave the
students by raising the fees," Tri-
vett explained. "Prom all evidence,
the university needed the increased
revenue badly. The question Is
whether or not the student needs it
more."
The University's Publicity Director,
Ken Edey. said recently that at the
time of the Massey Commission the
administration had tried to find
students forced out of college for
lack of money, but without success.

The fire committees never wer«

•TTiere are two ways of settling

itf the second metJiod being Imple-
mented by the Unit«d States?"
asked Elmer Sopha, H Law. on the
Varsity Radio Round Table last
xUght. The discussion frubjcct was
"Are we being misled by Xt£. tbr-
«lgn policy?"
"The Soviets are more amenable
to change tJian was Hitler," said
Dr. Craig, lecturer in history. "And
changes have been shown recently,
lor Instance the USSR policy re-
garding atomic weapons has shown
«lgns ot changing. And this sug-
gests a way out of our present
dilemma which American foreign
policy is providing."
Dave Rose, IV VC, felt that this
was the logical outcome ot the
American policy of Soviet contain-
ment, which has been the strong
point of the U.S. foreign policy
■toce the Czechoslovakian coup.
Shirley Endicott, IV Vtc, said the
key feature ol the policy has been
!the cutting off of the East from

In spite of Ryerson student
charges that he had "gagged" a
student-sponsored campaign to re-
place present Ryerson buildings,
Education Minister Dunlop said
Tuesdav night that neither he nor
his department had had anything
to do with orders to cancel the

Over the past month, Ryerson

The students say- the orders came

Dunlop had intervened. He did
say, however, that the students
were "spending too much time" on.
the campaign, and that they should;
be using it for studies.
Schrader explained that the spe-
cial issue of The Ryersonian con-
taining the brief had been cancelled
so that it would coincide with the
presentation of the brief to- Dr.
Dunlop.
The brief outlines the difficulties
of the present site, stressing crowd-
ed conditions, poor ventilation, ladt'
of sports accommodation, deterior-
ated bijildlngs, and fit* tiireat.
In their brief, 'the students ask
the Province to put up new builds
ings on the 79-acre Wood Estate,,
on Bayview Avenue north of. Sim-
nybrook Ho^ital. The land was be-
queathed to the University of To-
ronto for use as an educational in-
stitute. At present it is used by. the
Ontario CoUege of Art and the:
Forestry Department.
Wiring so old the blueprints have
been lost, chipping plaster, the din
of machinery and throb of passing
cars are all mentioned in the brief;
Ryerson's main building was built
over 100 years ago. and has been in
constant use for a century. Other
buildings on the property are tem-
porary struotmes built by the HCAP
for use as barracks during the war.
"The laxge number of students in
the rworly- construe ted clafisrooms
creates a serious ventilation prob-
lem, often mitigated only by open-
ing the sole window in the class-
room", part of the brief reads. "In
some cases, one room is heated by
opening the doors into an adjoin-
ing room," It adds.
Although there is an "excellenf'
gym, the brief reports, tliere is only
one locker for every, ten studente.
There is no playing field; and the
rugby, soocer and other teams must
seek accommodation off the cam-
pus.
I>uring heavy rains, water leaks
around the windows and through
the roof. Doors leading hito the
food building won't slay closed no
matter how often they are repair-
ed. Timhers are rotting in the food
building, and last year the floors
sagged two inchea. Plaster is falUng
in great chunks," the brief con
.tinues.

lowed as a result of a recent v
sity, editorial oriticlzing the »;^'

Prof. Northrop Frye
By PEARL PARNES
Northrop Frye. Professor of English at Victoria
College and one of the foremost scholars on the
campus, likes Toronto. He doesn't know very much
about it; when his wife commented on the dubious
architecture of the city, he was surprised and said
he had never noticed, and probably won't now.
But "Toronto's the world's best town to mind
one's own business in".
When he is writiner. he wanders about the city
and scribbles notes in crowded restaurants.
"There's security in a place t-hat leaves you alone.
I could jump on a table in a crowded restaurant
and begin to sing, and nobody would pay any
attention. People won't join in, but once you realise
they won't respond, you're thankful for it." Which
is one way of looking at Toronto's famed coldness.
Reverend Frye was born in Sherbrooke, P.Q.,
and was brought up in Moncton, NB. He was
among the last group of students lucky enough to
enter University from Grade 11. He had taken a
business course, and was entered in the novice
class at an international typing contest In Toronto.
And, since his faie had been paid as far as
Massey Hall stage, he decided to stay, and entered
the University of Toronto.
The "terrible oM Pass Course" was the only
course he could enter, but he soon switched to
Philosophy and English. After receiving his BJi.,
he entered Emmanual College, and graduated from
Theology in 1936.
But he had decidoil along the way that he
w^anted to teach English. Back in Moncton, he had
been lucky enough to be in High School the one
year Palgrave's Golden Treasury was on the cur-
riculum, and Milton and Marvell. among others,
woke him up to literature. Then Moncton built a
new library, and imported a complete edition of
George Bernard Shaw's plays, and the young stu-
dent devoured them, prefaces and all.
He had never been a brilliant pupil, and spent
most of his primary education "comfortably near
the bottom of the class". However, by the time he
graduated from the University of Toronto, he had
won a Royal Society Fellowship to Oxford, where
he received his M.A. in Honour English.
Professor Frye has some comments to make on
the recently notorious state of English among stu-
dents, "In order to get some sense of the excite-
ment of poetry, you have to have a decent knowl-
edge of English grammar. The Remedial English
course is an attempt to fight a crumbling stan-
dard in secondary schools." He feels that the
American system had hit rock bottom and is now
climbing out again, while Canada is still skidding.
"You judge a tree by its fruit, and if a student is
illiterate by the time he gets here, something is
obviously wrong."
Ideas are words, believes Prof. Prye. "You don't
have ideas first and then words. The interest of
educators is not in the bad grammar of the stu-
dents— you can fix that. The problem comes in
the lack of ideas, and of the will to say anything.
You can develop ideas by putthig words together."
Prof. Frye feels that the intellectual climate
of the time is hostile to independent thinking. "In
the depression, people had a powerful motive for
questioning. Now youngsters are In « stat*
•wait and see'. And the educational system h
increased the tough spot the student is in l;
not giving enough concreteness in the actual w
of his thinking, which are words."
The author of one booK and numerous arucw
Prof. Frye intends to write a whole shelf of boofa
a flexible shelf with bookends to accommodate J?
number. His work on William Blake, the
called "Fearful Symmetry" was published in \^
after being completely rewritten five times. lA
year he was sent to Harvard on a Guggenheii
Fellowship, to work on a study of the PaeJi
Queene, and Shapespearean Comedy. His interej
In symbolism led him to study the whole questioi
of allegory. Regarding the question of obscm
symbohsm, Mr. Frye feels that If a poet is deliber,
ately using personal symbols to cover his tracb
he's probably a neurotic. ^

Frye returned from London in 1939, landing i
Toronto the day the Soviet-Nazi pact was signB
and joined the staff of Victoria College. He is
member of the C.C.F., feeling that they are

politically active, and "not even an officii

"King Richard II"
Monarch Deposed
Shakespeare's RICHARD II has been called his best
"history play" but it would be described by Polonius a "tra-
gical historical" play since it is something of a mixture. The
first half of the play deals with the banishment of Boling-
broke and his return to power.
After Bolinrbroke returns from
his banishment he wins all Rich-
ard's enemies to his side; then
turns on Richard's friends, while
tlie Ising is away quelling an up-
rising in Ireland. Thus when
Richard returns he finds that Bol-
ingbroke holds the balance of
power.
From this point which occurs In
tile middle of the play the action
of Richard n deals almost exclus-
ively with the subject of kingship
and the character of the deposed
monarch. Until the return from
Ireland Richard is seen as a cold,
flippant king, given to following
poor advisors. After the usurp-
non by Bollngbroke he is seen In
a different light.
He becomes more sensitive

™self to death in a noble fashion

'S^^n Recital — Gerald Bales presents another in the series of recitdls
he pro-
vided for the Vlemiese public, ori-
ental extravaganzas were among
the most successful. His idea seems
to have been to get Mozart to com-
pose some music for such a spec-
tacle, which was to include a virtu-
ous queen, an evil necromancer,
love, sorcery, and a considerable
menagerie, all in an Egyptian set-
ting.
"The Magic Flute" was the re-
sult of this enterprise, and extern-
ally, it has tne marks of what in
1791. corresponded to "Quo Vadi-^ '
Somewhere in the course of the
composiUon of the work, however.
Schickaneder and Mozart seem to
have had a brilliant idea.
Instead of the conventional vir-
tuous queen, they made the Queen
of the Night into a coldly, terrify-
mgly evil figure. Sarastro, the
necromancer, became the high
priest of an order devoted to "rea-
son, labor and art"— a thinly-dis-
guised portrait of the Masonic order
to which both belonged. '
The opera became an epic, de-
scribing the tiials of Tamino and
Pamina, who seek the exalted con-
dition of priest and priestess of the
order. The end of the opera is no
longer the conventional "prince
marries virtuous queen's daughter,"
Instead, prince and princess to-
gether pass through the trials of
fire and water, and are solemnly
received into the order by Sarastro.
who proclaims to an awesome mu-
sical phrase that "the rays of the
sun vanquish the night, and shatter
the power of evil."
Schickaneder got more than he
bargained for. He still attracted
the cro^^ds who came to see the
chariot drawn by lions and to listen
to Papageno's corny jokes. With his
elaborate allegory on church, state
and freemasonry, he also drew an
intellectual audience, who saw
through the Egyptian facade, and
listened to what was musically and
verbally the embodiment of the
philosophy of the Age of Reason.
Mozart's music was wiitten just
before his untimely death m the
autumn of 1791. He abandoned the
growing complexities of his Italian-
opera style of "Cosi fan tutte"
(1790), and composed music of a
profound and moving simplicity.
It is in the same spirit as the
and the "Lachr>-mosa" from' the
Requiem, both written about the
same time.
In spi(e of a libretto that is, by
general agreement, third-rate hack-
work <it seems to have been writ-
ten partly by Schickaneder. partly
by Mozart himself, and in some
instances cribbed from another
work), the "Magic Piute" became
one of the most admired of operas.
Its musical influence can be seen
directly in the works of Weber
and indirectly even in Wnnner's.
almost 100 years later.
Performances, however, have
been rare, not only because of tJie
elaborate seli,iii(,'s required, but also

In the first game SPS led 17 to
14 at the end of the first period,
(having led 14 to 4 midway
through the period, and they were
ahead 29 to 27 at the end of the
second period. Then UC made the
score 40 to 32 In their favor with
about four minutes remaining In
the game, and then started ragging
the bail, successfully holding off
the SPS stretch-drive to win 40 to
39.
In their second encounter, yes-
terday. Jr. SPS led 16 to 3 at the
end of tlie first period, and 24 to
15 at the end of the second. UC
again came from behind in the
third period tying the score 31-31,
with less than a minute left In
the game. This time it was the
engineers' turn to win the close de-
cision, which they did, 33 to 31.
These teams are now tied for
second place in their group stand-
ing, each having won three and
lost three. Hence they wlU have
to meet again In a group play-off
game: and on the basis of the two
games they have already played,
their next encounter should be very

and one loss, are leading the
group; and Jr. Vic. is In last

Blues in Guelph exactly three weeks
ago today. To add insult to injury,
the cads won the contest by a wide
7-4 margin. Now if the OAC boys

quite possible, they have only

for first place which would force
playoff.
The spearhead of the Aggie ma-
chine is winger Jack Reeves who
only managed to score '4 goals
against Varsity in their first meet-
ing. He is backed up by a pretty
fair defence and goalie Wynch who
ihoue at times during the previous
tonlest. Other Aggie players whom
the JV's will have to look out for
are Tolleavan. the McLean brothers
and "Sherlock" Holmes.
The JV's have Uiree well-balanced
forward Unes with Yeo. Dies, Bod-
nar. Holden and Co. The defence
Bmnington, Huycke, and Brerman,
when he came on at the end of the
period, brought the score up to 20-
13 at the end of the first period.
Huycke was shooting up more than
he has in the past, and Brennan
and Binnington, both of whom hav-
ing been far below their last year's
form in previous games, found the
range on several running shfits.
Jim Armstrong and John Hum-
mel, both 6'5", kept Rochester
ahead with their rebounding, a de-
partment where the Blues usually
have an edge. Armstrong, leading
scorer for the team, showed a lovely
hook shot from dead in front of
the basket, dlsdainiiig the' use of the
backboards. .
In the close checking second
period, the Rochester scoring ma-
chine was held tc .seven points.
Every time they dribbled the ball
once too often (which they did
quite often for a team of their
class) the Blues would come up
with it. Varsitj' shot mostly from
well outside; not till a couple of
minutes from the half, when Mon-
not went on, did they score two In
a row from under the hoop. Monnot
hooked one and Lukenda pushed
in a rebound to tie It 26-26. Arm-
strong scored a free toss to leave It
27-26 at half-time.
The lead changed hands seven
times in the third period. Oneschuk
put Toronto ahead 28-37 to begin
with, and Binnington beat the horn
ending the period to give Varsity
a lead at 41-40.
Armstrong opened the fourth for
the Yellow Jackets but Glover and'
Maynerick scored two quickies and
Toronto was in front 45-43.
The lead continued to fluctuate,^
and in the clo.slng minutes Ro-'
Chester, ahead 53-51, ragged the
ball to keep possession. Lukenda
stole the ball, passed to Brennan
who scored the lay-up to tie the
score. Armstrong fouled Monnot
with five seconds to go, and Ray
coolly sank the first one, Tlie
Blues waved the second, and hung
onto the ball to secure the win.
Apart from the return to form
of Brennan, Huycke, and Blnning-
Eaton's Junior Execs beat Eto.

The Womea's Intemediate Bas-

right side of a 46-24 taUy, wlieu
they clowned Newmarket Collegi-
ate girl's team at OCE last nlgW.
The Varsity crew gave a
much
Improved showing over their Mon-
day night's performance agatosl
McMaster Juniors.
The girls displayed some terrt-
fic checking throughout the game
and the play was much closer

market girls kept Toronto guessing
in the first half with the score ai
half time. 34-20 for the locals.
The Intermeds started to roll »

to . a specialty, be It Medicine. Law, English, or any other subject to be-
come involved in the niceties, of the siibjeoWand expect others to
appreciate them. And how can. one define '"chaos"?
Then* too, the report of the university. library which was partially
puhllshed in this paper, was met with much inadequate and shaUow
thinking by a few'of our vociferous undergrads. The figures were not
analyzed nor was there sufficient research made, because of the rush
to climb on the bandwagon carrying the Illiteracy banner.
But these are quibbling points.
Whai is of more interest to me Is the role the lecturers are asked
to play. Here I most heartily agree with the suggestion that a " lecture
is a personal relation", ^d being of Meds, I speak with authority.
But here I. leave the science of education, and go to the Art.
Because education, like medicine and most sciences, is made or
broken by the Art. I feel the Art' of .edncatmg at this University is
not m too bad a state. I say this because on some occasions I have
been so bored by a lecture as to fall asleep; I have awakened to be
greeted by the next man to me saying that it had been a terrific
lecture. There is a place for boring, plodding lecturers, as long as there
is a place for boring plodding people in our society. And as the
student hody is made of such widely divergent personalities that kind
of lecturer will always be appreciated. Some, and realize it Is only
some, students (with no snobbishness Intended), prefer a livelier
presentation;
Now, I Kave a reaMtt for saylng it dftesnt matter how lectures are
presented.' It is because of a belief that the urge to learn is not the
result of carefully nurtured minds; nor nicely Integrated timetables;
nor hoppedfup lecturers, rather the urge la the result of one magic
mcment.when by of ttimea a chance remark made by a lecturer strikes
a chord; in. his listener — and there is never more question of that
student's desire or urge to learn. And given the urge, there ic little
necessity for formal schooling.
Saeh a remark occurred during an IntrodtKtory lecture In a rather
dirty classroom on a warm fall afternoon several years ago. The
hazy sub could barely penetrate the giloom' of the room. Tlie lecturer
had outlln'ed the course, which was heavy, and had promised hard
work in. store. His class, rather blas6 Medsmen who had already
explored the secrets of the human body, were preparing to put on the
ffece of hardened cynicsm, which is so often necessary wlien looking
as disease and death. The lecturer paused^
*Vbaok at your neighbour", he said. *Xook at him be be beauti-
ful or Qgly. Then look at your patients, at the people In the world
around you . . . :uul remember, each oi ua was conceived in ecstasy."
That' was a magic moment. One which balanced all the non-
productive, lectures. There are many such, moments on this campus,
when we consider the multipilicity of students and lecturers.
Wellinow, where do I stand? As a. man of science I have seen^ no
valid ' reason for alarm over the present state of "adequate mental
equipment". The furore ser\'es as a useful "spur to prick the sides
ol my intent". As an individual I feel all is not lost, nor even nearly
lost, for the undergraduate body of this University.

Come Sweet Death
The decision of the Executive of the National Federation
of Canadian University Students to retain the questionmark
on the Russian student visit till next fall is hardly surpris-
ing. But it is disappointing. It would seem to indicate that
NFCUS prefers a dead ash to a burning issue.
• ■ To most undergraduate.?, NFCUS is a crashing bore.
Despite all the propaganda, all the reminders that positively
every student pays his twenty cents worth and therefore
Iwlongs, few know anything about its activities — and care
less.
Of course. NFCUS lacklustre ha.s been the result, to
Bome extent, of .student indifference. Vast and imaginative
programs are impossible unless accompanied by loud under-
graduate cheers. Or so the argument goes.
Now we are not quite so convinced. Having been thrown
a golden opportunity for everlasting fame, the Executive
seems to have fumbled the catch. The Russian question
fairly sizzled last fall; and the Executive did nothing to
intimate its interest. Now, th'ey have come up with a com-
prehensive plan for investigating the possibilities of the
much discussed, almost exhausted visit. Such a plan is very
necessary, but the reaction a little delayed.
One of the most unfortunate aspects of the whole delay
IS the necessity of having a formal referendum taken next
fall on every campus. This means that the universities
■which have already agreed, at least on the principle of the
yisit. will have to take another vote.
Instead of riding the crest of student opinion last fall,
the NFCUS Executive may have waited till the tide has
gone out. Was this, perhaps, what they wanted? Certainly,
it is hardly conceivable that the same, or even comparable,
interest will be aroused a year later. It is interesting to note
that members of the Executive include representatives of
Laval. McMaster and Saskatchewan — all these universities
Toted against the Russian visit during this year.
The chief reason for taking another vote seems to be a
refusal to revoke last September's vote because the sixteen
university votes were taken on rather different bases. The
NFCUS executive could have called for a referendum when
the issue was alive. We wonder whether the clarity and
preciseness of next year's information will not be offset by a
lack of student interest — they have voted once and enthusi-
asm will not reach the same peak on the same issues.
It would seem that the NFCUS Executive is crooning
"Come Sweet Death" — ^to the Russian issue. We can only
hope that it will not turn out to be their own swan song.

Editor, The Varsity:
The article of Mr. Nelson concerning the ISS
Seminar in India printed in issue of The Varsity
must for many reasons not be allowed to pass by
unanswered.
The basic question put forward throughout the
article by Mr. N, is, why the seminar must be held
at ail? In his opinion the chief reason for the
undertaking seems to be the necessity to save India
from Communism for Democracy and, on the side
of the students, to spend a nice summer vacation
in the strange land of jewel-laden maharajas and
holy rivers.
These are merely secondary reasons. If Mr. N.
were right, the seminar really should b6 called off^
and the fighter-pilot should be trained instead
with the $65,000, because such procedure would be^
by far more appropriate to the poverty and hope-
lessness of our moral and spiritual existence.
But we are not quite so far gone. "We" means
in this case that generation which all over the
world some years ago rose enthusiastically from
their school benches, put on the khaki-brown or
field-grey uniforms to defend their countries or
fatherlands, the generation which returned from
the battle-fields, the field-grey ones disillusioned
and stunned about the real causes of their leaders,
and the khaki-brown ones victorious but soon to
see how the peace was lost again by their leaders.
All this had happened once before. We do not want
to go the same awful way a third time; if heaven
will 'give us another chance It certainly will be
the last one.
What then are our tasks? We must free ourselves
from the disastrous legacy of hate and distrust,
from the fatal force of national and racial su-
periority and inferiority complexes, and, in general
from the currents of thought which have niled
the world in the last decades, a-iefly, we must
get rid of the spiritual and moral mischief done
by the previous generations. Go and read those
books in political economy, government and
especially international affairs in every language,
and you will see the diabolic and false logic, dia-
gmsed under the mask of science which dares
condemn whole nations because of one man, and
one man because of nationality or race. We must
free our minds frwn these poisonous successors
of Northcliffe, Goebbels and Hearst. The day will
come when the political deadlock of today is solved
again, either by sword or by persuasion, and then
we must not stand with empty hands, obsolete
songs of hate still stirring our minds. We are to
find a concept of how peace may be secured and
where to find a way possible for all of us, without
thrusting one i>aek in disaster or pushing him
into the economic or political abyss. If we do not
have such concept at hand when the moment
oomes, we shall land again in Treaties of Brest-
Litowsky or Versailles, Agreements of Yalta or
Potsdam, devices which will lead us all in a last
catastrophe fully deserved.
To form sueh concept of our own. one in which
there is no room for notions like inherited enemies,
dictated treaties, supremacy of races or nations,
we cannot rely alone on the text-books written
more or less with bias, have only dealt with the
problems of the last 30 years war from 1914 on.
We must go and find out things ourselves. We
have to meet other people and to discuss with
them, and to try to see their points. We shall try
to acquire our knowledge, concerning the prob-
lems of other people, wherever possible tlirough our
own eyes and ears, and not through the pens of
those who cannot free themselves from the psycho-
logical and material ruins which they have helped
to bring about.
Yes, seminars like thU must be held whenever
the financial situation will make it possible. They
are one of the most efficient means to assist us
In our aspirations for mental independence. Young

Students interested in going on
either one of two trips to Hart

blamed the poor attendance at

tion. Skulemen want social events,
he claimed, and don't want to spend
their one or two free nights a week
at technical meetings.
Smale claimed that Uie Engineer-
ing Society had lost interest In
helping engineers to become the
socially weh-developed men "who
get the job".
Skule spirit doesn't come from
dances, said Wally Emon, IV, speak-
ing from the floor. Ettnon maintain-
ed that until initiations and the
practice of the traditional tie fighs
beween Skule Freshmen and other
faculties is restored, there will be
no revival of Skule spirit.
Speaking for the oegatWe, Mor-
ley Marks, II. pointed to the excel-
lent social tradition of the cannon,
the chariot race, the Lady Oodlva
Memorial Band, and Ajax the Skule
Mule. He added, as examples of
Skule spirit, that Skulemen had en-
tered the Float Parade, and can-
vassed for SHARE. Marks recom-
mended that the Engineering So-
ciety should institute a course ia
"Human Engineering",
The Engineering Society should
help the individual student achiev«

the Society should arrange mora
technical meetings with outstanding
speakers, publish technical papers

^nsor and support post-graduate
research and student seminars.
Douff Sherk, President of the En-
gineering Society, explahied that
the Society executive finds It "can't
do anything" because of the lack of
interest of the members. "We don't
want to hit people over the head;
we want to interest them honest-
ly," Sherk said.
The Society has not lost interest
in the students, Sherk said, but the
executive has had to do all the
work themselves because no one
else would help.

JfWarxist Thinks
A working class society has
produced a "science of history"
which will mean that in the future
man will be able to control history,
according to Vic Hopwood. guest
speaker for the Labor Progressive
Party club yesterday, Hopwood
said that it depends on how people
see the world and act whether or
not the capitalistic system, which
is capable of producing World War
HI, dominates or whether the
working people can maintain
peace. He explained that if peace
is maintained the imperialists will
fall In their efforts to dominate
the world.
Hopwood, a graduate in philos-
ophy from this university, was
speaking on the topic "lUstorlcal
Materialism."
Hopwood said that Canada be-
came an Independent imperialist
country but then, of her own voli-
tion, became a satellite Imperial-
ist country to the United States.
He said that the Canadian capital-
ist sold out the national interest
in tbe country in the hopes of reap*
ing some of the benefits of the
American exploitation of other
countries. Canada, according to
Hopwood Ls probably the most
highly monopolized country In the
world.
War and economic conflict arise,
according to Hopwood, out of tbe
difference caused by an economia
system where the products of a
working society are owned private-
ly while the productive sources are
social (I.e. a factory involves tbe
co-operative efforts of hundreds ot
men).
In contrast to this practice, he
cited Karl Marx's maxim "From
each according to bis ability — to

Western, MoGlU, Ouelph and Queen's are In

Vic, UC Debate
For better or lor worse, the To-
ronto Symphony Orchestra became
a Stokowski orchestra last Tues-
day and Wednesday. The famous
conductor took hold of the orches-
tra and and positively seemed to
knead It into new and constantly-
changing shapes.
All tbe tricks of the Stokowski
trade were in evidence— the
travagant crescendos and dimin-
uendos, the sensuous dwelling on
cadences, and tbe tight control of
dynamics (though not always
rhytlun). T^ese things are very
familiar to everyone through rec-
ords and radio; but to see and
hear them happen to tbe poor old
TSO was a little short of soul-
shattering.
C3iaracteristicaUy Stokowski
began his program with three
adaptations of 17th and 18th cen-
tury music; a suite from the works
of Purcell. a Vivaldi concerto
grosso, and Bach's Passacaglia
and Fugue in C minor. Again, there
is no need to mention what hap-
pened—everybody has heard these
things at one time or another.
I hoi>e Z am not more hide-
bound than my neighbors at the
symphony. Z frankly admit that
what Stokowski did with this mu-
sic was incredibly thrilling, and I
applauded sincerely. However,
the thrill 1 got was from seeing a
house on Are; thve was a little
horror mixed with It.

Finding out there was no third

third to win the game."
Anyway tbe vast mob of ten fans
thought the game was a howling
success although there were so
many ringers the game looked like
horseshoes.

There Is something a bit terrify-
ing about a man that can take tbe
great, austere Passacaglia and
Fugue, one of the greatest of all
organ works, loc^ it calmly In
the eye, and turn it into a lush
virtuoso piece for orchestra, im-
pose his own climaxes, his very
language on it.
There was no imposition on Wag-
ner 's Prelude and Ixtve-Death
from "Tristan", which concluded
the concert. Here the music and
Stokowski's playing of It agreed,
and the result was Wagner at his
most sublime.

Tbe hour-long program consisted
exclusively of English music, rang-
ing in date of composition from the
late Middle Ages to the present
day, with a notable absence of
18th and IQth century music. Eric
RoUinson helped in his gay intro-
ductions to straighten out the
audience on the history of some of
the lesser-known composers repre-
sented.
Seven of the numbers performed
were madrigals in all their poly-
phonic glory, with as many as
six parts in some case's. The en-
thusiasm of the choir for tliis mu-
sic was quite evident in their
forceful but neat phrasing and dec-
lamation, giving life and color to
an the parts, including the inner
ones.
The tone of the voices, esa^
iiOly of the sopranos, was charS
tttlsUc of the SOI t given
choir of untrained voices. Th-,!
is a little less ring to lU-more iSl
a group of viols than of violin
Tlie result was quite approprlaS
to the music the choir sang sine*
no one tried to force the tone
another matter in which this gnjun
superi(»> to the others i
heard, ^"
The preponderance of sopranoi
over the other voices was a litUj
too great for good balance, ei.
cept where they divided into lint
and seconds. However, when ttie
girls divided into two equal
groups for "Sweet nymph, cmd*.
to thy lover", the result ,was »
beauty and exactitude of balance
that would be hard to match, nie
men in "Sweet Kate" was alraoit
as good.
A final note should be added re>
garding Eric Rollinson's arrange,
ment, in the most drastic modern
terms, of the Trinity song. I do
not Icnow if the bizarre hai moay
and key shifts had any deep slg*
nificance. They did add soma
rollicking good fun to the tune, Qr
all means let all the colleges sing
their tunes in Hart House, if ther
cfun get arrangements like tUi
one.

The International Players, wlio presented Wilde s best play at U»-
ttie High asiool thds week would be advised to stick to summer-stock
plays which they understand. Their production of THE IMPORTANCE
OP BEING EARNEST was an uncertain comedy of no Intentions I
thijilt they intended to make us laugh but they were not too successful.
They killed as many of Wilde's Jokes a» they could and made no at-
tempt to achieve a single united style and purpose.
The director. WlUiam Needles, oould not decide whether the play
jas a larce or a stylized comedy of manners and allowed the actore
to switch from one style to anther indiscriminately. Actually the
play is both, and the players. IX they exaggerate the mannerisms and
especiaUy the sophistication, achieve an effect that is much mote
positive an4 farcical than the usual tricks of rolling ej-es, double-takes
Mid "hanuny" timine on jokes. The lines should all be spolten with the
aune amount of "earnestness" which, for Wilde, is a superficial, hyi»-
oitical s.jt of feeling. Thia makes it seem as it the people are very
rrious about what they aay and yet don't care so much as a muffin.
Drew Thompson and John Howe, as John Worthing and Algernon
Mwicneft, approached It for a moment in their tiff over the muffins
the latter for Uie moat part was either !>laying realistically— takins
the lines at their face value— or carelessly— without knowing what
Hie lilies meant. Mr. Ttiompson on the otiier hand commits ail kinds
ot mi'^takes without anyone noticing. For one thing, lie was not play-
,iii8 the part at all; he merely plays each line as it comes along for all
tbat it is worth and in doing so often steps beyond the pale into
lastelKs vaudeville teohtuque. But he has an ingratiating stage presence
that hides many of those faults.
Jane Malletf, who has star-billing and who usually can demoosttate
liow comedy should be done, was very weak as Lady Bracknell. She
Bemed to be groping for her lines, going through it all mechanically.
m timing was way off the beat and she did very strange things with
aw mouth which seemed unneoeosary.
lHaxine MiUer, as Cecily Cardew. was the only conslstenay good
Pmormer. She looked charming and played with right earnestness
"gi Brown aa Gwendolyn had moments when s'je too was close to
■"understanding, but her scene with CeoUy was far loo deadly. It
•WW have been more effective if played politely. Peter ScoU in the
"le of the analogy-seeking Dr. Chasuble was competent but some-
*nat too self-conscious.
■ was all very imsatiafaotoiy for so clever a play.

ing 50.000 troops in tlie Canal Zone
to a distance of 30 kilometers in-
stead of 10.000 troops to a distance
of 10 kilometers, as aUowed under
the treaty.
The Chinese delegate. Bob Chiang,
said, "my government Ls sympa-
thetic to both countries, for we
have once been a great empire and
like the British. lost power. We
have alao known the presence of
foreign imperial troops within our

never be subjected to blockade.

When the Eryptian resolntloB
asking for the withdrawal of tha
British troops was put to a voCo

gate from the United States was

Men capable of earning $50 a
day are needed to search wave
lengths for Varsity radio. So ran an
advertisement In yesterday's Var-
sity. This does not mean that the
students will be paid $50. or at all,
but they will gain experience per-
haps enabling thetn to get such
jobs after gradution, said Bud
Trlvett. n Law. one of the students
who hope to have a Varsity radio
station in operation next fall.
The sladcnta are needed to do
tha mathematical calculations ne-
cessary to find a fce<?iency for the
proposed station. This must be
done before any application for a
station can be made. Commercial
firms charge as much as $50 a day
for doing this, and since it is an
operation that can take weeks, it
would obviously be too expensive to
hire a firm. So the radio commit-
tee feels that a couple of students
in electrical Engineering, or per-
haps ham radio men In other
courses could gain experience In
this way. There have been several
applications already.
A frsquency for Vanuty radio may
be located in a few hours, or it may
take weeks, he said. It depends
partly where they try to locate it.
since some parts of the band are
a lot more crowded than others.
A suitable part of the band is
chc-jen first, with regard to such
considerations as the height of an-
tenna It will require, and then tha
engineers go to work on Uiat sec-
tion with mathematical formulae.
Tlic advei'tl.'iement also a-sked tor
a "talented accountant." Con.sider-
able bookkeeping will be required
to set up what the cost:i will be
for the various things, so that funds
can be spread out eveny through
the year. The accountant should be
someone in Commerce and Finance,
or Economics, who is taking ac-
counting.
Like the engineers, the accoun-
tant would be unpaid. The idea of
the whole project is to train peo-
ple interested In going ahead la
radio in particular, and those in-
terested in amateur radio while In
college, in general.

Editor, The VaisHy:
One man died and tb« i^ole
world stood still. Or ao would
seem the -wish of many leaders.
One man died and the multitudes
humbled themselves in reverence,
his funeral became a spectacle of
pageantry and deatli.
The role of him who died, vic-
tim of circumstance, was scion
of imperialism with all its caste,
Ineqixality, and denial of the iml-
▼ersal brotherhood of mankind.
Tliey who praised him professed
Christianity with its e<iuality be-

dique unforgivably lacking In
foresi^t? Why, If The Varsity Is
Interested in covering the issue
of a proposed Radio Station, do
they not consult those who have
systematically checked their
sources and obtained authorita-
tive information relevant to the
actual issue?
First regarding the question of
cost: "Hie University needs no
more than a 100-watt station.
The Engineering Department es-
timates the cost of building such
a station to be approximately
$3,500 - $6,000. The Varsity in-
quired about the cost of a new
and installed 250-watt station
and obtained the figiu-e of $30,-
000. This figure is obvioizsly irre-
levant to the present situation.
Now regarding the question of
personnel requirements: Queen's
University, with an enrollment
one-sixth that of the U. of T,
has for several years been suc-
cessfully operating a station with
more available personnel than
they need to use. This fact alone
should be sufficient to dispel any
doubts, even those ol the overly
pessimistic Varsity.
In coocluslon may we offer a
word of advice to The Varsity?
Remember your function. If you
wish to give an impartial ap-
praisal of the efforts of the Ra-
dio Committee, find out what
those efforts are before attempt-
ing to check them against other
taifonnaUoQ. In this case the v»-
ports have been biased because
of a failure to take into account
the situation to he appraised.

So-Called
Editor, The Varsity:
Monday's issue of The Varsity
eairied an article on the lecture
given by Hal Proctor on the sub-
ject "The Marxist View of the
State." I object to the conception
M the "state" which Mr. Proctor
hold throughout the article. Be
contends that the state is nmply
an Instrument in the hands of
the "capitalists," Uiat the powers
of the state are used to the ad-
vantage of the sontall group of
people who can class themselves
with K. P. Taylor. He clums
that the government of this
country, the govenunent founded
upon democratic principles, Is
only of use to oppose any change
bo the balance of power.
I wish to remind these who
share the same line of thought
are not held by the milfioS^Jl!?
as Mr. Proctor would like us u
believe but are held by thiJi
who claim to be citizens of

ment is brought about by thl
will of the people, it jg

Etxaor, The Varsity:
Mr. Gray, in his review of tht
AU-Varslty Revue, got so wrap-
ped np in the lighter and man
clownish parts of the show that
he completely ignored one of tht
brightest lights in the show, Ray
Davidson. Five numbers wert
snng by Mr. Davidson, and sung
very well In my opinion. Bnt
that's beside the point since d«
matter what sort of performancs
was turned in, an artist of such
calibre deserves some mention,
and a reviewer who isn't blinded
by either bias or ignorance would
recognize that fact. So let's givfl
credit where It is due, credit f
the clowns, but to the mors
prominent artists also.

THE
A Magazine
To Make You
LAUGH
By PEARL PARNES
Back in the days of the post-
flrsl-World War period, there
.prang up in a number of places
.J, ihe North American continent,
crop of humour writers. The
'pirge." the University of "Vir-
ppia Reel." the "Punch BowJ" and
"Brown Jug" were a few of the
jpagazine-s that bobbed up in uni-
,er.sities across America and Can-
And a group of enterprising
g students at the Universitj
MAitrii m
ol Toronto had a casual conversa-
tion and gave birth to the "Goblin."
James A. Cowan, now head of the
■3. Arthur Ranit organization here,
was the editor-in-chief. There was
Page Fiv*
the odd "arty-aity" magazine "be-
ing published at the time, with Mr
Justice D. C. Wells, the moving
spirit of one, and the Varsity was
flourishing three times a week. Life,
riding on lis Gibson Girl success,
and Judge were the two humour
magazines of the time. Then Mr.
Mellerdramnier
A young chap whose name Is Jim
Stollick
Once kissed a girl just for a frolic
She had a complexion
Of cosmetic perfection.
And he died of a bad Painter's
Colic.
—Reprinted from the Goblin, 1921.
Cowan and his cohorts rented an
office, and financed themselves
with the money "none of us had."
They had to make the magazine
a success or they would have to

THE
VARSITY
Fridoy, February 22, 1952
Of
Br MAI, OBAlVrOMt
The Blues not only broke a record Wednesday night
Rochester's record of ten straight wins — but they set or
prolongred one or two of their own. For one thing, it was the
first time that Toronto has beaten Rochester, at least since
Bob Masterson took over the coaching in 1948; it also marks
• win string of five victories against no losses on home
grounds, though they have lost all their road games except
with McGill and Queen's.
But the most notable record was that set by the fans.
Onlv 34 student tickets were sold. Some three or four
hundred regular price tickets were sold at Mutual Street, and
Bome of the.se were probably bought by students, but it still
•ppears that most of the support Varsity gets for theu:
erames at the Arena is from adult fans.
There is always a good turnout for the games at Hart
House. Yet the best games last year, without exception, were
the ones played at Mutual Street. The floor there is full
size (one of the very few such courts in Canada), and the
Beating is adequate— about 4,000 scats. Why there is in-
yarialily a turnout of over a thousand at Hart House A-nite
Fames, where the spectators usually have to stand two or
three deep, generally to see a scrambly ball game in which
the players haven't room to move around, while the best
Barnes are played before rows of empty seats at Mutual
Street, is more than this columnist can figure out.
a • • • •
For several years now, this University's greatest need,
in athletics anyway, has been modern and adequate facili-
ties for its various indoor sports. Students apparently will
not turn out to games downtown no matter how much better
the games or the seating accommodation. Nor is it entirely
B matter of getting crowds to watch.
There is only one gym of practical size for all the bas-
ketball played at the University — intercollegiate, mter-
facultv, and just fooling around. The fencers and the weight
lifters all work out in the same room. Any weignt lifter
who sti-avs from the weights platform is in danger of being
inpaled on a foil or beheaded by a sabre. There is no .f eat-
ing capacity for indoor track meets, and the track itsett,
while very good for its size, does not compare with the ZiO
Indoor cinder tracks at American colleges. The swimming
Dool is excellent though .seating here too is cramped.
♦ • ♦ ♦ *
' At Michigan State College, a new field house was built
■bout ten years ago. In front of it, as in front of all of their
athletic buildings, stands a sign saying "Erected at no cost
to the public: this building was paid for entarely out ol
■pectators' admission charges."
The main part of the building, about the same size as
Varsity Arena, contains a 220 cinder track, laid out around a
raised basketball floor. The galleries seat about 5,000. In a
wing of the same building are (downstairs) the pool, wrestl-
ing and other facilities, and (upstairs) a gym containing live
basketball floors for intramural games, each about the size ot
Hart House gym.
While a .sports factory like that is not necessary at
Toronto, the contrast in facilities is striking to say the east.
" Hart House was completed in 1914, and has given nearly 40
years of good use.
No one expects that this would be done here immediate-
ly The debt on the stadium would have to be paid off first,
for one thing. Nevertheless the erection of a seperate build-
ing tor indoor sports should be scheduled for withm the
next ten years.

bless her beastly little heart, we loves her and we want her
back in the same spot next year.
Varsity's first hearing will be held at 9:00 o'cloclt
tonight. On Saturday afternoon the session will continue
with a winners-meet-winners and losers-meet-losers match.
The Toronto squad is going into the fray with three wins in
exhibition games behind them. Eight of the girls are vet-
erans of last year's Intecoll championship team. Alma Hate
is in high scoring position, while both Sally Wallace (Inter-
collegiate point leader last year) and Joan Mooney have been
playing good ball again this year. Peg Walker, who misse"
the tournament last year because of a broken foot, will be
wearing the blue this week-end. Rookies Shirley BoberU

games with McMaster and Hamilton Normal.

This is the Nth in a series of articles, appearing spasmodically
and on various subjects by Max Parsons.
By MAX PARSONS
A ray of light has been oast into one
of the darker corners of my mind, It's
only a ray mind you — but it's a par-
ticularly dark oomer.
It must be four years now since I first
begun to worry about ' modem art. It
has never been a serious worry, like
where - will-next- week 's- rent- money -oome-
from. or shaU-I-get-up-this-mornhig-or-
just-stay- in -bed-and- to -hell- with- it-all. I
recall the incident ratdier clearly. I was
in Paris, and got caught in a thunder-
^rm. The first handy , building happen-
ed to be the art gallery fajniliajly known
as the Luxembourg. It was hours before I
got out.
The main attraction of course was the,
collection. But perhaps more interesting
for the impressionable young layman was
an explanation I in impeccable Pi-enoh) of
the development of French pamting over
the past fifty or sixty years. It was
lavishly illustrated. And it made some
kind of sense. I think it was for the first
time that day that I looked at modem
art with something more thajn an emo-
tional, and jaundiced, eye.
My hotel bill became embarrassing soon,
after that and I had to leave Paris in a
bit of a hurry. So I never did get a chance
to pursue the subject of modern art. But
I liave noticed glinuners of interest as I
flipped through Life magazine and simi-
lar cultural publicattKins these past few
years, and I kept promising myself that
somethmg would be done about it.
Something has been done. But I didn't
do it, It's all a result of the Hart House
Art Committee, a group with surprising
vitality (and perhaps an over-aotive
thyroid), who have undertaken to supply
some help to the man lost in the con-
fusion of symbols and abstractions which
go under the vague and general title of
"modem airt".
They have arranged an exhibit of
prints which outlianea in fairly simple
terms some of the trends and develop-
ments in modem painting, it ^
lavishly illMstrated — not with orig^dgjl"
but with excellent prints. The text coin*-*
■plete and sometimes incomplete, but al'
ways provocative, is extensive — and sh, ui '
allow you to get at least a gltmmer int,
the subject. The arrangement of prii,r*
and of text has been carefully plaji,,^^

niovtra
behind the current modern art spta.sh
the Print Room (which is that lone hf i"
off the end of the Art GaUery). "We hLv
tried to be objective," he says. And thev
have. The text is Dave's, and took about
a month, he tells me.
"I noticed." he says, "that undergi-adu.
ates in the Art Gallery were often stymied
by what we put up on the walls, ft was
just so much paint to them. So
thought we'd try pointing out some patlu
in the obstraot jungjle." Thoughs of thi^
nature led to a print show designed
show some examples of impressionLsni
something else (which I forget), and hai
culminated in the present show,
Tlie demands made on modern man
are extensive. Or have you tried working
your way thi-oug-h Joyce's Finnegan's
Wake? Or listening to Density 21.,^, bv
Varese? Things like that can be most
confusing. For those who are Intere-sfed
in modem painting, which can often ba
just as confusing a.3 a Joyoe or a Vaiese,
the Art Committee's current show pro-
vides an excellent introductiion and review.
One young man of my acquaintance,
who could never be accused of being
intellectual (in any one of the many
senses In which that poor word is bandied
about) is intrigued by the show. He's tak-
ing it easy — a couple of pages of text a
day. You may find it like bhat too: a little
too much to swallow at once. But it's
w^rth taking a crack at. Light in the
dark corners of the mind is painful, but
worth the effort.
Colombo Plan
Reconsidered
Editor, The Varsity:
I have read the letter of
Messrs. Butt and Mohammed.
May I say the report on my
speech before the International
Relations Club was a complete
misrepresentation of my point of
view. Had they been present I do
not believe they would have been
disturbed by anything I said.
This could be verified by discus-
sion with any member of the
club who was present at the dis-
cussion. I can understand their
feeling of dismay at reading the
report, since I felt very much the
same on reading it myself,
Ali Tayy^,
Grsd Studies.
(Ed, note — In his letter, Mr.
Tayyeb refers to complaints about
a speech of his report in The
Varsity of Feb. 13. and headlined
"Tayyeb Blasts Colombo Plan."
In an interview yesterday, Mr.
Tayyeb explained he had said the
Colombo Plan would be more valu-
able i{ both the students who come
over to Canada, and their teachers,
knew in detail what was to be
studied. He had received the im-
preflsion, he said, that in many cases
the students were not certain what
to expect when they came here,
and were confused when they did
arrive. This lack of detailed plan-
ning was due to over-iealousness
on the pari o( both East and West
to implement the Flan, he said he
had added.
He had used Colombo Plan stu-
dents at the Ontario College of
education and Parliament Buildin^^
as an example of this need of more
detail In planning, he said, but had
never said that students studying
there "never leam anything valu-
able.' Be also said yesterday that
be did not say there were bo tech-
nical advances In Indim, as reported.
He also stated he had told the
meeting that he thought the
Colombo Plan "the most worth-
while experiment In International
co-operation tried by either East
or West, but that It could siUl uae

"Religion, with literature, art

by the scieitces, can provide the

Hon," President Sidney Smith said
in an address on the "Unity of

Canadian Institute Saturday
flight.
The problems facing humanity
»^ay cannot be solved by science
»lone. Dr. Smith said, nor cah the
jesponsibillty for them be laid at
door of the scientist alone. The
JJllution lies in the equal sharing

by the majority of our fellow-citi-
zens, and which, perhaps, influ-
ence the loves of educated people
more than we care to admit". Dr.
Smith said.
The fault lies in ourselves, not in
the stars. Dr. Smith said. Refer-
ring to the well publicized English
tests at the University, Dr. Smith
expressed the hope that the citi-
zens of the Dominion of Canada,
"repeat: Dominion", can, in gen-
eral, express themselves in "the
new Queen's English."
"I do not believe that there is
one type of mind which is purely
scientific and another that is pure-
ly humanistic, and that never the
twain shall meet". Dr. Smith said.
Tlie distinction is not between two
types of mind, but between two
ways in which each person's mind
should be used, depending on the
subject matter he is considering,
he added.
Any good scientist, Dr. Smith
said, can look at the broad objec-
tives of humanity, and relate his
life and work to those ends which
he judges to be desirable. As a
citizen he can do his part to influ-
ence Uie politics and education of
his country in the direction of the
best, but he will find that the fun-
damental truths about man's exist-
ence and aspirations are not sus-
ceptible of proof, in the same way
that a cheorem can be proved, Dr.
Smith declared.
The most pressing problem of
higher education is the integration
of the sciences and the humanities.
Dr. Smith said. He gave a tribute
to the staffs of scientific depart-
ments and the teachers in profes-
sional schools for "the vigor and
spirit with which they have dis-
charged their obligations, so that
their offerings, on the whole, be-
came more attractive to young, in-
quiring and venturesome minds
than niany o£ the Arts courses
which retained the content, and
were given in the manner of the
nineteenth century."
It is to be regretted. Dr. Smith
added, that the teachers in the hu-
manities "have not always mani-
fested the contagious Joy in their
classes to be found in other divi-
sions of our universities.
Dr Smith added that U is en-
couraging that the profeessors are
realizing anew what they have
to offer is a complement for the
theories and discoveries of science
which when integrated and unified

Blues Edge U of M

On the strenjrth of an overtime goal by rookie Jim Wilkes, fehe Varsity Blues man-
aged to etlge the Montreal Carabins 5-4 Friday night, and thus keep their championship
hopes^ alive. It wa« an uphill struggle most of the way for the Blues who in the first two
periods were sadly outplayed by the fast skating Montrealers.

FIVE FLOORS
For Men Only
By JERRY BROWN
A majestic, gray building in the
perpendicular Gothic style, a world
famous structure steeped in tra-
dition, is Hart House.
Its purpose is to advance the
knowledge of music, the arts and
letters, and to encourage "supple-
ness of limb" among undergradu-
ates.
It is easily recognized by the
chimneys stacked in banlcs of four.
Most of the drafty corridors and
pleasant rooms are familiar to male
undergraduates and to a few fe-
male undergraduates. But there
are many things about this place
that would take one person years
to find out. Only three of the
five floors of Hart House are used
and known to the average under-
grad.
Suppose we take a tour of Hart
House with Dave Gardner, assis-
tant to the Warden. He suggests
starting in the sub-basement under
the kitchen. Down in -this musty
black cellar are housed the filtra-
tion plant for the pool, storage
rooms for food and the back en-
trance to the Theatre rehearsal
room. Adjoining the rehearsal
room are two small dust-covered
closets with old, old stage props
from former productions.
Up now through the kitchen,
where over one million meals are
prepared every year. Immaculately
clad chefs work with modern
equipment There are now six
walk-In freezers where, we are as-
sured, bodies of students who didn't
wear a tie and Jacket to the Great
Hall are not kept.
The Great Hall with Its almost
Church-like Gothic architecture is
. one of the most fascinating places
in Hart House. On the north and
south walls are the coats of arms
of Universities, of the First World
War, and of the Allied Nations. In
this ultra-distinguished hall are
held Sunday evening concert.? and
dances. And, of course, it is tlie
eating Mecca for a number of mala
on the campus. The two strange
towers, one m the south-west cor-
ner in the Great Hall and one in
the north-west comer outside the
Great Hall, both lead* up to the
faculty dining room.
Up these cramped stairs, g!3n^
ing out of the small apertures we
are led by Gardner, to the faculty
loxmge and thence to the dining
room. Windows of this dining room
look out on the Great Hall allow-
ing the professors a view of
eating masses.
Ascending more stairs to
third floor, actually the fifth, where
there is another lounge, this
the faculty and graduates, ven
tastefully furnished, this loui^J
approaches the perfect in restr
atmospheres.
One of the least known paJ^^°!
the House is next on the tour.
guest rooms of Hart House are ^
the third floor over the Debawa
Room and the Faculty BiUla'"
Room. These very exclusive gu^
rooms are for the use of y^.

visitors. One of the more ii^^erest-
ing of these rooms is one c*^^

'Tlie only place where the mo-

of the audience members record-
their stand on the question at
beginning of the debate and
jgain at the end of the debate. The
opinion is marked in degrees such

one which causes the greatest de-
pee of shift of opinion.
Americans entertained the Cana-
dian team lavishly during the tour,
at one time Shepherd had his din-
jer surrounded by 65 sorority
nembers. "Of course, most of my
ioughls were of my wife and child

cal student. '•However", he add-
id, "American generosity made
Itpo^tible for me to return to the
DTDU some of the expense money
irtilch was given to me.*'
Organi2ation was the most im-

leehng, on looking at lecture no-
Ices with complete instructions to

A friendly French-Canadian wha
believes in better relations between
French and EngUsh Canada Is this
year's Gray Lecturer. The Hon.
Onesime Gagnon, Quebec Provin-
cial Treasurer. wlU speak on "Cul-
tural Developments in the Province
of Quebec— Minoriti^' Rights and
PrlvUeges under the EducaUon
System- to night at 8:15 in Convo-
cation Hall
Gagnon became interested In
betterhig Inter-Canada relation-
ships because he feels that Canada
Is an "unimown country". "The
residents of Canada do not know
each other." he says. "Each racial
group is completely ignorant of tha
other's traditions. Ontarians know
that Quebec exists, but they doijt
know its history. As a result peoplo
are sotnetimes influenced by preju-
dice. When we meet, we come to
appreciate each other's respeotiva
qualities."
Gagnon has done much to further
his Ideal of better relatlonsliipa
through better understanding. Ha
has been active in the Visitcs Inter-
provinciales shice 1945. and helped
to get Uie Quebec government to
make a yearly grant of $3,000. These
he considers to be a v^y worth-
while approach to the problem. He
pomts with pride to the fact that
last year, and for the past several
years, at least 600 students have
been on exchange visits.
"The two great races can make a
larger contribution to the develop-
ment and welfare of our country,*
Gagnon feels. Canada's two lan-
guages and cultures should ba
known to everybody. As a young
men he borrowed money to study at
Oxford for a year.- All his children
have studied in England. English-
speaking Caiiada. or the Umted
States, and his eldest daughter,
Renee, was an official In Vlsitea
Interprovinclales until her recent
marriage.
There has been mucli progress hi
relationships in the past 30 years,
Gagnon says. The universities ara
doing mucii to bring the races to-
gether. Exchanges of professors and
student weekends are very valuable.
Gagnon was a lecturer in law at
Laval before he became a provin-
cial minister.
The Duncan and John Gray Me-
morial Lecture was founded by
George Gray In memory of his two
sons, to promote their ideal of a
xmited Canada. Jolm Gray visited
Quebec on a Visite Interprovinclala
in 1940, and was so impressed with
tlie kindness shown him tliat ha
decided to devote his life to bring-
ing about better understanding be-
tween French and English Cana-
dians. When he died on active ser-
vice during World War U. hia
father estabUshed tills foundation,
which is used each year to bring a
distinguished French -Canadian to
give a talk on Fiench Canada.

IVORLD-l'REMIiERE
Socrates By Jupiter
Tt Is not often that one has flhe dhflnce to wlt-
nesA tile world -pTeandere of a play. But havnig
attended one such mst Friday niglht wihen fthe
Jupiter Tlieatre presented Lister Sinclair's SOC-
RATES, I feel that I can say wi*h some confidence
that world- premieres are exciting and thdiaiing.
Never have I been part of an audicaice tihad gave
KwAi uiidivided afctenticm to a balky and repetitious
ploy. Twice during the performance — aA Che eaid
of Soorates' apology to the assembly, amd after
his dying speech — there were pauses when tiie
audience by common oonsent refradaied from in-
tenu[>ting, and Uie whole Museum Theaitine was
tilled wiUi an hyfrnobic electric silence.
The considerable talk afterwaa>ds on the meiits
and demerits of the play and performaaioe was
heated, and in consequence I feel tihat in ooxleir to
deal adequately with the play itself I must dwell
on it in detail later this week.
At the moment it Is more to tihe point to saj^
that where Soarmtes was given a qudck death in-
Btead of justice by the AUhendan magistrates, diirec-
tor Esse Ljungih and the actors gave more tihon
Justice to Mfl-. Sinclair's play. It was tireated with
respect (in some cases with love), wlibhout which
it mig(ht have failed utterly bo maJce contaot witii
ttoe audience.
The settings by Larry McCance were effectively
toieciBted; they suggested tihe scene without going
fento debatl. and more important still, they made
an impossiibly small stage seem j^cious and deep,
Mr, McCanoe by a more advanbageoua use of tIhe
bcick wall, might have Mig^ested tihe sudden Ul-
lumim-tion of dawn as Socantee dies, or the oaa-
■pitracy spioning in the dark in Act n.
Mr. Ljungh must be congratulated. TeciiniceJ-
the play mo\'ed accurately from scene to scene:
tlie pace was always rigiht, and with the exceptdon
of the scene between Socrates and tihe soldiers,
the mood that belonged to eaoh grouping of charac-
ters was well established and conve^'ed to the
audience. The exception emphasized a general
tiirat-nigiht groping i<jr lines; each of the soidders
acted withiin bhe radius of his body, plaj'ing bhedr
■ lunny lines strictly for lauglis and quite otilivious
bo the fact that tlhey were getting a le6s::<n in
philosophy. One migihit qruobble too over the dhorus-
Une of Socnates' friends telling hdm about the
oracQe. When a fore-stage has been added, wfliy
Dot use It?
The first scene was the weakest in the siiow,
and wlhat sa\'ed Act I was the scena wibh tflie
Boagistrates. They all made the most ol their lines,
Bihowed tftie umoertainty of authority, and tihus ttie
need for "expedient''*. Oolin Baton as Phillip tend-
ed to listen to the sound of his voice, ae to a
lesser degree did John Atkinson (Triptoleimius).
Mex MoKee as Cyrus was more positive, which was
in keeping with his part. This Greek Maoohievelli
developed here and tn the trial an argumetnt that,
as presented, was more logical aJid inteUigeflit than
that put forward by Soorates.
These magistrates acted as a grooip and fooussed
within tlhemfielves the baseness of bhe accusers, and
the sainbliness of Soorates. Mumray Westgate. the
accuser Lycon, was monoton-jus and lacked that
smouidetring viteJlty that flared up so well in his
fellow accuser Melebus (Doug Haekins). Robert
OtmMie. the Judas, Anytus. was powerfully sub-
d^ued and he made as much of the part as there
was bn the lines.
Socrates' friends were all weM iodividiiiailflzed,
and bhe mood of sincere friendship that they
created at'AgaChon's (I>avid Gaimerr) dinner was
superb. Onto (Donald Glen) in his speech to Love
captuired the essence of the scene. I couldn't hear
ali the words, but the feeling he conveyed was
profound, delicate and seemed to envelop the whole
group in a bond of love. This feeling was exempli-
fied by all the others in their own way — Agathon
kn his geneixjsiity of feeadng, Aristophanes (Paul
KDigman) in has rich humour, and Phaedo (Ivan
■niomley-Hall) in his youthful unselfishness. The
feelong cenried over bo make the last scene agoniz-
ingly beajutdful. Christopher Plummer as Alcibifldes,
the noble impetuous rake was also part of this
group, and his perfarmaince was colourful] and at-
tractive.
Frank Peddae playing Socrates was the srtand-
out of the play. He outdid even my expectations,
and I have known him aJl my life. I would have
liked has Socrates bo be as mockiaig with his eyes
as with his smile; he might have been., then, more
directly challenging. But Mr. Peddle broiught. to-
gether the various elemenits of the play and bhe
personalities of the other actors. Socrates' wanvnth
of feeJing, keenness of mind and moral strength
in the prwtuotjon obviated the playwright's slanit-
Ing of bhe argument in Socrates' favour. Mr. Sin-
clair did not foresee that an actor could over-
beflaffK» his side of bhe scales of justdce.
The last scene — the deabh by hemJock — was
by far bhe most moving. 'Vibh the friends gather-
ed around, Socrates' death as portrayed by Mr.
Peddie fulfilled aU the qualities that Plaito end
Sinclair claimed for bhe philosopher.

balcony viewpoint
By DAVID PEDDIE
In his production of Shakespeare's RJCHARD H Rotoert Gill ha»
piwen agaan tihat he is a master at the art of spectacle, and that
witfh a reasonably good cast, he can provide vitality and purpose tg
bolster Shakespeare's presentation of history in human terms.
Many hold that RICH-*RD 11 IS the best of bhe histories, ajuj
certainly there are many facte and facets to this play. But i
lost iaitetrest im muoh of bhe historical detail, for I see Shakespeare
ohanging his mind in the middle of the pla,y: he Mmself forgets thft
facts to give us an aocoiint of "despair" — - despair as felt by a maaj
pulled dowm from high pjsiticm. This despair makes Riohord lose hia
wits — not oomipletely, but he is distraught, and as acted by Gwt^
MoCowam, Riohoird's madness makes us sympathize more foor the maai,
who as a king wae foolish, petty and unjust.
Because of this change of emphasis, many of the scenes seemed
to me umnecessary. I imagine Mr. Gill has to please the co-eds, but
tiie scene with the Duchess of Gloucester, the one with the g«rdenera
and another between the Duke and Duohess of York were irrelevant.
The first scene also was too long just to he^ two men cursing each
other.
Shakespeare's verse in RICHARD II is far from being good or easy
to speak. There are many awkward rho-ming couplets: most of at^a
hnes are bcamcy and unmatural, and some of the archaic fig^uires of
speech present dnffioulties bo the aotors — paraJlel sentences without
end and involved pareaitheses.
McGU) overcame the diffuseness of the play and" many nmat
difficulties by his superior staging. The set designed by Jean Baimilir
was revodutionary — modem Elizabethan. It suggested a castle v.^heji
fully lit, bu(t it was also used in sections by means of very clever lig^ht-
isng. The scene of Bichaixi's assassination with the shadow oast by
the prison window showed this to best advantage. The lighting W6«
exceptionaJ. Each scene unfolded like a new day, the lig4>t slowly
driftung acroes the cafitle.
Adding to these mechanics were new costumes, designed by Marion
Wa'ker of the theatre staff, which gave colour bo the production fund
seemed on all points to be just righ't-^iting both period and mdividmi
oharacteaB. Thas technical flawlessness sdiowed up the deficiencies ot
many of the actors but it made ShaJiespeate's artificial portrayal ol
history believable. The scene in wMch Bolin-gbroke grasps the crown
wa^ human history that flowed easUy and na,buraLly, each of tJ«
characters c.ming forwai-d and retirimg as reouia-ed and the whole
budlt up steadily to Richard's heai't-rendrng -Whither you will,
so I wesre from your sight".
There was a general competence amone the actors that is not often
present in Hart House pivxiucbions. Among the smaller parts, Mowbray,
The Bishop of Cariisae and Bushy stood out as definite characters,
who were more than chess-men in a pagertt. Rosemary Sowiby, though
not always audiWe, was a gu-acious queen, and in her fareweU to
Rdohard she touched our hearts.
Frank Laior and Robert Jackson gave cilever portrayals a'^ bla
Dukes of NOfrthumberlflind and York. Mr. Lalor was the clever liaixi
poMjtioian, yet his weakening laefore the queen was excellently oon-
oeived. Mr. Jaciison suggested bhe impotence of old York and the
dilemma lacing a man who tries to do both his legeil and his moral
duty.
Hem7 Jackman's Bolingbroke was wrongly ohjaracterized. Mr,
Jackman wee wonderfuily war-like — a proud, fiery, spirited, rathei
vengeful man. But there seems more evideince to support the ™ff
that this usiuper was cold and ruthless in his revenge on "cousin''

Ronald Williams as John of Gaunt had a quiet dig^nity and a good

As for Mr. MoCowan's Richard II, seldom has so consistent fl

Two
Operas
Draw Top Hats
►the bartered bride
^id a flurry of dress suits, and
a few silk hats, another To-
Opera Festival got under-
over the weekend at the Roy-
^ Alexandra. For their opening
performance, the Royal Conserva-
tory
Opera did an almost entirely
pew production of the same opera
,iih which they first shocked To-
ronto audiences into recognition
' rly in 1947, Smetana's The Bar-
^red Bride.
the looks of stunned amazement
jat greeted the 1947 production
have passed off, and the company
must now stand on its merits. This
year's production will bear com-
parison with their very best, and
with the best anywhere. It caught
both tbe fire and the wistfulness
nf Smetana's wonderfully fresh
music and translated them into
jtaee movement and color in the
pjost brilUant way.
Contributing more than any sin-
lie actor to the total effect were
the orchestra and chorus, with the
conductor, Nicholas Goldschmidt.
They needed a short warming-up
period, but after tbe first act the
performance was simply superb.
I could hardly imagine more vivid
singing and playing.
Tbe central role of the marriage-
brolier. Kezal, was taken by Jan
Itubes. His great height and pow-
erlul voice, as well as his beauti-
lui vulgar costume saw to it that
he was the centre of every scene
in which he appeared. His ten-
dency slightly to overact the
coarsely comic element in the
part may be attributed to his dif-
liculty in making himself under-
stood, for he still has a decided
Czech accent.
As usual with this company, the
(mailer parts were, in general,
given to singers of no smaller mer-
it than the principals. I was par-
ticularly Impressed with the par-
ents of the lovers, each of whom
became a clearly-defined charac-
ter in voice, costume and action.
They were played by Donald Gar-
rard. Louise Roy, James Milligan,
and Nora Conklin— every one of
them an artist in his own right.
Tbe performance of Elizabeth
Benson Guy as the heroine. Marie,
was a little disappointing. It is two
rs since she appeared in opera,
and the power of her voice, so
evident when she sang Donna El-
vu-a in Don Giovanni at that time,
''as quite lacking on Thursday
evening. The conductor held the
orchestra to a minimum during
her songs, and yet she still failed
to make herself heard. Her act-
ing is as appealing as ever, how-
ever, and her quick smile endear-
ed her to the audience.
The infectious gaiety of the oi>-
fi^ and Its production provided
'arousing beginning for the opera
Ipstival. And even an opera-hard-
ened Toronto audience was once
again entranced by a comic opera
performed in the best comic style.
THE MAGIC FLUTE
The Magic Flute, on the other
^fitid, is a very different matter,
^he scene of The Bartered Bride is
^hernia, a geographic and ethnic
^'itity; the scene of The Magic
'"'Ufe is the Orient, a vast region
1*^ the mind as far as this opera
J? concerned. Not since the per-
i^mance of Gluck's Orpheus in
'^8 has the Conservatory Opera
^tt«mpted anything as profound.
The success of any such venture
bourfd to be conditioned by tiie
J^eptivity of the listener. I knew
i Was going to be impressed, and
J Was. What was more interesting
^ "le was that the members of a
large delegation from a girls school
who sat behind me. were also quite
clearly impressed. No lear of dis-
cipline can impose on girls the
silence these maintained in the
Fire- and Water scene, or at the
magic moment when the temple
door first opens.
Once again, the chief credit for
a first-rate musical performance
goes to the conductor, Nicholas
Goldschmidt. He had his troubles
on occasion with the orchestra,
and once was forced to shush a
too-eager member of the chorus,
but he produced a performance
that cohered. Given his playing
of the great contrapunal overture,
one could deduce his attitude to-
wards the score, and find that he
never deviated from his announced
intention.
For Instance, thoogh he refused
steadfastly to linger on phrases,
yet he was not afraid of pausing
very deliverately sometimes to let
a point sink in. The result was
a performance of great breadth
without a trace of sentimentality.
The Fire and Water scene, particu-
larly, became the fateful thing it
should be. wiKi-a steady, inexorable
rhythmic drive.
On the stage, the opera suffered
somewhat from a weak Sarastro.
Although RusseU Skitch is a fine
musican, he has not got the depth
of voice necessary for the part,
either in smging or in speaking.
Without his domination, some
scenes lost their meaning. However,
at the very end, his brief and glori-
ous utterance had all the requisite
power and solemnity. (I was told
that his intonation on the low
notes, sometimes shaky on Friday
evening, was much improved on
Saturday.)
Among the others, there is hard-
ly room for choice. Mary Morrison
surprised me with the intensity of
her Pamina; she has come a long
way since last year. As might be
expected, Lois Marshall's ringing
voice made her a dramatic Queen
of the Night, despite the fact that
she was not at her very best Fri-
day evening, and also had some
trouble with Intonation.
Among the smaller parts, Donald
Garrard once again gave an out-
standing performance, this time as
the high priest who first meets
Tamino. Ernest Adams as the
Moor, Monostatos. surprised me by
his excellent singing of the tenor
role, in spite of the fact that his
voice Is usually a baritone.
Andrew MacMillan, who has for
many years been the clown of the
company, gave me a special pleasure
as the child-like Papageno. He
played the part in the Harlequin
tradition, addressing the audience
with such good-humor that no one
felt embarrassed.
Settings for this opera present
very great difficulty. The highly
impractical sequence of short scenes
in various strange localities makes

Prize Photographs
Of High Calibre
The exhibition of photographs by tJhe members
of Hart House is tihe resulrt of many hours ovea-
various trays with chemical solutaons ajid a careful
iuds:ing by the members of various Camera Cluibs.
All the photographs shown are of a hi^^h tech-
nical calibre. aJthough some suffer by ovesr-emlarge-
ment.
Most of tile primts are campoedtionally satis-
faotory.
Some received prizes, some honourable mention.
It Is impossible to fail to note that all tihe prize^
winning prints are highly pdcborial to the extent
of being a little tAvious in their appeaJ. It is
disappointing to be fjioed to reali -3 that Che
photo-fans aire so easily swayed by t*ie first and
only impact a picture of tSiie sort oan give.
For simplification. H is possible to classify
roughly all photographs into three groups; rep-
resen tation of appearance ; capturing of a com -
bination of events, and finaJly the revelation of
Bome jmheirent spetio-visuail ta-uths. Eooh of these
gtroups, combined with the rudiments of comipoei-
tian through selection of the significant and with
tiie tricks uindeir the enlarges, can produce aesthet-
ically satisfactory results. But if photography is
placed on the same level witCh other pictarioil eurt,
it m-ust contain at least some revelaition of the
less obvioTJB. Art does not exist without shairp
observation and insight of the airUst. A photogiraph,
Mke a painjting. must state something which en-
niohes the spectator's visual (and preferably aJso
some other) exiperienoe. Like a novel, it mjust not
repeat hhe same old story, even if a new form
gives it a metre appealing appearaaice. If these
oonditions are not satisfied, we are dealaaig witti
tftie draft, rather than art. of photogiraiphy.
These questions arise: is photography to be
judged by photo-crafLsmen. or like other surt. by
aesbhetically-minded connoisseurs? Do camera
olubs contribute to the art of plioto^aphy or, in
other words, do tliey care about photography which
is just a different medium of artistic expression
and not only a good craftsman's achievement?
To return to the present exhibition of photo-
graphs, it does not seem necessaj-y to mention tlhe
honoured prints. They speak for themselves.
It is nece&saj-y, however, to menUon the follow-
ing piotuj-es. whioh, for the purp^ of this review,
constitute the highlights of the show. STAIRWAY-
AEOLIAN HALL, by Norfolk: STREET PARADE,
by Hanoid Sumberg; MEMORY, by Norfolit- HIS
FIRST PAT. by Woodley: QUIET STREET, by
Sumberg, and CLEAN START by Adrian Adamson.
All these prints show a sharp, observant eye,
and an extraordinai-j' understanding of tlie sub-
ject-matter. In the case of STREET PARADE,
we are shown the spectators raitJher than the
spectacle. The ohildi-en are not only Individoiala,
but also a composition of scattered shapes and
patterned fabrics again the< hard baokgr,>i]nd of
the street pa\-emen.t. It captui-es the losing po-t-
tem of shapes and textures which existed for only
a moment. THE MEMORY is an example of
photxjgraphy used not to produce a good print only,
but Bfi a well corvtrolled medium of adiievir^ an
artistic end.
The show wiU remain in the Gallea-j' till Maroh
first. It will be reviewed by Mr. P. E. Moffatt on
Wednesday. Feb. 27. at 5 pjn. AH undergraduates
are invited to art^end.

simple, easily-moved sets a neces-
sity; yet they must be colorful and
very exotic.
The solution was a set of back-
drops that reminded me of a
scien-tiction addict's idea of Mar-
tian scenery. The complete avoid-
ance of any resemblance to nature
has its advantages. The chief de-
fect, a rather serious one, was the
use of the opening backdrops for
a later scene in an entirely dif-
ferent .situation. Also, the setting
for the Fire and Water scene, ex-
cellent in other respects, tended
to muffle the chorus of triumph at
its close.
I was also diBappointed by the
fact that the duet of the two
priests was cut. This little piece,
which breathes the spirit of the
opera takes only about one muiute
in performance. I thought the au-
dience was cheated of a real dehght
when this number was cut.
It is not difficult to picture to
oneself a perfect performance of
The Bartered Bride, and the Opera
Festival performance of this opera
approached this ideal. A perfect
performance of The Magic Flute is
almost Impossible to imagine: there
are too many inherent difficulties
in the work, and each performance
is likely to be different from every
other.
In its own way, the Opera Festi-
val production of The Magic Flute
attains a real perfection of its own.
It is self-sufficient, and without
reference to the outer world, it
achieves satisfaction of a very in-
timate kind.

OAC-OVC 3rd
By JOE SCANLON
Intercollegiate wrestling made_^its
debut as a team sport at Hart
House over the weekend. The Ca-
nadian championships, fought un-
der N.C-A.A. (American) rules, end-
ed with Western the new Senior
champs and Toronto once more In-
termediate mat kings.
Final senior team score was:
Western 34, Toronto 31. OAC-OVC
29. MoGlll 25, and Queen's 23. The
intenraediate finals weren't so close;
the Blues had 50, Western 37. and
OAC-OVC were far behind with 18.
There were only tliree entries in
the intermediate championships.
■nie titles were evenly divided
with each college, except defending
ihamps McGUl, earning two. The
f?edmen had some tough luck at
.his meet; three of their bouts were
:o close that the referee had to de-
cide the winner. While mentioning
he referees we might add that the
6WO of them. Warren Gregory and
S,obert Wilson of Buffalo, did an
jxcellent job handling 58 bouts in
;wo days.
Every team captain ended as a

.37 pounds. Hatashita pinned his
irst opponent and then decisioned

Senior Vic ran true to form last
Friday as they walloped Dent A's,
8-0 to move on to wliat should be
a bang-up final series this week
against Trinity A's. The dentists
skated with their opponents but
Vic seemed to have the game well
in hand at all times. The Scarlet
and Gold had a big edge in finish-
ing oif their plays.
Vic showed three two-goal men:
Andrews, Koughan and Walton.
The defence corps headed by Cap-
tain Andrews and Mactiim was
very strong. The game became
steadily rlugher, ending in a couple
of fights in the tliird period. Nine
minor penalties were distributed,
5 to the dentists and 4 to Vic.
The first period pace was too
fast to last. Vic went two up in
the first ten minutes. The first
at 7:27 was a picture play as
Marshall drew the defence over
and then put Walton In the clear.
At 9:45 Koughan slapped in An-
drews' rebound. White also drew
an assist. That was all the scor-
ing for that frame. During a couple
of penalties, Vic threw up an ef-
fective defence.
They added two more In the sec-
ond stanza. Andrews scored one
while both teams were short-
handed and at 12:30, Thomas'
screened shot found the net. To-
ward the end of the period, the
play slowed up considerably.
They sped up again in the third
and roughened up. too. Vic got a
pair of early goals, Koughan from
White at 2:51 and Andrews from
White again at 3:46. About half
way through the period, a brawl
threatened to break out but cooler
heads prevailed. Another one did
break out in the 16th minute and
Clumpus and Locke of Dents and
Koughan of Vic took rougliing pen-
alties for their part in the melee.
Vic added insult to hijury in the
final two minutes. Walton pushed
lone in from a scramble at 18:50
and Marshall scored from Walton
at 19 :U.
while Hubling had an easier tioK,
earning a second round fall in hi!
first bout. ^
Captain Steckle of OAC-Ovq
took a fall from Toronto's Robin
son to become heavyweight cham'
pion and Ike Lanier, the Queen-«

next bout and Berard dropped the

«
A distinguished, white-haired jam-nalLst in this
oiby with a reputation for a sharp wit and wide
baclcground got together over a oup of zeA recent-
ly with a professor at this u.mve;sity. two
minutes flat Che j^ua-nalist had summed up to his
sa,tisfaction the character ol tray's seriouM-miiid-
ed students. It occuiTed alter they ha4 taken part
in a discussion group composed of about tatrty
siioh students.
The trouble with studan;ts today is that they're
too philosophioaJ. Mr. Journalist said. Not only do
tbey take themselves toj sei-iously but they spend
their time arguing on purely abstract, vogue gen-
eralities. Ten or fifteen years ago. he ooutinued,
tliey would never have talked like that.
And the professor agreed.
This is not an isolated case. People who spend
their time observing a.nd taking pairt m student
activities have passed the present crop off. as aii
ineffectual bunch of mental milksoiM. These Sooth
Sayers sadly watah an epidemic of maggots in t)he
forms of defeatism, cynicism, passivity and fear,
gnawina away at the innards of tJie students' mind.
Reaily it's a bit much to take. Forever being
oontvicbed of a!il manner of wjongdoings from not
taking Iwed of ouii- responsibility toward campus
activities to an overabundance of aimless exuber-
ajvoe. now we are being convicted of being a col-

stiitute protection against this cold, cruel world.

Brotherhood
Last week was dedicated to brofcherhood — al; least on
the North American continent. The Varsity ignored it, par-
tially in reaction to the seven day obeisan-ce with its unfor-
tunate corollary (the heat's off, back to work). More impor-
tant, we were sincerely puzzled as to the meaning and
application of the mellifluous campaign slogans.
What is brotiherhood to the six room house dweller sur-
rounded by similar houses with like inhabitants? "Love thy
neighbour", regardless of race, creed or colour. Yet the usual
homeowner picks a district where his neighbour is a reflec-
tion of himself. And the rest of the city has little interest
in what the next door holds.
Discrimination is simply the semi-civilized expression
of the primitive dislike for all that is different and strange.
For a savage, a foreigner was fair game, an enemy to be
killed on sight. More sophisticated ages have devised subtler
tortures for the outgroup. Yet, varying forms of discrim-
ination have the virtue of preserving minority identity.
On the other hand, the civilized society produces an
antidote for discrimination almost as poisonous as the thing
itself. Witness the professional tolerator. He who collects
foreign accents and strange creeds with the same avidity
someone else employs in searching out Renaissance novels
' wid Cezanne watei-coloui-s. And all with a benign smugness
which gazes at the shortcomings of his fellowmen with God-
like wonder and disapproval.
Yet, how do all the societies for the prevention of dis-
crimination and all the anti-discrimination legislation, hope
to erase intolerance of "race, creed or colour". They can't
really. Rather, they may hope to change the focus of our
intolerance.
And victims of hate and prejudice do change. No longer
do Orange Protestants and Roman Catholics attack each
other so vengefully. The heat has somewhat spent itself
end the spectre of twelfth of July pai*ades arft becoming
woefully anachronistic sights in Southern Ontario.
' Again, Jews in the southern United States are quite
an integral part of the white community. The full force of
intolerance is saved for the negro.
' Discrimination is practised against minorities which
show the least chance of being assimilated, particularly when
they wave the red flag of defiance. Torontonians will allow
the Eskimo to go his way in peace, yet, we imagine that there
would still be something of an uproar if the Daughtei-s of
the American Revolution celebrated Independence Day in
Massey Hall.
The most brutal aspect of intolerance is the pitting of
group judgement against group judgement. Individuals
within these groups become incapable of communicating
with each other. And, in extreme cases, it adds up to war.
We wonder, however, whether all the well-intentioned
advocates of brotherhood on this continent aren't missing an
opportunity. By readjusting the focus of intolerance, by
encouraging .discriminating against communists, they could
divert public attention from the piffling and anachronistic
Idificriminations at present.
Fight discrimination vrith discrimination! After all,

So whei-e's the spirit, Where's the vigor and
enthusiasm. What happened to bhe students with
ideas, the oam>pus muse and the crusadears — these
are among the questions one asks.
It all adds up to a distiu-bing indication that
students play amund with theories, study the past
divorced from present and philosophical theories
separated from practical applioa-tion both in the
oommunity at loirge and on the campus. One ot
the best examples is the consistent approval of the
' principle of Russian student exchaaige but a i-g,
fusal to take a stand on the vLsit in pi-actise.
Warden Igmatieff. of Hart House, spent last
summer with a troupe of University of Toronto
9tuden.ts in Finland. You would expect the Finnish
students to be cynical and apathetic, he said, but
they are not. They have a sense of faith in the
future, in working together to build a better
world. A'nd they were doing it by buiilding them-
selves a technical school community on the out.
skirts of Helsinki. He found this echoed in many
parts of Europe.
What bothers the Warden most is that he feels
students have reached a total impasse. They have
blindly accepted bhe world their pairents handed
down to them. At the same time, he said, students
have allowed their latitude of ideas to dimtniali
hioreasingly without putting up a fig'ht.
It's what this means for the future tjhat con-
cerns the Warden boo. He doesn't Like the prospecta
at all.
Take it for what it's worth, but these are
popubtr ideas.
Of couiw, the»re aire apolx>«!ists for. these condi-

Lot of listening amd talking in student giroups,

social and economic insecurity arising from the
depression luave been taken care of by government
social welfaxe programs. Studenits. he said, seem to
concentrate now on finding a reasonable set ot
values. They are more prone to wonder how people
get along with each other and where man stands
m relation to his fellows. A sort of a psychological
reorien taction. As a result, he said, it is easy for
people to get tihe inipression that students ara
sceptics and defeatists. Actually the problems are
aimplo" more intangible, harder to put youa- finger
on.
Well, after mu'lling it over, I've decided to as!t
a few more questions instead of sticking my neck
out and coming to a few Ulfated and dogmaXiz
oonolusions. Perhaps there still are students wlio
dare to strike a match near an inflammable object.
And pea-haps, our ephemwal set of values are
highly inflammable.
But I tihrow it out: Mentail milksops oomiplacent,
overawed and apathetic? Or unsettled, unresolved
and undetermined?
Orchids For NFCUS
Editor, The Varsity:
I am writing this letter to you
to register my great disgust with
the thinking behind your edi-
torial in Thursday's Varsity.
In this article you make a
complete damnation of the
NPCUS executive- for the appar-
ent failure to jump on the band-
wagon of student enthusiasm re;
the Russian student exchange.
You claim that they (the NFCUS
executives) have missed "a golden
opportunity for everlasting fame"
by not taking immediate action
on, this question. I would like to
wholeheartedly disagree with you.
In disagreeing I would like to
commend the action of the
NFCUS executive for the very
prudent manner in which they
are approaching a very touchy
problem. They have decided to
completely investigate all possi-
bilities of such an exchange, and
report these findings in a very
objective manner to the next
NFCUS convention. To my mind
this is a far more valid approach
to the problem; it is certainly
more rational than running off
half cocked because some stu-
dents question an earlier decision
of the executive.
You ask in your editorial
"whether the clarity and pre-
ciseness of next year's Informa-
tion will not be offset by a lack
of student interest." I would say
no. If, after complete investiga-
tion, the tour is found feasible, I
believe that just as much en-
thusiasm will be engendered by
the student bodies of Canada.
Yes, the enthusiasm will be there.
asm. By this I mean that the
entliuslasm was not aimed at
whatever good may come from the
exchange, but rather, that the
enthusiasm was built up by a
small minority whose prime in-
terest was to use this tour as a
taking off point in a carte
blanche condemnation of NFCUS.
And I am not so sure that such
was the case.
No, I cannot agree with you
that the primary criteria for ac-
tion is mass enthusiasm. Let us
be rational and approach the
problem of university students.
Let us examine the plan and see
if it will work before we attempt
to put it into practice.
In closing I would just like to
add a few words of thanlcs that
some of the more Intellige"'
members of the student socielt
are in a position where they
able to stop such 'snowballiii=
from resuting into action. Mf
congratulations to Syd Wax ana
Jean DeMargerie. ,
L. J. Brennan, J'-
III St. Mike*-
Editor's Note: With Mr. Bren-
nan, we agree wholeheartedly
approving the comprehensivcnes'
of the Executive's plan for
vestigating the whole Russia"
question. Yet, we cannot
prove the inordinate delay a' "
the Executive meeting, and ,
of recognition of the issue 'ts^ ■
Perhaps in the future. Execut'^*
meetings should be scheduled
before Christmas.

VOL. LXXI NO. 91 THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO Thursday, February 28. 1952"
SA C Gives Radio Committee
Go Ahead On Station Plans
A Varsity Radio Station moved one step closer to reality at last night's Students'
Administrative Council meeting. A motion by Radio Commission Doug- Waite that an or
ganization should be set up for radio similar to The Varsity and that the Radio Committee
so formed should carry on investigations of an A.M. station for the campus wa& passed by
the council. Waite's motion asked that the committee should try if possible to have the
radio station set up by next fall. A report from the investigating committee estimated the
station cost to be appro.ximately $9000.
This motion was the first no-
tice for a constitutional amend-
ment and will have to be read at
the last SAC meeting of the year,
Waite said that the Radio Com-
mittee's biggest problem has been
that it has not had an outlet.
John Tinker. H Law, spoke to
the council on the behalf of the
group who have been investigating
the possibilities of an A.M. station.
(An A.M. station could be heard on
ordinary receiving sets. The com-
mittee has been broadcasting at
CJRT. Ryerson Institute, which is
an F.M, station and can. not be
heard on ordinary sets.)
Tinker said that the committee
had to have an audience before
students would feel like working.
In answer to a criticism by Graeme
Ferguson, IV Vic, that the station
might have trouble getting a staff
in a few years when the original
enWiusiasts have left. Tinker said
that the committee does not con-
sider itself to be "absurd and naive.'
Tinker said that the conmiittee
had as members, two men who had
Worked on the Queen's University
rodio station and that he himself
woi-ked on a radio station during
the summer. Because of this ex-
perience, Tinker felt that the com^
mittee was aware of the problems
lacing a Varsity radio station.
The motion for a radio station
at the University was opposed by
Charles Hanley. Ill UC. Hanley
said that he doubted if the radio
committee could find sufficient
staff without causing many col-
lege and faculty activities to suffer.
He was supported by Graeme Fer-
guson. Ferguson said that he op-
posed the motion, not because it
would interfere with studies, but
because he felt it might be an un-
wise move on the part of the coun-
cil. He said that university activi-
ties run in cycles. Several years
ago, Ferguson said, the Interna-
tional Relations Club had a mem-
bership of 150. Now he pointed out
it has a small membership while
the students are going to the United
Nations Club,
Tinker said that by the very na-
ture of the organization it would
not die out. He said that it would
be an organization similar to The
Varsity. Paul Porrestell, TV St.
Mike's, supported the motion as
he. felt- that tlie Radio Station wiU
bring out the dead heads who are
"not doing a blamed thing" around
the University.
Managing Editor Elinor Strang-
ways of The Varsity, said if any
activities are cut down it should
not be a creative activity like tlie
Radio Station. She said that while
Hanley was right in stressing that
a student comes to University to
study, she felt that one of the best
things a student can develop -is the
ability to create.
Students Picket Benchers
For Varsity Recognition
The complaints of the Univer-
sity Law Scliool students against
Osgoode Hall blossomed out into
action yesterday when students
from the Law School staged a
mass demonstration against the
Benchers at Osgoode HaU.
The picketers carried placards
reading "Justice". "EquaHty". ,
"We Want Recognition", "Recog- ,
nize U of T Law School", and a big
banner proclaiming "Varsity Law
School". They also distributed
pamphlets explaining their argu-
ments.
Students from the Law School
are recognized by every common
law jurisdiction in the world ex-
cept Ontario, said one of the dem-
onstrators. He added that they
were required to do their articl-
ing In Toronto while studying part
time at Osgoode thus giving To-
ronto lawyers the equivalent ot
slave labour. Ai-ticling is legal
apprenticesiiip during which lime
the students learn the practice of
their trade in a lawyer's office.
The parade stalled from the Law
School as the students walked out
of their lectures about fifteen
.-v-» minutes before the end of the per-
^ Uod. Then they marched across
the campus in front of Simcoe HaU i Public funds, the Public has
and continued -on their way to Os-
goode Hall. The demonstration
finished with a parade down Yonge
street in the noon hour traffic at-
tracting curious stares and ques-
tions from people out on their
lunches.
Station CKEY made a tape re-
cording of the proceedings wliich
will be broadcasted early next
week. Downtown Toronto papers
had photographers on hand. Po-
licemen encountered on the route
paid no attention to the parade.
The students kept in single file
while walking along and didn't Miction in the world . . . except On-
stop any traffic
The Law Society offices were
called on the telephone. The girl
who answered said that the dem-
onstration had been noticed but
she refused to comment on the re-
action.
Here is the phamphlet that was
handed out:

?L^H ^^^r^' ^^^P^^^i. and Jim Anders^ "l
third year Medsmen, a.s an Editorial Board to take the nost
of Editor-,n-Ch,ef of The Varsity for 1952-53. Shepherd was
appointed "Spokesman" of the Board to the Students' CoTin
cil and to the Publications Commission of the SAc"1nd wm
Sign contracts.
Other candidates for the post of Editor-in-Chief were
Ian Montagnes and Harold Nelson, resi>ectivelv News Editor
and Assistant News Editor of The Varsity this year.
Doug Slierk. IV SPS. outlined Paper would not be run "bv a sll«rht
the proceedmgs at the PubUcations ly biased and ingfown staff as
sometimes happened in the past "
Sherk asked the SAC memben
not to vote "for political reasons'*
but to be completely honest about
their opinions. He asked them to
keep in mind what was best for the
University of Toronto— "us and the
students we represent"— rather than
"journalistic ratings".
Barbara Browne. Editor-in-Chief
of The Varsity, recommended Mon-
tagnes for the position "as one who
has the necessary capabilities tlie
confidence of a staff he has worked
with, and a full sense of responsi-
bility for the job.- Miss Browne
said that she was against the prin-
ciple of a Board of Editors, as there
would not be one person responsi-
ble to the SAC. the pubhc, tiio
masthead, and the staff.
"I doD't think The Varsity Is
really an Artsmen's Gazette" Miss
Browne said. "The paper is for the
whole campus, and staffers tend to
lose their college affiliations, I
don't feel that more people would
ne:essarily be attracted to work on
The Varsity just because there were
three professional students as Edi-
tors-in -Chief."'
Miss Browne added that. In spite
of the exorbitant amount of work
required of the Eklitor of The Var-
sity, she did not feel that students
in professional faculties were nec-
essarily barred from the position
She pointed out that this year *
Makeup Editor is in Occupational
Therapy, and that other Varsity
staffers are in professional facul-
ties.
EUnor Strangways. Managing Edi-
tor of The Varsity, said tliat tha
paper is a student service with re-
sponsibilities to the student body.
"Someone interested in serving the
students through the pajjer will
work on it consistently as far aa his
as his timetable will allow." Sh«
said that both Montagnes and Nel-
son had shown by their work on the
paper "whether they were willing to
work their way up, or just wanted
to come in on top."
Bud Trivett, II Law. said that the
men in professional faculties havo
not had the additional incentive to
work on The Varsity because they
felt that while they might gain the
capabilities for the job, the load of
studies in their later years dtscrim-
inated against their possibilities of
holding an important masthead po-
sition. Trivett said he felt that the
appointment of the Board would
open a new field for men in profes-
sional faculties, who would see that
they could work for the more time-
I consuming positions on the paper.
Caroline Gratton, IV St. Mikes,
said that she felt that the members
of the proposed Board did not have
the experience and capabilities of
Montagnes. She added that she felt
that both Montagnes and Nelson
had more coherent programs for
The Varsity next year than th«
Board.
Chuck Hanley. in U,C., said "Wt
would welcome the professional fac-
ulties with open arms, but when wa
have a man who has all the neces-
sary qualities and a coherent uro-
gram for which he would be re-
sponsible to the SAC. it would b*
dangerous to reverse our policy t«
The Varsity."
(Continued on Page 2)
Commission meeting yesterday,
which he chaired. The Commission
recommended the appointment of
the Board of Eklitors to the SAC.
The Commission, of six members,
spilt on the vote, and \ Sherk,
chairman, exercised his prerogative
In casting the decisive vote. The
recommendation of the CommiS'
sion, with the amendment nam^
ing Shepherd as "Spokesman", was
passed by an SAC vote of 15 to 3,
The Varsity staff Tote. which is
an intra--staff vote to give the Edi-
tor some indication or staff feeling,
favored Ian Montagnes, The staff
voted 31 to 5 against the principle
of an Editorial Board.
Sherk explained tliat the Board
of three proposed to have one of
the group in complete charge of 33
consecutive Lssues, with possible
exceptions due to timetable exigen-
cies. Sherk said that the final deci-
sion would be between Montagnes
and the Board.
Montagues has the necessary
technical experience, Sherk said,
and had been a very capable News
Editor this year. He addded that if
only the production of the paper
were concerned, Montagnes- would
be first choice. >. *■
"Know-how" Is an important fac-
tor, Sherk said, but not an end in
itself. He added that the Editor
should pick his staff, and not nec-
essarily be "tailored to suit it."
The head of an organization does
not need to know all the technical
details of production, Sherk said,
but should be willing to learn. "He
need not come from the bottom up,
but should be able to get along with
people, recognize abiUty, be able to
inspire confidence, have a sense of
humor, and have a sense of respon-
sibility to the students as well as to
The Varsity." Sherk said that he
telt that the Board of three pos-
sessed more of these quahties than
Montagnes.
Sherk said that he felt that the
Board would have no trouble with
The Varsity staff, and that their
appointment would provide that the
Right to know the facts and make
its opinioa felt. These Are The
Facts:
1. — We are compelled to study
for eight years before admission to
the Ontario Bar. Osgoode Hall stu-
dents spend seveo years.
2. — We have the strongest staff
for teaching and reseai'ch ever as-
sembled in any Canadian law
school.
3. — No other law school has high-
er entrance requirements.
4. — Our graduates are recogoiz-
ed by every common law juris-
tario. This is not true of Osgoode
I HaU graduates.
5. — Only in Ontario Is legal edu-
I cation monopolized by a private
instiiutiOQ and recognition denied
to graduates of a university, a pub-
lic institution.
6. — Our objective is to eliminate
the extra year of academic work
at Osgoode Hall.
You Can See we DESERVE equal
recognition.
OBVIOUSLY we are being un-
justly penalized at YOUR and
OUR expense.

radio station, the Students' Ad-
ministialive Council:
—tabled the question of Soviet
Mudent visits to Canada until next
fall. The SAC had been requested
by NPCUS to answer a referendum
before the annual NFCUS confer-
ence next October.
—recommended that next year's
blood donoi- campaign be held In
the early fall, "when students are
lealthier." The Council also- de-
tided not to reopen this year's
blood donor campaign, in spite of
» request from the Red Cross.
That organization had requested
continuance of the cam;)aign.
Which had not reached 10 percent
registration.
—Gave Debates Commissioner
Chuck Hanlcy the go-ahead to "flip
a coin" with McMaster to decide
which university would compete

—heard the Musicians' Protec-

out of respect ot the death of the
King. The letter was in answer
to a request by the School ot Nurs-
ing that they be freed ot their ob-
ligation for a dance to be held in
Club Kingsway. The Association
said that the orchestra concerned
would hold the Club to its contract,
and suggested that any adjust-
ments be made with the Club.
—heard Finance Commissioner
Bud Trivett say Hart House re-
quests (or payment for services
was the first move to have the
Council rent offices, even though
It was a student organization.
"This is just taking money out ot
the students' left pocket and put-
ting it In their- right", said Trivett.
Council's Decision
(CoiUinueci from Page 1)
Syd Wax. SAC president, said
that the selection of an Editor-iii-
Chlcf lor The Varsity waa perhai>s
more imporLant liian that of the
president of the SAC. "Tlie Editor
can give to the campus tone, moti-
vation, and constant reminders of
briskness and awaveness. ' Wax said
that from his personal knowledge
of the Board candidates, he could
recommend their capacity, intelli-
gence, idealism, mnturity, and ex-
perience for the job.
He recommended that the experi-
ment be tried tor at least one year.
Its the "SAC could watch closely to
see if it worked, and he felt that
the Board would give The Varsity
a freedom of movement and im-
partiality "that have been some-
times lacking in the pftKt."

BUI Corbett, m Trin. suggested
that the SAC constitution did not
empower it to elect a Board of Edi-
tors-in-Chief. nor "a board of thiee
who would elect the Editor-in-Chief
by themselves." I>r. Jack McBimie,
Chairman of the SAC, said that the
Council should not let itself be too
hemmed in by the constitution.
"The constituUon is intended for
guidance, but things can be over-
looked." Trivett commented that
governments are more phone to
follow precedent than constitutions."
Asked to comment on the ap-
pointment. Godfrey said "We con-
sider thl.<5 a great opportunity, and
one which we hope we can fulfill
in the traditional Varsily spirit."
Shepherd said, "In view or the fact
that -such outlets for student ex-
pression as debates, mock parlia-
ments and discussions are now less
active than formerly, throws added
weight on The Varsity. Anderson
was unavailable for comment.

The Dean said. "I am ex-

The case for recognition of our

strong one on its own merits.
It does not require or call for
abu.se or vilification. The gov-

concerned for conduct unbecom-

weekly newspaper underwent sev-
eral unexpected staff changes
when a group of evening students
of that college seized control of
the paper published last weelt.
The coup d'etat was reported
in the main story of the same
issue that was published by the
evening division students. This has
led several informed sources to
conclude that the issue was a col-
laboration. The story announced
that "'the press was only regained
in time to add this news flash."
Both the Editor-in-Chief and the
Sports Editor were placed in con-
finement in order to protect the
plotters from inierrerence.
Most details of the evening stu
dents' coup d'etat are unknown,
but it has been learned that six
masked figures entered the edi-
tor's office clianting. "To whom

calmly until he realized the partial
identity ot the masked men. when
.he recalled that "To whom, to

SAC Finance Commission
Favour Small AVR Loss
in.stead ot an expected profit ot
$350. the All-Varsity Revue caused
the Student's Administrative Coun-
cil a loss of $496.17. The figures for
the Revue were issued for the SAC
yesterday by SAC Secretary-Treas-
urer, E. A. MacDonald.
The expenses for the show
amounted to $3,640.77 instead of
J4.07S which was budgeted for by
the SAC. This reduction In cost
Was iichieved by cutting costs of
the ca,st party, theatre costs and
reducing publicity and staging ex-
penses.
Ticket sale returns were twelve
hundred dollars under what was
expected the report showed. The
show went on for only five shows
instead of the planned seven when
date.t! of the performance had to
be changed due to King George's
death.
MacDonald's report was also pre-
sented to the Finance Oommission,
Tuesday afternoon. The Finance
Cooimission ai^roved the re&ults
of the operations ol the AVR and
commented the Revue on havuig
made such a good report in view
of the difficulties.
The AVR Committee went on to
make plans for next year after the
financial report had been made.
Director Jim Guthroe had severai
suggestions to make. He wanted
the SAC rather than the director
to appoint a publicity manager and
a business manager for the show
in future.
The committee discussed his sug-
gestion but felt that the positions
should be advertised and nomina-
tions for the positions should be
made bv the Ail-Varsity Revue

at Queen's, because the organiza-
tion ha.s no grass roots," Alnslee
said. "NFCUS is spending too much
money as an organized pressure
group, keeping a national secre-
tariat and propaganda maclune In
Ottawa. The real value of such an
organization lies in exchanging
ideas," he said.
According to the Queen's Journal,
the opinion of the AMS executive
at the meeting wa.s that NFCUS
should also make more oC an ef-
fort to reflect the wishes of the
students it represents.
Queen;, dropped out of NPCUS
last fall l>ecau.=e of budget difficul-
ties, and lack of intercut.
MIm Swift had stopped off In
Kingston on her way back from
the NPCUS executive meeting in
Ottawa in the middle of February.
She t old the Queen's executive
that NPCUS was raising money for
a program aimed at benefiting all
students, and. she added "It Is
only fair that aU students should
contribute a minimum sum."
"As a matter of fact." she said.
"the present 20 cents per student
fee can be reduced it all Canadiaa
universities take part," she said.
However. Koscmary Bartlctt.
president of the Alma Mater So-
ciety ,told Miss Swift that the pe-
culiar character of ^:tudent govern-
ment at Queen s makes it essential
for such organization^ as NFCUS
and ISS to operate themselves
without the aid of a compulsory
lev>'. "All niajw itueie.st^ have to
come from the -tLictent body," she
said. "In the c^ise of NPCUS a
group of interested students could
organize and rai.^e any money ne-
cessary for the NFCUS program."
After hcLvring the AMS opinions
of NFCUS, Miss Swift said that
she would ask the national execu-
ti?e at Its next meeting to waive
the compulsory' levy for Queen's
in favour of a voluntary organi-
zation. She said that she would also
discuss Queen's proposal that
NPCUS should concentrate more
oil co-operating with university au-
thorities for formal action and lesa
on special student pressure tactics.

THE VARSITY
Thursdoy, .oruory 28, 195J
Student
Tlie fifth annual Student Com-
posers' Concert sponsored by the
Victoria College Liberal Art^ Club
took place last Sunday in Wymll-
Wood. The program was in some
■ways similar to the one played at
the Hart House students' concert
eome weeks ago. but since more
time and performers were available
here, some of the music was in a
larger scale, and appropriately
mure serious.
Two lighter groups of works were
pliived — five Preludes for piano by
Ted McGarrigle (played by Margot
Rowland), and a suite for Piano by
Don McPadden i played by Jim
Maden). The three movements of
the suite were, to all Intents, quite
uncoiinecteti. and might just as
well have been labelled "Preludes",
or by some other non-committal
name.
The two composers' works are
quiw different in method, but suni-
lar in spirit and form. McGarrigle
is interested in harmony, but sticks
to conventional rhythms. McPad-
den's rhythms are the striking
thing about his music. Both com-
posers seemed to want to compose
epigrammatic pieces a la Schumann,
■wilh varied success.
Four songrs to words of Walter De
La Marc, by Paul Mclntyre isung
by Mary Alice Rogers) showed this
composer in a new light. Frankly.
I wonder whether he really likes
composing songs. These at any rate
placed most of the interest and em-
phasis on the piano part, while the
voice often merely declaimed the
words, somewhat after the manner
ol Hugo WoU. The one I liked best
was "The Song of Soldiers", which
paints a weird picture of a ghostly
army. '
Both the other pieces were cham-
l)er works on a larger scale, a trio
by Charles Wilson (played by Gor-
don MacPherson, Dolores Mockree
and Olive Plncock) and a string
quartet by Paul Mclntyre (played
by i\liiry Foys, Dolores Mockree,
Mjicey Cadesky and Ron iJiurie).
Both works achieve much of their
Interest through their counterpoint,
and consequently do not yield as
much to the listener on a first hear-
ing than more homophonic things.
Diminutions, inversions and such
devices are hard enough to pick
out in Bach, and doubly so where
the idiom is less familiar.
Nevertheless, I was struck toy the
<to me) profound emotional con^
tent of the quartet, and again, by a
»ubtle symmetry. The work is play
ed without breaks, but falls natural-
ly into four sections. The first be-
gins with a disjointed theme on the
mut«d viola, which is gradually
built MP in contrapuntal fashion to
a great climax, arKl dies away again.
A rapid section follows, and then
a return to a slower t^mpo, with
mutes (ray memory was not good
enough to teJl whether this had any
connection with the first section).
The final section is a sort of erpi-
logue in moderate tempo, less com-
plex than the other sections, end-
ing the work in a tranquil mood.
Wilson's trio pays less attention
to euphony than the quartet. The
composer plax^es the three instru-
ments on a very equal footing, and
throv-s phrases back and forth be-
tween them in imitation. The sec-
ond movement seems to consist of
two movements telescoped into each
other, a slow one which begins with
sort of ground-bass, but soon
abandons it, and a rapid fugue-like
movement. The slow section returns
several times and turns into more
and more rhapsodic episodes in the
fugal one.
The music on this program, as on
many others of student composi-
tions was often of an experimental
sort. However, it would be unfair to
say that It is insincere— it is well
worth listening carefully to It, for
much of it is written carefully »nd

EARLY THEATRE
Purple Pants & Tiger Skins
By PEARL PARNES
■■H»rt House Theatre was one ually suggested to MeniU Denison ported her son. He had tried to en-
li"„. r."n. ,hn. he write the jrreat Canadian ter journalism at the Unlyersitj
of the most inspiring things Can-
ada ever produced", boomed Mer-
rill Denison, and his clay mous-
tache bristled up to his keen, ac-
tive eyes. Mr. Denison is an
alumni ol the School ol Architec-
ture ot the University ol Toron-
to a member of the old Hart
House Theatre ol over thirty years
ago He is now a well-imown
writer, historian and wit. visiting
Toronto from New York for two
weekis on an apartment-exchange
with some friends.
Mr. Denison was Art Director
at Hart House Theatre under the
famous Roy Mitchell, "an experi-
mental theatrical genius." The
venture had grown out of the old
Arts and Letters Club. One day
Vincent Massey and Mr. Mitchell
had been lunching together, look-
ing over the plans for the project-
ed Hart House. Out ol the session
grew a theatre which subsequent-
ly drew the enthusiasm and tal-
ents of the Group of Seven, the
.acting talents of Vincent and Ray-
mond Massey. and various mus-
ical geniuses. Mr. Denison, who
had joined The Varsity staff to
write but had been "subverted"
and became cartoonist, handled
the sets, the lights, and the acting
chores when "no other actors
were available."
The old Theatre used to have a
bill of Canadian plays each year.
They became Increasingly hard to
get. and one day Mr. Mitchell cas-

of the U. of T. Symphony Orches-
tra and Chorus; Director of the

The position of Torontonensis
Editor is still open although the
deadline was 12 noon last Monday.
No applications for that office
have been received.
"We would like to encourage as
many people as possible to apply
for these positions," said SAC As-
Mlss A. E. M.
Parkes. "Applications should In-
clude qualifications rnd past ex-
perience if any," she added.

that he write the great Canadian
play. The result was "Brot-hers-
in-Arms". which was written on
a Saturday morning and has since
had many hundred performances.
Including a recent C.B.C. produc-
tion.
It had to meet certain require-
ments; it had to be about Cana-
dians, it had to be funny, and it
had to fit a maximum and mini-
mum of these other available ac-
tors and eight flats. The only
"uncontaminated" Canadians Den-
ison could find were two back-
woodsmen (he was one of the
first writers to think of putting
Canadians in a Canadian play);
at the first production a man in
the first row of the audience was
carried out in convulsions.
The group worked under all
sorts of difficulties, and things
constantly happened. Mr. Deni-
son could never learn lines, and
he would arrange his scenery so
that he could paste his part at
convenient places on the stage.
In one outdoor production of a
Greek play, a storm was called
for, and the gods co-openated in a
magnificent manner. "We reach-
ed the apex of dramatic natural-
ism and lost our audience," chuck-
les the humorist, who claims to
have invented the phrase "Cana-
dian inferiority complex." In var-
ious productions of Cymbeline. the
British captains varied every
night and never seemed to get on
the stage quite right. One reach-
ed heights of anachronism when
he appeared in a tiger-skin robe,
horn-rimmed glasses, oxfords, and
a pipe.
The Theatre experimented with
all sorts of plays, and produced
the then-llttle-known plays by the
Irish dramatists and the Indian
jour;
of Toronto, but "the U of T
1911 looked on journalism as some-
thing vaguely obscene." He ert.
tered Pass Arts, but "a combina-
tion of Latin and a faculty for
pool was my undoing." Alter
some time as City Editor of a
Niagara F>alls paper, he looked
through the university calendar. ,
■'Architecture was the first on titm
list, and I could draw, so I be-
came an architect."
However, he was "hall-back-
woodsman" and thought Archi-
tecture too conducive to claus-
trophobia, and after three years
of practice, came to Hart House
Theatre. After a year as Art Di-
rector, during which time he lived
in Hart House, the CNR hired him
to do a series of Canadian hi.stor-
ical plays, called the "Romance
of - Canada Series." Then N^w
York plucked him down to do a
similar group of 40 "Great Mo-
ments in American History." He
is now an "Industrial Historian",
and the author of "Harvest Tri-
umphant", the history of the Mar-
sey-Harris Company. And he
credits Hart House Theatre for
ms marriage, his writing career
and "one of the most exciting and
inspiring things of my life."

D AoTciJ'^ ^ apparent last Friday on opening night that Lister Sinclair's play SOC-
RATES was far from perfect. It was generally conceded that the acting aad the directing
enhanced it greatly, but the built of criticism of the play itself seemed to stem from a
desire to help Mr. Sinclair should he rewrite the play, or help him in the writing of his next
play. All the criticism aimed at something constructive, and in this vein I too raise my
piping voice. SOCRATES is a rhetorical play with a serious message. The fact that it is so
makes the play very undramatic, but the message it presents makes the play intensely mov-
ing. Mr. Sinclair has not, I think, fully gr.isped this fact and until he does appreciate it,
he will never be a dramatist. He writes verse — not dramatic poeti-y in the sense that
Shakespeare and Christopheo: Fry write poetry.
HART HOUSE CONCERTS
30 Years
"liiiirty yeans old! Thirty years
of good music in the Great Hall of
Hart House will be brought to
close this Sunday with the Glee
Club concert there. Ever since
the first concert on Nov. 12, 1922
there have been eight concerts a
year on Sunday evenings in the
Great Ball.
In their loii£ iiistory, the con-
certs have changed remarkably
little. Even some of the artists
that appeared in the early days
are still appearing regularly, and
playing much the same sort ot
music.
During the iirst year of Sunday
Evening Concerts, every program
closed with the singing of the
Bach chorale "Turn; O My Soul"
in which the audience joined. This
practice was discontinued in the
second year, but more recently,
a similar custom has arisen every
Christmas, when the audience joins
the St. Mary Magdalene Singers
in Edngine '"nw First Noel."
The shape of the printed pro-
grams has been the same ever
since the concerts started— a little
folded piece of s'tlff paper that
just fits nicely into a coat pocket.
Until the lOOth concert, the out-
side was decorated with a sort of

Dramatic poetry is not primarUy a vehicle for ideas; it is not naira-
tive or expositorj' but rather by its imagery and symbolism it implies
dllferent levels of meaning and above all reflects feeling. Tlie most
imipartant thing about Hamlefs philosophic statement ' thsre is nobh-
mg eibheo- good or bad, but thinking makes it .so" is not what he savs but
how he feels. It impUes all the suffering in Hamlet's hsart ' Only
occasionally does aoty character in SOCRATES speak in that vein. I caji
think only of Onto's .speech to Love which reflects' the peii5Dnality of
the speaker and the situation of the party, but even it was a self-
oonscious recitation and therefore slightly removed from the situation.
Apparently Sinclair is only interested in preaching ideas — tliat a
clever political critic is worth listening to — that toeius truly juit and
good means dying for ideals when necessarj- because such m■^r:ll ^tm-
dards aire not relative but absolute — and that belief is in a universal
and formal God tJiat can be believed in by all men. Sinclair is not
interested, in fact, in the reaction of people — reai people — to t^hese
ideas, otherwise he would have had to use poetry, but he preJea-red to
expound ideas rhetorically throug-h Socrates. The historical and human
situation in which the expression took place are not made clear. P. H.
Anderson says that Plato was a dramatist because Socrates spoke in the
"Dia1ogn.ies" within a well defined oujruml siUiatlon. Sinclair had a
ohance to make Plato more theatrical but failed to show, as he intended,
tile "swartihy Mediterraaiean body" and tlie deep-seated and sincere feel-
ingB of the society.
The accusers were maiie to look ridiculous, and the ma^trates weire
never oharacteirized proporly. One stood for Religion (Triptolemus), one
for PoUtics (Oynisi, and one for Conventional MoraUty (PhilUpj. But
tlhere was no personaQity. Shaw often used this dramatic techni<tiie but
there were recognizable haunan features tJiat gave the charact3r5 plau&i-
biiLlity and real humour. The Bishop of Cauohon and Warwick in SAINT
JOAN were two believable, abstract cJiaracters. Sinclair misht have
sliown that Trlptolemus was a little queer, or tdiat Cyrus made money
dishonestly.
More important he sbooM have presented their arguments at the
triail fairly. Socrates does not present a IcgicaUy practicad case but rather
a stpiritual one just like Kiaw's St. Jean, and the magistrates should
have presented a practical argument comparable to Cauchon's — an
argument that doesn't really oppose Socrates at all since they are at two
different levels. A traget^ results because the politicians have might oa
their side, but t*ie conflict Is left unresolved — both sides being rigiht
to tlieir own way.
The friends and disciples of Socrates were rougihly sketched. With
tftiese men as with the farmers and soldiers we might have sec^n why
Socrates was dangerous. As it was. Socrates was mei"ely a friend to all of
them. Loved by his friends, respected and liked by simple people — we
never saw him as a teacher. Surely he could have offended some citi.ons
by his Questions or persuaded some one to his views befoi-e he wa«
ainrested.
The first scene of the play was lacking In any real quality. Sinclair
could rewnte it to fiill hi missing elements. Xantippe, Socrates' wife. Is
expendable. He charms ctihers, why not his wife? In this scen^? too tlie
smut was smutty but not dramatic. It like poeti-y is a matter of implica-
tion and humaji response. Sinclair wtlj not let anyone say anything
except himself — or at least that is his tendency often. The fanner's
wife should first have been seen as something of a prude before we heard
her earthy remarks in order to make it funni', or better still she might
have pretended at first to be fast and loose and then pioved othei-wise.
Being one of the few stage plays of an haibiUial radio-writer,
SOCRATES sihows that the author is olever and witty but he is too
concerned foi- ideas and not yet intent enough on character to be a
good dramatist.
David Peddle.
OUR CRITICS
Unsung Heroes
Pew will see in what way the critic is an unsung hero of the theatre;
it is certainly impossible to discover any contribution made by those
mean and miserable scribblers. But gi-anting that the ciltic is flo hero
sung or un-siing — he is and must be heroic In the noble Byronic sense
—alone, cut off fiom human society, cynically looking for an Ideal in tihe
theatre that he knows does not nor cannot exist.
The critic must be on his toes at all times constantly aware that he
is not as other mortals who can go ab^/ut the world happy and iin«,x>n-
cemed (or tlie appearance of things, wliile he must maintain a hard
objective view of life Ui order to keep in condition. An event at which
others laugh and to which they respond must only make the critic draw
back and try to discover why the people Jaugh or Vii\y they respond.
It is because of this that critics become somewhat inhuman and the
objeot of scam and derlson.
In the theatre world itself critics are regarded as merely a source of
pubUcity because actors, directors, and managers know that he cannot
know what It is all about when he nevei- gets farther "into" the theatre
than a seat somewhere on the aisle. Tlierefoie the only people he can
please are tlick.''* who enjoy maHciousness for its own sake — paople who
do not like plays — who never go to plays but enjoy seeing them puiUed
a^iart.
It is for this reason that the best advice that could be given to a
prospective critic who wants to preserve his "moral integrity" is ttua
advice of a past master of the craft — George Bern.ard Shaw. Say the
things that .seri«./usly matter, but ta<w them off as if you didn't care a
straw. It is the only way to preserve your sanity. Of course no one wlB
understand what you say but yourself, but no one will understand and
it saves you from being disaereeable.

The results of the intercollegiate
meet were checked after the battle I
was over; OAC had thirty points !
in.stcad of twenty-nine. This put
them only one point behind the
Blue.s, a surprising position for the
Guclph matmen.
The tournament analysis for the
meet was also released today. OAC
made their big scoring spree Sat-
urday afternoon when they picked
up ten points from the consolation
bouts. Varsity and Western were
even during the evening but West-
em were up three in the afternoon.

lor the Jennings Cup, awarded the
Intramural hockey champions.
It is a crucial contest for the
Trinity squad. They were sound-
ly beaten in the first game Mon-
day when Vic swamped them 11-
0. and must gain at least a saw-
off to prolong their chances and
the series. The cup goes to the
team that is first to rack up four
I points so that a tie can keep the
Buttery in the running.
I Trinity will be hoping for the re-
turn to form of Pete Stewart who
fizaled Monday after going on a
five-goal spree when they elimin-
ated Jr. Vic. The Crumpeters
were definitely a long way off top
form In Monday's shellacking and
if their scorers can find the mark,
they will at least put up an argu-

The stroQf Vir team features

In Freedom's Name ^^55^?^^?=^
A Daily Califomian (University of California) editorial tives one view
•f criticism of American democracy.
"It's a free country isn't it ?"
In a sentence that seems to be the favorite national
summation of the Constitution, our legal tradition, our great
men's great words. It is declared and shouted and mumbled
all over the country, on street corners and in rural lanes —
"Jt's a free country, isn't it ?"
If . ever there were a bond between people and a word,
it is the one between Americans and "freedom." If we, as
Americans, build a hospital or cheer a ball game, propose
or op))ose a law, seek ju.stification for a security measure or
foreign alliance, it is always done in the name of freedom. ,
We as Americans, are sometimes laughed at, with rea-
son, for kidding our.selves, and chided, with reason, for
hypocrisy ; but the basis for all this — the h(*i that freedom
ha,s on American minds — cannot be laughed away. It has
been the moving force of our democracy.
But today that force is being dissipated. It seems to
have been immobilized by our new position in the world.
Amei'ieans admire freedom in a looking glass, call this coun-
try's image freedom, while the real thing slips away, ignored.
It seems that nowadays We Americans have let our-
selves believe that we are so wedded to freedom that it can-
not be lost, no matter what strains are put on it. Individuals
anoint themselves keepers of freedom, judges of who should
and who should not enjoy it — and we listen to them.
Oaths of loyalty are prescribed, college forums are cen-
sored, pointing fingers bring the casual ruin of livelihood
and reputations — and we let it paas.
Rules are set down for what we can say. and what we
can hear and whom we can hear — all in freedom's name —
and. we accept them. As a result there is a stifling of our
critical powers, our genius for progress.
Now it seems that we are willing to accept the idea that
security must come first and liberty second in the struggle
against communism. But security measures need not prey
on freedom. Americans surely have not grown so dull in 170
years that they cannot tell a good idea from a bad one.
Common talk has it that individuals are ineffective in
this huge country caught in the drift of world conflict —
and yet — unless we exercise our rights, each of us, constant-
ly, immediately, we may find that we are grasping a nettle
and calling it freedom. In fact, freedom may die by our own
hands and not by Communist aggression.
What freedom needs most today is exercise — not ad-
miration, not tributes, not exposition, not protectors and
administrators, but a vigorous use of independent thought
and speech by 150 million Americans. We as American
students must encourage j>eople to speak their minds, to help
overcome fhe fear instilled by repressive trends and to point
up the true meaning of events which affect our freedom.
Make an issue about what freedom really means; make
freedom the topic of conversation in your living group and
in your classes or over your evening cup of coffee.
Speak up I Freedom needs exercise!

Arising from Czarist autocracy of the 19th
oentui-y. the Russian people in 1905 took fiagile
steps toward democracy, but were soon to tuan in
ajiother direction, and with firm strides, trea4 the
path of authoritarianism.
In Lenin was personified the iron discipline of
the Oommunist Party which cried - in its Mani-
festo "(We) by the forcible overthrow of all exist-
ing social conditions caai become masters of the
productive forces of society. Let the ruling classes
tremble at a Commiunist revolution. Tlie prole-
tariaais have nothing to lose but fclieii- cJiains. They
have a wcwld to win."
But Communism under the auspices of the
Supfeme Econoiindc Council of Russia from 1917
to 1921 resuJted in miserable oha<is. OpiJosition to
Communism thmugh revolution in Russia grew
sbrongex, imtil the New Economic Policy was adc^}t-
ed. NEP i-estoi-ed private enterprise subject to
state contiol wliich brought industry and agricul-
ture bade to pa-e-WorW War I staaidaj^.
Leran's death, in 1934, toought the conflicts
about NEP and the total Communist theory to tlie
surface within the Paity. Trotsfcy favoured world-
wide Communist revolution, and the suprenmcy of
the proletariat as against that ol the peasantry
Just as Marx had outlined. StaJin favoured a Com-
munist, experiment confioied to Russia with peasajit
co-operation rather than subordination, and witih
use made of foreign capital and ti-ade.
Stalin ovei-powei-ed Trotsky, and began his
series of five-year plans within the Russian bor-
ders. The world pretty well forgot about Com-
munists for the time being.
Bait Moscow did not forget the world. lu
France, in China, in Peru, in the United States,
and all over the world Comintern representatives,
trained in Moscow were building Communist
Party blocs, eadi named after its own country
(e^., Chinese Communist Party) but each affiliat-
ed with the Comint-ei n in Russia, and directed by
Stalin personally. They were preparing the way
for the time when world dojnjfliation would be
feasiible.
The PopiUaq- Front was to be emiployed. "We
mrust capture the petite bourgeoisie as the Nazis
have done. We must work on politicians who have
been passed over, on doctors mired in mediocrity,
lawyers sunk in poverty. A very useful tool is the
lord wiho has lost his iholdings ... if we offer him
ever so little he will gladay sei-ve us. Whether we
use the ambition of the ambitious or tlie dLsin-
terestedness of the it>mantic, or the hope of the
ia>erals left over from the nineteenth century,
you would be sur,prised froan how many sectors we
cam get people to join with us and carry out our
plans. And all the time remember that these pix>-
gressive radical boui'geouis aJid their leftist cliques
pass, while the party remains. In life there are no
etJiical victories. Morals are just so much dessert.
How deluded you are if you have the rcanantic
idea of revolution and its politics. You think tlw
workers and peasants and middle class are full
of noble intentions. What a mistakel The im-
mense mass of our friends and enemies is. made
up on opportunists." These weie to become "The
servants of expediency," said Communist leader
and teacher Mao Tse-tung in an instruction class
at Moscow. "The greatest talent in this work,
comrade is never to be associated with failure.
Never to defend blie weak, even when he is rig^it.
The more help they (the disenchanted) get from
us in their pillage the inoi'e positions they will let
us take and occupy . . . any person who receives
our support and does not fulfill his part of the
ergain must become the target for a frontal at-
iack qi pitiless ferocity. He must be destroyed.
Either we must lay aside a few principles or we
leave the way open to fascism."
What a noble cause.
We are acutely awai'e of the Kremlin -directed
threat to the world todaiv. We know a.bout the tools
Df Commuinism; the general strikes, the coup d'6tat,
the underground with its cells, the purges. We
may even notice that where Nazism preached the
big lie long and loud until it was histilled in the
master race, Communism works upon the truth,
pulling it and pushing it until it fits the party line
. . . and hence is suitable for the masses.
As an external thi"eat to our world, we recog-
nize the enemy, but do we notice its Imfiltration?
We see signs of an underground movement
both in Canada and the United States every once
in a while aJid hear tnje confessions oi the uit^l-
lectuais to whom It appeals, if not of its exciting
lures and plays uix>n the ego. Whittaker Cham-
bers, an ex-Conuiiunist in the States, currently
describes Communism as ■"The vision of man's
mind disjjlaciiig Ood as the creative intelligerice of
the worW, It is the vision of man's liberated mind.
by sole force of its rational intelligence
man's destiny and reorganizing man's life
world." Tills may hold appeal to the intei
who is not quite brigiht enough to- i-
implies "Man" in the singular and not tlie
who cannot envision the Kremlin as a dict^t!X^
and not as the leadei- of a revolution which''
successful will have its orgajiizing forces "
'away".
Others prefer to see the crisis, not
Jlict between communsim and I'eligion ^

As Engineers, Vic Debate
The motion that "the University of Toronto should not abolish the colleges and
consolidate into faculties" was defeated by the Engineers in a debate between SkuJe and
Victoria College yesterday. The deciding vote was cast by the speaker of the house after
» tie was reached.
The first speaker for the affirmative, Eon Price, questioned the benefit the arts-
men would derive from associating with engineers. He stated the only effect would be that
fie silence of the halls of Vic would be shattered by the roar of the Skule cannon. The
difference between arts and professional men was that artsmen pursue knowledge for
knowledge's sake while the professional men acquire knowledge in pursuit of gold, he said.
He also denied that any students were prevented from entering any arts colleges on account

"One of the main causes of

Vic, while Skule had activities
like the chariot races that "were

George Brown
By PEARL PARNES
"People seem to be afraid that
they'll catch something if they use
the word 'Dominion'. It's like the
emall-pox — a naughty word not
ioT polite society." Professor
George Brown of the Histoi-y De-
partment thinks the row over
"Dominion of Canada" is silly.
As far as a Canadian governor-
general is concerned, however,
he's all in favor of it, and further,
of interchanges of the post among
members of the Commonwealth.
"It would be a good idea for a
Canadian to go to Australia. We
often thought Jan Smuts of South
Africa would have made a good
governor-general of Canada."
Prof. Brown is a graduate of the
University of Toronto. He taught
in a Saskatoon high school and in
R Doukhobor settlement, and then
went to Chicago for his Ph.D. Af-
ter lecturing for a year at the
University of Michigan, he came
to Toronto, and, belying his young
appearance, has been on the staff
here for 27 years.
He started as a lecturer when
Lester B. Pearson was on the
etaff, and went through all the
stages until he became a full-
fledged professor. After 20 years
AS editor of the Canadian Histor-
ical Review, he became editor-in-
chief of the University Press in
J946. His job is the consideration
of manuscripts for publication.
"The cost of printing is a great
block in the publication of sec-
ondary books, and 4 out of 5 have
to be subsidized by the profits of
our printing plant", he explained.
The press is the only one of its
kind in Canada, and is among the
top eight University Presses on
the North American continent. It
averages about 20 new books a
year and seven academic journals.
"We make an effort to produce
books of particularly fine quality,
and the Press is a big factor in
Canadian scholarship. About 60
manuscripts are submitted each
year, with dozens of ideas and
queries, in all sorts of fields. They
are considered from the point of
view of merit, their suitability for
publication, and the means for
financing them." The Press does
a great deal of publishing in con-
Junction with organizations such
as the Royal Society of Canada,
the Ontario Research Foundation,
and the Canadian Tax Foundation.
About 20 percent of the publica-
tions are commercial or "best-
selling" books, like MacGregor-
Dawson's "Government of Can-
ada". The others are subsidized
out of the scholarly fund.
The Press, Prof. Brown explain-
ed with regret, is not able to pub-
! lish creative literature as yet.

nadians are terribly introspective
about Canadian culture. "We've
made much progress — not only in
terms of not-able works of art, but
ways the public are not aware
of. such as organizations working
the cultural field."
Dr. Brown spends three quar-.
ters of his time in the History De-
partment, and the rest in a bright-
ly-lit office under two of his wife's
paintings. Whatever time is left
over is spent in writing his own
books, such as high-school text-
book, "Building the Canadian Na-
tion", and many articles. He was
ecently honoured by being asked
to edit and write the introduction
to the volume, "Canada", a joint
publication by the University
Presses of Toronto and Califor-
nia. Another text of his is the
widely-read "Canadian Democracy
in Action." The Press, Dr. Brown
explains, doesn't go into the sec-
ondary-school text-book field.
They are the bread and butter
of the commercial publisher."
Prof. Brown has some pet ideas
on the general topic of education.
There is ho single road towards
education. You can get a good
education in any .lin^. Under-
standably, of coure, I think his-
tory provides a real medium to
wisdom and perspective." As far
the lessons of liistory, the pro-
fessor uses the anology of amnes-
"The person suffering from
amnesia is in a bad way. if soci-
ety suffered from amnesia, it
would be in as bad a state. So
history must teach something."
In addition to all his other activ-
ities. Dr. Brown is on the re-
search committee of the Canadian
Institute of International Affairs,
and was president of the Canadian
Historical Association.
For his other interests, .he is
content to watch his wife paint.
I am no good visually or dex-
terously", he complains. . Except

Where Stands
The Naturalist?
The following is ao article published in a recent
issue ot The Western Gazette. It Is a criticism of
the current ^ries of articles in the Saturday
Evening; Post on Communism.
The first installment of Whit-
tiiker Chambers* own story appear-
ed recently In The Saturday Even-
ing Post. Ill a moving letter to his
children Chambers analyses the
present ideological conflict in the
light of his experiences as a Com-
munist and his subsquent break
with the party.
The sincerity of the man is writ-
ten large in every line. Commun-
ists, argues Chambers, are not
scheming, blackhearted scoundrels;
they are sincerely dedicated human
beings. At the heart of Communism
lies the conviction that it is neces-
sary to change the world. Its ad-
herents are that part of mankind
that has recovered the power to live
die for its faith. But. says Cham-
bers, theirs is a vision of Man with-
out God, the vision of a world
guided by the sole force of intelli-
gence. In this way he reduces the
world struggle to Godliness versus
Godlessness.
This thesis is a vei-y convincing
one and will doubtless find favor in
the Western world particularly in
theological circles. It is not novel
but gains a sense of conviction by
wiUingness to give the Communist
his due. Chambers is remarkably
free from rancor. He never stoops
to calling names.
He is also on firm grbund in his
over-simplification of the pi-oblem
because the mass revolutionary
movements of history are stimulated
by very fundamental faiths. The
elaborate philosophical foundations
may give the vision a firmer core
to satisfy the intellectual but the
energizing power lies at the heart
of the concept freed from its ra-
tionalizations and packaged in a
wrapping ot emotionality.
Unfortunately Chambers falls
prey to a process that plagues
much thinking on this subject —
that of identification. Thus if the
Communist believes A. B. C, and
D, anyone else believing A though
he may reject B, C, and D is lump-
ed with the Communist in order
to reduce everything to one basic
dichotomy. For Chambers there is
faith with and faith without God.
(Oddly enouh Chambers doesn't
feel In need of defining what fie
nieans by God.) Whether they like

it or not naturalists, positivisti
scientific humanists, agnostics
atheists and anyone else who for
one reason or another rejects the
popular Deity — all are tossed \tnn
the Red category as opposition to
the forces of piety.
But this is fantastic. He tacit-iy
admits that the , evil in Communism
Is its refusal to recognize certain
emotional values as having a place
in the world of the future. On
careful examination It becomes
plain that it is not the lack of God
in Communism that is dangerous
but what Chambers tJiinks is the
necessary result of that lack, But
because the Communist throws the
baby out with the bath one is
hardly entitled to assume that the
bath and the baby are inseparably
joined.
Chambers seems to forget that
history records some horrible" crimes
committed in the name of God. The
very human values of love, kind-
ness and good-will can be defended
on the basis of intelligence and ex-
perience and are not in need of
theological justification. Mr. Cham-
bers notwithstanding, the Russian
Marxist is not a good example of
the modem naturalist. By submerg-
ing those emotional values that
hinder his revolution he has de-
stroyed his capacity for enjoying
the fruits of that revolution. Or,
If you wish, he has destroyed his
soul.
On the other hand the great
motivating forces the faiths of man-
kind are seldom able to stand up
under critical analysis. Chambers Is
this much right, the sou! does have
a logic all it's own and unfortunate-
ly the demand of the soul Is lor
the extreme. The middle road is
the safer, saner ooe but it is not
the road of self-sacrifice.
The naturalist stands in the no*
man's-land of the present struggle,
unable to identify himself whole-
heartedly with either side, and
eqiially unable to be effective him-
self. Chambers lumps him willy-
nilly with the Communists under
the Illusion that there can l>e >u>
neutrality here because for Cham-
bers one side or the other must
be completely victorious. He lias
Ignored Hegel's lesson. Neither con-
cept will emerge unscathed, the
victor will bear the scar of the
vanquished. And this is the na-
turalist's consolation that either
way he stands to triumph in the
synthesis.

SCIENCE NOTES
The Worm
And Odontalgia
By BOB RAPP
Maximus tormentes annumerari
potest." Toothache may be counted
among the greatest tortures, was
the opinon of the Roman physician
Celsus. From this it may be seen
that Odontalgia has had an ex-
tensive but inglorious past.
Our ancestors, thougli unscieJl-
tific, were imaginative on the sub-
ject of dental pain. This afflic-
tion, together with the dangerous
condition of Love, was thought to
"1 am troubled
With a toothache, or with love,
I know not whither,
There is a worm in both."
Some of the more unscrupulous
practitioners of the time would dex-
terously extract reasonable fac-
similes thereof from the oral cavi-
ties of their patients and claim to
have produced a cure.
The tootJi is composed of a crown
covered with enamel and dentine,
and a root covered with cementum
and dentine. Inside the tooth is
the pulp chamber containing pulpal
tissue composed of blood vessels,
lymphatics, dentine forming cells,
connective tissue, and nerves. These
nerves enter the tooth at the apex
of the root, pass coronally and
break into smaller branches which
end at the dentine border.
The dentine contains tubules
holding cytoplasmic processes In-
directly in contact with the nerves.
Thus sensations are referred ones,
the hard tissues having no nerves
themselves. Surrounding the tooth
is its supporting membrane coi
taining its own nerve supply.
As you have probably noticed, x^.
pulp of a tooth has no sense
touch or localization, re.spDndian
to all stimuli it receives by sensa
tions of pain. Pain originating fro^
a pulp may be referred to almosj
any point on the same .wde of tin
jaw supplied by the fifth crania;
nerve. The cause of a toothachf
(which is only a symptom of
exciting disturbance) depends oj
whether this disturbance affects th(
pulp or the periodontal membi-mig
The ache produced by a cavity i,
really caused by bacteria or what,
ever agents cause decay. Trauma
affecting both the pulp and thi
membrane is a definite cause oj
pain. Chemicals either placed on
the tooth previous to filling q,
those arising from food and it,s de,
composition stimulate the puij
causing odontalgia. Food becominj
impacted into the pericemental
membrane produces a jiainful ab.
scess. Degeneration of the pulpal
tissue with resulting hyperemij
(increased blood supply) or pro,
duction of gas within a tightlj
closed chamber causes pressure
upon the pulpal nerves with re-
suiting pain.
Shakespeare can provide the sum,
mary of this column:
"For there was never yet phitoso.
pher
That could endurt tlie toothadie
patiently,"

students read and discussed the
great classics from Homer to
Freud instead of using pre-ar-
ranged 'pills' from text books.
This course was adopted by Co-

His ideas are expressed in his
book "Higher Learning in Amer-
ica" which was published in 1936.
By 1942 students who had com-
pleted their sophomore year of
high school were admitted to the
University. A B.A. was awarded
at the end of a program that nor-
mally required four years and now
was completed at the end of the
sophomore year of traditional col-

Professor Hutchins believes that
Beginning next week the Vic-
toria College Alumni Association

cational Guidance lectures. Al-
the function of a University Is
not social or athletic, but that
"college should teach students to

intercollegiate football was aban-
doned at Chicago. His comment to
the pilJtests that arose was "There
Is no doubt on the whole that
football has been a major handi-
cap to education in the United
States."
When tbe problem of the draft
arose Professor Hutchins said
that he did not favor exemption
for college and university stu-
dents as such since many would
enroll just to escape the draft.
Professor Hutchins, who has re-
fused positions offered to him by
the late William Randolph Hearst
and Franklin D. Roosevelt, and

Director of the Ford Foundation

reading time for most adolescents today. This new clian«e in taste has
Sifr T>i;'Ji *i, ^"J ^y^' magazines, so pop-
uis l^ly stiortages also hit the boys' week-
That is wihy the odd Triumpn, H<rtspur or Champion <m well-stocked
magazme-stands in large Canadian cities get less than « saxmd glance
now. These magazines seem dated somehow; our teen-age tastes axe
much more condiUoned to American bloodsHed and sex, ratHer than
British public schood sportsmanship and clean seideK adventure. The
eovemor-Geneml has fair reason for anxiety.
TOM BROWN'S SCHOOLDAYS .International) seems dated in tthe
same way. Not because of the Victorian attitudes of the Thomas Hughes
novel, but pecause of the closer ties with the boys'-weekly formula kit
as m the case of Dickensian films, screen fare TOM BROWWB
SCHOOLDAYS has its rewarding asipeots.. Somehow we expect British
films to emphasize British traditions, even If these aire of the Gem and
Magnet magazine variety.
The Gem and The IWagnel, for those of us wJio don't remember when
Superman first burst upon the scene in Action Comics, were two English
tuppence weeklies (five cents at the comer confectionery). Billy Btmter
Ha^ry -Wharton and Co., Gussle D'Arcy were among the public scihooi
fellows, wtiose perennial adventures we followed week by week. There were
cads among the characters, iisuaUy in Senior Forms, like Loder, Backe.
Oro<^e, etc.
And here the red-blooded Oanuok learned about fagging the never
broken ruic of not peaohing on others, the cruel sadisUc (a word we did
not know of course) master, the young sportsman master, and so on
■With the advent of Famous Funnies, Ace Comics and the Superman-
Batman entourage, tlhese milder forms of adventure-fiction paled into
oblivion. It is only with a film like TOM BROWN'S SCHOOLDAYS that
we me reminded of the days and values that used to be for some of us
near- greybeards.
TOM BBOWNS SCHOOLDAYS is photogra{ihed and directed in the
manner of the best Dickens pieces, OLIVER TWIST, GREAT EXPBC-
TAnONS, ete. The background of Rugby public sehooj is beautifully
used, some of the black-and-white shots are breathtakingly effecUve.
This style, plus the woric of several solid British diaracter actors, is the
liigihest virtue of this new flijn. T^e analogy to OLIVER TWIST can
be drawn even more closely. Both John Howard Davies and Robert
Newton are in TOM BROWN also. The young pinched-face Davies is
Tom Brown through his first timid days of fagging to second-fomi
superiority. Newton is a mild Doctor Arnold, the famous headmaster of
Rugby Chapel.
As mentioned atoove, the script of TOM BROWN is closer to The Gem
and The lUagnet than the heavily moralistic at •Riacken-aean Hughes'
original. The bully FlaAman has been considerably magnified, and it is
Tom and his friend Bast find their fulfillment when Mie bully is found
out and expelled. A strong disciple of the Arnold refonm which is more
strongly stressed in the film than in the. novel, i£ added to the scene in
the form of a Junior master. Ihis Judd even winks at Brown and East
after they have finally given Plashman a pummelling. But all this does
make an exciting film. The only sad thing is the sentimental scfjpiness
which bathes the denouement. Still it does seem authenticaUy Victorian
somehow.
Young Davies is very convincing as Twn Brown. But John Charles-
worth as East and John Forrest as Hashman are even better. Newton's
Arnold is unsatisfying, but this may be the fault of a ^tmpy role. Diana
Wynward, Kathleen Byron, and Hermione Baddeley are among those
present.

Tlmt is why some superlative films now current have not been touched
upon in this column. These include DEATH OF A SALESMAN, THE
MAN IN THE WHTTE SUIT, as well as the incoming VIVA ZAPATA.
Next week, there will be a serious attempt to cover these films, as well as
■o get as much Information as possible on fortlicoming films. RASHOMON,
tile Japanese film that topped the Venice Festival, is the next feature
at the Towne Cinema for instance.

added that most of the men in

For Uu>8c who are not yei locals
ed, there are many opportunities,
he said. First year Civil Engin-

back, with room and board there,
while the Hydro announced recent^

for Electrical and Engineering
Physics students.
New openings have also appear-
ed for Arts students. The Cana-
dian Pacific Railway has posi-
tions for railway porters, while
the Owen Sound Transportation
Company needs waiters, Halse
said. He added that vli-tually all
employers who registered with the
Hart House office last year had
returned, and that while there
were few significant new addi-
tions, he expected no difficulty in
matching last year's record of
placing 3,500 men.

tive of the National Employment

lectiire -series on "Marxism-. Rli
topic was "What Is Socialism?"
Hunter viewed socialism as a
transition stage from capitalism to
communism. He said it would j^o-
vide the full expre.ssion of individ-
uality, not in competition but in
co-operation "so that the fullest
development of all can be achieved.
Millions believe it can become a
reality," he added,
Hunter claimed mere was a ten-
dency toward regimentation in the
syst.em in which we live. "Capital-
ism itself regiments," he said.
The speaker further believed
there was no real equality of eco-
nomic opportunity under capilalism.
He explained that there wa.C a "vast
talent in our couhti-y that is being
prevented from developing lo t.he
fullest." Under capitalism "mankind
siiiifi; ui.-a(ly," he continued, "am-
bitions are thwarted, detp-adalion is
present, and the danger of war
hangs over his head." Thi?. was not
.so in socialism and com:nuiiisni. he
said.
"Socialism U the practical appli-
catiA of the science and human-
ism Sidney Smith has talked
about," Hunter said. He was refer-
ring to the recent speech bv Dr.
Smith on "Unity of Knowledge; tiie
Sciences and the Humanities" de-
livered to the Royal Canadian In-
stitute,
Socialism rejects the idea of ex-
ploitation of one man over the
other, the speaker declaretl. "It tso-
cialismi is the struggle of mankind
lo utilize his environment to e^stab-
hsh a world free from war and a
developing humanity reaching new-
er and higher levels."
Chairman Shirley Endicoll hint-
ed that Tim Buck, national leader
of the Labor Progressive Party,
may be invited to speak on the
campus next Thursday. However
nothing, as yet, is definite. Bucfc
has spoken at the University in the

, the coaat to coast televising of the Rose Bowl
ganu- i rom California. a resuU. attendance wes down at
nearlv all the other Bowl frames. One of the lesser known
games i-layed to a crowd of about a <iiiarter of the capacity
of the sl:adium and went into the red.
The devastating effect of television on U.S. sports is
clearly shown in professional athletics. Nearly half of the
National Football League teams either lost money or made
very small profits. The New York Yankee football club lost
thousands of dollars due to poor attendance, which owner
Ted Collins blamed on television. The televising of boxing
bouis has cut crowds tremiMidousIy. A recent bout at St.
Nicholas Arena in New York drew under 400 people. The
Nati(Hial Hockey League has also fell TV's sting. The Chi-
cago Black Hawks were losing so much money on Sunday
night games (which were televised), that they switched to
playhig on Sunday afternoons (which were not televised).
The attendance at the afternoon games nearly tripled. ^
The CBC has announced the inauguration of TV in
Toronto in July of this year, and will probably attempt to
televise college athletics. It would be interesting to see if
the effect would be the aame here as it was on college sports
acrostf the border.
An interesting fact is that when a team is winning, tele,
vision has proved a boom to attendance. You can pick the
good from the bad by watching games on TV for free and
then spend your money going down to see the team which
impresses you most and is uijually winning.
Var.sity is looking forward to successful years m hockey,
basketball and especially football. If this turns out, the tele-
vising of these major sports will be a good thing. Since
peoplti like to come to games to see a winning team and smce
TV will have such a large viewing audience, television should
prove an incentive to attendance. The population of greater
Toronto is, over- a million and it is expected that over halt
will have access to TV in a year or two.
It will prove an incentive to the public school and high
school athletes, who will look forward to some day playing
games which will be televised, especially with University
clubs. The success of all this and especially the maintenance
of attendance will depend on how good Toronto teams are
in the future — if and when Varsity sports are televised.
Television will be a way of getting to young athletes
the thrill of playing for University teams. Toronto has
always had the biggest field of potential athletes and there
is no rea.^on why Varsity shouldn't have winning teams.
However if Blue teams do bog down and fail to make
good .showings against the other colleges as they did last
night in the game with Western, the same thing will probably
happen here as it has in the United States. Attendance will
drop at the games as the average spectator will want to stay

John Fingland who saw action
with last year's Blues has also been
brought up from the Intermediates,
to replace Paul Prendergast who
didn't moke the trip. Fingland will

Off For Queen's
To Regain Title
The -Blue Boxing team, slightly
depleted by injuries and other Im-
pediment^;, is off to Kingston to try
to regain the Intercollegiate cham-
pionship. Only one, Howard Green-
ley, won the championship in his
weight group last year, so they will
be almost a cinch to do no worse

A lasl-minute change wa,s re-
■quired a day before the team left.
Lari-y Waden, who replaced John
Green, out with a broken hand,
the 165 pound class, could not go
and had to be replaced him-self.
As a result. Pete Fetcoff, who was
a couple of pounds over hts 155
pound cla^s limit, moved up to 165
and Herb Til^on wa-s injected into
the line-up in Petcoff's place. Til-
son has had little boxing experience,
but is a good all-round athlete and
is long on courage.

Editor. The Varsity:
I aliould iilt« to attempt to clarify a pai-adox
which has beeii brotig-ht to the attention of the
student body by Mt. John I>evereux. In a letter
which appeared in last Friday's Varsity lie argiued
Ohat reveiencing the memory of cm- late Monalx^h
16 worshipping the idol of British imijerialisni.
which he seemed to consider to he a wicked and
unjust force, seeking to destroy the freedom and
undermine the broWierhood of the peoples of tlie
earth. This, he said, is incompatible wdth the
ideals of Ohristtainity, whioli those wlio lionoi-ed
the Ktng pi-ofessed.
Let us fia-st look a the British Enipu'e, rep-
resented by Mr. Devereux as a tyrannical <^'e.
Like almost eiTervthing else, equity and benevolence
are relative in colonial administration. Therefore,
before condemning the Britis'h Em,piii-e. an intel-
ligent observer will do well to compare its history
with those of the other great imperiaj powers of
the modem age — Spain and Prance. Surely it is
not very difficult to decide which of these thi-ee
powers ha^ been mjost benign in its colonial ad-
ministration. Further, let us reflect for a mo-
ment upon the liistories of the tliree severest and
most outspoke7i critics of the Empire — Gea-many
and Russia, with their histoiies of the ruthless
suppression of apibject peoples, and the United
States, -with its hard -to -forget "Big Stick" policy
in Latin Anherica. Does Mr. Devereux consider any
of tliese to toe an Improvement on British rule?
But in faai-ness to Mr, Devereux, it is probable
that what he objected to was the interference of
any sort toy the CSreat Powers in the affaii's ot
othea- nations. This argomient has much to toe said
for it. Pei-haps Mr, Devereux is rigilit on this point.
But when we consider tJie histories of such wonders
of independence m Mexico and Bolivia and those
of British colonies, such as Kenya and Britlfili
Guiana, the detrimental effects of imperial ad-
ministration are not so apparent as one might
expect.
I do not claim that British imperiaiisan has
been faultless. Far from it: irt; has oeen cliaa^ac-
ten-iaed, like all systems of government, by a
multiplicity of evils and sihortcomings. Its promo-
ters were only hmnan. But let ue not close our
Foiled Or Fulfilled
Tradition has let uk down.
In the normal course of events, about this time of year
A fenct? is erected around the front campus. The undergradu-
ate takes this as the traditional reminder that it is tune to
get down to some seriou.-^ studying, and extracurricular activ-
ities sink beneath wavea of conscientiousness. To the
Btudent editor, the fence Ls a catalyst for the formation of
opinion along such serious lines as the Importance of Study
and the Purpose of the Llniversity Education, ,^nd for tender
words to and about the graduating students.
But thi5 muddled year the fence was erected in the fall,
throwing tradition to the dogs, and confusing the poor be-
extra-curriculared students. .
FortuJiately, an offtiide remark at Wednesday nights
meeting of the Students' Administrative Council has had
much the same effect as the fence was wont to have m its
dependable days. . , Tr -4^
The remark (in connection with the proposed Varsity
radio sUtion) went something like this: *'It's all very well
for the Council to create more activities for the student,
already swamped with them. But we must keep in mind
what the student ia here for. He is, after all, here primarily
to study." , , , L jr- J —

the time of year when fences should be sprouting, anti nis ^^^^^^ to run The varsity:
thoughts tend to go along lines like, "What haa the Univer- - - -
sity of Toronto meant to me?" The answers, of course, vary
widely.
But no matter what the answer may be, it is almost
certain that the student's ideas of the university and its pur-
pase will have changed markedly since his freshman days.
His iiersonality, too. will probably be different.
When the freshman, .sophomore or junior is a.sked,
"What are you going to do after you graduate?" his answer
is liable to "be facetious or hu.morous. With the senior, it is
a vital question. It makes him reconsider his ideas of the
university, and test those ideas by his own experience.

government, improvements in agriculture and iq
the standard of living, and Whe Pax Bi-itaiwiica
whicli it has conferred upon the lands under ita
jurL'>diction. And let us not foi-g^t that it hiij
worked cotisistently for the development of greater
freedom, independence and equahty in the coim,
tries it ruled.
Finally, since Mr. Deveieux called imperialism
a denial of the brotherhood of man, might i astc
him to ponder carefuJly the relative social statuse-i
allowed to Negroes in the Southern part of the
Great American Republic and on the British
isJand of Jamaica.
British imperialism, then, does not seem to be
the monstrous vampire of his description, but ^
system federating lands of settled government.
"Where freedom slowly broadens dowii
From precedent to precedent."
Thus we have only to consider wheWier it u
rigilit, moral and Christian to reveretioe the menioiy
of a g"Od king and great man, who loved the
people lie ruled. Called in troubled times to tlie
woiid's gi-eatest throne, which he mie^ht weli have
declined had he wished to, he led his peoples
through tJie dai-k days of their histoi-y to victot^^
safety, ajid peace. His unflinching and faithful ser-' -
vice to God and to his subjects endeared him to
all the peoples of this great Empire, and indeed
of the whole world. Is it wi-ong for a person to
honor the memory of one whom he loved and re-
spected?
But Mr. Devereux lias one more insidious
thrust to make: he implies that tlie scra-ow of the
multitiuies was enforced by theia:""lea4ers. Enforc-
ed sonx)w? Hiiti is not onJy ibeneath comment
but beyond belief.
Ml-. Devereux has a perfect r^ht to hold and
express the convictions of his choice. My puri>i!«
is not to insult or censure him or anyone else, but
merely to point out that tliere is no pai-adox in
Christian subjects paying their i^espects to their
deceased kin^. In the w^s of the a>p<wtle, Pa^jl.^j
"Render therefore to all their dues: tribute t,o
whom tiibute is due; custom to whom custojii;

Brotherhood
Unlimited, vs
Mankind, Ltd.
Editor, The Varsity:
I read eageriy through your
editorial Monday on "Belated
Brotherhood," thinking that an
observing mind had written t<he
article and would, with the aid
of clever language, say something
worthwhile and to the point in
the end. I admired the way you
pointed out man's tendency to
stick to neighbors of his own
kind. I enjoyed also the way you
described the superficial profes-
sional tolerator. Touchet It is
perhaps very worth while to
point out to some well in ten-
tioned people on our campus the
weakness and danger of their
indulgence in superficial brother-
hood. That sort of thing is in-
deed worse than a frank anti-
toleration.
Howeyer, your conclusion was
weak, it would aeem to say that
real brotherhood itself is a weak
thing, since we are able to shift
the focus of our discrimination
from day to day. For example,
witness how although we are
learning to love our enemies of
the last war we are starting to
hate the enemies of the expected
future war. But I wish to point
out that this is not because
■ brotherhood — the true kind —
can only go so far. It is because
human beings have gone only so
far. What is wrong witii human
society today is not its structure
so much as its humans —
you and me. It's you and me
that have to change. "And
good dose of more brotherhood

Urge Hostelers
Jorn Can. Club
Canadian students planning to use Youth Hostel facili
ties in Europe or the Uniled States must \>e members of
the Canadian Association before they will be admitted,' C. A.
Harris, National Executive Secretary of the Canadian Youth
Hostels Association announced recently.
This is a new policy decided upon at the last World
Conference of Youth Hostel Associations, he explained.
Canadians who want to use European hostels, but who have
no Canadian membership, will be
allowed a temporary 30-day pass
for the country in which they are
stayhig, but will be expected to
write to Canada lor any extension.

In Basketball at Hart House
BY MAI, CRAWFORD
Hitting the win oolumn again after two losses, the Basketball Blues took McGill
apart 70-40 at the Athletic Night in Hart House gym Saturday night. The score was closer
than it was when McGill visited Hart House last year, but at no time was the issue in any

toughest nights when playing Toronto. At L)ndon Friday night, the Redmen gave Western

The game was not the best bas-
ketball the Blues have provided
this season; they did not have to
play their best to win. However,
they settled down to a fast effec

a ragged first half. The last period,
in which they scored 23 points, sent
the local fans home happy, even
though it made the tired McGiU
crew look pretty sad.

Press Employees
Strike For Bonus
Employees of the University of
Toronto Press have now been of-
ficially on strike for six days.
They walked off the job Tuesday.
February 26, when it was learned
that the employers refused to give
women employees the same cost-
of-living compensation as men.
The employees are members of
the American Federation of La-
bor's Bookbinders' Union (Local
28).
The issue of equalltr of cost-of-
living payments is one of particu-
lar concern to the bookblndere,
since about 65 per cent of the
union's membership are women.
Over 50 bookbinding shops are af-
fected by the walkout.
The union has also asked for.
wage increases, and. at a Febru-
ary 24 membership meeting, turn-
ed down the wage senttlement
proposed by the companies. The
union is asking an increase from
Sl,67'-2 to S1.95 for men. and from
89''2 cents to $1.10 for women. Em-
ployers had offered $1.91 and $1.02
for men and women respectively.
The University of Toronto Press
is located behind the old Chemical
Building on the south side of the
Physics Building. Three picket-
ers (one man and two women)
were seen marching along College
Street between St. George and
University Avenue last Thursday.
They were carrying placards on
their backs asking lor "better con-
ditions."
an -international organization pro-
viding cheap lodging for travellers
on foot or bicycle. Hitchikers and
motorcyclists are not permitted to
use tlie facilities, since the Asso-
ciation wants its members to travel
slowly and meet people, not only
see landmarks.
National Associations have put up
a network of hostels— or lodges —
ctcross Europe, Canada and the
United States. In Europe the cost
of a night's lodging is 30 or 35
cents, Harris said; in Canada it is
a little more.
At the hostel, bedding and cook-
ing equipment are provided. Stores
are close by. or. in tiie case of
some European hostels, the hostel
itself sells food. The only equipment
the hiker or cyclist need carry is a
sheet sleeping sack, mess kit. and
clothes. This shouldn't weigh more
t>han 26 pounds, the Association es
timates.
The Youth Hostels Association is
a non-profit organization depend-
ing mainly on government and pri-
vate grants. Memberships, which
are $2.50 for those over 21 years
of age, play only a small part in
the total income.
The Canadian national office. lA
Classic Avenue, has pamphlets With
detailed Information aout youth
hostels in all member countries.
There Is also an International
Handbook with general information
On all the countries.
He added that any increase in
the powers of the federal govern-

Leo is a big smile on short legs.
He is a chubby litile man in the
blue jacket who always gives you
a cheerv '■hello" when you're
working late at night in the base-
ment of University College, and
are keeping him from going home
on time.
He is the only school or college
caretaker I liave ever met who
doesn't seem soured on life in
general and students in particular.
He is Leo of Whitney Hall: part-

I much more important) the man
in charge of the CC Women's
Residences.
It is his job to keep thing run-
ning smoothly in Whitney Hall
and tlie other residences; to sup-
ervise the other three men on his
staff; to make sure the floors are
shining, the furnaces stoked, the
dirty linen in the laundry room
and the clean in the linen closet.
If a lock jams, the cry goes out
for Leo; if a light bulb burns out,
he replaces it; if pranksters leave
a car parked in the Hall's main
entrance (as once happened*, it is
up to Leo and his staff to get. it
out of there.
And all the f iris in the l esidence
know Leo. He is the Utile man
who fixes broken windows, and.
you know, things like that. Most
wonderful of all. he is the man
who stores the trunks, and suit-
cases of 200 girls, and yet can
find any one of them at any time.
("You're got to lake special care
of the freshies; it's often the first
time they've left home, and they're
liable to have foj gotten a shipping
ticket, or something. But I've
never lost a trunk on its way home
yet.")

Hall But the girls wiU tell you
stories like ihe time he hoisted
one of tliem into her room through
the transom when she lost her
key. And even Leo will say that
you never know what may hap-
pen while you're changing a light
bulb in one of the halls.
"You've got to be careful work-
ing in a woman's residence", he
says, and what he tells all new
men- "Keep your mouth shut, your
eyes closed, and mind your own
business, and everything will be
O.K."
Miss Ferguson, the Dean of
Whitney Hall, has only words ol
praise for Leo. "He has a buoy-
ant faith in people", she explains,
"and a body without a sour note
in it." He is quite a bit different
from his predecessors, she adds.
Even mors important, accord-
ing to the Dean, is his ability to
serve the "double constituency" ol
the Hall's administrative staff and
the residents themselves, to find
time to carry out the requests of
both bodies — and to do it cheer-
fully.
In return, Leo wilt t«U you that
the white-haired Dean ol Women
at UC is a wonderful person to
work for— but you've got to do your
work p^-operly."
Many people know Leo's fii"st
name but few know his family
name in Cole, or that he was bom
in Surrey 56 years ago. coming
over to Canada when he was 22
years old. You have to press him
to get him to talk about himself:
he much prefers to talk about
Whitney Hall and his work there
and in other parts of the campus.
He is also proud of his discharge
button from World War I. and the
Mons Star which accompanies it.
Leo has been working at the Uni-
versity for 30 years now. In that
time has seen three presidents in
office, and has watched Simcoe
Hall. Whitney Hall, and the
Engineering buildings grow-
around him. He remembers Ban)
ing and Best when they were
ing research in Toronto. But al
though the University has chain,
ed in the past ihree decades, he
sees little change in the studenta
—except that maybe they are more

Urge NFCUS Exchange
Through Scholarships
To Unite Provinces
Br I>EN HARBOUR
MeGIll NFCDS Committee Chib men.
Provincialism is detrimental lo
the unity of Canadian society.
NFCUS exchange scholarsiiips
can provide a definite means of
overcoming tills detriment. Tliis
system of sending students from
Canadian universities to study for
one vear at a university in another
section of the country, tends to
create a better understandmg of
the culture and society of the wide-
ly different parts of our country.
It has long been evident at
N F C n S national conferences,
where student leaders meet to dis-
cuss problems pertaining to the
Btudent population, that, before
an understanding can be reached,
provincial bias must be overcome.
When a student society has with-
in its membership, a considerable
number who have seen, and stud-
led other parts of Canada, its
leaders provide a considerable
benefit to the progress of nation-
al student unity.
Not only do NPCUS exchange
BCholarships benefit students in
general, but also the individuals
who use them. Evidence tor this
will be found in other columns of
this issue. Furthermore, however.
they provide the student with op-
portunities to study courses given
at other universiUes which are
not offered here.
It must be remembered that a
university education is not aimed
at the sole purpose of obtaming a
degree It is means to cultivate a
sense of decent citizenship among
the future leaders of the country.
The broader the education the larg-
er will be the capacity of a stu-
dent to enter into this citizenship.
Those students who are able to
benefit from these scholarships
will be of the type whose influence
will not onlv be felt in their stu-
dentship, but also in their future
citizenship.
At this university, although It
is one of the most cosmopolitan in
the country, the number of ^u-
denls tailing advantage of the
benefits of these exchange schol-
arships has been small.
It is to the benefit of the mdi-
vidual and the student society in
as helping to overcome our own
particular brand of individualism
that NFCUS exchange scholarships
be put to wider use by McGill
students.

The evening's entertainment
baleonj viewpoint
By FRANK MOBITSUGU
vrvA ZAPATA! (Imperial) was made toy director Elia Kazan with
Marlon Brando as Mexican revoluUonary Etmiliano Zapata. This ic
their second film together tJie first being the high-flying A STREIET-
CAR NAMED DESIRE, one of IftSt year's best films. VIVA ZAPATAI
does not quite hit STREETCAR'S level. Perha^as this is why many
critics have been panning this new fUm severely. But VIVA ZAPATAI
i6 an exciting satisfying fUm, don't let anyone sell you short.
Joiin Stelmbecik is responsible for the writing of VTVA ZAPATAI
Hieirefcwe, instead of l*ie magnifying-glass view ol ugly city life by
Tennessee Williams, we get a naive socdal consciousness and some
lyrical sentimentality. And essentially, the lessei- success of this new
tthn ca-n tie blammed uipon Sfcela*eck'E heaVy pen.
AnoUier ooiitiast is that unlike Vivien Leigh and Kijn Hunter,
two effective actj^sses, the womenfolk in ZAPATAI are weak sisters.
As Zapata's wife. Jean Peteans is pretty but beyond her scope. In a rare
a^jpearance as the woman ot one of Zaipata's erstwhile lieutenants,
Margo only bffxXKls inteaiselj'. Perhaps Maxgo's lack of distinction is
due to tJie elimination of one whole sequence — an attempt to revenge
her man by kiJhjig Za-pata in his bedroom. This cutting may be d-ue
to demands of time or to the sensitivities of the censor. As a result
Margo turns out to be an enigmatic type, flashing into life only when
sibe is ireading a dynamite plot against a military fort.
But even if Steinbeck's oontriflxiUon is disappointing, dii-ector Kazan
has fashioned this story of bloody Mexico during 1911-19 mto an
enjoyable film. Some high moments include Zapata being i-esoued
from tihe R-urales (police) by his people who sUently surround the
iwlice party Za^pata's finai death, and his proposal scene with Josela
(Jean petei-s) in which provertK and fans beat rhythm whUe relatives
keep audience.
Brando lapses into Kowalski-isms only a few times; mostly he
lives up to his makeup as an ideahstic lead«: of rebellious peasants.
But a swaggering coarse Antihony Quinn as Zapata's brother, Bufemio,
steals the Sl«>w easUy. Quinn seems to be having the time of his life
and he is savagely convincing. Joseph Wiseman Is the viJlam of the
piece Wiseman swred weU as the hoodhim in DETECTIVE STORY,
but he has retained the tendency to shake and scream. In ZAPATA!
as a sinister Intellectual joumaJist, he gets too worked up.
It has been pointed out that the real Zapata was not such a goody-
Koodv and he had more than one wife as he went along bloodying
^a<^. But this really doesn't matter. VIVA ZAPATA! is a film packed
with good things.
Tlhe Museum Theatie was packed yesterday afternoon for the
long-awaited showing of EXTASE, the film that made Hedy (Lamair)
Keisler an intei-natjonal oeletority. Because of some heavy outs that
made the film i-athei- choppy, it is difficult to give EXTASE a com-
pletely fair appraisal. It was made in 1933 in Czechoslovakia
Gustev Machaty. v-'ho also made a film called EROKTIKA.
The version we saw had some dubbed-in Fi-ench dialog, but most
of the movie consisted of toooding clcseups of the faces of the young
Lamaxr. her aged husband, and hex young surveyor -lover. Adde<l to
this was a collection of obvious symbols, which flashed alternately
with the human closeups to show us what was going on mentally.
Mucfh of the film seemed heavy and overlong. Perhaps the early date
is some excuse.
Yet the mating of the horses, the subsequent love-making of the
girl and the young man, the fearful race to the railway crossing by the
husband who realizes his young passenger has cuckolded him, are
tastefully and effectively done. The notorious sequem:e of Lamarr
'bathing in the nude and losing her cJothes as her mare bolts is out
sevwely. So mudli so that as she flees panic-stricken, we are not sutne
whether we are watching an old-style comedy or just being nasty
Peeping Toms. Either way we are uncomfortable.
EXTASE tells of a young bride whose elderly husband fails her.
Separation physical lulifillment. and the husband's suici-Je follow.
Lawrence did this nmch better in Lady Chatterly. But, of course, no
one has filmed that novel. Perhaps the highest compliment which can
be paid this ftlm is that there were no giggles or snickers yesterday
during the love scene in the surveyor's lodge.
When EXTASE is shown cn American television, the kids will
become even more loyal to old Hopalong and his Bar-20 pals. Faye
Emerson and Dagmar don't have to worry about competition either.

Miss Rao is a favourite speaker
at many women's clubs. "There are
equal rights for men and women in
India, and we beat Canada by one
year on equal pay for men and
women. Women are not arred from
any business trade or profession.
"Before the tenth century, women
were considered and educated as
equals with men. After the tenth
century, women were hidden be-
liind curtains for safety and early
child marriages were arranged to
protect them. Now. with greater
education Ithere are 325 colleges
la India. 45 exclusively for women) ,
students are rebelling against ar-
ranued marriages." As far as the
r^itkiaraental value of education.
Miss Rao thinks. "Primary educa-
tion is the structure and basis of a
nation, without literacy, people
tannot think."
In India, the mother Is ' Queen
Br PEARL FARNES
of the house"; the father Just
hands out the money. "Life pivots
around mother and her word of
law." Miss ' Rao i£ constantly
amazed at the number of Canadian
women who belong to clubs. "I
can't understand how they can
take care ol their homes, husbands,
families, money and cars and still
find time to belong to clubs."
India's liberal policies apply to
religion as well as women. Although
the country Has seven religions and
13 major languages, "religion is be-
tween the individual and God. and
there is complete religious toler-
ance."
In the early centuries. Alexander
the Great called India 'the mys-
terious golden bu-d of the east." A
more recent writer has spoken of
the "grace of India." Miss Rao reels
the sari. India's national dress,
typifies this grace. They're wonder-
fully easy to move in. and seem
to affect the whole manner of
standing and walking. In contrast
to the ordinary apparel of heavy
boots. Miss Rao is a familiar figure.

"floating across the campus in pale
pink and pale green." Some of the
male visitws to the House have
called her '"the sugar-plum lairy'
of the Nutcracker Suite."
A lonf-8tanding interest in dra-
matics took Miss Rao to the Banll
School of Fine Arts in the summer
of 1950. She studied drama and
writing, and last year wrote a play
for the International Student Or-
ganization on this campus.
People are always amazed at Miss
Rao's excellent knowledge of Eng-
lish and her adaptability to this
country which she calls her second
home. "When I first came, I was
helpless," she remembers. "I de-
manded a butler to carry my bags,
then a maid to make my bed. I
had to learn to do it all myself. lor
I had never done it before. I aLso
had to learn to wash and iron my
clothes when I found that no one
picked them up to launder each
Saturday." She also makes her own
saris, "out of your wonderful Cana-
dian nylon," and looks after her
room,'' which is furnished in Indian
style, with a tapestry from the
Punjab woven by peasant women,
vases, brassware and an ancient

Poor Judging^-Reporter
By FRED FISCHEL
Kingston, March 2. (Stafl) —
Queen's University captured the
Seiiior Intercollegiate Boxing Cham-
pionships in the tournament held
at Kingston this weeltend by ac-
cumulating a staggering total of 24
points. McOUI captured second place
with 7 points and OAC was third
with 6. The luckless Toronto crew
wound up in the cellar with 3 points.
The Competition was not as one-
sided as this score would indicate,
but the judges, who obviously scored
according to the amount of cheer-
ing given to the home-town boys,
' committed unpardonable blunders.
This {eeling was best expressed by
the McGill coach when he said tliat
the only way to beat a Queen's man
in this tournament was by K.O. or
T.K.O. Actually two Queen's boxers
did lose, one of theie memorable
deeds being achieved by a Toronto
'eye when lie was axjcidently but-
ted by Sweet. Russ had completa
control of the first two rounds an(i
though Sweet held an edge in the
third, it did not appear great enough
to justify the Judgc'.s decision, bu
the previous night, Reilly defeated
G. Bracken of O.A.C. by & TKo
at 1:40 of the third.
In the 140 pound Xiaam, Mike
Wright, the Toronto entry, lost ht-i
semi-final to F. P. Baker of OAC,
Although Wright was the better
boxer of the two, Baker out-fought
him throughout the bout. In the
Saturday night final Baker was the
victim of such an obvious blunder
that even the spectators booed the
decision in favour of Queen's Der-
rich.

Carabins Take Varsity 3-1
Blues Lose Hockey Trophy
' Br BARRY THOMAS -
Montreal, March 2— (Staff )— The Montreal Carabins,
playing in top form, defeate<l the A^1^sity Blues 3-1 on Satur-
day night in Verdun to capture the Intercollegiate cham-
pionship laurels, which they had relinquished last year to the
same Blues. After beating McGill 5-3 on Friday night the
hard-trying Blues just couldn't cope with the speedy Mont-
realers who came up with one of their best games of the
season to cop the important game.
till the end of the game they just
couldn't find the net. However,
Lheii- downfall lay mostly in the
fh'st two periods when they were
outplayed by the new champions
and didn't manage to get more
than seven or eight shots on the
Montreal goat. It was a different
story at the other end of the rink.
The shifty Carabins poured the
Both Varsity and V. of M. each
jiave one game left with McGill,
while Laval has finished its sched-
ule. The Blues must win this Fri-
day's final game i£ they hope to
gain a tie with Lavai for second
place.
Friday night's game was actually
fl dull affair, played before a crowd
of not more than 400. However,
part of the last period and the |
overtime frame did provide some
tense moments as both teams open-
ed up in their style of play.
Centre Don Rope led the Blues
with a fine three goal performance
including an overtime clincher
scored on an open McGill net. The
Bedmen were by no means a push-
over and at times looked as if they
intended to jar Blues' champion-
ship hopes right there and then.
An early first period goal by Don
Robertson gave the home towners a
1-0 lead which they held on to
until the 30 second mark of the
r .second period when Rope tied it
' after being given a perfect pass by
a McGill defenceman.
Gene Robillard scored the first
of two goals to again put the Red-
men in front at the 2.02 mark.
Defencemon Red Stephen put the
Blues back on even terms near the
end of the middle period when he
made a length of the rink rush to
circle the net and then slap in a
pass from Rope.
Robillard and Rope each scored
their second goal in the thud period
to send the game into overtirrie. At
the 7.20 mark Captain Ernie Prey
notched the winner when he push-
ed a low shot past MacLennan into
the short side of the McGill net.
Centre Jack MacKenzie set up the
play -with a pass-out to Prey from
the corner. In the dying minutes
of the game MacLennan was re-
moved in favour of a sixth for-
ward but the move backfired when
Rope completed his hat trick.
Saturday night the Blues just
didn't have it. When they did ac-
tually catch fire in the thhrd period,
Jt was too late, as time ran out
on theu- belated drive. Tlie Carabins
scored once in each period, with
the last one being the goal that
reaUy sank me Blues. It wasn't
until half way through the last
period that reliable Ernie Frey
saved the Bluea from a whitewash
when he tipped in a long pass from
MacKenzie.

Western, the intercollegiate
wrestling champs shaded Toronto
19-18 at Hart House Saturday night.
Despite the close score the match
was very uneven, Toronto scored
10 of their points on defaults when
opponents for Joe Goldenberg and
Harry Robinson failed to show up.
Five more points came on Hata-
shita's victory.
At Gladstone, intermediate
champion, moved up to replace
senior champ Walt Pitman. He
managed to outlast Bewell of
Western to fill out the eighteen
points.
Hatashita's victory came at two
minutes of the first round. Hata-
shita took his man down landing
him stomach up. He simply stay-
ed on top until the fall which came
about thirty seconds later.
Western's Malo scraped by Paul
Phelan when he reversed with
twenty seconds to «o to take a 2-0
victory. The bout was very even
with no time advantage being
awarded.
Preston of Western pinned Bill
Bush, Toronto replacement, at 1.40
of the second. The score was tied
4-4 when Western took the fall.
Terry Sumner of the Mustangs
took a 13-2 decision over Glen
McCormlck intermediate replace-
ment.
Leon Smith lost, a 6-0 de-
cision to Andry of the Mustangs
Larry Skitch" lost his bout by a
fall. He was called in from the
spectators when Doug Hamilton
failed to appear.
The whole affair was rather a
dull anticlimax to last week's fin-
als as none of the fighters except
Al Gladstone seemed to have their
hearts in the fight. The match
had been postponed because of the
King's death and this rather ob-
viously cost wrestling fans a good
match.

The following article by Waller Bloch, IV Electrical
Ensrincering, suggests that the accepted authoritarianism
of this university helps to defeat the purpose and idea of
tlie university itself.
. . . Grave or Foundation
Lest We Forget
If the most frustrated committee of the Students*
Administi-ative Council was to be chosen we are sure that
tihe Student Union Committee would stand high on the list
of nominees. It has shown a propensity to sit about and
brood in silence, but the only alternative — action — has
•eemed almost impossible this year.
For nigh unto forty years, there hag been sporadic
plumping for a coeducational sturlent union. Indeed, as early
&s ISt}-!. The Varsity printed an architect's drawing of a pro-
posed student union. Three years ago, the Students' Adminis-
trative Council organized efforts by setting up a Memorial
Student Union' Committee.
Now. the long drawn out campaign begins to look like
a game of chess between student.^ and Administration with
experience and continuity to the latter's advantage. It has
been a series of hopes raised by students and subse(iuently
dashed by the Administration.
Last year President Smith announced that the $599,000
of the Building Fund surplus (indirectly and unofficially ear-
marked for the Student Union) was rapidly being swallowed
up by increased building costs. In short, no money for
student union. This rallied students round the union cause
with unprecedented enthusiasm.
The SAC cheerfully countered the Administration's
check by inviting a student union expert to investigate the
nee<ls. And the Administration grracefully agreed to pay his
costs.
Thereupon everyone sat about waiting to see what the
Great Man, Edgar Whiting would propose. It was hardly a
ahock. He, too, was "firmly convinced that a building which
will provide space for organized campus groups, accom-
modatiuns for women only, and facilities for both men and
women is badly needed." Amusingly enough, his suggestions
corresponded roughly to those of the students themselves.
Fortunately for the Administration, spring examinations
interceded, calling the intermission at a most propitious
time for them. And the Lethe of the summer holidays fol-
lowed.
This, year's Committee quite simply asked the Adminis-
tration for permission to hold a fund raising drive. Now, the
Simcoe Hall refusal was hardly surprising; it simply indicat-
ed what many had suspected for some time. The Adminis-
tration does not want to build a student union now — if ever.
Yet the Student Union Committee grasped at the straw
of hope cast lightly from the upper windows of Simcoe Hall
— further discussion. Alx>ut all they can hoi>e from this would
be a distinct "no" — a tantalizing pro.spect. But from those
well versed in the mellifluous verbalism of diplomacy, such
r is hardly a possibility. Much time has been wasted in an
attempt to get a further "no". In fact, a whole year.
What now? According to the hierarchical organization
of the University of Toronto, an Administrative veto marks
an end to any student project — particularly those involving
money. Perhaps such organization is not ideal but thus it
remains. And unless the SAC wishes to encourage revolution
on this barren ground, little hope i-emains for the student
union — at present.
The Student Union Committee might better have spent
its time this year investigating other possibilities, such as
the Observatory, That unused monstrosity might provide
facilities for various Council activities — one of the lesser
goals of the original plan.
I Or perhaps, the Administration might be persuaded to
erect a plaque on one of the projected union sites. It woyld
provide a fitting memento mori for those of the university
jrt»o died in the Second World War, and for the Memorial
Student union itself, which looks as if it had perished at an
llldeterminable date in the post war era
In a recent, issue of The Varsity. Mr. Wmtrob
asks if and why students "spend their time arg-u-
ing on purely abstract, vag'iie generalities." As one
of a number of reasons, he suggests that we are
"overawed".
This sugge;stion warrants further elaboration,
since it is doubtful whether the frequenters of this
ranipu.s oi-e in fact attending a Uni\'er5ity. Tra-
ditionally, a University is a group of students
with the more advanced giving a helping hand
to the beginners, Here in Toronto, this ideal has
been debauched into a system of authoritarian in-
struction. The depths to which we have sunk are
examplified by the fact that the "senior student"
can declare with impunity, -'As long as I am I*i-esi-
dent of this Univer-itity . . . there wiU be no
athletic scholarships . . . there wiH be no alcohol
On the campus . . ."
In the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineeir-
ing at least (and probably iii other faculties too,
though I am not competent to speak for them),
the academic work consists exohisively of slavishly
memorizing facts for unthinking i-ecit-ation at ex-
amination time, and anv opportiuiity the student
miglit have for independent thought, is stringently
curtailed by tlte demand of an excessive number
of laboratory i-eports. When lecturei-s ignore Uie
fundamentals of education and concentiate on
how instead of why. is it surprising that when the
student does manage to steal a few minutes for
reflection, he concentrates on the fundamental
why, even at the risk of being called a philosopher?
Smely the piinciple of energy transfoi-mation
is more important than the mere fact that when
electricity passes through a glass -enclosed wij'e
under the right conditions, ligiht and heat are
given off. Tlie logical result of bhis kindei-garten
attitude is the call for a five year course, since the
present fom- years are cluttered with details —
in-elevaait details whicli would requii'e no more
than a passing mention if the students were given
a thorough groimding in tlie physics of engineer-
ing.
If this urge to keep the student constantly occu-
pied were limited to one faculty, there would be
no problem. SPS could simply be recognized as a
technical school, and lemoval from the campus.
Unfortunately such action, far from solving the
problem, would only remove one of its more bla-
tant examples.
The complaint of innumerable assignments ia
prevalent in evei-y course. Would it not be rv
sible to keep the total of directed study to a mk.^
mum of twenty or so hours a week, and let n
interested student do some unprescribed readi
the rest of the time? The failua-e rate would rt»v.''^
ably climb under such a ^y^n-trm. nowever. it
generally agreed that people who have to be forcM
to work have no business in a University in ^
first place, so why all this effort to keep then
there? Surely the interests of the genuine studem
are more important. After the sb;ty hours a weei-
of forced labouj- under the present s.vstem. evoi
tlie most ardent is apt to become sick and tiroti
of his cliosen field of study. It is a^bout time th^
University of Toronto started stimulathig
thirst for knowledge, instead of doing its best t,^
drown the thirsty.
The same clammy hand of totalitarian authoriiv
clamps down at all student initiative in tlie e.^ti-a
curricular field. Two outstanding examples of this
oppi'ession are the Admiiiisti-ation's attitude to the
Student Union, and the recent and even hi^h,
handed ourb on student activities, wJiich. incident'
ally, deprived the student body of the opportunity
of showing its respect for the late king by
spontaneous gestua*.
Another bouquet for complete disregard of stu.
dent opinion goes to the Abiiletic Directorate. Thi^
body iw>t only assumes competency to dictate what
the student shall wear (The Varsity, F^. 27,
but has the added impertinence to place itself be-'
yond the authority of the Caput, for during tiie
week of enforced mourning, . its skating pariiea
continued as if nothing had haippened.
The so-called music from bhe University rini;
also disturbs the studies of hundreds of students
living in the vicinity of the campus. Seveml com-
plaints have been made, but the standard aa^-ww
of the Directorate to such "crack-pots" is, "It's been
going on for forty years, and if you don't like it,
you can move." Presumably this answer has aLs<i 1
been given for forty years — originality never has !
been a bureaucratic foi te.
In the final analysis, the student body finances
the Athletic Association, and when such an ansi^er
can be given repeatedly and with impunity Ijy
the hired help, it is not surprising that the stu-
dent body is slowly leaving the field of concrete
action, and turning instead to obstraot thought.
Here at least. n.-o authoritarian control itas been
established as yet.

OUR READERS WRITE
Snap Deeiision?
A' group of Arts students from
U. of T. fa-cultiei. barely escaped ar-
rest yesterday as they paraded down
Jarvis Street in a mass demonstra-
tion. Although the students avoided
committing a breach of civil law by
caJling out only 49 pai'aders. seveial
other i-eputed to be Engineers
swelled the ranks.
The demonstratoi-s avoided arrest
by fiUi^ along the sidewalks in or-
derly fashion. In fact, they wea'e so
oixierly that they were completely
inconspicuous. If this reporter liad
not been tipped off, the pai-ade
would have gone completely un-
noticed.
The students carried signs pro-
testing the fact that their course at
the university was limited to three
years, "Why should the professional
faculties be allowed to waste four,
five, six, seven, eight, or more years
in a course while we are limited to
three measly yeairs?" said Simon
Glup, III Mid - century Basket
Weaving.
Glup led the parade carrying a
sig]i which read: Why should tJhe
professional faculties be allowed to
waste foiw. five, six, seven, eight, or
more years in a coui'se while we are
limited to three measly yeai-s?
Murgatroyd Beasley, I Ceramics
in Samoa, carried a sign reading;
"WHY?"'.
The several chaps said to be from
the south end of the campus
stopi>ed frequently in front of Jar-
vis Street hotels holding signs read-
ing: "WE WANT MORE".
Tlie demonstrators printed 4,500
pamphlets. One was given to an el-
derly unshaven gentle»nari leaning
against a fire hydrant, anobher to a
young lady supported by a lamip-
post. Only 4.4S8 pamphlets were
not distributed.
Tlie pamphlets called bhe atten-
tion of the public to the fact that
their taxes are lielping to support
the students. "Is it justice that the
apeinJizing faculties ai'e allowed to
avoid employment for twice as loi\g
as those who are becoming broad-
minded intellectuals? No. We don't
like bhe idea of going to work any
more than anyone else. LETTS

Editor, The Varsity:
It has always fascinated me as
to how the Student Administra-
tive Council reaches its decisions.
In fact, I have been spending
most of my time lately trying to
figure out just how the SAC ap-
pointed an editorial board, and
for what reasons.
It seems to me that some im-
portant factors have been over-
looked.
(1) The wliole thing is uncon-
stitutional. The SAC has neither
the power bo elect a Board of
Editors -in -Chief nor a Board of
"Three" who would elect an
Editor-in-Chief by themselves.
But Dr. McBimie, cliairman of
the SAC. only answers that
' things can be overlooked" and
the constitution should not hem
us in. Of what use is bhe con-

stitution then? Tlirow it in the
waste paper basket.
(2) The question, and it is an
important question, of experience
has been overlooked. The Consti-
tution of the SAC suggests that
applicants should have worked 011
The Varsity for three terms prior
to application. I wonder how well
bhe triumvirate fits the sugges-
tion. I wonder how much thought
has been given it by bhe Coun-
cil. Mr. Montagnes. and to a lesser
extent, Mr, Nelson have tliiJ
qualification; they have spent a
great deal of time on The Varsity
and Canadian Press. Could it be
that Mr, Montagnes has oriliciz-
ed bhe SAC a little too much tihis
year and has therefore fallen out
of favor wibh some of its mean*
bers. ^
(3> Lastly, the consideration*
the paper's staff has been, in my
opinion, completely ignored. Aii
editorial board was turned down
by the staff 31-5. Remember the
"editor" must work WITH *
staff, and" as I see it bhe staW
favors Mr. Montagnes. The two
just don't seem to a^ee. Perhaps

SMC Hears St. Laurent
Speak on World Affairs
Prime Minister St. Laurent,
guest speaker at St. Michael's Col-
flege Centennial Arts Banquet, Sun-
1 day evening, proved himself to be
1 both a master-tactician and a
fearless speaker. His remarks
were concerned with two of the
most controversal subjects a Cana-
dian Prime Minister could fmd to
speak about. The first was Cana-
dian Unity (and in particular,
unity between Prench-spealdng
and English-speaking Canadians),
and the secnod was Communism.
On Communism
His remarks on the latter, how-
ever, were very much to the point.
He pointed out that Communism's
strength lies very much in its
"appeal to the natural human
craving for social justice" and in
the fact that Communism "re-
mains a dynamic faith for its
deluded followers." He warned
the West that, while material prep-
aration was essential for main-
taining peace, spiritual prep-
aration was the only kind that
could win the peace. The Canadian
government, he said, had ac-
knowledged this primacy of the
spirit when they showed their wiU-
higness to grant federal aid to
those institutions whose aim was
the intellectual and moral develop-
pfiSifent of our citizens — ^the Canadian
Universities.
Canadian ' Unity
Speaking on Canadian unity, Mr.
St. Laurent pointed to the remark-
able similarity between the fed-
*ratton which is the University of
''oronto, and the Canadian federa-
tion. Unity in both, he maintained,
was based not upon structural
foundation, but upon understand-
ing and co-operation on the part
of individuals. He traced the be-
ginnings of true Canadian unity
back to the Canadian parliament
of 1848, which, though composed
of a majority of English-speaking
Canadians, had repealed the law
which made English our only of-
ficial language.
Other guests at the banquet were
James Cardinal McGuigan, Pre-
iiieTr Leslie Frost. Honourable Paul
Martin. Mayor Alan Lamport. Dr.
Sidney Smith, and the heads of
the four Arts Colleges in the Uni-
versity.

Resignations Accepted
In Stormy Session Of SAC
A special meeting of the Publications Commission, summoned within the twentv
four hour constitutional limit, was called by Commission chairman Douglas Sherk IV
SPS, following the Wednesday, March 5th edition of The Varsity.
Prior to the meeting the distribution of The Varsity to advertisers, subscribers and
exchange universities was stopped. ^^^lucia auu
The special meeting, which took place on March 6th. was attended by Publications
Commission members. Bud Trivett. II Law, S. L. Wax, IV Meds. D Sherk IV SPS Rarh
^^^^'l^; I" y-^ - ^'^"""^ Strangways, IV U.C., Carolyn Gratton, IV St. Michael's Miss
A. E. M. Parkes, and Mr. E. A. MacDonaid. ^litnaei ^, iviiss
(A letter was received from David R. K. Rose, President of the University Colleire
Literary and Athletic Society. However, after hearing a written request for retraction
read at the S.A.C. meeting on Wednesday, the Council voted to delete Mr Roses letter
from the minutes.)
A second letter was received from
four students in Engineering;
Geoi^e Hayman III. SAC Rep,,
Louis DeGroot Varsity Rep. of the
Engineering Society. Doug Sherk,
Pres., Engineering Society, and
James Allan. 1st V.P. Eng. Soc.
outlining their strong disapproval of
the issue of March 5.
Readers are reminded that the
complete text of minutes of all SAC
and committee meetings may be in
spected at any tiVne at the Council
Office, Hart House.
Mr. Porestell, speaking for
Michael's men students, stated that
they objected to The Varsity of the
fifth, their reasons in general being
the same as those outlined in the
previous two letters, and that an
emergency meeting had been call
ed of the S.A.C. at St. Michael's
College, and that a letter would be
forthcoming from that meeting.
Law Club
Mr. Trivett said that the Law
Club executive had expressed simi-
lar opinions to those contained in
the letters. Mr. Wax said that the
issue of Wednesday, the 5tli of
March, was a complete breach of
contract between The Varsity and
the Council, and he quoted from
appendix C of the Constitution of
the Students' Administrative
Council:
"That the news and other read-
ing matter in The Varsity is read
by a great many people outside the
University. It is closely scrutinized
by all our city daiUes and as a re-
sult of exchanges it reaches readers
in practically all of the important
Universities in the United States
and Canada. Thus, both directly
and indirectly, some at least of these
articles are read by people all over
this continent. Tlie Editor should
bear this in mind and, when pre-
paring the headlines, news articles
and editorials, he should take into
consideration their effect on the
outside reader, so that the reputa-
tion of the University may not
.suffer." (Bottom page 30. top page
Ql.)
He further stated that Wednes-
day's Varsity was one big editorial
which ridiculed the President of
the University and others.
Again the Constitution points out:
Statement
By Coput
rte Caput of the University of
Toronto at a meeting held on
Saturday morning, March 15th,
placed on record its satisfaction
at the evidences of sound stu-
dent self-government found in
the action taken by the Stu-
dents' Admhiistrative Council In
dealing with the general dis-
satisfaction with Hie humorous
Issue of The Varsity of March
5th. The Caput invited the
President of the ttniversity to
see the editors of that issue and
to convey to them the unanimous
opinion of that body that much
of the material used was in
shockingly bad taste. The co-
operation of the editors was to
be sought in devising ways and
means of preventing a recur-
rence.
The Caput to<^ no action'
which would in any way jeopar-
dize the academic status of any
of the students involved.

Mlnlser are Cardinal McGalran, Very Rev. Louis J. Bondy, superior

minlatratiT« Council.
"That all vulgar, offensive or sug-
gestive expressions should be care-
fully avoided.
"That anyone connected with the
staff of The Varsity should take
particular pains to make certain
chat all statememts of facts are ac-
curate, and that all reports of in-
terviews give an accurate account
of every statement attributed to
the speakers." (Page 31, >
"By twisting quotations the Pi-esl-
dent of the University had been put
in an unfortunate position as the
leader of the community." said Wax.
He felt there was no need t" carry
personal attitudes and criticisms hi
news stories, and In his opinion the
Editor has lost the confidence of
the Students' Administrative
CouncU. When The Varsity puts out
special theme issuec, the Publica-
tions Commission is usually inform-
ed of them.
Mr. Sherk said there was no de-
sire on the part of the Commission
to muzzle or censor the press but
that there is a feeling of a lack of
responsibility.
Miss Browne's
Statement
Miss Browne made the followhig
statement to the Publications Cont-
misslon:
"The whole issue was undertakeo
in a spirit of good fun — the same
sort of feeling which prompted tho
Manltoban issue and later, the
"Men's Page". Now. a sense of hum-
our varle.s from Individual to in-
dividual and there is no infalUblo
way of predicting the public re-
.spon.se. But, of course, any hum-
orist will have more than a general
Idea of wliat is funny and what is
not. Judging by the general student
reaction— as far as we could as-
certain it— The Varsity humour is-
.sue was considered funny. We think
that if there were any accurate way
of determining student opinion, it
would be in favour of such an ia-
sue."
With regard to this issue Mls«
Browne stated that the chief ele-
ment to the success of the issue of
March 5th was surprise, and hence
it was not brought to the attention
of the Commission. Mi.ss Strang-
ways pointed out to the Commission
that a healthy symptom in any
community is to sit back occasionally
and take a good laugh at it.selt and
that this was the Intention of tha
paper.
The following motion was passed:
Trivett-Wax: That the pUblic*-

CXTE&NAL AFFAIRS
In dtocuMAnr the proffOMd con-
stitution of the EiKtemal Affairs
Committee, objection was taken to
the provision giving a vote to Fac-
ulty meml>ers and to representa-
tives of certain organizations such
fts the Newman Cluto, Hillel, the
Students' Christian Movement, etc..
which are not confined to under-
graduates.
Paul Forestell pointed out that
euch giroups could not toe 'held re-
sponsible to the Council. Charles
Hanly of University ' College said
that on the other hand these or-
gai T.s .Hid jnl^rc.M^ed faculty
members have been of the greatest
assistance to the Committee in all
«f its activities this year, and are
prepared to accept further respon-
sibility. Thej' should tlierefore be
given voting representation on the
permanent Committee, wliich is es-
aentiaJly a working committee.
For financial reasons the wisdom
of providing In the Constitution for
the appointment of four delegates
to the annual li.V'.C.VS. Conference
n-as questioned and the matter was
left for further consideration.
The vote on the proposed Consti-
tution wUI be taken at the final
meeting of the Coimctl.

' E.A.C. FOREIGN RELATIONS
I The External Affairs CcHnmittee
I presented various amendments to
' the propped Constitution which
I i..ere tabled at the previous meet-
' ing. T^is Constitution provides that
the E.A.C. now toecome a regularly
constituted committee of the S-A.C.
i The fomction of this committee
would be to maintain and promote
[relations between the students ol
the University of Toronto and stu-
dents of other universities, both in
Canada and throughout the world;
and to promote contact between
foreign and Canadian students on
this campus. The committee will be
the local Advisory committee of
NFjC.UJS. and wm represent World
University Service ^previously
l^JS.). It will report directly to
the S.A.O.
It Is pr*poMd that Uic committee
will draw its membership Irom rep-
resentatives of the various student
govamments on the campus, along
with representation from campus
organizations which participate In
national and international affairs.
Volunteers may work on the sub-
committees and be appohited from
them to the general commitee. To
insure continuity it is also recom-
mended that four members toe car-
ried over from the previous year.

the tirst item or business was the
report of the Publications Commis-
Bion. This repcrt was accepted by

following the meeting of the Publi-

The Varsity had tendered her resig-

Mr. Sherk pointed out that at no
tune was there any suggestion that
tlie naming of Council -members
had affected the Publications Com-
mission decision to postpone puWi-
cations.
Mr. Peter Alley, representing
TYinity, I'ead a statement from his
College. The following are quota-
tions frcrni the statement:
This is not a defence of The
Varsaty for its activities daring
the year, nor its latest issue. We
have had what could be called
a bad Varsity this year. It has
criticized many things we feel
should have been criticized and
It has criticized many things
we fe^ should not have been
criticized; but what is important
Is that it lias almost never criti-
cized soundly or fairly, that is,
by setting out the arguments of
the case and then picking its
side.
It has tended almost consis-
tently to sensationalism, as
though it were being run as a
training ground for downtown
journals and not as a campus
news service. However, we feel
that what is important in the
present case is not vengeance
for past offence, but justice. If
it comes to a matter of offences,
th^ S.A.C. has d<me pretty
badly this year too. Let us not
add another one.
If The Varsity has committed
no Clime, which we feel Is the
case, then it may have com-
mitted an error in taste. The
penalty of such an error is rep-
rimand, and its correction is
advice. The essence of taste is
that it cannot be legislated on
but only pointed to, therefore
there can be no punishment.
Where responsibility is given
taste is demanded. If those
given responsibility show
through failure to talie account
of reprimand and advice that
they have no taste, they may
be relieved of their responsi-
bility. But, in fairness they
must have been reprimanded
and advised at least once on
the subject before they are re*
lieved of responsibility. Tb«
Varsity* has not been so warn-
ed. It is reprimand and advfc^
and this only, that tlie PabU-
catlom Commission shooid
have enacted.
A motion then followed (Alley.
Hanly) "that the action of the
Publications Commission in sus-
pending The Varsity be revoked
this revocation to be taken as ^
vote of censure on Uiis action; and
I that Th« Varsity staff be aslted to
produce a final issue on-FHday."
( Motion was subsequently defeat-
ed.)
Mr. Sherk again emphasized that
the Publications Commission did
not suspend the staff. He said that
it disapproved of tlie material in
the paper, and felt that most stu-
dents would agree, Sherk flu-ther
stated that Trinity's ohjedtion that
the suspension was huiTied is not
valid. "If you suspend you have
to suspend in a hurry, particularly
if there is to be oniy one more la-
sue," commented Sherk. He pointed
out that there had been no expres-
sion of regi-et or admi.ssion of eiror
by the Editor at the Publications
Commission meeting.
Graeme Pcirguson, Vic R^., ami
Valinda Burruss, St. Hilda's, moved
and seconded "That the clause in.
volving censme of the Publication!
Commission be deleted." (Amend-
ment was subsequently carried.)
Miss Broiwne said that the day
previous to the Pul hcatlons Com-
mlssim meeting she had suggest-
ed ttiat a word of explanation of
Uie intention of the issue be print-
ed in Friday's Varsity. However, by
the day of the Commission's meet-
ing things had moved very quickly,
and this explanation did not setm
to be acceptable, according to Mlu
Browne.
Mr. Trivett said that whatever
Miss Browne tniglit have said pri-
vately, there was no suggestion in
the Publications Commission meet-
ing of any offer to apologize or ol
an admission of error.

Questioned
Mr. Hanly read a statement,
relative to the power of the Publi-
cations Commission, from the U.C.
Lit. The statement contained
reference to the constitution, Ap-
pendix B, Pararr^hs 2, 4 and 6,
concluding that:
"The Publications Commission
of the S.A.C. is not »npow«red
to suspend publication of The
Varsity and therefore such sns*
pension was unconstitntional
and void."
The statement further recommend
ed that:
"The S.A.C. Representative of
University College Literary and
Athletic Siociety demand that
the SA.C. rule that the action
of the Publications ComUiissioD
in snspending publication of
The Varsity was miconstitu-
tional, and therefore null
void, and that it censure t^
Publications Commission f*"*
this action."
Ml-, Sherk stated that the
cations Commission felt that on'^
the CouncU could make a decision
in the matter, and he asked
support of the Commission's
tion.
Mr. Trivett pointed out that Mr.
Hanly had not quoted all sections
of the Constitution which aftec^
the situation. "Appendix C. Section
3, states clearly that the Editor »
all times has the right to bring be-

"Varsity" Story
<Ooot4n\ied from Pa^e 2)
fwe the council any matter re-
garding his duties as Editor of The
Varsfy. whole point of this
section is to provide for an appeal
toy the Editor to the Council on any
action taken by the Publications
Cammission," Trivett pointed out.
Be further stated that In forfcy-
eix pages the Constitution of the
Council and its cooanittees is set
out, and that it was never intended
to be a fiill outline of the exact
function and method of procediu"e
lor every contingency which might
arise. Said Trivett : "Decisions
<rften have to be made which are
not covered by the exact provisions
of the Constitution."
Trinity Statement
Mr. Alley spoke against tJie
amendment. He said that It does
iM>t matter now whether the action
was unconstitutional. "The Publica-
tions Commission has to take action
as it sees fit; if t-he action is wrong
the Council revokes it. The Com-
mdssion has to act on the sipot, and
revocation does not alter the orig-
inal action." AUey thoug-ht that the
Commission was right to take ac-
tion, and to perceive that action
was neoeesary, but he felt Uiat it
Wftfi the WToi^ action. For this rea-
son he opposed the motion that
"censure be deleted".
Mr. Wax, TV Mods, and Council
President, pointed out ttiat the
Publications Commission does have
,tl»e right to fix date ol publication
of The Varslly, staUng that it is a
matter of practice whioh has nerver
been questioned before. He said that
it was not the desire of the Com-
missiOTi to muzde *I*e Varsity but
to give the council the privilege of
deciding the action, il any, to be
taken.
Forestry Stand
Don Bell, Forestry Rep, stated
that such oould be said about con-
stitutional actions, adding that Uie
Constitution is not too clear and
that the Coomcil could get into in-
volved discussion, "nie Council
voiced its confidence In the Publi-
cations Commission when it was
elected, and it ^ould be commend-
ed for ite action." said Bell. -The
fact that the humour issue came
out as the second last issue of tiie
year meant ttiat if the Publications
Oomjiiission had not acted the final
iasfue would have been out before the
Council had a chance to discuss it."
Bell therefore went on record as
commending the action of the Pub-
lications Commission.
George Hayman, IV Engineering,
read the following motions passed
by the Engineering Society:
"That the Engineering So-
ciety is in accord with the let-
ter to the Publications Conunis-
sion sent by its President.

Too Good An Idea
Miss Browne said that the ques-
tion ,wafi a suspension of the issue
entirely and not a question of dat«s.
She had recognized the possible un-
wisdom of putting out the issue
after last week's trouble about the
editorial board, but she said that it
was too good an idea to give up.
However, .she didn't thlrA they were
attacking anything; they were jnst
having fim. By suspending the is-
sue she thought that the Commis-
sion gave this matter undue pub-
licity. The Globe and Mail plclied
up the story and the Star describ-
ed-the paper as a "Theme issue on
Sex."
She thoug-ht it unwise for mem-
bers of the Cmmcil to maiie com-
ments to the papers since the
minutes were confidential. She
thought this is very hanmXul pub-
licity for the outside world-. The
Varsity only gave outside publicity
when tliey saw the story in the
Star.
Anne Jane Carter. IV Meds, read
the following letter from tthe
Medical Society to the Publications
Commission :
"The . Medical Society, in a
special meeting to-day, voted
unanimously in favor of send-
ing resolution to the Publica-
tions Committee:
"That The Varsity in its
March 5 issue flagrantly violat-
ed ite contract with the Stu-
dents' Administrative Council in
that it (a) brought personali-
ties into the lines of its edi-
torials, (b) usertT an excessive
amount of salacious vulgar,
offensive and suggestive ex-
pressions and that my quoting-
out of context It has placed
pronUnent Universiiy personali-
ties in a false, awkward and
embarrassing position."
Mr. Trivett regretted the sug-
gestion of Ti-inity of the attitude
felt towards The Varsfty in its news
over the year. "This matter has no
relation to the work over the year,"
he stated. "They have, at times,
reported badiy and erred in judg-
ment bait they have tried to do
something all year and we ^lould
not in any way consider this ques-
tion as a general censure or com-
mendation of the year's activities.
The cfuestion before us in the re-
gard to a gai'ticular issue of The
Varsity and certain items in it."
"The Varsity is sent out widely
all over the country," Trivett .add-
ed. "T^ie Publications Comaniision
did not call the Press. Someone
gave the names of the Commission
to tdie Frees and they were asked
for comment. The stories in the
downtown papers were not in any
way aoourate."
"Kie Law Clufe passed the fol-
lowing motion, presented by Tri-
vett:
"That this body commends
the Publications Commission of
the S^.C. for its action in
suspending The Varsity for its
alleged breach of contract.
However, this body reaffirms
its cunviction that The Varsity
should have the widest mnge of
independence within the ft-ame-
work of its contract,"
Trivett further said that the Law
Olub recomanended that tiie resig-
nation of the Editor should be ac-
cepted.
Graeme Ferguson, IV vic, re-
ported that the Victoria College
Union recommended that the
Council, while not approving the
issue, should lift the suspension
of The Varsity and aek the staff
to publish the last issue. He
pointed out that many students
thought it was humorous, that it
did overstep the bounds in some
cases, but that in general it was
good and that Vic feels the people I T^ Ua^m
who felt slighted are over-sensitive. LaWlflCll l O rlcal
O.CE, Comment
Stephen Gibson, O.CE. Rep.,
said the O.CE. Executive had
met. and is in support of the Pub-
lications Commission's action in
suspending The Varsity. O.CE.
felt that the issue was not par-
ticularly humorous, and that it
was based on a philosophy of de-
spair and cynicism . They w wi-
dered if The Varsity was trying to
discover how far it could go, "We
are concerned with the possible
consequences of this issue and its
effecrt oa the University." said
Gibson. "It was not in keeping
wlUi the responsibility the staff
should exercise, and cannot help
but do harm. It certainly cannot
be justified as a humorous issue."
Paul Forestell. IV St. Michael's,
said that the St. Michael's S.A.C.
commends the action of the Pub-
lications Commission and feels we
should accept the resignation of
the Editors. He voiced the opin-
ion that the issue was objection-
able because of the personalities
involved, as exampled by the
treatment of the President's Re-
port regarding Remedial English.
Forestell further deplored the
emphasis on obscenity which the
issue contained.
Linda Burruss. reported that
Hilda's College had passed the
followiAg motion: "That this
House recommends that the
Council revoke the su^enslon
of The Varsity and have the
last issue published, hot tiiat
tiie suspension ol The Varsity by
the PnbUcations CommisBion bf
taken as a vote of censore of
the issue of March 5th."
Charles Hanly read a statement
from the U.C. Lit that
"any remarks (in the issue of
March 5th) rererring to par-
ticular persons or institutions
are either obviously facetious,
e.g. the references to the Eng-
glish Department of U.C. are
of a type of "humorous" criti-
cism which individuals in posi-
tions of respotasibility and
authority must and should ex-
pect, (e.g. the "Moscow Visit"
story) and therefore the Var-
sity has not violated either the
provisions quoted from the con-
stitution of the S.A.C., or good
taste, in these respects and
that the charge of publishing
articles dealing in an unsuit-
able manner with sex is gross-
ly exaggerated; while certain
articles in The Varsity do not
completely avoid the use of
"suggestive" expressions, and
are in questionable taste, they
are not sufficiently at fault to
warrant definite action against
nie Varsity as a whole, or
against any members of its
staff. {This does not mean,
however, that an expression of
disapproval would not be Justi-
ned.)
Therefore, this commitiee (of
the U.C. Lit.) recommends that
the S.A.C. representative of
the U.C. Literary and Athletic
Society demand that the S.A.C.
initiate no action against The
Varsity, or against any member
or member of Its staff."

Commission
Commended
The following motion was made
by Bud Trivett, seconded by Steve
Gibson: "That the Council com-
mend the Publications Commission
for its action In suspending publi-
cation of The Varsity; that the
resignation of the Editor be ac-
cepted; that the Council take no
further action against the Editor."
The motion carried 15-6, with Doug
Sherk and George Hayman, Skule
Reps., abstaining on the ground
that the Editor should be dismiss-
ed.
Paul Forestell then moved,
ended by Syd Wax, that a number
of The Varsity be put out and ttiat
the Publications Commission be
empowered to make arrangement!
for this. Doug Sherk supported th«
motion but stated that the new
editorial board should not be a^ed
to take responsibility for the final
issue, and that the council, ttooaigb
the Publications Commission,
should do ttiis.
peter Alley and Bud Trivett then
moved that the newspapers be giv-
en a statement of the motions as
passed. This motion was also pass-
ed.
A further motion was made
Steve Gibson and Paul Forestell
"that an official statement be plac-
ed in The Varsity by the Council,
by way of explanation and com-
ment on their action in supporting
the motion otf suspension of publi-
cation, and in accepting the resig-
nation of the Editor, and that the
Publications Commission draw up
this information."
The Publications Commission
teels that it should be pointed out
that the Council and Publications
Commission action was taken with-
out regard to any Caput decision
to meet on the matter. Absolutely
no direction in this matter came
"rom the President of the Univer-
-ity to the Students' Administrative

Debating Highlight
THE VARSITY
Page Five
The popularity of debating ap-
peared to be on the increase during
the past year. This may have been
partly due to the fact that the SAC
allocated a much larger amount of
money for this activity than had
been the practice in previous years.
iWth a thousand dollars in his
wallet Charles Hanly was able to
send three debating teams on tour.
Bob Shepherd and Ann McGinn
went to the Chicago area, Dwight
p^ilford and John Morden visited
universities in the Boston area, and
John Medcof and Jim Gerome tour-
ed central Cnadian univer-sities.
All of our enii.^-SKries brought hon-
or to this university by achieving
remariiable sucr-ess in the compe-
titions.
It is worth noting that debating
in American universities contrasts
with that in Canadian. We prefer
the open parliamentary style where
everyone may get a word in, to the
more wooden and formal judged
debate which the Americans lavor.
An example of the former which
provided the highlight of the year
on thLs campus was the Brading
Trophy competition.
A team representative of Scot-
tish univer.^ities met the Toronto
team of Neville Taylor and John
Barton and defeated them amid
the stimulatins atmosphere of
Strachan Hall which was filled to
capacity for the occasion. The
Brading Trophy Itself was not yet
ready for pre?entation, but a litho-
graphed reproduction of it was on
hand.
Some Triiiity College pranksters
were denied Uu- delight of their
practical joke when it was discov-
ered before the debate that behind
the curtains which shrouded the
lithograph, a side of a Labatt's
case had been tacked to the picture.
Hart House Debates
Hart House again had a full pro-
gram of four debates. The late
Profes.'ior Van Wyck of Medicine
was the first of the honorary vist
itors. Hi.s optimism regarding the
future progres.s of man. and his
confidence that the university was
fulfilling its role in society, were
very refreshing in the=e days of
cynicism and fear.
The Honorable Waller Harris,
Minister of Immigration, followed
the practice of several o£ his Cab-
inet colleagues by accepting an in-
vitation from Hart House to debate.
Unfortunately, it turned out that
Canada's immigration policy was
not sufficiently contentious to pro-
vide a couple of hours of intevest-
"ng forensics.
T'"-. T-^C Mick P . where
the to i^ue-in- cheek type of topic Is
cessful year under the able direc-
tion of Albert Strau.ss. Though its
sessions lack the dignity and finish
of a Hart House debate, UC has
contributed many able speakers to
the former, and the radicalism
wiiich keynotes the Mock Parlia-
ment's proceedings is a healthy
tendency on the campus.
Campus Debating
Campus debating too frequently
suffers from a lack of thought in
preparating of speeches. Since the
topics are usually advertised well
in advance, one would expect that
undergraduates would look up some
material in order to fortify their
arguments. Unfortunately the ar-
guments generally are very indi-
gestible from a logical standpoint.
However in the final analysis de-
bating is one of the most reward-
ing of extra-curricular activities
for the individual. Public speaking
ability is a valuable asset and con-
tinual practice is tiie sole means of
attaining facility in it. This cam-
pus provides an abundance of for-
ums for the development of an ap-
titude in public speaking.
Elmer Sopha
Library
Extension
For Fall
Construction of the "new" Uni-
versity library will probably begin
sometime this year. The plans
are being drawn by the University
architect at the present time. Ear-
ring any unforeseen circumstances
the money which has been ap-
propriated will be available for im-
mediate spending.
A memorandum of the Library
Committee of the University Sen-
ate indicated the present require-
ments of the library pointed to-
wards a new building immediately
to the north of the present build-
ing. Renovation of the present
building by way of an addition
was not considered feasible be-
cause of the length of time the
operation would take.
The need for a new library is
great when it is realized that the
-present building, intended to house
3feo.0O0 volumes, at present is
housing over half a million books.
Many unpacked volumes in stor-
age will have to await the opening
of the new building.
Since a part of the recent Fed-
eral Aid to Universities Grant at
the University of Toronto is being
allocated to the purchase of books
—this is in addition to its normal
allocation— the space problem is
becoming a nightmare to the
Chief Librarian. W. S. Wallace and
his hard-working assistants.
Mr. Wallace explains that the
new building will house the Hu-
manities and Social Sciences
while the present building will re-
tain the Natural Sciences and
Law. However, Dean C. A. Wright
of the Law Faculty has expressed
a desire for the Law Library to be
housed in the Law Building when
space requirement permit. Many
of the Physical Science libraries
are already contained! In their re-
spective buildings.
Although the plans are not yet
available it is contemplated that
the t7/o buildings will be joined by
a common catalogue room to avoid
dupUcation. A new "time-saving"
system for the use of undergradu-
ates of reserved shelf books, giv-
ing them more freedom in the use
of. the stacks in contemplated.

Numerous requests from Gennan
and Italian students for opportuni-
ties to spend a year in a Canadian
university have been received. The
ISS (WUS) announces that it has
these on file.
The letters offer to supply room
and board, and tuition fes, at a
European University in exchange
for the same arrangements pro-
vided in Canada by a Canadian stu-
dent.
This provides an unparalleled
opportunity for Canadian students
to come into close contact with
both the ordinary life and the in-
tellectual atmosphere of cont-em-
porary Europe. There are no ac-
ademic requirements except such
as may be necessary to register as
a student, since this type of ex-
change is a private arrangement,
not a matter of competition.
There is no stipulation that you
must iuiow the language, indeed it
provides an opportunity to do just
that. Further information is avail-

THE VARSITY
They Say "Varsity " Dead
But Trinity "Saints Alive"
Tuesday will be the gala opening night of the Trinity
College Production of an original musical comedy, '^Saints
, Ahve". Written by world-renowned team of MacMiilan and
_ Bryden, also authors of "Wot, No Crum:pets the show wa»
first produced in 1949 where it wrung praises from the
reviewers.
Keith MacMiilan, who has writ-
ten the music for the nineteen or-
iginal songs, is a graduate of Trin-
ity from the year "49 and now an
associate of the Department of
Botany. Happily married with two
small children, both of whom arc
studying the art of counterpoint.
MacMiilan is the son of the T.S.O.'s
Sir Ernest.
Ron Bryden who wrote the book
and the liberetto. graduated from
Trinity in '50 and is making inten-
sive research into the musical
comedy possibilities of Browning,
at King's College. Cambridge.
The producers have been fortun-
ate enough to retain the services
of all but one of the principals who
starred so brightly in the original
production. Harold MacDonald, a
deacon in the Church of England
and head of College at Trinity, plays
the part of Mortimer Shortbread,
eager, bumbling Editor of Quin-
quagesima'ji other magazine, the
"Riot".
Don Belway, also a senior div-
ine, plays the part of Daphnis
Montmorency, the exquisity erudite
editor of Quinquage.sima "Review",
Bob Walmsley plays Treebear,
Shortbread's silent shadow. Among
the ladies. Donna Haley, has re-
turned from Osgoode Hall to play
^ the part of Chloe McFiggen, the
J rootiJig tooting gal from Northern
* Ontario. Di Jacob. Shiela MacKen-
zie and Dosse Phillips have all re-
turned Irccn civilian life to play
their original roles. Certain mem-
bers of the chorus have also been
■unearthed from the 1949 produc-
tion.
The musical back^ound will be
provided by the two-piano team of
John Sedgwick and John Lawson.
Sedgewick, who has also directed
singing, is organist and choirmas-
ter at one of Toronto's largest
downtown churches. The business
end of the production is being sup-
ervised by Trinity Convocation.
The sets depict the garden of
that genteel college for respectable
and cloistered yoimg ladies, Saint
Gilda's. They are readily indenti-
fied with a certain neo-Georgian
building on Devonshire place. Rol-

SAC Hears Request
For Humanity Group
More action by the students on
the humanities question may be
seen on the campus next year. At
the last SAC meeting Steve Gibson,
OOE rep., recommended that Coun-
cil appoint a Humanities committee.
He asked why at this time when the
humanities have become such a
live issue student opinion and inter^:'
est should not be expressed In a
more organized and concrete
fashion than is the case.
He referred to the statements by
the President and Chancellor to the
effect that a University's standards
Lacking Funds
Engineers Ask
Fees Increase
A proposed fee increase of four
dollars was passed by the Engineer-
ing Society at a General Meeting
of the Engineering Society on
Tuesday. March 4th.
A fee increase of $3.00 was pro-
posed by t*ie Society Executive
Committee after they reviewed the
year's activities and decided that
most Skule functions have suffered
from serious lack of funds. Doug
Sherk, the president of the Engin-
eering Society said he thought one
reason there had been a poorer
turnout than usual at Skule func-
tions was that there had not been
sufficient funds to make these func-
tions as attractive to studenU as
in former years.
Second Vice-President Jack Coop-
er said that considering rapid ris-
ing costs a small increase in gen-
eral Engineering Society fees
would ensure lower prices hi the
Engineering Society Stores next
year rather than higher ones. The
saving to each student would prob-
ably be almost as great as the in-
crease in fees.
Approval of the students for an
increase of one dollar in the Ath-
letic Association fee was asked by
Bob Beattie, A.A. president.
The combined Encrineering Soci-
ety and Athletic Associatitwi fee in-
crease was approved by a large
majority of the membei's present
at the General Meeting. This was
the first general meeting this year
at which a quorum was present.

Poge Hint
Symphony
Orchestra
Co-ordinating Committee
The concert given by the Uni-
wersily of Toronto Symphony Or-
fchestra and Chorus on Sun.,
iMar. 16, was vei-y creditable.
However, only a handful of peo-
ple attended, perhaps because of
jjoor publicity.
The performance of Purcell's
"Ballet Suite from Comus" was
one bf extreme clarity. On the
whole the intonation wa^ good,
a£ was the blend.
Jim Guthro's "Symphonic Move-
ment" was a sharp contrast to the
purcell. This work displays the
composer's clever use 'of orches-
tral colour. Rather odd string
writing plus poor intonation in the
lower strings unfortunately spoiled
fiome pai-ts of the work.
The "Roumanian Polk Dances"
by Bartok were quite accurately
played, displaying effective wood-
wind passages. The tempos could
possibly ha^^e been slightly mod-
erated.
The major work on the pro-
gram was the Paure "Requiem".
This is one of the most beautiful
works of its kind, and Mr. Glrard
and the University of Toronto
Chorus is to be commended on
attempting such a composition
with a limited number of voices.
A larger group is^ necessary and
more female voices would have
given more life to the chorus.
Several times the chorus was
drowned out. but for the most part
the organ and orchestra kept well
under the voices. Margo Mac-
(f^vinnon and T. L. Roy did an ex-
[Tftellent job as soloists,
i It is regrettable that organiza-
tions with the fine reputations"" of
the U. of T. Symphony and
Chorus are not more actively sup-
ported by the students. Are there
not more musicians in the Uni-
versity to fill out the almost piti-
fully small orchestra? And there
must be more than thirty students
out of the eleven attending the
University who can sing well
enough to keep the prestige al-
ready claimed by the chorus.
There is no reason why two hun-
di'ed voices could not have sung
the "Requiem" performed on Sun-
day—and the concert certainly
■would have sounded much better.
BiU Bartlett.
At a meeting of the Co-ordinat-
ing committee called by chairman
C. M. Hanly. U.C., it was decided
that a program of university- wide
freshman orientation be recom-
mended to the S.A.C.; organiza-
tion, entertainment and financial
responsibility of these programs
to be shared proportionally by the
participating groups and the S.A.C.
H was pointed out that this
year's parties were mainly social
activities and that although smaller
faculties benefit greatly from
them, something of a more cul-
tural nature would be advisable
if the committee is to carry out
its function of cutting down extra-
curricular activities. Could the
S.A.C. provide a program that
would be meaningful lor 11,000
students from all parts of the
campus?
A plan of freshman tours of the
university starting the second week
of school was the solution brought
forward by Bud Trivett (n Lawi.
These groups, consisting of not
more than 20 freshmen, are to be
recruited from all colleges and
faculties, and the colleges would
supply leaders for the expeditions
and take charge of refreshments
afterwards when the freshmen re-
turn to 'talk it over'.
The suggestion followed that
these plans be continued during
the year by a series of reciprocal
invitations for social, cultural and
intellectual activities via the
S.A.C. representatives from each
college and faculty concerned. A
further motion recommended that
Freshman Orientation commit-
tee be set up, chaired by the S.A.C.
chairman of the Co-ordinating com-
mittee and COTisisting of one rep-
resentative from each of the col-
leges and faculties on the campus. ,
The first meeting of this commit-
tee would be early in April.
Before adjournment of this meet-
in«, Hanly pointed out the fal-
lacy in the present Co-ordinating
Committee; that it had been set
up as a co-ordinator, not as a
board of arbitration . • ■All-uni-
versity activities often conflict
with college activities." said
Hanly, "and any co-ordinating is
meaningless unless the commit^
tee is made up of people who are
interested and who have the au-
thority to commit their individual
colleges."

tile second consecutive year that

current editor, Walt Mackenzie, ia
a fOTmer Varsity sta-ffman ^ath no

The basic reason for this, in Mac*
ken2ne's opinion, is the present
method by which faculty rep-i are
cliosen for Torontonensis. PracticaJ-
ly without exception, Uiese reps are
selected from tjie graduating class
witiiout thought of their interest in
producing a good yearbook, with the
result that very few of Phein con-
tribute anything towai-ds the edi-
torial work in making up the Ixiofc
Those who do show a genuine In-
terest have little experience and jd

well, but then they graduate aaud
tftiis experience is lost for fubure
editions.
If the reps were chosen from ttj»
junior years and had either interest
Or post experience in yearbook pub-
lication, there would be a laiye in-
terested staff from whicli to pict
editorial assistants, a trained stalf
to carry on into the future years,
a rich pool of future editors and a
general increase in interest in all
years of the student body.
In addition to tiie editor, a sale*
and publicity manager is needed
now. A far more successful salea
campaign could be carried out if It
was initiated in Octo^- rather
tiian in December and JaniuLry. Aa

the Blues this fall, pickes up a few yards to add
to hU total against the McGlU R«dmen in the
lasi league grame of the season la Varsity Stadium.
The Blues won the game and dashed all MoGlll
hopes ' of forcing; a playoff against the leag^ue-
leading Bloes.
THE DIFFERENCE
Season Mfiffhligfht
A picture of Steve Oneschuk fending off tackles is probably the surest way to brin^
back memories of a bright year in Sports for the University of Toronto, at least as far as
the spectator element at Varsity is concerned. The capture of the Yates Cup this fall by the
Blues was undoubtedly the brightest spot in the year's activities.
The thrilling defeat of the Mustangs at Varsity Stadium and the upset of the McGIll
Redmen who journeyed to dear old Hogtown confident that they would be able to force a
playoff, made for a football season that will long be remembered in these part.s.
But the football team was not the only one to bringr
home the bacon, in fact, it was only one of sixteen separate
Blue aggregations that earned an Intercollegiate title this
season. Practically every Intennediate title in the book will
rest on Varsity s'houlders until the battle starts again next
year.
Whether or not a big championship early in the yeaij,
boosts hopes a little too high or not is hard to say. but many
of us looked with greedy eyes towards the basketball title
as well, and must admit to a little disappointment that the
hoopsters fell somewhat short of their mark.
Winning ten games out of twenty-three, the basketball
Blues knocked over sorne tough opponents on a long schedule,
but couldn't beat the Mustang jinx that the Blue team on
the football field had found the solution for last fall. Tha
highest score that the hoopsters racked up all year in their
favour was a 71-54 decision against the Redmen in IVIontreal,
in a schedHled league fixture, while their 0M»nents across
the border, Rochester U. and Detroit Tech., humbled tha
Blues 90-45 and 90-59 respectively earlier in the seasor
Ray Monnot and Lu Lukenda proved to be the chief
threats that the Blues had to offer through the year, al-
though they would Trave had a little competition for top
honors had Bud Natanson not been forced to give up the
game early in the season. Lukenda .sank 86 field goals and
63 foul shots in the 23 games for a total of 235 points and
an average of 10.2 per game. He was also the bad man o{
the crew with 75 fouls against him.
On the whole, the Redmen were the second in line aa
far as the number of titles won are concerned. They won six
championships, with Senior Track and Squash being the moi4i
important of the lot. University of Western Onttuio 0M[
boast of the basketball title once again and the Senior
Wrestling crown to boot. Queen's also has two, with th«
skiing and boxing titles to its name. McMaster wtth saiHii|

REED TROPHY
Boxing
Round Up
This year's boxing season, though
It did not culminate with Var.sity
ttinning the intercollegate cham-
pionship, was a fairly successful
season by ' most standards. The
turnout for the novice interfaculty
tournament was good, and som* eX'
?ellent prospects were discovered
the boxing coach, Tony Can-
lo. The biggest find of the year
IS 135 pounder Russ Reilly from
t. Mike s.
The Intercollefflate team acquir-
ed some valuable experience in the
exhibition bouts against the West
Point team. Though the cadets won
every bout, the Varrity boxers gain-
ed enough boxing know-how to jus-
tify the trip and make it de.'iirable
to repeat the West Point engage-
ment next year.
Bad luck and untimely injuries
did not help the Blues' cause. Norm
Green, the seasoned 165 pound vet-
eran, and Roy Stevenson, a hot
frosh prospect in the heavyweight
class, Ijoth potential Intercollegiate
champions, were prevented from
competing, by injuries.
Unfortunately, many ot the ex-
perienced fighters ai*e in their
graduating year, but good men like
Pete Petcoff. Howie Greenly, Russ
Reilly. Taimo Pallandi and Larry
Wade, will be back next year to
bolster the team, Veterans Nick
Betz. Roberto Couceiro and Norm
Green wil be sorely missed by
coach Canzano.
With only the points for the '
Senior Intramural basketball fin-
als remaining to be tabulated, the
Athletic office has announced the
final standings in the Reed Trophy
race. University College is in top
spot with 11,246 points and Trinity
in undisputed possession of the sec-
ond spot *ith 10,477.
While Meds now occupy the third
slot, St. Mike's could take over from
them by copping 300 points that
they would get on winning the Sen-
ior Intramural basketball crown.
The Mikemen are already assured
of the Minor League crown as two
teams from that college are in tJie
finals.
The winners. University College,
only picked up three titles during
the year, soccer, track and wrestl-
ing, but managed to get most of
their points from teams participat-
ini? and from getting into the play-
off positions in a number of leagues.
Trinity, on the other hand, hasn't
got a single title to boast of and
yet managed to cop a second place.
The race for second and third
spots was one of the closest in
years, and will not be definitely de-
cided until the final whistle for the

SPS and Meds will have eight
nd seven trophies respectively to

ear. Probably the most interest-
ng feature of the Reed Trophy race
his year is how the point system
makes so little depend on who gets
he championship in any particu-
'ar league and attempts to en-
ourage participation to the ut-
"loet.
The Intramural Athletic Associa-
"on has been working for a couple
I years on a revision of the con-
titutional that may go into effect
lext year and would see the facul-
ties in Uie lower groups separated
from those in the larger colleges
ompletely. The Association feels
hat the smaller faculties should
not be expected to compete against
the larger csies for the league
championship in each sport, and
that the present system penalizes
them no matter how much the
point system is weighted in their
advantage.
Bounding back from their first game 47-30 los.s. tiie
Pre-Meds team upset the favoured St. Mike's team 58-49
to force a third game in the senior intramural finals.
Despite the fact that it was St. Patrick's day the boys didn't
have the stuff to conteml with the doctor's comeback.
The game was very close through-
out the hrs.L half with St. Mike's
up four points at the break. The
Pre-Meds team took over the four-
point lead in the second quarter
leaving the half-time score 26-22.
Sparked by Ernie Tile, who scor-
ed 23 points, Pre-Meds got better
and better as the game went on
and they led by as much as 15
points in the third quarter. They
were still up 14 points at the quar-
ter's end.
St Michael's C<^ge did their
best to fight their way into the
game during the last quarter but
they couldn't keep up to the future
doctors. McNeil and Tile of Med.-:
fouled out during the last period as
did Glynn of St. Mike's. This help-
ed the Irish to close the gap to
nine points but they couldn't get
any closer.
Iwanicki. Warne and O'Connor
were the big line for SMC hooping
13. 12 and 11 points respectively.
Magder and McNeil with 13 and 10
were the big guns for the winners
iMicklng up Tile's top effort.

Living Costs Outstrip Fee Rise
''Students at the University are
now payuig a smaller percentage of
the cost of their education than in
any of the first five post war years"
said Bud Trivett at last week's
S.A.C. meeting:,
Trivett was reporting the results
of a three month long investigation
into the recent fee rise which
raised student fees 10 to 20 percent.
The committee's report further dis-
closed that there is now a full 45
point spread between the cost of
living index and the cost of fees
calculated on the same base of
1939 equals 100.
One-twelfth of the student en-
rollment is receiving bursaries
totalling approximately $150,000. the
committee repwrt stated. In addi-
tion, theie are many bursaries not
administered by the unlvereity
Scholarships were not taken into
consideration in arriving at tblg
sum.
On the basis of a questionnaire
which was prepared and circulated
by the committee it was "assumed
that all students in need of flnan.
cial assistance have been taken
care of by buisary or loan funds'
available," Trivett reported. He aLsoi
stated that none of these funds
had been completely used up so fo^^
this year.
The committee recommended
that wider publicity of available as,
sistance be given to hlgli school
graduating classes.

group. Entrances in the contra- bum. Ben Wise and Bill F>^edman. ^JJeif entr'actes — and yet — many
puntal passages were ragged and in the technical end there were 1 others
the choir seemed unsure of itself.
Mary McNeil was uncertain in the
beautiful solo passages of "The
Omnipotence".
The second grronp of songs began
witih "The Spinning Chorus" from
Wagner's "Flying Dulrluiiaii". sung
with a eood, steady rhythmical
mov«nent by the womei\'s chorus.
But the choir, at last appearing to
relax, sustained a rich pianissimo
with such feeling in "You'll Never
Walk Alone" from Richard Rodgers'
•ilJarouser'. |
Excellently performed, the third
group comprised six folk songs of
different nations — the Negro
spiritual "Deep River", the French-
Canadian song "Dans Tous les Can-
tons", which was particularly ef-
fective, the old English "Green-
sleeves", with a baritone solo by
Dannv McCarthy, a very difficult
arraniiement of the Spanish "Mai:
guena" by Ijeucona, the old Irish
"Bendemeeres Stream" and the gay
-Russian Picnic" in which Stephen
Sonunerville sang the solo.
The final group of songs, in a
modem vein, opened with "Deep
Purple" toy Peter de Rose, in
